Chapter 4649: Your Power is Too Weak
To speak so brazenly on the territory of a quasi Sovereign, Lin Moyu was not so much bold as he was truly confident.
The Nine Suns Sovereign's expression grew cold. "Do you know you're a public enemy of this world?"
Lin Moyu responded, "Aren't you asking what you already know? You act like you don't know how I became the world's enemy."
The Nine Suns Sovereign clearly recalled what happened, his expression changing dramatically. "You did it on purpose?"
Lin Moyu replied, "Not bad. If I kill you, maybe I can prove my Dao. Want to try?"
Try?
The Nine Suns Sovereign hesitated he truly couldn't gauge Lin Moyu's depth.
Though Lin Moyu only looked to be at the peak of the Chaos Realm, his combat power far surpassed that. Wanting to kill him would not be easy.
But if he didn't fight, countless more would die.
As the Eastern Extreme's quasi Sovereign, he knew the creatures of the Fire Sea were critical they were the root of the East.
Many of the area's beings were born from the Fire Sea. If they all died, the Eastern Extreme would be irreparably weakened.
Should he stop him?
The Sovereign wanted to stop Lin Moyu but didn't dare make the move he was torn.
Golden flames appeared another arrived beside the Nine Suns Sovereign, the same quasi Sovereign who'd previously fled the Bug Queen.
This was the Goldfire Sovereign one of the three quasi Sovereigns in the Eastern Extreme (beside the Nine Suns, the Goldfire, and the Soulburn Sovereign; their leader was Sovereign September).
Softly, he spoke, "Nine Suns, let's take him together."
The Nine Suns Sovereign didn't answer neither agreeing nor refusing.
Lin Moyu ignored them, searching for the passage within the Fire Sea as he said, "You have ten breaths to decide for yourselves."
For a peak Chaos Realm cultivator to say such things to quasi Sovereigns was incredibly disrespectful.
Both Sovereigns seethed inwardly but dared not reprimand him.
Lin Moyu had his confidence: if he made threats, he could back them up.
The Nine Suns Sovereign suddenly asked, "What are you here for?"
He hoped Lin Moyu would finish his business quickly and leave.
Lin Moyu paused. "Right, since you know this place, tell me there should be a passage here, maybe hidden, and with a sealed entrance."
"How do you know that?!" the Nine Suns Sovereign blurted in shock.
This secret was known to only three people in the East himself, the Goldfire Sovereign, and his sister, Sovereign September. No one else knew.
Lin Moyu replied, "So you do know. I'm here to find that passage. Take me to it save me some effort, save you some lives."
"Impossible!" barked the Nine Suns Sovereign, flatly refusing.
Lin Moyu said, "So clean a refusal. Fine, I'll find it myself. If I have to turn the entire Fire Sea to wasteland in the process, don't blame me."
The Sovereign's face darkened with anger; murderous intent flickered in his red eyes.
But Lin Moyu paid him no mind, walking through the Fire Sea in search the pagoda in his hand didn't light up, so the passage wasn't here.
Ten breaths soon passed. The Nine Suns Sovereign did not attack.
Nor did the Goldfire Sovereign.
But their hesitation didn't affect Lin Moyu's resolve.
He said softly, "Time's up. If you won't leave, I'll have to send you away myself."
With a thought, the Shadow Bug Queen attacked, crossing time and space to appear before the two Sovereigns.
Though they had prepared, it didn't matter much.
Both armored up in flame and took out their treasures.
They counterattacked with blasts of power, but the Queen's legs sharp as blades passed through their attacks unhindered.
The attacks seemed to be there but existed in different temporal layers, only returning to reality at the very moment of contact.
Their efforts failed the Queen's attack pierced their armor, sending them flying, their armor barely cracking but swiftly healing under firelight.
The Nine Suns Sovereign shouted, "It's the Shadow Bug! It wields the power of space and time. I'll distract it you kill Lin Moyu!"
"Alright!" the Goldfire Sovereign replied, leaping into the Fire Sea and vanishing.
The Nine Suns Sovereign took out a barrel shaped artifact, suspended it above, and shouted, "Seal!"
Fire surged, encircling the void, locking down all space and time, trapping the Shadow Bug Queen though only for a few breaths. But to a quasi Sovereign, a few breaths was enough for much.
While the Queen was trapped, the Goldfire Sovereign rushed across the sea and rematerialized before Lin Moyu, intent on killing him for both justice and the chance to perfect his Dao.
Eyes filled with excitement, greed, and hunger for power, he summoned his treasure and let loose his strongest blow quasi Sovereign power shook the heavens and shattered space.
Lin Moyu looked on, cold and unmoved. "The Nine Suns Sovereign is clever to send you to die," he said.
The words unsettled the Goldfire Sovereign, but his move was already made.
Lin Moyu didn't bother to dodge or strike back. He didn't even pause, letting the attack hit him squarely.
Such a hit could have gravely wounded a Sovereign, or obliterated a lesser cultivator instantly.
Lin Moyu was engulfed in flames countless spectral beasts and blades hammered his body, aiming to pulverize him.
But he emerged unharmed he'd weathered the full onslaught, his original intent to test his own domain's effect, but it never even activated.
Goldfire's expression changed drastically: "Impossible!"
Lin Moyu's eyes revealed his disappointment. "Your power is too weak."
Since his domain couldn't be tested, he tried a different technique "Ultimate Undying!"
Infusing his spell, field, and divine power, a mighty force surged through him if he'd broken through the Sovereign's limit, he wasn't sure, but at that moment, his body and soul became undying, impervious to all force.
Not hesitating, he swung a single fist.
A massive fist smashed through the Fire Sea, extinguishing the flames in its path.
Before the punch landed, Lin Moyu's soul attack struck first.
Goldfire howled in agony; his soul was shaken not badly injured, but dazed for a moment and that instant was fatal.
