Chapter 2487: Meeting the Elder in the Green Robe Again
Beside the World Tree, the Coffin of Slumber had been quietly resting here for many years.
The soul and the World Tree together firmly guarded it.
No matter the storms outside, it remained unmoved.
As long as Lin Moyu did not die, the Coffin of Slumber would not be harmed.
Lin Moyu's gaze was lowered, his eyes filled with uncontrollable excitement, and even his body trembled slightly.
At this moment, Lin Moyu's emotions were not calm.
Today, he was going to open the coffin.
After many years, he was going to reunite with his wives.
But for some reason, he felt a bit worried.
So many years had passed, and he did not know what the situation inside the Coffin of Slumber was.
He did not doubt Antares' words.
But for some reason, he felt a vague unease in his heart.
Yu Qingrou and Yuzhu stood beside Lin Moyu, sharing his emotions at this moment.
Yu Qingrou comforted him, "Don't worry, the sisters will be fine."
Yuzhu also softly said, "Actually, we should be the ones worried, not knowing if the sisters can accept us."
Yu Qingrou chuckled, "Don't worry, husband said the sisters are all understanding and broad-minded."
Yuzhu nodded, "Yes, yes, there will be no problem."
Their words managed to ease Lin Moyu's unease.
Gently stroking the Coffin of Slumber, although he could not see inside, he could feel the presence of his four wives.
"Yiyi, Qianqian, Yun'er, Han'er, we are about to meet!"
A wisp of soul power flowed out, merging into the Coffin of Slumber.
Immediately, lines of patterns lit up on the Coffin of Slumber, and with a soft sound, the coffin that had been sealed for many years finally opened.
Yu Qingrou and Yuzhu were also a bit nervous, looking intently at the coffin.
Four auras rushed out from the coffin, and Lin Moyu's expression suddenly changed. With a wave of his hand, he directly lifted the coffin lid.
Yuzhu covered her mouth, her eyes full of disbelief.
Yu Qingrou was equally shocked, "How could this be?"
The coffin was empty, with no sign of Ning Yiyi and the others.
It wasn't completely empty; there was a square stone inside.
On the four sides of the stone, four patterns were carved, which Lin Moyu immediately recognized as representing Ning Yiyi and the others.
Lin Moyu's expression became extremely solemn, and he remained silent.
At this moment, his mind was racing, countless memories and thoughts flooding from the depths of his soul, considering all possibilities, yet finding no clues.
Ning Yiyi and the others were placed into the Coffin of Slumber by his own hands.
The Coffin of Slumber had always been in his soul world, never leaving.
His soul had always watched over the Coffin of Slumber, along with the World Tree and the Dragon Soul Crystal.
No one could have tampered with the Coffin of Slumber. If someone had, that person would be unimaginably powerful.
Lin Moyu immediately thought of the elder in the green robe from the Origin Secret Realm.
In his memory, if anyone had the ability to take Ning Yiyi and the others without his noticing, there were only two people.
One was the elder in the green robe from the Origin Secret Realm.
The other was the mysterious figure who had said to him, "Meeting three times means we are fated."
Apart from these two, there was no one else.
Lin Moyu immediately ruled out the mysterious figure from the land of the ancestral water.
They had never met, only having a fated encounter. It made no sense for that person to secretly open the Coffin of Slumber; it would be meaningless.
So the only one capable and likely to do this was the elder in the green robe from the Origin Secret Realm.
This existence, whose name could not even be mentioned, why did he do this?
Lin Moyu's mind was in turmoil, unable to figure it out.
"Why?"
"If it was really him, why did he do this?"
Unable to find any reason, Lin Moyu could only look at the only item in the coffin, a stone slightly larger than a fist.
The stone was square, with the images of Ning Yiyi and the others carved on its four sides.
With just a few strokes, the carvings were lifelike and vivid.
This was not just a matter of carving skill; it involved the soul.
