Chapter 3534

He never explained things fully, and from this, he gained a great deal of benefit.

However, Emperor Pocang never coddled others; he was beaten half to death by Emperor Pocang and fled back to his own world.

He was dragged out by Emperor Pocang, and even his world was damaged; Emperor Pocang, with an overwhelmingly powerful posture, forced him to calculate the future, threatening him with death if he refused, and during this process, no one dared to intervene.

After all, Emperor Pocang did not have a good temper; he was even more irritable than the somewhat arrogant Supreme Expert Xunzhi.

Furthermore, Emperor Pocang did not believe a word Xunzhi said, so he directly used a soul-viewing technique to witness the future Xunzhi had calculated with his own eyes, and afterwards, he even forced Xunzhi to erase this memory.

Emperor Pocang acted without restraint; his fists were too big and too hard, causing others to dare not voice any dissatisfaction even if they had it.

Xunzhi was forced to erase this memory; he didn't even know what had happened.

Afterwards, no one dared to tell him about it, so it was hard to say whether he had suffered a loss or not. Emperor Pocang's voice was incomparably low.

"At that time, I brought out some extremely rare treasures. These treasures all came from the Wall of Heaven and Earth, and using them as markers, the future calculated would basically be error-free."

Lin Moyu asked, "What was the future you saw?" Emperor Pocang replied, "The destruction of heaven and earth."

"All worlds will shatter, but within the shattering, there is Rebirth. However, this Rebirth is the final radiance."

"It is a flash in the pan. After the Rebirth, there will be an even more violent Great Destruction. Heaven and earth have cycles, and the Great Tribulation is the cycle of heaven and earth."

"In cycle after cycle of the Great Tribulation, heaven and earth will head toward extinction, which no one can prevent."

"This is not a rule of heaven and earth, but a destiny outside of heaven and earth. We can prolong the time until the destruction of heaven and earth, but we cannot change the final result."

"At that time, I saw this result and knew that I had to reach the peak to avoid the true Great Destruction."

Thunder rolled in Lin Moyu's heart. Great Destruction. Yes, there are cycles within heaven and earth, but what about outside of heaven and earth?

He whispered, "Now, all other worlds have been destroyed, leaving only this one. Is this the world you saw being reborn from the destruction?"

"And it is also a world in its final flash of brilliance." Emperor Pocang said, "I pondered this question back then. I campaigned across various worlds, collecting the Tianchu Technique and searching for the roots of heaven and earth."

"Attempting to explore the Wall of Heaven and Earth. After countless years of searching, I finally obtained some answers."

"Every long period of time, all worlds undergo a Great Destruction and a Great Cycle."

Chapter 4675: It seems my path was not wrong

What Emperor Pocang said was earth-shattering and deafening.

If anyone else heard it, they wouldn't believe it and would only think he was joking, but Lin Moyu believed him, knowing he understood heaven and earth.

He also knew about the situation of the Life Forbidden Zone; the power within the Life Forbidden Zone was the purest, most extreme power of destruction.

He had thought about it at the time: the existence of worlds within the Life Forbidden Zone was an inexplicable state.

If one day the power of the Life Forbidden Zone erupted, would it destroy all worlds, leaving nothing behind?

Any remnants of heaven and earth would be a joke at that time. Now it seemed this wasn't impossible; it was already happening.

As Emperor Pocang spoke, he looked at Lin Moyu. "You don't seem surprised." Lin Moyu replied, "I won't hide it from you, Emperor."

"I have had some dealings with the Life Forbidden Zone within heaven and earth before and felt the powerful power of destruction contained within the Life Forbidden Zone."

"If, as you said, Emperor, this power of destruction were to erupt, it could indeed annihilate all worlds."

"However, I also don't quite understand why it must be this way." Emperor Pocang's eyes held a thoughtful look.

"As to why it must be this way, I cannot say for sure, but I have some speculations that you might want to hear, Fellow Daoist Lin."

Lin Moyu nodded. "I am all ears." Emperor Pocang had studied heaven and earth for countless years; his insights were far beyond what Lin Moyu could compare to.

He was different from the hongmeng gem; the hongmeng gem only observed and didn't think much for itself.

But Emperor Pocang didn't just observe; he also thought. As the strongest existence between heaven and earth, the height at which he stood determined that the things he pondered were far beyond what others could compare to.

"I pondered: what is the use of heaven and earth? What is the significance of the existence of the Life Forbidden Zone and the Wall of Heaven and Earth?"

"If the Great Destruction truly exists, then what comes after the Great Destruction? Based on this, I have a few speculations."

