Chapter 4430: Chapter 4430: Wanting to Revive Chapter 4430: Wanting to Revive The mists in the desolate region were washed away by the rain for the first time in countless years, revealing their true face. Deep, crisscrossing ravines like immense canyon fissures were so deep they seemed bottomless. These trenches made up a labyrinth, emitting a strange power. Combined with the mists, it was easy to get lost, unable to find the correct path. That’s why it’s called the desolate region: aside from these ravines, there was almost no sign of life. Nothing but the maze of ravines and lifeless ground except for monsters without life that had somehow evolved there. The origin of these monsters was unknown; everyone only knew they were endless, impossible to completely destroy. Kill one, another would just respawn soon after. Fortunately, the monsters weren’t strong, just endlessly annoying inside the region. With the cover of fog, the monsters constantly harassed intruders, keeping everyone’s nerves on edge. The mists also distorted judgment and could even affect one’s Dao heart, making this region deeply troublesome. Now, finally, all could see the desolate region’s true face its deepest mysteries exposed. Everyone could clearly see the monsters prowling in the depths. Soon, all saw a gigantic beast, crouched like a wild animal. Its body was tightly bound by crystal clear chains, holding it fast. The beast’s eyes burned red as it glared not at the giant beast that strode the sky on water, but with an intense gaze Lin Moyu recognized as not just hatred, but longing and greed. There was something off about these two while they looked different, Lin Moyu felt sure they were the same; no matter the outward form, their essence was alike. Only he seemed able to sense this. Someone yelled, "That’s the Chaos Divine Water Beast!" With that shout, everyone woke to the sight of the mythic creature the one in the air, walking on water, raining down to clear the mist. For many in the West Pole, the Chaos Divine Water Beast was a totem; many believed themselves its descendants and claimed its bloodline with pride. Now, faced with what might be the Divine Water Beast, they were beside themselves even kneeling in worship. Even powerful Chaos cultivators knelt before this phantom beast an astonishing sight to behold. But Lin Moyu saw more: in the act of their worship, filaments of faith power poured forth, merging into the Chaos Divine Water Beast. Suddenly, Lin Moyu understood: "It wants to revive...!" Little Tree echoed, "Yes, it wants to revive using faith. The one below is its resentment I think I get it now." Chaos Child added, "Me too!" Both had once stood atop all chaos; a single glance was enough to grasp the truth. They discussed it, but left Lin Moyu to piece things together, wary of drawing the attention of Dao. Even without every detail, Lin Moyu now understood: The Cause Seeking Ring smashed a pit into the Pure Land, forming the current desolate region. That blow killed the Divine Water Beast, but its flesh and resentment weren’t fully erased they formed a monster, imprisoned here. The fog was a result of the Cause Seeking Ring a prison of mist and chains, all made of karmic power. Yet the Divine Water Beast’s will and a piece of its soul survived in the West Pole Pure Land, clinging to existence with the help of Chaos Divine Water. In its dying moments, it poured all its power into awakening the Pure Land, so the fragmentary West Pole could be restored. And so the West Pole’s legends were born; the natives called the beast "ancestor" and offered faith in a ceaseless stream. Faith was a mysterious power distinct from the Dao, perhaps even more wondrous. The Divine Water Beast, clinging to a sliver of consciousness, eternal obsession, and rage given form, used faith’s power in a bid for rebirth. It could work, but it would be incredibly hard. Now, at least, the conditions were beginning to appear. The beast was beginning to take shape, still just a phantom a crucial first step. Its mind was yet to awaken; it acted only on instinct. Lin Moyu’s arrival, and the presence of the Cause Seeking Ring, caught the attention of the beast’s resentment, sparking today’s events. The Divine Water Beast’s dousing of the mists was actually to help its own resentment break free. But the Cause Seeking Ring’s power was too strong those crystalline chains were built from karma, and tightly bound the monster. Even the ravines were filled with karmic energy, so the Divine Water Beast didn’t dare step in, not even with the aid of Chaos Divine Water. For true resurrection, a long road remained. 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶 Both the spirit and the resentment of the Divine Water Beast howled, their roars deafening. The one in the desolate region seemed almost frantic, ramming the Rainbow Bridge over and over. But its strength was limited; the bridge shook and trembled, but did not break. It couldn’t speak or express itself only continue its furious roars. The beast in the sky seemed to grasp what its counterpart wanted, its gaze roving until it fell on Lin Moyu. To be precise, it fixed on the Cause Seeking Ring. Killing intent flared; the ring was to blame for all this, and as Lin Moyu wore it, he became the most hated enemy. The Divine Water Beast stared at Lin Moyu but others saw only a beast glaring at everyone on the bridge. "What’s it doing?" "Does it want to kill us?" "Oh no, I sense it! It really wants to kill us!" The beast’s killing intent was so fierce, it confused all present. Only Lin Moyu understood its goal was to slay him and seize the Cause Seeking Ring, believing it would free itself at last. Otherwise, the chains alone could not be broken. The killing pressure spiked; overhead, thick black clouds gathered, thunder rolling at any moment, a storm of chaos thunder might descend. The clouds were formed entirely of Chaos Divine Water exceptionally powerful and versatile, deadly as any weapon. "Careful, it’s about to strike!" "That’s Chaos Divine Water run!" Cries of alarm broke out among the crowd, and chaos erupted on the bridge. Chaos Child used the pearl’s charm to spread fear even to other bridges, so many people thought the beast was targeting them panic gripped every rainbow bridge. Those were Lin Moyu and Peng’s shouts deliberate, meant to stir chaos. When forced to choose between faith and life, everyone chose to live. In the face of death, ancestral worship ceased to matter. The bridge fell into total panic; cultivators used every method they could, running in all directions. Those stuck in Minor Completion couldn’t even move only fret. That’s when branches shot out, picking them up and flinging them far away. Lin Moyu, too, spread his wings of chaos and fled far into the distance.
