Chapter 3325

Chapter 4354: The Great Venerable's Scheming?

The Cross-Domain Array was formidable.

Ordinary array discs couldn't store it at all, so Lin Moyu could only attempt it bit by bit, utilizing his understanding of the Dao of Arrays.

While trying to find a way to store the array, Lin Moyu observed it.

The array was severely damaged. The Cross-Domain Array was not a runic array; it contained a vast amount of precious materials.

This fragment of the array was the same, but now these materials were damaged, and much of their essence had been lost.

Some materials were already ruined. Lin Moyu looked at the leader of the East Pole Dragon Pythons and said, "Speak."

"How did you discover this array?" This East Pole Dragon Python leader, a Chaos Realm Great Success, had now become a Revenant.

He crawled obediently before Lin Moyu, completely devoid of his earlier temper, facing Lin Moyu's questions.

He told him everything he knew without reservation. His name was Dong Guangsan.

He was a leader of a small tribe among the East Pole Dragon Pythons. When he heard the word "tribe," Lin Moyu was initially confused.

Later, after Dong Xuansan's explanation, he understood the structure of the East Pole Dragon Python clan. There were eight Perfection-level Experts among the East Pole Dragon Pythons.

With each Perfection-level Expert as the core, they formed eight major tribes, which were named after Heaven, Earth, Xuan, Huang, Universe, Cosmos, Flood, and Desolation.

Under the major tribes ruled by each Perfection-level Expert were many smaller tribes, each ruled by a Chaos Realm Great Success.

Dong Xuansan belonged to the third small tribe of the Xuan Dragon Python major tribe. Within the Xuan Dragon Python major tribe, there were a total of twelve Great Success experts like him.

According to Dong Xuansan, the East Pole Dragon Pythons were also a large clan.

Although not as powerful as the Divine Phoenix Clan, they could still be considered a behemoth, at least to Lin Moyu.

Afterward, Dong Xuansan recounted what had happened this time. The East Pole Dragon Pythons loved to travel through layers of space, searching for treasures and materials in the cracks of space.

Coupled with refining and absorbing them, this was their path of evolution. This time, they discovered an array.

This array was unimaginably massive, unlike anything they had ever seen, but it seemed to have suffered damage and was already falling apart.

Their entire major tribe mobilized, wanting to bring the array back. Although the array was collapsing, it contained many materials that could be refined and absorbed. If they could refine all the materials in this array, they could produce at least ten more Chaos Realm Great Success clansmen. Thus, under the leadership of their leader, the Xuan Dragon Python, they launched an attack on the array.

The array was strong, but their attacks descended through the void, bypassing the array's defenses.

Their attacks accelerated the array's collapse. The array, which might have barely been able to maintain itself, lasted less than a hundred years under the attacks of the East Pole Dragon Python clan.

It shattered completely, and when the array collapsed, a violent explosion occurred.

The destructive power of the explosion was astonishing, piercing through the void. At that time, many East Pole Dragon Pythons were killed in the explosion, and even their great leader, the Xuan Dragon Python ancestor, a Chaos Realm Perfection, was injured.

In the explosion, the array shattered into five pieces. The Xuan Dragon Python ancestor ordered all members of their tribe to search for these fragments.

He went to recover from his injuries, while Dong Xuansan took his subordinates and tracked them for tens of thousands of years.

They finally found one fragment, the smallest of the five. While they were dragging the fragment away, they were refining and absorbing the materials inside. The array was too powerful; even they could not carry it through space.

They could only fly slowly through the cracks in space, and as a result, they encountered Lin Moyu. Lin Moyu was now certain that the array they had encountered was the Cross-Domain Array.

The Cross-Domain Array was an array designed by a Great Venerable personally. The entire array was divided into two parts, with one part placed in the Central Domain.

The other part was placed in the East Pole. An array designed by a Great Venerable, even if not necessarily set up by the Great Venerable's own hands, was not something just anyone could shake. Lin Moyu had seen the Cross-Domain Array and had personally experienced it.

He was very clear that even if the entire East Pole Dragon Python clan mobilized, it would be no more than eight Perfection-level Experts. Let alone eight, even eight hundred wouldn't be able to shake the Cross-Domain Array. According to Dong Xuansan, when they discovered the Cross-Domain Array, it had already suffered significant damage. They merely acted as a catalyst, causing the Cross-Domain Array to collapse faster. Even so, it took a full hundred years to accomplish, and when the Cross-Domain Array collapsed, it also injured the Xuan Dragon Python.