"First, the existence of the Great Destruction is for the sake of Rebirth. The Great Destruction cleanses everything."

"It turns everything into nothingness, tears everything down, and starts over. The Life Forbidden Zone contains the power of destruction, so the Great Destruction must be led by it."

"The Wall of Heaven and Earth contains boundless vitality, spiritual objects, and precious materials."

"It can determine the life and death of heaven and earth, and Rebirth is led by it. With the combination of life and death, a gigantic cycle belonging to heaven and earth is formed."

"Every period of time, a cycle occurs, and its purpose is to cultivate an existence that can step onto the peak."

"From the large to the small, if this matter is placed at the level of heaven and earth, it is the same. Heaven and earth have the Great Tribulation, cycle after cycle of the Great Tribulation."

"If no Supreme Expert appears, the world will shatter in the cycle. If one becomes a Supreme Expert, then the world can significantly prolong its existence. Heaven and earth nurture a Supreme Expert, and the Supreme Expert then rushes out of the Life Forbidden Zone to step onto the true peak."

After Emperor Pocang finished speaking about his speculations, Lin Moyu put himself in that position while listening.

He realized that if it were him, nine times out of ten, he would arrive at similar answers.

There might be differences, but they wouldn't be too large. Lin Moyu asked, "Then have you ever thought about what would happen after someone is able to rush out of the Life Forbidden Zone and step onto the true peak?" Emperor Pocang replied, "I have thought about it."

"This secret is hidden within the Life Forbidden Zone and the Wall of Heaven and Earth. Once successful, one should be able to gather the powers of life and death and truly achieve immortality."

Lin Moyu felt a slight shock in his heart. The powers of life and death—was that not his Undying Great Dao? This Great Dao that did not belong to heaven and earth seemed not so simple.

The Undying Great Dao was higher than heaven and earth, so its existence and the Life Forbidden Zone were at least on the same level. The power of the Great Destruction in the Life Forbidden Zone was so similar to the Power of Death.

It was just more overbearing and powerful. If the Wall of Heaven and Earth contained vitality, then it could correspond to the Power of Life. After all, it could determine whether a world could become a 'Life World'. Looking at it this way, the Undying Great Dao seemed even more extraordinary than he had imagined.

Thinking of the Life Forbidden Zone, Lin Moyu naturally thought of the System that had appeared in a fleeting glimpse. He realized that he had not seen the System by mere coincidence; the Life Forbidden Zone was incomparably vast, and that one glance of his, how could it be such a coincidence that he happened to see it?

It could only be said that the System had let him see it on purpose. The System was guiding him, making him enter the Life Forbidden Zone.

Lin Moyu suddenly understood something. Just like before, when the System left the Soul Void, it was actually a form of guidance. It was telling him that he needed to understand the void and reality. Now, it was guiding him in the same way.

Telling him that the path he needed to walk in the future was in the Life Forbidden Zone. The path within heaven and earth would reach an end sooner or later.

He would eventually have to step into the Life Forbidden Zone, but to step into the Life Forbidden Zone, he must make thorough preparations.

While Lin Moyu was thinking, Emperor Pocang did not disturb him. Many things indeed required each person to think for themselves; just listening to others would not resolve all questions.

After a moment, Lin Moyu spoke again, "Thank you, Emperor, for resolving my doubts. I understand much more now." Emperor Pocang chuckled.

"As long as it is useful, that is good. Our goals are the same. Fellow Daoist Lin, you want to break through the Life Forbidden Zone."

"And I want to fulfill my last wish." Lin Moyu shook his head. "Not just that. According to my speculations, if I can truly reach the peak, then I will be able to control the time of heaven and earth. At that time, I will reverse time and space to resurrect you."

Emperor Pocang laughed loudly again. "That doesn't matter. Living is just like that, and dying is just like that."

Lin Moyu asked, "Back then, you saw the future Great Destruction, which is why you resolutely decided to rush into the Life Forbidden Zone. But given your strength and status back then, you could have been more accurate and thorough."

Emperor Pocang shook his head. "It was useless. No matter how much I prepared, it was in vain. What you said, Fellow Daoist Lin, is exactly what I am about to talk about."

"I have studied the Life Forbidden Zone for many years and have concluded that there are two key points to successfully entering the Life Forbidden Zone."

"First is the foundation; one needs an extremely solid foundation. The foundation is the basis for all living beings within our worlds. Without a foundation, everything else is out of the question."

"I was too impatient back then; my foundation was not solid enough. Later, when I wanted to make up for it, it became very difficult. Otherwise, I would have indeed had some chances."

