Chapter 3209: 3209 Chapter 3209: After Returning from the Western Continent, Let’s Go to the Southern Continent After arranging for Soul One and the others, Lin Moyu released Little Mist and the others as well. After this period of cultivation, Little Mist and the others had advanced further in their cultivation. Little Moon had successfully entered the Supreme realm, with the next step being the Heavenly Venerable realm. Little Mist had stabilized at the first-level Dao Venerable realm and was advancing towards the second level. Little Five was one level higher than Little Mist and hadn’t encountered any bottlenecks so far. During this time, the three had accumulated quite a bit of lightning poison again. However, this time Lin Moyu didn’t plan to use the World-Burning Fire to help them clear the lightning poison. Although the purple lightning containing Great Dao power was a good thing, they couldn’t rely on it for cultivation all the time. The foundation still needed to be solid. Purple lightning was a good addition, but they couldn’t depend on it too much. The three understood this principle and had no objections to Lin Moyu’s arrangement. Upon returning to Dao Speech City, Lin Moyu handed over several hundred thousand third-grade premium origin crystals to the Human Emperor, along with a pile of miscellaneous magical treasure materials. These were all gains from this trip, which he threw into the warehouse for the Human Emperor to distribute. Then Lin Moyu set to work, making some modifications to the formations. He strengthened the Nine Heavens Lightning Storm Formation group protecting Dao Speech City once again. The strengthened formation group, now controlled by the formation spirit Little Gold, was enough to block eighth-level Dao Venerables and could easily kill seventh-level Dao Venerables. Lin Moyu knew that he had already stepped into the realm of eighth-grade formation grandmasters. Now the only thing he lacked was cultivation realm. As long as his cultivation realm took another step forward, entering the fourth-level Dao Venerable realm, he would be a true eighth-grade formation grandmaster. In the entire Origin Continent, eighth-grade formation grandmasters were very rare. "I wonder how Senior Lu Fengqing is doing." After gaining some insight from watching Lin Moyu set up formations last time, Lu Fengqing had gone into seclusion and remained so until now. He was very likely to become an eighth-grade formation grandmaster, facing the same problem of being limited by cultivation realm. The fourth-level Dao Venerable realm was the threshold for eighth-grade formation grandmasters. During the modification of the formations, Lin Moyu sensed that Dao Speech City’s destiny was strengthening at an unusual rate. In just over ten days, Dao Speech City’s destiny had nearly doubled. This situation was very strange. Lin Moyu thought for a moment and understood that it was Soul One and the others joining Dao Speech City that caused its destiny to increase significantly. This also showed that Soul One and the others had sincerely joined Dao Speech City. "It seems this is the best way to use Soul Spirit Progenitor Beasts." "Killing Soul Spirit Progenitor Beasts doesn’t work and will taint one with great karma, leading to misfortune." "If one treats Soul Spirit Progenitor Beasts well enough for them to sincerely accept you, you’ll still be tainted with karma, but without misfortune. Instead, it can greatly enhance destiny." "Compared to studying the intangible Dao of Cause and Effect, enhancing destiny is much more practical." As Dao Speech City’s destiny strengthened, Lin Moyu’s own destiny also increased considerably. As the city lord, he benefited the most. Others would also gain, just not as much as him. Rather than pursuing intangible things, Lin Moyu preferred tangible benefits. Destiny was very tangible. With strong enough destiny, one could encounter all sorts of good things, turn danger into safety when faced with peril, and even have endless lucky encounters. After staying in Dao Speech City for twenty days, Lin Moyu left again, returning to the Commercial City. The No. 3 Hurricane Warship was about to arrive, and Lin Moyu needed to take the warship to the Western Continent. Now, even if he didn’t take the Hurricane Warship, he could use the Cloud-Piercing Sword to go to the Western Continent. However, that would be too