Chapter 3655: If Eating It Will Kill You, Will You Still Eat It?

The power of the World-Burning Fire had greatly increased. Several void beasts fighting each other were instantly reduced to ashes, leaving behind only a few soul crystals.

The object they were fighting over was also revealed—a piece of tree bark the size of a fist.

The tree bark seemed to have been eaten by a void beast, which was then chased and attacked by several others, leading to a large battle.

Lin Moyu collected the soul crystals and examined the tree bark.

The tree bark emitted a powerful aura, not weaker than that of a Great Dao realm artifact. Given that even a piece of tree bark was so powerful, its origin must be extraordinary.

Lin Moyu frowned: "This tree bark comes from Yin Wood? But how could Yin Wood have shed tree bark?"

Lin Moyu didn't think someone had damaged Yin Wood. The edges of the tree bark were relatively intact, more like it had shed naturally.

Suddenly, the tree bark emitted a peculiar aroma that entered Lin Moyu's soul, causing a surge of desire to eat it.

Lin Moyu's soul trembled slightly as he suppressed this abnormal urge.

However, when he looked at Little Python, it had turned its head, eyes shining with desire to eat the tree bark.

Lin Moyu chuckled lightly: "Do you want to eat it?"

Little Python nodded: "Very much."

Lin Moyu said: "If eating it will kill you, will you still eat it?"

Little Python trembled, its eyes quickly clearing up, but soon they shone again: "Master, I still want to eat it."

Lin Moyu slapped Little Python heavily: "Don't eat it. This thing might really kill you."

Little Python was startled and regained its senses for a moment, but soon its eyes shone again.

Lin Moyu raised his hand, and Dream World Fire enveloped the tree bark, completely isolating the aroma it emitted. Little Python finally returned to normal.

Lin Moyu realized that something was off about the tree bark.

It not only attracted others to eat it but also had a connection with a distant existence.

This connection was very faint and intangible. Lin Moyu only discovered some clues after careful examination.

It could be imagined that this piece of tree bark was released by Yin Wood itself, acting as bait to lure void beasts to eat it.

As for what would happen after eating it, Lin Moyu didn't know yet, but it certainly wouldn't be good.

"Could it be that Yin Wood has developed spiritual intelligence?"

"Or has it found a new master?"

Lin Moyu speculated in his heart, casting a fire line: "Little Python, follow me."

Little Python immediately followed the fire line into the Yin Wood small soul domain.

As they passed through layers of mist, the Yin Wood small soul domain seemed extremely quiet, with few spirit beasts along the way.

Occasionally, they encountered a few, but they weren't very strong.

Little Python wondered: "Why are there so few void beasts in the Yin Wood small soul domain?"

Lin Moyu said: "Maybe they're all at Yin Wood."

Little Python was startled: "You mean they all ate the tree bark and gathered at Yin Wood?"

Lin Moyu casually said: "Should be. We'll know once we get there."

Lin Moyu sat on Little Python with his eyes closed, a fire line leading the way. Following the faint connection between the tree bark and Yin Wood, they headed towards Yin Wood.

Along the way, Lin Moyu sensed his Great Thousand World.

Since he had separated numerous illusory bodies and even let all his liches evolve the Great Dao, the Great Thousand World had accelerated its evolution.

For the beings in the Great Thousand World, this evolution was imperceptible, but for Lin Moyu, the changes were very clear.

He could clearly feel his world growing stronger, and this strength was continuously influencing the Middle Thousand Worlds, increasing their power.

In the past, worlds like his could only support up to the Super God Realm. Once they reached that level, they had to break through the world's constraints and enter a larger world to progress further.

Now, the upper limits of those Middle Thousand Worlds were being raised, no longer just the Super God Realm but potentially the True God Realm.

The specific rules would naturally form during the evolution process. Lin Moyu didn't need to intervene unless he, as the world's master, had his own ideas and wanted to change the rules manually.

In the Small Thousand Worlds, souls were beginning to inhabit them.

Special soul bodies condensed from the Bone Hell, ranging from strong to weak. The weakest ones had nowhere to go and could only enter the Small Thousand Worlds.

There, they would nurture and become true living beings. The entire world was evolving in a positive direction. The most crucial thing was that the illusory bodies Lin Moyu created using the Buddhist race's Three Lives Secret Technique as a base and his own Great Dao as the root were not avatars but better than avatars.

The existence of many illusory bodies made the connection between Lin Moyu and the Great Thousand World more solid.

Even though they were separated by a small soul domain, Lin Moyu could clearly sense changes happening in his own world.

If there was any danger in the great world, he could know about it immediately and return.

Little Python passed through layers of mist and finally reached the center of the Yin Wood small soul domain.

In sight were countless soul flames, with tens of thousands of powerful void beasts gathered there.

Little Python exclaimed: "Are all the void beasts of the Yin Wood small soul domain here?"

Lin Moyu said: "It should be said that only the strongest void beasts who survived the battles are here."

In a small soul domain, there were more than tens of millions of void beasts. They fought crazily for Yin Wood's tree bark, and the weak were all killed. Only the strongest remained.

The weakest among these tens of thousands of void beasts were all at the fifth level of the soul realm. They not only obtained the tree bark but also ate other void beasts to get here.

Each void beast was like a pilgrim, devoutly facing a prostrate figure.

Lin Moyu could feel that these void beasts were contributing their soul power, and the target was Yin Wood.

Yin Wood was extremely tall and large, at least a hundred million meters high in Lin Moyu's eyes, much bigger than the Soul-Eating Tree of the Grass Soul King.

It was just a single branch, with leaves but no roots. The cut end was smooth, as if it had been severed with a sharp blade.

This matched the legend that Yin Wood was a branch of the World-Building Tree, cut off during a great war.

Lin Moyu saw a soul flame and whispered: "Has it really developed spiritual intelligence?"

Little Python wondered: "Master, you say Yin Wood has developed spiritual intelligence?"

Lin Moyu slightly shook his head: "It's hard to say. It might have developed its own spiritual intelligence, or it might have been possessed by a void beast."

"But now we can basically confirm why Yin Wood attracted so many void beasts and why the kings who successfully made Yin Wood acknowledge them all died in the end."

Little Python instinctively asked: "Why?"

Lin Moyu said: "Because Yin Wood is absorbing the power of these void beasts. Once it drains them completely, they die."

"If someone becomes the king here, Yin Wood will think they'll also be drained eventually, so the kings of this small soul domain don't live long."

"The tree bark is the medium through which Yin Wood absorbs power, but it's also very attractive to void beasts. Eating the tree bark is the cause, and contributing their lives is the effect."

"Indeed, cause and effect are everywhere, even visible here in the cycle of causality."

Little Python felt a chill: "But if all the void beasts here die, who will Yin Wood absorb next?"

Lin Moyu chuckled: "After eating its fill, it can rest well for a while, waiting for the Yin Wood small soul domain to recover."
