Chapter 3662: You Want to Achieve Enlightenment, So Do I

This time, Lin Moyu didn't worry about damaging the innate treasures. He used a more direct method, striking the Grass Soul King with the Catastrophic Scepter. The undead legion and origin techniques were just precautions.

Lin Moyu had experience from before and knew that these kings weren't easy to deal with. Perhaps the Grass Soul King had some hidden tricks.

Facing the Catastrophic Scepter, the Grass Soul King struggled desperately, its screams piercing through the ice. The branches of the Soul-Devouring Tree transformed into light swords, slashing towards Lin Moyu in dense waves.

The ice layer cracked and exploded, sending ice blocks flying like cannonballs. Lin Moyu swung the Catastrophic Scepter, shattering most of the ice blocks, while using soul power to withstand a few.

Fortunately, he had used the Gather Power technique to boost his realm, or he might not have been able to endure.

The Catastrophic Scepter clashed with the Soul-Devouring Tree's branches, breaking them with a loud crash. The light swords were shattered into pieces, unable to withstand the Catastrophic Scepter.

The Grass Soul King wailed in agony, as it was a companion creature to the Soul-Devouring Tree. When the tree was damaged, the Grass Soul King was also injured.

As the Catastrophic Scepter drew near, the Grass Soul King showed a terrified expression and tried to flee. However, the soul gem on the Catastrophic Scepter glowed, exerting a pulling force that immobilized the Grass Soul King, eliminating its last chance to escape.

The Catastrophic Scepter struck the Grass Soul King with great force, causing it to shatter into pieces. The soul gem sparkled, absorbing all the shattered soul fragments of the Grass Soul King.

Lin Moyu noticed that the soul gem had become brighter and more powerful. He sensed a hint of pleasure from it, as if it were urging him to find more souls like this.

Suddenly, a voice came from the Soul-Devouring Tree: "Who are you? Why did you kill my king?"

Lin Moyu was slightly surprised, looking at the Soul-Devouring Tree. On the tree, a small grass was swaying.

He recognized it as a remnant of the Grass Soul King. "I didn't expect that even after your main body died, your remnant could still survive."

The small grass whispered: "You are a cultivator from the real world. Why did you come to kill my king?"

Lin Moyu chuckled: "There's no reason. Many things happen without a reason. You wanted to achieve enlightenment, and so do I. When you fought for the Soul Refining Furnace, did you ever think about why?"

The small grass paused: "So the Soul Refining Furnace was yours. You used it as bait to make us fight each other to our mutual disadvantage."

Lin Moyu smiled lightly: "At first, I didn't think of it that way, but now it seems plausible. Well, your remnant should also disperse. Rest in peace."

The Grass Soul King's main body was dead, and its remnant couldn't last long. Saying a few words was already its limit.

The small grass dissipated into mist, and the Soul-Devouring Tree let out mournful cries, as if lamenting the Grass Soul King's passing. As its companion creature, the Soul-Devouring Tree's instincts didn't want to see the Grass Soul King die.

Lin Moyu felt a surge of angry intent from the Soul-Devouring Tree, which now regarded him as an enemy. The tree's branches moved slowly, ready to attack at any moment.

With a light laugh, Lin Moyu gently placed the Catastrophic Scepter on the Soul-Devouring Tree. "Behave and don't provoke me."

The Soul-Devouring Tree trembled violently and quickly calmed down. Although its instincts disliked Lin Moyu, they feared death even more.

Lin Moyu said: "That's more like it!"

A phantom body flew out and landed on the Soul-Devouring Tree, beginning to refine it. With the Catastrophic Scepter holding it in place, the Soul-Devouring Tree was obedient and didn't resist, allowing the phantom body to complete the refinement easily.

Once refined, the small soul domain that originally belonged to the Grass Soul King now belonged to Lin Moyu.

Lin Moyu manipulated the small soul domain, merging it with his own. The domain changed shape like cotton, and the vacuum zones were gradually covered by mist, becoming smaller.

Wherever the chaotic mist passed, it smoothed out the vacuum zones, eliminating dangers. Although the small soul domain occasionally had dangerous areas, they were fewer and safer compared to the vacuum zones.

As the small soul domains merged, the chaotic mist began to flow between them.

Lin Moyu discovered that the Grass Soul King's original domain had little chaotic mist left. However, now the mist was emerging from all corners, increasing in density.

"These chaotic mists aren't coming from other small soul domains. It's strange; where are they coming from?"

"It seems that the larger the small soul domain, the denser the chaotic mist. The void beasts living inside benefit more."

"As the master of three small soul domains, I receive the greatest benefits."

The three small soul domains finally merged, and an invisible force landed on Lin Moyu.

This force had appeared before, feeling like a reward from the Void Realm's Great Dao.

Lin Moyu's realm naturally rose significantly, though he didn't break through to the middle stage of the fourth level of the soul. He was much stronger than before.

If he could merge another small soul domain, Lin Moyu believed he could enter the middle stage of the fourth level of the soul.

This rate of improvement was astonishing, only slightly slower than refining soul crystals.

"The Void Realm is truly my treasure trove."

Lin Moyu felt at ease in the Void Realm, as if it were prepared for him.

After the small soul domains fully merged, the Soul-Devouring Tree, the Soul-Corroding Fire Basin, and the Yin Wood all shook simultaneously. The three innate treasures resonated with each other, releasing powerful energy.

The chaotic mist in the small soul domain increased and thickened.

Lin Moyu frowned, muttering to himself: "What's happening? Why are these three innate treasures resonating?"

"I can feel that the small soul domains have become stronger in the resonance. Each is more powerful than before."

"Perhaps the more small soul domains I merge, the stronger they become."

"What if I merge ten or even a hundred small soul domains? Could they become as powerful as a large spirit city?"

"However, large spirit cities have innate origin treasures, which small soul domains can't compare to."

Lin Moyu thought that even a broken branch of an innate origin treasure could support a small soul domain, showing how formidable these treasures were.

Lin Moyu felt he was thinking too far ahead and should focus on the present.

"For now, I have three small soul domains—those of the Giant Face Lion King, the Grass Soul King, and the Yin Wood King. Two of them are severely injured, and the Yin Wood King is a special case."

"I used clever tactics against them, but facing a king in their prime won't be easy."

"I need to think of another strategy. If I use the Soul Refining Furnace as bait again, it might work, but doing it too many times will create weaknesses and might attract a group attack."

"If I don't use the Soul Refining Furnace as bait and attack them directly, prime kings will be difficult to defeat."

"I need a foolproof plan."

He sat in the void, deep in thought.
