Dao Venerable Jiang Ruoxue had also left. She did not know if Lin Moyu was safe now, and could only hope that Lin Moyu would be blessed with good fortune.
After all, she was still counting on Lin Moyu obtaining the inheritance of Star Lord Luoxing and copying a version for her.
By this time, Lin Moyu had long since left the place of trouble. He had been traveling through the Chaos Zone without obstruction, and in just a few short days, he had already covered half the distance.
The Chaos Zone was about ten thousand kilometers wide and ten million kilometers long, almost spanning the entire border between the Hanshui Holy Land and the Wen Dao Sect.
It was the constant collision of the origin spirit veins of these two behemoths within this ten-million-kilometer range that had created such a special region.
In fact, on the Origin Continent, there was not just one Chaos Zone, but many.
They were not limited to the Southern Continent; Chaos Zones existed on all the other continents as well.
When evenly matched origin spirit veins collided and refused to give way, the prolonged struggle eventually formed these Chaos Zones.
These Chaos Zones, like ribbons, divided the Origin Continent into many irregular regions, making travel between them difficult.
Fortunately, there were also weak points in the Chaos Zones. Great beings had built cities, set up teleportation arrays, and constructed paths at these weak points.
There were also great beings who forged magical treasures that could traverse and travel back and forth through the various Chaos Zones.
Just like between the Hanshui Holy Land and the Wen Dao Sect, there were several cities that could teleport and communicate with each other.
Among them, the most famous were Jade Sword City and Dao Sword City.
Jade Sword City belonged to the Hanshui Holy Land, and Dao Sword City belonged to the Wen Dao Sect.
Originally, Lin Moyu had intended to leave the Hanshui Holy Land directly and head for the territory of the Wen Dao Sect.
Now that the incident with the Son of Taiyin had occurred, and he had killed quite a few people from the Wen Dao Sect, he certainly could not go to their territory.
He and Saint Master Gu Hanyu had consummated their relationship, and with the subtle influence of the lianli branch, they had developed feelings for each other.
Now, Lin Moyu would think of Saint Master Gu Hanyu from time to time. In his subconscious, he had truly come to regard Saint Master Gu Hanyu as his wife.
Thinking about it, Saint Master Gu Hanyu's feelings were likely not much different. Jade Sword City, which he could not go to before, had now become safe instead.
The changes in all things were truly unexpected.
Now, Jade Sword City was only a million kilometers away from him, and he would be able to arrive in a little over a day.
Lin Moyu planned to head to Jade Sword City and then travel to even more distant places through the Lufeng Chamber of Commerce located there.
However, Lin Moyu still had a doubt in his heart. Bone Hell had been eating its way here, and he did not know how many Chaos Corrosive Worms it had consumed.
Now, Bone Hell was on the verge of advancing again to reach the Mid-stage Heavenly Venerable Realm, yet he had not encountered a single Dao Venerable Realm Chaos Corrosive Worm.
Apart from the two brought by Dao Venerable Jiang Ruoxue, he had not encountered a single one.
"Where did the Dao Venerable Realm Chaos Corrosive Worms go?"
The less he saw of them, the more Lin Moyu felt that something was wrong.
Especially since he hadn't seen one for hundreds of thousands of kilometers; that meant something major was afoot.
When things happen out of the ordinary, there must be something strange. Although the Chaos Corrosive Worms lacked intelligence, they possessed instincts.
The higher the realm and the stronger the power, the more intense their instincts became.
There must be something that had attracted all the Dao Venerable Realm Chaos Corrosive Worms.
"If those Dao Venerables who came looking for me knew that there were no Dao Venerable Realm Chaos Corrosive Worms in the Chaos Zone, I wonder if they would regret it."
Lin Moyu chuckled inwardly. Those Dao Venerables had not entered the Chaos Zone precisely because they feared the Dao Venerable Realm Chaos Corrosive Worms.
If they had known this earlier, they would have come in to find him long ago.
At that time, he would still be able to escape. He could withstand three or five Dao Venerables, but not dozens or hundreds.
The Sun Origin gradually emerged, the Moon Origin faded away, and the taiyin talisman in the center of Lin Moyu's brow also gradually disappeared.
The sky brightened, and the Chaos Zone became brighter as well, with the colors gradually fading away.
