It was only approximate. Then, by injecting the power of karma provided by An Yuyan into it, the direction indicated by the fragment changed slightly.

Because the distance was vast, a tiny change resulted in a world of difference, and there was no need to activate the key repeatedly this time.

With An Yuyan by his side, there was no shortage of the power of karma, and the two pierced through the World Mist.

Flying toward the distance, they walked upon the Great Dao, moving at an astonishing speed.

In the blink of an eye, they had traveled hundreds of millions of miles. An Yuyan suddenly asked, "Fellow Daoist Lin, how do you intend to open that gate this time?"

Lin Moyu replied, "I already found the method to open it with ten rings last time, but the situation was special then, and there wasn't enough time."

"This time, I intend to open this gate perfectly." An Yuyan was clearly surprised. "Fellow Daoist Lin actually managed to find the method to open the final ring."

Lin Moyu asked, "Yuyan, have you obtained this gate before?"

An Yuyan shook her head.

"I haven't obtained it, but others have, and I have helped them."

"Naturally, I know a few things about this gate. Several Eternal Existences and numerous Lords of the Great Dao have."

"Only the Human Emperor once opened the gate with nine rings, and he also said that no one could open it with ten rings."

Lin Moyu laughed, "It seems the Human Emperor was being presumptuous." An Yuyan laughed, "I think so too. Although the Human Emperor was brilliant, compared to Fellow Daoist Lin, he still falls quite short."

While chatting and laughing, the two had crossed an infinite distance and arrived at their destination.

A gate was floating within the World Mist. It hadn't appeared for long, and the accumulated power was clearly insufficient.

Not even the first ring was fully lit. The aftermath of a battle arrived; people were fighting outside the gate.

The combatants were several Lords of the Dao. Using her insight into karma, An Yuyan saw clearly that they were likely Lords of the Dao from the surrounding worlds.

They had discovered this gate and come to fight over it. Over countless years…

…many worlds had known the legend of this gate, but the gate was something one could encounter but not seek. If it ever appeared near a world, it would inevitably attract conflict.

Lin Moyu said, "In that case, let them leave." He snapped his fingers, and an Undead Servant flew out.

It charged straight into the center of the battlefield. Boom! A violent wind suddenly arose.

Massive power erupted from the Undead Servant. The Lords of the Dao who were fighting had no power to resist and were blasted thousands of miles away. They looked at each other in dismay.

With expressions of terror, they stared at the suddenly appeared Undead Servant. They could feel a terrifying power from the Undead Servant; this kind of power was simply not something they could contend with.

This existence wearing battle armor was extremely powerful and incomparably terrifying.

The Undead Servant's cold voice rang out, "Scram, or die!"

The voice was filled with killing intent, slashing out like a sharp sword, striking every Lord of the Dao.

The Lords of the Dao screamed and vomited blood. Just a single sentence, a few short words, had already left them severely injured. How could they possibly contend with such an existence?

This mysterious gate was good, but their own lives were more important. If they lost their lives, what was the use of this gate?

An Yuyan watched this scene and giggled, "Fellow Daoist Lin is truly overbearing." The Undead Servant was controlled by Lin Moyu and acted entirely according to his commands.

Lin Moyu said, "Simplicity is better." An Yuyan asked, "Wouldn't it be simpler to just kill them directly?"

Lin Moyu shook his head, "There is no grudge or enmity. There is no need to unnecessarily increase karma." An Yuyan said, "Actually, a little more karma isn't necessarily a bad thing."

Chapter 4194: Shattered Glaze

How could Lin Moyu not understand An Yuyan's meaning?

The implication in her words referred to the karma between her and him. It was precisely because of this unbreakable karma that the two had reached this point.

Although there were no promises, some things did not need promises. Lin Moyu slowly flew to the front of the gate, placed his hand on it, moved his soul power to envelop the gate, and put it away.

