Chapter 4142: 4142 Chapter 4142: The Spirit Demon Clan’s Puppet There are four Spirit Demon Emperors in total, each possessing extraordinary combat power surpassing even the Beast Emperors and stronger than any Eternal. Not only are they unmatched in single combat, but even two or three Eternals joining forces might not be able to defeat a single Spirit Demon Emperor. In the past, the Sword Emperor of the Spirit Demon Clan fought against three Beast Emperors at once, and though he was gravely injured, he managed to kill one and severely wound the other two. The four Spirit Demon Emperors are more than a match for all the Eternals and the nine Beast Emperors combined. Because of this, when pressured by the Spirit Demon Emperors in those days, many Great Dao Lords were forced to fall as a form of atonement. How others feel about this is unknown, but Lin Moyu has never forgotten. Karma must be repaid, sooner or later. Now, with the Dao Wild Beasts attacking the Spirit Demon Clan with full force, the cultivators simply watch from the sidelines, treating it as a spectacle. Lin Moyu is doing the same not just watching, but also using this opportunity to probe the secrets of the Spirit Demon Clan. All four Spirit Demon Emperors act at once, their strength truly remarkable, holding their ground against the nine Beast Emperors. The Spirit Demon Clan also sends out many powerful spirit demons, forcibly holding back the beast army. Lin Moyu relays all this back via formation, letting the other Eternals see the reality for themselves. "If the Spirit Demon Clan is this strong, if they’d joined forces with us back then, the Dao Wild Beast problem would have been solved long ago," the Lord of Power said with some dissatisfaction, chewing on his dried meat as he spoke loudly. An Yuyan replied, "I heard from Daoist Lin that the Spirit Demon Clan has another agenda. They don’t want to solve the Dao Wild Beast problem; they just want to drag things out and maintain a three way balance." Old Yin Head responded, "Then does Daoist Lin know why they want to do this?" An Yuyan shook her head. "I don’t know. Daoist Lin probably knows something, but he hasn’t said." The Human Emperor laughed. "I think it’s better not to say. We all have secrets; there’s no need to reveal everything. We just need to know Daoist Lin is on our side." This was true, and the other Eternals agreed. Everyone has secrets; no one reveals everything. It’s normal for Lin Moyu to have secrets too, as long as he stands with them. On the battlefield, the fight between the Spirit Demon Emperors and Beast Emperors grew more intense. Old Yin Head remarked, "The mutant wild beast is about to act, isn’t it?" Within the Spirit Demon Clan’s territory, Lin Moyu also watched the battle, his gaze falling on the Dao Cloud. "You’re about to make your move, aren’t you?" The battle between the Spirit Demon Emperors and Beast Emperors was fierce, neither side able to spare any attention elsewhere making it the perfect time for the mutant wild beast to act. Sure enough, within three seconds of this thought, two giant claws appeared above the heads of two Spirit Demon Emperors, one of whom was the Sword Emperor. The mutant wild beast targeted two of them. Under its claws, the Great Dao shattered, the void collapsed, and countless cracks appeared out of nowhere. The Sword Emperor roared and struck with his sword, but the mutant beast’s claws crushed the sword light and slammed down on him. With a scream, the Sword Emperor was smashed into the ground, leaving a massive crater and sending dust flying everywhere. The terrifying shockwave swept outward, destroying both Dao Wild Beasts and Spirit Demon Clan members alike, leaving only death and Dao dissolution in its wake. Battles at this level are extremely dangerous for the weak. "It’s definitely stronger now!" Lin Moyu could clearly sense that this strike was much stronger than before the mutant wild beast had been evolving all these years, and its growth had outpaced even his expectations. Lin Moyu suspected this was related to the purified filth pools. After purification, the underground filth currents had nowhere to go and would flow into other pools. But those pools were already full, so the filth would eventually be refined and sent to special pools, strengthening them. This naturally sped up the mutant beast’s transformation. 𝕗𝕣𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝚌𝕠𝚖 Realizing this, Lin Moyu suddenly thought, "Turn their trick against them the Beast Emperors are using the Soulless Beast." Outwardly, the Beast Emperors seemed unable to stop the Soulless Beast from purifying the pools and made no effort to restore them, because any restored pool would just be purified again and drained by the Soulless Beast. But in reality, the Beast Emperors were using the Soulless Beast’s purification ability to concentrate Dao filth, sending more of it into special pools and accelerating the mutant beast’s transformation. They could also speed up the gestation of other special pools. With the beast army attacking the Spirit Demon Clan and no one guarding the rear, the Soulless Beast would surely seize the chance to purify pools. The more pools purified, the more Dao filth the special pools received the Beast Emperors were trading ordinary beasts for mutant beasts. Mutual exploitation, mutual calculation their cunning once again exceeded expectations. Still, Lin Moyu did not order the Soulless Beast to stop purifying pools. This was their battle, and he would not interfere; he had his own matters to attend to. The mutant wild beast struck again, injuring two more Spirit Demon Emperors before they could react. All four were seriously wounded in two quick attacks, immediately reversing the situation. Now beset by the nine Beast Emperors, the Spirit Demon Emperors quickly fell into dire straits. They hadn’t even seen who attacked them and had to stay on guard, making their situation even worse almost powerless to fight back. The Spirit Demon Clan, under assault from the beast army, also began to falter, with more and more of their people being killed. The wild beasts were utterly fearless, attacking with savage ferocity. If this continued, the Spirit Demon Clan would not only lose they’d be wiped out. Lin Moyu watched, thinking, "The Spirit Demon Clan must have another trick up their sleeve. It’s time to show it." Boom! In the distance, a powerful aura surged as the depths of the Spirit Demon Clan roiled, the Dao Cloud layer scattering. Lin Moyu saw something rush into the Dao Cloud, flying rapidly toward the battlefield. The Spirit Demon Clan did have a backup plan, and its appearance pointed Lin Moyu in the right direction. Cloaked in divine runes, he silently flew deeper into their territory, moving so stealthily that no one noticed. The Dao Cloud churned violently as the Spirit Demon Clan’s secret weapon entered the battlefield and collided with the mutant wild beast. The shockwave rocked the entire field, scattering the Dao Cloud and revealing both sides. The Spirit Demon Clan’s trump card was a puppet. "A puppet!" Lin Moyu recognized it at a glance, finding it strangely familiar not in appearance, but in technique. The puppet was filled with pure power the very Dao essence the Candle Dragon had spoken of. Heaven and earth’s Dao has two fundamental forces: Dao essence and filth. Dao essence is similar to Dao origin energy, formed from the concentration of Dao essence. Unexpectedly, the Spirit Demon Clan had been collecting Dao essence, though their purpose was unclear. The two sides clashed fiercely. In terms of strength, the Spirit Demon Clan’s puppet was not weaker than the mutant wild beast, but Lin Moyu felt that if the fight continued, the Spirit Demon Clan would ultimately lose. After watching for a moment, he decided not to waste any more time and continued flying deeper into their territory.
