Lin Moyu not allowing the Outer Domain Celestial God to detonate the formation meant that it could not use this to trigger the power of the Purple Pattern Origin, nor could it seize the opportunity to enter the ancestral grounds.
The formation nodes were being recaptured rapidly. As the number of formation nodes under the Outer Domain Celestial God's control decreased, its resistance would also drop rapidly, and the speed of recapture would only get faster.
Previously, it took several minutes to recapture a single formation node.
Now, one minute was sufficient.
Everything Lin Moyu did completely prevented the possibility of the Outer Domain Celestial God acting out of desperation.
Now the Outer Domain Celestial God only had two paths to take: possession or escape.
If it possessed one of the Thunderlight Purple-Striped Tigers, even if it possessed the Grand Elder, it would struggle to exert its full power and would not be able to escape the Demon Emperor's pursuit.
If it fled alone, it would likewise face the Demon Emperor's pursuit, but at least there would be a glimmer of hope for survival.
Lin Moyu had long considered this. He also thought that if the Demon Emperor failed to suppress and kill it, he would have to use his last Ninth Realm of Dao Venerable corpse and end this battle with Corpse Explosion.
Trading a Ninth Realm of Dao Venerable corpse for an incomplete Great Dao reward did not feel very worthwhile to Lin Moyu.
There was another possibility, which was to possess him, but since he was currently inside the formation, it would be very difficult for it to overcome the formation's obstruction to do so.
"What will you choose?"
Lin Moyu looked at the area occupied by the Outer Domain Celestial God with a playful glint in his eyes.
The formation nodes were being recaptured one by one, and the silver area belonging to the Outer Domain Celestial God was becoming smaller and smaller.
Now, unless it personally stepped into the fray, it would be impossible to block the offensive.
But even if it personally stepped in, although the Grand Elder's combat power was inferior to its, holding it off for a period of time was not a problem. There wasn't just one Grand Elder; the eight Grand Elders working together, while utilizing the power of the formation, could fully contend with the Outer Domain Celestial God's true body.
In the Purple Sun Tower, what both sides were competing in was more about their control over the formation, rather than their physical strength.
The speed of recapturing formation nodes was getting faster and faster.
800… 600… 400…
Seeing the formation nodes dwindling, the Tiger Legion acted as if they had taken stimulants, shouting as they recaptured the territory that originally belonged to them.
When only two hundred formation nodes remained, the area occupied by the Outer Domain Celestial God was reduced to the last small piece, less than one-twentieth of the entire formation.
Lin Moyu muttered to himself, "Just about time. It should make a move now."
Suddenly, the last two hundred formation nodes dimmed simultaneously.
Dao Enemy Locking sensed that the Outer Domain Celestial God had left the Purple Sun Tower.
It ultimately chose to flee with its true body and did not attempt possession.
As an Outer Domain Celestial God, a dignified Great Dao Realm powerhouse, it did not look down upon the physical bodies of the few Grand Elders.
Lin Moyu simultaneously sent a voice transmission to the Demon Emperor, "It has come out!"
The Demon Emperor replied, "Rest assured, it cannot escape!"
Lin Moyu moved his consciousness and said to the Grand Elder, "The Outer Domain Celestial God has already left. The Demon Emperor is currently battling it outside. I will return this place to you all; I shall depart first."
After saying this, Lin Moyu returned the formation authority to the Grand Elder and left the formation.
With his consciousness returned, Lin Moyu immediately said to Clan Leader Lei Tian, "Let's go out!"
Clan Leader Lei Tian waved his hand, opening the passage to the outside world, and said, "I just felt that the Outer Domain Celestial God seems to have come out of the Purple Sun Tower."
Lin Moyu said, "Yes, it has left the Purple Sun Tower."
Clan Leader Lei Tian was first happy, then shocked, "Where did it go?"
Lin Moyu said, "It should still be above Purple Tiger City. The Demon Emperor has already arrived and should be able to stop it."
"Let us also go over and see if we can help with anything. Don't let it escape."
Clan Leader Lei Tian realized the seriousness of the situation and immediately transformed into a bolt of lightning, shooting outwards.
Lin Moyu unfurled the Wings of Time Curse, and the Wings of Time stirred time, allowing Lin Moyu to barely keep up with Clan Leader Lei Tian.
Clan Leader Lei Tian rushed out of the Purple Sun Tower in the blink of an eye. It was only then that he noticed he seemed to have forgotten Lin Moyu.
