Chapter 3058: Every Action Has Its Cause and Effect
Western Continent, Buddhist Territory.
Among the myriad Buddhist nations, the central area was called the Buddhist Realm.
Within the Buddhist Realm were countless Buddhist nations, each representing an Ancient Buddha.
Under the Ancient Buddhas were many Celestial Buddhas.
Ancient Buddhas generally didn't manifest often. Usually, it was the Celestial Buddhas who appeared.
Celestial Buddhas were equivalent to human Celestial Venerables. In the Buddhist nations, their status was already quite high.
On this day, a huge Buddhist nation suddenly shook violently. Low roars sounded from within, and the aura spread throughout the entire nation.
In an instant, all followers in the Buddhist nation knelt on the ground, chanting scriptures, as if praying for something.
"Destroying this Buddha's treasure, this Buddha will surely kill you!"
"Issue the decree: From now on, upon seeing the Lightning Purple-Striped Tiger clan, subdue the demons!"
The Buddhist nation shook, and countless people received the decree.
With the decree issued, it meant that all Buddhist disciples in this nation would fight the Lightning Purple-Striped Tiger clan to the death.
Soon, this news would spread to the beast race and reach the ears of the Lightning Purple-Striped Tiger clan.
Even if no one spread it, the Lufen Trading Company controlled by the Third Ancestor would find ways to sell the information.
Information was valuable, especially news about both sides of an impending war was even more valuable.
The Lufen Trading Company didn't just sell goods; selling information was also one of their sources of income.
...
The Buddhist Lich extinguished the Buddhist thought remaining in the beads with three punches, consuming the beads completely, leaving nothing behind.
The Buddhist Lich's aura also rose to the peak of Six-Wheel Ancient Buddha, just one step away from Seven-Wheel Ancient Buddha.
This result, although not the best expectation, was acceptable.
After all, there was a huge gap between six wheels and seven wheels, not easy to cross.
No matter how special the Buddhist cultivation methods were, on the Origin Continent, their essence was no different from human cultivation methods.
It was the same for human Dao Venerables. Crossing from sixth level to seventh level was equally difficult.
That's why those above seventh level could be called seventh-level elders. It was a term of respect, and those who could attain it were extremely rare.
Like the Lightning Purple-Striped Tiger clan, which had inherited for countless years and was a royal clan with millions of members, they had no more than thirty elders above seventh level.
Now that the Buddhist Lich had reached the peak of Six-Wheel Ancient Buddha, if it disregarded the cost and sacrificed followers in its Buddhist nation, combined with Primal Water and empowered by belief power,
It might be able to burst out with Seven-Wheel Ancient Buddha combat power.
Combined with the Skeleton Hell, it would have the strength to fight head-on with seventh-level Dao Venerables.
Lin Moyu estimated his strength, showing a satisfied expression, and muttered to himself, "Need to find a chance to fill up the Buddhist Lich's Buddhist nation."
The Buddhist Lich's Eternal Buddhist Nation could accommodate 50 million followers.
But now, there were less than 3 million followers, not even a tenth of the total capacity, and there had never been a chance to replenish it.
The Eternal Buddhist Nation's requirements for followers were simple. It didn't need very powerful beings, just any living beings would do.
The souls of living beings after death could become followers.
But so many living beings couldn't come from nowhere. It depended on luck, whether a suitable opportunity could be found.
Putting away the Buddhist Lich, Lin Moyu took out the Five Elements Sword.
The Five Elements Sword was now sealed, its spirituality in a dormant state.
This sword could split into five, possessing the power of the five elements - metal, wood, water, fire, and earth. When formed into a sword formation, its power could rival eighth-level Dao Venerable.
However, the problem was that to fully control it required at least seventh-level Dao Venerable cultivation, which Lin Moyu was far from.
Moreover, it wasn't to say that a seventh-level Dao Venerable wielding it could challenge an eighth-level Dao Venerable. That would be seeking death.
You have a treasure, but don't eighth-level Dao Venerables have their own?
