Chapter 3836: Mutual Scheming
"As expected, once you find the right method, they're actually easy to deal with."
These little creatures born from the Spacetime Spirit Realm weren't strong they only used the realm's spacetime power to attack.
The Spacetime Spirit Realm was jointly created by the Morning Bell Emperor and the Twilight Drum Emperor, so it was extremely powerful, and these creatures' attacks were impressive.
But the creatures themselves were weak. They existed within a relatively stable patch of space if you destroyed that stability, you could kill them.
Lin Moyu found the method and easily dealt with the little beast.
But this approach was something only he could do the Skeleton Generals couldn't. In the chaotic spacetime regions, any attack from the Skeleton Generals would be torn apart by spacetime, unable to reach the target.
So Lin Moyu stopped sending Skeleton Generals to their deaths and advanced personally.
The Spacetime Spirit Realm had no fixed direction; here, time and space overlapped and directions changed constantly. You might be flying straight ahead and suddenly be teleported somewhere else.
Not only did regions shift, but even direction itself could change at any moment.
After flying for a while, Lin Moyu experienced this several times.
He sent out a line of fire, but it would disappear before going far, only to reappear in another region the next second.
Sometimes the fire line was even cut apart, appearing in different regions sometimes close, sometimes far.
Except for when he first entered the Spacetime Spirit Realm, where there was some order, the deeper he went, the more chaotic it became.
After repeatedly failing to find a direction, Lin Moyu finally stopped.
With a thoughtful look, he mused, "This isn't the way. To find the right path, I need to understand the root cause."
"The Spacetime Spirit Realm was created by two Emperors, so the root must be their motivation for creating it."
"Emperors don't do meaningless things. At their level, the greatest and only pursuit is to take the final step."
"So their purpose in creating this realm must have been to take that step."
"But every eternal existence's final step is different. What's the point of them collaborating like this?"
Lin Moyu gradually found the root of the problem, thinking deeper, his gaze growing clearer.
"It must be about materials. When time and space intertwine and Great Daos collide, some special materials might be produced."
"The Void Soul Essence Stone is one of them. Besides that, there might be other materials too."
"In that case, I should head toward the places where spacetime is most chaotic. The more chaotic the spacetime, the fiercer the Dao collisions, and the more likely materials will appear."
Lin Moyu finally understood where to go he didn't need a specific direction, just to move toward the most chaotic Dao areas.
He could ignore random teleportations; after each one, he'd keep heading toward chaos, and he'd eventually reach his goal.
Sensing the surrounding spacetime chaos, he found the most chaotic direction and flew toward it.
On the way, if he encountered a little void beast, he'd use spacetime power to erase it.
He was teleported again and again, appearing in various regions, but each time he searched for the most chaotic spot and pressed on.
Gradually, he noticed the surrounding spacetime was getting more and more chaotic.
If the earlier chaos was a 1 out of 10, he was now moving through areas rated 10 to 20.
He kept pushing toward the most chaotic (20 out of 10) regions, getting ever closer to the core of the Spacetime Spirit Realm.
"Morning Bell, you dare make a move here!"
Suddenly, spacetime trembled and Lin Moyu heard a roar.
The voice came from the Lord of Time.
The previously calm tone was gone, replaced by agitation and anger.
Lin Moyu used his will to cloak himself in spacetime power and hide.
The Spacetime Spirit Realm was a good place for this here, spacetime was so chaotic it was like countless broken mirrors floating around, and Lin Moyu could easily conceal himself using spacetime power. Through the chaos, he saw Shi You's figure.
But the power flowing from Shi You was not spacetime, but pure, powerful time. He was still using time to cut through space, keeping himself stable in the chaos.
"His time power has weakened."
Compared to before, Shi You's time power was much weaker; the chaotic spacetime in the realm was constantly draining his strength.
Ahead of Shi You, a phantom appeared in midair it was the Morning Bell Emperor.
The Morning Bell Emperor had also entered the Spacetime Spirit Realm and was directly attacking Shi You's clone.
It looked like Shi You's clone had suffered a loss.
Lin Moyu saw the Morning Bell Emperor holding a beautiful, multicolored stone the Void Soul Essence Stone he needed.
The Morning Bell Emperor's gaze was icy, tinged with hatred.
A giant bronze bell appeared behind him, its toll shattering spacetime.
Shi You's clone roared, "Morning Bell, my true self won't let you get away with this!"
The Morning Bell Emperor remained silent, striking the bell again and again. The clone's roars were drowned out by the bell, and soon the clone itself collapsed like a bubble.
When the bell stopped, the Morning Bell Emperor looked toward Lin Moyu's hiding place. "Come out."
This was the Morning Bell Emperor's domain; Lin Moyu knew he couldn't hide, so he canceled his concealment.
With a wave, the Morning Bell Emperor dispersed the chaotic spacetime, opening a path for Lin Moyu.
Lin Moyu flew over, puzzled. "Emperor, did you personally attack and destroy Shi You's clone here because information can't escape this place?"
The Morning Bell Emperor replied, "Exactly. Outside, the Lord of Time would know who destroyed his clone, and could even reverse time to find out."
"But here, his clone can't send out information, and he can't reverse time inside this place."
Lin Moyu said, "But he controls the River of Time couldn't he find out from there?"
The Morning Bell Emperor replied, "The River of Time isn't all-powerful. If it were, there'd be no secrets left in the world."
"There are still many places the River of Time can't touch like this Spacetime Spirit Realm."
He tossed the Void Soul Essence Stone to Lin Moyu. "This is the Void Soul Essence Stone Shi You wanted. You can take it to him."
So easy?
Lin Moyu felt it couldn't be that simple.
The Morning Bell Emperor said, "Don't overthink it. The fact that you found the key to the realm and made it here is enough."
"This is a rule set by me and the Twilight Drum Emperor. If you act according to the rules, there's no problem."
"I did make some modifications to this Void Soul Essence Stone, but you can't tell, and neither can Shi You."
"It won't affect you. When Shi You discovers something's wrong, it'll be at least a thousand years from now."
"I'll keep my promise to you. Even if Shi You goes back on his word, I'll act."
Lin Moyu asked, "What if he finds out?"