"Let's change locations." Lin Moyu did not intend to open the gate here. An Yuyan smiled, "Follow me; I know of a nice place." Her fingertips shimmered with a faint light, guiding the way. They flew in one direction, covering hundreds of millions of miles in the blink of an eye.

An Yuyan stopped, and the faint light grew intense. The World Mist ahead dispersed, revealing a world.

This world had already shattered, and there were fragments everywhere. However, the world itself was iridescent and extremely beautiful; all the fragments had turned into crystals.

Like the most beautiful gemstones, reflecting colorful hues. The source of these colors was the Yin-Yang Origin in the center of the world, which was already more than half destroyed, burning.

An Yuyan said, "I have traveled through the Domains for a million years and been to many worlds."

"This world was once burned by a Lord of the Great Dao using flames, burning the world into fragments. The remnants of all things in heaven and earth were scorched into glazed gemstones, becoming quite beautiful instead."

"I gave this world a name: Shattered Glaze. I sealed this world off and treated it as my own private garden. I occasionally come to take a look and see the dazzling display here."

"Compared to monotonous worlds, it is indeed a very beautiful world, resplendent with ten thousand colors."

"Shattered yet beautiful; looking out, it is a world-class kaleidoscope."

An Yuyan continued, "No one will come to disturb us in this world. How about it?" The two entered the world. What they saw inside was a different scene from what they had seen from the outside.

But no matter which, it was beautiful—beautiful to the point of being breathtaking, beautiful yet desolate.

Behind this beauty was the death of countless living beings. They arrived at the center of the world.

Lin Moyu took out the gate, and simultaneously, hundreds of millions of Undead Servants appeared. The Undead Servants mobilized various powers and injected them into the gate.

At this moment, Lin Moyu's realm was higher, and the Undead Servants had also become stronger. The power they could mobilize was far greater than before.

In the blink of an eye, the first ring lit up completely, and then the second ring began to hum and vibrate.

It looked like it wouldn't be long before it lit up as well. An Yuyan asked, "Does Fellow Daoist Lin know what this gate is called?"

Lin Moyu shook his head; he did not know. An Yuyan asked with a hint of curiosity.

"Over countless years, so many people have gone inside, yet no one has ever known the name of this gate."

Lin Moyu's eyes held a thoughtful expression. Perhaps it required a perfect opening in the ten-ring state to know the name of this gate.

He already knew about the world behind the gate; it was a collapsed Domain, not a world, but a Domain. An entire Domain had collapsed.

Moreover, many Transcendents had once appeared in this Domain. There were several Transcendents in the Wanling Pavilion alone, not to mention other sects.

In that Domain, Transcendents were not rare, but Lin Moyu had a feeling that the Transcendents in that Domain were not powerful.

The Transcendents in Wanling Pavilion, if they truly fought, might not necessarily beat the Eternal Existences of the Five-World Domain. It could only be said that the Domain itself was not strong enough, so transcendence was relatively easy.

Transcendence was still transcendence, after all. Against some Domains that had no Transcendents and were equally weak, they still held an absolute advantage.

Therefore, for many years, the Wanling Pavilion had been invincible, occupying a large number of worlds and nurturing world spirits.

But it was precisely because they were not strong enough themselves that, after provoking a truly formidable enemy, the entire Domain was quickly crushed.

According to Lin Moyu's guess, after an existence like the Candle Dragon became a Transcendent, it was possible that the Domain where the Wanling Pavilion was located…

Lin Moyu was referring to the entire Domain, not just the Wanling Pavilion. Even among Transcendents, the difference in strength was worlds apart, and it was even difficult to compensate with numbers.

It was just like lighting up the gate rings now. The first ring took less than a minute, the second ring took only ten minutes, and the third ring, at the current speed, would take about an hour.

It was much faster than before. This was the gap brought about by strength; the level of power was different, and the results were vastly different.

