Chapter 2293
Star Lord Luoxing's bitter smile deepened. "That Divine Pet was severely injured in the previous battle and has been recuperating ever since."
"When we discovered it, its injuries had not yet fully healed."
"Even so, the three of us paid an incredibly heavy price to trap it to death."
Lin Moyu was speechless. The price was indeed heavy: three Star Lords had fallen just to kill a wounded pet of an Outer Domain Celestial God.
Lin Moyu was very curious. "What exactly is the background of the Outer Domain Celestial God?"
Star Lord Luoxing shook his head. "We do not know their background, nor do we even know what they look like."
"However, their fighting style, techniques, and so on are seven or eight parts similar to ours."
"They have a very distinct aura on them. Once you see that aura, you will absolutely not mistake it."
"This Divine Pet of the Outer Domain Celestial God must have been injured in that great battle, then hid to recuperate, and was eventually discovered by us."
Star Lord Luoxing could not clearly explain the origin of the Outer Domain Celestial God, only stating that the opponent had a special aura that would be unmistakable upon sight.
Lin Moyu knew he wouldn't get any more information, so he turned to ask about the Star Wind Secret Realm.
The Star Wind Secret Realm was formed by the fusion of the three Star Lords' powers.
The outer perimeter of the Secret Realm was controlled by Star Lord Luoxing and Star Lord Erfeng, while Star Lord Hanjiu was responsible for the central area.
Among the three, Star Lord Hanjiu had the strongest combat power. With their combined efforts, they injured the Divine Pet again, and finally, Star Lord Hanjiu paid with his life to trap the opponent.
Lin Moyu asked, "Ten thousand years ago, the Secret Realm was discovered on the Origin Continent. Many people entered it back then; does the Star Lord know about this?"
Star Lord Luoxing seemed to be recalling the past. After a moment, he said, "Although that fellow was trapped to death by us, it was not resigned and kept resisting."
"That was when its resistance was most intense; the defense we three had set up was nearly broken, which caused the Secret Realm to be revealed to the world."
"Fortunately, we managed to block it in the end, but the Secret Realm could no longer remain hidden, and it certainly attracted quite a few people at the time."
"Because of that fellow, a gap was torn in the central area where Star Lord Hanjiu was responsible, and those people entered the central area of the Secret Realm directly through that gap."
"However, we must also thank them. Because of their arrival, that fellow's power was weakened significantly, which gave us an opportunity."
Lin Moyu asked curiously, "What opportunity?"
Star Lord Luoxing smiled slightly. "The opportunity to kill it."
Lin Moyu was suddenly shocked. He realized what opportunity Star Lord Luoxing was referring to.
Back then, the three of them combined their strength and could only trap the Divine Pet, unable to truly kill it.
Later, they came up with a method: collapse the entire Secret Realm and use the power generated during its collapse to kill the opponent.
This was the only method they could think of.
Lin Moyu said, "Before killing that fellow, can't you let them out?"
Star Lord Luoxing shook his head slightly. "It is not that we don't want to let them out, but we cannot. To truly trap that fellow, Star Lord Hanjiu severed the internal and external passages of the Secret Realm. They cannot come out, and we cannot go in."
Lin Moyu asked in a deep voice, "Can they really not come out?"
Star Lord Luoxing nodded. "They cannot come out. If they could come out, that fellow would surely find an opportunity."
"If we let that fellow escape, all our efforts over these many years would be in vain."
"I know you want to save people, but you cannot save those people."
Lin Moyu's eyes gleamed slightly. "In that case, those people are still alive?"
Star Lord Luoxing said, "Some should have died, but the rest are still alive. I can feel that the fellow's power is weakening."
Lin Moyu said, "Heaven never closes all doors. I believe there must be a way to save them. I ask for your guidance, Senior."
Star Lord Luoxing said, "There is only one method: kill that fellow. But it is unlikely that the fellow can be killed. We three have all tried, but without success."
"If you go in now, you will just be adding one more trapped person. It would be better to leave immediately. You still have a bright future ahead; it is not worth it."
Lin Moyu's gaze shifted, and he sighed softly. "Some things cannot be measured by whether they are worth it or not."
