Upon hearing Lin Yu's threat, the water droplet man paused slightly, and then actually stopped.

While running, the water droplet-like person's body resembles a flowing stream of water. When it stops, its body slowly transforms from the shape of flowing water back into the shape of a human, with its limbs gradually becoming clearer.

Seeing that the water droplet person had stopped, Lin Yu also stopped to maintain a relatively safe distance from them.

The water droplet-like figure put his hands on his hips and chuckled loudly, his voice filled with sarcasm.

"Can't escape your grasp? What kind of pipe dream are you having?"

Even if I gave you a half-incense stick's worth of time, you still might not be able to catch up with me!

"You have absolutely no right to negotiate with me!" the water droplet man said aggressively.

Lin Yu didn't say anything, but just looked at the water droplet man thoughtfully.

Seeing Lin Yu remain silent, the water droplet-like figure sneered and then said, "Do you really think I can't see through you? You just used another fragment of the Heaven-Mending Fragment to lure me out."

"Given your stupidity, you probably think that with my wisdom, I couldn't possibly see through such a simple scheme!"

"Hahaha, let me be kind and tell you, from the very beginning I knew it was just a trap. Even so, I still showed myself."

"Because I know that with your speed, you simply can't catch up with me!"

The water droplet man laughed heartily as he spoke, looking quite pleased with himself.

Lin Yu looked at the laughing water droplet man, feeling somewhat speechless. He thought to himself, "The water droplet man has already said all that, so what's the point of me saying anything?"

However, the water droplet-shaped figure didn't seem to expect a reply from Lin Yu, and simply spoke again on its own.

"This is what you call humanity—arrogant and conceited, thinking yourself the pinnacle of all creation, capable of trampling other creatures underfoot!"

"You didn't expect this outcome, did you? Hahaha, it's absolutely hilarious!"

"Once I've truly completed this transformation, I'll reign supreme in this world and show you humans who truly is the king of all things!"

Faced with the arrogant appearance of the water droplet man, Lin Yu remained quite calm and was not provoked at all. In fact, he was not even disturbed.

He simply watched the water droplet man calmly, listened to his words, and observed his expression.

From his observations over this period, Lin Yu could clearly see that the water droplet people seemed quite dissatisfied with the entire human race.

This kind of plot wouldn't be surprising if it were any other "villain," but in this fantasy world, it makes one think twice.

This fantasy world isn't just populated by human cultivators; it has all sorts of races, it's just that there are more human cultivators.

Even so, ordinary magical artifacts would not harbor such malice towards humans.

Just like the fragment of the sky-mending structure that was in the Phoenix Sea before, although it had gone through a very long period of time, the number of human cultivators who had seen it was probably very small.

However, the fragment of the Heaven-Mending Stone in the Netherworld Immortal Realm is currently showing great malice towards human cultivators, which is something worth noting.

"Perhaps it's because many conflicts in the Netherworld Immortal Realm originated from human cultivators."

"This land is filled with the wronged souls of too many human cultivators. The resentment these human cultivators harbored towards other human cultivators may have influenced the consciousness of this fragment of the Heaven-Mending Stone."

Thinking about this, Lin Yu felt a headache coming on. It seemed that the fragment of the Heaven-Mending Stone had been greatly affected.

The power of the Heaven-Mending Fragments comes from the Heaven-Mending Stone, and their inherent properties are extremely powerful.

An overwhelming force is relatively easy to deal with if it is in an unconscious form, but if it has its own consciousness and is negatively influenced, then it's in serious trouble.

Originally, Lin Yu, out of goodwill, did not want to be too harsh on the fragment of the Heaven-Mending Sword, but looking at the current situation, it seems that he has no choice but to act now.

However, the current state of the fragments that mended the heavens left Lin Yu somewhat puzzled.

If I hadn't inadvertently entered this era and intervened, there's no doubt that the power of this fragment of the Heaven-Mending Stone would have developed even stronger.

The power of this fragment of the Heaven-Mending Stone has now surpassed that of most living beings and cultivators.

If this continues to develop, perhaps the cultivators of this world really won't be able to do anything with these fragments of the Heaven-Mending Stone.

"But things have developed to this point, which is far too abnormal! Could it be that the great calamity that will destroy the world in the future is caused by the fragments of the sky-mending stones?"

Lin Yu suddenly had another guess. The cause of the cataclysmic disaster of this era was already shrouded in mystery, because the destruction was so sudden that almost no information had been passed down.

Even though cultivators from the Three Thousand Immortal Realms era had various speculations about the cataclysmic calamity of the Dao Qi era, they were just speculations and could not be sure what really happened.

Therefore, most cultivators in the Three Thousand Immortal Realms era were completely unaware of the causes and consequences of the cataclysmic calamity. Even Lin Yu only vaguely knew that it was related to some powerful force.

Based on the information he had seen before, Lin Yu guessed that the cataclysmic disaster was related to that dark force.

But seeing the enormous dark consciousness of this fragment of the Heaven-Mending Fragment today, Lin Yu suddenly realized that perhaps this fragment of the Heaven-Mending Fragment is intricately related to that dark power!

In any case, the demise of the Daoqi era was far too sudden.

Lin Yu often felt that if the fragments of the Sky-Mending Stone were combined to form the Sky-Mending Stone and unleashed their full power, although they might not have been able to stop the era from ending, they certainly wouldn't have made the end so swift!

Given enough time, even if the Dao Qi era were to perish, more cultivators from this era would survive, unlike in the Three Thousand Immortal Realms era.

Moreover, the more cultivators from the previous era remain, the more they can help the new era avoid risks and prevent this era from entering another cataclysmic disaster.

"Perhaps these fragments of the Heaven-Mending Stone are the source of that dark power." Lin Yu suddenly had a guess.

This idea was clearly ahead of its time; if it weren't for his past experiences, Lin Yu certainly wouldn't have made such a guess.

Moreover, many of these experiences were unique to Lin Yu.

However, in the eyes of the water droplet-like figure, Lin Yu was rendered speechless by his words.
