"Disciple, do you know what the great trend is?"
In the Food God City, the Heavenly Calculation King, Lv Susu, seemed completely unaware of the changes outside, and meticulously explained to Li Qingyun.
"The great trend is heaven and earth."
"Those who follow the trend, even in adversity, can turn the tide unexpectedly."
"Those who go against the trend face a lifetime of tribulations, and can end up with everyone turning against them and dying without a cause, even if they are kind-hearted."
"Master, we humans... we follow the trend, right?"
Li Qingyun cautiously asked.
He had been studying under Lv Susu for many years, and although his ability grew rapidly, easily surpassing the level 3 to level 4 and level 6 to level 7 milestones,
this was the first time in her memory that her master explained the relationship between the great trend of the world and the minor trends of individuals.
Lv Susu shook her head and said.
"Our presence in the Exotic Battlefield was an accident."
"But the gentleman keeps improving through self-reliance."
"A gentleman carries things with great virtue."
"We humans neither conform to the trend nor act against it."
"But that was the trend a thousand years ago, different from the current trend."
"Use the power of the trend to do things against the trend."
"With a heart against the trend, hold heaven and earth in your hand."
Lv Susu had always given Li Qingyun a feeling of being indifferent to worldly struggles.
But at this moment, as she spoke, Li Qingyun felt a hint of dominance from her, as if she was unrivaled between heaven and earth.
Is this still the usual Heavenly Calculation King, Lv Susu?
Food God City, West Suburb.
The sky suddenly changed color, with ominous winds and ghostly cries.
Xing Fang released her Ghost Face Domain, and at this moment, in Lu Lin’s view, she looked more like a villain than those Alien Races.
But he only thought this in his heart.
Swords have no morality.
Used righteously, they become righteous.
Used wickedly, they become wicked.
"Hahaha, what a ghost-faced Human Race. Seeing you today, it’s indeed... exaggerated."
"If you were smart, you’d know that the current situation is unfavorable for your Human Race."
"We, the Eight Great Other Races, have gathered a hundred Ninth Level Star Soldiers here, among them more than a dozen peak Star Soldiers."
"Ghost Face, do you think you can go against the trend?"
Xing Fang turned to look.
Only to see an Alien Race, completely charred black as if burned, slowly flying over in a wheelchair.
"Mountain Fire Clan, Xing Huo?"
"I didn’t expect the only one in the Alien Races capable of deducing heaven’s secrets to be invited here. It seems, today, this old woman is inescapably doomed?"
Xing Fang spoke seriously, yet her tone was unusually relaxed.
As if her life was not important at all.
"Ghost Face, you can’t still be hoping on those Level 9 experts in Chongnuo City, can you?"
"To tell you the truth, the Food God has been entangled by the Three Star Generals of our Extraordinary Species, how many Level 9 experts can you bring?"
"Even if they bring a lot, what’s the use?"
Xing Huo, known as the most renowned predictor among the Eight Races of the Alien Race.
This time, even he came, showing the importance the Eight Races place on Lu Lin.
"Whether it’s useful or not isn’t for a mere Seventh Level Alien Race like you to decide."
Just as those words were spoken, a towering figure slowly coalesced in the sky.
"Heaven-splitting Hand, Duan Ya."
Some Alien Races couldn’t help exclaiming.
"Hehe, it seems that even though I haven’t come out in a long time, many still know me, huh."
"Xing Fang, how about it, I didn’t come too late, right?"
Duan Ya said with a smile.
Xing Fang nodded. Although she didn’t speak, she relaxed a lot inside.
"You say you didn’t come late, can’t you see that Old Xing had to even use the Ghost Face Domain?"
"If we had delayed any longer, perhaps Old Xing would have killed all the garbage present, and we wouldn’t have had a chance to act."
Another voice rang out.
Xing Fang even showed a hint of a smile on her face.
"Little Medical Fairy, Zhu Henian."
Some recognizing Alien Races exclaimed in surprise.
Never mind Little Medical Fairy’s good-natured appearance, for he possessed both the benevolent heart to save lives and the crafty skill to take them.
Many Alien Races once found themselves unable to live or die under his hands.
Though Xing Fang and Duan Ya were terrifying, at most they would kill someone when fierce.
But with Little Medical Fairy, in his presence, ordinary people couldn’t even die if they wanted to.
Since these Level 9 Martial Artists appeared, it seemed as if Lu Lin and they had been forgotten.
Watching those bosses converse above, Lu Lin also had some thoughts in his heart.
It was obvious the Alien Race wanted his life.
He was the focus of the Alien Race’s conquest.
But what if he suddenly disappeared at this moment.
Don’t worry, this disappearance doesn’t mean Lu Lin escapes, but rather... the Soul Sealing Space Crystal.
He could completely hide himself along with Bai Buyi and others inside the Soul Sealing Space Crystal.
The ninth-level Alien Star Soldiers could come outside Food God City so brazenly, their greatest confidence was that Food God Liu Han was entangled by three Alien Star Generals, unable to break free for a while.
If the time drags on, the Food God will definitely return here. By then, if these alien races don’t leave, they’re just asking for death.
