**Chapter 1633: You Shouldn't Use Me as a Stepping Stone**
"Not accepting it? What can you do if you don't accept it?"
Luo Feiyu knew why he acted. It was because he was in a bad mood and a bit jealous. Lin Moyu was only at the fifth tier of the Divine King realm, so why could he set up such a complex and powerful formation?
Why did he become the center of attention, stealing all the limelight?
Especially with the saying that only those who could stare at the formation for more than a minute were qualified to become a Divine Sovereign. He could stare at the formation for more than a minute, but just barely. His soul had already reached the fourth grade, naturally qualifying him to become a Divine Sovereign, but that was it. This also meant that his potential had reached its limit, making further progress difficult. But seeing Lin Moyu's effortless demeanor made him feel inexplicably uncomfortable. Why?
So he acted, driven by such a trivial emotion.
But Luo Feiyu was also measured; he wouldn't attack Lin Moyu directly.
He attacked the formation instead, which, in the Human Emperor Network's judgment, was different. He could have a reason to explain.
At the same time, he used words to provoke. If Lin Moyu fought back, the nature of the situation would change.
If a fight broke out, even if he accidentally killed Lin Moyu during the fight, he would naturally face severe punishment. But he was from the Luo family, which had two Divine Sovereigns in its 22 generations.
With a strong family background, he could afford the punishment.
Luo Feiyu chuckled, "What can you do if you don't accept it? Do you dare to fight me?"
"If you really have the guts, then hit me!"
He was provoking, actually hoping Lin Moyu would fight back.
If he encountered a smart person, they might directly communicate with the Human Emperor Network and let it handle the situation.
That would ruin Luo Feiyu's plan, and he would face some minor punishment.
But Lin Moyu wasn't that kind of person.
Lin Moyu said softly, "As you wish!"
With that, he pointed his finger, and a red light suddenly shone.
Fusion Spell: Time Curse!
It had been a long time since he used the Time Curse. This spell couldn't harm Luo Feiyu but could make him taste soul-level pain!
Luo Feiyu was enveloped in red light and immediately let out an earth-shattering scream.
Lin Moyu pointed his finger again.
Stellar-level Spell: Undead Gaze!
In the starry sky, blazing flames erupted, covering millions of meters. A gray eye opened within the flames.
The Undead Eye gazed at the still-screaming Luo Feiyu, and another soul attack silently fell.
The soul was struck again, pain upon pain.
Luo Feiyu screamed even more intensely, curling up and trembling with his hands holding his head.
The two soul attacks couldn't cause any substantial harm to Luo Feiyu.
But the intense pain was enough to haunt him for a while.
The onlookers were shocked, "He really dared to fight back."
"Luo Feiyu is the young master of the Luo family. How dare he fight back?"
"Such boldness! Isn't he afraid of the Human Emperor Network's punishment?"
"But Luo Feiyu attacked first!"
"Is he crazy? Luo Feiyu only attacked the formation, not him."
"Given Luo Feiyu's character, he shouldn't have attacked. What's going on?"
"I don't understand, really don't understand."
Many people knew Luo Feiyu and his character, feeling that he wasn't the type to act rashly.
But Luo Feiyu did act, leaving them puzzled. Luo Feiyu trembled in pain, "You dare use soul attacks on me?"
He endured the pain and raised his sword.
But his hand holding the sword was still trembling!
Many people were watching, all stunned.
What kind of soul attack could cause Luo Feiyu such pain?
As the young master of the Luo family, Luo Feiyu couldn't be without soul treasures.
He must have soul armor, and his soul, capable of becoming a minor Divine Sovereign, wouldn't be weak.
Yet, he was still in such pain.
If it were another cultivator at the seventh or eighth tier of the Divine King realm, their soul might have collapsed on the spot.
Everyone realized that this Divine King who could set up formations was not simple, and Luo Feiyu might have kicked an iron plate this time.
Lin Moyu looked at the trembling Luo Feiyu, "I see jealousy in your eyes. Did you attack me out of jealousy?"
"Do you think that as long as I fight back, you can kill me in the fight?"
"Even if you face significant punishment, you can vent your jealousy."
"I guess you should have been able to break through to Divine Sovereign long ago. But because of some inner issue, you haven't been able to."
"It seems your jealousy is strong enough to affect your cultivation."
"With such a poor state of mind, your future path won't be far."
Lin Moyu's words were like invisible swords, piercing Luo Feiyu's heart.
Luo Feiyu couldn't believe how Lin Moyu guessed it.
Was it his eyes? Or did he reveal some flaw?
The key was that Lin Moyu was entirely correct, almost without error.
He could have broken through to Divine Sovereign long ago but was hindered by a specific reason.
He hadn't told anyone about this, not even his father.
But Lin Moyu saw through it at a glance.
To Luo Feiyu, Lin Moyu became terrifying, like an omniscient deity, quietly watching him.
Like the giant eye in the starry sky, it seemed to be Lin Moyu's eye.
He realized he had provoked the wrong person.
Now he had two choices: fight, following his initial plan.
If he could defeat Lin Moyu, it would prove his strength, possibly overcoming his inner issue and breaking through to Divine Sovereign.
Or retreat, making his path to Divine Sovereign even more distant.
His previous wound would worsen, possibly becoming irreparable.
Luo Feiyu hesitated, unable to decide, his eyes full of struggle.
Lin Moyu saw more in his eyes, "Your state of mind is flawed. You want to use me as a stepping stone to fill the gap. But you're afraid you're not my match, worsening your state of mind."
Luo Feiyu shuddered, his face showing bitterness, realizing Lin Moyu saw through everything.
Lin Moyu continued, "You're from the Luo family, right?"
Luo Feiyu nodded slightly, remaining silent.
Lin Moyu chuckled, "With the Luo family's stature, they wouldn't provoke me out of jealousy."
"Unfortunately, I'm not a suitable stepping stone for you."
By now, Luo Feiyu understood.
The young Divine King before him wasn't a stepping stone but an insurmountable mountain.
Using him as a stepping stone would only lead to being crushed.
Luo Feiyu sighed, looking dejected.
His appearance was already somewhat delicate, and now he looked even more so, exuding a sense of death.
His state of mind was further damaged.
The state of mind is a mysterious thing, difficult for others to help with.
Everyone knows the importance of a firm Dao heart.
But achieving it is incredibly difficult.
If Luo Feiyu couldn't figure it out, he might remain a minor Divine Sovereign forever, or even regress.
"Today's matter was my fault. If you ever visit the Luo family, I will welcome you and apologize with a drink!"
Luo Feiyu left, full of dejection.
But his parting words gave Lin Moyu a glimmer of hope.
He felt Luo Feiyu still had a chance, still had hope.
"Breaking and then standing, perhaps overcoming this will lead to great progress!"
