Chapter 2025

"So, stop daydreaming. Just cultivate honestly, raise your Boundary Sea World to the seventh rank, and then harvest the origin. That's all there is to it."

"As for the living beings in the Boundary Sea World, if you can't bear to kill them, you can pack them up and take them with you, letting them live in your Rule World."

"Or you can find a place in the Origin Continent to settle them down. After a thousand years or so, they will be able to adapt."

Lin Moyu turned a deaf ear to Heavenly Venerable Shuizhi's words, his mind entirely focused on the possibility of taking the Boundary Sea World with him.

"My Rule World is constructed using the Great World as a template, and its similarity to the Great World is extremely high. This shouldn't be an issue."

"The current instinctual will of the Great World is very close to me, so that shouldn't be a problem either. After all, I'm not trying to destroy it, just move it elsewhere. This is much better than harvesting its origin."

"However, when it comes to the strength of my Rule World, it is still not strong enough. I probably can't pull the Great World inside yet. It seems my next step must be to strengthen my Rule World and raise my cultivation realm."

Seeing Lin Moyu remain silent, Heavenly Venerable Shuizhi couldn't help but ask, "Hey, kid, what are you thinking about?"

A resolute gleam gradually appeared in Lin Moyu's eyes. Heavenly Venerable Shuizhi's heart skipped a beat, and he got a bad feeling. "Hey, kid, don't make any reckless decisions. Don't ruin your bright future just like that."

Lin Moyu shook his head gently. "A senior once told me that some paths are destined to be difficult, but they are the strongest paths."

"If you want to become a truly powerful expert, you must walk this difficult path."

"I don't want to walk the same path as others. I want to become the strongest, and this is my Dao Heart!"

Heavenly Venerable Shuizhi felt Lin Moyu's Dao Heart, leaving him temporarily speechless and unable to refute.

"The strongest path… that does sound somewhat reasonable. Which fellow said that?"

Lin Moyu smiled. "A senior I met at the beginning of my cultivation journey, who is also a good friend of mine."

Heavenly Venerable Shuizhi asked with a hint of skepticism, "At the beginning of your cultivation? How strong was he?"

"Probably a Dao Venerable."

Heavenly Venerable Shuizhi was startled. "You knew a Dao Venerable at the beginning of your cultivation? There is a Dao Venerable in your world? That's impossible!"

Lin Moyu said, "A few years ago, a very Small World broke away from the Boundary Sea World. I wonder if you saw it."

Heavenly Venerable Shuizhi tilted his head, clearly having no recollection of it.

Lin Moyu reminded him again, "When the Dou Realm came over back then, my friend made a move once."

Heavenly Venerable Shuizhi still had no memory of it.

This also showed that Antares's method of intervention was highly advanced, completely bypassing Heavenly Venerable Shuizhi's perception.

Heavenly Venerable Shuizhi looked at Lin Moyu with a skeptical gaze, as if asking, "Is what you're saying true or false, kid?" Lin Moyu thought for a moment and said, "Come with me!"

He flew in the opposite direction of the Great World. By now, a long time had passed since his Small World departed, and the Great World had sailed quite a distance away.

As Lin Moyu's strength increased, his connection with the Great World also strengthened, allowing him to maintain a distance of up to four hundred thousand meters.

Lin Moyu flew all the way to the four hundred thousand-meter limit. Under Heavenly Venerable Shuizhi's puzzled gaze, he pointed a finger into the distance. The Law of Time surged, and a long river faintly emerged—the power of Time Reversal!

Chapter 2427: Your Destiny Is Bound to Be Extraordinary

"Time Reversal? How can you use Time Reversal?"

Heavenly Venerable Shuizhi's eyes widened once more. He felt that the shocks he received from Lin Moyu were more than all the surprises he had experienced in his entire life combined.

Lin Moyu said, "I know the Law of Time, so isn't it normal for me to use Time Reversal?"

While the Law of Time could indeed be used in the Boundary Sea, it would be affected, and the time reversed could not go as far back as it could within the Great World.

But going back eight or ten years was not a major issue.

Heavenly Venerable Shuizhi shook his head. "No, what I mean is, does your Boundary Sea World also have the Law of Time?"

Lin Moyu nodded. "Yes."

Heavenly Venerable Shuizhi said, "If it even has the Law of Time, then it must have the Law of Space too?"

Upon receiving Lin Moyu's affirmative answer, Heavenly Venerable Shuizhi's gaze grew even more astonished. "Good grief, this Boundary Sea World of yours has an incredibly strong foundation!"

All Boundary Sea Worlds evolved from a Primordial World. To some extent, the strength of the Primordial World determined the foundation of the Boundary Sea World.

