“I have always wanted to uncover the truth, Elder Tree,” Lin Moyu said, “regarding the Origin Catastrophe.”

"Actually, even among those in the Great Dao Realm, not many people know about it, as you are aware."

"For those of us in the Great Dao Realm, we spend more time in seclusion than we do awake. When the catastrophe descended back then…"

"…many in the Great Dao Realm were in seclusion, and others were in the Soul Void and couldn't return in time. Later, everyone was hastily ordered to go to war."

"Many were in a state of confusion; they didn't even know the cause when they fell."

Lin Moyu paused. "When the Origin Catastrophe descended, was there really no omen at all?"

"In the Outer Heaven Great Dao, didn't the experts cultivating the Great Dao of Fate sense anything?"

Lin Moyu found it hard to understand. "If the cultivators on the Origin Continent didn't sense it, that would be normal."

"But on the Outer Heaven Great Dao, how could those cultivating the Great Dao of Fate not sense it?"

Elder Tree said, "Indeed, there was no sensation. Strange, isn't it?"

"Actually, the reason is very simple: the heavenly secrets were obscured, and the Great Dao of Fate became useless."

"Later, facts confirmed this point. Not long after the war broke out, Great Daos began to collapse."

"Little friend, you are so intelligent; you must have already guessed which Great Dao was the first to collapse."

Lin Moyu's heart trembled. "The Great Dao of Fate?"

Elder Tree chuckled.

"Correct. The Great Dao of Fate collapsed, but fortunately…"

"…it wasn't completely shattered. After all, it is one of the Origin Great Daos; it is not that easy to completely collapse."

"As long as there is enough time, the Great Dao of Fate can still recover. We have been trapped here for countless years."

"I imagine the Great Dao of Fate has already recovered. Even if it hasn't returned to its peak, it has at least recovered partially."

"At that time, the Great Dao of Fate lost its function, so naturally, we could no longer foresee the future path."

"In terms of the entire campaign, we lost the initiative." Lin Moyu understood this logic.

"If the Great Dao of Fate had remained intact, it would have been possible to constantly predict the enemy's next move. In this way…"

"…one could always seize the initiative and fighting would be much easier. But once the Great Dao of Fate collapsed…"

"…the advantage on this side vanished, and we fell into a passive position everywhere. That makes sense."

Lin Moyu felt that if he were to invade a Great World, unless he could completely crush them with power, he would definitely solve the Great Dao of Fate first.

Turning the opponent blind. However, Lin Moyu also had some doubts. The Great Dao of Fate was, after all, an Origin Great Dao.

"Is it so easy to collapse?"

Elder Tree shook his head. "Of course not."

"The other side also paid a huge price to collapse the Great Dao of Fate. Actually, the main reason is that the Great Dao of Fate had no Dao Master. If there had been a Dao Master…"

"…the other side could never have collapsed the Great Dao of Fate. Let me continue; the subsequent war began to reach a stalemate."

"We could only react to their moves, which was somewhat passive." Elder Tree had lived for a very long time.

He attained the Dao early, lived longer than most in the Great Dao Realm, and knew quite a lot.

First, the heavenly secrets were obscured, then the opponent paid a price to shatter the Great Dao of Fate, and the Origin Continent had to fight hastily.

At the beginning, the Origin Continent was fighting very passively. The opponent came with fierce momentum: the Outer Domain Celestial God army from the Celestial God Realm.

The sword and fist army of the Black Blood Great World, along with their affiliated worlds, invaded the Origin Continent.

However, later, the experts of the Origin Continent reacted quickly and emerged from seclusion one after another.

They returned from the Soul Void, joined the battle, and the situation began to improve rapidly.

It was also at that time that Elder Tree and the ancestor of the Gu family received orders to intercept the Seventh-Rank Fist Saint of the Black Blood Great World, and in the end, both were trapped here.