Dao Venerable Huang Xing, who had been operating the flying cloud boat and had never made a sound, suddenly spoke, "Master, there are Dao Venerable Realm Chaos Corrosive Worms ahead."
Hearing this, Lin Moyu's spirits were lifted.
He activated the Eye of the Undead and looked ahead. One hundred thousand meters away, there were indeed Dao Venerable Realm Chaos Corrosive Worms.
There was not just one, but six of them.
"Stop!"
The flying cloud boat stopped at Lin Moyu's command. At this moment, they were still about fifty thousand meters away from the Dao Venerable Realm Chaos Corrosive Worms.
Lin Moyu did not approach. He discovered that these Chaos Corrosive Worms seemed to be moving in a certain direction, but for some reason, they were flying crookedly, as if they were being influenced by some kind of power.
Their appearance was exactly the same as that of a cultivator who was being affected by the power of chaos in the Chaos Zone.
The Eye of the Undead looked past the six Dao Venerable Realm Chaos Corrosive Worms, trying to see further ahead.
However, apart from a chaotic mass of Power of Origin, he could see nothing.
Inside the Chaos Zone, the effectiveness of the Eye of the Undead was severely suppressed, and he could only see about one hundred thousand meters.
Lin Moyu looked ahead, "There is something ahead that has affected them. Dao Venerable Huang Xing, can you tell what it is?"
He had the Eye of the Undead, but in terms of strength, he was naturally inferior to Dao Venerable Huang Xing.
Dao Venerable Huang Xing looked forward, his Dao Venerable Realm power surging into his eyes. A few seconds later, he shook his head and said, "The power of chaos ahead is very strong; I cannot see through it either."
Lin Moyu murmured, "The power of chaos is behaving abnormally; perhaps this is the reason why the Dao Venerable Realm Chaos Corrosive Worms have disappeared."
"Move closer slowly, and be prepared for battle at any time."
Dao Venerable Huang Xing nodded and steered the flying cloud boat forward.
When they were two thousand meters away, the Chaos Corrosive Worms discovered Lin Moyu. They did not turn around to attack, but continued to move forward.
Clearly, the thing ahead was more attractive to them.
When he was ten thousand meters away from the six Chaos Corrosive Worms, Lin Moyu summoned Bone Hell.
Bone Hell engulfed the six Chaos Corrosive Worms, and the Hell Fierce Spirits rushed out crazily, tearing at them.
Only then did the Chaos Corrosive Worms begin to counterattack, but it was too late!
Lin Moyu discovered that the six Chaos Corrosive Worms before him were not powerful; they were weaker than the two Chaos Corrosive Worms that Dao Venerable Jiang Ruoxue had brought, and significantly so.
There was no division of stages for the Dao Venerable Realm Chaos Corrosive Worms; they were all collectively referred to as the Dao Venerable Realm.
This method of classification was extremely crude, and because not many people entered the Chaos Zone and there was nothing worth exploring inside, no one cared.
However, with a comparison, Lin Moyu realized that even among the same Chaos Corrosive Worms, even if their appearance and size were similar, there were differences in their strength.
"These six in front should be the weakest."
"Moreover, their previous movement trajectories were very strange. If we calculate based on this, the power of chaos ahead is very strong, so much so that even the Chaos Corrosive Worms have been affected."
"What exactly is it that is attracting these Chaos Corrosive Worms to flock there?"
Bone Hell devoured the six Chaos Corrosive Worms, taking another step closer to the next advancement.
That was how Bone Hell was; every time it felt like it was about to advance, it was always just a little bit short.
Over the years, Lin Moyu had long since gotten used to it. If it wasn't enough now, he would just have to devour more.
The flying cloud boat advanced another few tens of thousands of meters, and the situation ahead slowly came into view.
Lin Moyu kept the Eye of the Undead activated, "The Eye of the Undead is becoming more and more restricted. It seems that the power of chaos ahead is also becoming increasingly severe."
"Dao Venerable Huang Xing, boost the power of the flying cloud boat to its maximum, and be vigilant at all times."
The flying cloud boat radiated a faint light, resisting the power of chaos.
Lin Moyu had a thought and summoned Po Jun as well.
