Chapter 4700: Chapter 4700: The World is So Small Chapter 4700: The World is So Small The Nine Lives Technique withdrawn, Lin Moyu returned from beyond the world. Heaven’s punishment had yet to dissipate, but Lin Moyu was having none of it he threw several punches, shattering the dark clouds and scattering the punishment. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶 His overwhelming force and dominance were on full display. The Wine Elder didn’t know what had changed in Lin Moyu, and didn’t ask, simply saying calmly, "Where will you go next, Lin?" Lin Moyu replied, "I need a secluded place for closed door cultivation. The great tribulation has fully erupted; perhaps in a few centuries it will reach its peak. At that time, it will be a turning point for some. Before that, I want to avoid the tribulation and everyone’s gaze." Wine Elder continued, "Have you found a place?" Lin Moyu shook his head, "Not yet." For him, any location would do as long as he remained in the Calamity Crossing Vessel, few could disturb him. Wine Elder said, "I too must return and guard my sect during this tribulation. If you don’t mind, Lin, come with me my sect may be modest but can offer a quiet chamber for your cultivation." Lin Moyu smiled, "But I’m the enemy of the world bringing me back is like inviting the wolf in." Wine Elder shook his head, "You’re joking. We both understand the truth none of the juniors in my sect would ever cross you, rest assured." Lin Moyu laughed, "Thank you, then." He didn’t stand on ceremony; Wine Elder’s sect was in the Central Domain, and that’s exactly where Lin Moyu needed to go. He still had one more formation left to refine for the Calamity Sovereign, located in the Upper Domain. To reach it, he’d have to pass through the Central Domain he had no desire to visit the Central Alliance, since his current status would stir up chaos wherever he appeared. After all, not everyone possessed the strong heart to lessen the influence of the tribulation as Wine Elder did. Wine Elder produced a green gourd, which emitted a cloud of green mist the space fractured, opening a unique spatial tunnel. He said, "This is a Space Gourd. Using it saves a great deal of time." He then brought out a flying vessel, invited Lin Moyu aboard, and the two sped into the spatial passage. Not long after they departed, Gold Sovereign also emerged from the portal. Once out, there was no return apart from Lin Moyu, no one could open the gate again. Gold Sovereign surveyed the surroundings, murmuring, "Tribulation... If I fail, I’ll drag you all to the grave with me." His tone was cold and deadly, each word shattering space. After he left, North Pole Sovereign and two others also emerged. All three wore grim looks they had never expected the place they’d worked so hard for countless years to enter would turn out this way. Though they’d gained something, their haul was meager; worse still, they’d been forced to swear oaths never to harm Lin Moyu. Now, the path forward in tribulation was cut off for them. But that was fate wrong choices led to wrong results. Wine Elder and Lin Moyu passed through spatial tunnels time after time. The Space Gourd could open tunnels spanning billions of miles; Wine Elder used quasi Sovereign power to drive the gourd, going at tremendous speed. At this rate, they’d reach the Central Domain in less than a month, overtaking even the current Little Peng. Once Little Peng regained his prime, he’d be even faster and could cross domains in mere hours. Wine Elder prepared food and wine; they ate and drank, chatting as they traveled. He talked of his sect, and Lin Moyu could only marvel at how small the world was. Wine Elder’s sect was Tang Divine Sect, once in the Western Region. Lin Moyu had crossed paths with its disciples before, helping them acquire the rare Dark God Pearl. When Lin Moyu asked why Wine Elder hadn’t claimed the pearl himself, Wine Elder shared a long story. He’d been to the Western Region, but a feud with a quasi Sovereign there made entering easy, escaping almost impossible his sect forbade him from risking it. As Tang Divine Sect’s hope and trump card, his survival ensured the sect’s safety; compared to the pearl, his safety mattered more. For countless years, Wine Elder searched for an opportunity to breakthrough. If he could become quasi Sovereign, he’d fetch the pearl himself. He said, "But before I broke through, the pearl was already retrieved. That astonished me the sect said someone helped us, but I don’t know who. I really must thank them." Lin Moyu laughed, "It was nothing, don’t mention it." Wine Elder was startled, then laughed heartily, "This world is truly small." Lin Moyu replied, "For some, the world seems limitless for others, it’s a toy in the palm." Wine Elder sipped wine and sighed, "Where you stand determines what you see." Lin Moyu said, "I want to see the higher places, but the road isn’t easy." Wine Elder chuckled, "Some paths aren’t forever blocked you’ll make it. You’re the most unusual person I’ve ever met no contest. Even the Sword Sovereign isn’t as remarkable as you." He held Lin Moyu in high esteem previously seeing Sword Sovereign as unmatched, now believing Lin Moyu was even greater. Lin Moyu laughed, "Don’t say that if she hears, she’ll beat me." Wine Elder blurted, "You know Sword Sovereign?" Lin Moyu said, "She’s Lin Mohan now reborn after disarmament." Lin Moyu and Lin Mohan... Wine Elder couldn’t help but laugh, "This world is truly small." As they traveled and chatted, they crossed the Arctic, traversed the broken wilds, and formally entered the Central Domain. Tang Divine Sect was in the western part of Central Domain only ten more days to reach it. Lin Moyu conversed with Wine Elder, pondering what he’d seen through Nine Heavens Fate. He finally witnessed what had flown from the deepest Chaos Wild the great calamity churned by his actions, the object destined to become its core. Its nature was akin to the wondrous flower at the heart of the last calamity whoever claimed it could, at minimum, breakthrough to Sovereign, and might even ascend to Supreme at once. The road to Supreme was never just one killing oneself, proving strength, winning the object; all are possible. The object had not yet fully revealed itself, traversing the void to a fated place. Lin Moyu was deeply interested, wanting to see what it truly was... [End of translation.]