It killed a large number of East Pole Dragon Pythons, so Lin Moyu was one hundred percent certain that someone else had destroyed the Cross-Domain Array.

Who was that person? There was only one answer: A Great Venerable!

As for whether it was a Great Venerable from the East Pole, it was hard to say. It was highly likely to be a Great Venerable from the East Pole, but it could not be ruled out that another Great Venerable had snuck in.

They did this with the intention of inciting conflict between the East Pole and the Central Domain. Such things were quite normal in Lin Moyu's view.

The schemes and conflicts between Great Venerables stopped at nothing. It was just that the Cross-Domain Array was hidden very well.

How could it have been found? Suddenly, Lin Moyu was slightly stunned as he thought of another possibility.

He muttered to himself, "Could this matter be the work of those two guys?" He thought of the Green Robe and the White Robe.

One of these two should be a Great Venerable from the Central Domain. If they had deliberately destroyed the Cross-Domain Array to stir up some trouble, such as scheming to make him come over, it wasn't impossible. Lin Moyu couldn't help but think this way.

Great Venerables were too calculating. If he didn't think more deeply, it was very likely that he would be sold by someone and still be counting money for them.

As of now, he seemed to have no choice. He had to do what he had promised.

Moreover, since he had already come here, he also had to consider how to go back. Flying for ten thousand years to cross the Desolate Scar was impossible. Not to mention the danger, it was also a waste of time.

"Search, then. For now, there seems to be no other way. Let me see what you guys are actually scheming." Xiao Peng listened to Lin Moyu's muttering and was a bit confused.

He didn't understand the meaning behind Lin Moyu's words. Lin Moyu said to Dong Xuansan, "Find a way."

"Trick all your clansmen into coming here." The Revenant Dong Xuansan immediately took orders. Lin Moyu instructed him to trick only a few at first.

"Come in groups. As for later, the numbers can be gradually increased."

The East Pole Dragon Pythons had methods of contacting each other. Dong Xuansan used the Cross-Domain Array as bait to attract his clansmen, claiming that he had found a fragment.

"But I can't take it away; I need help from my clansmen." Several Chaos Realm Great Success experts similar to him, following the orders of the ancestor Xuan Dragon Python, were searching everywhere for the Cross-Domain Array fragments. If they found one, it would be a great merit.

Moreover, they all had selfish motives; after finding one, besides bringing it back, they could secretly refine some of it.

Anyway, no one would notice. Now that they heard Dong Xuansan's distress signal, they would naturally come.

The East Pole Dragon Pythons could travel through space and moved extremely quickly. In just over ten days, people arrived.

Unfortunately, waiting for them were Lin Moyu's Soul-Severing Needle and Dong Xuansan's sharp claws.

Lin Moyu had long since set up the Chaotic Space Array, coupled with the Wings of Chaos. Once they came, they couldn't hope to escape, and they couldn't even send out a message. Dong Xuansan and his affiliated clansmen…

Chapter 4355: Ancestor, Wake Up Quickly

…had now all become Lin Moyu's subordinates, showing no mercy when attacking their own kin. Lin Moyu harvested the East Pole Dragon Pythons in waves.

He strengthened his own power. At the same time, he finished refining a special array disc and finally succeeded in storing this fragment of the Cross-Domain Array.

The Revenant army under Lin Moyu was rapidly growing. Under the ancestor Xuan Dragon Python, there were Chaos Realm Great Success experts like Dong Xuansan, totaling twelve, each with over a hundred clansmen under them. Adding everything together, the branch under the ancestor Xuan Dragon Python numbered about 1,500. When the Cross-Domain Array exploded, it killed over 300 people.

Now there were about 1,200 left. At that time, Dong Xuansan and his men were relatively close, so he suffered heavy losses.

He only had a few dozen people left under him. The remaining people were tricked into coming over in groups.

And then became Lin Moyu's subordinates. In just over a year, Lin Moyu had gathered nine Chaos Realm Great Success experts like Dong Xuansan, along with all their subordinates, totaling nearly a thousand. This was a force that was not too weak.

At least before encountering a Perfection-level Expert, they could walk sideways. During this year or so, Lin Moyu didn't go anywhere, just staying here to strengthen his own power. He was very clear.

