Chapter 3837: What Exactly Is It

Lin Moyu didn't believe things could be as simple as the Morning Bell Emperor claimed.

The Lord of Time wasn't a fool. Even if he didn't closely inspect the Void Soul Essence Stone, just the scene from earlier already seemed off.

He'd dealt with Emperor remnants before, and they were extremely difficult to handle.

A clone of the Lord of Time wouldn't be any weaker than an Emperor's remnant soul.

Even facing the Morning Bell Emperor, it shouldn't have been so fragile.

The clone of the Lord of Time just now felt to Lin Moyu like it wasn't much stronger than a Great Dao Lord. In fact, Lin Moyu himself could have killed it without the Morning Bell Emperor's help.

When something is out of the ordinary, there's always a reason. The Lord of Time must have anticipated this.

"Could he be turning the tables?"

Just as this thought arose, the Morning Bell Emperor's expression changed sharply. "Shi You, are you seeking death!"

The Morning Bell Emperor's figure also vanished like a bubble. Seeing this, Lin Moyu's heart skipped a beat.

Sure enough, things weren't that simple the Lord of Time really did have a backup plan.

"What's happening outside?"

Something must have happened outside, but he couldn't leave.

Even if he could, he wouldn't go unless he was sure it was safe.

After all, this was a clash between two eternal beings. For a small fry like him, getting caught up in it meant certain death.

"I'd better keep exploring the spirit realm. The Void Soul Essence Stone probably isn't the core product of the Spacetime Spirit Realm, or the Morning Bell Emperor wouldn't have given it up so easily."

Lin Moyu continued deeper into the spirit realm. Now that he understood the path, he just needed to keep heading toward the most chaotic areas.

He kept changing direction, long since lost, only knowing to keep moving toward chaos.

There was no way out now. After the Morning Bell Emperor left, Lin Moyu realized he couldn't leave the Spacetime Spirit Realm at all.

If something happened to the Morning Bell Emperor, he might really be trapped here forever.

So before the outside world resolved itself, his best bet was to find a way out.

Both the Morning Bell Emperor and the Lord of Time were schemers, each acting for their own interests.

The spatial-temporal chaos was nearly at its limit. Lin Moyu's soul was now in a region split into nearly ten thousand separate spacetime zones.

He had to use his own spacetime power to pull these different regions together, which was rapidly draining his strength.

If his power ran out completely, spacetime would explode, splitting him into over ten thousand pieces.

Each soul fragment would enter a different spacetime, making resurrection nearly impossible.

"I should be close!"

In Lin Moyu's senses, the chaos had reached its peak he should be near the core of the spirit realm.

He charged into the chaos again, his whole being transmitted through the turbulent spacetime.

This time, the transmission lasted a long three seconds.

When Lin Moyu regained his senses, he found that the chaotic spacetime had calmed, and he was in a relatively stable space.

Dazzling, piercing light shot straight into his soul he could see it even with his eyes closed.

These lights carried spacetime power, drilling directly into his soul not necessarily his present soul, but possibly his past or future soul as well.

This was something Lin Moyu had never experienced before.

Once he adapted, he saw what lay ahead.

Two treasure phantoms intersected here.

A bell and a drum.

The Morning Bell and the Twilight Drum were evolving here the Morning Bell unleashing the Space Great Dao, the Twilight Drum beating out the Time Great Dao.

Bell and drum sounds collided along the Great Daos, fusing into spacetime power that spread outward, permeating the entire spirit realm.

Where the Great Daos collided, a kind of "eye of the storm" formed a zone of calm.

Lin Moyu gazed at the two innate origin treasure projections. He knew these were not the true Morning Bell and Twilight Drum, but their projections.

However, these projections had been arranged by special means and, barring accidents, could exist for a long time.

"But the Twilight Drum Emperor is already gone why does the drum's projection still exist?"

"And why do I sense a very unusual aura here, something I've never encountered before? It's not a Great Dao, but it's no weaker than one."

Lin Moyu examined the Morning Bell and Twilight Drum and found that both projections were shrouded in an unfamiliar aura. It was this aura that allowed the projections to persist.

With a thought, he used his soul to draw a simple divine rune.

The rune flew over, circled the two treasures, and returned.

Now the rune was stained with that unique aura. The rune had no other use, but Lin Moyu put it away, hoping to investigate its source later.

He had reached the true core of the Spacetime Spirit Realm. What came next was the key.

Lin Moyu focused all his vision on the area where the Great Daos collided, never closing his eyes no matter how blinding the light.

He didn't just watch with his eyes his soul's senses were also fully concentrated on this area.

All the secrets of the Spacetime Spirit Realm should be here.

After a long while, Lin Moyu finally noticed something unusual.

After the two forces collided to form spacetime power, it didn't immediately disperse it was compressed again.

This compression wasn't a one-off, but happened repeatedly.

The two innate origin treasures compressed the spacetime power again and again, countless times in an instant, until it could be compressed no further.

Finally, the spacetime power exploded, tearing open spacetime.

The tear was tiny, only the size of a pinhole, but something still shot out from it.

As soon as these things entered the Spacetime Spirit Realm, they were immediately compressed by the two treasures.

They were squeezed into even smaller pieces some remained here, others were flung away by spacetime power.

Lin Moyu watched until his soul's eyes bled, his soul trembling and unstable, but he finally saw clearly.

The place torn open by spacetime power, only the size of a pinhole, was exactly the same as the place the World Tree branch and Chaos Seed had gone.

It was a place filled with chaos, and what flew out of the crack was chaotic energy.

Chaotic energy can evolve all things. Once it entered the Spacetime Spirit Realm, under the influence of spacetime power, it gained spacetime attributes.

Then, as it was compressed, its impurities were expelled, leaving behind the essence.

Over ninety-nine percent of it was impurity. These impurities gathered together to form the Void Soul Essence Stone.

The remaining essence became something Lin Moyu didn't recognize.

The two treasures had existed for countless ages, so the accumulation shouldn't be small, but now Lin Moyu saw only a thumb-sized piece.

Apparently, the Morning Bell Emperor would sometimes come to collect the accumulated materials.

Perhaps this was related to how the Morning Bell Emperor had advanced so far beyond eternity.

That step beyond eternity is hard to take Human Sovereign had struggled for years and barely made progress. Except for the owner of the Ferrying Calamity Boat, who had taken half a step, the Morning Bell Emperor was the furthest along Lin Moyu had seen.

"What exactly is this!"

After much deliberation, Lin Moyu braced himself and reached out to try and grasp the tiny, fingernail-sized object.
