Reaching one’s true limit—Lin Moyu understood this phrase perfectly.

Every cultivator has their own limit, which is composed of various factors such as state of mind, soul, physical body, and comprehension of the Great Dao.

Under normal circumstances, no one knows where their true limit lies, and it is equally difficult to truly reach it.

If this limit exceeds seven Dao Patterns but is still a little short of eight, then if one were to condense them on their own, seven Dao Patterns would basically be the end of it.

But if combined with the Great Dao reward, one could condense eight Dao Patterns, because eight Dao Patterns is the true limit.

Slightly exceeding it a little won't affect anything.

Once a sufficiently solid foundation is laid, future achievements will become stronger and stronger.

Lin Moyu could break into the Dao Venerable Realm at any time; his foundation was already thick enough, and six Dao Patterns wouldn't be considered bad even in that era.

Lin Moyu said, "If I can kill him, I can request to condense Dao Patterns from the Great Dao reward. I wonder how many I can condense?"

The old man narrowed his eyes. "If you can really kill him, with your current cultivation level, you could condense all your Dao Patterns. Someone once did this; he went from six Dao Patterns to eight."

Lin Moyu asked, "Is eight Dao Patterns the limit?"

The old man shook his head. "No, nine is the limit. But very few people can condense nine; those who did all became Dao Lords."

"Do you want to become a Dao Lord? But that depends on talent and fate. Sometimes, no matter how hard you try, it's useless."

Lin Moyu said, "This junior has condensed six Dao Patterns and feels there is still spare energy. Perhaps I can give it a try."

The old man nodded. "You can try. This old man can tell that your talent is extraordinary, and you are young with enough time to attempt it."

"Even if you fail, it doesn't matter; it won't have any impact."

"Remember, when you reach the Ninth Realm of Dao Venerable, come back and help this old man kill him."

Lin Moyu said, "This junior wants to kill him now."

The old man thought Lin Moyu was joking. "This old man wants to as well, but I cannot do it."

Lin Moyu said, "This junior wants to try."

As he spoke, Lin Moyu flew toward the Outer Domain Celestial God. The old man did not stop him, only watching silently.

When he was a hundred meters away from the Outer Domain Celestial God, he was blocked by an invisible force; he could not pass.

The Outer Domain Celestial God was emitting a faint light, and waves of invisible power surged out, firmly blocking Lin Moyu on the outside.

The old man's voice came over, "This is its protective divine light. Without reaching the Dao Venerable 7th Realm, you cannot break through it."

Lin Moyu said, "Can you help me?"

The old man shook his head. "I can only trap it, making it lose consciousness and unable to move; I cannot do anything else."

"Even if you use the Great Dao of Luck, you cannot kill him; the difference between you is too great."

The meaning behind his words was: you can't even get close, so don't think about killing him.

The old man felt that Lin Moyu's idea was somewhat unrealistic.

Lin Moyu had his own ideas. After trying a few times and confirming he couldn't pass, he took a deep breath.

His eyes became firm, and Lin Moyu took out a great dao undying pill and threw it into his mouth.

The old man watched Lin Moyu take the medicine without any reaction, his eyes looking as if he were watching a play.

"A great dao undying pill; I didn't expect anyone to be able to refine a great dao undying pill nowadays. It must have been refined by that guy."

Over countless years, he had long forgotten what it meant to be anxious.

The old man didn't know why Lin Moyu wanted to take the great dao undying pill; the great dao undying pill could only ensure one wouldn't die within a certain period, but other than that, it was useless.

The next second, a strange power surged from Lin Moyu's body.

The old man was finally moved, his previous calmness disappearing.

"An Origin Technique! I didn't expect the little guy to actually master an Origin Technique!"

"Those in this world who can master an Origin Technique all eventually become Dao Lords. It seems this little guy's future achievements will be limitless."

Origin Technique: Gather Power!

The immense power of the Undead Legion concentrated onto Lin Moyu, and Lin Moyu's aura rose sharply, breaking through the barrier between the Heavenly Venerable and Dao Venerable Realms in an instant.

Lin Moyu stepped into the Dao Venerable Realm as naturally as drinking water and eating.

Afterward, his aura continued to rise rapidly—Dao Venerable 2nd Realm, 3rd Realm… climbing all the way, as if there were no limit.

The old man was moved, muttering to himself, "What a powerful Origin Technique, to be able to raise one's realm by so much."

"But this method of increasing power is too much for the physical body and soul to bear; no wonder he had to take the great dao undying pill."

