Darkness Origin instantly stumped Lu Ye with the question.
"What do you mean?" Lu Ye's brows furrowed tightly, enough to practically trap flies.
"What do I mean? After I recognize you as my master, when I appear by your side, I can't possibly remain as a black mist. So, it's more suitable to directly transform into a girl's form. What type of girl do you like, one that looks pleasing to the eye? I can just directly transform into that, can't I?"
Darkness Origin was direct and straightforward, without the slightest intention of concealing its thoughts.
"No need, just stay like this. I'm allergic to women right now!"
Of course, Lu Ye wouldn't let Darkness Origin turn into a girl. Shen Xitong and Little Heavenly Dao turning into girls was already giving Lu Ye non-stop headaches.
For instance, if he had to hit them, their faces were hard to hit, their chests were hard to hit, this was hard to hit, that was hard to hit.
It would be better to turn into a man. If they made him angry, one old punch, and who cares where it lands! Wherever it hits, you deserve it!
Darkness Origin thought for a moment.
Alright, let's not consider it for now. Anyway, I can change anytime.
It felt this state was quite good. It wasn't a living being and had no fixed appearance.
Directly customizing it based on Lu Ye's preference, completely without any flaws, wouldn't # NΠΎvΠ΅light # that be wonderful?
"So, how should we design a plan so you can get the resources given by Reincarnation Heavenly Lord and have half of my energy recognize you as master?"
Lu Ye began to ponder.
At this moment, Darkness Origin was incredibly relaxed!
It directly handed the problem over to Lu Ye, letting Lu Ye think.
There was absolutely no need to worry about failure. When something doesn't require worrying about failure, and you even fear success, the difficulty of that matter directly drops to the lowest point.
After all, people always say, "At worst, this matter will just fail, right?"
But you never hear anyone say, "At worst, this matter will succeed."
Darkness Origin had never been this relaxed before.
"What do you think of Forget-Love Immortal Palace?" Lu Ye asked.
"Forget-Love Immortal Palace? That's right. Yin Qingcheng plotted against you. If Forget-Love Immortal Palace hadn't helped and been willing to give her that jade pendant, the power of Relentless Sage wouldn't have been activated!"
Lu Ye nodded.
That's how it is.
"When the time comes, I will go to Forget-Love Immortal Palace to demand an explanation. First, I'll fight a battle, then pretend to be defeated and leave. When I leave, I'll make it clear I won't let the matter rest. At that time, you help Forget-Love Immortal Palace by sending them a grand formation called the Seven Emotions Guiding God Formation. This formation is powerful, and they definitely won't suspect anything."
"You want to act against Forget-Love Immortal Palace?" Darkness Origin asked.
Lu Ye nodded calmly.
If the other party attacked him, could he not retaliate? There was no such logic.
"But aren't you worried about Forget-Love Immortal Revered?" Darkness Origin asked.
"Did Forget-Love Immortal Revered attack me in the previous life?" Lu Ye asked.
"It seems... he didn't?"
Forget-Love Immortal Revered's strength wasn't actually that great. He had only recently advanced to the Heavenly Venerable Realm, so there was no reason for him to attack Lu Ye in the previous life.
Because even if Lu Ye failed his Crossing Tribulation to become a Saint, it wouldn't be his turn to become a Saint. If Lu Ye succeeded in his Crossing Tribulation, and he participated, he would certainly die.
The risk and reward were not proportional.
"If I worried about this and worried about that, tell me, in these Nine Heavens, are there any people I can still act against?" Lu Ye's gaze was cold.
Being hesitant and overcautious was never Lu Ye's style.
Whoever provoked him, died!
If he couldn't kill them, he would cultivate until he reached the level where he could, and then go kill them.
Forget-Love Immortal Revered was in the Ninth Heaven. If he was still hesitant and timid even with the laws left behind by the Nine Heavens Great Sage still existing, what kind of cultivation was he doing? He might as well go home and farm.
The laws set by the Nine Heavens Great Sage were precisely so you wouldn't fear others' backgrounds.
Yet, he somehow didn't remember the incident of being spawn-camped.
But there was nothing he could do. Nine Heavens Great Sage hadn't experienced such a thing.
Lu Ye and Darkness Origin went over the steps in detail.
Rest assured, guaranteed to fail!
"Oh right, what is the eighth type of poison I was afflicted with?" Lu Ye asked at this moment.
Darkness Origin thought for a moment.
"Even I don't know about that one. She deliberately hid it. I'm afraid only An Li herself knows. But if my guess is correct, it should still be somewhat related to the clan behind An Li," Darkness Origin said.
"Currently, An Li's overall strength isn't strong yet, so she doesn't dare to contact that clan."
Even Darkness Origin didn't know? Was it that mysterious?
Lu Ye couldn't help but find it a bit strange.
"Tell me in detail how you two got together in the previous life," Lu Ye said.
Talking about this kind of thing immediately piqued Darkness Origin's interest.
"At first, we hadn't even met yet. I remember the first time I ran into you, you were still fighting a great battle with Heavenly Gate. Heavenly Gate was miserable."
Lu Ye remembered that time. Actually, that great battle with Heavenly Gate was fake. His goal at the time had already fallen upon the Heavenly Dao, and he was starting to prepare to seize the Heavenly Dao for the System.
"Ahem, let's not talk about the enmity with Heavenly Gate from the previous life in this life."
"Huh? That's not right. You fought Heavenly Gate so hard in the previous life that their brains were spilling out. Then you and Heavenly Dao should also be in an adversarial relationship. Why is Heavenly Dao helping you so much in this life?" Darkness Origin reacted, feeling a bit puzzled.
"The two of us just a few days ago beat your brains out, and now aren't you still by my side talking to me?" Lu Ye said as if it were obvious.
Darkness Origin thought about it and realized he was right.
"That time I asked you to join me so we could take on Heavenly Dao together, but you didn't agree. We weren't enemies at that time, right?"
Lu Ye nodded. Indeed, they weren't enemies.
"Later, I ignited the Daoist Incense, triggering a war across the entire Nine Heavens, and you came over to fight me."
"That was the first time we started forming enmity. After the Daoist Incense ended, my plan failed, and naturally, I couldn't just let it go. I sought you out several more times and was defeated by you again, and the enmity between us also grew deeper and deeper."
"By the time you reached the Quasi-Emperor Realm, an old immortal within me really couldn't hold on anymore, so he brazenly launched the Darkness Upheaval."
"You broke through to the Great Emperor Realm and started frantically killing those old immortals, fighting for a long time."
"As your strength grew stronger and stronger, that group of old immortals within me finally clearly felt they were no match for you and could only fall back into slumber."
"I absolutely hated you back then, gnashing my teeth. The madness of a Celestial Venerable before their demise, although it didn't break the laws of the Nine Heavens Great Sage, it did start to break through the barriers above the Fifth Heaven."
"Originally, I could have significantly increased my strength again, but you alone ruined it."
"Later, An Li found me and said she had a way to pull you down from the Heavenly Venerable Realm and needed my help. At that time, I thought, no matter who was fighting Nine Lives, I, Darkness Origin, definitely had to help out."
"But I wasn't the main force! What I did was entirely helping An Li as a subordinate, watching her contact her mother clan and also contact a mysterious existence. At first, I didn't know who this mysterious existence was, but later I felt it was Reincarnation Heavenly Lord. Thinking of getting a piece of the action, I stole the Reincarnation Obsession."
"An Li pulling me in was entirely to ensure her safety. After all, you should know how crazy her mother clan is."
