Chapter 2155
Lin Moyu smiled. "That bow?"
Dao Venerable Jiang Ruoxue snorted softly. "It's good that you know. With the Luoxing Arrow, it's possible to find the Luoxing Bow."
"The Luoxing Bow is related to the inheritance of Star Lord Luoxing!"
Dao Venerable Jiang Ruoxue thought Lin Moyu already knew, so she blurted it out without filter.
Only now did Lin Moyu realize that the broken arrow actually had such an important purpose.
Unfortunately, his half of the broken arrow had already turned into the Star Arrow Lich.
Fortunately, he had no interest in the inheritance of Star Lord Luoxing; otherwise, he would probably feel a bit annoyed.
He slowly took a sip of tea, showing no signs of urgency. "Senior Jiang should also be aware that it's impossible to find the Luoxing Bow with just half of a broken arrow, let alone the inheritance of Star Lord Luoxing."
"Furthermore, Senior Jiang should also know by now that the other half of the broken arrow is in my hands, and you won't be able to get it."
"So, your half of the broken arrow is actually useless now. You might as well sell it for a good price."
Dao Venerable Jiang Ruoxue huffed coldly, "Then why can't you sell yours to me?"
Lin Moyu shook his head. "I naturally have my reasons for not being able to sell it. Of course, Senior also has yours. Besides, I don't want to take it by force."
"Though Senior Jiang should know that if I really wanted to take it by force, it wouldn't be very difficult."
Dao Venerable Jiang Ruoxue fell into deep thought upon hearing Lin Moyu's words.
Lin Moyu was not lying to her. If he really decided to take it by force, it indeed wouldn't be hard.
However, that was a last resort. Lin Moyu didn't want to get tangled in karmic relations with the Jiang Family. After all, when Dao Venerable Jiang Ruoxue arrived earlier, she harbored no killing intent; from beginning to end, she had never thought of killing him.
Some matters had to be thoroughly considered.
Seeing that Dao Venerable Jiang Ruoxue did not immediately refuse, Lin Moyu added fuel to the fire, "Name your price, Senior. As long as I can afford it."
Dao Venerable Jiang Ruoxue stared at Lin Moyu. "It's not impossible to sell it to you, but I have a condition."
Lin Moyu said, "Please speak, Senior."
Dao Venerable Jiang Ruoxue said, "If you obtain the Luoxing Bow and the inheritance of Star Lord Luoxing in the future, I hope you can copy the inheritance and give a copy to my Jiang Family."
"Also, regarding the Luoxing Bow, if you no longer need it in the future, you must prioritize selling it to my Jiang Family."
Lin Moyu found it strange. "For every Star Lord, there is only one successor per generation. What use is there in copying it for them?"
Dao Venerable Jiang Ruoxue noticed Lin Moyu's confusion and explained, "You are currently the Son of Taiyin, carrying immense destiny, so your chances of obtaining the inheritance of Star Lord Luoxing are very high."
"However, because you are the Son of Taiyin, you cannot inherit the star positions of any of the Star Lords."
"The inheritance of Star Lord Luoxing won't be of much use to you. Only the techniques within it and the Luoxing Bow might be somewhat useful."
"Your future holds limitless possibilities. As long as you don't die, the Luoxing Bow is destined to be just a temporary transition in your growth."
"So my condition is that you copy the inheritance for us, and when you no longer need the Luoxing Bow, prioritize selling it to us."
"If you agree, I will give you the broken arrow."
Dao Venerable Jiang Ruoxue stated her conditions.
Lin Moyu could tell she wasn't lying.
However, she had an ulterior motive. After going in a big circle, what she ultimately wanted was still the inheritance of Star Lord Luoxing.
With a copied version and the Luoxing Bow, there would indeed be a chance to inherit the position of Star Lord Luoxing and become the new generation's Star Lord.
Only by obtaining the star position can one be called a Star Lord.
Otherwise, even with the inheritance and the Luoxing Bow, one cannot be called a Star Lord.
As for how to obtain a star position, the requirements varied, and Lin Moyu didn't know either.
After pondering for a moment, Lin Moyu said, "Very well, I agree to your terms, but I will not make a soul oath."
Dao Venerable Jiang Ruoxue smiled beautifully. "I believe you. After all, you are the Son of Taiyin, carrying great destiny; you won't break your word."
As she spoke, she handed over the half of the broken arrow. Her entire movement was very decisive, just like how she had previously referred to herself as 'this lady' with every breath.
