Chapter 2978: A Father's Feelings, Merging New Techniques

As the Calamity Scepter fell, Lin Moyu saw the change in the Outer God's eyes.

In its eyes appeared something called fear.

The previous killing intent and anger had subsided, with fear taking the lead.

"So it can also be afraid!"

"No living being can escape fear. The longer one lives, the more afraid of death they become."

"Unfortunately, your fear is useless. We are mortal enemies; it's either you die or I perish!"

These thoughts flashed through Lin Moyu's mind as the Calamity Scepter landed on the Outer God's head.

In an instant, the power of the ice and fire dao surged to the sky.

The Outer God's head was smashed to pieces before the Calamity Scepter.

The Calamity Scepter remained invincible. Even this Outer God with two pairs of wings couldn't withstand it.

Amidst the swirling ice and fire, Lin Moyu struck again and again until the Outer God was completely pulverized.

Its soul was absorbed by the soul gem, which then divided the absorbed soul equally among itself, the elemental gem, and the balance gem.

The Outer God's physical body completely dissipated, leaving not even dust behind.

This was true destruction of both body and dao, even more thorough than being scattered to ashes - not even ash remained.

The elemental gem gradually dimmed, returning to its previously unremarkable appearance.

The ice and fire disappeared, but the formation composed of ice and fire dao stones still existed, though it had lost its target.

Lin Moyu let out a long breath, "Finally resolved."

By now, eight minutes of the Dao Immortality Pill's effect had passed. In two more minutes, the pill's effect would wear off.

Two minutes later, Lin Moyu's body and soul simultaneously collapsed.

Accompanied by a purple light, Lin Moyu completed his rebirth.

Just as he recovered, the sound of a bell rang in his ears. The bell seemed to come from an infinitely distant place, carrying supreme majesty.

The moment he heard the bell, Lin Moyu's mind instantly calmed.

The dao reward had descended. Lin Moyu's consciousness instinctively sank into his soul world.

With the help of the dao reward, he naturally wanted to condense dao patterns.

This time, the dao reward came with unprecedented ferocity, combining the rewards from both the nine-tailed scorpion rat and the Outer God.

In the dao reward, six daos appeared: Undying, Thousand Stars, Time, Space, Power, and Fate.

The daos roared, showering powerful force that transformed into countless insights, pouring into Lin Moyu's mind.

Lin Moyu's understanding of each dao rapidly deepened. The 37th dao pattern was condensed in just ten minutes.

If he had to condense it himself, this dao pattern would have taken at least 200 years.

Comparing 200 years to ten minutes, the efficiency increase was truly astonishing.

Then came the 38th dao pattern, the 39th dao pattern...

One by one, dao patterns were continuously condensed with the help of the dao reward.

Lin Moyu's foundation was incredibly deep, and his requirement for the number of dao patterns was extremely high.

If it were someone else, this wave of dao reward could directly raise their realm by several levels.

But for Lin Moyu, it was difficult to even raise one realm.

Dao patterns were condensed one after another, their number steadily increasing.

Each additional dao pattern was equivalent to saving Lin Moyu hundreds of years of time.

In Lin Moyu's eyes, Outer Gods and divine beasts had become the best cultivation materials.

After experiencing such an astonishing cultivation speed, he couldn't possibly return to slow, gradual cultivation.

For him, the best cultivation method was to hunt Outer Gods and then cultivate using the dao rewards.

Only in this way could he reach higher realms in the shortest time possible.

Otherwise, at the current rate of condensing dao patterns, it would take at least three to four thousand years to raise one realm.

Of course, for a Dao Venerable, raising one realm in three to four thousand years wasn't too bad.

After all, a Dao Venerable under ten thousand years old could be called a genius.

But that was for others. Lin Moyu couldn't accept it. He had been cultivating for less than three thousand years so far.

Lin Moyu also understood why those geniuses of the past eventually gave up on the path of perfection.

It was because condensing dao patterns was too slow. If he had to cultivate step by step, perhaps he too wouldn't be able to persist.

This required an incredibly strong dao heart, an unwavering dedication to the dao.

This dao reward lasted for half a day. After half a day, Lin Moyu successfully condensed the 52nd dao pattern.

He was just two patterns away from the perfect 54 dao patterns.

The dao reward was nearing its end, but there was still a little left. Lin Moyu tried to condense the 55th dao pattern.

Suddenly, [Infinite Fusion] flashed with light, flying before Lin Moyu and transmitting a thought, "Dao, I want..."

Lin Moyu understood immediately and didn't hesitate at all, "Take it!"

[Infinite Fusion] burst with light, replacing Lin Moyu in receiving the remaining dao reward.

During this time, [Infinite Fusion] had been digesting spiritual materials, showing no movement.

Now that it suddenly moved, it meant the spiritual materials had been fully digested.

Lin Moyu sensed [Infinite Fusion] and found it had become much stronger than before.

Lin Moyu thought to himself, "It has indeed become stronger, but it's not perfect yet. Has it not digested thoroughly enough? It seems it wants to use the dao reward to help itself fully digest the power of the spiritual materials."

"The little one is growing. It's much stronger than when it first appeared."

Watching [Infinite Fusion] grow stronger, Lin Moyu had the illusion of an old father watching his child grow up, feeling an inexplicable warmth in his heart.

A moment later, [Infinite Fusion] absorbed the last of the dao reward.

Its light grew stronger and stronger as the power of the spiritual materials was thoroughly digested and absorbed, completing the fusion.

In [Infinite Fusion]'s light, a dao faintly appeared.

This dao was very peculiar, neither illusory nor real. Lin Moyu had never seen it before and couldn't identify it.

He couldn't even be sure if it was a dao at all.

But he was certain that [Infinite Fusion]'s power had greatly increased, much stronger than before.

Years of absorption and digestion hadn't been in vain.

[Infinite Fusion] flew around Lin Moyu twice, like a happy child, then flew towards the technique stars.

Lin Moyu knew it was going to merge with the technique stars.

Lin Moyu didn't stop it. From past experience, the technique stars merged by [Infinite Fusion] only benefited him, with no drawbacks.

So Lin Moyu had extreme trust in [Infinite Fusion].

[Infinite Fusion] first flew to the [Time Curse] technique star, spewing a mist onto it. The mist transformed into a large hand, dragging the technique star away.

Then it flew to the [Undead Wings] technique star, similarly spewing mist and dragging it over.

Afterwards, [Infinite Fusion] turned into a large pot, containing both technique stars.

Lin Moyu had seen this scene many times.

"Merging Undead Wings and Time Curse, I wonder what kind of technique it will become."

Lin Moyu felt some anticipation. The merged technique would surely be better than before.

These two techniques might undergo a complete transformation, becoming much more powerful.

Sounds like frying food came from the pot, rumbling continuously.
