Chapter 2589

Otherwise, the Nether Race wouldn't do such a foolish thing. Lin Moyu took Xiao Mei and flew high into the sky.

Looking down at the crater, Xiao Mei's eyes suddenly widened. Inside the volcano…

…a massive black dragon was coiled up. Half its body was submerged in the magma, seemingly asleep.

Lin Moyu whispered, "So that's how it is. This crater is the Nether Black Pool."

"This is the heavily injured black dragon," Xiao Mei said. "It should still be sleeping."

"I feel it's very powerful." Xiao Mei had memories of her past life and possessed excellent vision.

Upon seeing the black dragon, she felt uneasy, sensing extreme danger.

She felt that even her past self would be no match for this black dragon. Lin Moyu said,

"I don't know how strong this fellow is now, but it must have been incredibly powerful once. What a pity."

Such a powerful existence still couldn't escape fate. By now,

Lin Moyu fully understood what the Nether Race was doing. The Nether Black Dragon was severely injured and wouldn't wake up.

Perhaps only a faint wisp of its will remained, which was passed down to every member of the Nether Race through the Nether Black Pool.

All members of the Nether Race took it as their mission to revive the black dragon. This time,

they were using the hell fragment to fuse with the Nether Black Pool, hoping to revive the black dragon.

The black dragon manifested in the ancient well earlier was merely a fragmented will left by the true Nether Black Dragon. Compared to the actual dragon body,

it was like the difference between a firefly and the bright moon. Xiao Mei asked, "Teacher,"

"what should we do now?"

Xiao Mei's voice carried a slight tremor; she was clearly somewhat afraid of the black dragon.

Lin Moyu knew it wasn't that Xiao Mei was a coward, but rather that upon seeing the black dragon,

one would instinctively feel fear. Not just Xiao Mei, even someone in the Great Dao Realm coming here

would feel the same. The Three Ancestors were even afraid of a hell fragment, let alone the true Nether Black Dragon.

Lin Moyu believed that the Nether Black Dragon could likely kill ordinary Great Dao Realm experts easily in the past.

But strangely, when he saw the Nether Black Dragon, he didn't feel any fear at all.

Not only was there no fear, on the contrary, toward the Nether Black Dragon,

he felt a hint of familiarity. Intuition told him that what the Nether Race was doing was wrong.

This wouldn't wake the Nether Black Dragon. As for the correct method, Lin Moyu didn't know either.

Lin Moyu shook his head slightly. "Let's watch first, no rush."

Although he didn't know how to deal with the Nether Black Dragon, he had no problem staying alive, so Lin Moyu wasn't in a hurry.

More and more flames were spewed into the sky. Suddenly, the entire earth shook violently.

Except for the area around the crater, the entire city collapsed, completely turning into a world of lava.

The ground rose from its roots amidst the roaring sounds, slowly flying toward the sky. Lin Moyu narrowed his eyes.

This floating piece of land was seventy to eighty percent similar to his Bone Hell.

The aura of hell erupted, spreading in all directions, bringing an atmosphere of immense terror.

Xiao Mei suppressed her inner palpitations. "They've manifested this place into hell!"

Chapter 3291: Both the Nether Black Dragon and Not the Nether Black Dragon

The core city of the Nether Race was manifested into hell.

However, this hell was different from the true hell of the past, and also completely different from Lin Moyu's Bone Hell.

It used the Nether Black Pool as its core, allowing the pool to absorb the power of two hell fragments for manifestation.

And the Nether Black Dragon within the Nether Black Pool seemed to become the new master of hell at this moment, overseeing everything.

Vaguely, Lin Moyu felt something was still not quite right. Xiao Mei also spoke up at this time.

"Teacher, I feel something is wrong." Lin Moyu said,

"Tell me." Xiao Mei said, "The Nether Black Dragon shows no signs of waking up."

"Teacher also said just now that this won't revive the Nether Black Dragon. And as far as I know,"

"hell and the Nether Black Pool are actually independent. So I feel"

"that the Nether God Lord these people are calling for isn't actually the Nether Black Dragon, but someone else."

Since entering the Nether Race's territory, all members had been shouting for the Nether God Lord. Lin Moyu and Xiao Mei had also assumed

that the Nether God Lord was the Nether Black Dragon. After all, the Nether Race came from the Nether Black Pool, and its master

was the Nether Black Dragon. This was a subjective thought. Now, Xiao Mei suddenly raised a doubt.

She had memories of her past life. As the ancestor of a Holy Land, the things she could access

were naturally incomparable to ordinary people. She could see many secret records.

Combined with Lin Moyu's training over the past few days, constantly encouraging Xiao Mei to think deeply and find the root of problems,

she was able to see more information. Lin Moyu smiled. "Good."

Being able to see this showed that Xiao Mei's insight was already quite remarkable.

"The Nether God Lord is indeed not the Nether Black Dragon, but in fact, he is also the Nether Black Dragon." Xiao Mei looked a bit surprised.

"Please enlighten me, Teacher." Lin Moyu said, "Besides that Lord of Hell,"

"the master of the Nether Black Pool is naturally the Nether Black Dragon. Based on this, Xiao Mei, think about it."

