 **Chapter 1974: Adjusting Luck, Bearing Karma**

Lin Moyu quickly learned and comprehended the [Luck Control Technique], deeply realizing that it was an evolution of the [Luck Detection Technique]. Manipulating the elusive luck was extremely difficult.

It involved more laws of causality. Lin Moyu strongly resisted the urge to comprehend the laws of causality, focusing only on studying the [Luck Control Technique].

Once he started researching the laws of causality, it wouldn't be resolved in a short time. It might take hundreds of years.

For now, he would remain someone who knows the phenomenon but not the reason behind it.

However, Lin Moyu still realized that the [Luck Control Technique], like his Undead Wings and Time Curse, could serve as a reference for the laws of causality.

"In the future, when there's an opportunity, I can study it thoroughly."

Lin Moyu's heart was already attracted by the laws of causality. This kind of virtual law, like the laws of time and space, had a fatal attraction.

He had a feeling that to reach the ultimate peak, one needed to combine the virtual and the real.

The combination of virtual and real, the mutual reflection of yin and yang, was the essence of this world.

The [Luck Control Technique] was not easy, but fortunately, Lin Moyu's comprehension was sufficient, and it didn't stump him.

Before long, he had comprehended and mastered the [Luck Control Technique].

The mist that originally enveloped the spell planet quickly merged into it, integrating with the [Luck Detection Technique].

Lin Moyu found that his newly mastered [Luck Detection Technique] had disappeared, replaced by the upgraded version of the [Luck Control Technique].

The [Luck Control Technique] had all the functions of the [Luck Detection Technique], including detecting luck, while also adding control capabilities.

After all the mist merged into the spell planet formed by the [Luck Detection Technique], the spell planet began to rotate rapidly.

The speed increased, and even lightning appeared on it.

This scene seemed familiar.

Lin Moyu was slightly surprised, "Is this... going to evolve?"

Previously, when a spell evolved, the spell planet turned into a spell star, and the process seemed to be like this.

After the rotation reached a certain degree, the entire planet suddenly exploded.

Then, a spell star radiating bright light rose from the center of the explosion.

"The spell planet actually evolved into a spell star!"

Lin Moyu was truly shocked this time. What happened before his eyes once again overturned his understanding.

He thought of what Antares had once said, that spells mastered later in life, without heaven-defying opportunities, could not become spell stars.

But right now, where was the heaven-defying opportunity? How did it evolve?

This was too incredible. Lin Moyu couldn't figure it out at all.

However, this also made Lin Moyu realize how powerful the Cloud Mist Sect was as an ancient great sect.

The so-called heaven-defying opportunity was nothing more than the inheritance within the Cloud Mist Sect.

But upon careful sensing, the newly born spell star was different from his other spell stars.

At the moment of the star's birth, although there was a big bang, no black hole appeared where the great world runes could be seen.

Compared to his other spell stars, it seemed a bit weaker.

Lin Moyu regained consciousness. Lord Wu seemed a bit impatient and immediately asked, "How was it? Did you learn it?"

She seemed a bit hesitant, but also excited.

It was as if she both hoped Lin Moyu could learn it and hoped he couldn't.

This contradictory thought was clearly visible in her expression.

Lin Moyu looked towards the distant stone tablet, "We're still using the stone tablet as a test subject, right?"

Lord Wu said, "That's right. There are three stone tablets there, each with different luck. You need to adjust their luck to be close to each other. The difference between the lowest and highest cannot exceed 10 points."

"Alright!" Lin Moyu walked towards the stone tablets. The requirement was that the difference should not exceed 10 points to pass.

But this was just the basics. To get a better score, he needed to make the luck values of the stone tablets even closer, preferably identical.

Arriving in front of the stone tablets, Lin Moyu activated the newly mastered [Luck Control Technique]. The three stone tablets immediately displayed their respective luck values.

The left stone tablet had a value of 80, showing a light red color.

The middle stone tablet had a value of 60, showing green.

The right stone tablet had a value of 40, showing light green.

When luck exceeds 80, the color changes from green to red. As luck increases, the red becomes deeper.

Once luck falls below 20, it turns gray, indicating very poor luck. Whatever one does won't go smoothly.

Between 21 and 79, it shows varying shades of green, indicating normal luck. Whether things can be accomplished depends on their difficulty.

The luck of the stone tablets, because it doesn't involve other things, has a very low probability of change.

Living beings are different. Because they are constantly active, their luck values are always changing.

A single word, a thought, or something about to be done can all affect the luck value.

The Luck Control Technique can only reflect the luck value at this moment in time.

Following the method of the Luck Control Technique, Lin Moyu began to adjust the luck values of the stone tablets.

Using the middle stone tablet as a benchmark, he needed to lower the luck value of the left stone tablet.

As the Luck Control Technique was activated, the stone tablet's luck value immediately changed.

It changed from light red to deep green, and the value changed from 80 to 79.

At this time, Lin Moyu felt his soul seemed to be under some pressure, a force from the unknown falling on his soul.

"This is karma..."

"I adjusted the stone tablet's luck value, sowing a cause, and must bear the stone tablet's effect."

"What this effect is, I can't be certain, but the karma has been established, and I must bear this effect."

Lin Moyu's mind was clear as a mirror, immediately understanding what was happening.

The law of karma is like an invisible great net, existing in the illusory aspect of the great world. Everything done normally establishes karma.

For every cause, there must be an effect. These karmic relationships are constantly being established and broken.

Some karma cancels out, while some accumulates.

The great net of the law of karma operates like this in the illusory world, and no one can escape it.

Previously, he couldn't sense karma, only seeing karmic lines in specific situations.

That was the law of karma manifesting, basically not very useful.

Now, he had received part of the Cloud Mist Sect's inheritance. Through the [Luck Control Technique], he could finally sense the karma falling on him.

Lin Moyu gained new insights into karma, but his hands didn't stop, continuing to adjust the values.

From unfamiliarity to proficiency, Lin Moyu's adjustment speed became faster and faster.

As the stone tablet's luck decreased, more and more karma fell on him, and the resistance to adjustment also increased.

Soul power was being rapidly consumed. Adjusting another's luck required enormous soul power.

Fortunately, Lin Moyu's soul replenishment speed was fast, so this consumption wasn't much.

In just five minutes, Lin Moyu fixed the left stone tablet's luck value at 60, not a point more, not a point less.

"It seems a bit simple!"

The adjustment was too simple, making Lin Moyu feel a bit strange.

He felt that any high-level Divine Sovereign could do this.

Thinking is one thing, doing is another. Next was adjusting the right stone tablet, this time to increase the luck value.

Again, karma was established. Unlike lowering the luck value, when increasing the luck value, Lin Moyu found that his soul bore even greater pressure.

Not only was soul power consumption intensified, but a sense of emptiness also arose spontaneously, and his body became heavy.

Lin Moyu realized that increasing luck was not easy; he had to bear greater karma.

Just as he was adjusting, he suddenly discovered that the luck value of the left stone tablet had started to slowly rise again.

"So the difficulty lies here!"
