"First, show that we believe in the Law wholeheartedly, and then proactively state in the letter that we have sent our main forces to the Underworld to search for a new Heavenly Dao." Qi Yu propped her chin on her hand. "In reality, we will remain inactive, and after a while, we will send a fake soul to the Thirteenth Heaven."
"This way, we can first determine if Blood Demon Fiend and the others will launch a surprise attack after we transmit the false information, and second, we can also ascertain what the Law, which has been constantly talking about needing the soul of a new Heavenly Dao, truly intends to do."
Qi Yu narrowed her eyes. "If the Law has no malicious intent, then this fake soul should not encounter any accidents after being sent to the Thirteenth Heaven, and we can explain it as a mistake in our judgment at the time."
"If the Law has malicious intent..."
"Then we don't need to offend the Law; we can simply search for the new Heavenly Dao in secret."
In fact, Qi Yu speculated that the Law's eagerness to find a new Heavenly Dao was likely because the new Heavenly Dao was about to appear, and a new Law was about to be born. The current Law was gradually losing its control over the Three Realms and was about to lose its power.
Because it did not want to be replaced so quickly, the Law was desperately searching for a new Heavenly Dao.
Otherwise... why would the Law be so anxious to find a new Heavenly Dao?
If it truly cared for the well-being of all living beings, wouldn't it be better to sacrifice itself and perish with Blood Demon Fiend and Rakshasa Heavenly Venerate?
As soon as the Law and the Heavenly Dao disappeared, a new Law and Heavenly Dao would immediately appear.
Wouldn't that be faster than searching?
And it could still protect all living beings.
Qi Yu didn't think that the current Law was wrong for not wanting to be replaced.
Since the Law had already developed emotions due to the erosion of Blood Demon Fiend, it was natural for it to not want to be replaced.
She simply felt that the Law did not want to be replaced but said nothing on the surface, pretending to be on their side, while secretly plotting to destroy the primordial spirit of the new Heavenly Dao.
Such methods were no better than those of Blood Demon Fiend and Rakshasa Heavenly Venerate.
"Alright, if that's the case, we'll do as you say. But how do we create a fake soul?" Feng Mingqi had never heard of a fake soul before.
Could it fool them?
Qi Yu had a sly look.
"The so-called fake soul refers to a 'soul' created by mixing spiritual energy and the yang energy of humans. This kind of soul, whether it sounds or smells, is similar to a real human soul. The only difference is that this soul looks like the soul of an idiot; it won't respond."
She gradually condensed spiritual energy into a ball.
"If the Law's first action upon receiving the primordial spirit is to destroy it, then it definitely won't discover it."
"Then, what if the Law asks it to say a few last words before destroying it?" Wang Lanqing recalled that in the novels she read, villains often had time to confess before dying.
It was possible that before destroying the new Heavenly Dao, the Law might also have a moment of arrogance.
What if the Law said a lot to the fake soul, only to discover that it didn't respond, and upon careful examination, confirmed that the soul was fake? What then?
Qi Yu, however, did not take this concern seriously. "If the Law really discovers that the soul is wrong, then it can simply say, 'I don't know.'"
Yan Hua nodded.
"If the Law truly questions why the soul is unresponsive, it would precisely indicate that the new Heavenly Dao and new Law are about to be born, and the Law's connection with the Three Realms has weakened, making it unable to verify the authenticity of the soul or pinpoint the problem."
"So... you can deduce so much just from a letter, a fake soul, and a lie?" Chi Shangming pulled at the corner of his mouth, looking like his worldview had been shattered.
Were the people in this world too intelligent?
Qi Yu cast a confused look at him. "Is it strange? Isn't it only natural?"
Si Qing pouted. "Yeah, why are you so surprised? It's such a simple matter."
Chi Shangming's expression stiffened. "..."
He always felt out of place because he wasn't smart enough.
