Chapter 2005

After some testing, Lin Moyu had gained a thorough understanding of the Brocade-Clad Lich.

If used correctly, the utility of the Brocade-Clad Lich would be astounding.

Lin Moyu rested in the manor for a few days, waiting for Princess Yu Qingrou to return before they would head to the Boundary Sea together.

At the same time, he requested some fine wine, infused it with the Power of Origin, to give to Heavenly Venerable Shuizhi next time.

In the Southern Continent of the Origin Continent, an angry roar erupted from within the Luozi Sect.

The Sect Master's gloomy voice echoed out, "Who let him go participate in the World Conflict?"

"Investigate for me, exactly who allowed him to go participate in the World Conflict."

"Bastards, daring to kill my son! I will slaughter your entire clan!"

The killing intent rose into the sky, shredding the white clouds, and then descended like millions of heavy fists, causing the earth to rumble incessantly.

At this moment, all the cultivators near the Luozi Sect felt this killing intent.

Chapter 2396: The True Purpose of the World Conflict

Dark clouds had shrouded the Boundary Sea for countless years; no one knew how long the clouds over the Boundary Sea had existed.

It seemed as if the Boundary Sea had been shrouded in dark clouds since the beginning of the world.

The creatures in the Boundary Sea were long accustomed to it; if one day the clouds were to disperse and the fog to clear, they might perhaps be the ones who felt uncomfortable.

Lin Moyu arrived at the Boundary Sea once again, placing Princess Yu Qingrou and Yuzhu on the Great World, and released fifty Kings to protect them.

The two could cultivate in peace and comprehend the laws.

Lin Moyu plunged into the Boundary Sea, continuing to hunt the Strange Fish.

The Great World had already been repaired, so he intended to use the Power of Origin he obtained from now on for himself.

There were still many spells that needed to be infused with the Power of Origin.

Lin Moyu already had a detailed cultivation plan in his mind; he wanted to infuse all of his spells with the Power of Origin and sublimate them into origin-level spells.

And it wouldn't just be ordinary origin; it had to be at least a Rank 7 origin.

He had calculated that to fuse one Rank 7 origin, he would need 729 Rank 1 origins, or 243 Rank 2 origins, or 81 Rank 3 origins.

It didn't seem like much; Lin Moyu felt that if he put in the effort, he could fuse one every 500 days.

Of course, the prerequisite was that the little fellow, Infinite Fusion, would cooperate and not cause any trouble.

The reason he chose Rank 7 origin was that it was the optimal result he had obtained after detailed calculations.

Rank 6 origin was equivalent to the Great World's origin. If he only needed Rank 6 origin, he just needed to become a Heavenly Venerable and ask the Great World for it.

He believed the Great World would certainly give it to him; in fact, once he became a Heavenly Venerable, he might even become the World Master and directly control the Great World's origin.

But he was not satisfied with Rank 6 origin. He was also thinking about sublimating the Great World and reaching the Dao Venerable Realm together with it.

To sublimate the Great World, ordinary Rank 6 origin was not enough; at least Rank 7 origin was required, and the quantity needed was more than one.

Lin Moyu felt that after the Great World sublimated, he must be worthy of the Great World.

This was one reason. Another reason was that although origin could be repeatedly absorbed to continuously enhance spell abilities,

if he used Rank 5 origin this time, and wanted to improve by fusing Rank 6 origin later, he would have to start the fusion process all over again. That was too troublesome; it was better to do it right the first time.

After calculating it all, Rank 7 origin was the most suitable.

If he were to upgrade to Rank 8, the workload would be astronomically high, and he didn't know how long it would take.

Lin Moyu leaped into the Boundary Sea, beginning his great hunting endeavor.

Batches of fish were hunted down; the army, the Revenant army, the Kings, the Buddha Kingdom Lich, and the Divine Power Lich cooperated with each other, attacking on multiple fronts with astonishing efficiency.

Lin Moyu acted as a hands-off manager, not needing to lift a finger himself.

He only needed to provide overall command to reap the rewards.

Divine Generals kept returning, bringing back the materials they obtained, and Lin Moyu's inventory was increasing at an astonishing speed.