Although she wasn't extremely smart, she was a straightforward person who didn't beat around the bush.
After giving the broken arrow to Lin Moyu, Dao Venerable Jiang Ruoxue finished the cup of tea in front of her, clapped her hands, and stood up happily. "Alright, this lady's mission this time is considered a failure. Going home, I'll inevitably get lectured by those old fogeys. But this lady hopes you don't get caught by anyone, otherwise you, the Son of Taiyin, would really be too unlucky!"
"Also, as a reminder, the Wen Dao Sect is already preparing to activate the Misfortune Array to forcibly weaken your destiny."
"When the time comes, you might become very unlucky and face constant misfortune. Be mentally prepared!"
After saying that, Dao Venerable Jiang Ruoxue got up and left the Flying Cloud Sect, vanishing without a trace in the blink of an eye.
Lin Moyu picked up the broken arrow and saw the character 'Three' carved on its tail, along with an illustration of a flame.
The flame represented the attribute of the entire arrow, and the 'Three' represented that it was an arrow of the Dao Venerable 3rd Realm.
Lin Moyu summoned the Star Arrow Lich and handed the broken arrow to it.
The Star Arrow Lich immediately showed a look of joy, transforming into a ball of flame that tightly enveloped the broken arrow.
The broken arrow began to melt slowly, and at the same time, the aura of the Star Arrow Lich began to strengthen.
"It really is useful." Lin Moyu smiled slightly. Once it completely devoured the broken arrow, the Star Arrow Lich should be able to reach the Dao Venerable Realm.
With its combat power greatly increased, he would have another top-tier fighter.
Lin Moyu looked at Dao Venerable. "Is what Jiang Ruoxue said earlier true?"
Dao Venerable knew what Lin Moyu was asking. "It is true!"
Lin Moyu murmured, "The Misfortune Array sounds quite powerful. Tell me everything you know about it."
Chapter 2618: Let's See Who Will Be Unlucky
From Dao Venerable's mouth, Lin Moyu learned what the Misfortune Array was.
The Misfortune Array was a part of the Destiny Array. The Destiny Array was an eighth-rank formation, a top-tier formation on the Origin Continent.
Even a seventh-rank formation grandmaster like Dao Venerable Lu Fengqing could not set it up.
The Destiny Array could suppress and stabilize destiny, possessing a function somewhat similar to an origin spirit vein.
Powerful forces would all find ways to set up a Destiny Array.
Several destiny-related formations could be derived from the Destiny Array, and the Misfortune Array was one of them.
The Misfortune Array was a seventh-rank formation, which was also extremely powerful.
Through the Misfortune Array, one could weaken the target's destiny. Once their destiny was weakened, they would naturally face constant misfortune.
If one's foundation was not strong enough, they might very well die amidst the misfortune.
"The Wen Dao Sect is trying to drive me to my death!"
Lin Moyu muttered to himself. He knew why the Wen Dao Sect was doing this.
It was nothing more than feeling that since they couldn't successfully pull him into the Wen Dao Sect, if they couldn't have him, they would destroy him.
This place still belonged to the Wen Dao Sect's territory, but being a border region, the Wen Dao Sect's control here was not strong.
With so many Dao Venerables from various forces arriving, the Wen Dao Sect couldn't afford to offend all of them.
In that case, they might be better off killing him so that everyone would end up empty-handed, and no one would get any benefit.
Lin Moyu frowned. "It might not be entirely like that. Perhaps the Wen Dao Sect has other ideas.
"The Misfortune Array is a double-edged sword. While weakening me, it also requires paying a price, and that price is the Wen Dao Sect's own destiny."
"Although as a seven-star force, their destiny is incredibly strong, destiny is also extremely precious and will not be lightly used."
"The Wen Dao Sect shouldn't be doing something like hurting the enemy by a thousand while losing eight hundred themselves."
Lin Moyu changed his perspective, thinking about the problem from another level.
He put himself in the shoes of the Wen Dao Sect's higher-ups to think about the consequences of using the Misfortune Array.
Combining this with the functions of the Destiny Array, Lin Moyu suddenly realized that the Wen Dao Sect actually had two objectives.
Weakening his destiny was only one of them; the second objective was to locate him.
He had become the Son of Taiyin, carrying extremely strong destiny, and the Destiny Array could sense the strength of destiny within a certain range through the origin spirit vein.
This way, his position would be exposed. With his destiny temporarily weakened on top of that, it would be much easier for the Wen Dao Sect to deal with him.
