Chapter 3289

Lin Moyu said,

"Some guy has been hiding for countless years, wanting to kill someone."

"But he failed." He didn't explain too much to Mist; she was very simple-minded.

Like his own daughter, there was no need for her to know about dark and shady matters. Among the four of them, including Xiaowu, Xiaoyue, and Xiaomei,

perhaps only Xiaomei would understand this matter. However, Lin Moyu didn't intend to tell her either; treating them all equally was important.

Xiaomei was also very smart and never asked too many questions. Mist had already forgotten about what had just happened in the blink of an eye.

With a "wow," she jumped onto Lin Moyu, hanging onto her familiar spot, greedily inhaling his scent.

Not having seen them for ten thousand years, Lin Moyu missed them too and chatted with them.

Lin Moyu talked about some of his experiences over the years, keeping it very simple, as if telling a story.

He omitted a lot. Once they had chatted enough, he released the true spirits of Mist and the others,

merging them into the Great Dao he had drawn over earlier, helping them ascend to Dao Masters. At the same time,

inside the Void World, a thought of Lin Moyu's manifested and appeared before the Lord of Slaughter.

In his hand, he still held the Mo Lan dagger. Seeing the dagger in Lin Moyu's hand, the Lord of Slaughter shuddered all over, "Domain Lord."

Lin Moyu looked at him. "Do you know what happened?"

The Lord of Slaughter shook his head.

"For some reason, that dagger suddenly flew away on its own just now. I couldn't control it at all."

His voice trembled slightly. He had already guessed that the dagger's sudden departure was likely related to Lin Moyu, but he didn't know what had transpired.

Fearing that Lin Moyu would blame him, Lin Moyu said,

"There was a guy hiding inside the dagger."

"He wanted to kill me." The Lord of Slaughter's eyes widened. "How could that be?"

Lin Moyu threw the dagger back to him. "I don't blame you for this. He was hidden very deeply."

"Even I didn't notice him before. Now he has been burned to death by me. You can continue using this dagger."

The Lord of Slaughter caught the dagger. "You really don't blame me?"

Lin Moyu said,

"It wasn't your fault to begin with, and even if you had known, you couldn't have done anything about it. This matter is very complicated."

"It's not something you can get involved in. Let me see that black robe." Without a second thought, the Lord of Slaughter handed the black robe to Lin Moyu.

This time, Lin Moyu examined it very carefully, his soul searching back and forth within the black robe. A moment later,

a cold smile appeared at the corner of Lin Moyu's mouth. "As expected, there's another backup plan." The World-Burning Fire surged into the black robe with a roar.

A miserable shriek instantly rang out. The Lord of Slaughter shuddered as he heard it, his expression changing drastically.

It wasn't because he was a coward, but because the shriek carried a powerful soul pressure that far surpassed his own.

He knew very well that only the Chaos Realm could surpass him. There was the soul of a Chaos Realm expert hidden inside.

He had actually been completely unaware. The Lord of Slaughter murmured,

"What on earth does he want to do?"

Lin Moyu glanced at the Lord of Slaughter. "Are you sure you want to know?"

The Lord of Slaughter instinctively shook his head.

He was very curious, but he knew he couldn't bear this karma.

The more he knew, the faster he might die. Lin Moyu reached out and grabbed,

pulling the Remnant Soul out of the black robe, then returned the black robe to the Lord of Slaughter. The Lord of Slaughter watched the Remnant Soul struggling and screaming in the World-Burning Fire.

He shuddered. He knew very well that although the opponent was only a Remnant Soul,

if they wanted to kill him, it wouldn't be very difficult. The Remnant Soul in the black robe was identical to the one in the dagger.

They came from the same cultivator. Lin Moyu didn't even need to use the cause-seeking ring again. A moment later,

the Remnant Soul was completely refined, turning into ashes. Lin Moyu looked at the Lord of Slaughter.

"Where did you get these two items before? Take me there to have a look." The Lord of Slaughter dared not hesitate.

"Alright, please follow me—wait!"

Lin Moyu looked ahead. At this moment, they were in the Jianmu Great Spirit Domain of the Void World, and Emperor Jianmu clearly hadn't killed enough.

The Lord of Slaughter hurriedly said,

"I advised him, but he said he wanted to kill a few more."

Lin Moyu snorted coldly, "If you make another move, I will kill you!"

His voice turned into thunder,

crashing down upon Emperor Jianmu. Emperor Jianmu screamed in the thunder, countless cracks appearing on his body.

Chapter 4301: The Hidden Area

His aura instantly withered. Filled with terror, he fled the Jianmu Great Spirit Domain.

His whereabouts became unknown. Lin Moyu snorted coldly, "Ungrateful fool!"

The Lord of Slaughter didn't dare to make a sound beside him. Clearly, Lin Moyu was in a bad mood right now, so it was better for him to behave himself.

The Lord of Slaughter led Lin Moyu, flying rapidly through the Void World. Along the way, he told Lin Moyu about what happened back then. At that time, he had not been revived for long.

To hide his identity, he suppressed his power and split off a shred of his soul to fall into a deep sleep.

This ultimately created the illusion that he was still dead. In the Land of Origin, there were Domain rules blocking the space between the Great Daos.

As long as the disguise was good enough, it was easy to deceive other Eternal Existences. That was exactly what the Lord of Slaughter did.

He successfully deceived the Human Emperor. After reviving, the Lord of Slaughter disguised his identity and slowly recovered,

attempting to return to his peak. During this process, he learned about some of the Human Emperor's plans.

