 **Chapter 2792: It's Not Walking, It's Floating Together**

As Lin Moyu's words fell, the power of the origin erupted, forcibly countering the force pressing down on him.

The power surged like a giant wave, pushing upwards in waves.

Gradually, Lin Moyu began to float. Although he was only a little off the ground, at least he was no longer touching the stones.

Lin Moyu controlled his height, floating just half an inch above the stones, slowly moving forward.

Seeing this, the Holy Maiden of the Immortal Lotus couldn't help but say, "Lin Daoyou is indeed clever."

Lin Moyu's approach seemed foolish, but it was the best solution he could think of in a short time.

The key point was that the Holy Maiden of the Immortal Lotus had never considered that the restrictions pressing on her could be countered.

She had always thought that the restrictions were rules that had to be followed.

This reverse thinking had never occurred to her.

Lin Moyu's approach opened her mind, showing her that she didn't need to follow the rules rigidly.

As she pondered, a powerful aura rose from Lu Fengyao.

Lu Fengyao also began to float, moving forward like Lin Moyu.

The Holy Maiden of the Immortal Lotus no longer hesitated, activating her power to counter the restrictions pressing on her.

She floated up, even higher than Lin Moyu.

She quickly flew forward, soon catching up with Lu Fengyao.

With her higher realm and stronger power, catching up to Lin Moyu was a matter of moments.

A force descended, and the restriction suddenly strengthened, causing her height to drop slightly.

Reacting a moment too late, her feet touched the ground, leaving footprints before she floated up again.

The stones she touched turned to powder.

The Holy Maiden of the Immortal Lotus seemed startled, floating even higher this time.

In an instant, an even stronger restriction pressed down, forcing her back to the ground.

Two more footprints appeared, and the stones turned to powder again.

The Holy Maiden of the Immortal Lotus calmed herself, carefully countering the restriction to float again.

This time, she didn't dare to fly too fast, slowly floating forward.

As she moved, the restriction on her body fluctuated, sometimes strong, sometimes weak, causing her to bob up and down in the air.

Fortunately, her slow speed allowed her to control herself without touching the stones again.

The Holy Maiden of the Immortal Lotus finally realized that the higher she floated and the faster she moved, the more power she consumed, and the more the restriction fluctuated.

She needed more power to counter it, reducing her precision.

If she floated lower and moved slower, the impact would be less.

She finally understood why Lin Moyu floated so close to the stones.

It wasn't that he couldn't float higher, but that he shouldn't.

It wasn't that he couldn't move faster, but that he shouldn't.

He needed to give himself enough time to react.

"He figured it out but didn't say anything," the Holy Maiden of the Immortal Lotus felt slightly annoyed, thinking Lin Moyu had deliberately kept it to himself.

Looking at Lu Fengyao, she saw that Lu Fengyao was also floating close to the stones, moving forward like Lin Moyu.

Both of them were constantly adjusting their power levels, clearly countering the restriction.

"Did you tell Fengyao, or did she figure it out herself?"

Lu Fengyao's actions indicated she knew what to do.

It was unclear whether Lin Moyu had told her or if she had figured it out on her own.

There was no time to dwell on this. The Holy Maiden of the Immortal Lotus imitated Lin Moyu, controlling her power to float close to the stones and move forward. As the strongest prodigy of this generation, her talent, comprehension, and power control were top-notch.

What Lin Moyu did wasn't difficult for her. In no time, she had mastered it.

"This way, it's much easier to control."

"How did you figure it out?"

The Holy Maiden of the Immortal Lotus looked at Lin Moyu's back, finding this mid-level Heavenly Sovereign very interesting.

Lin Moyu hadn't fully explained. His judgment of the path wasn't entirely a guess.

Everyone thought the stones had become fragile due to countless years of erosion by death energy.

Lin Moyu, highly sensitive to death energy, noticed that the stones contained no death energy, not even on their surface.

In other words, the stones' fragility wasn't due to death energy.

This was a crucial basis for Lin Moyu's judgment that the path was a test.

The death energy on the path was just a disguise.

Dongfang Wuwen and the Holy Son of the Myriad Illusions didn't realize this and fell into the trap.

Whether walking or floating would make a difference, Lin Moyu wasn't sure.

He floated steadily towards the end of the path.

The mist ahead obscured Dongfang Wuwen and the Holy Son of the Myriad Illusions, leaving only their footprints.

Gradually, their footprints diverged.

Initially parallel, their footprints began to angle differently halfway down the path, as if they had taken different routes.

But looking around, there were no other paths, and they had mysteriously disappeared.

Looking back, Lin Moyu saw Lu Fengyao and the Holy Maiden of the Immortal Lotus still in sight, their paths unchanged.

Further back, the figures of the Third Ancestor and others were completely obscured by the mist.

Even their auras were undetectable.

Only the faint presence of the ninth-grade origin spirit vein remained, but even that was weak.

Lin Moyu knew he had entered the territory of the God-Slaying Sect, isolated from the outside world.

Lu Fengyao caught up, "Why did you stop?"

Lin Moyu pointed to the footprints on the ground, "Look at the footprints."

Lu Fengyao frowned, "They separated here?"

She looked around, "But there's no path here."

The Holy Maiden of the Immortal Lotus floated over, hearing Lu Fengyao's words and seeing the footprints.

Her expression turned strange, "No path, where could they have gone?"

Lin Moyu shook his head, "I don't know. The only thing certain is that they have separated."

Lu Fengyao said seriously, "Let's stick together and not separate."

The Holy Maiden of the Immortal Lotus immediately nodded, "Together."

Lin Moyu chuckled, "Not walking, floating together!"

With that, he floated forward again, looking completely unconcerned, in stark contrast to the serious expressions of the Holy Maiden of the Immortal Lotus and Lu Fengyao.

The three floated forward side by side, maintaining a height just an inch above the stones.

As they floated two-thirds of the way, mist suddenly rose ahead.

The mist spread rapidly, enveloping the three.

Lu Fengyao lost sight of Lin Moyu, even losing her sense of him, feeling as if she were alone in the world.

Her heart tightened, and she immediately called out for Lin Moyu.

But she found her voice couldn't travel through the mist, swallowed entirely.

Her anxiety grew, realizing why Dongfang Wuwen and the Holy Son of the Myriad Illusions had separated.

In the mist, it was impossible to discern direction.

At that moment, a rope suddenly flew through the mist. Lu Fengyao, quick-eyed and quick-handed, grabbed it.

The rope carried Lin Moyu's aura, giving Lu Fengyao a sense of relief.
