They had their eyes on that treasure of the Azure Dragon and even fought a few battles over it, but the Azure Dragon’s strength was so great that it repelled them all.

Lin Moyu said, "Perhaps it is this treasure that caused the world, which should have shattered, to instead undergo a slow collapse."

The Azure Dragon's corpse was also able to be preserved. The hongmeng gem said, "That must be it. There are many materials within the Wall of Heaven and Earth."

"But the number of treasures is not large; they only appear occasionally. The Azure Dragon could be considered lucky."

Lin Moyu said, "Do you think there is a possibility that this treasure still exists?" The hongmeng gem replied, "I remember that at the time, to avoid subsequent trouble, the Azure Dragon…"

"…fused the treasure into the world core. If it still exists, we can only check inside the world core." Lin Moyu nodded. "I have another idea."

"Can I resurrect him?" "No," the hongmeng gem said, resolute and absolutely certain.

It dismissed Lin Moyu's idea. Lin Moyu said, "Tell me your reasons." The hongmeng gem replied, "It is not that you, Master, lack the ability to resurrect him."

"But rather, what would happen after resurrecting him? He is a Supreme Expert. A Supreme Expert and their own world are already bound together."

"They cannot be separated under any circumstances. Furthermore, unless a Supreme Expert intends to invade and occupy another world…"

"…they cannot forcibly enter, as it would cause the world to collapse prematurely. This world is already dead. If we forcibly resurrect the Azure Dragon, the dead world would be unable to withstand the Azure Dragon's power, leading to an accelerated collapse."

"The Azure Dragon would still die. Even with your techniques, Master, it is impossible to bring him back to life again."

"Moreover, once this accelerated collapse occurs, Master, you might never find the way back."

The hongmeng gem explained its reasons in detail. Several reasons did not support Lin Moyu doing so; it wasn't that he couldn't resurrect him, but that there would be many troubles after doing so.

It would be better not to resurrect him. He had originally thought he might be able to have an additional Supreme Expert subordinate, but now it seemed completely impossible.

"Then let's forget it." Lin Moyu dismissed the thought. It truly could not be resurrected.

Resurrecting him might be digging his own grave. The hongmeng gem looked at the Azure Dragon's corpse and pointed into the distance.

"Master, there is something there." Lin Moyu immediately flew in the direction the hongmeng gem was pointing.

The Azure Dragon's corpse had turned into a mountain range, winding through the world, stretching for tens of millions of miles. The direction the hongmeng gem pointed…

"…was exactly where the Azure Dragon's tail was located. The Azure Dragon's tail was also incredibly huge, with most of it buried deep underground."

Only an insignificant tip was on the surface. Lin Moyu arrived at the spot indicated by the hongmeng gem, but at first glance, he discovered nothing.

However, looking closely, he discovered a tiny crack where the tip of the Azure Dragon's tail entered the ground.

The crack was only tiny relative to the Azure Dragon's massive size; in reality, the crack was over a kilometer in diameter, already a large canyon.

The hongmeng gem said, "That thing is at the deepest part of the tail." Lin Moyu flew into the crack and continued downward. Compared to the Azure Dragon's massive tail…

"…Lin Moyu was as tiny as dust. Although the Azure Dragon had turned into a corpse, the scales on its body still retained a metallic luster."

This crack looked as if it had been smashed out when the tail landed, but looking closely, there seemed to be traces of human activity. Someone had been here.

Lin Moyu thought to himself. As he delved deeper, the traces of human activity became more and more obvious.

Lin Moyu was now certain that someone had indeed been here, but it had been many years, so it shouldn't have been left by Great Venerable Jiuyue.

Gradually, Lin Moyu felt a trace of an unusual aura. The Azure Dragon's corpse did not leak any aura; it had completely perished along with the shattering of the world.

Even the aura of its entire body had completely vanished, leaving only a silhouette.

But now, Lin Moyu felt a trace of a different aura: the qi of heavens beginning. Lin Moyu was somewhat surprised in his heart; although this aura was weak…

"…he could still distinguish that it was the qi of heavens beginning. The fact that the qi of heavens beginning existed here…"

"…could not help but be surprising." Next, Lin Moyu felt a second, different kind of aura.

It was an aura from the Chaos Ancient Wilderness. Lin Moyu's heart stirred; he was afraid he had found the corpses that the Chaos Desolate Ox wanted him to retrieve.

Finally, he arrived at the deepest part and entered a huge cavern, where he saw a pool of clear water. The clear water formed a small pool.

In the center of the pool, a person sat cross-legged, and a cow lay by the side of the pool.

