“Actually, you have already been at the gambling table.”

As he spoke, he reached out and beckoned. Lin Moyu frowned; he felt something depart from the Five-World Domain.

Upon arriving here, the Five-World Domain was not affected, but it was indeed missing something.

A rumbling sound came from outside the hall. Lin Moyu sensed that the entire Tianxu Land was shaking. His consciousness swept across it.

He discovered that Tianxu Land was collapsing. Ten thousand beasts howled in unison; countless powerful divine beasts living within Tianxu Land…

…were fleeing frantically, attempting to escape, but they had nowhere to go.

As the collapse continued, they would all eventually be destroyed. The outermost Wushi Tianxu Palace…

…was the first to be destroyed. It turned from ruins into dust, disappearing into the long river of history.

Master Tianxu said in a low voice:

"Whether it is Tianxu Palace or the divine beasts here…"

"…including Tianxu Land, everything they possess was bestowed by the Master. Now…"

"…the Master wants to take everything back, so they naturally must return to nothingness." Lin Moyu asked:

"What about you?"

Master Tianxu chuckled and said, "The task the Master entrusted to me has already been completed."

"I shall naturally return to silence within the Chaos, waiting to awaken once the matter is accomplished." Lin Moyu said:

"What if I fail?"

Master Tianxu smiled even more brightly. "If you fail, then so be it. We will just do it again."

"The Master once said that failure is normal. Things can fail."

"But the Master's layout cannot fail, and our Dao Heart cannot fail. Therefore, if there is a failure…"

Chapter 4295: Dealing with Karma

"…the one who fails can only be you, not the Master." Lin Moyu was left speechless.

Master Tianxu's loyalty to Great Venerable Tianzai had reached a point of extreme blindness. One by one, the Tianxu Palaces collapsed along with Tianxu Land.

All the divine beasts within Tianxu Land turned into nothingness. Their power came from Tianxu Land, and at this moment, it was returned to Tianxu Land.

Whatever was obtained must be returned to its source; such is karma. In the end…

…even the First Generation Tianxu Palace crumbled, leaving only the statue of Master Tianxu and Lin Moyu. All the power from the collapsed Tianxu Land gathered in Master Tianxu's hands.

It condensed into a realm gem. Lin Moyu had seen a realm gem before in the information provided by Master Tianxu.

However, this was the first time he had seen one with his own eyes. The realm gem looked quite peculiar; it was the size of a fist and contained unimaginable power within.

Master Tianxu said:

"This is what the Master left for you. However, with your current strength…"

"…you are not yet capable of evolving it. Wait until you reach Chaos Realm Perfection before evolving it. Utilizing the power of the Domain…"

"…will yield better results. I should go now. I wish you success!"

After Master Tianxu finished speaking, the void behind the statue shattered. Lin Moyu saw that behind the shattered void…

…a vast Domain vaguely appeared. Master Tianxu entered the void and disappeared.

"This is Master Tianxu's Domain!"

Wisps of the Domain's aura seeped through the shattered void. Although it was only a wisp…

…Lin Moyu could still feel its power. Master Tianxu was a powerhouse at the Chaos Realm Perfection, and his Domain was incomparably powerful.

Compared to it, the Five-World Domain and the Great Thousand World were simply not worth mentioning. The void recovered.

However, the feeling from just now was firmly imprinted in Lin Moyu's heart. He clearly felt the gap between them; this gap had reached an unimaginable level.

It was no wonder Master Tianxu had the confidence to compete for the position of Great Venerable. There were nine positions of Great Venerable in the Chaos.

Even though Great Venerable Tianzai had fallen for countless years, no one dared to compete for his vacated position of Great Venerable. It was not that they did not want to compete…

…but that they dared not compete, and they could not. The two Great Venerables, Green Robe and White Robe, were guarding it.

Whoever went to compete would simply die. Thus, this position of Great Venerable remained vacant.

