Although Lu Yang no longer pursued it in detail, his guess had not been wrong.
A dignified True Lord would naturally not personally act because of a junior.
Lu Yang was merely a pawn.
The one who truly connected with the [Soaring Sky Covering Sun True Lord] through the causally elusive boundary world of the [Ten Thousand Martial World] was actually Suo Huan.
If not, why would he have attacked the Dragon King Sui Ying of the Four Seas Sect?
Did they really think it was just to trade with that foolish woman Miao Yin?
His true target had always been the half piece of [Hidden Dragon Water] in Sui Ying's possession!
That was a piece of Celestial Earth whose Yin and Yang had been reversed by the [Soaring Sky Covering Sun True Lord]!
It was precisely through this that Suo Huan had made contact with this True Lord.

"You already have the Golden Core Seeking Method, so why do you still wish to see me?"
"True Lord, please see clearly, this lowly one is terrified."
Suo Huan trembled as he spoke:
"All the True Lords from various factions have approached this lowly one, wishing me to validate [Long Flowing Water] and break the True Lord's Dao lineage. This lowly one is truly helpless."
Upon hearing this, the True Lord glanced seriously at Suo Huan, then let out a light laugh:
"The Pure Land has perfected your blessed land for you, the Sacred Sect has helped you draw the resonance of the Fruit Position, and the Dao Court has bestowed you with an official rank.
The three forces have joined hands to give you a slim chance at seeking the Golden Core.
Such great fortune should not be considered helpless, right?"
"Though it is fortune, it is also tribulation."
Suo Huan lowered his head and continued:
"[Long Flowing Water] concerns the True Lord's Great Dao. Even if this lowly one succeeds, I am but a rogue cultivator.
How could I resist the divine might of the True Lord?"
"I fear the moment of validation would be the moment of my demise."
"Thus, this lowly one is willing to devote himself to the Underworld, serving at your side as a vanguard, only begging the True Lord to grant me a rightful Fruit Position. R̃ΑꞐ𝐎βΕᶊ
I beseech the True Lord for mercy."
Suo Huan's tone was extremely humble.
However, he felt no shame in this.
As a small figure like him, if he did not lower himself, bow his head, or cast aside his pride, how could he seek the Golden Core?
He had not even sealed his Sea of Consciousness.
Ordinary Foundation Establishment Real Persons would seal their Sea of Consciousness, which could not be forcibly opened without special means, not even by a True Lord.
Yet at this moment, Suo Huan had deliberately opened his Sea of Consciousness, laying bare all his thoughts to the True Lord before him as a sign of sincerity.
For a moment, even the True Lord fell silent.
Because Suo Huan had not concealed anything, the True Lord easily read his emotions.
Yet, he found no trace of deceit or ulterior motive, only one clear thought:
'Wants to be my dog?'
After a brief silence, the True Lord finally laughed:
"Good, you truly are a talent.
Since all parties want you to validate [Long Flowing Water], then go ahead and do it."
At these words, Suo Huan immediately felt dizzy and disoriented.
'What!?
He is letting me do it without the slightest concern!?'
In an instant, Suo Huan even felt a wave of panic.
To be honest, he had anticipated various reactions from the True Lord and had prepared accordingly.
He had even considered that the True Lord might view his validation of [Long Flowing Water] as a threat to his Dao path, and being unwilling to offer a rogue cultivator like him a way out in the [Underworld], might simply kill him with a slap.
Thus, the one who came to the [Ten Thousand Martial World] today was not his true body but a crafted avatar.
Yet, he had never expected that the True Lord would be completely unconcerned!
One must know that not long ago, the True Lord had been thrown into chaos by Chong Guang's Golden Core seeking, which reversed all Celestial Earth under heaven, resulting in a fierce battle with over ten True Lords.
Under such circumstances, how could he allow anyone to validate [Long Flowing Water]?
Seeing Suo Huan's wavering expression, the True Lord finally laughed:
"If you validate [Long Flowing Water] and then enter my [Underworld], I will value you even more in the future."
'He wants to bring [Long Flowing Water] into the [Underworld]?'
'Is he truly aiming for reincarnation?'
Suo Huan was filled with endless doubts, but his face showed no sign of it.
Instead, he appeared extremely moved, lowering his head and saying:
"Thank you for the True Lord's mercy!"
"But True Lord, my chances of seeking the Golden Core are truly slim."
