Chapter 3319

The ultimate goal of this assessment was to have Lin Moyu do something; this matter was of great importance, and they needed to discuss it.

Whether or not to entrust it to Lin Moyu, or to wait for another opportunity and find someone else.

Someone voiced their opinion, "I think it should be him. It's not like we haven't tried others."

"After testing, they could only be considered barely qualified. I have no objections; at the very least, his level of array mastery already surpasses the others."

"The only problem is that his cultivation is insufficient, but the issue of insufficient cultivation can be compensated for by external means."

"Moreover, having too high a cultivation level there would actually be counterproductive." After some discussion, the five of them quickly reached a decision.

The eleven arrays were originally one entity. Lin Moyu used the ten arrays he had repaired as a catalyst, hooked the eleventh array, and forcibly pulled it out from another layer of space. The array became complete and immediately began to operate. Boom!

The void shattered.

Lin Moyu's vision blurred, and he found himself in another room. Five people were looking at him with smiles. One of them was the old man who had guided him earlier. The guiding elder smiled and said, "Let me introduce ourselves. We are Elders of the Central Domain Divine Alliance. You may call me Third Elder."

The other four were also Elders of the Central Domain Divine Alliance, the people who truly held real power.

At least in the area of Wangdong Realm, they were the ones in charge. The person who guided him was the Third Elder. Additionally, there were the Second Elder, Fourth Elder, Seventh Elder, and Ninth Elder.

Wangdong Realm belonged to the eastern part of the Central Domain, and the Central Domain Divine Alliance had established an Eastern Branch in Wangdong Realm.

It was jointly managed by nine Elders, and these nine Elders were managed by an Eastern Alliance Leader, who was currently in seclusion.

The other Elders also had matters to attend to, so the affairs of the Eastern Branch were managed by these five. There was no hierarchy among the five; they were just ordered by age, and everyone was on equal footing.

Lin Moyu greeted them one by one and asked, "Seniors, has this junior passed the assessment?"

The Third Elder said, "The assessment has naturally been passed, and it is no problem for Young Friend Lin to join the Central Domain Divine Alliance. However, this old man has a question: why do you want to join the Central Domain Divine Alliance?"

Lin Moyu replied, "This junior needs to go to the East Pole."

Once he said this, the five Elders understood. With Lin Moyu's cultivation, going to the Four Poles would take an incredibly long time if he relied on flying; he could only use the Cross-Domain Array. If he wanted to use the Cross-Domain Array, he had to join the Central Domain Divine Alliance.

The Third Elder narrowed his eyes slightly. "Young Friend Lin, do you have business in the East Pole?"

Lin Moyu said, "I am also handling a matter for a Senior, but this junior has sworn an oath not to disclose what it is."

The Third Elder looked at Lin Moyu. "This is your privacy, Young Friend Lin. We really shouldn't pry, but unfortunately, the Cross-Domain Array has encountered some problems this time."

Lin Moyu's heart skipped a beat. The Cross-Domain Array had problems? Did that mean he couldn't use it?

If he couldn't use it, he would have to change his route. He would have to go somewhere else first and wait for the Cross-Domain Array to be restored, but what if it couldn't be restored?

Moreover, Lin Moyu felt that things weren't that simple. Judging from the attitude of these Elders and his previous assessment, it seemed like there was something waiting for him. Otherwise, why would five Elders need to show up just for him joining the Central Domain Divine Alliance?

Lin Moyu couldn't help but ask, "May I ask what the problem is?"

The Third Elder said, "This is also something we old guys need to ask for your help with, but before we talk about it, we must trouble Young Friend Lin to take an oath. You must not disclose a single word of what you hear today to the outside world."

Lin Moyu understood immediately that the Cross-Domain Array had definitely encountered trouble, and it was no small matter. If he didn't agree to take the oath, he probably wouldn't be able to use the Cross-Domain Array for a long time.

This "short time" could be millions or even tens of millions of years. After all, for Perfection-level Experts like them, the concept of time was extremely diluted. Lin Moyu immediately replied, "Very well!"

The Third Elder took out a round stone. "This is a Chaos Rule Stone. Please inject your soul into it and swear by your Dao."

Lin Moyu complied. The other party did not make excessive demands, only asked for confidentiality, which he could agree to.

After the oath was taken, the Chaos Rule Stone dissolved into dust amidst a faint glow, and thunder echoed in the void. The oath was established.

The Third Elder then said, "The Cross-Domain Array has two ends. One end is in Lindong City, and the end in the East Pole is hidden in a crevice of space. Now, the Cross-Domain Array located at the East Pole has encountered some problems. We do not know the specific problem; we only know that it has deviated from its position and disappeared into the void."

"We have conducted tests here and roughly know that the Cross-Domain Array at the East Pole must be damaged, but the extent of the damage is unknown. Furthermore, its specific location cannot be determined for the time being. Many cultivators from the Central Domain have gone to the East Pole and cannot return now. We hope that after you go there, you can find the Cross-Domain Array and repair it."

Lin Moyu finally understood that the assessment conducted on him earlier was just to check his level of array mastery. His level of array mastery satisfied them, so they hoped he could go over, find the Cross-Domain Array, and repair it.

It was not that there were no powerful array masters in the Central Domain, but those powerful and qualified array masters were almost all Perfection-level Experts. They couldn't go over, and among the cultivators at the Chaos Realm Great Success or Small Success, their level of array mastery seemed insufficient.

