Chapter 2313

Upon seeing that creature, a strong sense of disgust immediately arose within his soul.

This disgust was far more intense than when he saw the Divine Pet.

"Outer Domain Celestial God!"

Lin Moyu was shocked; he had actually seen an Outer Domain Celestial God with his own eyes right here!

Most importantly, this Outer Domain Celestial God was locked here by lightning and seemed to have lost consciousness.

However, it was not dead; it was still alive.

Through the Eye of the Undead, he could see that the Soul Fire of this Outer Domain Celestial God still existed.

Lin Moyu looked at this Outer Domain Celestial God. Although it was unconscious, the strength of its aura still made one's heart tremble. Just from the aura it naturally exuded, Lin Moyu had the illusion that he was about to be crushed.

"So strong!"

He knew that Outer Domain Celestial Gods were very strong, comparable to the Great Dao Realm, but Lin Moyu did not have much of a concept of the Great Dao Realm.

He did not have one before, but now he had a little bit of a concept.

If this Outer Domain Celestial God still had consciousness and wanted to kill him, it would not need to lift a finger; its aura alone would be enough.

He had no means to stop it; he could not block it at all.

The Great Dao Realm and the Dao Venerable Realm were simply not on the same level.

Fortunately, it was unconscious and locked here, so he had the chance to see it clearly.

Its limbs and appearance were seventy to eighty percent similar to the human race.

There were some peculiar patterns on its face, body, and arms.

They were not Dao Patterns, nor did they look like runes; they were not any totem Lin Moyu recognized.

On the backs of its hands and on its heels, there grew an inverted curved horn.

There was a pair of wings on its back. The wings should have originally had feathers, but they were gone now, likely blasted away by the lightning, leaving only bare skeletons.

Eight lightning chains descended, locking the Outer Domain Celestial God's hands, feet, neck, waist, and the pair of wing skeletons on its back, respectively.

Terrifying lightning continuously struck its body along the chains, keeping it in a comatose state.

Lin Moyu did not know how many years it had been imprisoned here, but he imagined it had not been a short time.

After so many years, the aura of the Outer Domain Celestial God remained intact, and apart from the feathers on its wings, there were almost no injuries on its entire body.

"If I kill it, would I be able to reap more Great Dao rewards?"

"Previously, I only killed half a Divine Pet, and the reward I received was enough to revive a cluster of stars."

"If I could kill this Outer Domain Celestial God, I should be able to revive a few more stars."

Lin Moyu thought to himself, but he knew he was being wishful.

How could an Outer Domain Celestial God be so easy to kill? If it were easy, these lightning bolts would have already killed it.

Lin Moyu could feel that these Thunder Dao powers were extremely strong, having already reached the level of the Dao Venerable 8th Realm or even the Ninth Realm of Dao Venerable.

If even this could not kill it, how was he supposed to kill it?

Should he use the Great Dao of Luck and the Luck Explosion Technique?

Lin Moyu was not confident.

"Little guy, was it you who killed the Divine Pet outside?"

A voice rang in his ear. Lin Moyu immediately turned his head and saw a golden-haired old man looking at him.

Chapter 2373: Return After Reaching the Ninth Realm of Dao Venerable

Lin Moyu had not noticed when the golden-haired old man appeared.

His spiritual senses had no reaction, which could only mean that either the other party had no malicious intent toward him, or the other party's strength was too great, exceeding the limits of his spiritual senses.

Lin Moyu could not feel the other party's cultivation level at all, and the more that was the case, the more terrifying it was.

He cupped his hands in a salute, "Junior Lin Moyu, greets Senior."

The old man had a gentle smile, "Little guy, I asked you a question."

Lin Moyu said, "That is correct, that half of the Divine Pet was indeed killed by this junior."

The old man said, "How did you kill it? Tell me in detail."

Facing this existence of unfathomable depth, Lin Moyu did not hide anything, "Junior used the Great Dao of Luck to first strip away its luck, and finally attacked with my own luck to kill it."

