Chapter 2585: With a thought, the Undead Legion surged forward in a mighty force, carrying boundless killing intent as they charged toward the center of the Nether Race.

Chapter 2585: Killing Him Requires a Reason

In Xiao Mei's eyes, Lin Moyu had always been unfathomable. Even after Xiao Mei merged with the memories of her past life, she still could not see through him.

The less she could see through him, the more Xiao Mei felt her choice to follow Lin Moyu was correct; there were only benefits and no drawbacks. At this moment, she finally caught a glimpse of his true nature, merely the tip of the iceberg.

It had finally surfaced, but the moment it did, it brought her unimaginable shock. On the Origin Continent, any faction facing an army of twenty billion Dao Venerable 5th Realm soldiers would likely fall into despair, feeling an indescribable sense of powerlessness.

Even those at the Ninth Realm of Dao Venerable wouldn't fear them, but wanting to slaughter them all would be extremely difficult. By the time a Ninth Realm of Dao Venerable expert made a move, the army would likely have already wiped everyone else out. Under the command of a thousand Legion Commanders, the twenty billion-strong Undead Army…

…quickly formed a massive encirclement. They did not charge in directly; instead, they first surrounded the Nether Race's territory and then advanced by shrinking the encirclement. The Undead Legion originally left on the outermost perimeter did not move, preventing the Nether Clan from having any way to escape the inner encirclement.

With multi-layered encirclement and coordinated combat, Lin Moyu ensured that not a single member of the Nether Race could escape. Lin Moyu took Xiao Mei and advanced behind the Undead Legion. In his mind…

…the map of the entire Nether Race, except for the most core area, was already complete. There were still forty-two village settlements waiting for him to visit. Xiao Mei asked, "Teacher, why didn't you do this from the beginning?"

Lin Moyu replied, "Use your brain. Think about it carefully." Xiao Mei thought for a moment and asked, "Teacher, are you worried about the hell fragment?"

Lin Moyu nodded slightly, his gaze looking into the distance. "I have to be worried. The hell fragment is a very troublesome thing; if handled poorly, it could destroy the entire Origin Continent. Once it is allowed to grow…"

…"even a Great Dao Realm expert might not be able to suppress it. One of the reasons Buddha Sansheng was willing to hand over Hell to the Nether Race is that Buddha Sansheng could not truly suppress the hell fragment. It is precisely because of this…"

…"that it was better to give away this hot potato. Those were the exact words Buddha Sansheng said. When he discovered the hell fragment, it had already grown somewhat. In his Buddhist Kingdom, large areas had been contaminated by the hell fragment."

"He exerted his full strength, but could only shrink the hell fragment and temporarily seal it. He could not truly suppress it. In fact, Lin Moyu knew that as long as the hell fragment truly awakened and had some time to recover, let alone a Pseudo-Great Dao Realm expert, even a true Great Dao Realm expert could not suppress it."

"That is exactly why the three ancestors were so wary of it." Xiao Mei continued Lin Moyu's words, "Perhaps Buddha Sansheng felt that the Nether Race could deal with the hell fragment. After all, the Nether Race comes from the Nether Black Pool, and the Nether Black Pool was once a part of Hell." Lin Moyu shook his head.

"The Nether Race isn't capable of dealing with the hell fragment; rather, they have a way to utilize it. If I guessed correctly, it's that Nether Black Dragon in the Nether Black Pool that wants the hell fragment. The hell fragment should be able to help it recover."

Xiao Mei gasped, seemingly worried. Lin Moyu said, "There is no need to worry too much. It is not that easy for it to recover. Moreover, the Nether Clan originally already had a hell fragment. If it could recover, it would have already done so." Hearing Lin Moyu say this…

…Xiao Mei finally relaxed a little. Lin Moyu smiled and said, "People are just like that. The more they know, the more they worry. Xiao Mei, the knowledge from your past life is indeed valuable, but sometimes, you cannot rely too much on your past life."

"You must remember that in this life, you are an independent and brand-new individual. Take the good things from your past life and throw away all the bad things. Understand?"

If Xiao Mei did not know the knowledge of her past life, she wouldn't be worried at all. Sometimes, ignorance is bliss; it is not necessarily a bad thing. Xiao Mei understood Lin Moyu's words. The teacher was actually trying to tell Xiao Mei that she must learn to control herself. Lin Moyu chuckled.

"That's right, learn to control. Control your heart, control your impulses, control your emotions, and temper an incomparably strong Dao Heart. Only in this way can you truly master yourself." Xiao Mei nodded. "Xiao Mei understands."

The two walked into a village. The village was already empty. Previously, there should have been members of the Nether Race in the village settlements, but the Nether Race had been slaughtered by the Undead Legion. In the village, there had originally been over a hundred cultivators kept like pigs. Their consciousness had been stolen.

Their souls were only left with a sliver; they could no longer be called human. Therefore, Lin Moyu also ordered the Undead Legion that upon seeing such people kept in captivity, they were to be killed immediately, wishing for them to be reincarnated sooner.

The Nether Black Dragon in the Bone Hell began to feast once again, devouring the ancient wells formed by the fragments of the Nether Black Pool, including the fragments at the bottom of the ancient wells. The Undead Legion was like a plague of locusts; wherever they passed…

…not a single member of the Nether Race could survive. Moreover, the Undead Legion launched attacks from all directions simultaneously, giving the Nether Race no chance to react at all.

