Chapter 4070: Just Treat It as Leisure and Relaxation
The Heavenly Formation Dao Lord looked a bit tense. Over the years, the God of Light had not appeared, and now the Hundred Formation Tower was in Lin Moyu's hands it was easy to imagine that the God of Light was finished. Lin Moyu spoke quietly, "Heavenly Formation Dao Lord, I came to you for three things. First, to return the Hundred Formation Tower. Second, to settle our karma."
The Heavenly Formation Dao Lord replied in a low voice, "This is our first meeting, Daoist Lin. What karma could there be between us?"
Lin Moyu chuckled, "You lent the Hundred Formation Tower to the God of Light, and he used it to try to kill me. That's karma between us surely you understand."
The Heavenly Formation Dao Lord, who had some understanding of karma, naturally understood what Lin Moyu meant. He said, "Then how does Daoist Lin wish to resolve this karma?"
Lin Moyu continued, "Our karma could be great or small. If great, it could be a life and death struggle believe me, if we fought, it would be to the death. If small, it's simple: help me with one thing, and our karma is cleared."
The Heavenly Formation Dao Lord frowned. A newcomer was ordering him around and even claimed to have the power to kill him it sounded laughable. This was the Heaven and Earth Battlefield, and from the Dao Lord Hall to the front lines, countless formations had been set up by his own hand. This was his domain what could Lin Moyu possibly do to him? If he agreed to Lin Moyu's request, wouldn't that be humiliating?
He took out a treasure, another pagoda, taller and with more levels than the Hundred Formation Tower, containing even more formations. "This is my Thousand Formation Tower. The Hundred Formation Tower was just an obsolete item. The Thousand Formation Tower is a true treasure, able to control all kinds of formations on the battlefield."
He introduced the Thousand Formation Tower with pride, implying that it was extremely powerful and that Lin Moyu had nothing to compete with.
But before he could finish, Lin Moyu flicked his finger, sending out over a hundred divine runes. Some merged with the battlefield's formations in the air, while others entered the Thousand Formation Tower itself.
The Heavenly Formation Dao Lord's expression changed dramatically. In that instant, he felt the Thousand Formation Tower slipping from his control. It wasn't completely lost, but his connection to it was greatly weakened, and his control was much less than before. He also lost contact with several formations overhead they had been taken over.
He looked at Lin Moyu with fear. "What did you do?"
Lin Moyu said, "I'm just showing you, senior, that your formation skills are not on the same level as mine."
His words cut like a knife into the Heavenly Formation Dao Lord's soul harsh but true. As a master of formations, he knew Lin Moyu was right. Just those hundred or so divine runes proved Lin Moyu's mastery was above his own. In front of Lin Moyu, he felt a bit ridiculous.
Lin Moyu asked, "So, senior, have you decided?"
The Heavenly Formation Dao Lord gave a bitter smile. "Do I have a choice?"
If his formations were inferior, his greatest advantage was gone. Lin Moyu was right he was not a match. He might as well hear what Lin Moyu wanted before deciding.
Lin Moyu said, "I have a formation I'd like you to set up."
The Heavenly Formation Dao Lord looked puzzled. "With your skill, you need my help?"
Lin Moyu shook his head. "I can't set up this formation myself, and I don't have time. I can only ask you."
The Heavenly Formation Dao Lord asked, "What formation? Where?"
Lin Moyu replied, "It's my own creation. Set it up at Attainment Dao Cliff." He handed over a jade slip. "This contains part of the formation."
The Heavenly Formation Dao Lord's eyes lit up as he examined the jade slip, becoming excited as if he'd found a treasure. "This formation…" He could tell at a glance how profound it was the most advanced he'd ever seen. If he could comprehend it, it would greatly benefit his cultivation. Even without Lin Moyu's request, he would have set it up himself, and not just once, but repeatedly to study it.
As someone who had pursued formations all his life, seeing such a profound formation was thrilling. Lin Moyu had no doubt the other would agree and not just agree, but do his best. The pursuit of formation mastery was instinctive; there was no worry about him cutting corners.
Lin Moyu said, "If you gain any insight from this formation, consider it your fortune… Setting it up may require some rare materials."
The Heavenly Formation Dao Lord patted his chest. "No problem, leave the materials to me." As a long time Dao Lord, he had plenty of treasures and almost everything needed for the formation.
Lin Moyu said, "Then I'll trouble you. Here's the rest of the formation data please set it up as soon as possible."
The Heavenly Formation Dao Lord was already eager, putting away the data. "Don't worry, I'll head to Attainment Dao Cliff right away and set it up as fast as I can."
Lin Moyu handed him a bottle. "When you get there, please scatter the powder inside all over the cliff."
The Heavenly Formation Dao Lord agreed without hesitation. "No problem."
Lin Moyu said, "Then I'll take my leave."
The Heavenly Formation Dao Lord didn't try to keep him. After Lin Moyu left, he turned into a stream of light and flew toward Attainment Dao Cliff.
Lin Moyu looked in the direction of the cliff and muttered, "Hope it works."
He then went to find Shengxin.
Shengxin had already finished compiling information on all the Great Dao Lords in the Heaven and Earth Battlefield. Lin Moyu matched them with the inheritances he held and gave some of the sages' inheritances to Shengxin, asking her to distribute them.
There were no requirements or conditions he was simply giving them away. In Shengxin's eyes, Lin Moyu was selfless. Over the past twenty years, he had blocked so many Dao Wild Beasts for the battlefield, making him not just selfless, but a truly good person.
Shengxin knew Lin Moyu was about to set out and said with some concern, "Daoist Lin, have a safe journey."
Lin Moyu smiled, "Thank you, Daoist Shengxin. I value my life I won't die easily."
Shengxin said, "I'm not worried about your safety in reaching the inner battlefield, just about the Land of Severed Daos."
Lin Moyu replied, "Since such a place exists in the world, there must be a reason. Going there is just seeing a different view maybe it'll be interesting. If it's nice, I might visit again for leisure and relaxation."
Shengxin was amused by his words, and her worries faded. "Daoist Lin, you really know how to joke. I'll be waiting for your safe return on the battlefield."
