Chapter 3590.

Arriving at the same time as Yan Kuangsheng, Meng Anwen exclaimed, "Lin Moyu has truly returned."

"Meng Anwen, if you dare to lie to me, I'll chop you up!" Bai Yiyuan and Yan Kuangsheng's voices boomed.

Upon receiving the news, they were incredibly excited. Lin Moyu laughed and said, "Teacher Bai, Teacher Yan, it really is me. I've returned, so there's no need to chop anyone."

Reunited after a long time, Lin Moyu respectfully served tea and gave them a general account of his experiences over these years, omitting some minor details and not mentioning anything regarding Great Venerable Tianzai.

Some things didn't need them to know. The Small World had experienced a lot over these years.

Great Venerable Tianzai had actually started acting the moment Lin Moyu left; from that time on, time and space had already been in chaos. After that, Antares was the only existence to leave the Small World.

The reason Antares was able to leave was actually because of Great Venerable Boyang; Antares had been arranged to enter by Great Venerable Boyang. In the end, it was also Great Venerable Boyang who secretly took him away. The reason Great Venerable Boyang did this was because of the karmic connection formed between him and Lin Moyu.

And behind all of this was Venerable Tianming, who had secretly provided guidance back then. The one who first learned of Great Venerable Tianzai's layout was naturally Venerable Tianming, though Venerable Tianming could not say it explicitly and only hinted at it.

Fortunately, Great Venerable Boyang realized this as well. Antares had indeed helped Lin Moyu a lot.

After Great Venerable Tianzai took the Small World away, to keep them alive, he had provided some benefits to guide them onto the correct path of cultivation. But at the same time, he also restricted them, arranging so-called Extraterritorial Heavenly Demons to keep an eye on them.

They were consuming them. Over these years, the casualties in the Small World were not insignificant. Now that everything had passed, the road ahead was smooth.

Lin Moyu stayed in the Small World for over a month before leaving. Apart from Meng Anwen and the other two, no one knew he had returned.

"It's time to attend to serious business." Lin Moyu's tone was indifferent. Since returning from the Small World, he felt relaxed, as if many burdens had been lifted.

The hongmeng gem said, "Master, for that Small World, you could have just gone with a clone."

Lin Moyu shook his head and chuckled, "You don't understand."

The hongmeng gem said, "Those Supreme Experts later severed their karma and their ties to lower-level worlds."

Lin Moyu interrupted him, "That is why I say you don't understand. Everyone acts differently. I have my own thoughts and don't need to learn from anyone. Karma should be severed when it needs to be, and kept when it needs to be."

The height at which Lin Moyu now stood was different; there were no figures ahead on the path he walked.

From now on, others could only chase his back. The hongmeng gem was just an artifact spirit and truly didn't understand these things, but it was very obedient. Since Lin Moyu had said so, it wouldn't ask further.

"Let's go, let's go see that Parent-Child World."

The Nine Heavens Fate Technique was unleashed, forcibly altering the rules of the world. With a single step, he traversed hundreds of millions of miles, faster than any teleportation. In just a few steps, Lin Moyu had crossed a small portion of the Chaos and arrived at the spatial passage pointed out by Venerable Tianming.

In the void, a spatial passage only the size of a fist floated, appearing far too tiny. Even if someone passed by, they might not necessarily discover it.

The hongmeng gem said, "That's right, this is it. I can feel the unique aura of the Parent-Child World."

Before entering, Lin Moyu couldn't help but turn his head and take a look towards the deepest part of the Ancient Wilderness. "I always feel that the deepest part of the Ancient Wilderness is a bit strange. When I have time, I must go there again."

The hongmeng gem asked curiously, "What could be strange about it? If there were anything strange, I would definitely be able to see it."

Lin Moyu shook his head, "It's just a feeling. The Chaos Ancient Wilderness was the only world birthed from the embers of the world after the Great Destruction; it must have something special about it. That special aspect can only be in the deepest part of the Ancient Wilderness."

The hongmeng gem was even more confused, "Isn't it the only one? What about Master's Yushen World?"

Lin Moyu shook his head, "My Yushen World is different, it's not the same."

"How is it different?" The hongmeng gem still didn't quite understand, but Lin Moyu didn't answer and went straight into the spatial passage.

A strange aura washed over him, and Lin Moyu felt the world rules, which were still relatively intact.

The Nine Heavens Fate Technique was unleashed; Lin Moyu was like the master of the world, inspecting the realm.

Although this world was damaged, the world rules were still relatively complete. It could indeed support the existence of living beings, but the beings in this realm had also experienced the destruction of the world; they had either perished or undergone mutations.

They were completely different from before.

"You are right; they can no longer be considered normal living beings. Their form of existence is different. Compared to normal living beings, they are missing something," the hongmeng gem said.

"Therefore, Master, you can fully let go and act here."

Lin Moyu grunted in acknowledgment. "Indeed, I can let go; there is no need to worry about karma. There is no karma here."

These living beings were more like surviving malignant tumors, having become parasites of the world. They should have died and perished.

Chapter 4775: It's Been a While Since I Last Fought.

They should have transformed back into the power of the world to maintain the existence of the world's remains. Instead, they were still alive, and not just alive.

They were constantly devouring the power of the world. If the Parent World outside the Child World were not powerful enough to provide sufficient world power, the Child World would have long since collapsed.

Now, at the height Lin Moyu stood, a mere sweep of his gaze allowed him to discern the entire situation within the Child World.

The Child World had no world core; it was attached to the Parent World and existed by relying on the Parent World.

However, if one wanted to refine the world core of the Parent World, one had to first beat the Child World into a crippled state. This was the peculiarity of this Parent-Child World, determined by the world rules.

