This time, Lin Moyu did not blow them up one by one, but rather three Ancient Tree Kings at once. Amidst the roaring sounds…

The Ancient Tree Kings, who were already struggling to resist the Heaven and Earth Cold Seal, were suddenly dealt a fatal blow. They could not scream within the cold seal.

They could only meet their deaths in stifled frustration. Lin Moyu did not expend much effort to blow them up; it was much easier than before.

Lin Moyu said softly, "Having a handy and powerful magical treasure truly saves a lot of effort."

Fatty's expression was complicated at this moment. She not only felt that her master was a freak, but even the magical treasure he brought out was freakish.

The Heaven and Earth Cold Seal would last for a while. Lin Moyu manipulated the balance gem, carrying the light of balance as he walked toward the remaining areas.

Currently, more than half of the ancient trees had not been cleared, and there were still six Ancient Tree Kings left. Lin Moyu had just taken two steps.

Fatty suddenly shouted, "Master, watch out!"

A giant vine lashed down from the air. Lin Moyu only felt his vision go black, as if the entire world was pressing down on him. Fatty transformed into a giant and blocked in front of Lin Moyu.

With a loud bang, Fatty was sent flying backward while screaming, and the giant form collapsed.

Fatty disappeared, and the main body of the Domain Mountain and River Order was revealed. A huge crack had already appeared on the magical treasure.

It looked as if the magical treasure was about to shatter. Lin Moyu teleported to Fatty's side and took the Domain Mountain and River Order into his hand.

He breathed a sigh of relief after a slight check; it was heavily damaged, but fortunately, the core was not damaged.

The Domain Mountain and River Order had self-healing capabilities and would recover quickly. A shattering sound came from the air.

The sound of shattering became increasingly dense, and the space sealed by the cold air all around shattered with a crash. This strike not only heavily injured Fatty.

It also whipped away the Heaven and Earth Cold Seal, shattering the surrounding space. Lin Moyu looked toward the culprit.

Not far from the center, the Ancient Tree Emperor stood proudly, and a giant tree branch was slowly retracting.

It was the one who had attacked just now; it had actually woken up! Lin Moyu's gaze was fearless.

He roughly understood the Ancient Tree Emperor's intent: do not go looking for other ancient trees, otherwise, it would continue to attack.

Taking a deep breath, Lin Moyu walked toward the Ancient Tree Emperor. Sure enough, the Ancient Tree Emperor did not attack again.

The ancient forest that had not yet been destroyed seemed to fall into silence at this moment. Those ancient trees, as well as a few Ancient Tree Kings, had all received the order from the Ancient Tree Emperor.

They stopped moving. When Lin Moyu passed by the corpses of the Ancient Tree Kings, he waved his hand and collected their corpses.

At the same time, he had collected a large number of ancient tree corpses along the way. These were all weapons; regardless of whether they would be used or not, collecting them first would not be a mistake. Lin Moyu gradually headed toward the center of the ancient forest. The closer he got to the center, the more he could feel the power of the Ancient Tree Emperor.

Fatty slowly recovered and was finally able to transform again, appearing by Lin Moyu's side once more. She was very weak at this time and said softly, "Master."

"The Ancient Tree Emperor is very, very strong." Lin Moyu nodded. "It's fine. I can deal with it." Although Fatty knew that Lin Moyu had many means, she wasn't sure if he could really deal with the Ancient Tree Emperor.

Fatty was completely unsure. The strike just now was clearly just a probing strike from the Ancient Tree Emperor. The power was actually this strong; if it had been serious, she might have died in one hit.

The power of the Ancient Tree Emperor was completely different from before… She didn't know where Lin Moyu's confidence came from. Lin Moyu's confidence came from the cause-seeking ring. When he first entered the Tianxu Palace, he had used the cause-seeking ring to plant a fruit, ensuring he would definitely be able to come out safely. Lin Moyu had confidence in the cause-seeking ring.

He believed that he would definitely be able to return safely in the end, so facing the Ancient Tree Emperor, he was not afraid at all.

