Chapter 3433: The Origin of the Broken Sky Domain

Lin Moyu was very interested in the Heaven-Seeking Seal. This treasure might be related to the Fate Great Dao.

The Fate Great Dao was an illusory type of Great Dao. Even if it was shattered, it would slowly recover over long ages.

Now the Fate Great Dao had recovered somewhat. If he could find another treasure related to the Fate Great Dao and study it, he might be able to touch upon the Fate Great Dao.

Both the Fate Great Dao and the Karma Great Dao were very mysterious, and extremely important for the Origin Continent.

Otherwise, they wouldn't have shattered the Fate Great Dao at the beginning of the great war.

As long as the Fate Great Dao existed, the Origin Continent wouldn't have been so passive during the Origin Catastrophe.

The Cloud-Piercing Sword passed through vast yellow sands, and mountains once again came into view.

Lin Moyu took Little Mei and left overnight, leaving only a message for Jiang Ruohui telling him the matter was resolved and not to worry anymore.

He was going to Broken Sky City, first to find the Lu Feng Chamber of Commerce, and second to find Jiang Ruoxue.

Strictly speaking, the karma he needed to resolve was with Jiang Ruoxue, and had nothing to do with the Jiang family.

This intervention was actually just joining in the fun, while also becoming interested in Wu Xingguang's treasure. He didn't expect to get information about the Heaven-Seeking Seal.

Little Mei asked, "Teacher, is this Heaven-Seeking Seal really so amazing?"

Lin Moyu said, "If it's related to the Fate Great Dao, it can't be amazing enough."

Little Mei murmured, "It's called the Heaven-Seeking Seal. Could it mean seeking heavenly opportunities?"

Lin Moyu smiled slightly, "You can understand it that way. Seeking heavenly opportunities, seeking Great Dao opportunities, it's all the same principle."

Little Mei said, "But even if it developed a spirit, it's still just a treasure, right? Could it want to reincarnate as a human?"

Lin Moyu said, "That's not impossible."

Little Mei said, "That would be eye-opening. I've seen many treasures with spirits, but never one that wanted to reincarnate as a human."

Mountain after mountain receded behind them. Lin Moyu rode the Cloud-Piercing Sword at extreme speed, crossing half of the Broken Sky Domain in just one day.

Floating City was only on the edge of the Broken Sky Domain. Broken Sky City, where the Dongfang family resided, was the center of the Broken Sky Domain.

Broken Sky City's shape was like a great blade. The city gate was like the blade tip, pointing high towards the sky.

This city was very long and narrow, the entire city like a blade's body.

The whole city was built along the blade's body, then spread outwards, expanding in the middle and then gradually narrowing again.

The Dongfang family's location was at the hilt of this blade.

Little Mei said, "Broken Sky City is so strange."

Lin Moyu asked, "Strange in what way?"

Little Mei said, "I can't explain it clearly. But every time I come to Broken Sky City, I feel it's very strange. I've never seen a city like this. Here, I always feel like someone is pointing a blade at me."

Lin Moyu smiled and said, "Your feeling isn't wrong. Broken Sky City itself is a treasure."

Little Mei exclaimed in surprise, "Broken Sky City is a treasure?"

Lin Moyu said, "That's right, it's a treasure, and a Great Dao realm treasure at that. Does Little Mei know why the Broken Sky Domain is called the Broken Sky Domain?"

Little Mei shook her head. Even in her past life's memories, there was no information related to this.

Lin Moyu explained, "It's said that once, an ancestor of the Dongfang family, wielding this blade, nearly cut the Broken Sky Domain in half with a single strike. Oh right, at that time this place wasn't called the Broken Sky Domain. Because that Dongfang family ancestor was named Dongfang Duantian (Broken Sky), this place was named the Broken Sky Domain."

This was the first time Little Mei had heard this explanation. She completely believed Lin Moyu's words. "So that's how it is. How does Teacher know so much?"

Lin Moyu smiled and said, "How would I know? I bought all this information from the Lu Feng Chamber of Commerce."

Little Mei said in surprise, "The Lu Feng Chamber of Commerce really has everything!"

Lin Moyu said, "Not necessarily. Some information can't be bought. For example, the Nine Heavens Competition was only briefly mentioned in the information, without specific details."

As the two approached Broken Sky City, they felt a powerful aura. From the tip of Broken Sky City, a strong aura continuously emanated, making one's skin ache.

Many people coming here would unconsciously avoid the blade tip.

When they were still a hundred miles from Broken Sky City, they saw in the distance, beyond Broken Sky City, an incredibly huge mountain peak reaching into the clouds.

The mountain peak was hazy, only its outline visible.

Little Mei said, "That's Nine Heavens Peak. The Nine Heavens Competition is held at the foot of Nine Heavens Peak."

Lin Moyu saw that many people had already gathered at the foot of Nine Heavens Peak. "Let's go take a look at the Nine Heavens Competition first, then go to the Lu Feng Chamber of Commerce afterwards."

The Cloud-Piercing Sword accelerated, circling around Broken Sky City towards Nine Heavens Peak.

At least tens of thousands of people had gathered at the foot of Nine Heavens Peak. The Dongfang family had prepared a huge area for the competition.

The arena used for the competition was a square over ten thousand meters long, covered by a huge formation.

The formation was currently operating, dividing the arena evenly into nine areas, three by three. In each area, two people were competing.

Little Mei said, "It seems after so many years, the rules haven't changed."

Lin Moyu smiled and said, "Tell me about it."

Little Mei said, "This arena is divided into nine grids. Each time, eighteen people will go up, competing in pairs. The winner of each pair will occupy one grid, and can choose any adjacent grid to participate in a three-way battle."

"The winner of the three-way battle can then choose another adjacent grid to compete in, with the winner occupying a larger area."

"Of course, they can also choose not to participate in the mixed battle, just guarding the area they occupy."

Lin Moyu said, "Then how is the winner determined?"

Little Mei said, "Each competition lasts 100 minutes. After 100 minutes, whoever occupies the most area is the winner. If someone can eliminate all others within 100 minutes, they also win."

"The winner then qualifies to climb Nine Heavens Peak."

"This method has been used since the Nine Heavens Competition began, and the rules have never changed."

Lin Moyu smiled and said, "It's a good method. Actually, it doesn't need to change."

This competition method took into account factors like strength, luck, and judgment of strengths and weaknesses. It was a comprehensive test of a cultivator's overall ability.

Those who could win from this either had overwhelming strength or exceptional courage and judgment.

However, the Dongfang family likely wouldn't allow overwhelming strength disparities. They would certainly control this to maintain basic fairness.

Otherwise, if a Dao Venerable went up against seventeen Heavenly Venerables, what would be the point? The Heavenly Venerables might as well concede directly.

Looking now, the eighteen people currently competing on the stage had similar cultivation levels and not much difference in strength, just as Lin Moyu had judged.

Lin Moyu looked down from above, his gaze sweeping over the crowd, and saw Jiang Ruoxue.

Jiang Ruoxue was sitting there, looking somewhat nervous.

Lin Moyu was about to fly over when suddenly a shout came to his ears, "Flying is forbidden within a hundred miles of the Nine Heavens Competition!"

Then, a team from the Dongfang family flew over from afar, their rolling aura crushing towards Lin Moyu.
