Chapter 2873: Wait Until Dao Sovereign Ninth Realm to Return
The golden-haired elder appeared without Lin Moyu noticing beforehand.
His spiritual sense did not react at all, indicating that either the other party had no malice towards him, or the other party's strength was so overwhelming that it surpassed the limits of his perception.
Lin Moyu couldn't sense the other party's realm at all, which made it even more terrifying.
He cupped his fists in salute, "Junior Lin Moyu greets the senior."
The elder smiled gently, "Little guy, I'm asking you a question."
Lin Moyu replied, "Yes, that half divine pet was killed by me."
The elder asked, "How did you kill it? Tell me in detail."
Faced with this unfathomable presence, Lin Moyu did not hide anything, "I used the Luck Great Dao to first weaken its luck, and then attacked it with my own luck to kill it."
The elder remained silent, seemingly pondering Lin Moyu's words.
After a moment, he suddenly sighed, "It's indeed a good method, but what a pity!"
Lin Moyu asked, "What is a pity?"
The elder said, "It's a pity that your realm is still lacking, and your understanding of the Great Dao is insufficient, so you can't kill that creature!"
He was referring to the extraterrestrial god suspended in mid-air.
Lin Moyu asked, "Senior, can you tell me what's going on here?"
The elder squinted, "Of course, in nearly a thousand years, you are the first person to come here."
"And you are the first to kill that guardian divine pet, so you have some privileges."
"Since that's the case, let me tell you what's happening." Lin Moyu perked up his ears, knowing he was about to hear some secrets.
The Thunder Secret Vault is both a secret vault and not entirely a secret vault.
Its existence can be traced back to prehistoric times, to the era of the God-Slaying Sect.
Back then, a powerful being at the Great Dao realm fought a battle here with an extraterrestrial god. Both were severely injured, and the extraterrestrial god had a strong recovery ability. The Great Dao realm expert knew that if it dragged on, he would be the one to die.
He sacrificed his life to activate the Eternal Shackles, imprisoning the extraterrestrial god here.
The Eternal Shackles not only locked the extraterrestrial god's physical body but also its soul, and even its pet was not spared.
The Great Dao realm expert originally had a chance to reincarnate, but he feared that over time, the extraterrestrial god would escape.
After all, the Eternal Shackles were only said to be eternal, not truly eternal.
Just as the Great Dao realm expert was said to be immortal, but not truly immortal.
He simply gave up the opportunity to reincarnate, sacrificing himself to form this space.
The Great Dao realm expert couldn't kill the extraterrestrial god, so he could only imprison it eternally.
As for the external secret vault, it was not constructed by the Great Dao realm expert but naturally evolved from the leakage of Great Dao power.
The Great Dao realm expert who imprisoned the extraterrestrial god is none other than the elder before him.
Now, only a remnant soul remains, as the elder himself has long perished.
This is the Great Dao realm; even a remnant soul can live for a long time, even eternally.
However, this kind of immortality is no different from being dead.
The Thunder Secret Vault was originally hidden in another layer of space, with no connection to the real world.
As time passed, the endless flow of months went by, and over three thousand years ago, the Thunder Secret Vault appeared on the Eastern Continent.
After the Thunder Secret Vault appeared, people began to enter.
Some reached the storm center, saw the divine pet, and even entered the interior.
There are many smart people in this world, and Lin Moyu is not the only one.
Among those who entered, the strongest was a Dao Sovereign Ninth Realm expert.
He also collected Thunder Stones but couldn't kill the divine pet because it couldn't kill him either, nor could it stop him.
He came here, saw the extraterrestrial god, but couldn't kill it either.
In the end, he had to leave the secret vault.
Later, two more people entered, two Dao Sovereign Eighth Realm experts, one human and one demon.
They also couldn't do anything to the extraterrestrial god and had to leave.
The elder's tone remained calm throughout, "The first Dao Sovereign Ninth Realm to enter came back once more, bringing some items related to the Thunder Great Dao."
"Although it wasn't much help, it was better than nothing."
"It's a pity that after so many years, we still can't kill this creature, and who knows how many more years this place can hold."
Lin Moyu looked at the extraterrestrial god suspended in the sky, "For now, the situation seems stable."
The elder shook his head, "What you see is only the surface, not the essence. Even if it can remain stable for tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands of years, as long as it doesn't die, one day it will break free.
By then..."
"But who knows what this world will be like then? Perhaps another great war will begin."
Lin Moyu wanted to ask what the great war was, but the elder gently shook his head, "No need to ask; your realm is still far off."
Lin Moyu asked, "Senior, after locking up the extraterrestrial god all these years, have you thought of a way to kill it?"
The elder said, "If I had thought of it, it wouldn't have dragged on until now."
Lin Moyu said, "I killed another divine pet before, but at that time, a Star Lord took action. I severely injured the divine pet with the Luck Great Dao, and the Star Lord killed it."
"If I use the Luck Great Dao to attack it now, can I kill it?"
The elder squinted and smiled, "Divine pets and extraterrestrial gods are completely different. Divine pets are like grass; even if bent, they can straighten again. If you use more force, you can crush them.
Extraterrestrial gods are like trees; you can't crush them just by stepping on them. You must use other methods."
Lin Moyu asked, "Can you tell me how to kill an extraterrestrial god, senior?"
Although the elder couldn't kill the extraterrestrial god, he surely knew how to do it, just couldn't achieve it.
As he said at the beginning, if his realm were higher, perhaps he could kill the extraterrestrial god.
The elder said, "To kill an extraterrestrial god, it's not that difficult. One way is to crush it with the Great Dao, but your Great Dao must be strong enough. I was at the same level as it, and my Heavenly Dao couldn't break its divine body."
Lin Moyu heard a term, divine body.
The difference between extraterrestrial gods and divine pets is the divine body.
Divine pets only have a trace of the divine body, which is already hard to kill.
Extraterrestrial gods have a complete divine body, and its defense is astonishing.
The divine body protects not only the physical body but also the soul, with almost no weaknesses.
Even using the power of the Great Dao, it's hard to break a divine body of the same realm, let alone a Dao Sovereign.
A Dao Sovereign only borrows part of the Great Dao's power, incomparable to the Great Dao realm.
However, Lin Moyu thought the Great Dao also depended on which Great Dao.
If it were the Primordial Great Dao, it might be different.
The elder continued, "The second method is also the Great Dao, but it's the Void Great Dao."
"The Void Great Dao has an advantage against extraterrestrial gods, even if one or two realms lower, it can break their divine body."
Lin Moyu understood; he had tried it, and it was indeed possible.
The elder said, "If you were now a Dao Sovereign Ninth Realm, perhaps your Luck Great Dao could break its divine body."
"Why not go back and cultivate, and return when you're a Dao Sovereign Ninth Realm."
