The Immortal King, enraged by significant losses, tasks the Eastern War God with investigating the secret realm failure. The Eastern War God receives the Immortal King Order, granting him supreme authority to resolve the matter. He then dispatches the Mo Family Brothers to investigate Star 876, instructing them to prioritize safety, but they are tempted by the perceived easy target they find.

The Mo Family Brothers indeed recognize Lin Yi’s strength and talent, but they are more certain of one thing: power needs time to settle.

With Lin Yi’s exaggerated Divine Power Level, it indicates that his background is not simple.

To have such strength at this age, it is likely that he’s the young master of a certain divine faction, who used considerable resources to achieve this. In the Mo Family Brothers’ view, such a person’s foundation is unstable and their power is superficial, posing no real threat.

On the entire Star 876, aside from this young man, there are no other beings. It seems they should be able to extract some valuable intelligence from this guy.

The Mo Family Brothers’ thinking is indeed somewhat flawed; the Eastern War God really hasn’t told them how many losses occurred on Star 876.

However, from the fact that the Eastern War God could obtain the Immortal King’s Order, it’s clear that something significant happened on Star 876, combined with his anxious attitude, leading to the easy deduction that the Immortal King’s faction suffered huge losses on this planet.

The Eastern War God emphasized repeatedly and advised caution, prioritizing survival. With such warnings, one should act with utmost caution, even when facing juniors with lesser strength.

No one expected the Mo Family Brothers to be so reckless; the moment they saw Lin Yi, they flew straight towards him, landing flamboyantly in front of Lin Yi.

Damn, so fast?

Lin Yi was checking his information when, suddenly, two members of the Immortal King faction landed in front of him, catching him by surprise.

How could he instantly recognize them as members of the Immortal King faction? Credit goes to the skill "Touch of Reincarnation."

While absorbing the divine power, Lin Yi simultaneously read the memories of nearly a hundred Upper-Rank Gods, allowing him to accurately and swiftly discern their identities.

"Kid, are you with Dark Rising? Among All Celestial Divine Beings, you don’t seem to be one of them."

The playful tone in their words was obvious, and Lin Yi easily analyzed that the Mo Family Brothers were joking.

"What position do you hold in Dark Rising? Tell us and we might spare you. Otherwise, we’ll immediately crush you into mince."

With that said, Lin Yi surely had to answer their questions seriously.

It’s rare to meet such oblivious jesters, so Lin Yi was certainly going to play a prank on them.

"Mo Family Lords, please, I’ll confess myself. My name is Lin Yi, and I am a member of the Dark Rising Organization. I helped the Dark Rising Organization to overthrow the rule of All Gods, and as a reward, the organization gave me the Level E ring. That revelation of the Heaven-piercing Mantra was done by me, Lin Yi. I participated in the Nine Nether Transformations and also acquired the Divine River Song artifact."

"In this Secret Realm action, I am the ultimate beneficiary, and I’ve obtained the External Divine Artifact, Fu Xi Talisman."

Lin Yi spoke with sincerity.

Honestly, he’s never been so straightforward in front of an enemy.

With all the people he’s met along the way, Lin Yi has never fully revealed his circumstances, and this genuine and frank act is indeed a first!

Even Wo Zhiqi and the Great Saint inside Lin Yi laughed uproariously.

Upon hearing Lin Yi’s words, the Mo Family Brothers burst into laughter.

Good kid, truly from the noble family of some divine faction, able to recognize the identities of the two brothers at a glance. The guess about Lin Yi’s identity was most likely correct.

However, even if he’s the progeny of a certain divine family, joking like this is still impermissible.

The user of the Heaven-piercing Mantra remains unknown; no matter who it is, once their identity is locked, they become the top target on the Immortal King’s kill list. Regarding the lost artifact, the Divine River Song, the gods speculate that it was probably taken by King of the Nine Netherworld.

After all, Qin Zhu, the King of the Nine Netherworld, is specifically responsible for managing the Nine Nether River, surpassing all divine beings in the Three Realms and Six Paths in his understanding of the Nine Nether River.

The idea that he took the Divine River Song is the most scientific reasoning.

Looking at the sincere young man before them and recalling the youth’s recent boasts, the Mo Family Brothers felt the atmosphere lighten.

Regarding the matters of the Secret Realm on Star 876, the Mo Family Brothers weren’t very informed, but one thing was certain.

"Hahaha, kid, you sure know how to joke. Knowing such a major event happened on Star 876 and remaining calm—it’s no exaggeration to say you’re the most daring young man I’ve seen. But some jokes you can make, others you really shouldn’t. The Nine Nether Transformations have always been a thorn in the side for Lord Immortal King."

"Today, diligently tell us what specifically happened on Star 876, and we might ignore your jokes."

These words left Lin Yi at a loss. Didn’t he just say he’s the ultimate beneficiary of this Secret Realm action? He even mentioned his general activities on Star 876. Isn’t that enough? What more detail is needed?

"Well, I’m serious, not joking. Initially, it was like this: the strong ones from the Immortal King faction entered the Secret Realm first, setting up various arrays within it. On one hand, to prevent gods from other factions from rioting, on the other, they set up arrays to enhance attributes, assisting the God of Soul Gathering in conquering the Fu Xi Talisman’s powers."

"Initially, things went smoothly. Gods from other factions believed they could reap benefits from the lake at the center of the Secret Realm, not realizing it was a pre-set altar for them. Then it was my turn—I dropped two of my avatars into that altar, causing the emergence of the Fu Xi Talisman to become extremely chaotic, and you know the rest..."

Lin Yi provided a detailed account to the Mo Family Brothers of what happened within the Secret Realm, including his own opportunistic actions, all relayed logically and without flaw.

The Mo Family Brothers listened with such enthrallment.

Even after Lin Yi finished, they still felt somewhat unsatisfied, believing that the mission to explore the Secret Realm was sure to be completed excellently.

After a few seconds...

"Wait, are you serious, kid?"

The Mo Family Brothers’ Lifebound Divine Artifacts were already poised in front of their chests, the glow of divine power flashing upon them, clearly showing their readiness for battle. However, the look of doubt on their faces was still prominent.

The God of Soul Gathering is one of the top Upper-Rank Gods with a Divine Power Level reaching Grade A. If he couldn’t solve something, could the young man with only Level E divine power in front of them really have done it?

Yet, how this series of extremely unlikely feats was told so convincingly—could it be that this boy really did accomplish so many things not aligned with his divine power level?

Lin Yi slowly stood up, eyes full of helplessness, lamenting:

In the end, it’s a mistake, in the end, it’s a mistake!

It’s rare for me, Lin Yi, to be so sincere for once, and these two fools still don’t believe me; truly, a sincere heart fed to dogs.
