Chapter 4105: The Little One Starts Working

What Lin Moyu accomplished shattered many people's long held beliefs, but they didn't realize that Lin Moyu only achieved this level through meticulous, step by step calculation. Among all the Great Dao Lords, the most excited was the Lord of Formations.

He suddenly realized that formations could be so powerful they could even deal with an Eternal. At the same time, he understood that, even as the Lord of Formations, he still had a long way to go. The Dao of Formations could only provide support, making his formations stronger and more effective, but it couldn't by itself allow him to arrange even more complex and powerful formations.

Previously, the Lord of Formations thought his path had reached its end. But now, it seemed he was only just beginning.

Apart from the Lord of Formations, the happiest was Saint Heart. The War Emperor's projection chuckled, "Well, see? He's fine." Saint Heart also smiled, "Grandfather, you were right."

The War Emperor said, "Now you can go find him."

Saint Heart shook her head, "No, I'm going to refine pills." With that, she flew toward the Dao Lord Hall, the War Emperor watching her leave with a smile and a glint of red light in his eyes. In the corner of the formation, beneath the earth, a point of crimson was boiling.

...

Lin Moyu and An Yuyan walked and chatted, discussing many things. An Yuyan spoke about what happens after becoming Eternal, things to watch out for, and so on. By the time they reached the Ten Million Origin Mountains, An Yuyan's backlash injuries were almost healed.

An Yuyan stretched, showing off her graceful figure. "Lin Daoist, your Immortality Great Dao is truly miraculous."

Lin Moyu replied, "Daoist Yuyan, when you were in the Origin Land, did you ever study the Immortality Great Dao?"

An Yuyan answered, "People like us only believe in our own Dao. We don't study others' Daos. Every Eternal has taken their own Dao to the limit, focusing on one thing to reach this level. How could we go study someone else's Dao?"

Lin Moyu said, "Actually, there's nothing wrong with learning a bit about other Daos even just the basics. Even if you don't master them, understanding more Daos helps you comprehend the whole universe."

"Daoist Yuyan, do you know what lies beyond the heavens?"

An Yuyan replied, "Beyond the heavens is chaos. In chaos, there are other worlds like ours."

Lin Moyu asked again, "Do you know what's behind that gate?"

An Yuyan shook her head. She'd never obtained that gate, so she didn't know. Historically, those who had entered the gate were vague about what lay beyond, even to themselves.

Lin Moyu said, "You're right. There are indeed many worlds like ours, called realms. Behind the gate is a realm that was destroyed, or rather, the ruins of a once great realm. That's why I call it the Gate of Realms."

An Yuyan paused in her steps. "A destroyed realm?"

Lin Moyu nodded. "Yes. That realm once flourished. The Human Emperor's Spirit Seizing Technique comes from one of its factions, called the Myriad Spirits Pavilion, which had a set of secret arts known as the Myriad Spirits Secret Arts. The Spirit Seizing Technique is just one of them. In the Myriad Spirits Pavilion, there were Saint Spirit level experts though 'Saint Spirit' doesn't necessarily mean stronger than an Eternal, since realms differ and strength can't be compared by rank. In their realm, Saint Spirit was a level beyond Eternal, having transcended the realm itself. But even so, they might not be able to defeat an Eternal from our world."

Lin Moyu felt that the realm of the Myriad Spirits Pavilion was inferior to his own, and so were their experts.

Since the conversation had gone this far, Lin Moyu continued, "Within the world, there are two kinds of filth and impurities. One is Dao filth, which gives rise to Dao Wild Beasts. Dao Wild Beasts are born to devour Daos and destroy worlds that's their instinct. The other is the world's own filth, which gives rise to Soul Eating Spirits. Soul Eating Spirits are born to devour living beings, but they exist outside the world, wrapping around it and isolating it from chaos. That's their instinct."

"I think that if we take the final step, we'll have to leave this world, and the result will be to face the Soul Eating Spirits directly. Only by passing through them can one truly transcend. The Soul Eating Spirits should be the last trial."

An Yuyan took time to digest Lin Moyu's words before saying, "So that's how it is. We never saw it so clearly before." She had discussed the final step with others many times, but never as thoroughly as Lin Moyu explained now.

Lin Moyu said, "The reason I'm telling you this is that the Cause and Effect Great Dao is the best Dao for transcendence. With it, you can easily comprehend other Daos, draw analogies, and complete your final step."

An Yuyan looked at Lin Moyu with beautiful eyes. "You know what my final step is?"

Every Eternal's final step is their own secret, never shared with others. An Yuyan had never told anyone, not even Lin Moyu.

Lin Moyu replied, "I can guess a bit. Your final step is probably to change cause and effect, to go against karma and defy fate. But it's hard to comprehend that step. I still suggest starting from other Daos try to comprehend a few others, and you might gain new insights."

An Yuyan thought over Lin Moyu's words and felt he made sense, especially about matters beyond the world, which piqued her interest.

She sighed, "I always thought becoming Eternal was the end. I never considered the final step. Now, after hearing you, I want to try."

Lin Moyu smiled, "You should. The universe is wondrous just one more step and you'll see the beauty. You can't give up now."

As they walked through the Ten Million Origin Mountains, they noticed something odd: there wasn't a single Dao Wild Beast. The last time Lin Moyu passed through, there were many, but now, none appeared.

Lin Moyu wasn't surprised. "Looks like the little one has started working."

The soulless beast he released was traveling along the underground filth currents, and its first stop was probably the pool outside the Ten Million Origin Mountains. Most of the Dao Wild Beasts in the mountains came from the outside pools. If something happened to the pools, the beasts would rush over. The current state of the mountains showed that the soulless beast had begun its work.

All beings have their nature, and the soulless beast's nature is to purify Dao Wild Beasts. In doing so, it grows stronger.

Chatting happily, Lin Moyu and An Yuyan passed through the mountains and soon reached the first filth pool.
