The number of Undead Servants released by Lin Moyu was truly too great; they densely occupied a large area of space, as if they were going to fill this Shattered Glazed World.
An Yuyan really couldn't help but ask, "How many puppets do you actually have?"
She did not want to pry into Lin Moyu's secrets, so she had never asked before. In truth, An Yuyan had always held curiosity about the Undead Servants. Not only were the Undead Servants numerous, but they could also utilize various Great Daos, possessed their own independent Great Daos, and would improve as Lin Moyu's realm improved. Such puppets were unheard of to An Yuyan.
Lin Moyu shook his head, "They are not puppets." As expected! An Yuyan's heart skipped a beat. It was just as she had guessed; they were indeed not puppets.
She did not continue to press the matter, as asking further would be impolite, and Lin Moyu had no hard feelings. "They were summoned by me and are also my comrades-in-arms. Without them, it would have been very difficult for me to reach this step." An Yuyan chuckled, "If you say that, we people will be too ashamed to show our faces." An Yuyan knew very well how strong Lin Moyu's own combat power was. Although everyone was Eternal, Lin Moyu could take them all on by himself, and that was even without relying on his Undead Servants.
The two chatted while drinking tea. Soon, the seventh halo was lit, followed by the eighth halo. The Undead Servants fully mobilized the power of the Great Dao to pour into it, and Lin Moyu also urged the great dao source qi to speed up the process of lighting the halos. Every few days, he had to stop his Gather Power technique and wait for half a day before using it again. As a rule manager, the Soulless Beast had certain privileges; he could help Lin Moyu delay time, but he could not change the rules. Fifty days later, the eighth halo lit up.
Next was the ninth halo. Previously, Lin Moyu had spent a great deal of time to light the ninth halo, but this time, it would not require so much time. Lin Moyu calculated that three hundred days would be enough; it wouldn't even take a year. An Yuyan was somewhat curious about how the tenth halo would be lit, but she did not ask. She would see when the time came. Amidst their casual chat, the ninth halo was finally completely lit.
Then came the tenth halo. Lin Moyu put away his Gather Power technique at this moment, and his realm returned to the Eternal level. Above his palm, a grayish-white force alternated, forming a yin-yang sphere, and the Undying Great Dao condensed in his palm. It was constantly compressed, becoming stronger and stronger. At the same time, Lin Moyu explained, "Actually, the method to light the tenth ring is very simple. It requires an extreme force that has changed its nature, which is what I mentioned before: when things reach an extreme, they reverse."
Under normal circumstances, only a Lord of the Great Dao would begin to touch this level of power. After all, those below a Lord of the Great Dao cannot drive all the power of the Great Dao, cannot achieve purity, and naturally cannot realize the reversal of extremes. But the reality is that even if a certain Lord of the Great Dao comprehends the reversal of extremes and transforms their own Great Dao power, they would still be unable to truly light the tenth ring because the quantity would be insufficient. Therefore, within the Domain, one must be at least at the Eternal level to be able to light the tenth ring. There is one other exception: that is to borrow an appropriate formation. Unfortunately, very few people can set up such a formation. While explaining, the two forces of life and death in Lin Moyu's hands were compressed to the extreme.
Then, they served as catalysts for each other and began to cross the extreme. Lin Moyu had ample experience with this kind of thing, and it was already at the level of being effortless for him. The whole process was filled with a sense of naturalness, and An Yuyan could clearly feel the changes in the power of the Great Dao. After the Undying Great Dao controlled by Lin Moyu completed the reversal of extremes, the two forces became each other, and both were improved. However, they still maintained a balance. Lin Moyu threw the sublimated Great Dao power over and integrated it into the tenth halo. The gate shook violently, absorbing the Great Dao power completely, and the entire halo suddenly lit up. But it only lit up a section before it began to dim again. Lin Moyu continuously condensed the Great Dao power, causing the Great Dao power to sublimate continuously. He threw the newly sublimated Great Dao power to the gate, and the halo gradually brightened.
However, the brightening speed was very slow. After Lin Moyu tried for a while and fully adapted, a large number of Divine Talismans suddenly flew from his fingertips. The Divine Talismans formed a formation that was not large in scale but was extremely profound. An Yuyan could not understand the mysteries within the formation. The Undying Great Dao appeared in the air, and the power of the Great Dao poured down. Falling into the formation, the formation automatically operated, presenting gray and white colors, and a yin-yang bagua diagram appeared on the surface of the formation. Whether in the region of the Power of Life or the Power of Death, there was the existence of the other force, forming a wonderful pattern of you within me, and me within you. An Yuyan looked at the yin-yang bagua diagram, deep in thought.
Although she no longer hoped for the final step, she was, at any rate, an Eternal Existence, and her understanding of the Great Dao had reached its peak. When she saw the yin-yang diagram, An Yuyan developed some new understandings of her own Great Dao in her heart. The formation continuously compressed the Great Dao power. After reaching the limit, the formation suddenly reversed, breaking the balance. The two forces in the yin-yang diagram stimulated each other, completing a reversal jump. The power after the formation reversed again was injected into the gate to light the tenth halo. The formation operated fully automatically, completely without needing Lin Moyu's interference. The only drawback was that the power of a single conversion was not as much as when Lin Moyu did it himself, but this problem was easy to solve. After Lin Moyu confirmed that the formation was effective, he began to set up the second and third ones. In just a few days, thousands of formations had taken shape.
