Chapter 4025: He's Different, He Can't Break Free

Lin Moyu was stunned he never expected that someone as brash as Antares would be so particular about love. Not only was Lin Moyu surprised, but so was Long Yi, the Profound Yin Great Dao Lord and dragon empress. As the dragon empress of her world, she knew exactly what dragon nature was like. Even in different worlds, dragon races were largely the same domineering, lustful, spreading their seed everywhere, resulting in countless mixed blood dragons. She had tried to curb this many times, but with little effect.

So when she was drawn to Antares's pure yang aura and wanted him as her mate and dragon emperor, she never imagined he would refuse. Long Yi's eyes grew brighter, as if she'd found a lotus in a muddy world. Her voice trembled slightly with excitement: "You really think that way?"

Antares snorted, "Of course. If I can't have true love, I'd rather stay single forever. If you want to force me to breed, I'd rather die."

Long Yi's voice quivered, "I understand. I was wrong before. I'll take my leave for now." With that, she turned and vanished into the depths of the void.

Lin Moyu sighed and patted Antares on the head. "I never thought you were not just an old virgin dragon, but a pure hearted one too."

Antares snorted, "Is she really gone? She won't come back to catch me, right?"

Lin Moyu replied, "Relax, she's gone."

With that reassurance, Antares finally breathed easy. "Good, now she probably won't try to force me anymore. Instead, she'll try to court me, and eventually fall in love with me."

Lin Moyu was about to praise Antares for his change of heart, but was caught off guard by this sudden shift. He stared blankly, "What do you mean?"

Antares snorted, "You're really slow. I mean, only this way will she pursue me, fall deeply in love, and eventually we'll become Dao partners. Then she'll listen to me, and we'll be a perfect couple."

Lin Moyu was speechless for a while before finally saying, "So you're plotting against her. If you wanted to be with her, why not just go? Didn't you hear? She wanted you as the Dragon Emperor."

Antares replied, "You don't get it. If I was forced to go, even as Dragon Emperor, it would be an empty title. I'm just a Dao Lord, she's a Great Dao Lord she'd suppress me completely. And if she forced me, would she treasure me? Once I'm no use, she'd kick me aside. But now, she'll see I'm different from other dragons. A pure hearted dragon like me is rare. Didn't you notice her expression change? She won't give up she'll pursue me, and then I can take the lead."

Listening to Antares's analysis, Lin Moyu realized he'd underestimated him. He always thought Antares wasn't very smart, but now it seemed he'd been wrong this was a textbook case of playing hard to get.

Antares said proudly, "Now you see, I'm not stupid, just don't like to use my brain. But if I do, who can compare?"

Seeing how smug he was, Lin Moyu ignored him. "Let's go, time to get back to business. The world will is awakening we don't have much time."

Antares jumped in alarm. "Let's hurry, then."

The two hurried back. Lin Moyu explained the detailed process to Antares and gave him the Heaven Covering Stone and Immortal Jade. Antares, howling in pain, split his soul in two one third refining the Heaven Covering Stone, the other two thirds refining the Immortal Jade. The soul wrenching pain had Antares screaming all the way, and Lin Moyu suspected even the screams were half acted, half real.

By the time they returned to the World Sealing Dao Lord's world, there were already two Antareses. Lin Moyu said, "Don't waste time get started." Antares nodded and self destructed without hesitation.

The soul that refined the Heaven Covering Stone exploded instantly, and the remaining two thirds vanished as well. The Origin Continent mourned, torrential rain poured down. This time, not even a month had passed since the last Dao Lord's fall another one had "died." But those on the Outer Great Dao and the Origin Continent seemed used to it. So what if someone died? They always came back.

A Dao Lord sensed it and confirmed that the new Dragon God of the dragon race had fallen. One would expect some reaction from the dragon race, but there was none. They seemed used to it, as if every Dao Lord's fall was just a fake, and their Dragon God would return as well.

With the Immortal Jade's power, Antares's soul was being reborn, though the process was slow at least a year or more. Suddenly, Lin Moyu looked ahead as space split open and Long Yi reappeared.

"What happened?" Long Yi asked urgently, her gaze falling on Antares with some confusion.

Lin Moyu said, "We're working on a way to fake death and revive."

Long Yi seemed to understand. "You're trying to break free from that world?"

Lin Moyu nodded, "Exactly."

Long Yi sensed carefully, then frowned. "Something's wrong. Can you tell me your method? I feel like something isn't right."

Lin Moyu didn't fully trust her. "You tell me what's wrong first."

Long Yi said, "He's different. He can't break free."

By "he," she meant Antares he was different from the others. Lin Moyu was stunned, then realized she was right. Antares was a dragon, born from the yin yang origin, and now the Dao Lord of the Yang Dragon Dao, representing the yang origin of the Origin Continent's yin yang source.

Other people's true spirit imprints were just on the world's surface and could be erased at any time. But Antares's true spirit imprint was like a brand on the world almost impossible to remove. Plus, Long Yi had tampered with Antares's true spirit and seemed to have a special connection to it.

After thinking it over, Lin Moyu decided to trust Long Yi and explained his method. Since there was no conflict of interest, there was no harm in sharing.

Long Yi said, "I don't know what your Heaven Covering Stone and Immortal Jade are, but this fake death method works for ordinary beings it's useless for creatures born from the world's yin yang origin."

"His true spirit isn't just an imprint at least part of the true spirit itself is in that world."

Lin Moyu frowned, "Then what do we do?"

Long Yi thought for a moment, then decided, "I have a secret art that I stumbled upon it's very effective for true spirits. Since you're from the same world, you can use this secret art to protect his true spirit and help him truly break free."