Gradually approaching the center, Lin Moyu saw the due boat clearly. The due boat was parked on the central spire, motionless, as if waiting for something. On the other side, the butler was also hiding in the mist of the Great Dao, also waiting for something. The things they were seeking seemed to be in the central spire.

It was just that they couldn't get in. To enter the central spire, one had to pass the test of the Ancient Tree Emperor. And the Ancient Tree Emperor was too strong. When he was still a kilometer away from the Ancient Tree Emperor, the ground shook.

The tree roots of the ancient tree slid across the ground like dragons, drawing a line in front of Lin Moyu. "Do not cross this line!" The Ancient Tree Emperor's voice slowly sounded. Its voice was deep and aged, like an old man.

Lin Moyu stopped in response and bowed slowly and politely. "Lin Moyu greets Senior Tree Emperor." The Ancient Tree Emperor said in a low voice, "Do you know you are wrong?"

Lin Moyu was stunned for a moment and blurted out, "What wrong have I committed?" The Ancient Tree Emperor's voice deepened. "You slaughtered my descendants; this is the wrong."

Lin Moyu shook his head. "Lin wants to go to the center, and they wanted to stop me. That makes them Lin's enemies. Lin is killing enemies, so what wrong is there?"

"If Senior also wishes to block Lin, Lin will not be polite either. Regardless of whether I can beat you or not, Lin will fight with all his might." The Ancient Tree Emperor did not argue with Lin Moyu but continued to speak to itself.

"You did not break the situation according to the Master's arrangement; this is also a wrong." Lin Moyu said, "Your Master is not Lin's Master. Why should Lin follow his layout? Lin does not know what his purpose is."

"Even if he appeared today and wanted to stop Lin, Lin would still fight with all his might." There was a trace of disdain in the Ancient Tree Emperor's tone. "Your strength is low; you are far from being the Master's opponent."

Lin Moyu said, "Whether I am an opponent or not is another question. If Senior only wants to say this, then there is no point in saying more. Let's just fight directly." The Ancient Tree Emperor did not attack.

A thick tree branch slowly lifted. The branch glimmered and projected a picture. "Solve this situation, and you may enter the Tian Xu Pagoda." Lin Moyu's heart stirred, and he thought to himself, "Guessed right!"

Chapter 4230: The Thoughts of the Lord of Tianxu Palace. The Ancient Tree Emperor is the final link guarding the Tianxu Palace. It can also be the gatekeeper of the central pagoda of Tianxu. Its existence must necessarily follow many rules.

The Lord of Tianxu Palace could not let it be free, just like the Zhulong of the past, which could have certain privileges but also had to act within the scope of the rules. From the moment the Ancient Tree Emperor struck its first blow, Lin Moyu had already been guessing the meaning of the Ancient Tree Emperor's existence.

All the ancient trees in the ancient forest, including the Ancient Tree Kings, could strictly be seen as the Ancient Tree Emperor's people. It was impossible for it not to know that the fighting was so intense just now. There were many reasons why it didn't interfere; one of the reasons might be that it simply didn't care, as long as it was still there.

This kind of ancient tree could constantly propagate and grow, so losing a few was nothing. But when he was clearly about to slaughter and exterminate the ancient trees, it attacked. But this was just a warning, so it only attacked once.

He understood and realized this, so he stopped attacking other ancient trees. It also stopped attacking him. When he arrived in front of it, it started to question his crimes, and he naturally would not admit it.

Because that was not the goal of the Lord of Tianxu Palace. Since the Lord of Tianxu Palace had such a layout, it was nothing more than selecting people qualified to enter the Tianxu Palace. And this person must have extremely strong cultivation in Divine Talisman and Rune Array; besides that, they also needed to have sufficiently strong strength. Both were indispensable.

To get here, one had to pass the test of Fatty; without Fatty's guidance, one could not reach the ancient forest. And such people were often arrogant, nine times out of ten capable of seeing through the layout, and very likely to become rebellious.