"But simply raising one's realm is useless. Even if he raised it to the Ninth Realm of Dao Venerable, it would be useless; comprehension of the Great Dao does not increase with the increase in realm."

With his discernment, he could naturally tell that although Lin Moyu's realm had increased, his level of Great Dao comprehension had not.

Lin Moyu was forcing growth; he was simply raising his current realm.

In this way, although his power would increase, it was far inferior to a Dao Venerable who had truly cultivated step by step.

Even if Lin Moyu reached the Ninth Realm of Dao Venerable, his true combat power might not even be as good as a Dao Venerable 7th Realm.

The Great Dao of Luck would not increase with his realm, and he could not use the Great Dao of Luck to kill the Outer Domain Celestial God. The Dao of Strength was the same.

Lin Moyu naturally knew this. No matter how much his realm increased, no matter how much his combat power increased, he could not rely on his own strength to kill the Outer Domain Celestial God.

But what he wanted was the realm; with sufficient realm, he could break through the Outer Domain Celestial God's protective divine light and reach him.

His realm continued to rise steadily; the tens of billions of the Undead Legion gave Lin Moyu sufficiently strong power.

His realm broke through layer by layer, and in the blink of an eye, Lin Moyu's realm had reached the Dao Venerable 6th Realm.

Last time he fought Zhao Dongsheng, he also used the great dao undying pill, and he only broke through to the Dao Venerable 6th Realm.

But today is different from that day; today he is a peak Heavenly Venerable, much stronger than he was then. The Undead Legion is also much stronger, able to provide even more abundant power.

After pausing for a few seconds at the Dao Venerable 6th Realm, with a muffled sound, Lin Moyu's aura suddenly soared, rushing into the Dao Venerable 7th Realm.

There is only one realm difference between the 6th and 7th, yet there is a world of difference.

After rushing into the 7th Realm, the power of the Origin Technique also reached its limit and could not be raised further.

Lin Moyu tried to rush toward the Outer Domain Celestial God; immense power gushed out from his body, turning into a sharp sword to clear away obstacles for himself.

The protective divine light that had previously blocked him from advancing an inch could finally no longer stop Lin Moyu. Although his forward speed was very slow, he could at least get closer.

The protective divine light was like a quagmire; the resistance Lin Moyu received was immense, and his forward speed was very slow.

The Dao Venerable 7th Realm was just the baseline to break through the Outer Domain Celestial God's protective divine light; in the end, his power was still insufficient.

Lin Moyu was a little anxious; the duration of the great dao undying pill was only ten minutes, and he had to rush over within ten minutes.

Once the effect of the great dao undying pill passed, he would collapse immediately, and all his efforts would be in vain.

Lin Moyu used all his strength, clearing away the obstacles.

His blood and energy roared, turning into a pillar of smoke that shot straight into the sky.

Lin Moyu threw punch after punch, the Dao of Strength fused into his blood and energy, clearing a path for Lin Moyu.

The old man narrowed his eyes, watching this scene, the surprise in his eyes unable to be concealed.

The points displayed on Lin Moyu all shocked him beyond measure.

"An Origin Technique, the Great Dao of Luck, the Dao of Strength."

"Anyone who obtains one of these has the chance to become a Dao Lord, living forever in the world and standing proudly in the universe."

"These things are concentrated on one person, and his fate can actually withstand it. Could it be… is he the reincarnation of some Dao Lord?"

Any good thing, even if you can obtain it, you must have the fate to bear it. If your fate is not great enough, even if you obtain a good thing, you will encounter misfortune.

Fate is something that, except for a few people, no one can explain clearly.

However, seeing that Lin Moyu possessed so many good things and was still living so well, the old man knew that Lin Moyu's fate was extraordinary.

But he still didn't know why Lin Moyu wanted to risk his life to get close to the Outer Domain Celestial God.

Now he could only watch, unable to help at all.

What he told Lin Moyu was the truth; he had already used all his strength to trap the Outer Domain Celestial God and could not spare any more power.

In his eyes, Lin Moyu did not need to fight so hard.

Mastering an Origin Technique, plus the Dao of Strength and the Great Dao of Luck.

As long as Lin Moyu cultivated to the Dao Venerable 8th Realm himself, he would have a chance to kill the Outer Domain Celestial God.

Once he reached the Ninth Realm of Dao Venerable, he would be one hundred percent able to kill him. He could still afford to wait for that amount of time.

Time passed minute by minute, and Lin Moyu advanced with difficulty; the hundred-meter distance was like a chasm.

After nine minutes, he finally arrived in front of the Outer Domain Celestial God.