The old man did not speak, seemingly contemplating what Lin Moyu had said.

A moment later, he suddenly sighed, "It is indeed a good method, what a pity!"

Lin Moyu asked, "Pity for what?"

The old man said, "It is a pity that your cultivation level is still lacking, and your comprehension of the Great Dao is insufficient, so you still cannot kill that guy!"

The guy he was referring to was the Outer Domain Celestial God hanging in mid-air.

Lin Moyu asked, "Senior, could you tell me what is going on here?"

The old man squinted his eyes, "Naturally, you are the first person to arrive here in the last thousand years."

"And since you are the first to kill the gatekeeping Divine Pet, you should have some privileges."

"Since that is the case, I will tell you what is going on."

Lin Moyu perked up his ears; he knew he was about to hear some secrets.

The Thunder Secret Treasury is a Secret Realm, yet not entirely a Secret Realm.

Its existence can be traced back to prehistoric times, the era of the God-Slaughtering Sect.

Back then, a powerhouse of the Great Dao Realm fought an Outer Domain Celestial God here, and both sides were severely injured. The Outer Domain Celestial God possessed extremely strong regenerative abilities, and the Great Dao Realm powerhouse knew that if the battle dragged on, he would be the one to die.

He used his own life as the price to activate the Eternal Shackles, locking the Outer Domain Celestial God here.

The Eternal Shackles not only locked the physical body of the Outer Domain Celestial God but also its soul, and it did not even spare its pet.

That Great Dao Realm powerhouse originally had a chance to reincarnate, but he feared that after a long time, the Outer Domain Celestial God would escape.

After all, the Eternal Shackles were only called Eternal; they were not truly Eternal.

Just as Great Dao Realm powerhouses are called immortal, they are not truly immortal.

He simply gave up the chance for reincarnation and sacrificed his body to the Dao, forming this space.

The Great Dao Realm powerhouse could not kill the Outer Domain Celestial God, so he could only imprison it eternally.

As for the Secret Realm outside, it was not constructed by this Great Dao Realm powerhouse, but rather formed through the natural evolution of the Great Dao power that leaked out later.

The Great Dao Realm powerhouse who imprisoned the Outer Domain Celestial God is, needless to say, the old man before him.

Now, what remains of him is only a Remnant Soul; the person himself has long since perished.

This is the Great Dao Realm; even a Remnant Soul can live for a very, very long time, or even eternally.

However, this kind of immortality is no different from being dead.

The Thunder Secret Treasury was originally hidden in another layer of space and had no connection with the Real World.

As time passed and endless months flowed by, more than three thousand years ago, the Thunder Secret Treasury appeared on the land of the Eastern Continent.

After the Thunder Secret Treasury appeared, people began to enter.

Some people also reached the center of the storm, saw the Divine Pet, and even entered the interior.

There are many smart people in this world; Lin Moyu is definitely not the only one.

Among those who entered, the strongest was a powerhouse at the Ninth Realm of Dao Venerable.

He also collected Thunder Stones at that time but did not kill the Divine Pet because he could not kill it; however, the Divine Pet also could not kill him, nor could it stop him.

He came here and saw the Outer Domain Celestial God, but he also had no way to kill the Outer Domain Celestial God.

In the end, he could only leave the Secret Realm.

Later, two more people entered, two powerhouses at the Dao Venerable 8th Realm, one human and one demon.

They also could not do anything about the Outer Domain Celestial God and could only leave.

The old man's tone remained calm from beginning to end, "The first Ninth Realm of Dao Venerable to enter came back once later and brought some items related to the Thunder Dao."

"Although it did not help much, it was better than nothing."

"It's a pity. After so many years, we still cannot kill this guy, and I do not know how many more years this place can be maintained."

Lin Moyu looked at the Outer Domain Celestial God hanging in the sky, "At present, the situation seems stable."

