Chapter 2812: 2812 **Chapter 2812: Deduction Symbol, The True Usage of Dao Patterns** The soul belongs to the virtual category, Lin Moyu always knew this. In the classification of virtual and real, the soul belongs to the virtual category. Sometimes the boundary between virtual and real is hard to distinguish, and often it is difficult to tell them apart. The soul is ethereal and intangible, although it can interfere with reality, it belongs to the virtual category. Some things are even more ethereal, like some laws, which belong to the real category. Lin Moyu believed in his judgment but still needed to experiment to be sure. Using a soul avatar for the experiment should not cause any issues. After drawing the luck rune on his soul body, he sent it into the avatar. The luck rune smoothly integrated with the avatar, causing only a slight tremor, with no adverse reaction. After carefully sensing for a moment, Lin Moyu discovered that the luck rune, after integrating with the soul avatar, was still slowly weakening. The power of luck within the rune was dissipating, and if not replenished, it would completely disappear soon. **"The avatar is safe, and the integration is successful."** "But why is the luck rune gradually dissipating? The soul avatar is not much different from my main body. Could it be that my idea is wrong? My soul can’t be the carrier for the luck rune?" "No, if it couldn’t be a carrier, the integration wouldn’t have succeeded." Lin Moyu was certain that the soul could indeed be the carrier for the luck rune; his idea was not wrong. But he couldn’t understand why the luck rune was gradually weakening. He tried nourishing the luck rune with the power of luck, but it was still ineffective. "If the soul carrier has this issue, then using other virtual items as carriers will likely have the same problem." "There must be something I overlooked, something I missed." Lin Moyu was confident in his idea and pondered to find out what he had missed. The soul body and the soul avatar stood face to face, looking almost identical except one was stronger and the other weaker. They could even share luck, except... Lin Moyu suddenly realized that the only difference between the soul avatar and the main body was the Dao pattern. When the soul advanced to the Dao Sovereign realm, a Dao pattern was generated. This Dao pattern had always been within the soul, motionless. It seemed useless and was gradually ignored. **Lin Moyu now suddenly remembered that there was a Dao pattern within his soul.** He recalled that in the illusion, when fighting with the disciples of the God-Slaying Sect, their spells were all activated using Dao patterns. This was different from the cultivators on the current Origin Continent, where Dao patterns were more of a status symbol. Apart from the true body of the Great Dao, Dao patterns were almost useless. **Or rather, the method of using Dao patterns had been lost.** "Let’s give it a try." "Even if it fails, I can just regenerate!" With the mindset of treating a dead horse as if it were alive, and relying on his ability to not die, Lin Moyu decided to take the risk. He dispersed the soul avatar and then meticulously drew a perfect luck rune. He then sent this luck rune into his own soul. The soul sensed a foreign object entering but felt no discomfort. The earthy yellow light bestowed by the Soul Gem also showed no reaction, and his spiritual sense did not send any warnings, proving that the luck rune posed no harm to the soul. Lin Moyu controlled the luck rune and sent it to the Dao pattern. At the moment of contact, the luck rune vibrated, and the Dao pattern also vibrated. Soon, their vibration frequencies synchronized, and they instantly fused together. The Dao pattern changed slightly, becoming simpler and less complex. At the same time, the Dao pattern now exhibited characteristics of the luck rune. **Streams of luck power were drawn and injected into the Dao pattern.** After merging with the Dao pattern, the luck rune not only did not weaken but grew stronger. Information flowed from the Dao pattern, and Lin Moyu instantly understood the nature of the luck rune he had fused. "So this rune is called the Deduction Symbol." "Using the power of luck to deduce the future, the stronger the luck, the longer the deduction time." "With my current luck strength, I can deduce events up to ten seconds into the future." Although it could only deduce events up to ten seconds into the future, it was already very powerful. In ten seconds, many things could happen, especially in a battle at the Dao Sovereign level, where even one second could determine life or death. Lin Moyu now understood the true usage of Dao patterns. They needed to be combined with other elements to be effective. **Things that could combine with Dao patterns included runes, spells, secret techniques, and even some special magical treasures.** The role of Dao patterns was significant, very significant. Modern cultivators had been using Dao patterns incorrectly. However, Lin Moyu found it strange that, given the importance of Dao patterns, so many cultivators over the years had not discovered their true usage. **Although Lin Moyu considered himself highly talented, he never thought he was unprecedented.** **There were many smart people in the world, and it was strange that no one had discovered this over countless years.** "Regardless, let’s deal with the current situation first." Lin Moyu activated the Deduction Symbol, instantly deducing what would happen in the next ten seconds. The result of the Deduction Symbol was instantaneous, allowing Lin Moyu to know what might happen in the next ten seconds. Lin Moyu took command of the Great Sword Dao Sovereign, personally directing it in battle. The secret techniques for attacks were still executed by the Great Sword Dao Sovereign, with Lin Moyu only giving orders. He would tell the Great Sword Dao Sovereign to slash left or right, but the specifics of the attack were up to the Great Sword Dao Sovereign. Lin Moyu used his consciousness to command, almost synchronizing with the Great Sword Dao Sovereign. The Great Sword Dao Sovereign’s reactions became faster. Previously, it was always half a step behind the Luck Bug and constantly suppressed. Now, the Great Sword Dao Sovereign began to take the initiative. When it launched an attack, the Luck Bug would naturally appear where the attack landed. The Luck Bug also reacted quickly, as it could also predict the Great Sword Dao Sovereign’s attacks, making it very agile in dodging. Both sides were continuously deducing, predicting what would happen next. The future became extremely chaotic, with countless possibilities. Lin Moyu fully activated the Deduction Symbol repeatedly, and the Luck Bug did the same. For a moment, neither side could gain the upper hand. However, on the surface, the Great Sword Dao Sovereign still suppressed the Luck Bug, as its higher realm and greater combat power gave it an advantage. Through the Explosive Luck Technique, Lin Moyu saw the Luck Bug’s luck value dropping rapidly, much faster than before. In just a few minutes, the luck value had dropped from 80 to 60, whereas it had taken half a day to drop by just over 10 points before. Clearly, the Great Sword Dao Sovereign was putting significant pressure on the Luck Bug. "This isn’t a sustainable way to fight; it will take a long time to wear it down." 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎 Lin Moyu didn’t want to waste any more time, and continuously using the Deduction Symbol would also deplete his own luck. Activating the Explosive Luck Technique, the Luck Bug’s luck value plummeted from 60 to 40. The Luck Bug began to scream uneasily, but it was too late. Lin Moyu deduced the future, and the Luck Bug exploded.
