Chapter 4116: The Forbidden Zone of Heaven and Earth
Not only did Lin Moyu breathe a sigh of relief, but An Yuyan did as well, softly saying, "Yes, it's finally done."
Lin Moyu joked, "Have you ever thought about how hard it is to actually kill an Eternal?"
An Yuyan replied, "It's definitely not easy, but the Lord of Curses was especially difficult. I'm starting to think I should make more avatars just in case something happens, at least I'll have a way out."
Lin Moyu laughed, "Who would dare mess with you, Daoist Yuyan? If you go all out with the Cause and Effect Dao, you could drag anyone down with you."
An Yuyan shook her head, "You never know. What if they're as powerful as you?"
Lin Moyu was momentarily speechless, then took out a Heaven Shrouding Stone and an Undying Treasure Jade. "Please take these, Daoist Yuyan, just in case."
An Yuyan accepted without hesitation, "Alright, this way I'll be prepared for someone like you."
The two bantered as they returned to the formation Lin Moyu had set up. The War Emperor's phantom appeared, immediately bowing to Lin Moyu. "Greetings, Daoist Lin." This time, he was especially respectful Lin Moyu's display of power had left him in awe. Faced with someone so much stronger, the War Emperor could only submit.
Lin Moyu could guess what the War Emperor was thinking but didn't bother to dwell on it. He simply smiled, "Senior War Emperor, are you getting used to the new formation?"
The War Emperor replied, "It's a very powerful formation, but it will take some time to fully control it."
Lin Moyu said, "This formation connects directly to Burial Dao Valley. Once you've mastered it, you can go there and take a look it must get boring staying in one place all the time. The formation isn't fully complete yet. I'll leave the rest to the Formation Dao Lord; I'm sure he'll be eager to perfect it."
The War Emperor said, "The Formation Dao Lord is obsessed with formations. This will be an irresistible challenge for him I doubt he'll leave for the next hundred thousand years."
Lin Moyu chuckled, "That's good. Let him stay here."
A hundred thousand years? Lin Moyu thought it wouldn't even take that long for the Dao Wild Beasts to be completely wiped out. After that, there'd be no need to guard this place, and if the War Emperor wanted to move, Lin Moyu could help.
The War Emperor asked quietly, "Daoist Lin, is the Lord of Curses truly dormant now?"
Lin Moyu nodded, "Last time in Burial Dao Valley, he managed to escape, but today it's finally settled. You can rest easy no one will try to control you again."
The War Emperor let out a huge sigh of relief, "Thank you, Daoist Lin."
Lin Moyu shook his head, "It's what I should do."
After saying goodbye to the War Emperor, Lin Moyu returned to the Dao Lord Hall and handed over all formation data to the Formation Dao Lord. He didn't even bother naming the new formation he left that to someone else.
Saint Heart was still refining pills, seemingly unaffected by the earlier battle. Over the years, she had refined countless pills and reached a deep understanding of the Dao of Alchemy almost enough to become the Alchemy Dao Lord. Some of the pills were for healing, but others weren't. Saint Heart hadn't said, and Lin Moyu didn't ask it was her private matter. He'd told her before: if she needed anything, just ask, and he'd never refuse.
After leaving the Dao Lord Hall, Lin Moyu headed for the Ten Million Origin Mountains to check on the Soulless Beast's progress. With the Lord of Curses dealt with, it was time to deal with the Dao Wild Beasts. The Soulless Beast was the first step if things went as planned, it was only a matter of time before the Dao Wild Beasts were eliminated.
But with Tun Yuan appearing in the Great Wilderness and the nine Beast Emperors up to something, there were new variables.
Before reaching the Ten Million Origin Mountains, a wave of heaven and earth fortune descended. Lin Moyu bathed in the rich fortune, feeling very comfortable. Over the years, fortune had descended many times, and his accumulation was deep. If he wanted to knock on the Gate of Eternity, he now had enough fortune but he had his own ideas and didn't want to rely solely on fortune.
Entering the Ten Million Origin Mountains, he found it even quieter almost no Dao Wild Beasts remained. The recent beast tides had already shown their numbers were dwindling.
An Yuyan said, "Looks like the Soulless Beast is getting stronger and faster."
Lin Moyu replied, "When one rises, another falls. Once it finishes here, the real test will begin."
An Yuyan nodded, "Yes. With Tun Yuan in the Great Wilderness, who knows what will happen if those two meet."
Lin Moyu said, "Let's wait and see. The wild beasts hide a great secret if we can unravel it, it will benefit us greatly."
An Yuyan asked, "What secret?"
Lin Moyu smiled, "It's about the secret of how heaven and earth create life."
An Yuyan's eyes narrowed, "That's a forbidden zone."
Lin Moyu said, "The forbidden zone is defined by other cultivators it doesn't concern me. When I first started cultivating, I saw a Heavenly Venerable try to create life in his own world, and he succeeded to some extent. I just want to keep exploring this secret."
For beings like An Yuyan, Heavenly Venerables were like ants she could kill thousands with a breath. But in the great world of that era, Heavenly Venerables were the limit, and when they reached the end of the road, they sought new paths such as the secret of creating life. But their vision was too limited. The great world and the Origin Continent were just specks of dust in the grand scheme. True creation of life didn't come from the great world or the Origin Continent, but from this heaven and earth itself.
The great world was like a well, and the Heavenly Venerables were frogs in the well, thinking they'd touched the sky, but they hadn't. Eventually, they discovered the realm sea beyond the great world, and even greater worlds beyond that, and left. The path of creating life was abandoned.
Lin Moyu had studied those Heavenly Venerables. Their so called creation of life was just piecing together existing beings into chimeras. Lillian, still asleep in the crystal coffin, seemed to be improving but never truly awakened. Only by understanding the secret of creation or becoming the master of heaven and earth could Lin Moyu truly revive her. Otherwise, even finding the soul of a former Heavenly Venerable would be useless.
An Yuyan said quietly, "Creating life is one of the greatest secrets of heaven and earth. We tried to explore it, but got nowhere. We called it a forbidden zone because, in the process, our accumulated fortune was rapidly depleted what took ten thousand years to gain was lost in a month. We couldn't afford the price and realized heaven and earth didn't allow us to touch that area."
"But some refused to give up and kept deducing. They found that if anyone could comprehend the creation of life, they could forge a new world, become an existence on par with this heaven and earth, and surpass Eternity."
