Chapter 3034: Men Die for Wealth, Strong Ones Die for Realm

An intense feeling of disgust rose in his soul. Lin Moyu knew there must be an Outer God here.

It was a real Outer God, not a divine pet.

Moreover, this Outer God was very strong, not much different from the one seen in the Ice and Fire Secret Realm.

Having encountered Outer Gods many times, Lin Moyu roughly knew how to judge their strength.

The simplest method was to judge through the feeling of disgust.

For many people, the disgust brought by Outer Gods might be the same.

But in Lin Moyu's perception, even the disgust brought by the dao had obvious differences.

From what he could tell so far, the disgust brought by divine pets was the weakest, while that of Outer Gods was much stronger.

The stronger the Outer God, the more intense the disgust.

This feeling brought by the dao couldn't be wrong. Lin Moyu trusted the dao.

But even with the same disgust, Lin Moyu still felt some differences.

Previously when seeing Outer Gods, while feeling disgust, the dao would issue orders, like assigning a mission that must be completed, to eliminate the Outer God or divine pet encountered.

But now, when the disgust arose, the dao didn't issue any orders.

In other words, even if he didn't eliminate this Outer God, it didn't matter. The dao wouldn't impose punishment.

From this, Lin Moyu immediately felt that this Outer God was unusual.

In the second layer of space on the 995th floor of the Purple Tiger Pagoda, Lin Moyu's gaze was like lightning, searching around.

He didn't see the Outer God. Although the disgust still existed, the Outer God wasn't here.

Lin Moyu asked with confusion, "Clan Leader Lei Tian, I sense the disgust, but I don't see the Outer God."

Lei Tian showed a bitter smile, "This is its special characteristic. Come, I'll explain as we walk."

Saying this, Lei Tian continued walking towards the depths of the second layer of space.

Lin Moyu observed the second layer of space. Besides the aura of the Outer God, there was another familiar aura here, belonging to the Beast Emperor.

Mastering the Space Dao himself, he was extremely sensitive to spatial changes.

He could sense that the first layer of space in the Purple Tiger Pagoda and the second layer of space they were in now were not created by the same person.

The one who arranged this second layer of space was the Beast Emperor, leaving the Beast Emperor's aura.

Lin Moyu asked, "If I'm not mistaken, this layer of space was arranged by the Beast Emperor, right?"

Lei Tian's eyebrows twitched twice, "I didn't expect Fellow Daoist Lin to see even this."

Lin Moyu smiled, "I've met the Beast Emperor once, so I can sense his aura."

Lei Tian's gaze showed slight surprise, "Fellow Daoist Lin's spiritual perception is truly incredibly keen."

The Beast Emperor had arranged the second layer of space thousands of years ago. The aura left behind had faded to the extreme, yet Lin Moyu could still sense it.

Lin Moyu smiled, "Please tell me, what exactly is the situation here?"

Lei Tian said, "Fellow Daoist Lin is so familiar with Outer Gods, it seems you've encountered them before. Then you should have some understanding of Outer Gods."

"Outer Gods actually have many types. The most common are those shaped like humans with wings. They have powerful combat strength, and the more wings they have, the stronger they are."

"There's another type that belongs to special Outer Gods. Their combat strength may not be as strong, but they have many strange abilities."

"For example, the Outer God here is a special type of Outer God."

This was the first time Lin Moyu had heard of special types of Outer Gods. It seemed he was still too ignorant.

However, he didn't show any expression, just listening quietly.

Seeing Lin Moyu not speaking, Lei Tian continued, "The Purple Tiger Pagoda and the Purple Pattern Origin share the same roots. They are both treasures of our Lightning Purple-Striped Tiger clan."

"The Purple Pattern Origin is the foundation of our power, while the Purple Tiger Pagoda is our strongest treasure to protect the Purple Pattern Origin. It's our clan's most important treasure."

"The Purple Tiger Pagoda is very powerful. As long as we have it, our Lightning Purple-Striped Tiger clan can stand unshakable."

Lin Moyu smiled, "It seems the Purple Tiger Pagoda is a Great Dao realm treasure. Although Great Dao realm treasures need Great Dao realm powerhouses to exert their full power, with the right secret techniques, they can indeed be invincible in the Dao Venerable realm."

"Outer Gods are all Great Dao realm beings. If you want to use the Purple Tiger Pagoda against it, it's probably not enough."

Great Dao realm treasures couldn't be used casually.

Without enough strength, one couldn't exert the full power of a Great Dao realm treasure.

Dealing with Dao Venerable realm beings was no problem, but against Great Dao realm beings, it would be insufficient.

Lei Tian's face showed worry, "Indeed. We didn't expect the Outer God to be so troublesome before. By the time we realized, it was too late."

In Lei Tian's narration, Lin Moyu finally understood what had happened.

Thousands of years ago, the clan leader of the Lightning Purple-Striped Tiger clan wasn't Lei Tian, but another ninth-level Dao Venerable powerhouse.

His strength was stronger than Lei Tian's, and he had obtained a more powerful thunder cloud.

During an exploration, he obtained a treasure.

This treasure had an Outer God sealed inside.

They knew that killing an Outer God would bring dao rewards. That clan leader had the idea of killing the Outer God to use the dao rewards to advance to the Great Dao realm.

But with his personal strength alone, he couldn't kill the Outer God.

So he brought the treasure sealing the Outer God back to the Purple Tiger Pagoda.

He wanted to use the power of the Purple Tiger Pagoda to kill the Outer God.

He had multiple clan elders together activate the Purple Pattern Origin, then use its power to drive the Purple Tiger Pagoda to kill the Outer God.

Unexpectedly, an accident occurred.

During the killing process, the treasure sealing the Outer God shattered, and the Outer God broke free.

At this time, the Lightning Purple-Striped Tiger clan realized what kind of Outer God they were facing.

It was an Outer God existing between reality and illusion.

Its combat strength wasn't strong, not at the Great Dao realm level.

But it had a strange ability - fusion.

It could fuse with various things and control the fused objects.

This wasn't possession. What it could fuse with was everything except living beings, like the Purple Tiger Pagoda.

It could fuse with the Purple Tiger Pagoda, becoming like the pagoda's spirit, ultimately controlling the Purple Tiger Pagoda.

Because it was a Great Dao realm being, it could exert the full power of the Purple Tiger Pagoda.

At that time, not only would the Lightning Purple-Striped Tiger clan be finished, even the beast race would face big trouble.

At that time, all the Lightning Purple-Striped Tiger clan could do was continue using the power of the Purple Pattern Origin to try to kill it.

Unfortunately, their power wasn't strong enough, and the Purple Pattern Origin they activated wasn't strong enough to kill it.

But it wasn't completely ineffective. That Outer God also found it difficult to truly control the Purple Tiger Pagoda.

Both sides began a tug-of-war lasting thousands of years.

The previous clan leader of the Lightning Purple-Striped Tiger clan voluntarily fused into the Purple Tiger Pagoda, battling the Outer God inside the pagoda to stop it.

Later they sought help from the Beast Emperor, who indeed had a way to kill this Outer God.

However, that method was unacceptable to the Lightning Purple-Striped Tiger clan.
