Catastrophic necromancer

Chapter 4093: If You Want to Fight, I’ll Accompany You

The Human Emperor did not linger. Making this decision was not easy for him, but once it was made, he would see it through with determination. Lin Moyu was not worried about whether the Human Emperor would give his all since he had decided to oppose the Lord of Curses, he would definitely go all out. If they failed to kill the Lord of Curses in one strike, they would make a powerful enemy for themselves.

The Human Emperor understood the gravity of the situation, so he would put forth his full strength perhaps even more ruthlessly than Lin Moyu. Moreover, the Human Emperor greatly desired the Spirit Control Technique. Ever since returning from that gate, he had obtained the Spirit Seizing Technique, trapped the Jianmu Emperor, and used the Spirit Grain to lay out the entire Great Spirit Domain. Now, he was just one step away from the final breakthrough how could he possibly give up? Thus, the Spirit Control Technique was his lifeline, a condition he could not refuse.

From the moment Lin Moyu had asked An Yuyan to deliver the message, he had calculated everything; all was within his grasp. The Human Emperor knew this too, and so entered the game willingly. As for whether Lin Moyu truly had the Spirit Control Technique, the Human Emperor could naturally tell there was no fooling him.

After the Human Emperor left, Lin Moyu returned to his previous routine: comprehending the Dao, observing the Great Thousand World, and cultivating the filth essence. A hundred years was not long; for someone at the level of a Great Dao Lord, it could pass in a single closed door cultivation. But this century was destined to be eventful, with visitors coming one after another.

Saint Heart visited several times, each time staying with Lin Moyu for a while before leaving again. As the Lord of Life, she had many responsibilities. The filth essence grew ever stronger, getting closer and closer to Lin Moyu’s expectations.

In the ninety second year, a sword aura burst into Burial Dao Valley the Sword Emperor returned, carrying killing intent.

As usual, Lin Moyu poured him a cup of tea. “Sword Emperor, you look travel worn. It seems you’ve gained something.”

In truth, the Sword Emperor’s expression was not good; Lin Moyu could tell he hadn’t succeeded, but he said this just as a courtesy.

The Sword Emperor looked around Burial Dao Valley, his expression strange. The valley had been reduced to ruins before, yet now it was restored. And the filth pool…

He transformed into a sword light and flew above the pool, seeing its increasing clarity and his own seal. But this was not the seal he had placed decades ago, but the one from millions of years ago. At the same time, he sensed that the seal he had set beneath the pool was compromised.

Realizing something was wrong, the Sword Emperor’s expression changed and he rushed toward the pool.

Just as Lin Moyu set his teacup down, a light sound was heard as the cup touched the table.

Whoosh!

A formation appeared above the pool, unleashing a terrifying force that blasted the Sword Emperor back. This was Lin Moyu’s formation, built atop Xuan Zhenzi’s and further enhanced so powerful that even the Sword Emperor would have a hard time breaking through.

Stabilizing himself in midair, the Sword Emperor glared at Lin Moyu. “What did you do!”

Lin Moyu replied, “I’m conducting an experiment. If it succeeds, it will solve the problem of the Dao Wild Beasts once and for all.”

The Sword Emperor’s face grew darker those Great Dao Lords from millions of years ago had said similar things.

His gaze turned icy. “Open the formation. I want to go down.”

Lin Moyu refused. “No.”

The Sword Emperor’s aura surged, sword cries filling the air, and a Great Dao transformed into a sword, hanging overhead as if ready to strike Lin Moyu at any moment.

Lin Moyu said, “If Sword Emperor insists on forcing your way in, I don’t mind fighting you. But you should know my strength you might not gain any advantage.”

As he spoke, space in Burial Dao Valley warped, and countless undead servants appeared in the void. At the same time, layers upon layers of formations manifested throughout the valley, each one formidable.

Lin Moyu had spent nearly a hundred years here not just meditating, but also fortifying Burial Dao Valley with all kinds of formations, arming it to the teeth. The formations covered not only the entire valley but also parts of the surrounding land. Even if the Sword Emperor fought here now, the valley would remain unharmed. Without Lin Moyu even acting, the formations and undead alone could hold the Sword Emperor off for quite a while.

Lin Moyu’s confidence in facing the Sword Emperor came not just from the Icy Jade Meditation Mat, but from his own strength.

The Sword Emperor looked at the overwhelming undead and, recalling that palm strike Lin Moyu had used against Tun Yuan, realized he had no real advantage. Considering Lin Moyu’s mysterious identity, the Sword Emperor’s aura weakened.

Lin Moyu said, “If you want to talk, come down and have some tea. We can chat. If not, then please leave, and when I’m done here, I’ll take you back.”

The Sword Emperor took several deep breaths, his body twisting as he struggled to suppress his rage. After a while, he finally calmed down and sat across from Lin Moyu. “What do you want to talk about?”

Lin Moyu gestured, “Have some tea first. There’s no rush; I’ll explain everything.”

The Sword Emperor took a sip and set the cup down with a snap. “Speak.”

Lin Moyu said, “I’m not like those seniors from millions of years ago. They were exploring, only speculating about the results of their experiments. But I know exactly what I’m doing, what the outcome will be, and what will ultimately happen.”

The Sword Emperor frowned. “Empty words. Why should I believe you?”

Lin Moyu replied, “Belief is up to you. In any case, you can’t stop me, and you can’t call in the other Spirit Demon Emperors for help. Why not just stay and watch my experiment? In a few more years, you’ll see the final result.”

The Sword Emperor seemed to consider Lin Moyu’s words. After a moment, he said, “Fine, I’ll watch and see what tricks you’re up to.”

Lin Moyu said, “If you want to watch, you can’t just watch for free I have a request.”

The Sword Emperor snorted, “Don’t push it. Do you really think I don’t dare fight you?”

Lin Moyu shook his head, “It’s not that you don’t dare, but that you’re not confident. Honestly, I can’t beat you head on, but you won’t have an easy time either. So let’s not say such things it’s just laughable.”

With every word, Lin Moyu reminded the Sword Emperor: fighting him wouldn’t bring any advantage, so there was no point in threatening.

The Sword Emperor gradually calmed down. “What’s your request?”

Lin Moyu said, “After this is over, help me deal with someone.”

The Sword Emperor snorted, “With your strength, you still need my help?”

Suddenly, he realized something. “You want to deal with an Eternal?”

Lin Moyu said, “That’s right an Eternal.”

The Sword Emperor said, “He can’t be killed, so why bother?”

Lin Moyu said, “No need to ask about the details. Eternals are indeed hard to kill, but not impossible. At least, I have a way. After this is done, I’ll take you through the Land of Severed Daos back to the Spirit Demon clan. And I promise, I’ll handle Tun Yuan he won’t survive.”

Lin Moyu offered some guarantees to secure the Sword Emperor’s help. In his plan, the Sword Emperor was an extra, not a necessity. Having him was just another layer of security, increasing the chances of success.
