The Sequence String

Lu Yin stopped, puzzled. "Bottom line?"

Mu Ji's lips curled. "Have you heard of the Sequence String?"

Lu Yin's gaze shifted. Ancestor Lu Yuan had mentioned the Sequence String. It was connected to White Cloud City, but they had said little, afraid it might affect his cultivation.

"What, you don't believe me? Heh. At our level, this is common knowledge. Didn't Xi Zu tell you? Every True God Guard captain knows about it." Mu Ji smiled.

Lu Yin was puzzled. "If they knew that destroying the Sequence String connection points could cause countless parallel space-times to collapse, White Cloud City should have stopped them long ago. The humans, too. Why only act now?"

Mu Ji scoffed. "Because of the balance."