At most, it could be said that when facing an eighth-level Dao Venerable, one would have some ability to preserve one's life.
But these abilities were of no use to Lin Moyu.
Lin Moyu hugged the Five Elements Sword, "Everything in the world has its cause and effect. If you hadn't insisted on striking me with a sword, you wouldn't have ended up in my hands."
"It can only be said that this was your fate. A treasure with spirituality, who knows what kind of lich it will become."
As Lin Moyu said, at first he hadn't thought about taking the Five Elements Sword.
But it insisted on striking him with a sword before being satisfied. Since that was the case, he would oblige.
A flame arose from his palm, enveloping the Five Elements Sword.
Origin Technique: Summon Elemental Lich!
The Five Elements Sword began to vibrate with a hum. Its spirituality instinctively began to resist.
It resisted very violently. After all, it was a seventh-level Dao Venerable treasure with spirituality. It wasn't easy to evolve into an elemental lich.
Sword qi penetrated from the sword, emitting a powerful aura. Lin Moyu could feel its anger and unwillingness.
This trace of spirituality was very strong. Although it hadn't truly evolved into intelligence, for a treasure, having spirituality or not made a huge difference.
A origin thunder cloud appeared under Lin Moyu's feet. A trace of origin divine thunder was drawn out, falling into the Five Elements Sword.
The Five Elements Sword immediately trembled. Its small spirituality was paralyzed by the divine thunder, temporarily losing the ability to resist.
The Five Elements Sword gradually deformed in the flames, losing its sword shape, its sword qi dissipating.
Ten minutes later, the Five Elements Sword had returned to its origin, becoming a liquid.
The liquid contained all five elements. This liquid should be an extremely excellent material for forging.
There were too many types of materials in the world. Lin Moyu couldn't name them all.
The five elements liquid continued to change shape in the flames, gradually forming the shape of an elemental lich.
Twenty minutes later, a brand new elemental lich fully formed, flying out from the flames.
It looked only fist-sized, very small and cute.
But it emitted a sharp aura, its entire being like a sharp sword.
The newborn lich respectfully knelt suspended before Lin Moyu, showing submission.
[Five Elements Sword Lich]
[Realm: Sixth-level Dao Venerable]
[Grade: Perfect]
[Growth Limit: None]
[Techniques: Five Elements Sword Qi, Sword Dao]
[Five Elements Sword Qi: Can slash out five different types of sword qi to deal with different enemies.]
[Sword Dao: Connect with the dao power to raise one's realm. Can also borrow dao power to slash out Five Elements Sword Rain, once per hour.]
The Five Elements Sword Lich inherited the characteristics of the Five Elements Sword, but didn't inherit the Five Elements Sword Formation. Instead, it gained the Sword Dao.
This was also one of the abilities of liches after the Celestial Venerable realm - connecting with the dao.
Lin Moyu looked at the information, murmuring, "The Sword Dao can raise its own realm. Originally the Five Elements Sword Lich was at sixth-level Dao Venerable. After raising its realm, will it be peak sixth level or seventh-level elder?"
"The Sword Dao seems to be divided into two parts. The ability to raise realm seems to have no limit. But the Five Elements Sword Rain can only be used once per hour."
"Let's try it. We'll know after trying!"
With a thought, the Five Elements Sword Lich bowed to Lin Moyu before quickly flying into the distance.
Its speed was extremely fast, like teleportation, instantly covering a hundred miles.
It used its technique, and a brilliant dao appeared around it.
Within the dao, myriad swords floated, large and small, strong and weak, countless sharp swords dancing within the dao.
The Sword Dao enveloped its body. The Five Elements Sword Lich's aura suddenly surged, breaking through the bottleneck, stepping from sixth-level Dao Venerable into seventh-level Dao Venerable.

Also, just a heads-up: chapter releases may become a bit inconsistent soon as I’ll be undergoing surgery and recovering afterwards. I’m not sure how long it will take, but I’ll keep you posted.