It was waiting for the completion of Great Venerable Tianzai's layout, for someone to inherit his will and ascend to the position of Great Venerable. If the matter they were plotting succeeded…

…then the position of Great Venerable would become vacant again, and only then would it be someone else's turn. Master Tianxu was waiting for that moment.

…to be completed. Lin Moyu believed that this was all the arrangement of Great Venerable Tianzai. Master Tianxu had blind trust in Great Venerable Tianzai.

He would rather spend countless years to see it through. To a Heaven and Earth Great Venerable, time really had no meaning!

Lin Moyu sighed softly and held the realm gem in his hand. At the same time, a piece of information was transmitted into his soul.

The information told Lin Moyu about the origin of the realm gem. The realm gem was conceived by the Chaos and could not be refined artificially.

The quantity of realm gems was extremely scarce, and countless Chaos Realm powerhouses were searching for them. In particular, the quality of realm gems varied greatly.

Some realms evolved from realm gems were extremely powerful, while others were extremely weak, not even as good as directly searching for existing Domains.

A Great Venerable once asserted that some of the Domains in the Chaos were evolved from realm gems.

The difference was that some were evolved artificially through realm gems, while others were conceived actively by the Chaos through realm gems.

Back then, Great Venerable Tianzai traveled throughout the Chaos and finally found an extremely excellent realm gem, but he did not evolve it.

Instead, he used the realm gem within the scepter of calamity to transform it. Great Venerable Tianzai smashed and refined several Domains…

…integrating the power of those Domains into the realm gem until the realm gem was completely satiated. This kind of thing…

…could only be done by relying on the realm gem. Others would not even dare to think about it. It was precisely because of this…

…that this realm gem became the best of the best, and Master Tianxu was able to use this realm gem to create Tianxu Land.

Moreover, he evolved the Domain generation after generation. Now that the realm gem had come into Lin Moyu's hands, he could use the realm gem…

…to re-evolve this Domain. Each Domain could exist independently and ultimately belong to himself.

From this information, Lin Moyu saw another point: in order to nurture the realm gem, Great Venerable Tianzai personally destroyed several Domains.

How many living beings were there in each Domain? That could no longer be described as a catastrophe; the karma involved was ridiculously large.

But Great Venerable Tianzai did not care. He ignored such trivial karma; this was what a Great Venerable was.

He viewed the living beings of the Domain as ants; he cared even less about the karma of ants.

To achieve their goals, Great Venerables could really be unscrupulous. If it were said that slaughtering all the Chaos Creatures could allow them to go further…

…they would do it without hesitation. Putting away the realm gem, the Tianxu Land had already collapsed.

Lin Moyu did not want to stay here either. Just as he was about to leave, he suddenly saw a glimmer of light.

The glimmer of light wrapped around a Remnant Soul, which was flying in the void, and it was flying towards him.

"Eh!"

Lin Moyu felt a familiar aura. This Remnant Soul…

…was actually Emperor Kunlun. Emperor Kunlun had not fallen; he had a Remnant Soul that escaped from the Tian Xu Pagoda.

However, he could not escape from Tianxu Land and was wandering around within it. Now that Tianxu Land had collapsed…

…it was finally revealed. And it was instinctively flying in the direction of the due boat. Emperor Kunlun had obtained the due boat for many years…

…and had more or less established some connection with it. Lin Moyu smiled and said:

"Since that is the case, it can be considered fate."

"I will help you out." With a wave of his hand, he took away Emperor Kunlun's Remnant Soul.

The Remnant Soul had lost its consciousness and only had instincts left. Lin Moyu steered the due boat and left.

Returning to the bottom of the Yellow Springs, the Giant Whale was still lying there, not daring to move.

Lin Moyu raised his hand and tapped gently, and the entrance to Tianxu Land disappeared. "From now on, you are responsible for guarding the Yellow Springs."

The Giant Whale replied repeatedly:

"As you command!"

