Chapter 3192: Two Tigers on One Mountain
The Great Dao reward arrived as promised, for everyone present, without exception.
Even Su Li, who contributed the least, received a share of the Great Dao reward.
The Great Dao reward was fair; the more one contributed, the more reward they received.
Those who contributed less naturally received less reward.
Su Li's reward wasn't much, lasting only a short while before ending. His aura improved somewhat compared to before, and his cultivation level advanced a bit.
For their first Great Dao reward, most people chose to enhance their cultivation level.
The brothers Su Jin and Su Shen did the same, also choosing to improve their cultivation.
As for the Ancestral Spirit, being a tool spirit, it didn't need to enhance its cultivation.
The Ancestral Spirit hoped the Great Dao could help the Celestial Fox ancestor revive. As a tool spirit, the Celestial Fox ancestor was its creator and the most important existence in its life.
Naturally, the Celestial Fox ancestor was now striving to revive. The entire process could take as short as a thousand years or as long as tens of thousands of years.
The appearance of the Great Dao reward allowed him to significantly shorten his revival time.
Lin Moyu guessed that the Celestial Fox ancestor's backup plan might have even accounted for the Great Dao reward.
With the Great Dao reward, the Celestial Fox ancestor's revival was almost certain.
Indeed, worthy of being the smartest clan among the beast races, their thoughts and actions were very practical.
Among them, Lin Moyu received the most Great Dao reward, after all, the black blood was ultimately destroyed by him.
Lin Moyu used the Great Dao reward to condense dao patterns.
Originally, it took him 200 years to condense one dao pattern.
Using the Great Dao crystal reduced the time a hundredfold, needing only two years.
And under the Great Dao reward, it only took ten minutes.
The Great Dao reward was truly the ultimate tool for condensing dao patterns, incomparable to any other treasure.
Unfortunately, the effect of the Great Dao reward couldn't overlap with the Great Dao crystal.
This time, too many people shared the Great Dao reward. Lin Moyu only condensed four dao patterns before the Great Dao reward completely dissipated.
The number of dao patterns increased to fifty-eight, with fifty used and eight in an idle state.
As the Great Dao reward ended, Lin Moyu opened his eyes, "Now it's truly over."
The Ancestral Spirit said, "Thank you, Mr. Lin, for helping our clan through this crisis. I have nothing here to thank you with, so we'll have to wait until you leave to ask Clan Leader Su Mou."
Lin Moyu said, "Clan Leader Su Mou did indeed make some promises to me, and I've also gained quite a few benefits here. You don't need to be so polite."
"Your ancestor is in the process of reviving, which will probably take over a thousand years. The Qingqiu ancestral land also needs time to recover, so I won't disturb you further."
The Ancestral Spirit said, "I'll see Mr. Lin out."
Then it said to Su Jin and Su Shen, "You two stay for a few more days to help me repair the Qingqiu ancestral land."
At this point, the rules of the ancestral land had recovered, and the Ancestral Spirit could use these rules to rebuild the ancestral land.
With the help of the Su Jin brothers, the process would be much faster.
Lin Moyu took out a dao stone, "No rush, I still need to ask you all to make a Great Dao oath."
In Nine-tailed City, in a palace atop a mountain peak, the blood pool had long since stopped boiling.
A group of Celestial Fox clan elders sat cross-legged in the palace, quietly waiting for the result.
Those who could come here were all old fellows, each extremely patient.
Suddenly, the quiet blood pool began to boil on its own, and then a pillar of blood rose from the pool, shooting towards the sky.
The blood light reached the top of the palace, and space twisted and shattered within it, forming a passage.
Su Mou opened his eyes and looked towards the sky, his old face showing joy, "They're out!"
Along with the joy was a hint of nervousness.
He didn't know what had happened inside the ancestral land, whether Lin Moyu had succeeded or failed, and whether his grandson was safe.
Soon, the figures of Lin Moyu and Su Li appeared in the passage.
Seeing the two unharmed, Su Mou immediately let out a sigh of relief.
Regardless of whether the crisis in the ancestral land had been resolved, at least the two had returned safely, which was already something worth celebrating.
Leaving the passage, Lin Moyu flew directly outside the palace, looking towards the distant sky.
Su Li also said nothing, closely following Lin Moyu out.
The strange behavior of the two caused some of the clan elders in the palace to feel puzzled.
Su Mou gestured for everyone to be quiet and flew over personally.
He came to Su Li's side and, like Su Li, said nothing, not even asking about the situation.
Lin Moyu looked at the Celestial Fox clan's destiny. At this time, the clan's destiny had become clean, with the calamity gone and no black blood polluting it.
Although in terms of destiny strength, it had decreased compared to before, the level of destiny had risen.
Overall, the Celestial Fox clan's destiny had improved.
Normally, once a calamity appears, it means destiny has entered a fork in the road.
If the calamity is successfully overcome, destiny will change.
If not overcome, the clan's strength will be greatly weakened.
The Celestial Fox clan had overcome this calamity, and their race would surely experience a rise.
The source of this rise might be the reviving Celestial Fox ancestor.
Once the Celestial Fox ancestor revives, the clan's bloodline will surely be strengthened, and the entire clan's strength will increase significantly.
The Celestial Fox ancestor's combat power was extraordinary. Lin Moyu felt that the ancestor's combat power might even surpass that of the Beast Emperor.
At that time, who would lead the beast races would be hard to say.
With the Celestial Fox ancestor backing them, even the Beast Emperor couldn't do much to the Celestial Fox clan.
Lin Moyu found this interesting, feeling it was like having two tigers on one mountain. The entire structure of the beast races might change.
After confirming that the Celestial Fox clan was no longer in trouble, Lin Moyu withdrew his gaze and said to Su Mou, "Mission accomplished."
Su Mou's face immediately lit up with joy, "Has the crisis in the ancestral land been resolved?"
Lin Moyu said, "Su Li can tell you the specific details."
Su Mou nodded, "As long as the ancestral land is safe, that's good. That's good."
He wasn't in a hurry to know the details. As long as he knew the crisis in the ancestral land had been resolved, that was enough.
As for what exactly happened, he could ask slowly later.
Su Mou flipped his palm, producing a jade tablet and a treasure box.
"This jade tablet contains some information about the Western Continent that I recently had people compile, as well as some information Mr. Lin might be interested in."
"This treasure box was also found deep in our storehouse. I'm not sure when it was put there; we hadn't noticed it before."
Lin Moyu accepted the treasure box and jade tablet without asking much, simply saying thanks.
For what he had done, these two items from Su Mou were far from enough compensation.
Su Mou also knew this point and said softly, "The day after tomorrow, I'd like to invite Mr. Lin to browse our clan's treasure vault, to see if there are any problems with the items there."
"If there are any issues, please help us deal with them, Mr. Lin."
He spoke very politely, saying he was inviting Lin Moyu to check if there were any problems in the treasure vault.
In reality, he wanted Lin Moyu to select treasures.
The situation was exactly the same as when he was with the Thunder Light Purple-striped Tiger clan, except that Lei Mie had spoken more directly and straightforwardly.
Su Mou, on the other hand, spoke more implicitly, with some underlying meaning.
Lin Moyu smiled and said, "Alright, I'll wait for the Clan Leader to come. I'll take my leave now."
