Chapter 4013: Establishing Authority and Nurturing a World Spirit
The bloodlines pointed directly to the culprits, and the Third Ancestor showed no mercy, unleashing thunderous punishment from the Outer Great Dao. His Dao Lord level power erupted fully and fell with overwhelming force, not only killing the perpetrators but also annihilating the forces behind them on the spot.
The Third Ancestor acted with iron resolve, leaving no one who had bullied the Lu Feng Chamber of Commerce unpunished. In the process, many innocents were caught up as well, but the Third Ancestor showed no joy or sorrow. As a Dao Lord, he only cared about those he valued; to him, billions of lives were like ants, not worth his attention. What's more, he was no longer a native of the Origin Continent and cared even less about the consequences.
"So ruthless!" Many powerful figures on the Outer Great Dao witnessed this and only now realized that the Third Ancestor, as a Dao Lord and supreme being, would never reason with ants.
The Third Ancestor's ruthlessness was on full display. In the blink of an eye, he killed all those who had bullied the Lu Feng Chamber of Commerce and showed no sign of stopping. The octagonal pagoda in his hand grew ever brighter as he shouted, "Trace to the source!"
In an instant, the bloodlines flew back from the Origin Continent, heading deep into the Outer Great Dao. The Third Ancestor wasn't just killing those who bullied the Chamber of Commerce; he was going after the forces behind them as well. After all, without those backers, the small fry would never have dared to act.
If he was going to establish authority, he would do it thoroughly. Even after leaving, no one would dare make a move again.
The Third Ancestor traced the source and fought his way deep into the Outer Great Dao, igniting a fierce battle. His Dao Lord might was on full display, and the battle raged for two days, leaving rivers of blood and wiping out several mid sized factions.
With his actions, the Third Ancestor made it clear: mess with him, and he'd wipe you out. "Whoever dares to touch the Lu Feng Chamber of Commerce this is your fate!" His voice echoed across the Outer Great Dao and the Origin Continent, lingering for a long time.
Many who had been plotting now fell silent, too frightened to act. The Third Ancestor left in style, but whether he had truly gone, how far, or when he'd return no one dared guess. At least now, everyone knew the Lu Feng Chamber of Commerce was untouchable, backed by a fiercely protective and unreasonable Dao Lord.
The Third Ancestor left the Origin Continent and returned to the Soul Void. The plan was now two thirds complete, with only the final step remaining.
Lin Moyu sensed the lingering killing intent on the Third Ancestor. "Those guys must have thought you were dead, so they got bold, right?"
The Third Ancestor snorted, "That's why I killed a bunch this time to establish authority."
Lin Moyu asked, "How long will that authority last?"
The Third Ancestor shook his head, "No idea however long it lasts, it lasts."
He was quite carefree about it. Lin Moyu said, "If I go back, I'll help keep an eye on things for you."
The Third Ancestor replied, "Of course you will. Even if not for me, you have to do it for Feng Yao."
Lin Moyu smiled and nodded, "Alright, give me a strand of your soul."
The Third Ancestor cried out, "Again with the soul?"
Lin Moyu asked, "Is there a problem?"
The Third Ancestor shook his head, "No, just a reflex." He handed over a strand of soul, and Lin Moyu sent it into the core of the chosen world. Then, forming a complex series of hand seals, he called out, "Nurture Spirit!"
A strange power shot from Lin Moyu's hands into the world's core, wrapping the Third Ancestor's soul and sending it ever deeper, right to the very heart. Lin Moyu used his own soul power to stabilize the world core. This was no small feat he was nurturing a world spirit, or world will, and this world will would be controlled by the Third Ancestor. The first step was to implant the Third Ancestor's soul within it.
As Lin Moyu continued the Nurturing Spirit Art, the Third Ancestor asked, "How long will this take?"
"It depends on the world and the realm ten days to half a month, probably," Lin Moyu replied. It was his first time using it, so he couldn't be sure.
Twelve days later, both heard a sound, like a heartbeat. Thump, thump, thump! The heartbeat grew clearer, coming from the world core.
The Third Ancestor exclaimed in delight, "I've established a connection with the world core!"
Lin Moyu nodded, "It went more smoothly than expected. You've been infusing your power into it for years, so your aura was already present, making things easier. The world will is starting to form it'll take a long time, but you can recover here in the meantime."
"I have a Spirit Control Art here; it will let you control the world will." Lin Moyu gave the technique to the Third Ancestor. It was relatively simple one could master it in ten or twenty thousand years. The Third Ancestor also needed to bond with this world, as he needed a new anchor after leaving the Origin Continent. He would now become the world's master.
Lin Moyu clapped his hands, "Alright, I'm off to the next one."
The Third Ancestor was in good spirits. "I bet the others are getting impatient."
Lin Moyu replied, "They'll just have to wait their turn." With that, he left to find Shangguan Wentian, then Shen Chen, Mo Hei, and the Beast Emperor. Once they were done, only the World Sealing Dao Lord and Antares would remain. Lin Moyu figured Antares would be the trickiest he was a dragon, cultivating the Yang Dragon Great Dao, and there weren't many dragon worlds. If he really couldn't find one, Lin Moyu had a backup plan: he'd let Antares settle in the Great Thousand World and slowly build a suitable world there.
Three days later, Lin Moyu arrived at the world chosen by Shangguan Wentian. He'd already made preparations, and Shangguan's situation was much like the Third Ancestor's. Seeing Lin Moyu, Shangguan immediately said, "Looks like things went smoothly with the Third Ancestor."
Lin Moyu knew he must have sensed the Third Ancestor's "death" and guessed everything had gone well. He smiled, "The plan changed a bit, but it's even better now."
Shangguan's eyes lit up, "Tell me the details."
Lin Moyu explained the new plan in detail, now more experienced after the Third Ancestor's case. Shangguan trusted him completely and, after hearing the plan, immediately said, "Give me the Heaven Covering Stone and Immortal Jade I'll split my soul right away."
Without hesitation, Shangguan followed Lin Moyu's method, splitting his soul. Even as he cried out in pain, he couldn't help but shout with joy freedom was near, and he was thrilled!
