Chapter 2240: Want Me to Bow Down? No Way
The space gate opened repeatedly, and the two of them traversed tens of thousands of light-years, leaving the human star region.
Following the straight line drawn earlier, Lin Moyu began his search.
He continuously opened space gates, limiting the distance of each gate to 10 light-years, while simultaneously releasing a massive number of Skeleton Generals to conduct a carpet search within this 10 light-year range.
Thanks to his previous training in the Xuanxing Secret Realm, Lin Moyu had an extremely precise grasp of spatial scales, with minimal error.
Lin Moyu felt a vague sense of unease. "What could the Black Blood Great World be planning? They've been setting this up for so many years. Besides the River of Time, what else are they trying to do?"
Lin Moyu's concerns were not without reason. His extremely sensitive soul was warning him that things were far from over.
Lin Moxuan said, "Think positively. At least we discovered their setup in advance. Just like the River of Time, their power hasn't yet reached its peak."
If their power had reached its peak, those setups would have been activated long ago.
Lin Moyu said, "We'll take it as it comes."
For now, they could only respond to each move as it came. Before coming here, he had returned to the human race and informed the Human Emperor of his suspicions and judgments.
The Human Emperor immediately activated the formations to protect the entire human star region.
At the same time, the Saint Lords and Old Star all went on alert, ready to face a great battle at any moment.
The incident with the River of Time had already taken them by surprise.
The Human Emperor analyzed a massive amount of data and found that Lin Moyu's words made sense. The existence of the dark void was not simple.
All the star regions of various races had been emptied, leaving the star systems very sparse.
After more than ten days of searching, they finally made a discovery 10,000 light-years away from the human star region.
In the dim starry sky, there was an area densely packed with debris and remnants.
A great battle had once taken place here, shattering the stars into countless fragments that drifted in this area.
This area was inconspicuous. In the vast starry sky, such areas were common, and normally no one would come here.
Lin Moyu found traces of the Black Blood Great World here, including the presence of polluted blood, identical to the polluted blood in the dark void.
Lin Moyu stood before the polluted blood, eyes reflecting deep thought. "The fifth batch of polluted blood..."
"When they summoned the River of Time earlier, it didn't activate, but I have a feeling it's connected to the other batches of polluted blood."
He summoned the star map again, connecting the fifth batch of polluted blood to form a new star map.
It seemed nothing was unusual.
At this moment, Lin Moxuan lightly tapped a spot on the star map. "What if there's another one here?"
Lin Moxuan pointed to another end, also on the straight line that ran through the human star region, located at the other end of the line.
If there was another batch of polluted blood here, it would mean that six points of polluted blood formed a cage, completely surrounding the human star region.
Lin Moyu drew the lines but still felt something was off.
"Not just this, there must be more!"
With a thought, the lines on the star map extended further, eventually reaching different areas.
Lin Moyu was suddenly shocked. "The Four Battlegrounds!"
Lin Moxuan softly said, "It should be. It indeed connects to the Four Battlegrounds."
Lin Moyu said, "Let's go back and inform the Human Emperor."
The space gate opened, and the two returned at the fastest speed.
The Four Battlegrounds - Zhuque, Xuanwu, Qinglong, and Baihu!
The history of the Four Battlegrounds also dates back to ancient times, extremely distant.
In the Four Battlegrounds, there are many imprints left from ancient battles. Lin Moyu had once discovered mysterious manors, ancient battlefields, and strange beings that had survived from ancient times.
Lin Moyu didn't understand before, only knowing that resources could be obtained and training could be conducted in the Four Battlegrounds.
Now, thinking back, the resources of the great world are difficult to regenerate. The only place where new resources might appear is the Four Battlegrounds. Clearly, for the great world, the Four Battlegrounds are also a very special existence.
Why they are special, Lin Moyu didn't know.
In Lin Moyu's plan, the Four Battlegrounds were also included.
After completely severing karma, the human race would send a massive number of gods to the Four Battlegrounds to bring back a large number of resources, further enhancing the human race's luck. The combined star regions of the Four Battlegrounds are larger than the star regions occupied by the human race. If the Black Blood Great World truly has arrangements within, searching will be extremely difficult.
Returning to the human star region, Lin Moyu immediately contacted the Human Emperor and informed him of his findings.
The Human Emperor began analyzing immediately, searching for answers through a massive amount of data.
This analysis took the Human Emperor a long time, a full day before he got an answer.
The answer was not far from Lin Moyu's guess. The Four Battlegrounds, the four dark voids, and the polluted blood connecting both ends of the human star region formed a giant net, completely enveloping the human star region.
Moreover, the Human Emperor obtained some information from extremely ancient records.
In ancient times, the Black Blood Great World had once triggered a Black Blood frenzy.
A sea of blood submerged vast star regions, devouring countless beings, and many human supreme beings died in the sea of blood.
The formation of the four dark voids was also related to that Black Blood frenzy.
According to records, the Black Blood frenzy required the use of world origin power.
Combining this with the current situation, the Human Emperor concluded that the probability of the Black Blood Great World triggering a Black Blood frenzy exceeded fifty percent.
Now the problem had become very troublesome. Lin Moyu no longer had Saint Lord corpses and couldn't continue to destroy the remaining polluted blood.
Currently, the great world has no supreme beings, almost rendering them helpless against the Black Blood Great World.
Even if they found the remnants of the Black Blood Great World, it wouldn't necessarily stop the Black Blood frenzy from happening.
Now, all the Human Emperor could do was reinforce the formations, in case a Black Blood frenzy did occur, to minimize damage.
Lin Moyu pondered for a moment and said in a deep voice, "I'll go find Tianlong."
The human race's understanding of the Black Blood frenzy was limited. Perhaps Tianlong would know more.
Moreover, he had the second Dragon Pearl. Even if Tianlong didn't give him face, he would have to give face to the Dragon Pearl.
Lin Moxuan softly said, "I won't go."
Lin Moyu nodded slightly. It was good that Lin Moxuan wouldn't go; she could focus on her cultivation. In case something happened, she could help.
At least she was currently the strongest combat power of the human race, stronger than Old Star and the Human Emperor.
The space gate opened, and Lin Moyu headed to the boundary at the fastest speed.
Each time, he crossed 10,000 light-years. Lin Moyu's current speed was second only to the Saint Lords of the Starry Sky Fish Clan.
Crossing hundreds of thousands of light-years, Lin Moyu rushed into the boundary and quickly entered Tianlong's domain.
Before he got close to Tianlong, he heard Tianlong's roar from afar, filled with anger.
Lin Moyu was slightly stunned. "Is someone fighting with Tianlong?"
But there was no sign of battle in the space. Tianlong was not fighting but arguing.
"Come with us."
"The punishment you've received here is enough. The elders have granted you permission to return."
"As long as you go back and admit your mistake, the past will be forgiven, and the elders will find a way to restore your Dragon Pearl."
A familiar voice came, and Lin Moyu saw the old familiar dragon, Shengguang.
Shengguang was currently transforming from a holy dragon to a divine dragon.
His appearance had changed somewhat from before, but he still needed some time to complete the transformation.
Tianlong glared angrily at Shengguang, "Go back and tell those old guys that even if I die, I won't go back."
"Want me to bow down? No way. Let them give up on that idea."
Shengguang said softly, "This world is about to be destroyed, with only a thousand years left. Why persist?"
Tianlong snorted coldly, "It's just death. And no one knows if this world will be destroyed. Those old guys just saw fragments of fate, which can't be trusted!"
