Chapter 4011: 4011 Chapter 4011: I Can’t Compare to a Monster Like You Inside the Soul Void, Lin Moyu once again sensed the will of the world in the Origin Continent. With the combination of the real and the virtual, he reconfirmed his judgment: the world will was indeed reviving, and there should be about a thousand years left before it truly awakens. Originally, it should have slumbered for five thousand years, but at this rate, it would awaken about a thousand years early maybe even sooner, though not by much. Lin Moyu couldn’t calculate the exact time, with a margin of error of a hundred years being normal, so he had to make preparations in advance to leave himself enough time to respond. Entering the Soul Void, Lin Moyu summoned Little Python. But Little Python didn’t respond. Following his senses, Lin Moyu found Little Python curled up, wrapped in a strange power, seemingly in a special state of transformation. Lin Moyu felt Little Python was changing, so he didn’t disturb him, instead leaving a group of spirit servants to guard him, and took the Heaven Covering Stone and Immortal Jade to find the Third Ancestor. At this moment, the Third Ancestor was stationed just outside the core of a world. The Dao Lord of this world had already been cleared out by Lin Moyu, and even the world’s source core had been scorched by the World Burning Fire, leaving it weakened. This greatly increased the odds of successfully occupying the world. This was the previous plan, which also involved seeking out the Discernment Beast to borrow its secret technique to further boost the success rate and ensure nothing went wrong. But after the journey through the gate and obtaining the Myriad Spirits Secret Art, the plan had changed. Along the way, Lin Moyu repeatedly verified the feasibility of his new plan and, after confirming there were no problems, decided to proceed. 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮 The new plan didn’t require the Discernment Beast and was even safer, with an almost 100% success rate though it had one drawback. When Lin Moyu arrived, the Third Ancestor smiled, "Kid Lin, I thought you weren’t coming back." Clearly, he’d been anxious, with time running short and Lin Moyu seemingly making no progress. Lin Moyu replied, "Just hope for the best." The Third Ancestor asked, "So, did everything go smoothly?" He didn’t really need to ask seeing Lin Moyu’s demeanor, he already knew the answer: there were no problems. Lin Moyu joked, "Not bad. Our plan needs a little adjustment." The Third Ancestor grunted, "That’s normal. So, did you not get the Heaven Covering Stone, or did you get something even better?" Lin Moyu shook his head, "Neither. I got a set of secret arts. With these, the odds are even better, and you can keep being yourself." In the original plan, after becoming the master of a world, the Third Ancestor would have to change identity his soul would remain, but his old body would be gone, replaced by an entire world. Fortunately, these cultivators didn’t care much about their bodies, only about cultivation, realm, and being alive. But with the Myriad Spirits Secret Art, the body could be preserved, the Third Ancestor could remain himself, and the world could still be controlled stronger than before. The Third Ancestor wasn’t surprised by the change. "Tell me, what are the pros and cons of the new plan?" Lin Moyu smiled, "The advantage is simple you keep your old body, nothing changes, and you even get a new subordinate, who might be stronger than you. The downside is your recovery period will be long maybe a million years. During that time, you’ll have to behave, or you might get yourself killed." At first, the Third Ancestor listened seriously, but as Lin Moyu went on, he realized he was being teased. He couldn’t help but laugh and curse, "Brat, when have I ever caused trouble? You think everyone’s like you, stirring up trouble wherever you go?" Lin Moyu sighed, "Yeah, that’s my specialty trouble follows me everywhere." The Third Ancestor said, "Let’s go with the new plan. After all these years with this body, I’d hate to change it now." Lin Moyu replied, "Since you’ve decided, let’s get started. I’ll explain the steps you just follow along." He didn’t give the Myriad Spirits Secret Art to the Third Ancestor; even with his abilities, it would take at least 100,000 years to fully comprehend. Even Lin Moyu himself would need thousands or tens of thousands of years. He only managed to master seventy or eighty percent thanks to listening to the pavilion’s Dao lecture. Moreover, the Myriad Spirits Art had a benefit: the Spirit Nurturing and Spirit Seizing techniques could be performed by someone else. Of course, it was best if the user understood it, but even so, it would take the Third Ancestor at least thirty or fifty thousand years to learn, and there wasn’t enough time. So Lin Moyu would perform the Spirit Nurturing technique himself. But before that, the Third Ancestor had to "die" once. Lin Moyu took out the Heaven Covering Stone and Immortal Jade. "Split off one third of your soul and attach it to the Heaven Covering Stone, then refine the Immortal Jade and merge it with the rest of your soul." Even though the Third Ancestor was prepared, he still frowned. One third of the soul was a lot normally, even for a clone, only a tiny wisp was used, less than a ten thousandth. If such a clone died, it was nothing. But if a third of the soul was killed, the remaining two thirds would likely die as well. But that was exactly what Lin Moyu wanted to make the Third Ancestor truly die once, so the world would believe he was really dead and erase his soul imprint from the Origin Continent. The soul imprint was a mark of birth and cultivation in the Origin Continent, allowing smooth cultivation and enlightenment, but also letting the world will control life and death. Fortunately, the world will didn’t directly control the soul imprint; whether it existed was governed by certain world rules. The Heaven Covering Stone would fool those rules, and the Immortal Jade would ensure the Third Ancestor could come back to life after truly dying. The Third Ancestor was decisive. "A third it is." Lin Moyu handed him the Heaven Covering Stone and Immortal Jade. "Begin." The Third Ancestor gritted his teeth and split his soul, one part large, one part small, like being torn apart. The pain was intense ordinary people couldn’t bear it, except someone like Lin Moyu, who was used to dying. Lin Moyu muttered, "Is it really that painful?" Both of the Third Ancestor’s souls yelled, "Of course it is! Try it yourself!" Lin Moyu didn’t care his soul exploded on the spot, splitting into countless pieces. "Doesn’t feel like anything to me." The Third Ancestor was speechless. "I can’t compare to a monster like you." The two soul fragments refined the Immortal Jade and Heaven Covering Stone. The Immortal Jade turned into a droplet, merging into the Third Ancestor’s soul, giving him a sense of something new, though he couldn’t quite feel it. In Lin Moyu’s eyes, the Third Ancestor’s aura changed, becoming hazy and hard to discern. The Immortal Jade’s power now wrapped the Third Ancestor, granting him a chance at resurrection. After refining, the Heaven Covering Stone took on the Third Ancestor’s form same aura, appearance, and realm, even though it was only a third of his soul.