Lin Moyu thought for a moment. "I hope to have more specific information." This counted as an agreement. He couldn't refuse anyway, as he did indeed need to go there.

The Elders showed gentle smiles. "That is only natural!"

Chapter 4346: Going to be a Repairman

The Cross-Domain Array could currently still be used, but one could only go and not return. The array deployed at the East Pole end was currently in a state of lost contact; they only knew the general situation: it was damaged and its position had shifted.

If he teleported over, he would only be teleported to the vicinity, and the positioning would not be very accurate. Once he went there, he had to repair the Cross-Domain Array at the East Pole, otherwise, he wouldn't be able to teleport back; he would have to fly back.

The issue with the Cross-Domain Array had been occurring for tens of thousands of years. During these tens of thousands of years, many cultivators could only fly back, and many encountered danger halfway—either getting injured or perishing. The Central Domain Divine Alliance had been looking for a solution.

It was just that Perfection-level Experts couldn't go over, and for those at the Chaos Realm Small Success or Great Success, their level of array mastery was not sufficient to repair the Cross-Domain Array.

This time, they had finally found Lin Moyu, so they naturally had to hold onto him firmly. The Third Elder smiled, "Actually, when you first arrived in Wangdong Realm, we noticed you. You have a very rich aura of runes on you, which shows that you often deal with rune arrays."

Lin Moyu was a bit curious. "The Chaos is so vast, and there are countless experts. Even the human race has countless array masters, why can't you find anyone?"

The Third Elder shook his head. "It's not as simple as you think. Although there are many array masters, most of them are half-baked. Let's put it this way: the arrays of Chaos Creatures come from bloodline inheritance; they have a ceiling, and this ceiling is not high."

"The array runes of cultivators are obtained through their own comprehension, but they also have a ceiling, only this ceiling is relatively high, and there is a chance to break through the ceiling. Among our human race, there are many array masters, but there are not many top-tier ones. Most are just those second or third-rate array masters. Occasionally, there is a first-rate one, but they have basically already reached the Perfection-level. After all, you also understand that the level of array mastery is often commensurate with the level of cultivation."

Lin Moyu nodded. He naturally understood this principle, and what the Third Elder said was the most normal situation.

The Third Elder continued, "In the Chaos, there is a special race called the Yantian. It is said that the Yantian race was born from a Chaos Rune and is naturally proficient in array runes. Any one of their clansmen is a first-rate array master. If it is an outstanding clansman, they are even a top-tier array master. They do have the ability to repair the Cross-Domain Array."

"But it is a pity that they belong to the West Pole. If it were an ordinary array, asking them to repair it wouldn't be a problem. But the Cross-Domain Array is different. The Cross-Domain Array is extremely important; naturally, we cannot find people from outside the Central Domain to repair it. We can only find people within the Central Domain. Although the Central Domain is vast, there are not many suitable candidates. At least in these tens of thousands of years, we haven't been able to find one that is foolproof. There are a few candidates who are barely suitable; if we drag it on for another few tens of thousands of years, we might let them go and try."

The Third Elder said, "After all, that is in the East Pole. When the Cross-Domain Array was deployed, a Great Venerable took action, which deceived some experts in the East Pole, but the Great Venerable will not easily take action again. Once the Cross-Domain Array is exposed, when we restart the war with the East Pole, the Cross-Domain Array may become our constraint. Therefore, this repair must be foolproof and not alert the people in the East Pole."

Lin Moyu understood this principle. In fact, it was not just the Central Domain that had deployed a Cross-Domain Array; the East Pole also had a Cross-Domain Array deployed in the Central Domain. Both sides were well aware of this, but they just didn't know the specific location of the other side's array. If they knew, they could take advantage of it.

Lin Moyu said, "Fine, I will try my best."

The Third Elder said, "Don't force yourself. If it really doesn't work, just retreat and look for another opportunity."

A warship set off from Wangdong Realm towards Lindong City. The warship was extremely fast and only needed ten days to fly to Lindong City.

The specific location: Lindong City was a heavily fortified military city hidden in the Chaos; it was usually hidden and never revealed. No one knew its specific location. The Cross-Domain Array was deployed in Lindong City. To go to Lindong City, one could only take a warship specially made by the Central Domain Divine Alliance.

The warship accelerated continuously, quickly breaking through the Chaos and rushing into a crevice of space. Traveling through the crevice of space was not only fast but also wouldn't be tracked.

The disadvantage was that it was difficult to locate, not knowing how far it had flown or in which direction it was flying. But these problems were nothing to this specially made warship. This warship didn't go anywhere else; it only traveled between Wangdong Realm and Lindong City. It had clear coordinate guidance and would never fly incorrectly. Moreover, it could sail fully automatically and didn't need anyone to manage it.

The Third Elder set up a tea table and invited Lin Moyu to have tea together. "It will take ten days to fly. Let's chat, Young Friend Lin, to pass the time."

Lin Moyu smiled and sat down. The tea set on the tea table was all magical treasures, automatically brewing tea without the need for the Third Elder's intervention.

The Third Elder handed a storage ring to Lin Moyu. "The materials needed to repair the array are here. They should be enough. Young Friend Lin, you can use them as you see fit; as long as you can repair the array, the extra materials do not need to be returned. Consider it a reward for Fellow Daoist Lin."

Lin Moyu took the ring and checked it. It was full of array materials, very complete, and all had been refined.