"I thought too simply. It seems the Wen Dao Sect's ultimate goal is still to bring me back."
"With their power and methods, as long as they capture me, they won't have to worry about me not complying."
Lin Moyu completely understood now. As long as they could capture him, the benefits they would obtain would far outweigh the destiny they lost.
A seven-star force like the Wen Dao Sect had existed for countless years, and who knew how many old foxes were inside; there was no way they would do a losing business.
Lin Moyu looked up at the Moon Origin hanging high in the sky. "Then bring it on. Let's see who will be unlucky!"
Bone Hell finally devoured all the Chaos Corrosive Worms completely, and Lin Moyu continued to travel northward along the Chaos Zone.
As yin and yang alternated, Lin Moyu flew safely for a day under the illumination of the Sun Origin.
During this day, Bone Hell devoured another large number of Chaos Corrosive Worms, but he still failed to encounter any Chaos Corrosive Worms of the Dao Venerable Realm.
It had been several days since he entered the central area of the Chaos Zone, but only Dao Venerable Jiang Ruoxue had drawn over two Dao Venerable Realm Chaos Corrosive Worms, while he hadn't encountered a single one himself.
This made Lin Moyu feel strange, sensing that it was very abnormal.
As the Moon Origin appeared once again, Lin Moyu couldn't help but grow vigilant.
If the Wen Dao Sect wanted to use the Misfortune Array, it would likely be tonight.
Because he was the Son of Taiyin, they could only lock onto his position when Taiyin ruled the heavens.
The flying cloud boat continued to move forward, maintaining a constant speed.
Lin Moyu called Mist out and explained the situation to her.
Mist patted her chest and guaranteed that if anyone dared to touch Lin Moyu, she would make them suffer great misfortune.
The Moon Origin grew brighter and brighter, and the taiyin talisman at the center of Lin Moyu's forehead flashed continuously, highlighting his identity as the Son of Taiyin.
A large amount of Moon Origin gathered on Lin Moyu, forming a hazy light cocoon that made him look like a divine being.
At the Wen Dao Sect headquarters, ten towering mountains whose peaks could barely be seen stood tall upon the earth.
Beneath the mountains and the earth, a massive origin spirit vein coiled, and countless wisps of Mist rose from the origin spirit vein, enveloping the Wen Dao Sect.
At the peak of one of the mountains, a Dao Venerable stood on the summit, his voice like thunder, "Activate the array!"
Rumbles echoed as destiny began to churn, and a formation emerged in the sky.
This formation was incredibly complex, hidden within the clouds and Mist yet existing in every corner of heaven and earth.
An eighth-rank formation, the Destiny Array.
The Wen Dao Sect used it in cooperation with the origin spirit vein to suppress and stabilize the entire sect.
The Destiny Array rotated slowly; the entire array was not fully activated, only a portion of it.
An invisible force swept through the origin spirit vein, surging across the entire territory controlled by the Wen Dao Sect at an astonishing speed.
The clear pathways of the origin spirit vein appeared in the air, and points of light lit up one by one, revealing all existences with strong destiny within the origin spirit vein.
Some of those with strong destiny were families, some were spiritual beasts, and some were cultivators.
Among them, at the edge of the origin spirit vein, a certain point of light was exceptionally bright.
"Found him. He is in the Chaos Zone."
"Pass the location down. Have them act covertly and not alert anyone else."
A voice boomed, and Lin Moyu's location was immediately transmitted to the Wen Dao Sect's forces through a special method.
The Wen Dao Sect's forces in the border region moved upon hearing the news, silently making their way toward the Chaos Zone.
In order not to alert other Dao Venerables, their movement speed was not fast.
This was the Wen Dao Sect's home ground, and the number of forces sent by the Wen Dao Sect far exceeded those of other influences.
The Wen Dao Sect's forces didn't all need to move; only a portion needed to enter the Chaos Zone, while the rest could continue to act as a cover, pretending they couldn't find him. After all, in their eyes, the Son of Taiyin was merely a low-rank Heavenly Venerable.
To deal with a low-rank Heavenly Venerable, there was no need to make a big fuss; any random Dao Venerable would be more than enough, and they might not even need a Dao Venerable.
The Dao Venerables of various forces had long heard that the Wen Dao Sect would use the Misfortune Array, so they were all keeping a close eye on the Wen Dao Sect's forces, planning to reap the benefits from behind.
No matter how cautious the Wen Dao Sect was, they would still show some slip-ups.