Lin Moyu came to the reincarnation land of the Beast Abyss.

After merging with the Reincarnation Hell, some changes had occurred in the reincarnation land of the Beast Abyss. Long rivers of fire had appeared here.

All living beings needed to pass through the baptism of the rivers of fire before they could enter reincarnation. He waved his hand and threw Emperor Kunlun's Remnant Soul into the river of fire.

He said in a low voice:

"The karma on you is too heavy. Let this Domain decide how you should be reincarnated."

Lin Moyu had the ability to intervene, but he did not want to interfere. He left it to the Domain rules to evolve on their own.

In other words, it was leaving it to fate. Of course, he had the ability to save Emperor Kunlun, but he did not want to.

After finishing this, Lin Moyu moved his consciousness and appeared before Emperor Hongshi.

He told Emperor Hongshi about the matter regarding Emperor Kunlun. While shocked, Emperor Hongshi did not oppose Lin Moyu's actions.

He knew Lin Moyu's identity very well, so how could he make things difficult for himself? In the end…

…Lin Moyu arrived at the small island where the Di Ting Beast was located. Upon seeing Lin Moyu, the Di Ting Beast respectfully called out:

"Greetings, Domain Master." Lin Moyu smiled and said:

"You are too polite."

"There is no need for such formalities between us. Let us address each other as fellow Daoists. I have come this time…"

"…because I wanted to discuss the matter of the Lingmiao Domain with Fellow Daoist Di Ting." The Di Ting Beast nodded:

"Please speak, I am listening." Lin Moyu said:

"Although I have entered the Chaos now, I temporarily do not have the ability to completely sever the connection between the Lingmiao Domain and you. However, I can change the rules as much as possible."

"If you wish to enter the Chaos, you can go first…"

Chapter 4296: Fishing Someone Out of Reincarnation

The Di Ting Beast had helped him quite a bit.

Although he had also paid a price, Lin Moyu remembered the kindness of a drop of water.

Therefore, when the Di Ting Beast asked him for help, Lin Moyu took the initiative to visit. The Di Ting Beast was once the rule manager of the Lingmiao Domain.

Because the Lingmiao Domain was crippled, and later, along with the realm gem, it came to the Five-World Domain together with the Lingmiao Domain.

However, there was a hand manipulating everything behind the scenes. The Di Ting Beast had stayed in the Five-World Domain for a long time.

It seemed like it had done nothing, but in fact, it had done quite a few things for the Five-World Domain. Lin Moyu could see that.

The Di Ting Beast already had deep karma with the Five-World Domain. At the same time, although it had left the Lingmiao Domain and was no longer the rule manager of the Lingmiao Domain…

…the connection with the Lingmiao Domain had not become shallower, but on the contrary, it had become deeper. The reason for this was very complex.

Lin Moyu felt that it should have something to do with the realm gem and the White Robe elder. Lin Moyu roughly judged that only when he reached Chaos Realm Perfection…

…could he truly sever the connection and allow the Di Ting Beast to gain freedom. Before that, it was not that nothing could be done.

Lin Moyu had tried and could change the rules so that the Lingmiao Domain would no longer drag down the Di Ting Beast. In this way, it could be considered as gaining freedom in disguise.

The Di Ting Beast could enter the Chaos, complete the Chaos transformation, and cultivate within the Chaos.

The Di Ting Beast listened quietly, and a look of joy appeared in its eyes. It said in a low voice:

"The task the Master gave me back then was to guard this Domain until it had a master."

"I thought that waiting for the Domain to have a master would take countless years, or perhaps I would never wait for it."

"But I had to carry out the Master's order. Without the Master, I could not have achieved transcendence."

"I did not expect that the Domain would have a master so soon. Thank you, Fellow Daoist Lin!"

The Di Ting Beast transformed into an old man and bowed to Lin Moyu. Lin Moyu said:

"You are too polite. When do you decide to leave? I will see you off!"