Of course, it wasn't impossible to change the world rules. If Lin Moyu wanted to forcibly alter the world rules, it wasn't impossible, but it would take a great deal of effort, and it would also provoke resistance from the Parent World, which would not be worth the gain.

The Parent World was at a very high level, and its rules were extremely strong. Lin Moyu did not want to forcibly change the rules.

Then he would act according to the rules: first cripple the Child World, beating it into ruins, then go to the Parent World.

Moreover, the path to the Parent World had already been found; it was right at the center of the Child World. Where the world core should have been, there was now the main passage connecting to the Parent World.

Besides this, the Child World had many other passages connecting to the Parent World. However, those passages were not stable, appearing and disappearing, so Lin Moyu did not consider them.

Being able to see the essence through the rules made Lin Moyu's actions much more convenient. There were no fancy or messy things in the Child World, making it extremely simple to handle.

Before Lin Moyu even made a move, a massive aura emerged from the side, and a black shadow dashed out, instantly arriving in front of Lin Moyu.

It revealed sharp fangs. Lin Moyu had already seen it; he waved his hand, and a massive force burst forth, sending it flying.

Subsequently, he reached out and grabbed; a large hand appeared in the void, suspending the black shadow in mid-air.

With a gentle squeeze, the black energy surrounding the black shadow shattered, revealing its true form.

It had a strange appearance, looking like a beast but possessing a face similar to a human. On its back, it carried a stone tablet.

It was unknown what material it was made of; it was mostly damaged, but some parts were still relatively intact. Lin Moyu could feel that the stone tablet likely contained some records.

This was a creature from the Child World with strength nearly reaching Chaos Realm Perfection. Those who could survive the Great Destruction were not weak.

However, they had all mutated. They could no longer be called living beings; it had no intelligence and would only instinctively attack outsiders.

Its soul was also deficient; its Soul Fire was not complete, and its physical body…

Because the world rules were not damaged, it resulted in a low degree of compatibility between its physical body and soul, at most eight percent.

It was as if the world rules had forcibly placed a defective soul into a similarly defective body, eventually forming such a creature.

Lin Moyu squeezed his hand, and with a bang, the monster was crushed.

The stone tablet it carried on its back came into Lin Moyu's hand. With a movement of his soul power, Lin Moyu instantly read all the information recorded within.

The information in the stone tablet was written and recorded using soul power, detailing the situation of this Child World.

Most people in the Child World did not know that there was a Parent World outside.

Only those who reached the Chaos Realm could enter the Parent World from the Child World. They called it ascension.

After ascension, although their realm remained unchanged, their strength would increase significantly.

As their realm continued to improve, the magnitude of their strength increase would become extremely exaggerated, far exceeding that of the Child World. Lin Moyu naturally understood.

The reason was that the world rules of the Parent World were stronger and had greater restrictions. At the same level, people in the Parent World were naturally stronger than those in the Child World.

At that time, as long as people in the Child World reached the Chaos Realm, they would all ascend and enter the Parent World.

But suddenly one day, countless experts in the Parent World collectively returned.

The stone tablet was damaged, and the information was recorded only up to here. Although incomplete, it allowed Lin Moyu to roughly deduce the process of the world experiencing the Great Destruction, but the information was not enough; Lin Moyu wanted to see more.

With a thought, the void twisted, and a massive number of Undead Spirit Soldiers rushed out like a tide, heading in all directions.

Lin Moyu sent out ten billion Undead Spirit Soldiers in one go. Here, he didn't need to have any qualms; he could just kill his way through.

In any case, this world had already undergone the Great Destruction, and within the rules, there was no longer any karma. How he wanted to kill was not a problem.

The Undead Spirit Soldiers soon made contact with the creatures of the Child World; without any nonsense, they directly attacked.

The abnormal creatures in the Child World were killed one by one.

At the same time, the Undead Spirit Soldiers were still collecting information, bringing back items that recorded information and handing them to Lin Moyu.

Lin Moyu examined them one by one, gaining an increasingly deeper understanding of this world.

The reason why a large number of people who had ascended from the Child World to the Parent World returned was because…

Among them, there were people cultivating the Path of Fate who sensed the occurrence of the Great Destruction. Only by returning to the Child World was there a glimmer of hope for survival.

So that group of people returned collectively. At that time, because too many people returned together, and these people were too powerful, exceeding the endurance limit of the Child World, a great war even broke out for this reason.

In order to let more people return from the Parent World, they took action and slaughtered almost all the people in the Child World.

In the end, those who could stay in the Child World were almost all those who had returned from the Parent World, while the people who originally lived in the Child World were almost completely slaughtered, with not even one in ten surviving.

Until later, when the Great Destruction occurred and the Parent World turned into ruins, the Child World, under the protection of the Parent World, did not completely collapse.

However, these people who had fled back were also not completely spared; a batch died, and a batch mutated, becoming what they were today.

After clarifying the matter, Lin Moyu chuckled, "The creatures in this world have a good habit of liking to record all kinds of big and small things."

"It saves me from having to figure it out myself," the hongmeng gem said.

"No wonder I saw deep resentment in the Child World. So the people in the Child World were all slaughtered, and those who remained were all those guys who had once ascended to the Parent World and then returned."

Lin Moyu said, "Yes, among those who returned, there is one strongest person."

"He is very close to the position of a Supreme Expert, named Ziyun Zhenjun. Previously, when I inspected the world using the rules, I already discovered that he is at the very center of the Child World. He has refined a portion of the Child World's rules. To beat the Child World into ruins, I must deal with him."

The hongmeng gem said, "With Master's strength, dealing with him should not be a problem. Now, Lin Moyu's physical body is extremely close to that of a Supreme Expert, and his soul is almost no different from a Supreme Expert's. Plus, with the Nine Heavens Fate Technique, unless facing a true Supreme Expert…"