In the following days, Lin Moyu simply walked into the village settlements and released the Nether Black Dragon to devour the fragments of the Nether Black Pool. The black dragon in the Bone Hell grew stronger and stronger, having already completely surpassed the Hell Fierce Spirits.

It was almost about to reach another level, but it seemed to be restricted by something and could not break through no matter what. Lin Moyu knew that it was the Bone Hell restricting it; the Nether Black Pool was a part of the Bone Hell.

It was a part of the Nether Black Pool, so its realm at its highest could not exceed the Bone Hell. "Keep devouring, just treat it as accumulation." Lin Moyu could feel it.

Although the Nether Black Dragon had been unable to break through for a long time and its power was no longer rising, the Nether Black Pool was still becoming clearer. Therefore, devouring the Nether Black Pool fragments was still useful; he could continue to devour and accumulate first.

The only thing missing now was the hell fragment. As long as he had the hell fragment and the Bone Hell was upgraded, the Nether Black Pool would naturally be able to sublimate. Among the forty-two village settlements, when he reached the thirty-ninth village…

…a Legion Commander suddenly sent information that he had discovered a living person here. Moreover, the person said they knew him. Lin Moyu walked over with curiosity and met the survivor.

Upon seeing the person, Lin Moyu did indeed recognize him. The person was called Mu Chuan. He was one of the people who had left the Great World back then. He had thought they would never meet again, but he did not expect to run into him here.

"Thank you for saving me, World Lord!" Mu Chuan's eyes were still filled with terror, and he was almost kneeling before Lin Moyu. Lin Moyu said, "From the moment you left, you and I have had no relationship."

"You being saved today is just because you are lucky. As for the future, whether you can survive or how long you can live has nothing to do with me." Mu Chuan's face stiffened. "World Lord, it was Mu Chuan's fault back then."

"Please, World Lord, give Mu Chuan one more chance." Lin Moyu shook his head slightly. "There will be no chances." Chapter 2586: Nether God Lord, Protect Our Clan

"What I have said, I will never change." After saying this, Lin Moyu turned and left. Mu Chuan knelt on the ground, begging Lin Moyu. "World Lord, give me another chance! Give me another chance!"

Lin Moyu ignored him and walked further and further away. Watching Lin Moyu's departing back, a trace of hatred actually appeared in Mu Chuan's eyes. This hatred could not hide from Lin Moyu at all, but Lin Moyu didn't care in the slightest.

Xiao Mei whispered, "Teacher, he hates you." Lin Moyu did not care. "There are many people in the world who hate me; one more doesn't make a difference." Xiao Mei said, "But Xiao Mei feels he shouldn't be like this. It was clearly Teacher who saved him, yet he hates Teacher. That's wrong!"

Lin Moyu chuckled. "Then what does Xiao Mei think should be done?" Xiao Mei said, "Such a person who cannot distinguish good from bad should not live in this world." Lin Moyu smiled. "We were acquaintances, after all. Killing him requires a reason." Xiao Mei said…

…"Then give him a reason. Please, Teacher, use Time Reversal." Lin Moyu seemed to have expected Xiao Mei to say this long ago. Without saying any superfluous words, he directly used the Great Dao of Time. "Time Reversal!"

The Great Dao of Time cast a projection, revealing what had happened in this village. In Time Reversal, everything Mu Chuan had done was displayed in the projection. Why had everyone else died, but he alone could live? Because he had become a person of the Nether Race.

There were several times he went out. It was always him leading the Nether Race members out, and when returning, it was also him leading them. As a human, although Mu Chuan was not from the Origin Continent, he was still a human nonetheless.

Having struggled and crawled in the Southern Continent for so long, he could be considered to have some understanding of the Southern Continent. I don't know how he hooked up with the Nether Race. Thus, he became a lackey and informant for the Nether Race. Every time the Nether Race could successfully capture human cultivators from the Southern Continent, it was likely that he had contributed to it.

So everyone else died, but he remained safe and sound. Seeing this, Xiao Mei said, "The reason is sufficient." Lin Moyu said, "Does Xiao Mei want to do it yourself?" Xiao Mei nodded. She turned and walked toward Mu Chuan.

Xiao Mei looked like a child, but with the memories of her past life, she was not an ordinary child. She had done plenty of killing in her past life; Xiao Mei would not be soft-hearted. However, Mu Chuan at least had the cultivation of the Heavenly Venerable Realm, and Xiao Mei was currently only in the Super God Realm.

She was not his match yet. Lin Moyu moved his mind, and a vast power descended. Mu Chuan was instantly unable to move. Xiao Mei walked to Mu Chuan, and the cloud-piercing sword automatically flew into Xiao Mei's hand. Xiao Mei slowly stabbed the cloud-piercing sword into Mu Chuan's body. "You deserve to die!"

Throughout the entire process, Mu Chuan's eyes were filled with terror, but unfortunately, he could not speak or move. Until the moment he died and stopped breathing, he couldn't make a sound. Xiao Mei returned.

Her voice was low. "For so many years, the Nether Race has been able to silently capture so many people. There must have been some people among the human race who colluded with them. If possible, Xiao Mei requests Teacher to find all these people." Lin Moyu smiled and said, "Xiao Mei has so much confidence in Teacher?"

Xiao Mei said, "If even Teacher cannot find them, Xiao Mei believes others will find them even less." Xiao Mei now had a fanatical confidence in Lin Moyu. She believed that Lin Moyu would definitely be able to find them, and Mu Chuan was just one of them.
