The No.1 Undercover in the Immortal World-Chapter 836 - 342: Run Away, Brother

The Earth Scripture was not the first being to surrender under Lin Yun’s trial by fire; before it, the Heavenly Book also was very proud, until it was scorched by Lin Yun and thereafter obeyed Lin Yun’s commands.

Just that it has been too long since they last parted, and he hadn’t seen the Book Immortal in such a long time, he actually missed it.

He had known from the beginning, he should have kept him around; perhaps he could have gained some valuable opinions by this time.

The speed with which the Earth Scripture raised the white flag was simply too fast, so much so that Lin Yun did not even get to experience the pleasure of harsh interrogation.

However, saving some time was also advantageous.

Lin Yun was still on his way to find the Flower Fairy; having reached Cloud Dream Marsh, it made sense to first head to the Flower Fairy since it was more on the way.

After that, finding Fang Yu, Lin Yu, and Jiang Chenyu, as well as Zhen Li, wouldn’t be too far away.

As a distinguished master of time management, he must plan his route carefully.

In Lin Yun’s heart, he was preparing for both possibilities; if he could handle Qing Nu, he would naturally strive to struggle; if not, he would still be able to accompany his beloved ones.

"So tell me, where is Qing Nu’s weakness? Can she be re-sealed? Or, how should I escape her pursuit?"

Lin Yun did not dare think about killing Qing Nu, firstly because he couldn’t kill her, and secondly...

Although Lin Yun did not know the whole truth, from the words spoken by Qing Nu, she must have been let down by him.

If it weren’t for his unwillingness to die at this juncture, he wouldn’t have been thinking so hard.

Actually, Lin Yun felt that sealing Qing Nu was probably not feasible, so his real goal was to figure out a way to escape from Qing Nu’s pursuit.

However, if he didn’t ask Earth Scripture about Qing Nu’s weaknesses and sealing methods, maybe Earth Scripture wouldn’t genuinely tell him how to escape from Qing Nu’s pursuit.

It was purely a bargaining tactic; he also knew that if he mentioned Qing Nu’s name outside, it would be revealed to Qing Nu, so he deliberately did so ensuring Earth Scripture wouldn’t dare to voice it, giving Lin Yun grounds to "deal with" it.

Otherwise, casually burning it without reason, the Earth Scripture would probably harbor resentment and be even less likely to help him.

Earth Scripture had no idea that Lin Yun had still so many tricks up his sleeve; after all, it was under Lin Yun’s control and could just obediently answer questions.

"Qing Nu’s weakness..."

This question really made the book’s scalp tingle.

Like Heavenly Book, Earth Scripture knew much; the difference lay in the fact that Earth Scripture only knew the past, while Heavenly Book also knew the future.

"There used to be a weakness, which was her excessive kindness; later she suddenly turned half-mad and killed all her children, and thus lost her weakness."

Lin Yun: "..."

He knew Qing Nu was a bit abnormal, but he didn’t expect her to be this abnormal.

"You mean, she killed her own children?"

Lin Yun felt a sudden pang in his heart.

Qing Nu had mentioned it before, that someone, during her pregnancy, got involved with her sister.

Could it be, because of this, she killed her own children, or perhaps, was there some accident?

Lin Yun was almost convinced that he was the husband of Qing Nu; therefore, was it because of him that Qing Nu went mad, that the children died?

If that was really the case, what face did he have to resist?

Despite being reluctant to leave Bai Jiaojiao, Snow Maiden, and many others, but if he truly made such an egregious mistake, what right did he have to think of ways to escape from Qing Nu’s hands?

After finishing, Earth Scripture discovered Lin Yun had fallen silent and speculated it was because Lin Yun saw no hope.

It didn’t know Lin Yun’s past.

On Earth Scripture, Lin Yun’s past was a blank, as if it had been erased by some existence.

Even Qing Nu was in the records; Lin Yun’s origin was definitely not simple.

Adding such profound luck, this is the reason why Earth Scripture was willing to cooperate with Lin Yun.

Now within Lin Yun’s body, Qing Nu’s vision was blocked, Earth Scripture simply spoke openly.

Previously, he had always been low-profile, knowing many secrets but not daring to speak, because there was already the precedent set by Elder Brother Heavenly Book.

Although the two marvelous books were powerful, they were powerless in front of the Innate Gods.

"All beings born because of her, ultimately die because of her."

Earth Scripture conveyed an image to Lin Yun; the sky shattered, floods covered the skies.

God led all beings to resist strenuously, but ultimately, they were all washed away by the floods.

These lives, all born from water, many were also molded by Qing Nu; it could be said, all beings are Qing Nu’s children.

Except for the Demon Race, because the Demon Race was created by Lin Yun and Zhen Li.

"As for why she suddenly acted this way, I don’t know if it was madness that led her to massacre, or the massacre that made her mad. Regarding Innate Gods, I do not know much. The reason I know about Qing Nu’s world destruction, is because I was used by the other four Great Innate Spirits to construct reincarnation after she destroyed the world.

The purpose was to help those who died in the floods attain rebirth."

Earth Scripture revealed some secrets that Lin Yun did not previously know.

Originally, the construction of reincarnation was due to that world-destroying great flood.

"Who are the other four Great Innate Gods?"

Lin Yun knew that he was getting closer and closer to the sealed history.

This question, Earth Scripture also knew.

"When Chaos first divided, there were only five Innate Gods in the world, they are Water Spirit Ancestor, Lord of the Fire Spirits, Mother Earth, Sky-Piercing Constructing Wood, Tai Bai Heavenly Emperor. The Water Spirit Ancestor is Qing, Lord of the Fire Spirits is Yun, Mother Earth is Li, Sky-Piercing Constructing Wood is Lin, Tai Bai Heavenly Emperor is Hao."

When Earth Scripture mentioned these names, there was also a kind of probe.

He felt very safe here, but he wasn’t very clear on how safe it actually was, hence, he mentioned each of the five Great Innate Spirits.

There was no reaction after he stated their names, so he further risked, er, probed, and found that nothing happened even after saying their true names.

Maybe, we better not leave here, right!

Where could be safer than here!

After listening to Earth Scripture, much of the fog before Lin Yun’s eyes dissipated.

The five Innate Gods mentioned by Earth Scripture each correspond to one of the Five Elements.

And integrating current information, Zhen Li should be Mother Earth, Mother Earth is Li, this is one of the clues.

Lin Yiyi also mentioned it, a great catastrophe occurred, the sky shattered, the world fell apart, Zhen Li transformed her own body into the new continent.

This is probably something only Mother Earth could do!

Originally, Lin Yun deduced that he should be the Lord of the Fire Spirits, as his fire has always been the most potent from the beginning to the end.

However, upon hearing that Sky-Piercing Constructing Wood is Lin, Lin Yun became a bit confused.

This represents that the names of the wood and fire gods, added up, coincidentally is his current name.

Is this a coincidence, or is there a deeper mystery?

Lin Yun couldn’t figure it out now, but the clues were gradually becoming clear.

After Earth Scripture finished talking about Qing Nu’s weaknesses, he began to discuss the method to seal Qing Nu.

"In fact, Qing Nu has already been sealed by the four gods, you are unable to seal her a second time. And as long as there is water, she can manifest herself. So, I might as well tell you how to escape..."