"After the Nether Black Pool was shattered, why would it manifest the Nether Race?" Xiao Mei thought for a moment and said,

"The entire Nether Black Pool is filled with the Nether Black Dragon's will, so manifesting the Nether Race must also be its will." Lin Moyu said,

"Exactly. The manifestation of the Nether Race must be dominated by the Nether Black Dragon's will, utilizing some of the Nether Black Pool's abilities."

"But Xiao Mei, have you thought about why it wanted to manifest the Nether Race?"

Xiao Mei said instinctively,

"It should be for self-rescue." Lin Moyu's smile widened. Xiao Mei's answer

was already very good. "Yes, it's for self-rescue."

"The Nether Black Dragon knew it was severely injured and couldn't recover, so it manifested the Nether Race."

"It wanted to revive in another way. There are essentially two methods: one is from the manifested Nether Race members"

"to pick a suitable one to become its host. The second is to put all effort into manifesting the strongest Nether Race member"

"to serve as its host. Xiao Mei, if it were you,"

"what would you do?"

After thinking, Xiao Mei said, "I would choose the second one."

Lin Moyu laughed. "It seems the Nether Black Dragon thought the same as you. Then think again,"

"how could he ensure he manifested a powerful host?" Xiao Mei's mind continued to race, searching for the answer.

Over the past few days, this mode of Lin Moyu asking and her answering

had become an instinct for her. Lin Moyu patiently guided her,

making her thinking ability stronger and stronger. After just a few seconds, Xiao Mei's eyes lit up with the answer.

"It used the hell fragment!"

Lin Moyu had said before that the Nether Race had a hell fragment.

Why did the Nether Race have a hell fragment? Naturally, it fell here along with the Nether Black Pool when hell shattered.

It's highly likely that the hell fragment was obtained by the Nether Black Dragon. Using the hell fragment,

combined with the power of the Nether Black Pool, it wouldn't be surprising to manifest a powerful host.

Lin Moyu said, "Well said. It should be using the power of the hell fragment for manifestation."

"In this world, if anyone can use the power of a hell fragment, besides myself,"

"it's probably only the Nether Black Dragon. Other than that, I can't think of anyone else."

After using the hell fragment to manifest a host, the Nether Black Dragon could discard its former body and transfer its entire consciousness into the new one.

Then it could continue using the Nether Black Pool to manifest the Nether Race. Therefore,

the Nether God Lord the Nether Race speaks of is both the Nether Black Dragon and not the Nether Black Dragon.

The shattered city flew into the high sky, completely turning into ruins as the ground became a sea of fire.

Only the vicinity of the crater remained intact. Countless Nether Race members were surrounding it.

Constantly shouting for the Nether God Lord. From within the volcano, an unusually strong heartbeat could be heard.

Every time a heartbeat occurred, the crater would erupt with infinite flames and a large amount of black gas.

The black gas and Red Fire intersected, and a figure faintly appeared. "The main character is coming out!"

Lin Moyu said softly. The heartbeat grew faster, and the figure became more solid.

Finally, his appearance could be clearly seen. His feet were stepped on the Nether Black Dragon's head, and his whole body emitted a black glow.

From head to toe, he was black. The flames illuminated him.

Within the light, countless fine scales appeared. His shape was humanoid, with two arms and two legs.

But his face was that of the Dragon Race, and a pair of dragon horns grew atop his head. His hands didn't look like human hands either,

but like dragon claws. He was half-human and half-dragon, standing on the Nether Black Dragon's body like that.

He raised one hand high, and a ball of fire was drawn to him, crashing down upon him.

He was surrounded by flames, burning fiercely. Even the Nether Black Dragon beneath him

was enveloped in flames. At this moment, the voices of the Nether Race members grew louder.

And more crazed, they continuously kowtowed to this half-human, half-dragon fellow, including the two Ninth Realm of Dao Venerable members.

They were also kowtowing frantically, their expressions filled with zeal. Lin Moyu watched this.

He smiled and said, "So that's what's going on. Xiao Mei, did you see clearly?"

Xiao Mei nodded. "I saw clearly!"

The aura on this half-human, half-dragon monster is very strange.

Unlike other Nether Race members, his aura is more noble. It's not about how strong the power is,

but a natural superiority, a feeling of being high and mighty. Not just for the Nether Race,

even Xiao Mei felt something similar upon seeing him. Lin Moyu saw it clearly.

Within the flames, this half-human, half-dragon Nether God Lord was undergoing a transformation.

His feet were connected to the Nether Black Dragon and seemed inseparable. But by using the power of the flames,

his feet were detaching from the Nether Black Dragon. The power of the flames came from the hell fragment; he was also a host manifested using its power.

Clearly, the power of one hell fragment wasn't enough to truly sever his connection to the Nether Black Dragon.

Nor was it enough to escape the constraints of the Nether Black Pool. That's why he had never appeared before the world for all these years.

Now that there was a second hell fragment, he finally had the chance to break free from the Nether Black Dragon and leave the Nether Black Pool.

Chapter 3292: What do you know? You don't understand at all

Once he succeeds in moving freely, it will be equivalent to Rebirth.

And he would possess extraordinary strength right from birth. Even if he only had ten percent of his past life's combat power, it would be terrifying.

Lin Moyu judged that his strength wouldn't be lower than the Great Dao Realm. Lin Moyu suddenly whispered,

"Can't wait any longer!"