Lu Lin’s Storage Ring contains food and water, so if they spend time, staying inside the Soul Sealing Space Crystal for ten days to half a month wouldn’t be a problem.
If that’s the case, should we give it a try?
Lu Lin thought and suddenly noticed that the defense formations outside were about to dissipate.
Just now the reason these ninth-level bosses were all talk.
Was because they tried it and couldn’t break Lu Lin’s defense capabilities.
If they forcibly barged in, they might be injured by Lu Lin’s prepared attacks and trap talismans.
A mere fourth-level martial artist, although important, isn’t worth risking their lives.
Anyway, from these alien races’ point of view, they’re in the superior position right now.
Lu Lin’s heart tightened, the defense formation and talismans protecting him only had about ten minutes left at most.
If by then he doesn’t want to spark a great war, he must recharge the formation.
Currently, there are only three veteran ninth-level martial artists on the human side.
The alien races claim to have ten, but Lu Lin only sees three.
If comparing strength, even if Xing Fang and another ninth-level can block the three from the opposite side, there are still a hundred or so ninth-level aliens left.
No, he can’t lightly start a battle.
Wait a bit, until the humans have more strong individuals.
Lu Lin quietly calculated in his heart.
But didn’t notice the Tian Dayin sisters approaching his side.
"Master, the humans won’t send anyone else."
"The Eight Great Other Races currently have 112 ordinary ninth-level, seven veteran ninth-level, the rest are hiding and ready to support at any time."
"Master, my sister and I can’t see the future."
"The heavens’ mechanism here is chaotic, seemingly disrupted by skilled individuals."
The sisters spoke one after the other, unknowingly revealing their words to Xing Huo of the Mountain Fire Alien Race.
Xing Huo hovered, sitting in a wheelchair, slowly turning the wheels with his hands, approaching Xing Fang and others.
Yet, he didn’t look at Xing Fang, but instead laughed towards Lu Lin and said,
"Lu Lin, the sisters beside you are quite interesting."
"We Extraordinary Species have never been good at divining the heavens’ mechanism, hand over these two Yanliu Clan girls to me."
"They are rare good seedlings."
Lu Lin heard Xing Huo’s words, raising a hand to stop the Tian Da sisters from wanting to argue.
Instead, he asked cheerfully, "This one, Senior Hei."
Even though Lu Lin inwardly wished he could tear Xing Huo apart, his face remained calm and composed.
"I’m not Senior Hei, I am Xing Huo, the most top-notch in divining the heavens’ mechanism among the Extraordinary Eight Races."
"Alright, Senior Hei."
"It’s said you’re best at divining, why didn’t you foresee the existence of these sisters earlier?"
Xing Huo didn’t get angry, he smiled to Lu Lin and said, "Earlier, I foresaw that if I die, my Extraordinary Clan would be suppressed by the Human Federation."
"I’ve long wished to find one or two disciples to teach, but they were all some worthless trash, unworthy to use."
"Yet, I have one chance in my life to defy fate, not only can I soar directly into the Star General Realm, but also accept fine disciples, continuing my legacy."
"How about it, Lu Lin, send these two girls out to me."
"Afterwards, as you return to the Holy Path, if you succeed, I’ll request from the ten Gods of the Alliance to spare your life."
"Though you needn’t thank me, this is my duty for leaking the heavens’ secrets."
"Please, stop talking."
Lu Lin looked at the increasingly faint defense shield, standing tall and proud as he spoke.
"I, Lu Lin, living as a Federation person, dying as a dead Federation person,"
"Indecisive and betraying the Humans, I, Lu Lin, could never do such a thing."
"Regarding Senior Hei’s divining skills, I, the junior, do greatly admire them."
Xing Huo flashed a hint of pride on his face, "Haha, it seems even a human youngster like you knows of my fame, that’s not bad, haha."
"No, Senior Hei, don’t be anxious."
Lu Lin grabbed a handful of defense and trap attack talismans from his Storage Ring and scattered them.
Instantly, countless formations enveloped Lu Lin and others tightly once more.
Xing Huo’s face showed a hint of disappointment.
He originally intended to use words to paralyze Lu Lin, making him forget to set up defenses.
Unexpectedly, this kid was so cautious, just seeing him take a few steps forward, he set up the defense formation again.
His calculations fell through.
"Senior Hei, you previously foresaw that after you die, there would be no one in the alien races skilled at divining and tilting the heavens’ mechanism, that’s certain."
"Tian Dayin and Tian Dalan are now my servants, as long as I, Lu Lin, live one day, your alien races will never have successors."
"Alien races have no one, making a nobody famous."
"Did you not foresee that you would meet your end here today?"
"Boy, you’re insolent."
This remark seemed to touch a sore spot in Xing Huo, he stood directly from his wheelchair, walked to the front of Lu Lin’s defense shield and cursed loudly.
"I have long been well-regarded in the Extraordinary One Clan, how can a brat like you critique."
Lu Lin watched his agitated manner but didn’t explain, instead pointed to Xing Huo’s back.
"Senior Hei, turn around and see who that is!"