The old man shook his head, "What you see is only the surface, not the essence. Even if it can remain stable for another few hundred thousand or a million years, what of it? As long as it does not die, sooner or later it will break free, and at that time…"

"However, what this world will be like at that time is unknown; perhaps another great war will begin."

Lin Moyu really wanted to ask what the great war was, but the old man shook his head gently, "No need to ask; your cultivation level is still far from sufficient."

Lin Moyu asked, "Senior, you locked up the Outer Domain Celestial God back then; over all these years, have you thought of a way to kill it?"

The old man said, "If I could have thought of one, it would not have dragged on until now."

Lin Moyu said, "Junior has killed another Divine Pet, but at that time a Star Sovereign took action; I used the Great Dao of Luck to severely injure the Divine Pet, and the Star Sovereign did the killing."

"If I use the Great Dao of Luck to attack it, could Senior kill it?"

The old man squinted and smiled, "Divine Pets and Outer Domain Celestial Gods are completely different. A Divine Pet is like a blade of grass; although it can straighten back up after being bent, if you use a bit more force, you can still trample it to death."

"An Outer Domain Celestial God is like a tree; you cannot trample it to death just by stepping on it; you must use other methods."

Lin Moyu said, "Could Senior tell this junior the method to kill the Outer Domain Celestial God?"

Although this senior could not kill the Outer Domain Celestial God, he must know the method to kill it; he just could not do it.

Just as he said at the beginning, if his cultivation level were higher, perhaps he could kill the Outer Domain Celestial God.

The old man said, "Wanting to kill an Outer Domain Celestial God is actually not difficult, but also not easy. The first way is to crush it with the Great Dao. Of course, your Great Dao must be strong enough. I am at the same level as it, and my Great Dao cannot break through its Divine Body."

Lin Moyu heard another term: Divine Body.

One difference between an Outer Domain Celestial God and a Divine Pet is the Divine Body.

A Divine Pet only possesses a fraction of a Divine Body and is already so difficult to kill.

Yet an Outer Domain Celestial God possesses a complete Divine Body, and the strength of the Divine Body's defense is appalling.

The Divine Body not only protects the physical body but also protects the soul; it has almost no weaknesses.

Great Dao Realm powerhouses using Great Dao power find it very difficult to break a Divine Body of the same level, let alone the Dao Venerable Realm. The Dao Venerable Realm only borrows a portion of the Great Dao power and cannot be compared to the Great Dao Realm at all.

However, Lin Moyu felt that it also depends on what kind of Great Dao it is.

If it is the Primordial Great Dao, it might be a different story.

The old man continued, "The second method is also the Great Dao, but the Great Dao of Void."

"The Great Dao of Void has an advantage when dealing with Outer Domain Celestial Gods; even if you are one or two realms lower, you can still break their Divine Body."

Lin Moyu expressed his understanding; he had already tried it, and it was indeed possible.

The old man said, "If you were already at the Ninth Realm of Dao Venerable, perhaps your Great Dao of Luck could break its Divine Body."

"Why don't you go back and cultivate, and return after reaching the Ninth Realm of Dao Venerable."

Chapter 2374: Lin Moyu Who Refuses to Give Up

What the old man said was a method, and he could afford to wait.

But Lin Moyu did not want to wait; the Outer Domain Celestial God was right in front of him, and in his view, this was a massive amount of Great Dao rewards.

If he could get it, the benefits would be huge…

Lin Moyu asked, "Senior, if I kill it, will the Great Dao rewards I receive be more than killing a Divine Pet?"

The old man shook his head, "It is different. The Great Dao rewards received from killing a Divine Pet cannot be chosen. Killing an Outer Domain Celestial God allows you to choose the rewards."

Lin Moyu's eyes suddenly lit up, "What kind of rewards can I get?"

The old man said, "Many. Basically, everything you can think of is available."

Lin Moyu said, "Then what if I want to condense Dao Patterns?"

The old man understood Lin Moyu's thoughts, "That is also possible, but it cannot exceed your limit, at least not by too much. Great Dao rewards can help you reach your true limit."