Dao Venerable Huang Xing's strength was inferior to Po Jun's, so having Po Jun by his side would provide greater safety.
In the face of unusual situations, caution is never a mistake.
The power of chaos was formless and intangible, making it difficult to prevent. Even a Dao Venerable could only barely sense some of it, which was why they would be affected.
However, here, the power of chaos actually revealed a trace of its presence.
It was because it was too dense and powerful that it could be seen by the naked eye.
The light sphere of the flying cloud boat was compressed by the power of chaos and began to deform.
Fortunately, Lin Moyu had asked Dao Venerable Huang Xing to boost the power of the flying cloud boat from the beginning, so it could still maintain stability for now.
The visibility was getting worse and worse, and the visible distance was constantly shrinking.
Lin Moyu knew that he absolutely could not leave the flying cloud boat now, otherwise he would not be able to control his direction at all and would only be carried away by the power of chaos, not knowing where he would end up.
Dao Venerable Huang Xing continuously injected his Dao power into the flying cloud boat, maintaining its stability.
In order to resist the power of chaos, Dao Venerable Huang Xing consumed quite a lot of energy.
Fortunately, he was a Dao Venerable, and his power was endless.
If it were a Heavenly Venerate, they would likely exhaust their power before long.
The flying cloud boat was like a small boat in a storm, moving forward slowly and helplessly.
The sense of distance was lost, and even Lin Moyu's spiritual sense could not tell how far he had flown.
Even his sense of direction was lost, and Lin Moyu did not know whether he was still flying in the central region or if he had already been carried to another direction by the power of chaos.
The light sphere of the flying cloud boat was compressed to the limit, becoming an oval shape.
The entire flying cloud boat was shaking, as if it would collapse at any moment.
The loss of spiritual sense made Lin Moyu feel uneasy, and he frowned tightly, "Dao Venerable Huang Xing, can we still retreat now?"
Dao Venerable Huang Xing told the truth, "We have already lost our sense of direction."
Lin Moyu slapped his forehead. Revenants had their pros and cons; sometimes they were too rigid and not flexible enough.
They had no fear, so they would not be afraid of danger.
Now, as long as he did not give the order to retreat, they would not retreat even to their deaths.
Things having reached this point, he could only comfort himself, "Since I am here, I will make the best of it!"
They flew for another stretch, and the power of chaos became even stronger. Through the protection of the flying cloud boat, Lin Moyu could feel the strength of the power of chaos outside.
Creak! The ancient flying cloud boat made a creaking sound of being squeezed. Its defensive power had reached its limit, and it looked like the flying cloud boat was about to collapse.
Lin Moyu steeled his heart and made a decision, "Po Jun, protect me!"
At his command, Po Jun released a powerful aura, opened his large hands, and shielded Lin Moyu in the center.
Lin Moyu simultaneously put away Dao Venerable Huang Xing and the flying cloud boat.
In an instant, an incomparably majestic power of chaos swept in.
His spiritual wisdom was in a state of chaos, and even his soul was affected by the power of chaos, causing his thoughts to fall into a state of sluggishness.
The World Tree swayed crazily, making a rustling sound.
The ten-colored dragon soul crystal spewed out streams of Dragon Breath, helping his soul stay clear-headed.
However, even with them doing this, it could only keep his soul slightly clear; it was far from enough to allow him to think and control himself.
Finally, the scepter of calamity, which had been motionless for a long time, seemed to sense its master's predicament and vibrated with extreme arrogance.
The soul gem emitted a touch of earthy yellow light. As the light flowed, the layer of earthy yellow armor on the surface of Lin Moyu's soul appeared, and his soul immediately became clear.
Lin Moyu came back to his senses, looked down at the scepter of calamity, and said, "Thank you!"
The scepter of calamity did not move; it was incomparably arrogant and disdained to converse with Lin Moyu.
Lin Moyu looked at the yellow light on his soul body and discovered that this layer of earthy yellow armor-like light was something the scepter of calamity had already given him long ago.
It was just that he had never known how to use it.
"Possessing a treasure mountain without knowing it."
Lin Moyu gave a wry smile. The scepter of calamity was truly incomparably arrogant and would never tell him.
It seemed he would have to rely on himself to study it.
His soul returned to normal, but his physical body was still being swept up and carried around by the power of chaos.