Indeed, each side contained a wisp of their souls, which was why the Coffin of Slumber always had their presence.
If not for this, Lin Moyu might have discovered it earlier.
The top and bottom of the stone were also engraved with two patterns.
"Dao Patterns!"
Lin Moyu immediately recognized them as Dao Patterns.
The Dao Patterns looked simple but contained profound Dao Rhythms, exuding nobility.
Lin Moyu's heart stirred, and a wisp of soul power entered the stone.
The Dao Patterns were activated, and in the next second, an indescribable aura burst from the stone.
This aura carried a supreme will, instantly sweeping through the entire rule world.
Everything in the rule world stopped functioning.
Time in the rule world came to a halt.
The entire rule world fell silent. In the Bone Hell at the bottom, everything stopped moving, the flames ceased to erupt, and the rivers of hellfire stopped flowing.
The stars in the Great World at the top also froze, their light no longer shining.
Countless living beings lost all movement.
Yu Qingrou and Yuzhu beside Lin Moyu were frozen in place, unable to move.
The other spell stars were the same, no longer rotating.
[Infinite Fusion] seemed to have some movement but became incredibly slow, countless times slower than usual.
The World Tree stopped swaying, and the Ten-Colored Dragon Soul Crystal froze in place.
Only Lin Moyu remained unaffected, allowing him to sense everything happening in his rule world.
Just the remaining two Dao Patterns and a will could bring his rule world to a complete halt.
This power was beyond his imagination.
A small shadow projected from the Dao Patterns, quickly solidifying into the figure of the elder in the green robe.
"It really is him!"
As Lin Moyu had guessed, it was indeed the elder from the Origin Secret Realm.
The one who gave him the Origin spell, the one whom Antares dared not mention by name, the one who took the small world from the Great World.
The one who took Ning Yiyi and the others from the Coffin of Slumber without his noticing and left this stone.
This was a true powerhouse, far stronger than the mysterious master.
The elder in the green robe spoke kindly, "You have finally reached the Celestial Lord realm."
Lin Moyu's heart skipped a beat. This meant the elder knew he would defy fate for Ning Yiyi and the others once he reached the Celestial Lord realm.
Lin Moyu tried to remain calm, "You knew?"
The elder in the green robe looked at Lin Moyu, "There are few things in this world that can be hidden from me."
Lin Moyu took a deep breath and asked softly, "Why did you do this?"
The elder in the green robe replied frankly, "To give you some motivation. If you want to see them, then work hard to improve yourself."
Lin Moyu frowned. The elder's words implied that Ning Yiyi and the others were still alive and safe.
Considering the elder's abilities, if he could defy fate for the four of them, then the elder could do even more.
With just a flick of his finger, the elder could change the fate of Ning Yiyi and the others.
At this moment, the elder's figure blurred, and another figure appeared beside him, an old lady.
The old lady looked as kind as the elder, with a noble presence.
The old lady scrutinized Lin Moyu, making him feel a bit uneasy, like a son-in-law being evaluated by his mother-in-law.
Lin Moyu quickly bowed, "Greetings, senior."
The old lady nodded, "You are the husband of those four girls?"
Lin Moyu nodded, "Yes, I am."
The old lady frowned, "I have a message for you. If you don't meet my requirements, don't even think about seeing those four girls."
After saying this, the old lady disappeared, leaving naturally.
Lin Moyu was left bewildered. The old lady's tone didn't match her kind expression.
She looked kind but spoke so directly.
The elder in the green robe chuckled, "Don't mind her. She is my Dao companion and has a bit of a temper."
"The four girls have been taken as her disciples. Whether you can see them again depends on you."
Lin Moyu felt a thousand complaints in his heart. If you wanted to take disciples, just do it. Why take them from my Coffin of Slumber?
But there was nothing he could do now.
Knowing that Ning Yiyi and the others were safe, he no longer had to worry.
Changing the topic, he asked, "May I ask, senior, how are my teachers? When will Antares be able to come out?"
