Originally, the Star Charm Lich’s abilities, combined with the Dao of Illusion and the ancestral water, could not truly trap a High-level Heavenly Venerable in an illusion.

However, Cheng Hongguang was plagued by resentment every day; his soul had long been corrupted by this resentment, leaving little of his sanity intact.

Consequently, the Star Charm Lich's Dao of Illusion caused him to fall into an illusion from which he could not extricate himself.

Lin Moyu tapped his finger gently toward Cheng Hongguang, and a portion of the Strange Fish flesh turned into ash.

Boom!

Amidst the explosion, Cheng Hongguang was blown away once again. His Rule World continued to help him share the damage, but this time was much worse than before, with numerous cracks appearing in his Rule World.

Cheng Hongguang was injured, but he became even more frantic, showing no signs of regaining consciousness.

In his eyes, Lin Moyu had used some despicable means to injure him.

"He really is hard to kill."

"But that's fine. The harder you are to kill, the stronger you will be after becoming a Revenant!"

Lin Moyu took out the remaining three portions of flesh and detonated them all at once!

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The explosions rang out almost simultaneously. The Rule World shattered on the spot, and streams of black resentment rushed out from the broken world before dissipating into the surroundings.

Cheng Hongguang finally quieted down. He collapsed to the ground, his eyes filled with unwillingness.

Before dying, he finally regained some of his sanity.

His entire body was blown beyond recognition; not only his physical body but his soul as well.

His aura had become extremely weak. Cheng Hongguang murmured, "You surnamed Lin, how did you do it?"

Lin Moyu shook his head. "First of all, I am not from that Lin family you speak of. I have no relationship with the Lin family of the Origin Continent."

Cheng Hongguang clearly did not believe him, gritting his teeth, "You are surnamed Lin!"

Lin Moyu said, "Believe what you want. Now that you are going to die, if you have any last words, perhaps I can help you fulfill them when I go to the Origin Continent someday."

Cheng Hongguang looked at Lin Moyu and said tremblingly, "There are none!"

Lin Moyu frowned. "It doesn't matter if you won't say it. Then I will send you on your way."

Cheng Hongguang gave a miserable laugh. "You are not qualified to send me on my way!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a powerful force erupted from his body. The Power of Origin turned into flames, burning his soul.

"Self-destruct!"

Lin Moyu shouted angrily and quickly retreated.

He retreated quickly, but the power of the self-destruction was faster.

Amidst the roar, Cheng Hongguang's corpse exploded and was blown to pieces.

Lin Moyu was also shattered in the self-destruction; not only Lin Moyu, but the Star Charm Lich, who had just come out, was also killed in the explosion.

Purple light flickered, and Lin Moyu was resurrected through Rebirth. "Really troublesome. I didn't expect him to be able to self-destruct before dying."

"Fortunately, I have the Rebirth Talent, otherwise I would have died."

"One cannot underestimate a High-level Heavenly Venerable. A High-level Heavenly Venerable like Cheng Hongguang will always have a way to drag others down with him."

Lin Moyu admitted that he had been careless just now, thinking that since the Rule World was destroyed, Cheng Hongguang had no power to counterattack, not expecting that there was still Power of Origin that could be detonated.

He waved a ball of flame onto the ground. Cheng Hongguang's bones were non-existent after the self-destruction, but there was still quite a bit of blood scattered around.

Within the Undying Flame, this blood converged and began to regenerate.

Flesh regenerated, and the soul was reorganized.

Lin Moyu watched this scene. "The Mysterious Master once said that if the Undying Golden Body is practiced to the limit, one can regenerate from a drop of blood and is very hard to kill."

"I wonder if the Undying Golden Body at the Heavenly Venerable Realm is enough."

"If I had this ability, it would be much safer."

Cheng Hongguang regenerated from a drop of blood in the Undying Flame and became a Revenant.

He looked at Lin Moyu with a complex gaze, seemingly wanting to struggle, but under the suppression of the spell, his eyes gradually became pious, and finally, he knelt respectfully before Lin Moyu.

Lin Moyu looked at him, the flames of gossip burning brightly. "Tell me, what exactly is going on between you and the Lin family of Cliff City?"

