Chapter 4710: Chapter 4710: Overthinking It Chapter 4710: Overthinking It After the previous round of strengthening Linguistic God World and gaining deeper insight into world durability, Lin Moyu had basically confirmed its current tier. Linguistic God World was not low level; slightly stronger than the Chaos Wasteland, likely a five or six cycle world, but still far from a seven cycle. Fortunately, it had not fully solidified yet, so with the right control, he could still push it up to a seven cycle world or even higher. This time, he had obtained another seven cycle world. Not only did World Burning Fire grow stronger, but Linguistic God World could also gain huge benefits from refining it. Still, Lin Moyu wasn’t certain it would break through smoothly and undergo a qualitative change. Hongmeng Gem said, "There’s no need to rush. If this still isn’t enough, just find another world. There aren’t many above seven cycles, but there should be some left." Lin Moyu replied, "You know my goal. Seven cycles is just the baseline." His ideal goal was nine cycles for Linguistic God World, but that was extremely difficult and could not be forced. At the very least, it had to reach seven. He felt only with a seven cycle world or higher could he hope to resist the Forbidden Zone’s power and perhaps step into a realm no one had ever reached. The path was set. All he could do now was grind forward, hoping Little Tree would find enough worlds so he could refine them one by one and complete the upgrade before Linguistic God World faced its first major tribulation. Several days later, the ice fire beast’s roaring stopped refined completely, leaving only a huge pile of rule crystals. This world’s rules were simple, almost all concentrated in the beast, so the number of crystals was astonishing. They could strengthen Linguistic God World’s rule power and balance its structure. World Burning Fire grew hotter and stronger, refining faster and faster, so Lin Moyu ordered it to slow down to give himself time to comprehend the rules. Even so, it took only a little more than ten days to finish refining this seven cycle world. When it finally broke apart, a return passage appeared, and Lin Moyu plunged in. World Burning Fire dragged the world core’s shell along with Lin Moyu into the channel starting their journey back. This time, the return wasn’t urgent; Little Tree’s passage was very stable, and even as the world collapsed behind them, the channel held firm. Within the passage, Lin Moyu watched a world vanish with his own eyes, like a soap bubble popping no matter how powerful it had been, the end was emptiness. In the endless Forbidden Zone of Life, the destruction of one world didn’t even cause a ripple. The annihilation wave rolled by, erasing all traces as if that world had never existed. Lin Moyu couldn’t help sighing. "No matter how mighty you once were, it all ends the same." Hongmeng Gem said, "In the Great Catastrophe, every world is treated the same no exceptions." A thought suddenly struck Lin Moyu. "Tell me, how many times do you think these Great Catastrophes have happened?" Hongmeng Gem froze; he clearly had never considered it. "No idea." Lin Moyu continued, "If this isn’t the first Great Catastrophe, then did you exist before? If there were earlier ones, were there also this many worlds then? And this many living beings and powerhouses if so, in what form did they exist? If you treat each Catastrophe as an era, are you from this era alone, or did you survive other eras?" Hongmeng Gem clutched his suddenly "aching" head. "Master, your questions are terrifying." Lin Moyu shook his head with a faint smile. "Terrifying? I don’t think so." Hongmeng Gem said, "I’ve never thought that deeply. We live in the present. The distant past might matter, but if it’s too far back, there’s no point digging into it. All I know is: when you cross the Forbidden Zone, you’ll dodge the next Great Catastrophe. Maybe then you’ll find the answers." Lin Moyu laughed freely. "You’re right. I am overthinking. There’s no need to obsess over everything. Live in the moment and take each step well." He sounded a bit self mocking. After everything in the Great World and the three eras of Origin Continent, his mind had grown more complicated. This particular Great Catastrophe might be linked to him, but if there were older eras before it, they had nothing to do with him at all no point worrying. This place wasn’t like Origin Continent: there was no world will, no scheming. Compared to that, the current situation was much simpler and more direct. Only strength mattered. With enough power, he could open a path; everything else was illusion. Back in Linguistic God World, Little Tree swayed slightly. "Master, you’re back. Was everything smooth?" Lin Moyu nodded. "Everything went well." Two branches trembled on Little Tree’s body. The leaf Lin Moyu had used was no longer transparent; with his return, the passage collapsed, and the leaf began to wither. "Will the withered leaf affect you?" Lin Moyu asked. "Don’t worry," said Little Tree. "It’ll grow back soon. No impact at all." Leaves blossomed and withered like cycles, not harming the tree itself. The total number of leaves wouldn’t change unless Little Tree itself became stronger, in which case new leaves would appear; if it weakened, it would lose them. Lin Moyu nodded. "Then keep looking for worlds. I’ll stay busy on my side." Little Tree answered, "Yes, I’ll keep searching with everything I have." Lin Moyu stepped away and arrived in an empty void, then pulled out the seven story pagoda’s empty shell. "Heaven Shattering Earth Rending!" He cast a profound art; the pagoda detonated, and a life filled light cluster emerged. Repeating an old process, he enacted creation splitting heaven and earth and channeled all the newborn world power and primal qi into Linguistic God World. The Balance Gem shone, stabilizing the world and its rules. All rule crystals were drawn out and slowly fused in. Linguistic God World began growing stronger again. Little Tree shook continuously, benefiting alongside it. A new branch slowly sprouted, also bearing three growing leaves. Little Tree’s roots grew denser, burrowing deeper into the Forbidden Zone of Life to absorb its annihilation force, then transforming it into world power. Part went to itself; part became soul power for Lin Moyu, and another part went back into Linguistic God World.