"I ask the Star Lord to tell me how to kill that fellow, or rather, how to severely injure it. This junior wants to go and try."
Lin Moyu knew that Star Lord Luoxing and the others had fought against the opponent for so long and had even severely injured it.
They must possess some information. If he was going to go, the more information he had, the better.
To go in, besides his promise to Lu Fengyao, Lin Moyu had a vague feeling.
If he could kill the Divine Pet of the Outer Domain Celestial God, it would be beneficial to him.
As for what benefit, he did not know.
It was just that the purple light of luck soaring into the sky and the dragon of luck echoing in his ears were telling him in the darkness that killing it would be beneficial to him.
Star Lord Luoxing asked, "Are you truly determined to go in?"
Lin Moyu nodded. "I am determined to go in. If I fail, I can only let down the Star Lord's good intentions."
Star Lord Luoxing waved his hand. "It does not matter. I had already given up hope; finding a successor was just a wishful thought. It does not matter if it is gone."
"Since you have made your decision, that is your Dao, and I will not stop you."
Chapter 2843: Hope You Can Succeed
Star Lord Luoxing actually did not know how to kill the Divine Pet. He told Lin Moyu about the process of the great battle with the Divine Pet back then.
The three Star Lords went all out and used their full strength to barely manage to injure the Divine Pet.
To be precise, it was not that they severely injured the Divine Pet, but rather they utilized the injuries that the Divine Pet had not yet recovered from.
Otherwise, they would have been unable to injure the Divine Pet at all.
"Soul attacks are ineffective, physical attacks are ineffective, and various techniques are ineffective."
"All attacks can only repel the Divine Pet but cannot truly injure it."
"However, it also consumed a huge amount of power while fighting us, causing its former injuries to recur."
"If there is any way to kill it, it would only be to drag it out until the Divine Pet's power is exhausted."
"However, we did not succeed. The Divine Pet's recovery ability is too strong; if we dragged it out, we would definitely be the ones exhausted to death first."
Lin Moyu asked about the current situation of the Divine Pet, but Star Lord Luoxing indicated he did not know.
Star Lord Hanjiu had severed the internal and external connections and had not been in contact with Star Lord Luoxing for thousands of years, so Star Lord Luoxing did not know the specific situation inside.
He could only sense a little bit that besides Star Lord Hanjiu and that fellow, there were others in the central area.
Those people were the ones who had entered before and were also trapped inside.
Star Lord Luoxing asked again, "Are you truly determined to go in?"
Lin Moyu took a deep breath. "Yes, I want to go in. Please show me the way, Star Lord."
Star Lord Luoxing sighed. "Since you are bent on having your own way…"
Star Lord Luoxing suddenly waved his large hand, and a large number of purple-black grasses on the prairie flew out, forming a sharp arrow in mid-air.
The sharp arrow whistled away and disappeared into the night sky.
A moment later, Lin Moyu felt a wind blowing from afar.
This wind was very strange, alternating between cold and hot.
Lin Moyu immediately realized that Star Lord Erfeng had arrived.
The "Erfeng" in Star Lord Erfeng referred to the Yin and Yang winds; the Yang wind focused on battle, and the Yin wind focused on killing.
Star Lord Erfeng's combat power was also top-tier. He attained the Dao through wind, and the Dao wind he blew was incomparably sharp.
Cold and hot, Yin and Yang, two completely different breezes gathered in the air, forming a human figure.
This figure twisted continuously in the air, as if it could be blown away by the wind at any moment.
Although it was only a Remnant Soul and he could not even see its features clearly, Lin Moyu recognized at a glance that it was Star Lord Erfeng.
After Star Lord Erfeng arrived, he asked in a low voice, "Luoxing, why did you call me here?"
Luoxing said, "Fellow Daoist Erfeng, I would like to ask you to join me in sending someone into the center of the Secret Realm."
Erfeng glanced at Lin Moyu. "A little guy in the Heavenly Venerable Realm; what is the use of sending him in? To be eaten by someone?"
Luoxing said, "Young Friend Lin is no ordinary person. In the Heavenly Venerable Realm, he has comprehended the Dao Enemy Locking method and has also learned how to sever the opponent's lock."