Chapter 2048: A Dangerous World

Cheng Hongguang, originally Cheng Hongguang, was an ordinary disciple of the Cheng family in Cliff City.

Years ago, the Cheng family accidentally obtained a treasure, which became known to the Lin family, who came to force a purchase.

The Lin family of Cliff City was very overbearing. The Cheng family had no choice but to submit and sold the treasure to the Lin family.

The law of the jungle on the Origin Continent is this naked; everything is decided by one's fists.

Originally, this matter should have ended there. Although the Cheng family lost the treasure, they received some compensation. Since they were not as powerful, they had to swallow this insult.

Unexpectedly, on the night of the transaction, the Lin family returned and slaughtered the entire Cheng family.

Cheng Hongguang was not at home at the time and luckily escaped the disaster.

At that time, he was just a minor Supreme and did not dare to return to the Cheng family. He was afraid that someone from the Lin family was lying in ambush there, intending to cut weeds and eliminate the roots.

Relying on a Karmic treasure he obtained during an expedition, he severed all karma between himself and the Lin family, and by this, he also disconnected his bloodline, preventing the Lin family from tracking him through his bloodline.

In this way, he was safe. Likewise, he could not judge who was related to the Lin family through karma.

After all, there are too many people surnamed Lin. At that time, he made a decision: all geniuses surnamed Lin were his enemies.

Later, he became a Heavenly Venerable and secretly returned to the Cheng family. He found that the Cheng family was still a wasteland. It seemed that because of fear of the Lin family, no one dared to occupy the place where the Cheng family once stood.

Inside the Cheng family, resentment soared to the heavens, and the wronged souls could not dissipate.

Cheng Hongguang refined all this resentment and took it into his own Rule World, beginning his path of revenge.

Over the years, he has killed many cultivators surnamed Lin. Regardless of whether they were from the Lin family, as long as they were surnamed Lin and had good cultivation talent, he slaughtered them all.

Truly preferring to kill the innocent rather than let one go.

After hearing this, Lin Moyu couldn't help but sigh. Preferring to kill the innocent rather than let one go—it's really impossible to say who is right and who is wrong.

However, he knew that Cheng Hongguang had actually fallen into his own obsession. Unless there was some great opportunity, it would be impossible to break through to the Dao Venerable Realm in this lifetime.

Without reaching the Dao Venerable Realm, wanting to take revenge on the Lin family is a fantasy.

Even if he became a Dao Venerable, it would likely be difficult to confront a behemoth like the Lin family.

Being able to stand for millions of years without falling, the foundation of the Lin family is unimaginable; how could they not have Dao Venerables?

Lin Moyu said, "Alright, now you don't need to take revenge anymore. The feud between the Lin family and the Cheng family ends here."

"According to what you said, the Lin family is so forceful and overbearing; perhaps one day, they will be destroyed by others."

"They are very strong, but not the strongest!"

It had indeed ended. Cheng Hongguang became a Revenant and turned into Lin Moyu's henchman; it was impossible for him to go and seek revenge on the Lin family again.

The Lin family has many enemies; who knows, they might be wiped out by someone one day.

As for things like karma, who can really explain it clearly?

For Lin Moyu, this battle was over, and what followed was the harvest.

Cheng Hongguang's storage ring became Lin Moyu's war trophy. After Lin Moyu checked it, a look of joy couldn't help but appear on his face.

After all, he was a High-level Heavenly Venerable; there were indeed many good things.

Inside, there were over a hundred origin crystals, most of which were first or second-tier, along with several fourth and fifth-tier origin crystals.

Besides that, there were quite a few various materials, though they looked somewhat ordinary.

Most importantly, there were two fish bones inside.

Cheng Hongguang had also obtained two fish bones. With his strength, obtaining fish bones was not surprising, but now, he had become Lin Moyu's war trophy.

In the storage ring, Lin Moyu did not find the boundary sea token.

Lin Moyu recalled that it seemed the boundary sea token disappeared when Cheng Hongguang died.

Through Cheng Hongguang's mouth, Lin Moyu somewhat understood the situation of this space.