Both the person and the cow were corpses. These two corpses were exactly the ones the Chaos Desolate Ox wanted him to bring back.

Chapter 4656: Venerable Tianming and the Eternal Desolate Ox

The person in the pool seemed to be meditating, and the cow by the pool was kneeling on the ground, seemingly drinking the water in the pool.

The water in the pool was formed from the qi of heavens beginning. The hongmeng gem said, "They are using the qi of heavens beginning to temper their physical bodies. They look dead, but their physical bodies are actually still alive."

"After countless years of tempering by the qi of heavens beginning, their physical bodies are already very strong, only a little bit inferior to yours, Master."

"The qi of heavens beginning here is not ordinary qi of heavens beginning; it is the qi of heavens beginning that leaked out from the Azure Dragon's corpse after it died."

"It contains a trace of the Azure Dragon's power, so its effect is stronger than ordinary qi of heavens beginning." Lin Moyu whispered, "Who are they?"

"Why are they here?" Chaos Child suddenly exclaimed, "How could it be him?" Lin Moyu asked, "You know?"

Chaos Child automatically flew out and circled the cow corpse. "He is the Eternal Desolate Ox."

"The Eternal Desolate Ox, who was once ranked third in the ancient era, known as the Eternal Desolate Ox with invincible defense."

But this cow corpse looked just like an ordinary cow; there was no sign of the Eternal Desolate Ox at all.

In Lin Moyu's understanding, the Eternal Desolate Ox should be huge in size; after all, according to the rules of the Chaos Ancient Wilderness…

"…the larger the size, the stronger the strength. The Eternal Desolate Ox could rank third, so its size should be incredibly huge."

"This Eternal Desolate Ox is a bit small," Lin Moyu said involuntarily. Chaos Child said, "The Eternal Desolate Ox can be big or small."

"When big, it can be a million miles; when small, it is less than ten meters. When it becomes small…"

"…that is also its strongest defensive posture. When it is only ten meters in size, all laws cannot invade it, and no one can even touch a hair on it."

Ten meters? But the cow corpse in front of him was at most five meters.

The hongmeng gem said, "Chaos Child is right. This guy's physical body is very strong, even stronger than the person in the pool."

"It is a bit stronger." Lin Moyu used himself as a standard to quantify the strength of the physical body.

If his own physical body was 100, then the physical body of the person in the pool was 80, while the physical body of the Eternal Desolate Ox by the pool…

"…was nearly 90. As for other Great Venerables, their physical bodies were at most around 60 to 70, and the gap was even larger."

The Eternal Desolate Ox's corpse was here, and the Chaos Desolate Ox wanted him to bring the corpse back. So…

"…what was the relationship between the Chaos Desolate Ox and the Eternal Desolate Ox? The two seemed to have many similarities."

He had once thought that the Chaos Desolate Ox might possess the bloodline of the Eternal Desolate Ox.

Now it seemed that it was not that simple. Lin Moyu felt the passage of time from the corpse, although he could not be completely certain of the time.

He could only roughly feel that the time when the Eternal Desolate Ox fell should be during the second Great Tribulation.

So the question arose: since it had already fallen, how did it come here? This should be related to the person sitting in the pool. And who was the person in the pool?

To be precise, who was the corpse in the pool? The hongmeng gem looked carefully for a while and whispered, "Master."

"There is an aura of destiny on his body." Destiny! Lin Moyu suddenly understood. The things he couldn't figure out before…

"…were suddenly all clear. The person in the pool was Venerable Tianming." He was almost 80% sure.

He confirmed the identity of the other party. As far as he knew, at that time, Venerable Tianming had calculated the future and calculated his own appearance.

He allowed Great Venerable Tianzai and others to make arrangements, and he also suffered backlash because of it, choosing to disintegrate and reincarnate.

After that, there was no news. In fact, his disintegration and reincarnation was just something spread by himself.

No one knew whether he had really disintegrated and reincarnated. In short, he never appeared again later, and everyone regarded him as…

"…having disintegrated." Now it seemed that this was not the case; Venerable Tianming had not truly disintegrated, but had come here.

He calculated his own destiny and perhaps discovered something, so he used the name of disintegration to escape.

He brought the Eternal Desolate Ox's corpse here, found the Azure Dragon's corpse, and utilized the qi of heavens beginning left behind by the Azure Dragon.

He improved his physical strength. Now, the Great Tribulation of the world has risen again.

He needed to retrieve his physical body, and since he couldn't come over, he asked him to come and bring the corpse back. Why did he think he could do it? It must also have been calculated through destiny.