"The second key point is that a Supreme Expert relies on heaven and earth. Apart from one's own power, the power of heaven and earth is equally important."

"Heaven and earth are like our avatars and arms; they are indispensable. Back then, my world was a Six-Wheel Great Tribulation World."

"I used all kinds of methods to strengthen it, but unfortunately, it was still a bit short of a Seven-Wheel Great Tribulation World. It was still a hair's breadth away."

"If I could have reached the level of a Seven-Wheel World, perhaps I would have had a chance." Lin Moyu asked, "At that time, there were quite a few worlds above the Seven-Wheel level. Why didn't you try to refine one?"

Emperor Pocang smiled. "How do you know that I didn't try to refine one?"

"In fact, I tried, but they all ended in failure. The reason was that my world was too weak."

"It could not withstand the power of a Seven-Wheel World. If I had forcibly refined it, my world would have shattered, and I would have fallen as well."

"So, Fellow Daoist Lin, you must remember: in which world you become a Supreme Expert basically determines your upper limit."

Lin Moyu thought to himself, 'It seems my path was not wrong.'

Chapter 4676: Dialogue

Through Emperor Pocang's words, Lin Moyu further confirmed that his path was not wrong. It was the correct choice not to try to become a Supreme Expert in the Chaos Ancient Wilderness.

The Chaos Ancient Wilderness was too weak. Although he didn't know exactly how many 'wheels' the Yushen World could become at the moment, it was at least stronger than the Chaos Ancient Wilderness. Lin Moyu was very confident about this. Moreover, the Yushen World was newly formed.

It had not yet experienced its first Heaven and Earth Life and Death Tribulation, so it had not fully taken shape and still had huge room for growth.

Before the first Great Tribulation arrived, he could still find ways to make the Yushen World stronger.

If he could surpass a Six-Wheel World and reach seven or above, Lin Moyu said, "As far as I know, no one has ever been able to become a Supreme Expert within a Seven-Wheel World."

Emperor Pocang smiled. "Indeed."

"Do you know why, Fellow Daoist Lin?" Lin Moyu replied, "Because for a Seven-Wheel World and above, the rules are too strict, and the world itself is powerful. The difficulty of becoming a Supreme Expert within them becomes extremely astonishing, which leads to no one succeeding."

"But if one were to succeed, I imagine that Supreme Expert would be extremely powerful." Emperor Pocang affirmed Lin Moyu's words. "You are right, Fellow Daoist Lin."

"I once tried to refine a Seven-Wheel World. Its power of heaven and earth was indeed incomparably powerful, at least a hundred times stronger than a Six-Wheel World."

"If one says that one to six-wheel worlds are orderly improvements, then starting from a Seven-Wheel World, it is a leap-style improvement. That kind of improvement is like the difference between a 'Death World' and a 'Life World'; they are fundamentally different."

"This is also the important reason why worlds above the Seven-Wheel level have never produced a Supreme Expert among the countless living beings and cultivators within them."

"If one wants a Supreme Expert to appear in a Seven-Wheel World, in my eyes, there is only one method."

"That is to enter that world in advance and become a Supreme Expert when it has just become a 'Life World'."

Lin Moyu looked at Emperor Pocang. "Just like you." Emperor Pocang was slightly stunned.

He seemed surprised that Lin Moyu could know his origin; after all, this was his secret, and he had never told anyone.

However, he did not say much. On the contrary, his gaze toward Lin Moyu changed somewhat. He seemed to have more confidence in Lin Moyu.

Emperor Pocang said, "That's right, just like me. But one has to rely on luck. Back then, my luck was not good, and I failed to enter a Seven-Wheel World."

"Actually, I had the opportunity to choose back then, but I gave it up. I have made countless choices in my life."

"Only that one was the biggest mistake, which determined my future. But I had no choice."

"Even if I could do it all over again, it could only be like that. So, Fellow Daoist Lin, you must be cautious with every choice. In the information I gave you, there is a secret technique called 'Heaven Search'. I used it to find worlds back then. Unfortunately, every time this secret technique is used, it consumes and overdraws the soul and life. I reached my limit after using it three times back then and could not use it again."

"At that time, I could only choose to attain the Dao within heaven and earth." Lin Moyu already roughly understood the function of the 'Heaven Search' secret technique and was in no rush to ask for specifics.

He first threw out the question in his heart. "But now it is different from your time. Nowadays, all worlds have been destroyed. Even if I have this secret technique, I cannot find a suitable world."

Emperor Pocang shook his head.