Although a Boundary Sea World could devour the origins of other worlds to continuously strengthen and perfect itself during its growth process,

sometimes, the foundation was very difficult to alter.

The worlds previously devoured by the Great World, such as the Demon Tiger World, the Qingling Realm, and the Dou Realm, did not possess the Laws of Time and Space.

Heavenly Venerable Shuizhi said, "The Laws of Time and Space are two Great Dao Laws. Not every Boundary Sea World has them. Even if they do, they usually only have one of them, or the laws are incomplete."

"Your Boundary Sea World is indeed very strong, very impressive!"

Lin Moyu smiled. "I also think the Great World is very impressive!"

As Time Reversal was activated, the River of Time cast down a vast projection of light and shadow, revealing events of the past. Within the area enveloped by the projection, a tiny world suddenly appeared.

Heavenly Venerable Shuizhi's eyes widened. "There really is one! Why didn't I see it?" That world was extremely small, less than one-ten-thousandth the size of the Great World—a mere speck. Yet, Heavenly Venerable Shuizhi governed this sea area and could sense everything within it. He shouldn't have missed the appearance of any world, no matter how small.

But this time, he had somehow missed it.

Suddenly, Heavenly Venerable Shuizhi's face changed drastically. "Watch out!"

His entire body instantly curled up, protecting himself with his thick turtle shell while also shielding Lin Moyu.

A surge of the Power of Time and Space rushed toward them, slamming heavily into Heavenly Venerable Shuizhi.

A violent tearing of time and space occurred. Heavenly Venerable Shuizhi's incredibly hard turtle shell instantly developed massive cracks.

Under the bombardment of the Power of Time and Space, the turtle shell was divided into countless sections, with each section seemingly entering a different moment in time and space, subjected to the slicing force of the Power of Time and Space.

Everything happened too quickly. By the time Lin Moyu reacted, Heavenly Venerable Shuizhi had already borne a wave of attacks. The Time Reversal instantly stopped, and the projection vanished.

Heavenly Venerable Shuizhi panted heavily, his eyes filled with terror. "That was close. This old turtle almost lost his life here."

Lin Moyu had also not expected things to develop in this manner.

Just as he was about to say something, Heavenly Venerable Shuizhi cried out, "Don't speak, let's leave first!" He was truly frightened and immediately left the area with Lin Moyu.

Even after returning to the edge of the Great World, Heavenly Venerable Shuizhi still had lingering fears. "What on earth is that world you mentioned? How could such a terrifying existence be there?"

Lin Moyu apologized slightly, "I don't know either. When I was in the Great World before, I was indeed attacked by the Power of Time and Space, but this time was just a Time Reversal."

"And I still don't understand what happened. Can you tell me about it?"

Heavenly Venerable Shuizhi said, "This old turtle was scared to death just now. You have to compensate me."

"Understood!" Without a second word, Lin Moyu waved his hand and tossed over two jars of aged fine wine.

Heavenly Venerable Shuizhi opened his mouth and drank over a thousand catties of wine to calm his nerves. "According to what you said, that Small World was forcibly stripped out of the Boundary Sea World by someone."

"Do you know what kind of existence someone who possesses such ability is?"

"And he could actually launch an attack directly from the Time Reversal through a time imprint. Such an existence is too terrifying!"

Lin Moyu's first reaction was not to think of Antares, but of that elderly man in the Green Robe.

Perhaps only he possessed such ability.

Lin Moyu was extremely curious about the realm of the elder in the Green Robe. He could terrify Antares so much that he dared not speak his name, and he could also launch an attack directly through a time imprint, nearly killing Heavenly Venerable Shuizhi.

Lin Moyu said, "I think I've met him."

"Shut up!" Heavenly Venerable Shuizhi shouted loudly. "Don't say it, don't say anything! I don't want to know anything about him."

"Do not tell me his name or his appearance."

"And don't even think about him. For an existence like that, just thinking about him might allow him to sense you."

"If you mention his name, he might appear before you in a split second and slap you to death!" Lin Moyu couldn't help but laugh. "It shouldn't be that terrifying. I've even chatted with him, and he even treated me to a cup of tea."

Heavenly Venerable Shuizhi gasped, "Are you sure you're not joking? An existence of that level chatted with you and even treated you to tea?"

Lin Moyu nodded slightly. "Yes."

Heavenly Venerable Shuizhi was completely speechless. "Your luck is simply too good to have met such a figure. It seems your destiny is bound to be extraordinary."

"Kid, such existences do not meet people casually, let alone treat them to tea."

"They stand high above, looking down upon all living beings under heaven."

"The power struggles of those people look as ridiculous as a game in their eyes."

