"Those three children of destiny..."
Lin Yuan's expression fell into brief contemplation.
What are children of destiny? Favored by the world, even drinking water could lead to serendipity. In summary, having extremely good luck, often turning misfortune into fortune and continuously growing stronger.
And these points were what Lin Yuan had finally witnessed today.
Under normal circumstances, Xiao Huo, Yang Bixin, and Shen Lang were supposed to go to Tianjian Mountain to challenge Tianjian Zi and pave their own paths toward the Tenth Realm.
If everything went smoothly, when the three of them reached Tianjian Mountain, Lin Yuan's Taiyin Primordial Spirit would descend and flatten Tianjian Mountain with a single footstep.
With the strength of the Taiyin Primordial Spirit, regardless of what methods those three children of destiny had, they were destined to die.
However, under such circumstances, for some unknown reason, those three children of destiny suddenly stopped midway, had a few words with Situ Ming, and even invited Situ Ming to go with them.
It was just this slight delay that saved the three children of destiny from a massive disaster.
One could only say that the luck of these three children of destiny was too good; you must know, compared with the three of them, Situ Ming, although also part of the younger generation, was far from their equal.
Usually, Xiao Huo and the others wouldn't even stop to talk to Situ Ming, let alone have such a prolonged conversation today.
"Is it really luck?"
"Or some kind of hint?"
Lin Yuan looked thoughtful.
Actually, with Lin Yuan's strength, if he really wanted to kill those three children of destiny,
no matter how much the world favored them, no matter how good their luck was, it wouldn't matter.
The three of them were still destined to die.
There was no chance for luck.
In the face of absolute strength, only equal strength can contend.
As for the rest? All illusions.
However,
Lin Yuan had insights into the cosmos.
He faintly felt that,
even if he killed those three children of destiny,
it wouldn't mean anything.
As long as this world existed, in several years or decades,
there would still be a fourth, a fifth, a sixth child of destiny born.
That's why just now, the Taiyin Primordial Spirit looked at those three children of destiny and said the word 'interesting.'
"Pitiable..."
Lin Yuan shook his head slightly.
Children of destiny are favored by the world.
But success by destiny, and failure by destiny.
The next line to 'When the time comes, the world exerts the same force,'
is 'When luck departs, the hero is no longer free.'
What does 'not free' mean?
The children of destiny can be seen as the children of the cosmos.
Or, perhaps, incarnations of it.
Their limit is the limit of the world.
And they can never escape the shackles of the world.
Of course, there is also the possibility that a child of destiny eventually overcomes the consciousness of the world and turns defeat into victory.
But the likelihood is too low.
Everything you have, all your methods,
are conferred by the world, are bestowed by the cosmos.
With what will you win?
"Speaking of which, in recent decades, the great forces of the world have surged, and three children of destiny have been born in succession, also influenced by me..."
Lin Yuan's thoughts started to spin, suddenly realizing.
Over the years, Lin Yuan's strength had constantly grown, breaking free from past constraints time after time.
Others might not be aware, like Situ Ming, Nuan Shu, Moyang Demon Lord and his other subordinates, at most they just realized that Lin Yuan was very strong.
But how strong he actually was, they had no concept.
Or rather, they couldn't even imagine.
However,
this world, this cosmos,
could feel the changes in Lin Yuan's strength.
Excessively powerful individuals bring a sense of crisis to the world.
And lead to the rise and fall of great fortunes, the emergence of children of destiny.
In a way,
the birth of these children of destiny is for the purpose of subduing demons,
To bring down Lin Yuan, the startlingly powerful demon.
But,
birth of children of destiny also requires time.
Even investing the power of an entire world to nurture three children of destiny, and reaching the peak of the Ninth Realm in just over twenty years, is considered incredible.
But Lin Yuan's growth rate is even more astonishing, so fast that even the children of destiny cannot compare.
This has led to a rather awkward situation.
Facing Lin Yuan, the children of destiny would have their spirits crushed, not to speak of subduing, they wouldn't even dare to harbor such thoughts.
...
"Sigh."
As Lin Yuan was contemplating,
the Taiyin Primordial Spirit before him opened his mouth slightly.
And released two streams of primordial spirit force.
These two streams of primordial spirit force began to condense upon coming out, turning into two thumb-sized figures.
It was Tianjian Zi and 'Bai Qing'er.'
The primordial spirits of other powerful beings were swallowed by the Taiyin Primordial Spirit to nourish itself without any hesitation,
But these two were held in a 'special' position in Xiahou Yuan's heart.
Of course, it wasn't any kind of good position.
"Swallow them as well," Lin Yuan said as he looked down at the two tiny figures of Tianjian Zi and Bai Qing'er.
He felt a sense of dullness for a moment.
He didn't wait for the two to awaken,
nor did he wait for them to show shocked and fearful expressions when they awoke and saw Lin Yuan.
He directly summoned the Taiyang Divine Spirit and swallowed the two primordial spirits as well.
Devouring the primordial spirits of living beings can pollute one's own soul's purity, but occasionally swallowing a few isn't a problem.
From Lin Yuan's current heights, unless he devoured billions or quadrillions of living beings in a short period of time, there would be no problem or hidden danger.
...
Having settled the grudges of his 'original self,'
Lin Yuan began contemplating the next matter.
Which was 'spreading the Dao.'
Along with his rising status in the Main World,
Lin Yuan discovered that the Main World's superpowerful beings
would spread paths of evolution related to themselves or their kin.
For instance, the Innate 'Ancient Gods' in the depths of the Cosmic Starry Skies; with their might, if they weren't willing, there wouldn't exist the Ancient God Evolution Path.
In fact, the Ancient Gods were very eager for the 'Ancient God' Evolution Path related to themselves to spread among humans.