If he continued to search for the Cross-Domain Array, he would very likely encounter the Perfection-level Expert Xuan Dragon Python. Even if he wasn't very powerful among Perfection-level Experts, he was still a Perfection-level Expert, far beyond what Lin Moyu could deal with. But if he had enough Great Success experts under him and made full preparations, combined with the Soul-Severing Needle, it wasn't impossible.

It was just that dealing with a Perfection-level Expert was somewhat counterproductive because they possessed a Domain, so he couldn't make them into Revenants.

It wasn't that he couldn't, but that he shouldn't do so. Domain rebirth would trigger large-scale changes in the Chaos Rules.

It would attract the attention of the Dao, but for the sake of the Cross-Domain Array, he had to take the initiative to deal with a Perfection-level Expert.

With nine Great Success experts, he had at least a 50% chance of success. Coupled with the fact that Xuan Dragon Python's injuries might not have healed yet, the chance of success would increase by another 10%. Plus the joint sneak attack of these nine, the chance would increase by another 10%.

Thus, he had at least a 70% chance of success. A 70% chance of success!

It was already worth a try! Lin Moyu calculated in his heart. There were still three Chaos Great Success experts who hadn't appeared.

According to Dong Xuansan, they must have already received the news. It was possible that their three branches had already discovered the Cross-Domain Array.

That was why they didn't respond to his summons. Everyone wanted to obtain the benefits for themselves; how many people were willing to share with others?

Since they wouldn't come, Lin Moyu excluded them. Next, he needed to choose a good place.

To scheme against the Perfection-level Expert Xuan Dragon Python. Ever since Xuan Dragon Python was injured by the Cross-Domain Array, he hadn't appeared again.

He was healing his injuries. Coincidentally, the place where he was healing was known by someone, and that person happened to have become Lin Moyu's Revenant.

A sharp light flashed in Lin Moyu's eyes. "Since that's the case, I'll take the initiative to send you to your grave."

He began to set up an array—or, to be precise, to modify an array. He wanted to modify the Chaotic Space Array.

He wanted to increase its attack power, making the Chaotic Space Array not only able to trap enemies but also kill them.

Lin Moyu was very clear that, with his current level of array mastery, it was unrealistic to rely on an array to kill a Perfection-level Expert.

But at least he could cause interference, and increasing the success rate by even a sliver was good.

At the very least, he couldn't let him escape, so the Chaotic Space Array, in terms of trapping enemies, needed to be strengthened a bit more. This modification of the array took a full hundred years.

Lin Moyu applied everything he had learned from his research on the Cross-Domain Array here. In his view, the Cross-Domain Array was the ultimate utilization of space and represented a Great Venerable's understanding of space. Even races like the East Pole Dragon Pythons, which possessed spatial talent, were inferior to a Great Venerable. A Great Venerable's understanding and mastery of Chaos Rules had reached an unimaginable level. Researching the Cross-Domain Array was of great benefit to his own Dao of Arrays. The hundred years was the time Lin Moyu spent laying out his plans, as well as the time he spent learning the Dao of Arrays.

Through the Cross-Domain Array, Lin Moyu caught a glimpse of a Great Venerable. He had once seen Great Venerable Tianzai's array.

He found that Great Venerable Tianzai's array was even more superior. The array of a Great Venerable gave Lin Moyu a lot of inspiration, helping him advance further in the Dao of Arrays.

After a hundred years, a brand-new Chaotic Space Array was set up. This array utilized the turbulence in the deepest parts of space even further.

Coupled with the Wings of Chaos, it made space even more chaotic. If the previous Chaotic Space Array and Wings of Chaos had stirred space into a paste, then now it was cutting that paste into countless fragments, with no connection between them.

The balance of space was completely shattered, with each piece acting as an independent entity—and a chaotic one at that.

Lin Moyu believed that unless the opponent had the ability of a Great Venerable, they wouldn't be able to travel through space. This also curbed the possibility of the opponent escaping.

After all, since he was about to deal with a Perfection-level Expert, Lin Moyu had to be cautious. The modified Chaotic Space Array also added attack capabilities.

It utilized spatial turbulence to attack from the gaps in the cut space. The attacks weren't very destructive, mainly serving for harassment.

Because of the existence of the Wings of Chaos, the countless sprites inside could utilize all kinds of powers, and their effects were similar to a Curse.
