Chapter 4178: What You Can Do When the Rules Are Disrupted
There was a hint of shock in Candle Dragon's eyes very few things in this world could truly surprise him. Perhaps it was because Candle Dragon was about to transcend, and his inner excitement made him lose control of his emotions for a moment.
Lin Moyu asked, "What happened?"
Candle Dragon replied, "Let's walk and talk!"
He used the rules to open a passage directly within the Dao Cloud, traveling with Lin Moyu toward the Origin Ancestral Land.
On the way, he explained, "Those guys actually traveled upstream through the underground currents, sneaking across the Hengduan Mountains, passing the outer battlefield, bypassing the formations, and appearing outside the Origin Ancestral Land."
Lin Moyu was amazed. "How did they manage that?"
Both the Hengduan Mountains and the outer battlefield had formations extending to the underground foul currents it shouldn't have been possible to sneak through. Candle Dragon said, "It must have been the mutated wild beasts. They tunneled through the underground source mountains, opening up a new path and evading the formations."
Lin Moyu joked, "Looks like we need to reassign responsibility at least seventy percent of the blame is yours."
After all, the wild beasts' intelligence came from Candle Dragon.
Candle Dragon didn't mind, saying, "Seventy percent, so be it. Doesn't matter anymore."
As they passed the Hengduan Mountains, Candle Dragon considered moving all the Eternals and heavenly beings to the Origin Ancestral Land. But Lin Moyu thought it unnecessary, since with himself there, everyone else was unimportant. In fact, he was a little selfish he wanted all the fate of heaven and earth for himself.
The more fate one possesses, the better whether for the final step or something else.
Lin Moyu's goal included becoming a Domain Lord, and the fate of heaven and earth might be crucial for that.
Using the rules of the world, Candle Dragon returned to the Origin Ancestral Land in an instant.
Between the Origin Ancestral Land and the outer battlefield, there was a thin membrane. The wild beasts were attacking it, and under the blows from the mutated wild beasts, that membrane would soon shatter.
"We're just in time," Candle Dragon said. In truth, he didn't care whether the wild beasts destroyed the Origin Ancestral Land; even if some Dao were damaged, it meant little to him. But he knew it mattered a lot to Lin Moyu he wanted to become Domain Lord and didn't want the Dao to be excessively damaged.
"I'll take care of it," Lin Moyu said quietly, sending an army of undead servants down from the Dao Cloud, charging straight at the Dao wild beasts.
The number of Dao wild beasts was staggering: billions of ordinary beasts, tens of thousands of beast kings, five Beast Emperors, and four mutated wild beasts.
Purely by brute force, the Dao wild beasts could easily crush the cultivators if not for formations, the cultivators would have been defeated long ago.
But Lin Moyu now led the charge. The undead army tore through the Dao wild beasts, mowing them down like wheat. Lin Moyu himself descended from the Dao Cloud, his aura heightened to half step transcendence.
"World Ending Palm of the Dao!"
His hands moved like shadows, palms sweeping across heaven and earth. All the frustration from dealing with the Soul Devouring Spirit Emperor earlier was unleashed now.
It didn't matter if it was a Beast Emperor or mutated wild beast Lin Moyu suppressed them all.
The four mutated wild beasts joined forces to resist the Dao World Ending Palm and charged at Lin Moyu. Their power surpassed ordinary Eternals and had reached the limit of the Dao Lord realm, but they were still a step short of half step transcendence. And at that level, numbers no longer made up for the gap.
Under Lin Moyu's furious assault, they were knocked out of the sky before they could even get close, crashing to the ground and losing any chance at retaliation. Palm after palm struck the earth, flattening it, and the aftershocks swept across the land countless wild beasts died in screams, and even the Beast Emperors couldn't withstand the blast.
Even without the undead army, the beasts couldn't endure Lin Moyu's attacks just the shockwaves reduced them to nothing.
A gap in realm could not be bridged with numbers.
The ground sunk, turning the once flat land into a basin. Source mountains collapsed, and the barrier between the outer battlefield and the Origin Ancestral Land was shattered by the aftershocks.
After this battle, the barrier was no longer needed. Though most wild beasts could still revive, Lin Moyu did not intend to give them that chance. He wanted to change the landscape of the domain and win it a long period of peace.
In his eyes, the Dao wild beasts were a sign that the world and domain themselves were imperfect. So, he would let this imperfection show itself completely, and then repair it. Candle Dragon was about to transcend, and then the world's rules would be without a manager. He wondered if the world would choose a new manager whether from among existing living beings or by birthing another.
But that didn't matter; what mattered was that Lin Moyu knew the rules would shift dramatically at that time, bringing a rare opportunity.
Only during such times of great change in heaven and earth could many things become possible.
Palm after palm struck Lin Moyu showed no mercy, slaughtering the wild beasts to the last.
Streaks of light arrived from afar it was the Dao Lords and Eternals, attracted by the upheaval. But they stopped a distance away, unable to approach Lin Moyu's earth shaking, transcendent power watching from afar, all in shock. The Eternals, especially, knew exactly the level Lin Moyu had now reached.
To speak bluntly, just one person could kill all of them.
After a while, Lin Moyu finally stopped he had to, or the rules of the domain would expel him.
Half step transcendence was already past the limit of what the world could accommodate, though with Candle Dragon's help he could linger a bit longer.
But even then, there were limits now, after venting, Lin Moyu had reached that limit.
The once flat earth was now a basin, a giant pit tens of thousands of meters deep.
All the Dao wild beasts were utterly annihilated even the mutated ones had died a short while before.
Looking at the thousand or so Dao Lords and all the Eternals who had just arrived, Lin Moyu grinned. The Wings of Time and Curse unfurled with a loud swoosh, stirring time and creating spatial chaos Lin Moyu's speed soared, and he shot toward the Great Wilderness almost like teleporting.
...
Old Yin Head called out, "Quick, follow him!"
The Human Emperor didn't wait to be told he followed, muttering, "Daoist Lin is cleansing everything."
Old Yin Head said, "After this, the problem of the Dao wild beasts might be resolved, and the world's rules will likely change."
The Lord of Power said, "As long as the Dao remains, the wild beasts will never be truly extinct."
An Yuyan said, "Daoist Lin surely understands this. But at least, we won't have trouble from the Dao wild beasts for a long time."
The oldest and longest lived Fate Lord said nothing, unconcerned about the wild beasts. However, an unusual aura radiated from him, distinguishable from the other Eternals.
Only Lin Moyu and Candle Dragon could see it the Fate Lord was already on the path to transcendence, having taken his first steps. As long as he continued, he too would transcend.
And once transcended, the affairs of the world would no longer be his concern.
