Chapter 4151: What Did Lin Moyu Do to the Beast Emperors

Suddenly, a large number of Dao Wild Beasts flew out from several filth pools. These pools nurtured countless Dao Wild Beast bodies, just waiting for souls to arrive and take over. There were many sources for these souls when a beast died, some of their souls would return to the pool, enter a new body, and become a new Dao Wild Beast.

Now, with so many Dao Wild Beasts flying out of the pools at once, it meant a large number of beasts had just died. Only in such a situation would so many souls return in a short time, entering new bodies to become new Dao Wild Beasts. The origin of these beasts was clear it naturally pointed to Lin Moyu. He was the one who had killed them.

"Look, a Beast Emperor is coming out…"

The Lord of Power suddenly cried out. In the vision, a royal pool surged, and a Beast Emperor burst forth. The royal pool was different from ordinary filth pools; it only nurtured a single body the body of a Beast Emperor. When a Beast Emperor died, their soul would return to the pool and enter a new body, resulting in a new Beast Emperor.

This time, with a Beast Emperor flying out of the royal pool, it meant that one had died and their soul had just returned to a new body.

The Human Emperor said quietly, "Daoist Lin killed a Beast Emperor."

It hardly needed to be said the result was obvious.

Old Yin was about to speak when the Lord of Power cried out again, "Look at the royal pools!" The remaining royal pools all began to boil, and Beast Emperors emerged from each. All nine royal pools produced Beast Emperors, meaning all nine had died once. Old Yin was in disbelief, "Daoist Lin killed all nine Beast Emperors."

The Human Emperor said, "It seems so. I wonder if the mutant beast was also killed."

Old Yin replied, "Most likely. Daoist Lin's strength already far surpasses ours."

To be able to kill all nine Beast Emperors just that feat was beyond their imagination. It took two or three of them working together to deal with a single Beast Emperor, but Lin Moyu could kill nine on his own. If they compared, even if all the Eternals joined forces, they might not be his match.

An Yuyan said, "Stop guessing. If you want to know, just ask him when he gets back."

Old Yin agreed, "Right, no point in guessing. We'll ask Daoist Lin when he returns."

Lin Moyu entered the Great Wilderness again, crossing it a second time. This time, he was an Eternal, able to easily slay Beast Emperors without any worries.

Soon, he saw a royal pool and casually approached. Beside the pool, a Beast Emperor had just revived and was still adjusting to its new body. From a distance, it sensed someone approaching, whipped its head around, and let out a roar but before it could even make a sound, everything stopped. The Beast Emperor's roar was stifled, turning into a whimper like a puppy whose tail had been stepped on, and it turned to flee in panic. Territory, royal pool none of that mattered now. Survival was everything.

Even beasts with little intelligence feel fear; instinct might drive them to lash out before death. But a Beast Emperor, with greater intelligence, would suppress instinct and choose to run.

"Runs pretty fast," Lin Moyu chuckled. He hadn't intended to attack unless provoked. He lingered above the royal pool for a few moments, then slowly sank into it.

Lin Moyu was interested in the natural formations created by the various filth pools, and the royal pool was a good starting point.

In the Hengduan Mountains, the Eternals who had been watching for years were stunned by this scene. The fierce Beast Emperor, upon seeing Lin Moyu, fled. Even if Lin Moyu had killed it before, this reaction was hard to imagine. They couldn't fathom how he had killed them to inspire such terror.

The royal pool's Dao filth was many times denser than that of other pools, but it didn't affect Lin Moyu. At the bottom, he found a natural formation: 108 filth pools, connected by underground filth currents, forming a natural array with the royal pool as its core. The royal pool refined Dao filth, using the purer essence to nurture the Beast Emperor's body.

At first, the royal pool couldn't directly nurture a Beast Emperor body it could only produce Beast Kings. As it grew stronger, Beast Kings born from it would eventually become Beast Emperors and feed back into the royal pool, forming the current system. The royal pool's refinement of Dao filth was only preliminary.

Later, the Candle Dragon intervened, setting up another formation outside the natural one and connecting it. Thus, nine special filth pools and a core were created. The nine special pools further refined Dao filth; a small part remained, while most flowed to the final core. In the special pools, another beast body was nurtured one surpassing the Beast Emperor and showing mutations, which Lin Moyu called the Mutant Beast.

The Dao filth that reached the final core underwent a third refinement, surpassing ordinary Dao power and reverting to the primordial filth force of heaven and earth, which the Candle Dragon collected.

The Candle Dragon also granted intelligence to the Beast Emperors to strengthen them. In the early days, the beasts were suppressed by the Spirit Demon Clan. The Candle Dragon needed a long time to gather filth force, so he kept the balance and helped the beasts. Later, the Spirit Demon Clan developed their own interests, collecting Dao essence and maintaining balance rather than just suppressing the beasts. The Candle Dragon knew all about their actions but didn't interfere, understanding who had sent the Spirit Demon Clan and not daring to oppose the supreme of heaven and earth.

For countless years, this balance continued, with cultivators growing stronger and more Dao Lords appearing until the Burial Dao Valley incident. The Spirit Demon Clan feared cultivators would become too powerful and suppress the beasts, breaking the balance. Another deeper reason: the more Eternals there were, the more Daos they controlled, and the slower the collection of Dao essence.

That's why the Burial Dao Valley incident happened. Lin Moyu hadn't understood at first, but after hearing the Spirit Demon Clan's conversation at the Supreme Monument, he realized the truth. Nothing happens for a single reason; everything is a result of many factors coming together.

Both the Candle Dragon and the Spirit Demon Clan had their own goals. As the Beast Emperors grew more intelligent, they devised a method using special pools to nurture Mutant Beasts. The Candle Dragon didn't interfere by then, he had collected enough filth force and his plan was mostly complete. He no longer needed to maintain balance, as long as the beasts didn't destroy the world before his final plan was enacted.

Conveniently, the Beast Emperors sought out the Spirit Demon Clan, which also suited the Candle Dragon's interests. The beasts drove out the Spirit Demon Clan, and the Candle Dragon didn't need to offend the supreme of heaven and earth.
