Chapter 3682: 3682 Chapter 3682: Truly Brave "Don’t become the master of a world..." The Soul Heart King didn’t say it explicitly, but Lin Moyu caught the true meaning from its words. Clearly, after becoming the world’s master, the Soul Heart King had learned some new information. This information could be hidden deep within the world, only accessible to those who became the world’s master. It wasn’t like a large world but had to be like the Origin Continent, with an independent Great Dao and a massive projection in the Void Realm. Lin Moyu pondered the Soul Heart King’s words, focusing on the phrase "Do you believe in fate?" These four words were the most important. Gradually, he understood their meaning. The so-called "fate" wasn’t about destiny but rather about one’s limit or potential. Potential was mysterious and complex, influenced by factors like fate, opportunity, effort, and Dao heart. Most people couldn’t reach their full potential due to various reasons. Living beings had limits, and so did worlds. The Soul Heart King had hoped that after mastering the world, it would become incredibly strong. However, it saw its own limit, which was a despairing realization. Due to certain rules, the Soul Heart King couldn’t express this openly, so it asked: "Do you believe in fate?" Lin Moyu naturally didn’t believe in fate, as limits weren’t unbreakable. However, once you believed in fate, your potential would hardly change. The Soul Heart King warned against becoming the world’s master, but it didn’t realize it was already a master of its own world. Its own world had no limits, or if it did, they were meant to be shattered. Since the Soul Heart King was well-intentioned, Lin Moyu accepted its warning. "No wonder the Discernment Beast never considers transcendence. Perhaps the Emperors it associates with also don’t consider it." "Transcendence isn’t true transcendence but rather moving from a smaller circle to a larger one." "Those who dare to transcend are truly brave. They refuse to be confined to a circle and dare to try." Lin Moyu felt that the Soul Heart King was still brave. From its words, he could tell that it wasn’t content with its potential and even thought about breaking through its limits. For such a person, how could one laugh at them as foolish? On the other hand, beings like the Discernment Beast, although powerful and ancient, seemed somewhat contemptible. Lin Moyu didn’t linger and turned to leave. The Soul Heart King had achieved its wish, and he had his own things to attend to. He needed to continue cultivating. As a third-tier soul, he wasn’t strong enough. After completing his mission on the Origin Continent, he planned to accompany Antares in ascending to the Dragon Race’s Great Dao. The power of a third-tier soul was far from sufficient. Through his connection with the soul world, Lin Moyu knew everything was fine there. His journey into the Void Realm had already passed over 160 years. According to the Origin Continent’s evolution, in a few more decades, the seventh-tier soul’s Great Dao realm would be accessible. By then, the strong from the external Great Dao would completely suppress the strong on the Origin Continent. However, with him holding them back, there shouldn’t be major issues. The top forces on the Origin Continent all had some background from the external Great Dao, though they weren’t strong. They could exert some influence and wouldn’t dare act recklessly on the continent. But if time passed further, with the arrival of sixth or fifth-tier soul Great Dao realms, things might become unpredictable. Looking at the timeline, a few hundred years was just a blink of an eye. The tidal storm had just passed, and many void beasts in the Void Realm were still recovering from their losses. For Lin Moyu, luring and killing large numbers of void beasts had become more difficult, with efficiency greatly reduced. He went to unexplored small spirit domains, using his undead legion to attract void beasts and then employing the Thousand Paths and Myriad Phenomena Formation to trap and kill them, refining them into soul crystals. As his cultivation level increased, the demand for soul crystals grew more extreme. To advance a small realm, he needed at least tens of thousands of high-quality soul crystals. Lin Moyu felt the progress was too slow. He hadn’t considered that reaching the level of a third-tier soul was rare even among ancient Great Dao realms. Who wasn’t a result of hundreds of millions of years of cultivation? Others had spent vast amounts of time to achieve their strength, while he had caught up in just a few hundred years. If people knew, they would probably want to kill him. On the Origin Continent, after the heaven and earth changed, the Great Dao had evolved over three hundred years, finally allowing third-tier soul Great Dao realms to enter. Sixth-tier soul Great Dao realms were no longer weak; a casual strike could damage the Origin Continent. Even after three hundred years of Great Dao nourishment, the current Origin Continent was much more robust than it was three hundred years ago. However, it still couldn’t withstand the reckless destruction of a sixth-tier soul Great Dao realm. Therefore, the Great Dao had its rules. If anyone dared to harm the Origin Continent, the Great Dao’s punishment would be severe. Those who entered as Great Dao realms mostly did so to pass on their teachings and wouldn’t cause major conflicts. On the Central Continent, Lin Moyu remained, while Antares had been motionless for over a hundred years, resembling a mountain. If not for the dragon breath constantly coming from its nostrils, people would have thought it was dead. The Great Dao realms from the external Great Dao coexisted peacefully, but the native forces on the Origin Continent were not so tranquil. Many forces had always been at odds, and even with external pressure, they couldn’t be suppressed indefinitely. After a period of calm, conflicts inevitably arose, starting with small-scale clashes that escalated into large-scale ones. Dao Venerables joined the battles, expanding the conflict’s scale. Defeated forces sought aid from all sides, making the power dynamics on the Origin Continent complex and intertwined like a spider’s web. Finally, the top forces’ strong members intervened. However, they discovered that the smaller forces were not simple and had complex motives behind their conflicts. Some small forces, though not large in scale, had long-standing legacies and even had strong backers from the external Great Dao. With such support, they had their own ideas and sought to break free from the top forces’ control. The conflicts escalated towards the Great Dao realm level. Because the Origin Continent had become robust enough, ninth-tier soul Great Dao realms could now act, as long as they didn’t cause chaos. The Great Dao wouldn’t impose punishment. Afterward, the Origin Continent became even more chaotic, with battles everywhere. Not just the Southern Continent but also the Eastern Continent was affected. Eventually, even the Northern Continent’s demon race began to fight among themselves. Many ancestors from the demon race returned from the external Great Dao, and several royal families were suppressed. The Demon Emperor didn’t appear during this time, seemingly no longer concerned with demon race affairs. On the other hand, the Western Continent became the most peaceful. The Origin Continent was in turmoil, but everyone exercised restraint, avoiding a complete mess. Until ten years ago, when the Cold Water Holy Land and the Question Dao Sect officially went to war, the situation truly boiled over. Following this, the Seven Star Holy Land and the Dance House also clashed. The human race on the Southern Continent suffered heavy casualties, with many strong figures severely injured or fallen. Overall, however, a relative balance was maintained. A year ago, a protective Great Dao fortress slowly emerged from the external Great Dao. Due to special reasons, the external Great Dao didn’t stop the protective fortress.
