Chapter 4764: I Leave Him to You
The backlash force flew into the void, pierced through space, and vanished without a trace.
The Calamity Great Venerate's expression suddenly changed as he shouted sternly, "What did you do?"
He had thought everything was about to succeed, but Lin Moyu's actions shattered his expectations.
Lin Moyu had not borne the formation's backlash at all and had instead sent that backlash into the void, destination unknown.
The Fate Venerate laughed softly at the side.
"Fellow Daoist Lin truly had a backup plan."
Lin Moyu smiled.
"Senior, do not be anxious.
It was just a bit of backlash.
Lin merely sent it where it ought to go."
"If Lin has not misjudged things, this formation actually has thirteen sub formations.
There is still one more sub formation, which should lie in that direction."
Lin Moyu pointed into the distance, toward the very direction where he had just sent the backlash force.
The Calamity Great Venerate realized something, and his expression changed drastically.
"How dare you!"
The grand formation behind Lin Moyu shattered with a roar, as if torn apart by some immense force, collapsing entirely.
This also meant that all the great formations arranged throughout the Primordial Chaos Wilds had been destroyed.
At this moment, the Calamity Great Venerate's face was unspeakably ugly.
His whole body trembled, making him look extremely agitated.
Lin Moyu said, "This thirteenth formation is your clone, and the hiding place of your subordinates, is it not?"
"After you became the supreme powerhouse, you intended to replace every Great Venerate in this heaven and earth with your own people, did you not?"
"Unfortunately, they should all be dead now."
Back then, many had joined the Calamity Great Venerate in his schemes and arrangements.
Aside from a few Great Venerates, there were also beings like Tian Xuzi and the old Divine Phoenix Ancestor.
The Calamity Great Venerate had promised them that once things succeeded, he would grant them the position of Great Venerate.
Once he became the supreme being, the Great Venerates of this world would all be subject to his word.
Those who would not listen could simply be killed.
Although Lin Moyu did not have direct proof, he had still guessed this much.
Since the Calamity Great Venerate wanted him to bear the backlash, he had simply redirected it.
Backlash that could severely wound Great Venerates would certainly kill those people if they took it head on.
The Calamity Great Venerate's expression turned as dark as ink.
"How did you know?"
Lin Moyu laughed.
"Your formation skills are indeed not bad, but unfortunately, still inferior to mine."
"If you can arrange these formations, it is only natural that I can alter them.
Backlash must be borne by someone.
Since I do not wish to take it, I naturally have to find someone else."
"And conveniently, you had indeed prepared a group for that purpose.
If they are not used, would that not be far too wasteful?"
The Calamity Great Venerate took a deep breath, forcing himself to calm down.
"Good, very good.
This Venerate still underestimated you.
This chess piece has already jumped off the board and become a player."
Lin Moyu shook his head.
"No, you are wrong.
This piece that is Lin has long since laid out a new game.
You have been a piece in this new game for quite some time."
The Calamity Great Venerate said coldly, "Fine.
It is true that this Venerate miscalculated this matter and let you take advantage, but do you think this means you have won?"
Lin Moyu said, "Do you still have other methods?"
The Calamity Great Venerate replied, "Of course there are.
They are more than enough to deal with you."
The Calamity Great Venerate had always acted cautiously.
While he plotted against others, he naturally also considered all sorts of possible outcomes.
Likewise, he prepared multiple backup plans to respond.
The Spacetime Sword in his hand buzzed loudly as he drew it through the air twice, slicing open spacetime.
From the rift in spacetime, another Calamity Great Venerate walked out.
In an instant, two Calamity Great Venerates appeared in the void, both bearing the same aura and both incomparably powerful.
He then sliced open another rift in spacetime, and yet another Calamity Great Venerate emerged.
After the second time, the temporal essence embedded in the sword cracked apart and turned to dust.
Lin Moyu said, "Summoning yourself from different timelines is indeed a fine method, one others could not replicate even if they wanted to."
Only someone who had completely mastered the Great Dao of Time and possessed temporal essence stones could summon different timeline versions of themself.