troublesome. Crossing the Realm Sea might encounter some problems, and it was better to avoid trouble when possible. Before leaving, Lin Moyu visited Lei Guang’s village. The village was quiet, with no problems. Lin Moyu checked the village’s destiny. Although not as strong as Dao Speech City’s, it was still flourishing, indicating that Lei Guang hadn’t encountered any accidents. "I wonder what Antares is planning." "His target isn’t the dragon race on the Origin Continent, but the dragon race in the Great Dao beyond the sky." "The dragon race in the Great Dao..." Lin Moyu had already realized what Antares was thinking. His goal was incredibly terrifying. The dragon race in the Great Dao were probably all Great Dao realm beings. Could Antares really deal with them? "But whether it’s possible or not, I will fight alongside you." Lin Moyu said softly, his tone extremely determined. He had promised Antares that he would accompany him to kill the dragon race, no matter which dragon race it was. Three days later, Lin Moyu returned to the Commercial City. At this time, there were still a few days before the No. 3 Hurricane Warship would arrive. The Commercial City was still bustling. Since its establishment, this bustle had never stopped for a day. In the entire Eastern Continent, the most prosperous and safest place was the Commercial City. Even when the Eastern Spirit Empire swept across the Eastern Continent, they would avoid the Commercial City. The reason was simple: the Three Ancestors. However, Lin Moyu knew that in the future, his Dao Speech City would also become like the Commercial City, one of the safest places in the Eastern Continent. "Perhaps it’s time to return to the Southern Continent." "I wonder how you’re doing." Lin Moyu thought of Gu Hanyu, the female sect leader with whom he had a one-night stand by chance. It wasn’t the first time he had thought of Gu Hanyu; he often thought of her. Lin Moyu knew it was because of the Intertwined Branch. The Intertwined Branch was too miraculous a magical treasure. Even now, he hadn’t fully understood the Dao contained within it. The Intertwined Branch was influencing him silently, imperceptibly. He could no longer distinguish whether it was entirely due to the Intertwined Branch or because of that night’s affection. In the end, Lin Moyu didn’t bother to figure it out. Since Gu Hanyu was already his person, he should bring her back. He had once said that after establishing himself in the Eastern Continent, he would go marry her. Many years had passed since he said that. "After returning from the Western Continent, let’s go to the Southern Continent." Lin Moyu sighed softly in his heart. Feeling the comings and goings of people in the Commercial City, Lin Moyu’s thoughts scattered far and wide. Not only did he think of Gu Hanyu, but also of Ning Yiyi and the others. He wondered how his wives were doing. Whenever he thought of this, Lin Moyu felt a deep hatred for that blue-robed old man. "Just you wait!" Lin Moyu thought viciously. This debt would have to be settled eventually. Several days later, the No. 3 Hurricane Warship appeared outside the Commercial City. Many people disembarked from the ship. Most of them were merchants who had brought back some goods from the Western Continent to sell in the Commercial City. Many people also boarded the Hurricane Warship, preparing to go to the Western Continent. Lin Moyu saw some people carrying the aura of the Realm Sea, clearly coming from the sea. "Sea race? Why are they here?" The sea race had always been self-sufficient, rarely interacting with the outside world. With this question in mind, Lin Moyu boarded the warship. The manager of the No. 3 warship, named Lu Xichuan, had received notice from Lu Lian early on and was waiting for Lin Moyu. His status was now very special. He didn’t even need to buy a ticket; he could board just by showing his face. And once he boarded, he would naturally be arranged in the best room. Lin Moyu met Lu Xichuan and bowed slightly, "Junior Lin Moyu greets Senior." Lu Xichuan hurriedly waved his hands, "Mr. Lin, you’re too polite. Don’t call me Senior, just call me by my name." Lin Moyu said, "Senior Xichuan, I’ll trouble you this time." Lu Xichuan repeatedly said, "It’s no trouble at all. The room has been arranged. Please follow me, Mr. Lin, and I’ll tell you about some situations for this journey."
