Chapter 3696: Reversing Cause and Effect
"He won't tolerate me."
The Third Ancestor and the others looked at the Beast Emperor with puzzlement, clearly not understanding the meaning behind his words. Lin Moyu, lost in thought, glanced back at the world barrier: "Black Senior has arrived."
The King of the Boundary Sea, whose true name was Mo Hei, was called "Old Black" by the Third Ancestor and the Beast Emperor. He belonged to the Great Whale clan and initially lived in the Boundary Sea of the Origin Continent. After achieving the Great Dao, he entered the Water Great Dao.
After the Origin Continent's catastrophe, he sought to reclaim the position of Dao Lord of the Water Great Dao by re-entering the Origin Continent and the Boundary Sea, becoming the King of the Boundary Sea.
Now, as the Dao Lord of the Water Great Dao, the Third Ancestor and the Beast Emperor still referred to him as "Old Black," a nickname that didn't hold much significance to him.
Upon seeing Lin Moyu, the King of the Boundary Sea reacted similarly to the Beast Emperor, being startled by Lin Moyu's cultivation level.
Lin Moyu smiled: "Please, seniors, follow me."
He led the way, flying towards the Lizard God Realm. The journey was shrouded in thick mist, covering vast distances in the blink of an eye.
The Beast Emperor wondered: "Why haven't we seen any virtual beasts?"
The Third Ancestor also whispered: "It's indeed strange."
They had previously encountered virtual beasts in the Soul Void, even if they didn't consider them significant.
However, now, not a single virtual beast was seen, which was peculiar.
Lin Moyu didn't speak, continuing to fly forward, distancing themselves from the Origin Continent. Only when they were far away, roughly the distance of a small soul domain, did Lin Moyu stop: "Seniors, I have something to say, but I'm not sure if I should."
The Beast Emperor said: "Among us, there's nothing we can't discuss. Speak freely."
The Third Ancestor chuckled: "What are you thinking, little fox?"
Lin Moyu hesitated but eventually pulled out two primordial virtual treasures: the Soul-Devouring Fire Basin and the Soul-Heart King's Soul-Shaking Treasure Mountain.
The Soul-Devouring Fire Basin spewed forth flames, creating a sea of fire that surrounded them. The Soul-Shaking Treasure Mountain radiated a brilliant light, enveloping everyone.
The Third Ancestor was astonished: "These are primordial virtual treasures. How did they end up in your hands?"
Lin Moyu replied: "Over the years, I've killed several kings of small soul domains."
The others exchanged glances, shocked by what Lin Moyu had done. Killing the kings of small soul domains wasn't something to be taken lightly.
Even with primordial virtual treasures, becoming a Dao Lord didn't guarantee the ability to kill these kings.
The Third Ancestor seemed to realize something: "Lin young one, did you use the Great Dao Essence Fire?"
Lin Moyu said: "You're focusing on the wrong point, seniors. The important thing is what I'm about to say."
The Third Ancestor then understood why Lin Moyu had hesitated earlier: "What do you want to say?"
Lin Moyu said: "Based on my judgment, the world will of the Origin Continent has gained intelligence and self-awareness."
His words exploded like thunder in the minds of the others.
At their level, they naturally understood Lin Moyu's words.
For a world, the true endpoint for a cultivator is to become a Dao Lord. After achieving this, they must continue to strengthen their Great Dao through contests, eventually entering the Great Dao's true body. Only then can they be considered true Dao Lords.
Currently, the Third Ancestor and the Beast Emperor mastered projected Great Daos, not the true bodies of the Great Daos, which remained in the Origin Ancestral Land.
Once someone becomes a true Dao Lord, they will transcend their world, enter the Origin Ancestral Land, and reflect their Great Dao into the Origin Ancestral Land. This is the final destination for Dao Lords.
However, before entering the Origin Ancestral Land and mastering the true body of the Great Dao, one must inevitably transcend their own world.
They would no longer be Dao Lords under the world but would become Dao Sages above it.
Projected Great Daos exist within the world, while the true bodies of the Great Daos are above it.
When the Origin Ancestral Land descended, it firmly suppressed the entire Origin World using the power of the Great Dao's true body.
If the world will has gained intelligence, it would not allow anyone to transcend it, meaning their path to mastering the true body of the Great Dao would be cut off.
Once someone tries to transcend the world, the world will would erase them.
As Dao Lords within the world, they would find it difficult to prevail against the world will.
This outcome was despairing for many Dao Lords.
Mo Hei's expression turned serious, his voice low: "This isn't something to joke about. How did you come to this conclusion, Lin brother?"
Lin Moyu replied: "You all know I was granted heavenly teachings, which allowed me to interact with the world will. However, at the time, I didn't feel anything special."
"Recently, I've seen many worlds in the Soul Void and helped a small soul domain king transcend. I witnessed their struggle against the world will, which raised some doubts in my mind."
"That world will seemed different from the one on the Origin Continent."
"After several attempts, I acted out of bounds on the Origin Continent, intentionally provoking punishment, and each time, I received clear guidance from the heavenly teachings."
"You should also understand that the world will shouldn't behave this way. It should follow the grand trend without changing, but allow for minor adjustments."
"Especially during the Origin Continent's catastrophe, the fate of the World's Child reinforced my speculation to over seventy percent."
"The Beast Emperor's mention of the World's Child's last words brought my speculation to ninety percent."
"The world will of the Origin Continent has gained intelligence, perhaps not strong, but it must have its own thoughts."
"So, I'm warning you seniors to be cautious."
Lin Moyu's words were logical and convincing, and they had to believe him.
However, this was still just Lin Moyu's speculation and couldn't be fully confirmed.
At this moment, Lin Moyu pulled out a mirror: "Seniors should recognize this mirror."
The Beast Emperor's nose twitched: "This is the Qigu Mirror you obtained from the Illusory God's Child."
Lin Moyu said: "This mirror has the ability to reverse cause and effect, and it's most effective in the Soul Void."
"Today, with your witness, I'll use it to confirm the final link, turning my ninety percent speculation into either one hundred percent or zero."
Speculations have only two outcomes: correct or incorrect.
Therefore, Lin Moyu decided to verify it.
The Third Ancestor guessed what Lin Moyu was about to do: "This is dangerous."
Lin Moyu replied: "It doesn't matter; this is important. Even if it costs something, it must be done."
The others remained silent, knowing this had to be done. Since Lin Moyu chose to do this, it meant he was confident in his ability to escape unscathed.
Lin Moyu used his soul power to activate the Qigu Mirror, declaring loudly: "Using the Third Ancestor as the cause and transcendence as the effect, reverse cause and effect!"
The Qigu Mirror burst forth with dazzling light, and the Third Ancestor's figure appeared within it. Then, a world unfolded before them, which they recognized as something from the Origin Continent.
The Third Ancestor stood atop an unnamed mountain peak, gazing up at the sky. A massive, cold, and merciless eye appeared in the sky, and with just one glance, the Third Ancestor's body exploded!
