Chapter 4667: Wanting to Live Well Is Not Easy
The Fate Sovereign saw the future. Although the future kept changing, he noticed that the general trajectory of the Ancient Chaos Wasteland didn’t change. So he was clear about what the Calamity Sovereign wanted to do, and also clear that the Calamity Sovereign wouldn’t let him go.
At that mont, he was already thinking about how to escape. The thod was to undergo "dissolution" and feign death, thereby deceiving the Calamity Sovereign.
Many things the Calamity Sovereign did stemd from the Fate Sovereign’s words and arrangents. Lin Moyu’s doubts were basically dispelled indeed, the mysterious master was an avatar of the Calamity Sovereign. The fire seed of the World Scorching Fire was sothing the Fate Sovereign had foreseen, which the Calamity Sovereign then sought out. After finding he couldn’t control it, he decided to hand it over.
Additionally, to form a deeper karmic bond or have Lin Moyu rember the favor or maybe to make Lin Moyu believe he was a disciple of the mysterious master whatever the reason, it was ant to make Lin Moyu owe the Calamity Sovereign a karmic debt.
The thod was: the Fate Sovereign gave the image of himself controlling skeleton undead from the future to the Calamity Sovereign’s avatar. As the mysterious master, he let Lin Moyu see and experience these things through special ans.
Indeed, Lin Moyu once believed he was the mysterious master’s successor. At the ti, upon learning of the Calamity Sovereign’s sches, he even admired their depth, and even felt a bit of respect. Only later did he realize that the Calamity Sovereign saw everyone as nothing but pawns.
The Fate Sovereign understood all this long ahead of ti, so he chose to avoid confrontation, and succeeded evading the Calamity Sovereign and surviving to the present.
Lin Moyu asked, "So, Dao Friend Fate, in your divinations, what was the ultimate future you saw?"
The Fate Sovereign shook his head, "I couldn’t see. It was nothing but fog. Divining the future has its limits, and that limit is the great calamity. When the calamity truly arrives, destiny turns to chaos I couldn’t predict anything beyond that."
He had long foreseen the calamity’s approach and prepared for it finding Azure Dragon Heaven, letting his body absorb the primordial Qi of Azure Dragon, and growing even stronger.
Lin Moyu took another sip of tea and continued, "Dao Friend Fate, there are still so things I wish to ask about."
The Fate Sovereign replied, "No need to stand on ceremony. Ask away."
Lin Moyu asked, "Calamity Sovereign took away the small world where I was born where did he go?"
The Fate Sovereign replied, "After taking that world, he didn’t harm its people. In the future I saw, that small world would birth many powerhouses and bring him great benefits."
"As for the specifics, I couldn’t divine them. There are very few things beyond my calculations do you understand?"
Lin Moyu was startled. "Another world?"
The Fate Sovereign nodded, and although he didn’t answer directly, that was confirmation.
His voice remained calm. "For so reason, in my divinations, it seed our Ancient Chaos Wasteland was linked by many spatial passages to different realms. These passages sotis appeared, sotis vanished. At the ti, I only found one, and if my calculations were right, Dao Friend Zixing should have found one too."
A single world connecting to many others strange indeed. But ti proved the Fate Sovereign truthful: he spotted those passages during his divinations, but could only find one afterward.
Lin Moyu privately asked the Chaos Gem, "Why is this happening?"
The Chaos Gem replied, "It’s probably because all the other worlds collapsed. Only the Ancient Chaos Wasteland, and your own Spirit God Heaven, are intact now.
"This last living world draws in the remains of nearby collapsed worlds. Once in contact, spatial corridors form between them.
"These passages are usually hidden, but now that the calamity has begun, they occasionally beco visible like sand revealed with the receding tide."
It was a simple taphor, but likely the truth. The passages the Fate Sovereign once witnessed vanished because they were "subrged by the sea" the sea being the laws of the world. Only with the disorder of a great calamity could these hidden passages erge, though their ends were full of dangers and opportunity alike.
After the calamity truly began, the Fate Sovereign could no longer see what would co his foresight ended.
Lin Moyu said, "Thank you, Dao Friend Fate, for resolving my doubts. I will not forget this favor."
The Fate Sovereign smiled, "No need for thanks. Everyone has selfish motives. I just wanted to survive."
To survive a very simple wish.
But in the midst of the calamity, it was the hardest thing to do.
During their conversation, the Chaotic Wasteland fusion was finally complete. A golden lion, not huge but glowing like the sun, appeared and then slowly drew in its light, which beca complex markings all over its body. The Ancient Desolation Bull’s aura soared beyond that of ordinary Sovereigns, almost reaching a higher level.
But Lin Moyu knew: compared to apex figures like the Calamity Sovereign, he was still a step behind.
The Fate Sovereign was satisfied with the Ancient Desolation Bull’s state. "Not bad. He may not match them, but with his defenses, he’ll be able to protect himself."
Lin Moyu looked at the Ancient Desolation Bull and said, "Congratulations on your successful return."
The Ancient Desolation Bull mooed, then changed into a middle aged man and sat at the table, stuffing a handful of grass into his mouth. "Thanks to you this ti. If you ever need anything, just ask Old Bull will help you out!"
The Fate Sovereign laughed, "Then help Dao Friend Lin kill the Shrouding Beast."
The Ancient Desolation Bull exclaid, "Don’t ntion that beast! It infuriates . If it hadn’t been for him, I’d never have needed to dissolve myself back then."
The Fate Sovereign laughed even louder, "You only lost because you were weaker. If he won the flower, that’s his skill no sha in it. Besides, there are different paths. Didn’t the Chaotic Wild Dragon carve out her own?"
Still disgruntled, the Ancient Desolation Bull said, "Everyone has their own path. Why kill others just because you made it further? If it were , I wouldn’t do such a thing."
Lin Moyu was surprised such a gentle perspective was rare, especially in the past, and even more so during the calamity, as it could easily bring disaster.
The Fate Sovereign seed to understand and didn’t say more. "Enough idle talk. Even though you can now protect yourself, in this calamity, one careless mont could still an death. Let’s just keep our heads down and focus on staying alive."
Old Bull snorted. "Let them fight and kill. We’ll just stay alive if we can."
To live is good but wanting to live well is not easy.