After the third ring opened, Lin Moyu summoned more Undead Servants. The power provided was even greater, and the speed of lighting up the rings did not drop significantly.

An Yuyan took out a tea table and poured tea for Lin Moyu. At this moment, she was no longer the aloof Eternal Existence, but instead embodied a virtuous wife, accompanying her husband.

Lin Moyu drank the tea, his gaze fixed on the distance, lost in thought.

An Yuyan smiled, "What are you thinking about?" Lin Moyu said, "Thinking about an old guy."

An Yuyan was somewhat curious, "What old guy?" Lin Moyu said, "An old guy who has a grudge against me. In the future, when there is an opportunity, I must teach him a good lesson…"

An Yuyan made an "oh" sound, "With Fellow Daoist Lin's current abilities, is it not enough to teach him a lesson?" Lin Moyu shook his head, "Not enough now, but it should be no problem in the future."

An Yuyan did not press the matter. She could clearly feel that Lin Moyu did not want to delve into this topic. As intelligent as she was, she naturally knew how to gauge the situation.

The two drank tea and chatted along the way. An Yuyan had lived for countless years, had experienced many things, and had seen even more.

Lin Moyu also recounted some of his experiences. Only then did An Yuyan discover that although Lin Moyu's cultivation time was short, his experiences were not a bit less than her own.

Her own cultivation was very smooth; although there were dangers, compared to Lin Moyu, they fell far short.

Lin Moyu had walked step by step, and every step was not easy. If he took one wrong step, it would mean total destruction.

Several days later, the sixth ring lit up, and it was time to start lighting the seventh ring.

It used to be very difficult to light up the seventh ring, requiring a lot of time, but now it was much easier.

Lin Moyu used the Gather Power technique, raising his strength to half-step transcendence.

In this state, Lin Moyu could rely on the Great Dao World-Destroying Palm to manipulate massive amounts of great dao source qi.

But at the same time, the rules within the Domain of heaven and earth would expel him. Lin Moyu whispered, "Soulless, help!"

His voice spread through the rules of the Domain, and the phantom of the Soulless Beast immediately appeared in the void.

The Soulless Beast mobilized the rules to delay the heaven and earth's expulsion of Lin Moyu, allowing Lin Moyu to maintain the half-step transcendence state for a long time.

An Yuyan said in surprise, "The Soulless Beast replaced the Candle Dragon?"

Lin Moyu said, "Yes. After the Candle Dragon left, the heaven and earth became chaotic. The rules of heaven and earth needed to find a rule manager, so I let the Soulless Beast take the Candle Dragon's position."

An Yuyan gave an "mm" sound, "This makes things much more convenient." Lin Moyu chuckled and manipulated the great dao source qi to inject into the gate.

With his current strength and realm, the great dao source qi he manipulated was countless times greater than before. Coupled with the help of the Undead Servants, the seventh ring was lighting up at an astonishing speed.

At the current speed, in ten days at most, the seventh ring could be completely lit.

A brilliant light flashed in An Yuyan's beautiful eyes; she knew very well how difficult it was to light up the rings.

Back then, the Human Emperor and others used time measured in thousands or ten thousands of years. But in front of Lin Moyu, these thousands or ten thousands of years had turned into a few days; the gap here could not be compared.

In her eyes, Lin Moyu turned decay into magic; it was inconceivable.

As the seventh ring gradually lit up, Chapter 4195: Reversing Yin and Yang, Lighting the Tenth Ring.

An Yuyan felt it was even more inconceivable; she felt that she was witnessing a miracle.

Logically speaking, an existence who had cultivated to her realm should no longer believe in things like miracles. They all understood a principle: everything has a cause; there is no such thing as a true miracle.

Especially a Lord of Karma like her, she understood even more that all things could not escape karma. Yet, what was displayed before her eyes gave her the illusion of seeing a miracle.

Of course, she could understand the reason behind it; the reason why the rings could be lit so quickly was truly because the power was sufficiently strong.
