The fortune telling was so accurate that I accidentally accumulated a huge amount of merit!

Chapter 990 Yes, it's about mutual restraint!

Although Wu Tong hadn't said anything yet, Yun Ran could almost foresee what would happen next.

Sure enough, Wu Tong then recounted what happened next.

"With the temple's lineage severed and the power of faith gone, even the power of the divine cauldron will weaken..."

Yun Ran put down her teacup, her eyes revealing a cold, clear-eyed glint.

Even Lord Wuyun probably never imagined that it was because he wanted to save humanity and stop the disaster he had foreseen.

Ultimately, it was this language that caused the temple's lineage to be severed.

It also allows those who vie for power and profit to wield their power like a chicken feather, wantonly slaughtering those sentient beings.

Yunran did not deny that some demons and monsters were born evil and increased their cultivation by doing bad things.

However, among them are also some spirits who are down-to-earth and wholeheartedly want to walk the righteous path.

But because of this one piece of language, these innocent creatures have become someone else's medals of honor.

The causes and effects involved here are simply too numerous to count.

The reason why the most powerful high priest in the temple's history, Lord Wu Yun, died so quickly was probably partly due to this.

By comparing what Wu Tong knew with what Yun Ran knew, the cause and effect of the matter were finally clarified.

Yunran looked at Wutong: "Do you know where this divine cauldron was found?"

Yunran didn't intend to let Wutong answer this question, but continued talking.

After Yunran finished recounting what Longling and the others had seen,

Then he said calmly, "You probably never dreamed that the monster that can devour all living beings is actually a Gu worm bred from the resentment of those who died tragically, fighting each other."

Wu Tong stared wide-eyed in disbelief.

He never imagined that Lord Wuyun had foreseen all of this, yet was also the source of it all.

This made Wu Tong's belief waver at this moment.

His chest heaved violently, and countless voices seemed to be interfering with his reason, preventing him from calming down quickly.

But Yunran didn't care about his feelings.

"This all makes for a perfect closed loop, huh~"

Yunran's tone remained indifferent, yet it carried a hint of irony, as if fate were cruelly cruel.

The general outline of the matter has been clarified, but there is still one thing that Yunran is puzzled by.

That is, why is the Divine Cauldron placed together with that monster jar, and who did all this?

And how did the power of the rules of time end up with the tree spirit?

Once she understood all this, Yunran felt that she might be qualified to negotiate with the people of the Xuan Master Association in this world.

After a long while, Wu Tong finally suppressed the countless thoughts in his mind.

"Thank you, fellow Taoist, for clarifying my doubts."

Yunran nodded, then picked up her teacup, indicating that she was seeing the guest out.

Wu Tong realized that Yun Ran had no intention of continuing to talk to him, so he immediately stood up and said that he would go out first.

Once Yun Ran was alone in the living room, she took out a communication talisman and contacted Long Ling.

Long Ling and Xuan Chu have returned to the place where the Xuan Masters of this town are staying.

Noticing that Yunran had sent him a telepathic message, Long Ling instructed Xuan Chu to keep an eye on the surroundings and prevent anyone from getting close.

Xuan Chu glanced at Long Ling. If it weren't for the fact that he had said he was Long Ling's senior brother earlier, he would have been in the wrong.

Now, they would definitely roll their eyes at Long Ling for giving such a matter-of-fact order.

Is he Long Ling's lackey? Why is he made to guard the gate?

After Long Ling took out the communication talisman, Yun Ran's voice came through.

When Long Ling finished listening to Yun Ran's latest discovery, he was completely at a loss.

They were speechless with disbelief. Weren't they here to find the Heavenly Book? How did they run into such a deadly situation?
Now, he seems to believe that Yunran might really be having some bad luck.

Otherwise, why do I always encounter these kinds of unpleasant things that others might not experience in hundreds of years?

Long Ling took a deep breath, trying her best to calm herself down: I won't get angry, I won't get angry, getting angry can easily lead to serious illness...

When Xuan Chu returned, he was puzzled to see Long Ling looking like she was about to burst into flames.

"What is it that Yunran said that made you so anxious and agitated, as if you've encountered something thorny?"

Long Ling glared at Xuan Chu, but this time he didn't retort directly, because he was neither in the mood nor had the energy.

He immediately told her what Yunran had told him before.

Xuan Chu: ...

He said that the guy who was being chased and struck by the Heavenly Dao, who was almost turned to ashes, really did have something special about him.

"Luckily, I'm not the kind of person who causes trouble. Otherwise, if I encountered someone like Yun Ran who could kick things up wherever he went, I probably would have really collapsed."

At this point, Long Ling still has the leisure to empathize with those troublemakers; that's truly something else.

"You still have the mood to joke? Yunran sent us a message to find out how the divine cauldron and that monster jar ended up together."

This was definitely done by human intervention; otherwise, a divine cauldron and a monstrous altar, two mutually restraining objects, could not possibly be placed together!

As he was speaking, Xuan Chu suddenly froze.

"Mutual restraint!"

Seeing that Xuan Chu seemed to have been hit by a spell, Long Ling suddenly realized something.

Yes, it's about mutual restraint!

Is it possible that someone knew the sins they had committed were too grave and the karmic consequences too immense, so they deliberately used the divine cauldron to suppress them?
If their suspicions are true, then the person who did this is truly ruthless.

A single wrong thought created a monster capable of destroying the world.

Such a powerful causal relationship, without special means of concealment, would not only bring misfortune upon the person who did it, but also their descendants.

What Long Ling could think of, Xuan Chu could also think of, and of course, Yun Ran, who relayed the message to them, could certainly think of it as well.

This made Long Ling's eyes light up immediately: "So, Yun Ran wants us to investigate whether there is any Xuanmen family whose entire clan has been wiped out overnight?"
If not, then it's very likely that those people obtained some method from the celestial book to conceal heavenly secrets and evade karmic consequences!

Thinking of this, the hairs on Long Ling's arms stood on end; this was terrifying.

Wow, this guy is really ruthless! No one with the right mindset could accomplish something like this!