"Just like the struggle of worlds in the Boundary Sea, the seventh-rank world-class origin that Heavenly Venerables would fight to the death for is absolutely nothing in the eyes of such an existence."

Lin Moyu asked, "Then what are they pursuing?"

Heavenly Venerable Shuizhi said, "How would I know? I'm not them. Only when you reach that realm will you understand."

"But since he was willing to chat with you and even treated you to tea, he probably thinks you have a chance…"

Lin Moyu's heart stirred. "Are you saying I have a chance to become an existence like him?"

Heavenly Venerable Shuizhi chuckled. "You're overthinking it. What I meant was, perhaps you have a chance to become his disciple."

"Don't doubt this old turtle's words. You'll know once you reach the Origin Continent."

Lin Moyu nodded. "Alright. But going to the Origin Continent is still a long way off. Since we aren't encountering other Boundary Sea Worlds right now, it will take a very long time for the Great World to rise to the seventh rank."

"Moreover, my cultivation is still far from enough. Without a High-level Heavenly Venerable, it won't be enough to promote the Great World."

Heavenly Venerable Shuizhi said, "Regarding this, I actually wanted to tell you. In the Boundary Sea, the struggle of worlds is not the only way to raise the rank of a Great World; there are other methods."

Lin Moyu immediately perked up his ears, listening intently.

Heavenly Venerable Shuizhi said, "After some time, the King will issue the boundary sea token. Each Boundary Sea World in the region can send a representative to execute the tasks assigned by the King."

"As long as you can complete the tasks and achieve good results, the King will bestow rewards."

"The rewards are usually those ruined worlds that failed in the struggle of worlds. These worlds can be directly refined and absorbed to strengthen your own Boundary Sea World."

"In this sea area of mine, there are only two or three who are qualified to participate, and you are one of them."

"I don't need to go into details; you will find out when the time comes."

Chapter 2428: Get Lost, If You Don't Want to Say It, Then Don't

Heavenly Venerable Shuizhi did not explain in detail what the boundary sea token was, because even he did not know the specific details. Everyone who participated in the boundary sea token would follow the orders of the Boundary Sea King to execute special tasks. Everyone who participated in the boundary sea token would keep it a secret.

According to Heavenly Venerable Shuizhi, the boundary sea token had been issued many times, and countless people had participated.

Each time, the participants were recommended by sea area governors like him, usually around three to five people per sea area.

If the people they recommended achieved good results, they would also receive rewards along with them.

Lin Moyu felt that the King issuing the boundary sea token must have a deeper meaning.

What exactly that deeper meaning was remained unknown.

However, those who went basically returned alive, at most suffering some injuries, so there was no need to worry too much.

Heavenly Venerable Shuizhi was very practical; if it were extremely dangerous, he wouldn't let him go.

Having known each other for several years, Heavenly Venerable Shuizhi had unconsciously come to regard Lin Moyu as a friend.

Lin Moyu once again threw himself into the life of hunting Strange Fish. Now that his strength had greatly increased, his speed in acquiring origin materials far exceeded the past.

At his current speed, it would take an average of 200 days in the Boundary Sea World to obtain the materials needed for one seventh-rank origin.

Lin Moyu wanted to fuse all of his spells into the seventh-rank origin. He calculated that there were eleven spells in total, which included three spells that had already been fused into the fifth-rank origin.

Even if every fusion with the seventh-rank origin was successful, it would still require 2,200 Boundary Sea days.

For the Great World, that would be a full sixty thousand years.

This was a long span of time. Sixty thousand years later, Heavenly Venerables should have already been born in the Great World, possibly more than one.

However, Lin Moyu did not care. As long as his own interests were not harmed, he wouldn't interfere with them.

He had his own things to do. His goal was far beyond becoming a Heavenly Venerable; he had to firmly lay a solid foundation.

…

Princess Yu Qingrou and Yuzhu gradually adapted to the rules of the Boundary Sea, and they had already begun preparing to step into the Beyond within the Boundary Sea.

Lin Moyu had prepared origin crystals for them. Fusing the Power of Origin when stepping into the Beyond would make their foundation more solid, while also smoothing the path for constructing their Rule Worlds in the future.

Based on his own experience and the advice of Heavenly Venerable Shuizhi, that old turtle, Lin Moyu planned to have the two of them detach themselves directly from the Great World.

From then on, they would become living beings of the Origin Continent, severing all ties with the Great World.

This would be beneficial for their future development.

In any case, with him around, the origin they needed for their future cultivation wouldn't be an issue at all, so they wouldn't need to rely on the origin of the Great World.

As the days passed one by one, Lin Moyu's life ahead was simple yet fulfilling.
