Chapter 4403: Forcibly Bestowing Karma

The Wine Sovereign produced a wine cup, pouring fine wine from his gourd. “I won’t view for free take this cup as my thanks.”

Lin Moyu said, “Senior, you are too generous.”

The Wine Sovereign shook his head, “There is always karma. Others may owe me, but I owe no one.”

With karma involved, Lin Moyu had no way to refuse, so he accepted the cup.

The Wine Sovereign said, “You can save this wine drink it once you possess a domain…”

Before he could finish, Lin Moyu had already swallowed the wine.

Instantly, the aroma flowed out from within Lin Moyu, and four domains manifested behind him.

The Five Realms Domain led the center, largest and strongest.

Next was the Great Thousand World slightly weaker but still a true completed domain.

The Science Dao and Mysterious Spirit Domains were the weakest, especially Science Dao, which was just a sapling.

The wine’s essence spread through the domains, passing through infinite space, raising their auras on the spot.

This stunned the Wine Sovereign, who exclaimed, “Little friend, you actually have four domains?”

Lin Moyu had not expected his domains to emerge; he didn’t like revealing this, at least not yet. But since it was out, he acknowledged it openly, “Just lucky, Senior. I only gained these domains by chance.”

The Wine Sovereign shook his head, “No need for modesty. Owning four domains isn’t just luck or chance. You must be from the domains, and should have undergone at least five ascensions when you broke into the chaos realm.”

Lin Moyu nodded slightly there was no point denying, better to be open.

The Wine Sovereign said, “To possess a domain at entry into chaos means you are certain to reach Full Completion as long as you don’t die. But to have four domains and five ascensions, you may even one day vie for the Supreme seat.”

Lin Moyu said, “Senior flatters me. The Supreme position is so distant.”

He spoke honestly: it was distant, but also inevitable.

There should be nine Supremes in chaos, and there was currently one vacancy. That spot was his to claim.

The Wine Sovereign said, “All it gives you is qualification. There are many with that in chaos but whether you succeed depends on yourself.”

“I have no fate with the Supreme seat. But meeting you is fate, and since I can’t help much, let me at least add a bit of karma.”

He tapped his gourd, and a tide of fine wine rushed out, flooding the void with fragrance so potent Lin Moyu nearly swooned.

In the Calamity Boat, Little Peng collapsed from just the smell, already drunk.

The Wine Sovereign brought out another gourd, identical in form to his domain treasure but not itself a domain treasure; it was golden, not green.

“Collect!”

With a word, the golden gourd sucked up the entire ocean of wine, and he handed it to Lin Moyu. “This wine is yours drink whenever you like, it will strengthen your domains.”

Lin Moyu knew this wine was unimaginably precious, a treasure for enhancing domains.

All Full Completion experts sought ways to strengthen their domains; such wine was priceless.

This was a considerable karma gift, but forced onto him; even if he didn’t want it, he must accept.

Lin Moyu was both pleased and helpless it was what he needed, but the karma…

“An elder’s gift cannot be refused; thank you, Senior.” There was no other option but to accept.

The Wine Sovereign laughed, “It’s not a gift just binding a thread of karma. Maybe one day you’ll help me.”

Lin Moyu thought to himself, “Is Senior aiming for quasi Supreme?”

The Wine Sovereign was briefly surprised. “You know a lot did the Supreme who sent you tell you that?”

Lin Moyu didn’t deny it. “I know a little, but not much. If Senior is willing to discuss it, I am ear.”

He was polite; someone who survived countless epochs and reached peak completion must know nearly everything a living encyclopedia of chaos and ancient desolation, far richer than Little Peng’s bloodline memory.

The Wine Sovereign glanced at the two domain beasts he was still refining. “There’s still time. Let’s chat.”

With a sweep, he produced a round stone table not a magic treasure, just a plain stone slab about five meters in diameter, loaded with dishes.

Amused, Lin Moyu saw it was set as a proper feast.

The Wine Sovereign said, “Best place to talk is the wine table. If there’s wine, there should be food! This is much more practical than those tea sipping poseurs.”

Lin Moyu nodded. “Senior is right!”

“Wine’s ready pour for yourself, the food’s here, help yourself. Let’s eat and chat.”

As he drank and snacked, he said, “After Full Completion, there’s only one path left the Supreme. But the number of Supremes is limited. I tried for the vacant seat, but it was hopeless had I pushed, I’d be dead.”

“If the Supreme path is closed, there’s only one other road: quasi Supreme.”

Lin Moyu said, “As far as I know, quasi Supreme isn’t equal to Supreme.”

The Wine Sovereign retorted, “Who says quasi Supremes are lesser?”

Lin Moyu was momentarily lost, took a sip, then replied, “That was just my own assumption.”

The Wine Sovereign sighed. “Maybe to Supremes, quasi Supremes seem lesser but not to me.”

Lin Moyu immediately said, “Senior, please enlighten me.”

The Wine Sovereign explained, “Supremes are chaos’s most ’perfect’ beings: body, soul, power, Dao, all flawless but none quite at the absolute apex, always a tiny step short.”

“Becoming a Supreme has two prerequisites: first, the domain must be strong enough strong enough to leap from Full Completion to Supreme.”

“How strong? There’s no fixed standard, but in my experience, at least five times the power of a ’perfect’ domain.”

“As for what a perfect domain is, do you know?”

Lin Moyu shook his head. Even if he did, he would have said no; he wanted a thorough answer from the Wine Sovereign.

The Wine Sovereign, sipping, said, “Then let me explain in detail…”

He talked at length; Lin Moyu understood why he was so willing the answer was karma.

Every bit of knowledge, every piece of advice, was a thread of karma. Should the Wine Sovereign need a favor someday, Lin Moyu would find it hard to refuse.

Of course, this was because the Sovereign valued Lin Moyu. For others, he probably would have sent them away.

Listening, Lin Moyu’s understanding of the chaotic cultivation system grew ever clearer.