At this time, he could already clearly see the divine light flowing on the Outer Domain Celestial God.

The divine light gave him an illusion of being indestructible; beneath the divine light was the Outer Domain Celestial God's divine body, a divine body that could resist the Great Dao, indestructible.

Lin Moyu could sense the opponent's strength just by looking at it from a close distance.

Time was running out, so Lin Moyu didn't look much longer and took out the scepter of calamity.

The Eye of the Undead was activated, searching for the location of the opponent's soul.

A Soul Fire was beating in the chest of the Outer Domain Celestial God.

The location of the Outer Domain Celestial God's soul was different from that of the human race; it was not in the center of the eyebrows or the sea of consciousness, but in the chest.

Although the soul was in another world, the body was still the vessel for the soul, and there was a connection between them.

"It's up to you!" Lin Moyu raised the scepter of calamity and smashed it down fiercely.

The scepter of calamity was indestructible, and he believed that the scepter of calamity could definitely smash the Outer Domain Celestial God's divine body.

The moment Lin Moyu raised the scepter of calamity, the old man finally knew what Lin Moyu was going to do.

His gaze was fixed on the scepter of calamity. "This scepter, it seems I've seen it somewhere. Where was it? Why can't I remember?"

The old man was sure he had seen this scepter before and had an impression of it in his memory, but he couldn't remember it no matter what.

This feeling was very strange; as a powerhouse of the Great Dao Realm, he would actually have something he couldn't remember.

The scepter of calamity smashed heavily onto the Outer Domain Celestial God's chest, making a crisp sound.

The Outer Domain Celestial God's body suddenly lit up, and then, like shattered glass, countless cracks appeared.

The divine light shone brightly, seemingly wanting to repair the damage, but how could Lin Moyu give him a chance? He smashed down heavily a second time.

The divine body shattered with a bang, and the scepter of calamity took the opportunity to touch the Outer Domain Celestial God's physical body.

The physical body was ripped open, exploding on the spot.

Some of the flesh and blood touched the scepter of calamity, and the soul gem suddenly glowed, a terrifying power rushing out like a sharp blade stabbing into the Outer Domain Celestial God's soul.

Lin Moyu heard a sharp scream, a scream from the soul.

Under the Eye of the Undead, the Outer Domain Celestial God's Soul Fire deformed rapidly, and a large amount of soul power was drawn out.

The soul gem was like a water pump, drawing away the Outer Domain Celestial God's soul power.

The soul gem extracted the Outer Domain Celestial God's soul to replenish itself.

Lin Moyu was shocked. "Could it be that the soul gem needs to absorb the Outer Domain Celestial God's soul power?"

"No, what the soul gem wants is not the Outer Domain Celestial God's soul power; what it wants is the soul power of the Great Dao Realm."

"Not just the Outer Domain Celestial God, it can also absorb the soul power of other Great Dao Realm beings."

Being able to absorb the soul power of the Great Dao Realm is enough to show the high level of the soul gem; it is at least a treasure of the Great Dao Realm.

The Outer Domain Celestial God's scream from its soul was incomparably miserable. As the soul gem continuously extracted soul power, the screaming was gradually weakening.

In just a few seconds, the sound had become extremely faint.

The Outer Domain Celestial God's aura was already extremely weak; he had become an empty shell. Although he wasn't dead, it was not much different from being dead.

At this moment, the elemental gem, which had never made a move, suddenly started to move.

It emitted a cluster of purple-gold flames, directly igniting the Outer Domain Celestial God's physical body.

The Outer Domain Celestial God's powerful physical body vaporized rapidly in the purple-gold flames, not even leaving a speck of ash.

Lin Moyu noticed that although the Outer Domain Celestial God's physical body seemed to leave no ash behind, in fact, when it was burned away, the essence within the physical body had already been absorbed by the elemental gem.

The soul gem and the elemental gem, one extracting the soul, the other absorbing the essence of the physical body, coordinated perfectly.

In just two strikes, that Outer Domain Celestial God, which even a Great Dao Realm being found difficult to kill, was gone just like that.

Lin Moyu couldn't help but have a new understanding of the scepter of calamity.

He had previously thought he would need to smash it a few more times, but he didn't expect it to take only two strikes, and it was very easy.

The old man standing on the ground was very unsettled at this moment.

He didn't remember the origin of the scepter of calamity, but he recognized this purple-gold flame.

"Purple-gold Dao fire, the fire that burns the Dao… How could there be the fire that burns the Dao? What on earth is this thing!"