This method was exceedingly dangerous.
Different versions of oneself from different timelines standing together would easily trigger a resonance of the soul, causing soul disorder madness at best, death at worst.
At this time, the power of time flowed over the Calamity Great Venerate's body.
He held a time essence stone in his hand, and with the power of that stone, he temporarily blocked the dangerous resonance among his souls.
Lin Moyu looked at him.
"To have found so many time essence stones, your luck really is something."
The Calamity Great Venerate snorted coldly.
"It is not over yet.
Today this Venerate will show you what is meant by backup trump cards!"
He swept his arm and shouted sharply, "I am master of time.
Ancient battle spirits of all ages, heed my command appear!"
In an instant, a region of the void was cut out, and within it, time reversed, spanning billions of miles in a flash.
This region seemed to reflect the Primordial Chaos Wilds of an ancient era.
Within it, countless powerful beings fought and contended, including the Chaos Desolation Dragon and "Dao."
The temporal imprints they had left in this world manifested at this moment, summoned forth by the Calamity Great Venerate's power over time.
Though not as strong as the true bodies, they were still extremely powerful.
The Calamity Great Venerate said coldly, "I know you command endless puppets, but this Venerate can summon countless battle spirits as well.
In front of this Venerate, you have no advantage."
"Furthermore, your battle spirits…"
He pointed a finger at Lin Moyu.
"Temporal Shackles!"
Time belonging to Lin Moyu suddenly slowed.
The undying spirit soldiers he had summoned were affected and their speed dropped drastically.
Lin Moyu's body trembled as soul power surged out of him, directly shattering the Temporal Shackles.
He returned to normal, but the undying spirit soldiers were still several times slower and could not break free of the Calamity Great Venerate's shackles of time.
The Calamity Great Venerate said, "To think you could actually escape the Temporal Shackles, but you will still die today."
Lin Moyu sighed.
"In truth, your opponent is not Lin, but another."
The Calamity Great Venerate was taken aback.
"Who?"
"It is me!"
A sword light came speeding from afar, slicing through the void and arriving before the Calamity Great Venerate in an instant.
His face changed dramatically as he lifted his sword to block the strike.
With a thunderous boom, the Calamity Great Venerate was blasted back, flying ten thousand miles before barely stabilizing himself.
His expression turned ugly as he stared at the newcomer.
"It is you!"
Lin Mohan looked at the Calamity Great Venerate with icy eyes.
"Long time no see, Brother Calamity."
As she spoke, she waved her hand and tossed over a human head.
The head tumbled through the air and landed in front of the Calamity Great Venerate.
Though it was only a head, it emitted a powerful aura.
The will within had yet to dissipate, and the resentment surged to the heavens this was the head of a Great Venerate.
"Heiyun!"
The Calamity Great Venerate could not help but shout in shock.
What Lin Mohan had brought was none other than the head of the Black Cloud Heavenly Venerate.
Black Cloud Great Venerate had been his most loyal subordinate, his most trusted confidant.
He had never imagined that Lin Mohan would sever his head, meaning that Heiyun had fallen.
Murderous intent boiled in the Calamity Great Venerate's eyes as he glared at Lin Mohan.
"To think you have reached such a realm."
Lin Mohan smiled.
"For that, I must thank you, Brother Calamity, for your grand arrangement.
Without it, I would not have obtained such an opportunity."
Lin Mohan's appearance took the Calamity Great Venerate completely by surprise.
He had plotted against countless people, yet had never factored Lin Mohan into his calculations.
Previously, Lin Mohan had been the Great Sword Venerate, and upon returning remained the Great Sword Venerate, seemingly irrelevant to his plan.
He had not expected that at this moment, Lin Mohan would no longer be any weaker than he was.
Lin Moyu stretched lazily.
"Big Sis, I leave him to you."
Lin Mohan laughed.
"Watch as your elder sister cuts him down!"
With a sweep of her sword, sword light surged to fill heaven and earth.
"One Sword to Sever Dao!"
