Lu Yin knew that fishing methods included stepping stones, Original Treasures, Evil Thieves, portals, First Line of Heaven, and so on. He never expected there to be fake Eternal Life Realm beings, too.
The Mud Water Kingdom specialized in fishing for civilizations with Eternal Life Realm beings. Its civilization was downright repulsive, yet exceptionally powerful.
According to the intelligence Eight Colors had given him, the Mud Water Kingdom had the Strongest Eight Elders. They were true Eternal Life Realm beings of the Mud Water Kingdom—and Eternal Life Realm beings who had surpassed the Eternal Life Realm itself. They recorded Eternal Life Realm beings within their civilization, turning them into Civilization Heavy Artifacts. They would not be easy to deal with.
Lu Yin reviewed the intelligence he had seen, then fixed his gaze on Mud Doll and slowly said, "You told me before that you were just traveling around the Cubic Distance, looking for civilizations to record so you could protect yourself, right?"
Only a small part of Mud Doll remained after the Three Heavens Sword Intent had slashed through him. He looked wretched. "Yes. Let me go. I'm no threat to you."
Lu Yin crouched and stared at the mud. "Mud Doll."
The mud trembled. Though it had no eyes, it clearly looked at Lu Yin in shock. "How do you know?"
"The Mud Water Kingdom, Mud Doll, the Eight Elders, causality designation, Civilization Heavy Artifacts."
"Your civilization can be summed up in sixteen words."
"A civilization as a vessel, its legacy transformed into artifacts, its beliefs as its driving force, its designations absolute."
The mud wriggled, its voice full of shock. "You come from a Fishing Civilization. You've fought against the Mud Water Kingdom before. Otherwise, there's no way you'd know so much."
Lu Yin stared at the mud.
