Ancestor Hui had done the same. To scheme against the Eternal Clan and turn humanity's fortunes around, he had sacrificed his own son—and in the end, himself as well.

Humanity's destiny, its victory, was built on the sacrifices of people like them.

"Lord Lu, help me pass a message to Wu Tian." Undying God looked at Lu Yin. During the battle at Primordial City, he had deliberately avoided Wu Tian and chosen the Graveyard Keeper from the Burial Grounds as his opponent. Perhaps he hadn't known how to face Wu Tian. Or perhaps he simply hadn't wanted to.

"I don't owe him anything anymore, and he doesn't owe me. Even if I weren't imprisoned in the Third Eryu, I wouldn't fight to the death for humanity against the Eternal Clan. What does humanity's fate have to do with me?" With that, his body burst apart, turning into an immortal seed that floated before Lu Yin.

Lu Yin looked at the seed. No one could know what might have happened if things had gone differently. Undying God, Wu Xing, and Wu Tian had wanted him to wake up. From his own perspective, he had been clearer-eyed than anyone.

He caught the seed and crushed it. Undying God would never appear again.

Lu Yin looked into the distance. Black Wushen had escaped, and Xu Jin was still out there.

Far away, an eyeball shifted inside a cloud of darkness. That was Xu Jin.

"I've been wondering: why didn't you use True God Free Law on the battlefield at Primordial City?" Lu Yin asked.

Xu Jin's eyeball shifted. The cloud turned and fled. He still wanted to live. As long as his seed remained intact, he could revive, and there was no way he could win a fight against Lu Yin now.