Looking back, he saw that Lin Moyu had actually followed him out, which left him shocked by Lin Moyu's speed.
A Dao Venerate Second Realm cultivator could actually keep up with him in terms of speed—no one would believe it if told… But now was not the time to dwell on this question.
Powerful energy fluctuations came from high above.
Lin Moyu whispered, "The battlefield is above. Let's go up!"
They were currently at an altitude of 12,000 meters, but the real battlefield was even higher up.
The two rushed towards the sky again, and when they reached an altitude of 20,000 meters, they finally saw the battlefield.
In the high altitude, the mist was hazy, and the wind howled.
No matter how fierce the wind was, it could not disperse this thin mist.
The mist covered a large area, and the Demon Emperor was inside the mist, wrapped in thick fog as if wearing armor made of dense mist, attacking wildly.
The Outer Domain Celestial God revealed its true body; it was not large in size, and its body was transparent, like a soul.
It had been completely suppressed by the Demon Emperor and had no power to resist.
The strength gap between the two sides was not small. Although this Outer Domain Celestial God was also in the Great Dao Realm, without an external object to inhabit, its combat power was only equivalent to the Ninth Realm of Dao Venerable.
The strength of this special type of Outer Domain Celestial God lay in its special abilities, not its inherent combat power.
If the fight continued like this, the Demon Emperor's victory was only a matter of time; this Outer Domain Celestial God would surely die!
Seeing this, Lin Moyu and Clan Leader Lei Tian did not rush into the mist to interfere with the Demon Emperor.
The two stood at either end of the mist, one on the left and one on the right, to prevent the Outer Domain Celestial God from escaping.
Lin Moyu already had the great dao undying pill in his hand. Compared to using Corpse Explosion, he preferred to use the great dao undying pill.
Things were valuable because of their scarcity; after all, there was only one Ninth Realm of Dao Venerable corpse left.
Although he did not enter the mist, it did not mean that Lin Moyu had no means to help the Demon Emperor. The simplest method was the Great Dao of Luck.
The Great Dao of Luck True Body appeared, condensing a Sword of Luck.
With the enhancement of the Great Dao of Luck True Body, the condensed Sword of Luck was stronger than it was in the formation.
The Sword of Luck stabbed into the Outer Domain Celestial God's body, three times in a row.
The aura of the Outer Domain Celestial God suddenly weakened significantly. Its luck was reduced, affecting its combat power.
Seeing this, the Demon Emperor unleashed even more powerful strength, roaring repeatedly, as streaks of golden light descended from the sky, striking the Outer Domain Celestial God like meteors.
The Outer Domain Celestial God was beaten until it had no power to fight back. It turned its head and looked at Lin Moyu.
Its eyes were full of killing intent; the person it hated most at this moment was naturally Lin Moyu. If not for Lin Moyu, it would not have ended up in such a state.
Suddenly, the Outer Domain Celestial God became silent, shifting from roaring to stillness.
Its figure became illusory and transparent, space distorted, and it vanished into the mist in an instant.
The mist shrouding the world suddenly became dense. The originally thin mist now turned into a solid, high wall, turning the world into a prison.
The mist in front of Lin Moyu bulged violently, as if something was about to burst out.
Space constantly twisted and deformed. The Outer Domain Celestial God cast a secret technique, using its own power to distort space, erupting with heaven-shaking force.
Powerful energy transmitted through the mist, affecting the space outside the mist.
Space was folded upon itself, forming a narrow slit; the Outer Domain Celestial God intended to escape through this slit.
Moreover, the direction it chose was exactly the direction Lin Moyu was in.
Unfortunately, the Demon Emperor's reaction was too fast; its breakout attempt did not seem to succeed.
The Demon Emperor snorted coldly, "Don't even think about escaping!"
He arrived in an instant, giving the Outer Domain Celestial God no chance to flee. Ten thousand streaks of golden light bombarded the Outer Domain Celestial God.
A sense of unease arose in Lin Moyu's heart; the Wings of Time vibrated, and he retreated rapidly.
The golden light struck down, and the space that had been forcibly folded was hit by the Demon Emperor's attack and exploded with a bang.
The Outer Domain Celestial God dove headfirst into the shattered space and disappeared without a trace.
The shattered space connected the inside and outside of the mist, breaking through the heaven and earth prison set up by the Demon Emperor.
