 **Chapter 2842: If That's Your Path, I Won't Stop You**

The latter half of Lin Moyu's words was actually meant for the Falling Star Lord.

He was telling the Falling Star Lord that he would do everything possible to fulfill his promises to others, even if it meant facing danger, and he wouldn't easily back down.

Hearing this, the Falling Star Lord's eyes flickered with a faint light, and he sighed softly, "Very well then."

"This origin secret vault was constructed by me, the Cold Nine Star Lord, and the Two Wind Star Lord, combining the power of our lifelong cultivation as Star Lords."

"Its purpose was to trap an enemy."

Lin Moyu was suddenly shocked. The Cold Nine Star Lord and the Two Wind Star Lord were both among the twenty-eight constellations, top-tier Star Lords.

Each of them was no weaker than a Dao Sovereign Ninth Realm expert. What kind of enemy would require the combined efforts of all three to trap?

Lin Moyu immediately thought of two possibilities, "Is the enemy at the Great Dao realm? Or an extraterrestrial god?"

The Falling Star Lord said, "It seems you know quite a bit. In that case, it's easy to explain."

"It's not a Great Dao realm expert; such an existence couldn't be trapped even if the three of us risked our lives."

"Nor is it an extraterrestrial god. Extraterrestrial gods are no weaker than the Great Dao realm and are also beyond our ability to handle."

"The three of us managed to trap only a pet of an extraterrestrial god, also known as a divine pet."

"And it was this divine pet that caused the three of us to fall here."

The Falling Star Lord spoke with a hint of bitterness.

Lin Moyu was dumbfounded. He understood that the Great Dao realm and extraterrestrial gods were strong.

Back when the God-Slaying Sect was still called Tu Family Village, they renamed it after slaying an extraterrestrial god.

One can imagine how difficult it is to kill an extraterrestrial god, no less challenging than a Great Dao realm expert.

But he never expected that just a pet of an extraterrestrial god could cause the downfall of three top-tier Star Lords.

The Falling Star Lord continued, and what he said next shocked Lin Moyu even more.

Lin Moyu even felt as if he had misheard.

The Falling Star Lord's bitterness deepened, "The divine pet was severely injured in a previous battle and was healing."

"When we discovered it, its injuries hadn't fully recovered."

"Even so, the three of us paid a heavy price to trap and kill it."

Lin Moyu was speechless; the cost was indeed heavy—three Star Lords fell.

Just to kill a wounded pet of an extraterrestrial god.

Lin Moyu was curious, "What exactly are extraterrestrial gods?"

The Falling Star Lord shook his head, "We don't know their origins, or even what they look like."

"But their combat methods, spells, and so on are about seventy to eighty percent similar to ours."

"They have a distinct aura, and once you see it, you won't mistake it."

"We don't know where they come from. When an extraterrestrial god appeared, a great battle ensued."

"This divine pet was likely injured in that battle, later hiding to heal, and was eventually discovered by us."

The Falling Star Lord couldn't clearly explain the origins of extraterrestrial gods, only mentioning their unique aura, unmistakable once seen.

Knowing he couldn't get more information, Lin Moyu asked about the Starwind Secret Vault.

The Starwind Secret Vault was formed by the fusion of the three Star Lords' powers.

The outer area was controlled by the Falling Star Lord and the Two Wind Star Lord, while the Cold Nine Star Lord was responsible for the core area.

Among the three, the Cold Nine Star Lord was the strongest, and together they injured the divine pet again, with the Cold Nine Star Lord ultimately sacrificing his life to trap it.

Lin Moyu asked, "A thousand years ago, the secret vault was discovered on the Origin Continent, and many people entered. Did the Star Lord know?"

The Falling Star Lord seemed to recall and said after a moment, "Although that creature was trapped by us, it never gave up and kept resisting."

"At that time, its resistance was most intense, and the defenses we set up were nearly breached, revealing the secret vault to the world."

"Fortunately, it was ultimately contained, but the secret vault couldn't hide again, attracting many people."

"Because of that creature, a rift opened in the core area controlled by the Cold Nine Star Lord, allowing those people to enter the core area."

"But we should thank them, for their arrival weakened that creature's power significantly, giving us an opportunity."

Lin Moyu asked curiously, "What opportunity?"

The Falling Star Lord smiled slightly, "The opportunity to kill it."

Lin Moyu was suddenly startled, realizing what the Falling Star Lord meant by opportunity.

Back then, the combined power of the three could only trap the divine pet, not truly kill it.

Later, they thought of a way to destroy the entire secret vault, using the power generated by its collapse to kill it.

It was the only method they could think of.

Lin Moyu asked, "Couldn't you release them before killing that creature?"

The Falling Star Lord shook his head slightly, "It's not that we didn't want to, but we couldn't. To truly trap that creature, the Cold Nine Star Lord severed the connection between the inner and outer vaults. They can't get out, and we can't get in."

Lin Moyu asked solemnly, "Are you sure they can't get out?"

The Falling Star Lord nodded, "They can't. If they could, that creature would surely find an opportunity."

"If it escaped, all our years of effort would be in vain."

"I know you want to save them, but you can't."

Lin Moyu's eyes glowed slightly, "So, are they all alive?"

The Falling Star Lord said, "Some should be dead, but the rest are still alive. I can feel that creature's power weakening."

Lin Moyu said, "Heaven never seals off all paths. I believe there's a way to save them. Please guide me, Senior."

The Falling Star Lord said, "There's only one way: kill that creature. But it's unlikely to be killed; the three of us tried and failed."

"If you go in now, you'll just be another trapped person. It's better to leave immediately. You have a bright future; it's not worth it."

Lin Moyu's eyes moved slightly, and he sighed, "Some things can't be measured by worth."

"Please tell me how to kill that creature, or at least severely injure it. I want to try."

Lin Moyu knew the three Star Lords had fought it for so long and had injured it.

They must know some information, and if he were to go, the more information he had, the better.

Besides his promise to Lu Fengyao, Lin Moyu had a vague feeling.

If he could kill the pet of the extraterrestrial god, it would benefit him.

As for what benefits, he didn't know.

But the purple light of luck and the dragon of luck roaring in his ears told him that killing it would be beneficial.

The Falling Star Lord asked, "Are you sure you want to go in?"

Lin Moyu nodded, "I'm sure. If I fail, I'll have to disappoint your good intentions."

The Falling Star Lord waved his hand, "No matter. I was already resigned. Finding a successor was just a luxury; it doesn't matter if it's gone."

"Since you've made your decision, that's your path, and I won't stop you."
