Chapter 3229

When Little Python evolved, he indeed awakened a portion of his past life's memories, though they were only some fragmented scenes.

As Little Python described these scenes one by one, Lin Moyu was surprised to discover that Little Python's past life was actually related to the legendary Tianxu Palace.

Tianxu Palace was a legend in the Void World; whether it truly existed or not, no one knew.

Even the several Emperor Venerables could not confirm the reality of Tianxu Palace, but now, through Little Python's description, Lin Moyu could be certain.

Tianxu Palace existed. Back when he merged the Small Spirit Domain, he had seen scenes resembling Tianxu Palace.

This happened to correspond with what Little Python said, thus corroborating the existence of Tianxu Palace. But where exactly did Tianxu Palace exist?

It remained a mystery. Little Python murmured,

"Master."

"Do you think in my past life, I might have been a gatekeeper for Tianxu Palace?" In Little Python's descriptions, the gate of Tianxu Palace appeared the most.

This was also the scene he saw the most in his awakened memories. Lin Moyu smiled and said,

"It's hard to say. Maybe you really were the gatekeeper beast of Tianxu Palace."

"What kind of place is Tianxu Palace? I was actually just a gatekeeper. Then how powerful must the master of Tianxu Palace have been?"

Lin Moyu said,

"As long as it is something within the Domain, no matter how powerful, there is a limit."

"Moreover, Tianxu Palace has only been a legend for countless years. Whether it still exists now is really hard to say."

"There's no need to think about it. If you really were the gatekeeper beast of Tianxu Palace, karma connects you."

"Perhaps one day you will be able to return to Tianxu Palace—provided it still exists, of course." Little Python nodded.

"Alright. Anyway, no matter what my past life was, right now I am just Master's little mount."

Little Python was very straightforward; he had set his mind on Lin Moyu and was content to be a mount.

Soon, they arrived before a Beast Abyss. Lin Moyu said in a low voice,

"I want to enter the Beast Abyss."

"Are you coming?"

At this time, Little Python's strength had greatly increased, and he even had the confidence to go head-to-head with an Emperor Venerable.

With an attitude of being second only to one in the world, he thought, "A mere Beast Abyss, what is there to fear?"

Lin Moyu let out a light laugh. "Then let's go in." Little Python let out a sharp screech and charged into the Beast Abyss.

Lin Moyu had long wanted to investigate the secrets within the Beast Abyss. There were not many things in the Five-World Domain that he didn't know, and the Beast Abyss was one of them.

As for the due boat, the seed of karma had already been sown, and they would meet sooner or later.

Therefore, there was no need to deliberately search for it. Upon entering the Beast Abyss, Little Python and Lin Moyu simultaneously heard the sound of the Beast Abyss.

This sound could bewilder the soul and held a fatal attraction for Void Beasts. Void Beasts below the first-grade soul who heard this sound…

…would be unable to resist it. Even for first-grade soul Void Beasts, most of them could not resist it either.

Only a small portion of first-grade soul Void Beasts could resist the sound of the Beast Abyss and remain firm in their resolve. The sound of the Beast Abyss had no effect whatsoever on Lin Moyu and Little Python.

Ignoring the sound, they flew toward the depths of the Beast Abyss. Before they had flown for long, gusts of the Wind of Annihilation blew toward them.

The Wind of Annihilation from the Beast Abyss was no different from the Wind of Annihilation within the rules of the Great Dao. It was enough to disperse the souls of Dao Masters; one had to be at least a Lord of the Great Dao to resist it.

Those first-grade soul Void Beasts that came upon hearing the sound of the Beast Abyss would not be attacked by the Wind of Annihilation. The targets of the Wind of Annihilation's attacks were outsiders like Lin Moyu.

The Wind of Annihilation could also be considered the first layer of defense of the Beast Abyss, though this defense was not very strong. "This wind is quite cool."

"Quite comfortable!"

Little Python did not care at all, his voice carrying a hint of disdain.

Lin Moyu said nothing. After Little Python evolved, his strength had greatly increased.

While he remained loyal, he had also become somewhat conceited. If this conceit was not corrected, Little Python would suffer a loss sooner or later.

Lin Moyu had a premonition that the setback meant for Little Python would arrive very soon. Even Emperor Venerables would not dare to be as arrogant as Little Python when entering the Beast Abyss.

Obviously, the Beast Abyss was not as simple as imagined. Passing through the Wind of Annihilation, they had officially entered the territory of the Beast Abyss.

Void Beasts appeared in their line of sight. These Void Beasts seemed to come from various regions, appearing very abruptly in the void.

Then, they flew down toward the bottom of the Beast Abyss. Lin Moyu understood with a single glance that no matter where a first-grade soul Void Beast entered this Beast Abyss from,

even if they entered from some smaller Beast Abysses, they would eventually be teleported here. The first-grade soul Void Beasts that arrived here…

…had already lost their sanity, filled with bewilderment, and would only act according to the orders of the Beast Abyss.

They descended to the bottom of the Beast Abyss, lining up like a long dragon, moving along a road shrouded in mist.

Occasionally, the sound of water could be heard, as if there was a river beneath the mist. There seemed to be nothing here except Void Beasts.

These Void Beasts also paid no attention to Lin Moyu and Little Python. Lin Moyu recalled Antares's narration from back then; not long after Antares arrived here,

someone had come to find him. At that time, the other party told Antares to line up properly, but Antares refused to listen.

He even killed many of them, which resulted in a fight. Naturally, Lin Moyu would not line up properly either.

The queue stretched into the distance. Judging by the speed of their advance, without three to five years,

they wouldn't get very far at all. Furthermore, they had no idea what lay in the distance, and it might well take even more time.