Star Lord Erfeng showed a look of surprise. "You actually comprehended the Dao Enemy Locking method before the Dao Venerable Realm."
Lin Moyu said, "This junior was just lucky."
Star Lord Erfeng finally began to examine Lin Moyu properly. His gaze blew over like wind, penetrating every crack.
"Not bad, not bad. A High-level Heavenly Venerable under three thousand years old; a peerless genius rarely seen in one hundred thousand years."
"To be able to comprehend the wonders of the Great Dao as a High-level Heavenly Venerable, your comprehension is also top-tier."
"But what of it?"
Erfeng changed his tone. "Brother Luoxing, do you think he can solve that fellow?"
Star Lord Luoxing shook his head. "I don't think so, but he is determined to go in, and I cannot stop him."
Erfeng looked at Lin Moyu, his tone slightly stern. "Do you know that going in is equivalent to courting death? With your aptitude, it is very likely that you will surpass the Dao Venerable Realm in the future and step into the Great Dao. Why are you in such a rush to go to your death?"
Lin Moyu knew that Star Lord Erfeng was concerned for him, so he bowed to Star Lord Erfeng. "Thank you for your kindness, Star Lord, but this junior has reasons why I must go."
"Furthermore, in my cultivation career, I have experienced many life-and-death dangers, and each time I have managed to escape death. I believe this time will be no exception."
Erfeng was unmoved. "Unless you give me a reason, I will not let you go."
Lin Moyu thought for a moment. "Just now, Senior Luoxing told me that the three seniors fought against that fellow for a long time but could never injure the Divine Pet."
"This junior has thought about it and perhaps found some reasons."
Star Lord Erfeng said, "Tell me about it?"
Lin Moyu spat out two words: "Void and Reality!"
Star Lord Erfeng and Star Lord Luoxing's eyes changed suddenly. Lin Moyu's words suddenly made them think of a possibility.
Star Lord Luoxing said, "Are you saying that the Power of Void can kill the Divine Pet?"
Lin Moyu said truthfully, "This junior is not sure either."
Star Lord Erfeng said, "Even if the Power of Void is truly needed, it is useless. We do not understand the Power of Void, nor do we have such magic treasures."
Lin Moyu smiled. "This junior might be able to go and try."
He spread his palm, and an invisible force gathered. Gradually, a purple short sword appeared in his hand.
The Sword of Luck gathered luck to condense into form, ultimately changing from void to reality.
What is visible is only its exterior; the interior is still solid Power of Void, incomparably pure Power of Void.
The two Star Lords' eyes widened, and they said in unison, "You actually have mastered the Great Dao of Luck."
Star Lord Luoxing immediately corrected, "No, what you used before was not the Great Dao of Luck."
Lin Moyu smiled. "This junior has mastered multiple Great Daos; one of them just happens to be the Great Dao of Luck."
The two Star Lords looked at each other. Even for them, it was rare to see someone who had attained the Heavenly Venerable Realm through the Great Dao of Void.
Normally, ordinary cultivators need to understand Void and Reality when in the Supreme Realm.
Understanding Void and Reality just means knowing that the world is divided into two sides: void and reality.
At this time, it is actually opening a gap for the cultivator. Those with ability can look through this gap to see the world of the Great Dao of Void.
However, the vast majority of people cannot see it.
When in the Heavenly Venerable Realm, comprehending the Dao and entering the realm, the vast majority of people also attain the Heavenly Venerable Realm through the Great Dao of Reality.
There is no way around it; the Great Dao of Void is not only invisible and intangible, but it is also impossible to sense, let alone comprehend.
Those who can attain the Heavenly Venerable Realm through the Great Dao of Void are truly one in a million.
At least the three Star Lords were not; they did not have this ability.
Star Lord Luoxing murmured, "I actually think we could let Young Friend Lin go and try. What if it works?"
Star Lord Erfeng was still insisting, "What if it doesn't work?"
Star Lord Luoxing said, "We have to try."
Star Lord Erfeng shook his head. "We cannot afford to lose. Such a genius should not be gambled with."
The two held different opinions and would not yield to each other.
Lin Moyu could see that Star Lord Erfeng was a bit stubborn; even though only a Remnant Soul remained, he was still like that.