It was precisely because of this that the two Great Dao Realm experts kept their lives. If they had, after completing the mission…

"…continued to participate in the war, it's hard to say if they would have survived. So, things are hard to predict."

Who knows what is a blessing in disguise? Elder Tree did not know what happened after he received the mission.

Lin Moyu also recounted what he knew. The information from both sides merged to form a complete picture.

Chapter 3371: What is the Opportunity for the Great Change of the Origin Continent

Elder Tree sighed, "I didn't expect that five of the nine continents have sunk."

"It's truly a pity." Lin Moyu nodded. "It is indeed a great pity."

Elder Tree said, "However, it doesn't matter. As long as the core of the Origin Continent is not damaged…"

"…the nine continents will recover sooner or later; it's just a matter of time." Lin Moyu was stunned.

"Can the continents still recover?"

Elder Tree said, "Naturally, they can."

"The Origin Continent is not that fragile. After so many years, I think it's coming soon. It probably needs an opportunity."

Opportunity, opportunity. Lin Moyu grasped some information from Elder Tree's words. Elder Tree's words coincided with those of the Demon Emperor.

They also corresponded with the words of Heavenly Venerable Shuizhi. A guess sprouted in Lin Moyu's heart: the great change of heaven and earth they spoke of…

"…could it be the great change of the Origin Continent's recovery? Five of the Nine Provinces sank. Although they sank…"

"…these five provinces still exist; they sank to the bottom of the Boundary Sea. If the Nine Provinces are to recover…"

"…the most likely way is naturally to let the five sunken provinces rise again from the bottom of the Boundary Sea." Lin Moyu believed…

The Origin Continent had this ability, and doing so was also the simplest method.

At least it was much easier than recasting the five provinces. But if that happened, what about the seal at the bottom of the Boundary Sea?

What about those Outer Domain Celestial Gods inside the seal?

If those guys came out, with the power of the Origin Continent…

They couldn't stop them at all. The continent… if that were really the case.

To stop them, there was only one way: to allow those in the Great Dao Realm on the Outer Heaven Great Dao…

To enter the Origin. Needless to say, it would inevitably be a terrifying war, and this war would affect the entire Origin Continent.

The aftermath alone would be enough to destroy heaven and earth. Lin Moyu imagined the possibility of that war and the consequences it would bring. He felt…

The Origin Continent might not be able to withstand it. If it wanted to recover the five provinces, even if only out of instinct…

The Origin Continent should not have to endure such a war, and the Great Dao would not allow such a war to break out; it was not in its interest.

Moreover, from the punishment Master Kurong received, it could be seen that the Great Dao would not allow the Origin Continent to suffer too much damage. Therefore, this war…

The Great Dao would not allow it. Lin Moyu's thoughts were like lightning; his leap-frog thinking was conducting various analyses.

Searching for various possibilities. Finally, he arrived at a possible answer.

The so-called opportunity had two possibilities. The first was triggered by the Origin Ancestral Land.

Every descent of the Origin Ancestral Land would cause the entire Origin Continent to tremble, and only it could possibly become the opportunity for the world's great change.

The second was the seal at the bottom of the Boundary Sea. If someone could kill the Outer Domain Celestial Gods inside the seal, making them no longer a threat to the Origin Continent…

Or if the threat could be reduced to a certain degree, it could also become the opportunity for the continent's great change. Two possibilities.

One was passive, one was active; both were possible.

Lin Moyu felt that if he were the Great Dao, he would definitely choose the latter.

The latter was safer and caused less damage to the Origin Continent, but it required time.

It was incredibly difficult. Lin Moyu slowly opened his eyes, and Elder Tree's voice came to his ears.

"What are you thinking about?"

"You've been lost in thought." Lin Moyu said,

"I had a dream, fantasizing about the magnificent scene after the Origin Continent recovers." Elder Tree sighed with three parts of emotion.

"Back then, the Nine Provinces were all together, and the Origin was complete."