He gestured for Little Python to fly forward. Little Python took the lead without hesitation, charging forward past a large number of Void Beasts.

The mist ahead dispersed, and what met their eyes was still an endless stream of Void Beasts, countless in number.

Their numbers were astonishing, as if all the first-grade soul Void Beasts in the entire Void World were gathered here. Little Python murmured,

"Why are there so many first-grade Void Beasts?" Lin Moyu said,

"Perhaps we will know the answer in a moment."

A moment later, there was movement from the mist below. Lin Moyu saw Soul Fire appearing within the mist.

Knowing that trouble was coming, a group of figures rushed out from the mist, heading straight for Lin Moyu.

"Soul-Devouring Spirits?"

Lin Moyu was slightly shocked. This group consisted of about a hundred figures.

Their appearance was exactly the same as Soul-Devouring Spirits, but sensing them carefully, these guys only resembled Soul-Devouring Spirits in appearance.

They were actually not Soul-Devouring Spirits, and their level of power was only at the Great Dao Realm. "Line up."

"Otherwise, die!"

Threads of intent were transmitted over.

This situation was exactly the same as what Antares had encountered back then. Naturally, Lin Moyu would not be polite. With a wave of his hand, the World-Burning Fire swept out.

The World-Burning Fire could refine even Soul-Devouring Spirits, let alone these weaker fellows. Almost in an instant, they were burned to ashes.

Little Python said in a low voice,

"So weak."

Lin Moyu said,

"Then I'll leave the rest to you to deal with."

Little Python boasted shamelessly, "No problem. Leave it to me!" Soon, another group of figures charged out from the mist. This time, they no longer told Lin Moyu to line up,

but directly attacked. Lin Moyu felt that the second wave of figures was slightly stronger than the first.

Disregarding everything, Little Python immediately took action. Opening his python mouth wide, he spat out stream after stream of attacks,

instantly wiping out this group.

Chapter 4210: Yellow Springs

Group after group of figures emerged continuously from the mist.

All of them were easily killed by Little Python. The more he killed, the more thrilled he became, and his conceit grew even more.

Lin Moyu did not bother to stop him, knowing that after experiencing an evolution and a massive surge in power, he needed a process of adaptation.

He also needed to suffer a setback to truly recognize himself. Lin Moyu could already clearly sense

that these figures, who resembled Soul-Devouring Spirits, were gradually growing stronger. Not only was their own power increasing,

but their defense was also strengthening. They were adapting to Little Python's attacks, yet the conceited Little Python did not notice this at all.

He continued his slaughter. Although the sound of the Beast Abyss could not bewilder Little Python, it still had some influence on him,

causing him to temporarily lose his composure. This situation was somewhat similar to Antares's past experience; afterward, Antares's memory of this place was incomplete,

also because of the sound of the Beast Abyss. After killing an unknown number of them, the emerging Soul-Devouring Spirits finally became stronger.

Their aura was already not much weaker than Little Python's. Most importantly, they had already adapted to Little Python's attacks. Finding that his attacks were ineffective,

Little Python immediately switched to another method of attack, but it was still useless. "How can this be?!"

Screeching, Little Python turned his head to call for Lin Moyu's help. But at this moment,

Lin Moyu stayed far away, completely ignoring Little Python. Not only that,

as Lin Moyu retreated, he even gave Little Python a push, sending him right into the enemy's encirclement.

Cruelly abandoned, Little Python shrieked and began to engage in close combat. Since spell attacks were ineffective,

he could only fight hand-to-hand. Relying on his formidable physical strength, Little Python once again gained the upper hand.

But the good times did not last. Before long, the opponents adapted to Little Python's physical attacks, and all of his methods became completely useless.

These creatures that resembled Soul-Devouring Spirits manifested sharp claws and clawed fiercely at Little Python's body.

His hard scales were clawed to pieces, and Little Python cried out in pain continuously. "Master…"

"…help me, Master!"

Little Python screamed.

He thrashed wildly within the encirclement, attempting to break out, but no matter how he struggled, it was to no avail.

This was the consequence of conceit. Although Antares had also been arrogant back then, he was not as conceited as Little Python.

At the final moment, Antares had still managed to escape. Under Lin Moyu's manipulation, Little Python had lost his chance to flee.

The wounds on his body grew heavier and heavier. Little Python was beaten to tears, feeling as if he was going to die again.

"I don't want to die! Master, help!"

Little Python's cries grew weaker and weaker. At the final moment, he finally saw a mass of fire descend from the sky.

In an instant, all the enemies besieging him were engulfed by the fire. Lin Moyu stepped through the flames and arrived.

Looking down at Little Python, he asked, "Enjoying yourself?"

Little Python cried out weakly,

"Not at all, Master. Did Little Python do something wrong?"

"Why did you treat Little Python like this?" Lin Moyu said,

"I am helping you."

Little Python uttered an "Ah," completely failing to understand the meaning behind Lin Moyu's words. Lin Moyu said,

"I am helping you clearly recognize your own level, helping you integrate your evolved power, and helping you stabilize your Dao Heart."

"Feel it now. Is channeling your power much easier than before?" Little Python tried hard to feel it.

He found that it was indeed somewhat different. Although he was very weak right now, channeling his power was indeed easier than before.

Lin Moyu said,

"The power you obtained after evolving is too immense; you couldn't control it yourself."

"It unknowingly affected your Dao Heart, making you conceited. Consider this a small lesson for you."

"It also allows you to comprehend the true essence of power. No matter how strong the power is, we must control it,"

"rather than being controlled by it." Little Python gave an "Oh," roughly understanding Lin Moyu's words.

"Thank you, Master. Little Python understands a bit now." Lin Moyu waved his hand, sending a strand of the Power of Life onto Little Python's body.
