Chapter 4846: A Small Trap
In Lin Moyu’s eyes, there was no such thing as an unkillable foe only those that were easy to kill and those that were difficult.
The Primordial Savage Kings were surely powerful and very hard to slaughter, but truly unkillable?
He did not believe it.
Once, the Wild Beasts had also been deemed impossible to kill, yet they were still massacred by the countless.
The key was simply finding the right method.
A Jiu activated the Nine Heavens Dao Heart Stele and opened a passage for Lin Moyu to enter.
Inside, the stele contained its own space.
As soon as Lin Moyu stepped in, he saw a hundred mighty Dao heart Worlds coiled in the void, their interwoven connections forming a vast net that sealed a Primordial Savage King at its center.
The king’s form shifted constantly, wavering between illusion and reality sometimes like a dragon, sometimes a beast, sometimes mere mist.
It was not sleeping.
A single massive eye appeared and locked on Lin Moyu.
“So you finally came.”
Curiosity flickered in Lin Moyu’s gaze.
The words were almost the same as A Jiu’s; it felt as though this king had known he was coming.
“You knew I would come?”
The single eye became a pair, filled with savage ferocity.
“Of course.
“How could that old dog of Nine Heavens ever let us go so easily?”
The hatred in its voice was unmistakable.
It was a strange kind of hatred, as though it had been born with them like the inexplicable loathing Lin Moyu himself had felt upon first seeing any Primordial Savage Fiend, the urge to destroy them on sight.
It seemed that when they looked at him, they felt exactly the same way.
Between the Primordial Savage and Nine Heavens Divine Lord, there was clearly an innate, irreconcilable enmity.
“You have been sealed here for endless ages,” Lin Moyu said calmly.
“Do you have anything to say before you die?”
The king’s eyes multiplied into hundreds, and its low laughter thundered like storm clouds.
“Even that old dog of Nine Heavens could not kill us you think you can?”
“Yes,” Lin Moyu replied.
“Just me.”
The king laughed even more wildly.
“You cannot kill us.
“My Lord will return someday.
“My Lord will slay that old dog of Nine Heavens and you will not escape either!”
“The ’Lord’ he speaks of must be the one whose name A Jiu could not say,” Lin Moyu thought.
“So these Primordial Savage Kings are not the true final enemies.
“Their Lord is the real threat.”
“No matter.
“First, kill these kings.
“When Nine Heavens Divine Lord appears, all mysteries will be resolved.”
He flew into the grand array of interwoven Dao heart Worlds.
The Primordial Savage King instantly turned into dense mist, unleashing countless attacks at once.
At a single thought, Lin Moyu summoned the Infinite Divine Formation.
It erupted into being, a thought born array containing ten thousand Dao heart Worlds, rising like an immense wall before him.
The king’s strikes hammered the formation, making it thunder and shake but they could not break it.
“What formation is this?” the mist roared in shock.
“A formation that can butcher you,” Lin Moyu said with a light smile.
His will moved, and the Infinite Divine Formation shifted into the Infinite Slaughter Formation.
Ten thousand Dao heart Worlds roared in unison.
Boundless killing intent surged like a storm, and a colossal formation spirit emerged.
Lightning coiled in its palm as it blew out a wind of annihilation that gnawed at bones and souls alike, scattering the mist in an instant.
The Primordial Savage King shrieked in the lightning.
Its form warped again and again, condensing and dispersing as it struggled desperately within the storm.
“Impossible!
“Even that old dog of Nine Heavens could not kill us how can you kill me?”
Its screams were filled with terror and disbelief.
Lin Moyu merely shook his head and spoke almost to himself.
“Primordial Savage Kings are only hard to kill.
“With Nine Heavens Divine Lord’s abilities, do you really think he could not kill you?
“He merely chose not to.”
“With just a hundred Dao heart Worlds, he sealed you here for countless years.
“And you say he could not kill you?
“How laughable.”
He was certain the Divine Lord definitely had the power to destroy them; he had simply chosen to leave them alive.
Most likely, they had been set aside as a dish prepared especially for Lin Moyu.
Had he obeyed A Jiu and refrained from killing, he would have fallen right into that trap.
Hard to kill, yes but not unkillable.
Under the Infinite Slaughter Formation, the king was gradually worn down.
At most, a single day would be enough to crush it completely.
“Impossible!
“Impossible!
“You cannot kill this king!”
It howled without end, but Lin Moyu could hear that its bravado was hollow.
A being that had lived for endless ages, in truth, clung desperately to life.
Lin Moyu did not bother arguing.
Killing it was enough; there was no need for more words.
Whatever riddles lingered in his mind would naturally be answered once he met the Divine Lord.
After one day, the Primordial Savage King was finally forced to its end by the Infinite Slaughter Formation.
Lin Moyu vanished from within the array and reappeared in the hall.
The Nine Heavens Dao Heart Stele turned into a stream of light and sank into his body, and a wave of indescribable comfort washed over him.
The sensation was unlike anything before.
His soul and body underwent another baptism and began to strengthen again.
This time, the strengthening was different from all the previous times.
It was gentle, like a trickling brook, continuously nourishing his body and soul.
The growth was slow but unending.
And the source of it all was the stele the power that came from the hundred Dao heart Worlds within it.
These were Nine Heavens Divine Lord’s own Dao heart Worlds.
Together with the stele, they were like an enormous Dao heart source stone, slowly, gently strengthening his body, soul, and even his Dao heart itself.
A Jiu chuckled.
“Congratulations, you passed!”
“Thank you,” Lin Moyu replied.
A Jiu pointed ahead.
“Come with me.”
She led him out the back of the hall, where the divine road should have been.
At least, that was how it had been behind the first ninety halls, but now there was no road.
“What is going on here?” he asked.
“From this hall onward, the divine road is under my control,” A Jiu said.
“If you pass, the road opens.
“If you fail, there is no road.”
“You killed the Primordial Savage King sealed in the Nine Heavens Dao Heart Stele just now, so you passed.
“You received the reward and can now open the divine road to the next hall.”
Realization clicked into place.
“So that is why you were winking at me earlier…”
“Stop, stop, stop!” A Jiu flailed her hands, cutting him off.
“Do not say that out loud!”
“Cannot be spoken?” he asked.
She nodded hard.
“Mm, mm!”
“The Divine Lord’s doing?”
“Mm, mm!”
Exactly as he had guessed.
Nine Heavens Divine Lord had placed a restriction on her, forbidding her from saying anything directly.
If Lin Moyu had not killed the king whether because he simply obeyed instructions or because he had lacked the strength he would have failed the trial all the same.
“Why did he do this?” Lin Moyu asked.
“I do not know,” A Jiu said, shaking her head.
“But if the Divine Lord arranged it this way, he must have a reason.”
So this spirit really was obedient likely just bored after staying here too long.
“And the following halls?” Lin Moyu asked.
“They are the same?”
“There are eight more,” A Jiu answered.
She did not reply directly, but the meaning was clear.
“Then open the road.
“I will slaughter my way through them one by one.”
Hearing that, A Jiu looked delighted.
“Alright, I will open the divine road for you!”
She ran and hopped to the front, tapping lightly with her little hand.
A path of glowing radiance appeared out of thin air.
Together, they stepped onto the divine road.
The instant he set foot on it, Lin Moyu realized that this time, the road had changed dramatically.