Lin Moyu secretly thought it was bad. He knew that the Outer Domain Celestial God had the ability to travel through space; in the Purple Sun Tower, the Outer Domain Celestial God had already revealed this ability.
Relying on the Dao Enemy Locking on the Outer Domain Celestial God, Lin Moyu sensed the Outer Domain Celestial God's position.
He stopped retreating; now that the Outer Domain Celestial God had broken through the Demon Emperor's blockade, he had to take action to stop it.
The Great Dao of Space True Body evolved, and the Great Dao of Space swirled around his body, instantly affecting the surrounding space.
Using space to control space—this was the best method.
Lin Moyu utilized his own Great Dao of Space to affect the Outer Domain Celestial God's ability to traverse space.
However, Lin Moyu's realm was simply too low, and it was far from that of the Outer Domain Celestial God, so the effect was minimal.
The Wings of Time Curse vibrated violently. The power of the Great Dao of Time was unleashed and mixed with the Great Dao of Space, forming the Power of Time and Space.
The Wings of Curse simultaneously cast a Curse, affecting the Outer Domain Celestial God's judgment of space.
Time, space, and Curse—the three-pronged approach caused the Outer Domain Celestial God to fall into a state of time and space chaos for a moment.
Although this state could not last, as long as it could hold for a while, it would be enough for the Demon Emperor to come over and re-establish the heaven and earth prison.
Every time the Outer Domain Celestial God's ability was activated, a long period of time had to pass before it could be used again.
This period of time was enough for the Demon Emperor to kill it.
Lin Moyu did his best to stop the Outer Domain Celestial God from escaping, buying time for the Demon Emperor.
The Demon Emperor had already rushed over, and the mist dispersed again.
The next instant, the Outer Domain Celestial God suddenly drilled out of the shattered space and let out a shrill scream.
The scream, like a giant wave, turned into a terrifyingly powerful soul shock, sweeping in all directions.
Lin Moyu's soul buzzed, and he instantly fell into a state of distraction.
It was not just Lin Moyu; even the Demon Emperor and Clan Leader Lei Tian were the same, losing the ability to react in an instant.
The soul shock launched by the Outer Domain Celestial God was an indiscriminate attack method. Regardless of the strength of the opponent's soul, their realm, or whether they had magical treasures, they would all be affected.
However, the momentary distraction could only last for an instant, perhaps less than one-hundredth of a second.
But for a powerhouse at the level of the Outer Domain Celestial God, one-hundredth of a second was enough to do many things.
Just as Lin Moyu regained his senses, he saw a phantom flash before his eyes.
"It wants to possess me!"
The thought had just arisen when the phantom of the Outer Domain Celestial God turned into a stream of light and drilled into his body.
Lin Moyu's body stiffened, and his consciousness automatically entered the Soul World.
His soul body slowly opened its eyes and looked at a corner of the Soul World.
In that corner, a disgusting aura was gathering, and in the blink of an eye, it condensed into the Outer Domain Celestial God.
The Outer Domain Celestial God entered Lin Moyu's Soul World and stared at Lin Moyu's soul body. Apart from killing intent, there was also intense hatred in its eyes.
Although the two sides did not speak the same language, Lin Moyu could feel that the Outer Domain Celestial God already hated him to the bone.
Lin Moyu's soul was not afraid in the slightest. In his own territory, even if you were a divine dragon, you would have to turn into an earthworm.
Killing it here did not require Corpse Explosion, and he could even save the great dao undying pill.
This was also the best outcome that Lin Moyu had envisioned.
The bulk of the Great Dao rewards would belong to him, and at the same time, it wouldn't make the Demon Emperor feel that he was deliberately stealing food.
Lin Moyu indeed had three parts of intentionality; he actually hoped from the bottom of his heart that things would evolve this way.
The appearance of the human race and the Outer Domain Celestial God was somewhat similar, and after the Wings of Time Curse were unfurled, the similarity increased further.
Therefore, he guessed that if the Outer Domain Celestial God wanted to possess someone, the best choice would inevitably be himself.
However, he would not actively lure the Outer Domain Celestial God, as that would be equivalent to snatching the Great Dao rewards from the Demon Emperor's hands, which would inevitably make the Demon Emperor unhappy.
The current situation was naturally the best case; he could obtain the bulk of the Great Dao rewards without offending the Demon Emperor.
After all, it was the Demon Emperor who failed to trap the Outer Domain Celestial God, and since the Outer Domain Celestial God actively came to possess him, the Demon Emperor naturally had nothing to say.
