Chapter 2889: Then Let's Fight, Even If It Means Death
Activating the stars within the Thousand Star Great Dao requires immense power.
The stars within the Great Dao have different attributes, requiring varying amounts of power.
But there are two types of power that are universal.
One is the power of the Great Dao, like the power that descends during a Great Dao reward, which is pure and without attributes.
The other is Lin Moyu's soul power.
Soul power, like the power of the Great Dao, lacks attributes, but the downside is that soul power is not as pure, and its strength is insufficient, with a limited total amount.
Even the soul power of a Dao Sovereign is limited and recovers slowly.
Reviving a star requires a massive amount of soul power.
Understanding this, Lin Moyu was overjoyed.
While others' soul power isn't pure, his is extremely pure.
Through the dual refinement of the Ten-Color Dragon Soul Crystal and the World Tree, his soul power has reached the utmost purity.
It may not be as pure as the power of the Great Dao, but compared to other Dao Sovereigns, it's far superior.
Next is the total amount of soul power; as long as he controls the consumption rate, he doesn't need to worry about running out of soul power, especially with ten great backers.
Lin Moyu chose a star, one that wasn't too powerful, and injected his soul power into it.
He didn't choose a too powerful star initially to increase the success rate and reduce the risk of failure.
The soul power smoothly injected into the star, and this star, dormant for who knows how long, began to shine again.
The light was faint, but as Lin Moyu continued to inject soul power, it was reviving.
In the Great Dao stars above the Origin Continent, in a previously empty space, a star suddenly appeared, beginning to pulse with light, and the power of the Star Lord began to spread outward.
Among the Great Daos, someone slowly opened their eyes.
"The Star Lord within the Thousand Star Great Dao is finally beginning to revive."
"Looking forward to it, the return of the Star Lord, I wonder if a new Dao Master will be born."
"Hopefully, a Dao Master will be born; looking forward to that day."
"The reappearance of the Thousand Star Great Dao, does it mean they will come again?"
"Perhaps, it's been so long, it would be normal for them to return."
"Prepare, another great battle is coming."
Outside Yudao City, Lei Guang, digesting Thunder Sword Grass, suddenly opened his eyes and looked into the distance.
A warship was approaching Yudao City, and even before it arrived, its powerful aura had already swept over.
Lei Guang murmured, "The Dragon Elephant Clan, they're coming again!"
The Human Emperor also appeared beside Lei Guang, along with the Giant Sword Dao Sovereign and Zhao Dongsheng.
The Human Emperor glanced at the warship, "Our previous guess was correct; they indeed have other tasks to complete."
The warship was damaged in many places, and its power had significantly weakened compared to last time.
Previously, the warship could match the Heavenly Thunder Fire Array, but this time it might not be so easy.
But the Dragon Elephant Clan's warship was never the main force; the true main force was the Dragon Elephant Clan Dao Sovereigns within the warship.
The warship stopped in the distance, not coming closer, indicating that the warship wouldn't participate in this battle.
Powerful auras rose as Dragon Elephant Clan Dao Sovereigns flew out of the warship.
There were four Dao Sovereigns in total: one at the Fourth Realm and two at the Fifth Realm.
These three were familiar faces, having fought before.
Another, who hadn't acted last time, had a Dao Sovereign Sixth Realm cultivation.
Lei Guang squinted, "They all seem to be injured."
The Human Emperor nodded, "Indeed, they're all injured, and there's one less."
The Dao Sovereign they fought before, the Fourth Realm one, wasn't there.
Judging by their injuries and the warship's damage, that Dao Sovereign likely fell.
Clearly, whatever they went to do wasn't safe.
The Human Emperor said, "Can you handle the Dao Sovereign Sixth Realm?"
Lei Guang agreed without hesitation, "Even if I can't kill him, he won't kill me either."
Lei Guang was confident in his strength; the Dragon Elephant Clan had strong defense but average attack power.
If he entangled with them, they couldn't do anything to him.
The Human Emperor said, "Alright, you take him, and I'll take the other three. Once I kill them, I'll come help you."
Lei Guang nodded, "No problem."
They discussed, but strangely, the Dragon Elephant Clan Dao Sovereigns didn't attack.
The Sixth Realm Dragon Elephant Dao Sovereign looked at the Human Emperor, "Are you the master here?"
He didn't attack but chose to speak, making the Human Emperor feel something was off.
The Human Emperor said softly, "Speak if you have something to say."
The Dragon Elephant Dao Sovereign's voice was still low, "We need to borrow your Origin Spirit Vein."
The Human Emperor immediately realized their intention; they wanted to use the Origin Spirit Vein to heal.
It seemed their injuries were more severe than they appeared.
They might have soul injuries; otherwise, mere physical injuries wouldn't matter.
Failing to seize the Origin Spirit Vein last time, they now wanted to borrow it, but the Human Emperor flatly refused, "Impossible, there's no room for discussion."
The Dragon Elephant Dao Sovereign continued, "Think about it again; we don't want to fight."
The Human Emperor said, "If you want to fight, go ahead; the Origin Spirit Vein won't be lent."
The Dragon Elephant Dao Sovereigns looked conflicted.
Suddenly, a voice came from the warship, "No need for words; he's not the owner of the Origin Spirit Vein."
A terrifying aura rose, and intense pressure came forward.
Lei Guang's face changed, "Dao Sovereign Seventh Realm!"
The lightning on his body was affected by the pressure, retreating.
The gap between the Dao Sovereign Sixth and Seventh Realms was vast.
This was a crushing power, hard to resist.
With the terrifying pressure, a Dragon Elephant Clan member flew from the warship.
He was severely injured, missing a leg and an arm.
His physical injuries couldn't heal, indicating his true injuries were soul-related, with the physical wounds just an external manifestation.
The Human Emperor finally understood why they hadn't acted initially.
First, they were injured and unwilling to fight.
Second, they feared mutual destruction, triggering the Origin Spirit Vein.
They wanted to use the Origin Spirit Vein to heal but feared its detonation, so they spoke nicely.
But when the Dao Sovereign Seventh Realm realized the Human Emperor wasn't the owner, their attitude changed.
Only the owner could detonate the Origin Spirit Vein, which the Human Emperor couldn't do.
This was realistic and normal on the Origin Continent.
If Lin Moyu were here, they would first kill him, not giving him the chance to detonate the Origin Spirit Vein.
Lei Guang gritted his teeth, "What do we do?"
The Human Emperor said, "We have to fight hard, see how long we can hold out, and not let them affect the Realm Lord."
"They're heavily injured, and their soul injuries mean we don't know how much power they have left."
The Human Emperor prepared to use all the contingencies Lin Moyu had set, including several Dao Sovereign Sixth Realm resurrected ones.
They could hold out for a while, regardless of the consequences, which he couldn't consider now.
He could only hope their injuries were severe enough to delay until Lin Moyu completed his breakthrough.
Lei Guang's eyes sharpened, "Then let's fight, even if it means death!"
He was ready to die in battle.
The Dragon Elephant Clan Dao Sovereigns' auras grew stronger, ready to act.
Especially the Dao Sovereign Seventh Realm, whose pressure was suffocating Lei Guang, even warping space.
Just as they were about to act, a sudden wind blew from afar, incredibly fast, silently passing over the Dragon Elephant Clan Dao Sovereigns.
