Chapter 4097: Forcing You to Make a Move
A glint of insight flashed in Lin Moyu's eyes, as if he had understood something, and his expression was extremely pleased. He looked injured, but he didn't care at all. His words "When I knock again, it will be the time I achieve the Dao" showed his absolute confidence in opening the Gate of Eternity. This attempt was just a trial, and he stopped at the surface, showing no attachment or temptation toward the Gate of Eternity. This also demonstrated Lin Moyu's unshakeable Dao heart.
Many Great Dao Lords fell because they couldn't resist the temptation of the Gate of Eternity, forcing themselves onward and refusing to let go, which ultimately led to their demise. Everything Lin Moyu showed his search for the right place, his arrangement of formations demonstrated his wisdom and his unshakable Dao heart.
After finishing, Lin Moyu left Jidao Mountain without looking back. The formation he left behind remained, not withdrawn, to be used next time. This formation was profound and complex, containing Lin Moyu's understanding of formation Dao; if a formation grandmaster saw it, they would surely regard it as a treasure.
After he left, a thin line of blood suddenly appeared in the sky, landing beside the formation. The bloodline circled the formation a few times, then shot back into the sky and vanished. The bloodline was much thinner than a hair, hidden in the light and hard to detect. After it left, the core of the formation seemed to move slightly, as if a pair of eyes had appeared.
Far away, Lin Moyu smiled to himself, thinking, "You finally couldn't resist." Everything he did was to lure out the Lord of Curses. The Lord of Curses' biggest fear now was that Lin Moyu would succeed in breaking through to eternity and return to the Immortality Great Dao. If that happened, the Lord of Curses' entire plan would fail.
Lin Moyu's cultivation speed was abnormal whether he advanced quickly or slowly, the Lord of Curses couldn't predict. Lin Moyu might stagnate for millions of years like other Great Dao Lords, or he might break through to eternity in a very short time. The Lord of Curses was too cautious, probing several times but never daring to truly strike. So this time, Lin Moyu pretended to knock on the Gate of Eternity, to trick the Lord of Curses: "I'm about to achieve the Dao. If you don't act now, it will be too late." Clearly, his plan worked, drawing the Lord of Curses' attention.
Lin Moyu calculated in his heart, "No matter how prepared you are, you'll have to make a move now. If you won't act, I'll force you to act."
After leaving Jidao Mountain, Lin Moyu headed toward Chengdao Cliff, flying slowly, stopping and starting along the way, as if admiring the scenery. His aura was gradually calming, as if he hadn't yet recovered from his attempt at the Gate of Eternity. As his aura settled, a white light appeared on his body, and his injuries from before slowly healed.
Lin Moyu's appearance suggested he was going to Chengdao Cliff to comprehend the path of the Lord of Slaughter's enlightenment, to gain more insight and prepare for his next attempt at the Gate of Eternity. Judging by his demeanor, the next attempt wouldn't be far off maybe a year or two, or even next month. The formation at Jidao Valley was still there, ready to be used again at any time.
A few days later, Chengdao Cliff appeared in his view. At that moment, a filth tide descended. Filth filled the sky, blocking out the sun and obscuring vision. Filth tides were common in this area, occurring regularly, and were nothing unusual. But this time, Lin Moyu sensed something off.
"So, you finally made a move!"
His mind was clear, but on the surface he acted oblivious, continuing to walk through the filth tide. The tide grew stronger, converging on Lin Moyu. Only then did he seem to notice the anomaly.
"Who's there!"
With a low shout, a massive force swept out, dispersing the filth tide. In an instant, a red light flared, filling his vision. The crimson light was nauseating, drilling into the soul. Anyone below the Great Dao realm would have their cultivation damaged just by smelling it; weaker cultivators might die on the spot. At the Lord of Curses' level, just releasing his aura could shatter the world.
Lin Moyu keenly sensed that within the red light, besides the Lord of Curses' own power, there was also a faint aura of Dao Wild Beasts.
"It seems that last time he entered the core of the Great Wilderness, he didn't come away empty handed. Who knows what he's hiding better be careful."
Lin Moyu never underestimated any opponent, especially not the Lord of Curses.
Red light enveloped everything. Lin Moyu, unwilling to sit and wait, acted with a thought and struck out with a palm.
"Great Dao World Ending Palm!"
The palm print swept across the world, shattering the red light. Countless undead servants surged forward, following the palm print and unleashing their full power to clear a path for Lin Moyu. The Sword Dao Spirit appeared on Lin Moyu's shoulder, unleashing the Sword Great Dao, transforming into a sharp sword to cut a path.
Lin Moyu attacked decisively, wasting no time first break out, then talk.
The red light was shattered, revealing the true body behind it: a sea of crimson blood. The blood sea boiled, surging in waves to block Lin Moyu's escape. The World Ending Palm was scattered by the waves, the undead servants thrown apart, but the Sword Dao Spirit, with a piercing sword cry, sliced through the waves, opening a path through the blood sea.
Lin Moyu snorted coldly. The Space Dao Spirit, True Fire Dao Spirit, and Scarlet Blood Dao Spirit appeared. The Scarlet Blood Dao Spirit also raised a giant wave, carrying corrosive curse power to sweep at the blood sea. The Scarlet Blood Dao Spirit's crimson tide and the blood sea looked almost identical, seemingly from the same source. Lin Moyu knew they truly were related.
The Lord of Curses' origins were complex; even the other Eternal Lords didn't know the whole story, and Lin Moyu only knew a little. He was indeed connected to the Scarlet Blood Great Dao.
The two forces collided, the Scarlet Blood Dao Spirit shrieking as it clashed with the blood waves, holding its ground. The True Fire Dao Spirit spewed flames, igniting the world around them. The true fire set the blood sea ablaze, and a muffled groan came from within. The True Fire burned true spirits; since the blood sea was part of the Lord of Curses, burning it with true fire caused him harm. The blood sea shrank back under the flames.
The Space Dao Spirit waved its tiny hand. "Space Shatter!"
The space ahead shattered, taking the blood sea with it. The Space Dao Spirit used the most direct method to force open a path.
"Space Shift!"
The Space Dao Spirit opened a passage, instantly transporting Lin Moyu a great distance. Farther away, the blood sea boiled, its immense power twisting space and forcibly dragging Lin Moyu back to reality. But by now, the blood sea's encirclement was half broken.
"Great Dao World Ending Palm!"
Lin Moyu struck again, unleashing hundreds of palms in an instant. Without increasing his cultivation, he used his full current strength, and the World Ending Palm was already stronger than most Great Dao Lords could muster.
Hundreds of World Ending Palms blasted open the way ahead. The Space Great Dao acted at the same time, and the Sword Dao Spirit was instantly teleported back from afar. Countless undead servants were summoned, all using the Metal Great Dao to empower the Sword Dao Spirit.
The Sword Dao Spirit transformed into a golden sword, infused with the Metal Great Dao, incomparably sharp, and slashed at the blood sea.
Finally, the blood sea was breached, and Lin Moyu shot out in a stream of light.