Thus, he created another clone and became World Lord Musha, while his main body…

obtained an opportunity in an accident and entered a special area, where he got the Mo Lan dagger and the Dao-Concealing Black Robe.

The Dao-Concealing Black Robe allowed him to evade Great Dao detection and even bypass some Domain rules, enabling him to accomplish many things silently.

It was also with the help of this Dao-Concealing Black Robe that the Lord of Slaughter returned to the Great Dao without alerting anyone,

stepping into the Eternal stage once more. Furthermore, the Mo Lan dagger was laced with a curse; once stabbed,

both the soul and physical body would be contaminated. Even an Eternal Existence would be injured and find it difficult to recover for many years.

For existences below the Eternal stage, as long as they were nicked by this dagger, their Dao foundation would certainly be heavily damaged,

ranging from a drastic drop in cultivation at best, to direct death at worst. Both the Mo Lan dagger and the Dao-Concealing Black Robe were low-grade Chaos Realm magic treasures.

To cultivators within the Domain, these were incomparably powerful supreme treasures. With them in hand,

only then did the Lord of Slaughter have the confidence to overthrow the Human Emperor. And indeed, he succeeded. He had endured for countless years,

even going so far as to send the clone he raised himself before the Human Emperor to lower his guard. Finally, at the moment of the Human Emperor's transcendence,

he dealt the Human Emperor a Fatal Strike. Although the Human Emperor didn't die, he was contaminated by the Mo Lan dagger.

Attempting to transcend again would face numerous difficulties, not to mention that the Lord of Slaughter was watching from the shadows. The Human Emperor's future was bleak.

Lin Moyu was not interested in the grievances between the Lord of Slaughter and the Human Emperor. This was someone else's personal vendetta, and he was too lazy to gossip about it.

He didn't ask further. The Lord of Slaughter led Lin Moyu to an empty space in the void, which was very far from every Great Spirit Domain.

It belonged to the Vacuum Zone, where not even a single Void Beast could be found. Lin Moyu felt the ancientness of this place.

This indicated that no one had visited this area for a very long time. Sweeping his gaze across, with his identity as the Domain Lord,

he did not discover any abnormalities here. The Lord of Slaughter said,

"Back then, it was right here"

"that I entered that special area. However, I came back to look for it later and found nothing."

"But I have a feeling that it should still be here and hasn't left."

The feeling of an Eternal Existence was highly unlikely to be wrong. Lin Moyu chose to believe him.

Unable to sense it, and seeing nothing with his eyes, he mobilized the Domain rules.

He wove them into a dense net in this area, sweeping through like a carpet search, but still found nothing.

"Nothing," Lin Moyu muttered to himself. There were only two possibilities for this situation.

One was that there was truly nothing here, and the other was that the opponent's hiding methods surpassed his own, allowing them to shield themselves from his detection.

The Lord of Slaughter whispered,

"Could it be that it is no longer here? My feeling might not be accurate either."

Lin Moyu smiled and said,

"It's fine. You can go back first."

"Just pretend today's events never happened and go about your business." Naturally, the Lord of Slaughter didn't dare to refuse.

Although he was very curious and wanted to know what other methods Lin Moyu had, since Lin Moyu had already said so,

he could only leave. Just as he was about to go, Lin Moyu suddenly spoke up again.

"I don't care what conflict you have with the Human Emperor. Take it easy when you fight, and don't involve too many innocent people."

The Lord of Slaughter shuddered. "I understand." He vanished into the darkness and departed.

He quickly left the Void World and returned to the Real World. With a thought, Lin Moyu called out,

"Wuhun!"

With a soft call, the Soulless Beast arrived.

"Master, please give your command." Lin Moyu said,

"Seal off this area and don't let anyone get close." "Yes!"

The Soulless Beast complied, manipulating the rules to seal off the area. Lin Moyu muttered to himself,

"It seems I still have to use the brute-force method." With a thought, trillions of Undead Servants appeared in the void.

They scattered in all directions, launching a search in the truest sense. During the search of the Undead Servants, as long as there was even the slightest abnormality in this area,

even if it were just a single strand of hair, it would be discovered. Lin Moyu attached great importance to this.

The abnormality here might be related to the attack on the Tianxu Land at the beginning of the formation of the Five-World Domain. It was highly likely not an accident,

but a scheme by other Sovereigns. The methods of competition between Sovereigns were extremely sophisticated, and they were all willing to set up elaborate schemes,

even treating all living beings in the Domain as playthings. If he wasn't careful, he might very well fall into a Sovereign's trap,

and not even know how he died. Furthermore, the Five-World Domain now belonged to him.

How could Lin Moyu accept something occurring within his own Domain that was beyond his control? He had to investigate it thoroughly.

This area was vast. Lin Moyu dispatched all of his Undead Servants, a total of two trillion.

It would also take a significant amount of time. The Undead Servants transformed into hundred-thousand-meter giants one after another, allowing them to cover a wider area

and search more efficiently, inch by inch, without leaving any corner untouched.

The searched space continued to expand. After searching like this for over a month, they still found nothing.

The entire search range had expanded to a radius of a hundred billion kilometers, almost touching the nearest Great Spirit Domain. Yet, it was precisely because of this

that Lin Moyu felt something was even more amiss. A Vacuum Zone was not truly empty; there should also be virtual and real secret realms,

or some special things existing. Under the interweaving and collision of the Great Daos, some unusual changes should naturally occur.

Although they might be extremely scarce, they shouldn't be completely non-existent. Yet, that was exactly the case here.

There was absolutely nothing here; it was a true vacuum. This was the anomaly.

Lin Moyu had the Undead Servants shrink in size and search carefully once more, which took another two months.