Dozens of days later, Lin Moyu felt the water waves churning ahead, and the aura of a Heavenly Venerable surged over, mixed with a rich aroma of wine.

In the blink of an eye, the massive figure of Heavenly Venerable Shuizhi appeared before Lin Moyu.

Lin Moyu smiled and said, "Senior Shuizhi, why have you come over?"

Heavenly Venerable Shuizhi chuckled, "Guess!"

Seeing his appearance, Lin Moyu waved his hand, and two jars of ten-thousand-year-old fine wine were tossed over.

Did he even need to guess? It was just that his wine had run out, and he came to beg for more.

Heavenly Venerable Shuizhi was not polite at all; he directly took the two jars of wine and looked at Lin Moyu with approval, "Kid, you are sensible!"

Lin Moyu smiled, "Senior Shuizhi helped me so much last time; I couldn't thank you enough."

Heavenly Venerable Shuizhi laughed, "Your world has completely recovered, right? You are collecting origin crystal now; are you thinking of sublimating the world?"

Lin Moyu nodded, "That is one reason. I also want to use the origin crystal to cultivate and adapt to the Origin Continent as soon as possible."

Heavenly Venerable Shuizhi gave an understanding nod, "That's as it should be. Your approach is correct. Before truly entering the continent, make preparations so you don't get bullied by others."

"But with your ability, kid, I reckon there aren't many people who can bully you."

Lin Moyu had previously decisively killed two Heavenly Venerables from the Luozi Sect; Heavenly Venerable Shuizhi was very clear about Lin Moyu's combat power.

In any sect, a Heavenly Venerable was an elder-level figure; how could they be bullied?

Lin Moyu smiled, "It's still too early to go to the Origin Continent, and besides, I cannot leave the Great World for now."

Heavenly Venerable Shuizhi tilted his head, "I forgot about that. You are likely deeply connected with the Boundary Sea World right now; it won't be easy for you to leave."

Lin Moyu nodded slightly; it was indeed so.

Heavenly Venerable Shuizhi's large eyes rolled around constantly, seemingly trying to think of a solution for Lin Moyu, but after thinking for a long time, he couldn't come up with a good one.

He shook his large head in frustration, "It seems that you can only leave after ending the World Conflict."

Lin Moyu had long wanted to ask this question, but he never had the chance.

Every time he chatted with Heavenly Venerable Shuizhi, the conversation was led by Heavenly Venerable Shuizhi.

Lin Moyu was mainly responsible for listening and occasionally asking questions; this was the only way to keep the conversation going and obtain more information.

Now, Lin Moyu took the opportunity to ask, "Then how can the World Conflict be ended?"

Heavenly Venerable Shuizhi said, "There are quite a few ways to end the World Conflict, but before that, you first need to know what the World Conflict is and why it is conducted."

"Actually, when it comes down to it, the true purpose of the World Conflict is for the Power of Origin."

"You also know that high-rank origin is very difficult to obtain, especially world-class origin, which is even harder."

Heavenly Venerable Shuizhi began to speak incessantly, and Lin Moyu listened attentively, taking it all in.

From Heavenly Venerable Shuizhi, Lin Moyu finally understood what the World Conflict was, why it was conducted, and what its true purpose was.

High-rank origin was hard to obtain, and origin above Rank 6 was even more incredibly rare.

Once a Rank 7 origin appeared anywhere, it would absolutely trigger a great war; even those in the Dao Venerable Realm might personally enter the fray to fight for it.

It was precisely because high-rank origin was too scarce that the World Conflict existed.

Various Boundary Sea Worlds fought against each other, devouring one another.

They let the world grow until it reached a sufficient height, and then they could harvest the origin.

Lin Moyu couldn't help but ask, "Then what will happen to the world whose origin is harvested?"

Heavenly Venerable Shuizhi chuckled, "That depends on the mood of its owner. If it is a kind fellow, they will transfer the creatures in the Boundary Sea World to their own Rule World, or put them on the Origin Continent, letting them live in a different place."

"If it is that kind of ruthless and cold person, then they won't care. When the world shatters, the people inside will fall out of the world."

"Those with strong strength and good luck might survive, but those with weak strength will surely die."