In the sky here, there is a peculiar wind that can kill people invisibly.

Even with Cheng Hongguang's ability, if he were blown by this wind, he would be injured.

Therefore, one cannot fly here.

And on the land, there should also be dangers, but like Lin Moyu, Cheng Hongguang had not been here long and had not explored it yet.

Lin Moyu's decision did not change. He still did not want to go in and explore, deciding to wait here until the boundary sea token was restored and then leave.

The sky gradually darkened, as if night was falling. The sound of waves rang in his ears, and the sound gradually became urgent.

Lin Moyu discovered that the waves had changed, becoming urgent, and their power was getting stronger and stronger.

Bang!

Amidst the roar, a huge wave slammed against the reefs, sending water splashing everywhere. The reefs were shattered on the spot. Lin Moyu's expression changed slightly; the power of the huge wave was much stronger than before. One wave smashed countless reefs.

This power was not much worse than a strike from a High-level Heavenly Venerable.

"No, if the power of the huge wave is this great, the reefs would have been flattened long ago."

"But there are still many reefs here!"

Looking at the messy reefs, Lin Moyu felt something was wrong.

A few breaths later, another roar sounded. A monstrous wave, tens of thousands of meters high, rose from the ocean, coming over and covering the sky.

"Holy crap!" Lin Moyu let out a strange cry and, without thinking, sprinted toward the inland.

What was coming was not just the huge wave, but also countless stones.

Inside the tens of thousands of meters high wave, it carried countless giant rocks, which fell down like raindrops.

Lin Moyu finally understood why there were so many reefs.

It was really just that one batch was smashed, and another batch was delivered.

He didn't want to use the reefs to test the strength of his physical body; running away was the best policy.

Escaping tens of thousands of meters in an instant, far away from the shore, Lin Moyu finally breathed a sigh of relief.

The huge wave fell, slamming heavily onto the shore along with the reefs.

The earth shook violently, and the roaring did not stop. An invisible shockwave spread, sweeping past Lin Moyu at an astonishing speed. Lin Moyu had no power to resist and was sent flying by the impact.

The Undying Golden Body shattered as if it were made of paper. Lin Moyu felt as if he had been hit by an ancient beast, and his body was sent flying backward uncontrollably.

He tried hard to stabilize his figure, but the force was simply too great, and his body was difficult to control.

At this moment, a breeze blew over and blew into his body.

His physical body turned into powder in the breeze.

The breeze blew onto the Rule World, wanting to extinguish the entire Rule World.

The World Tree swayed wildly, supporting the Rule World.

The ten-colored dragon soul crystal also spewed out bursts of Dragon Breath, providing power to the Rule World.

Fortunately, the breeze was just a small gust, lasting no more than two seconds before it disappeared. Amidst the powder filling the sky, purple light flickered, and Lin Moyu completed the reconstruction of his physical body and was resurrected again.

"That was terrifying!" Lin Moyu put on his clothes immediately and continued to retreat.

Rocks fell like meteors, accompanied by the huge waves, and shockwaves came one after another.

He experienced the danger; in this situation, even a High-stage Supreme would be very uncomfortable and might be directly smashed to death.

The breeze in the sky was even more terrifying; just a light blow like that almost caused him to die and disappear.

Lin Moyu had lingering fears and stayed far away from the shore.

This shore could not be stayed on. With less than nine days left, he needed to find a safe location.

At this time, he was already one hundred thousand meters away from the shore, located on a vast green grassland. The grass was of varying heights; high places could exceed one meter, while low places were less than a palm's length.

Looking into the distance, he could vaguely see mountains and forests.

The surroundings were slightly empty, and Lin Moyu had an instinctive feeling that in such an empty place, it was not safe.

But heading to other places would also be dangerous.

Just as this thought arose, a warning suddenly came from his soul: danger was descending again.

A powerful aura came from the air, and a black dot appeared in the distance. The black dot was extremely fast and quickly magnified in his sight.

"A High-level Heavenly Venerable Realm eagle!"

"But this eagle is a bit strange!"

Lin Moyu thought to himself, his body suddenly lowered, and he found a patch of grass half a person high and shrank into it.
