Chapter 3870: 3870 Chapter 3870: The Grudge Fruit of All Living Beings A thousand portions of Desolate Beast Essence this price was a bit outrageous. Lin Moyu’s mouth twitched; even at his efficiency, gathering a thousand portions of Desolate Beast Essence would take at least several thousand years. Just one portion could be traded for many precious materials and treasures, showing how valuable it was. Lin Moyu said slowly, "A thousand portions... isn’t that a bit too much?" An Yuyan explained, "Lin Daoist, don’t think this price is high. In fact, it’s quite fair. "Although I haven’t seen your world, I can sense that it’s already very close to the eternal level. "You’re also a Dao Lord, so your true spirit mark holds a different place in the world. For me to use the power of cause and effect to forcibly reverse your cause and effect, the cost is no less. "If you’d asked earlier, back when you were only at the Great Dao Realm, the price would’ve been much lower just a hundred portions of Desolate Beast Essence." Lin Moyu gave a wry smile. "I didn’t expect there’d be such a difference." An Yuyan said, "Of course. Cause and effect is all about balance. Reversing cause and effect comes at a great cost. "And from what I can see, your cause and effect is rather strange. If it were anyone else, no matter how high the price, I wouldn’t agree to help." Lin Moyu raised an eyebrow. "What’s strange about it?" An Yuyan shook her head. "It’s hard to say. Your cause and effect is very peculiar, and I can’t see it clearly." Even the Lord of Cause and Effect couldn’t see through his cause and effect this was truly surprising. A thousand portions of Desolate Beast Essence was simply too high a price impossible to pay. Then An Yuyan added, "Your cause and effect isn’t just strange, it’s also extremely complicated. In my opinion, this is something you’ll ultimately have to resolve yourself; no one else can help." Lin Moyu asked, "Then if I asked you to shatter the world will of my world?" An Yuyan shook her head. "Lin Daoist, you’re trying to cut off my path! I haven’t taken my final step yet, and you want to hold me back?" Lin Moyu quickly replied, "I have no such intention." An Yuyan giggled, "Just teasing you don’t take it seriously. But this is something no one would agree to. "The world will is a very special existence, and the cause and effect involved is enormous even we can’t bear it. "You saw in the Origin Land those eight silent Dao Lords; two of them ended up that way because they destroyed two fully formed world wills. The cause and effect entangled them so much that even now, they’ve never recovered. "In the end, they chose to reincarnate, hoping to clear the cause and effect and return to their peak. But after all these years, they still haven’t succeeded." She paused, then suddenly froze, as if seeing something unbelievable her eyes nearly popped out. Lin Moyu asked curiously, "Daoist An, what’s wrong?" An Yuyan said, "Lin Daoist, have you ever killed a world will?" Lin Moyu admitted, "Yes, I killed one once, but it was only a just formed world will." An Yuyan said, "Even a just formed world will carries massive cause and effect. You may not know this, but killing a world will brings a special kind of cause and effect called the Grudge Fruit of All Living Beings. "It means the resentment of billions of living beings turns into cause and effect, binding itself to you. "The bigger the world, the more living beings, the heavier the resentment. "In a fully formed world, with countless living beings and even multiple eras, the resentment is so great that even we would avoid it. "In a just formed world, there aren’t as many living beings, but at your current level, you still shouldn’t be able to bear it. "But from what I see, your Grudge Fruit of All Living Beings seems to have already been mostly resolved. "How did you do it?" Lin Moyu had a guess why, but said aloud, "I don’t know how it was resolved. When I acted, I didn’t think about it, nor did I know about this Grudge Fruit." An Yuyan grew more curious, scrutinizing Lin Moyu as if she wanted to dissect him for study. But no matter how she looked, she couldn’t figure it out. After a while, she finally gave up her curiosity. "It seems my understanding of the Great Dao isn’t enough. If I could take that last step, maybe I’d know the answer." Lin Moyu played along: "If even Daoist An can’t see why, then there’s no point in me worrying about it." An Yuyan said, "Don’t trouble yourself over it there’s likely no answer. As for your connection to your own world, you’ll have to resolve it yourself. But as the Lord of Immortality, I believe you’ll find a way. I’ll wait for your good news." With that, she gave Lin Moyu a slight bow and left. Even as she departed, her eyes were still filled with doubt. For there to be something in the Cause and Effect Great Dao she couldn’t understand made her feel she was a Lord of Cause and Effect in name only. 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦 As the mist closed in again, Lin Moyu’s gaze was thoughtful. What An Yuyan didn’t understand, he had some guesses about. According to her, eternal beings who kill a world will receive the Grudge Fruit of All Living Beings. The Grudge Fruit isn’t a curse or luck, but a kind of cause and effect. Once it attaches to you, it can’t be removed, and your soul is polluted, making everything you do go wrong. Some eternal beings have even risked reincarnation just to get rid of it. The Grudge Fruit comes from the countless living beings within a world, which reminded Lin Moyu of the power of faith he’d just obtained. In the Myriad Worlds, all living things from cultivators to ants and bugs, to every plant and tree provided him with faith power. This faith power is the soul deep worship and belief of the world’s beings in their lord. When needed, this faith power can be a great force. But if he were killed, that faith power would instantly become the most vicious force, binding itself to his killer that’s the Grudge Fruit of All Living Beings. The Grudge Fruit isn’t impossible to remove, but the method requires the faith of all living beings. But for those eternal beings, being called "world lords" is not the same as what Lin Moyu is. Their so called world lordship is actually about cultivating a world will and becoming its master. For the living beings within the world, the true master is still the world will. So such world lords can’t gain enough faith from all living things, and thus can’t remove the Grudge Fruit. As for Emperors, it’s even less possible. That’s why neither Emperors nor Dao Lords would dare attack a world will. Even against a just formed world will, they’d be extremely cautious. The most the Morning Bell and Twilight Drum Emperors did was force the world will into slumber that was already the limit. But for Lin Moyu, if he acted against the world will of the Origin Continent, since he is a being of the Origin Continent, it would count as internal strife, and he wouldn’t attract the Grudge Fruit. That’s why An Yuyan said his cause and effect must be resolved by himself. Lin Moyu thought, "In that case, I can act against any world will. Helping the Third Ancestor and the others seize a world won’t be a problem." "Looks like I really am on the right path!"
