After leaving the Netherworld, Lu Yang looked composed as he took a single step into the vast, murky cosmos. Before his eyes stretched an enormous net that blanketed Heaven and Earth.
The Karmic Net.
The World Honored One's domain, once the River of Time, recorded the past, revealed the future, and inscribed the present. Countless karmic threads converged within it, forming endless scenes.
Once upon a time, he too had walked through this cosmos, but he had been wretched beyond measure—hiding and skulking, not daring to reveal himself, exhausting nearly every ounce of strength merely to evade Chu Sheng's pursuit. But now, things were different. He stood openly and upright, utterly unconcerned by the faint gaze Chu Sheng cast his way.
What was he planning to do?
At this moment, even the World Honored One within the Netherworld was somewhat stunned. He had not expected Lu Yang to enter the Karmic Net so easily, as though he were deeply versed in this path.
Is he going to Alter Cause, Change Effect, and bring Danding back to life?
Could it be done?
The moment the thought arose, the answer had already flashed through the World Honored One's mind: of course it could! Ever since he had attained [Karma], had he not entertained similar thoughts himself?
The reason he had been unable to revive Danding until now was simple when traced back to its root: Danding had been personally slain by Chu Sheng back then. His soul had been destroyed, his true spirit shattered, and his karma had become deeply entangled with Chu Sheng's, making it almost impossible to reverse. To revive him, there was no way around Chu Sheng.
If Chu Sheng did not agree, the karma of Danding's death could not be changed.
But now, things were different.