"Most cultivators directly trigger the destruction of the world; the entire world collapses along with it, and not a single one can survive."

"There are even worse ones who refine all the creatures of the entire world, turning them into a magical treasure or a great medicine to enhance themselves."

Lin Moyu was shocked, "In that case, the Dao Venerable Realm will not appear in the Boundary Sea World."

Heavenly Venerable Shuizhi shook his head, "Generally not. In most cases, before a Dao Venerable Realm appears in a Boundary Sea World, the World Conflict has already ended."

"But there are exceptions. Perhaps the owner who started the World Conflict left for something, and by the time they returned, a Dao Venerable Realm had already appeared in the Boundary Sea World."

"As a result, they were killed by the Dao Venerable Realm in return, and the world changed hands. Such things have happened before."

"So, the World Conflict is very dangerous, not just the danger during the fight, but also the risk of being killed in return!"

Lin Moyu asked, "My world seems to have no owner."

Chapter 2397: Another World is About to Crash Over?

Lin Moyu's question was confirmed by Heavenly Venerable Shuizhi.

The Great World indeed had no owner.

Heavenly Venerable Shuizhi said, "Your world drifted into my sea area about a hundred years ago."

"At that time, I knew that the owner behind this world had died, and this world was riddled with holes, the experts inside were all dead, and the Heavenly Venerables were all gone."

"Otherwise, do you think that guy from the Purple Robe Sect would have the guts to start a World Conflict with you?"

"He didn't even look at the difference in scale between the two worlds."

Heavenly Venerable Shuizhi was right. If the Great World were intact and had several Heavenly Venerables, what would the Dou Realm count for?

Lin Moyu said, "So, the meeting of two worlds is not natural, but artificial?"

Heavenly Venerable Shuizhi might have talked until his mouth was dry; he opened a jar of wine, took a big gulp, and then continued, "Both exist. There are natural meetings, and there are intentional collisions."

"However, the one you had before was him intentionally crashing into you. It's just that, well, he was unlucky."

"He originally thought he could manipulate you and ascend in one step, but in the end, he threw his own life away."

"The World Conflict is so wonderful; it's truly interesting."

Another question arose in Lin Moyu's mind, "Then if two worlds collide and both worlds have owners, what happens to the one who loses?"

Heavenly Venerable Shuizhi said in an indifferent tone, "If you lose, you lose. At most, you get a little injured and withdraw from the World Conflict; what else can happen?"

"As long as you don't personally enter the fray, the other party generally won't attack you."

"However, some people just can't swallow their anger, personally enter the fray to break the rules, and the result is often that they die a death that couldn't be deader."

Lin Moyu looked at his Great World and muttered to himself, "How exactly did you die? If you were still alive, how would you deal with the creatures in the Great World?"

He could be certain that the former owner of the Great World did not die because of the World Conflict.

Otherwise, the Great World would have long been devoured by other worlds, and there would be no future events.

Lin Moyu finally understood now that the World Conflict was for the Power of Origin.

Generally speaking, Heavenly Venerables initiate the World Conflict and try their best to make their world grow to Rank 7.

The origin of a Rank 7 world can already support the Dao Venerable Realm, but these owners will take away the origin before a Dao Venerable Realm is born in the world.

Losing the origin, the world will inevitably collapse.

Whether the creatures in the world live or die depends on the owner's mood.

But Lin Moyu does not need to do this; he can fuse the Power of Origin, and obtaining Rank 7 origin is not difficult at all.

He is even thinking about fusing all his spells with Rank 7 origin.

It is a pity that this ordinary-level origin cannot make him reach the Dao Venerable Realm.

To want to reach the Dao Venerable Realm, he still needs world-class Rank 7 origin.

But it doesn't matter; Lin Moyu believes that heaven will not shut off all paths, and when the boat reaches the bridge, it will naturally straighten; there will always be a way.

The Dao Venerable Realm is still too far away; there is no need to trouble himself too much.

Now what he should do is figure out how to become the new World Master of the Great World. Now that the Great World has no owner, he has hope of becoming the new World Master of the Great World.

Once he becomes the new World Master of the Great World, everything in the Great World will be up to him.

Defying the heavens and changing fate is not a difficult task.
