Catastrophic necromancer

Chapter 3725: Not Strong Enough

As Lin Moyu gave the order, a giant with the attributes of the five elements appeared in the Soul Void. The giant’s four legs were ablaze with fire, embodying the Fire Great Dao. Its head was formed from the Earth Great Dao, its body from the Wood Great Dao, and water flowed through its internal channels, representing the Water Great Dao. Its weapon was a long spear made from the Metal Great Dao.

The five elements were interdependent, amplifying each other’s power and unleashing the full potential of the elemental forces. The terrifying aura emanating from the giant shook the void, dispersing the chaotic mist within a radius of millions of miles. Countless nearby virtual beasts fled in fear.

Although this formation was based on the Thousand Paths and Myriad Images Formation, Lin Moyu didn’t use all the Great Daos’ power. He only employed the five elemental Great Daos—Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, and Earth—which were the most common in the Soul Void. The Four-Armed Tribe’s world also possessed these elemental forces, allowing the five-element giant to exert its full strength.

Because only the five elemental forces were used, the formation’s structure was simpler and more stable.

The small python asked: “Master, will this giant work?”

Lin Moyu replied: “We’ll know after trying.”

He opened his storage space and brought out Xiao Xiong, the spirit of the Questioning Fruit Mirror. After the mirror’s destruction, Lin Moyu had stored Xiao Xiong away.

Xiao Xiong respectfully greeted Lin Moyu, ready to receive orders. Lin Moyu instructed Xiao Xiong to test whether it could control the five-element giant.

As an artifact spirit, Xiao Xiong was somewhat different from an Formation spirit, but they shared commonalities. Lin Moyu had considered this when setting up the formation. The Water Great Dao was inclusive and had a strong capacity for containment.

Xiao Xiong entered the five-element giant and merged with the Water Great Dao. The previously still giant began to move, initially slowly but gaining speed and agility over time.

Xiao Xiong excitedly reported: “Master, it’s working!”

Having been an artifact spirit for countless years, controlling the five-element giant was like gaining limbs for Xiao Xiong, making it feel alive.

Lin Moyu dropped the World-Burning Fire onto a long bench formed by the giant. The formation and the fire both bore Lin Moyu’s aura, so there was no conflict between them.

With the World-Burning Fire’s enhancement, the giant’s spear became even more powerful and fierce.

Lin Moyu pointed towards the Four-Armed Tribe’s world: “Go, take it down!”

“Understood!” Xiao Xiong exclaimed, controlling the five-element giant to charge forward.

As it approached the Four-Armed Tribe’s world, the world’s will activated, manifesting a six-armed giant. The six-armed giant slapped wildly, and Xiao Xiong, filled with excitement, swung the spear to meet it.

The two giants clashed, their impacts echoing like thunder through the void. The aftermath of their battle created an absolute domain, making it difficult even for Great Dao Lords to approach.

Despite Lin Moyu’s best efforts, the five-element giant gradually fell behind. This was within Lin Moyu’s expectations; he never thought the five-element giant could defeat an entire world.

Even with nascent spiritual intelligence, the world’s will was too powerful for a mere formation to match. The purpose of this battle was to understand the world’s will.

Lin Moyu gradually grasped the world’s will’s strength. A spiritually intelligent world will could gather the power of the entire world. Any living being within the world, whether willing or not, would have their power utilized by the world’s will.

Therefore, to confront the world’s will, one must first leave the world. Both the physical body and soul had to depart; it was futile to try to oppose the world’s will while still within it.

As for destroying the world from within, it seemed unrealistic given the current situation. The world’s will of the Origin Continent would certainly be much stronger and more difficult to handle.

Lin Moyu muttered to himself: “My previous thoughts were correct; the best way to deal with the world’s will is to use another world’s will.”

“The plan remains feasible, but the difficulty is not small. I hope my luck improves.”

“I should make some arrangements on the Origin Continent, but evading the world’s will’s surveillance will be challenging.”

“If I’m not mistaken, the Lord of Hell was killed by the world’s will, but it wasn’t the world’s will itself that acted. Instead, it was a powerful being left over from the previous era. This is something I must guard against.”

The Lord of Hell was very strong, and whoever could kill him must be equally powerful. However, upon reflection, the Lord of Hell’s existence had threatened the world’s will, reaching a peak that necessitated the world’s will to intervene.

This meant that the agents sent by the world’s will wouldn’t be stronger than the Lord of Hell. On the Origin Continent, the Lord of Hell would certainly face suppression from the world’s will, and how much of his strength he could exert was unknown.

So, the Lord of Hell died with a sense of injustice and frustration.

Lin Moyu wondered how many powerful beings from the previous era remained, a matter that required consideration.

In this moment, Lin Moyu realized that a battle with the world’s will was inevitable. The same applied to the Third Ancestor and others; unless they were willing to become the world’s will’s puppets, they would have to fight.

Both sides were justified, but only one could survive; there was no choice.

Through this battle, Lin Moyu gained a deeper understanding of things he previously didn’t comprehend, and his Dao heart became more resolute.

Xiao Xiong controlled the five-element giant, striking the six-armed giant repeatedly with the spear. The World-Burning Fire ignited the six-armed giant, but its effect was minimal.

The six-armed giant ignored the World-Burning Fire, even when its entire body was engulfed. The fire couldn’t truly burn into the world, being blocked by the world’s barrier.

This made Lin Moyu realize that the World-Burning Fire wasn’t strong enough. Unless it could directly burn the world’s core, it wouldn’t have a significant impact, not even being able to breach the world’s barrier.

“I still need to find a way to enhance the World-Burning Fire. It’s not useless; it’s just not strong enough yet.”

“My formations also need to be strengthened. If the plan works, I might not need the formations, but if it fails, they can serve as a backup.”

“My cultivation realm must also continue to improve. The realm is the foundation of everything.”

Lin Moyu thought of the Discernment Beast and sent a mental message to Xiao Xiong: “Return, there’s no need to fight anymore.”