Not following the layout—Lin Moyu was exactly like this, and the Lord of Tianxu Palace would certainly have thought of this point. Therefore, it was not impossible to reach here relying solely on strength. The Ancient Tree Emperor's questioning was naturally just a formality. However, since the Lord of Tianxu Palace wanted to select someone proficient in Divine Talisman and Rune Array, he would inevitably exclude other possibilities.

Placing the test related to Divine Talisman at the final stage and leaving it under the control of the Ancient Tree Emperor meant that only after passing this final test could one enter the central Tian Xu Pagoda. Because the Ancient Tree Emperor was strong enough, no one in the entire Domain could surpass the Ancient Tree Emperor.

People in the Chaos Realm would inevitably leave the Domain and could not come here, and those who had not reached the Chaos Realm could not possibly be the Ancient Tree Emperor's opponent. The layout of the Lord of Tianxu Palace was clearly foolproof; even Lin Moyu himself was not confident in dealing with the Ancient Tree Emperor, let alone others. To put it bluntly.

Even if the Zhulong of that time had come here, it would have had to lie down obediently. Even if the Zhulong had transcended and entered the Chaos Realm, and then returned here, it might not necessarily be the Ancient Tree Emperor's opponent. The Ancient Tree Emperor had lived for countless years; how strong it was could not be estimated at all. Lin Moyu was less than a kilometer away from the Ancient Tree Emperor; in his sight, the Ancient Tree Emperor reached the sky and covered the earth.

In the Eye of the Undead, the terrifying Soul Fire was equally boundless and terrifying, but in his soul perception, the Ancient Tree Emperor was as if it didn't exist. This feeling of tearing made Lin Moyu feel his heart tremble.

However, he had planted a fruit, so even if they really fought, he would not be afraid; it was just that it was better not to fight if possible. Hearing the final words of the Ancient Tree Emperor, Lin Moyu knew he had guessed right; the Ancient Tree Emperor had to act according to the rules.

It would not attack him. The Ancient Tree Emperor's branch projected a picture, which was the distant Tian Xu Pagoda. The surroundings of the Tian Xu Pagoda were shrouded in the power of the Great Dao, making it unclear. Now, the Ancient Tree Emperor used a projection to reveal a part of the Tian Xu Pagoda. The Tian Xu Pagoda in the projection slowly rotated, showing the first level.

The Tian Xu Pagoda had eight gates. Flowing light moved on the doors, presenting various patterns. The patterns were vivid and lifelike, not static but constantly flowing and changing. The Ancient Tree Emperor said, "For every gate you unlock, you may enter one level."

"The Master said, if one has broken arrays all the way here, one only needs to unlock two gates, and I can let them enter the pagoda. If it is not someone who has come by breaking arrays, they need to unlock four gates before I can let them enter the pagoda." Lin Moyu looked at the projection; the Tian Xu Pagoda in the projection was the real-time situation of the Tian Xu Pagoda at this moment.

Not a single detail was missed. Breaking arrays here and breaking arrays in front of the real Tian Xu Pagoda was no different. The patterns constantly flowing and changing on the doors were the Rune Arrays. The Rune Arrays were formed after the Divine Talisman were broken apart, but these Divine Talisman were intertwined and constantly changing positions.

Forming various patterns, which greatly increased the difficulty. If the Lord of Array Dao came here, just a single glance would make him dazzled. Even Lin Moyu felt a headache at this moment; the attainments of the Lord of Tianxu Palace in Divine Talisman and Rune Array exceeded his imagination.

He turned his head and looked at the Tianxu Palace shrouded in the Great Dao. Although it was hazy, he could still see that the Tianxu Palace had nine levels. Lin Moyu said, "The Tianxu Palace seems to have nine levels, but there are only eight gates here."

The Ancient Tree Emperor said, "The Master said, only when all eight gates are opened will there be a chance to enter the ninth level. As for how to enter the ninth level, you need to find out for yourself." Lin Moyu nodded and continued to ask, "Over so many years, besides me, has anyone else come here?"