Therefore, Venerable Tianming was not dead, and his soul was still in the Chaos Ancient Wilderness.

As for where it was, the answer was already obvious: his soul was on the Chaos Desolate Ox, and the Chaos Desolate Ox was the reincarnation of the Eternal Desolate Ox.

This time, he brought back two corpses, which were actually their physical bodies. Once they had their physical bodies, the Eternal Desolate Ox could reappear.

Venerable Tianming's strength would also be far superior to before. In this way…

"…they would have a chance to survive in the Great Tribulation of the world." This was the answer he had obtained by guessing.

Although it might not be entirely correct, it was definitely not far off. Lin Moyu was a bit curious about what the future that Venerable Tianming had exhausted all his efforts to deduce back then looked like.

He must have had many other things he didn't tell Great Venerable Tianzai, otherwise, he wouldn't have made such plans.

But regardless, for the sake of the pocang crystal, he first had to take these two guys back. He took out the stone tower, and the stone tower automatically emitted a faint light.

It quickly grew larger, and two beams of light enveloped the corpses of the Eternal Desolate Ox and Venerable Tianming.

It sucked them into the tower. The whole process was very smooth. After taking away the corpses, Lin Moyu retracted the stone tower.

Then, with a wave of his hand, his hand acted like a knife, cutting through the ground.

After a few strikes, he dug out a large pit and completely cut out the pool formed by the qi of heavens beginning.

He took the pool away, preparing to give it to the Chaos Desolate Ox together. It could be considered benevolent, after all, he still had some questions at that time.

It would be convenient to ask only if he had a good relationship with the Chaos Desolate Ox. After putting away the corpses…

"…Lin Moyu got up and left, not lingering." The Azure Dragon's corpse could be looked at but not used.

It was better to just leave; out of sight, out of mind. The first task had been completed, and now he should do the second task.

Find Great Venerable Jiuyue. The first task went smoothly, with almost no twists and turns.

It just took a little time. The Undead Spirit Soldiers were still exploring the world. Half a year of exploration had still not reached the boundary of the world.

He had not found Great Venerable Jiuyue, nor had he found the world core. As the range expanded, the number of Undead Spirit Soldiers Lin Moyu had released…

"…had reached 500 billion." If it were someone like Great Venerable Jiuyue alone, I am afraid that even if given another 100,000 years…

"…she would not be able to explore the entire world." After all, this was not the Chaos Ancient Wilderness.

The rules were different; she could not use the rules of the world to perceive. Lin Moyu explored patiently. Fortunately, he was not without anything to do.

He had been studying the formations left behind by the Dragon World. Combining the formations of different worlds, Lin Moyu's understanding of formations…

"…took another step forward." He began to no longer be limited to the Chaos Ancient Wilderness, and his understanding of formations began to transcend the world.

Although it was still just a vague feeling now, Lin Moyu believed that as long as he continued…

"…sooner or later, his formations would be able to transcend the world." Finally…

"…three years later, the Undead Spirit Soldiers sent back new news." They had discovered the traces of Great Venerable Jiuyue. It was a palm print with a diameter of about a kilometer.

The palm print landed on the ground, causing the ground to sink by more than a hundred meters. A hundred meters was nothing, and the power was not strong.

There were some patterns on the palm print that had been hit out of the ground, and one could vaguely distinguish that they were nine bright moons. Finally…

"…there were some clues."

Chapter 4657: The Power of the Life Forbidden Zone

Lin Moyu sighed softly.

The appearance of the palm print meant that Great Venerable Jiuyue would not be too far away. This palm print had not been left for long, no more than ten years.

She should be in the vicinity. At the same time, it also meant that Great Venerable Jiuyue was still alive and well, at least she still had some strength.

The hongmeng gem said, "Master, don't you find it strange? There is no danger here. Why would she leave a palm print on the ground?" Indeed.

There were no living beings here, and it was completely safe. Why would she leave a palm print? A Great Venerable would not do boring things.

There must be a reason for leaving the palm print. Moreover, Great Venerable Jiuyue was a soul clone.

It was difficult to replenish soul power here, so every bit used was a bit less. In a situation where there was no danger and soul power needed to be saved…

"…why would she still leave this kilometer-sized palm print?" Why? The only explanation Lin Moyu could think of…

"…was that it was for directions." To prevent herself from getting lost, she left the palm print as a road sign.

A Great Venerable actually worrying about getting lost sounded a bit funny, but such a situation could indeed happen here.

In many places here, the rules were chaotic. External Great Venerables could not find the correct route through the chaotic rules at all.

Getting lost was a normal thing, so road signs were needed. But where did this palm print point to?