"The Boundary Sea roared, the Great Dao manifested, and we in the Great Dao Realm could come and go from the Origin Continent at will."

"Preaching and teaching were everywhere. Anyone with a little talent, even if they couldn't become a Dao Venerable…"

"…becoming a Heavenly Venerable was not a problem. Everyone cultivated; except for newborn babies…"

"…there were almost no ordinary people. Back then, I was at the center of the Antarctic Continent, stepping on the frozen earth."

"Preaching to countless clansmen!"

Elder Tree reminisced about the situation back then, feeling a sense of gratification.

While reminiscing, there was also a thick sense of helplessness. Lin Moyu could understand Elder Tree's emotions.

He did not offer comfort; for an existence like Elder Tree, comfort was not needed.

With Elder Tree's Dao Heart, it was just an expression of his feelings, sighing occasionally.

His Dao Heart had long been as firm as iron, completely unshakable. Lin Moyu asked,

"Elder Tree, do you know about the Origin Ancestral Land?"

Elder Tree said,

"I know a little. The Origin Ancestral Land is a very mysterious place. The time and location of each of its descents are never fixed."

"Sometimes it is on the Origin Continent, sometimes it is in the Outer Heaven Great Dao. Even the Great Dao of Fate cannot predict it."

"After it appears, it will choose some people to enter. Some people have gained a lot from inside."

"They have obtained many benefits; there are treasures and cultivation gains."

"There are also some who stayed inside forever and never came out, but that is a minority."

"Most people still came back. I didn't have this opportunity; I have never truly entered."

"So I don't know what is inside. The Origin Ancestral Land is indeed extremely mysterious, enough to be called the most mysterious place."

"Without a doubt." Lin Moyu guessed that the Origin Ancestral Land should not be an object of the Origin Continent.

Lin Moyu pondered slightly. "As far as I know, the Son of Taiyin and the Child of Taiyang are qualified to enter the Origin Ancestral Land."

"But they have never come out." Elder Tree shook his head slightly. "What you said is not correct."

"Once, a Son of Taiyin went in and came back alive. It is not that no one returned."

"As for the Child of Taiyang, the number of Children of Taiyang is too small. Since ancient times, not many have appeared."

"There is not much reference value." Lin Moyu received a new piece of information. It was not as the Demon Emperor had said.

The Son of Taiyin cannot come back after entering the Origin Ancestral Land. This is the benefit of living a long time. Elder Tree had lived too long.

He knew far more things than the Demon Emperor. Under Elder Tree's narration, Lin Moyu had a new understanding of the two major origins of Taiyang and Taiyin.

Taiyang and Taiyin are the two Origin Great Daos of the Origin Continent, and they are also the two most difficult Great Daos to comprehend. The difficulty of comprehending them…

"…exceeds any other Great Dao. Although they are there day and night, watched by the world…"

"…they are not as mysterious as other Great Daos, but only those recognized by them are qualified to comprehend them."

"Even so, since ancient times, whether it is the Son of Taiyin…"

"…or the Child of Taiyang, no one has been able to truly comprehend them. However, one thing is certain."

"The Son of Taiyin or the Child of Taiyang are both people with strong luck. The Origin Ancestral Land seems to randomly select those who enter."

"Actually, there is a certain pattern. It is definitely not picking randomly." Lin Moyu guessed.

"Nine times out of ten, it is related to luck, and it is also related to cultivation level. Those in the Great Dao Realm cannot enter."

"Even Dao Masters cannot enter. Only those below the Great Dao Realm with sufficiently strong luck can enter."

Lin Moyu secretly thought in his heart, "In that case, before I enter the Origin Ancestral Land…"

"…I cannot advance to the Great Dao Realm yet. The Origin Ancestral Land, this place holds the secret of the Boundary Sea World."

"The Boundary Sea World must hide a great secret. I must find it out. For countless years…"