This could be seen by comparing himself with Chong Guang.
What kind of background did Chong Guang have?
A solid Foundation Establishment at the peak stage, a blessed land of his own, a backer at the mid-stage Golden Core level, and numerous capable subordinates.
And what about him?
A lone rogue, barely achieving peak Foundation Establishment thanks to the Dao lineage's bestowed official position, a half-crippled blessed land formed after the collapse of the boundary world, and no backing whatsoever.
Even having the slightest hope of seeking the Golden Core was already an overly optimistic estimate!
So, he needed more!
He did not care what schemes the True Lord had.
He had already approached three factions.
As long as it increased his chances of success, one more made no difference!
'If only the Sword Pavilion wasn't so unreasonable, I would have approached them too.'
Among the four great powers, only the Sword Pavilion had the harshest stance toward outsiders, killing them on sight under the pretext of it being their "fated opportunity."
In the eyes of the Sword Pavilion, outsiders were mere filth.
Want to seek the Golden Core?
Sure, let us kill you first, send you into reincarnation to thoroughly temper you, and when you lose your past life memories, we will naturally bring you into the sect.
Thus, even Suo Huan, reckless as he was, had not dared to approach the Sword Pavilion.
"Your courage is truly great."
Suo Huan's brazen request for benefits even made the True Lord raise an eyebrow slightly.
As his voice fell, the entire world seemed to halt in that instant.
A massive spiritual pressure descended with a roar.
Yet, Suo Huan, enduring the pressure, pressed his body even lower, his forehead firmly touching the ground as he spoke with a steady and forceful tone:
"This lowly one is merely unwilling to give up, seeking a rightful Fruit Position.
I beg for mercy."
His tone was extremely humble.
However, the determination within was unmoved by the True Lord's imposing might.
". Very well, I grant it."
In the next moment, the True Lord suddenly let out a light laugh.
In an instant, the chilling atmosphere melted away like ice under the spring sun, as if it had never existed.
The True Lord's figure disappeared without a trace, leaving behind a single droplet of water floating in mid-air.
At first glance, it seemed as insignificant as a mustard seed.
But when scanned with divine sense, it felt like sinking into an endless ocean, filled with countless twists and turns, its origin impossible to discern.
Only then did Suo Huan let out a deep breath.
Raising his head, he saw the droplet suspended in the air.
After a brief moment of contemplation, a look of immense joy appeared on his face:
"This is a Fruit Position Treasure!?"
A sweep of his divine sense instantly revealed the information in his mind.
"[Heavenly Virtue Beneficent Divine Water]!"
As the name implied, this water possessed the virtue of clarity and nourishment, the wondrous ability to benefit the world, bringing revival and prosperity, and meritorious contributions.
"This is the supreme treasure to trigger [Long Flowing Water]!"
If used during the Golden Core seeking process, it could cause [Long Flowing Water] to actively respond, significantly reducing the difficulty of elevating the blessed land by several folds.
'Thirty percent, there is at least a thirty percent chance now!'
'He is not pretending, giving me this treasure shows he truly wants me to validate [Long Flowing Water].
Does he really have no fear that I might harm his Dao path?'
'Or could it be…'
Thinking of this, Suo Huan's expression gradually darkened again.
The joy that had just surfaced quickly faded, replaced by a chilling demeanor.
'All the factions are supporting me like this.'
'Do they truly not mind the emergence of a rogue True Lord, an outsider at that?
Aren't they worried that after I seize the Fruit Position, I might bring harm to the world?'
To be honest, he had originally thought this was something that would take over a hundred years to achieve, with a slim chance of success, so he had only intended to do his best and leave the rest to fate.
But so far, everything had gone surprisingly smoothly.
Almost every faction had agreed to his request without the slightest intention of refusal.
Although the conditions they proposed were harsh, they were still within his acceptable range.
They had not even asked whether he had contacted other factions.
He had prepared countless excuses, yet none were needed.
'Too smooth.'
The more Suo Huan thought about it, the more horrified he felt.
He could not help but glance around and let out a bitter laugh.
He did not even know if the True Lord was still present!
Suo Huan raised his head, gazing at the unreachable sky above, but could only swallow his doubts and dared not voice them:
'Are they truly supporting me, or is it because they all firmly believe that my attempt to seek the Golden Core is doomed to fail, and I am certain to die?'