They continuously drew in the power of the Undying Great Dao, sending waves of reversed power into the gate. At the current speed, at most in a thousand days, the tenth halo would be completely lit, and at that time, this mysterious gate would also be opened in a perfect state for the first time. An Yuyan was somewhat fascinated watching these formations; she gained a lot of insights from the constant transformation of power. She faintly touched upon where the limit of her own Dao of Karma was, and what the power after the reversal was. This was something she had always been pursuing, but there had never been an answer. This answer could only be found by herself; outsiders could not help. Seeing An Yuyan immersed in this, Lin Moyu did not go to disturb her. With a thought, he summoned the Soulless Beast and opened the Domain gate, "I will go again."
Lin Moyu left behind a large number of Undead Servants to guard this place to prevent outsiders from coming to disturb. From beginning to end, he was in a state of multitasking. In the Domain Core, another thousand Divine Talismans were refined by him. Now he had to choose another thousand Divine Talismans. For him, the trouble in the Domain Core was the real big trouble, even more so than this mysterious gate.
Chapter 4196: Big Sis, stop playing. There were countless Divine Talismans in the Domain Core. Lin Moyu had refined two thousand Divine Talismans, which was just a drop in the ocean for the entire Domain Core, but Lin Moyu was not in a hurry. He just ate away at it bit by bit, like a spring rain, moistening things silently. Time and time again, unknowingly, he would be able to refine most of the Divine Talismans in the entire Domain Core. Once he reached that level, he would be able to control the Domain Core, and becoming the Lord of the Realm would be a matter of course.
Selecting another thousand Divine Talismans, Lin Moyu left his soul clone among them. He could now feel a subtle connection between himself and the Domain Core. Although this connection was very weak, it was real. This feeling was very good. Lin Moyu knew that his plan was no problem and was moving towards success bit by bit. Returning from the Domain Core, he found that An Yuyan was still immersed in the comprehension of the Great Dao, so Lin Moyu did not disturb her. He drank tea by himself, appreciating An Yuyan's beautiful appearance. An Yuyan sometimes frowned, sometimes showed a little joy, and her expression kept changing. She was very relaxed. Obviously, she felt very safe here, which also indicated that An Yuyan trusted him completely.
The tenth halo was gradually lighting up. About five hundred days later, An Yuyan let out a soft moan. A huge aura suddenly rose from her body, and the Dao of Karma naturally emerged. Countless causal cycles appeared in the Great Dao. The Dao of Karma evolved infinitely; all things in the world have causes before they have effects, and where there are effects, there must be causes, interpreting the ultimate principles of the Great Dao. At this time, An Yuyan gave a low shout, "Effect without cause!" In an instant, the Dao of Karma changed drastically, and the causal cycle was broken. The cause within the cause and effect was erased by an extremely powerful force, leaving only the effect. This kind of change was very extreme. It completely violated the essence of the Dao of Karma and completely transcended the Dao of Karma. When something in the world was destined to have an effect, but it happened without a cause, this point was quite terrifying.
Completely violating cause and effect, violating the rules of heaven and earth, Lin Moyu saw it in his eyes. He faintly felt that this power could not be used casually, and there would likely be a strong backlash. He suddenly thought of the cause-seeking ring. The cause-seeking ring followed the Dao of Karma, but the backlash was extremely astonishing. Previously, Lin Moyu thought that the cause-seeking ring drove the power of karma belonging to outside the Domain. Now that he thought about it, it seemed that was not the case. The cause-seeking ring seemed to determine the effect first, regardless of the cause, so it would produce a strong backlash. This was a punishment from the rules, using punishment to replace the cause. In this way, it also meant that although An Yuyan had comprehended the effect without cause, it was difficult to use this power that transcended the extreme and was completely unreasonable. Once used, the backlash that needed to be endured was not something the current An Yuyan could bear. Unless she could go a step further and become a Transcendent, perhaps she could barely use the effect without cause.
The Dao of Karma gradually faded, and An Yuyan slowly opened her eyes, seeing Lin Moyu with a smile on his face. "Congratulations." An Yuyan was also very happy, "If not for Fellow Daoist Lin's help, Yuyan would find it difficult to comprehend." Lin Moyu shook his head, "This is an opportunity that belongs to you. Just like the Dao of Karma, this effect is destined to happen; it is just a matter of time." An Yuyan's voice became soft, "I originally held no expectations for anything above Eternal, but I did not expect to meet Fellow Daoist Lin. It seems everything has changed. I glimpsed a secret from the Dao of Karma; it is because of Fellow Daoist Lin's appearance that my future has changed. Therefore…" Before she finished speaking, her expression suddenly changed. Lin Moyu's expression also changed abruptly at the same time, and his heart was surging with uneasiness. Bursts of palpitations rushed into his soul. Lin Moyu looked up sharply and saw a sword light falling overwhelmingly. The sword light was incomparably powerful; wherever it passed, the void shattered, and the World Mist was evaporated. In his eyes, the rules of heaven and earth could not block the sword light and were crushed into fragments. This sword was the only one Lin Moyu had ever seen in his life; it had already transcended the rules of heaven and earth and did not belong to this world. Transcendent! Lin Moyu's first reaction was that this sword came from a Transcendent, but how could a Transcendent exist in heaven and earth? Why would a Transcendent strike at him? Gather Power! He instinctively used Gather Power. He wanted to break through the limit in an instant and reach transcendence as well. Only transcendence could counter transcendence. But the Gather Power technique, which was always effective, died down at this moment. It was not just himself; the Undead Servants were also motionless at this moment, having no feeling. The sword light contained huge power, suppressing heaven and earth, cutting off time, and the time belonging to Lin Moyu was crushed. His technique did not fail, and the Undead Servants did not lack feeling, but under the shroud of the sword light, his soul and body were detached from time and space. Is this the power of a Transcendent? Lin Moyu was shocked in his heart. He had briefly stepped into transcendence and briefly experienced the power of the Transcendent level, but this was obviously far from enough. His understanding of transcendence was far from sufficient. All these thoughts happened in an instant.
