Chapter 3017: Each Has Their Own Way of Seeking Death!
Lei Zhong Hu, just from the name one could tell he wasnât from the direct lineage of the Lightning Purple-Striped Tigers.
Direct lineage names were always two characters, never three.
This was the simplest way to distinguish between direct and branch lineages.
In the Lightning Purple-Striped Tiger clan, if a direct lineage member committed a mistake and was stripped of their direct lineage status, their name had to add one more character, becoming three characters.
Lin Moyu said, "My friend is breaking through. I hope Fellow Daoist Lei wonât come to disturb, and also please inform your clansmen who come later not to disturb me."
"I have a good relationship with your clan, and some acquaintance with your clan leader. If things go too far, it wonât look good for anyone."
Lin Moyu was somewhat forceful. Although he didnât say it explicitly, he had made himself very clear.
Donât force me to act. If I do, I wonât be polite. I will kill.
I have some acquaintance with your clan leader, but I wonât show mercy because of this relationship. Iâll kill if I have to.
Those two are examples of the outcome.
Lin Moyu believed Lei Zhong Hu could understand these words. If he couldnât understand such words, he wouldnât be qualified to be a fourth-level Dao Venerable cultivator.
The beast raceâs minds were straightforward, but that didnât mean they were stupid.
Lei Zhong Hu understood the meaning in Lin Moyuâs words. He looked somewhat embarrassed and helpless.
There was no choice. Now he was at a disadvantage. What else could he do?
The two Dao Venerables just now were the best examples, instantly killed on the spot, leaving only two broken corpses, tens of thousands of years of cultivation destroyed in an instant.
He didnât want that. He wanted to live well, to live for many more years.
Lin Moyuâs gaze turned to the distance, "Someoneâs coming. Among them are your clansmen, Fellow Daoist Lei."
Lei Zhong Hu looked in the direction Lin Moyu indicated but saw nothing.
He couldnât sense anything. How could Lin Moyu, a mere second-level Dao Venerable, sense it?
He even suspected Lin Moyu was just making it up.
But just a minute later, he sensed people coming from that direction.
There were quite a few, including familiar auras of his clansmen.
In one minute, for a fourth-level Dao Venerable, even in the fifth level, passing through countless lightning bolts, they could fly tens of thousands of miles.
Lin Moyuâs sensing range was so much farther than his own.
The range of perception, to a certain extent, also represented the strength of the soul.
Lei Zhong Hu realized that although Lin Moyu appeared to be only at second-level Dao Venerable, his soul was even stronger than his own.
Lin Moyu said softly, "Fellow Daoist Lei, arenât you going to stop them?"
Lei Zhong Hu suddenly awoke and immediately flew towards the newcomers.
He was also afraid his clansmen would rush in recklessly and end up being killed.
Even if they wanted to rush in to snatch the Soul Progenitor Beast, they should let others test the waters first, to see where Lin Moyuâs bottom line was.
Lin Moyu chuckled softly and returned to Little Fiveâs position.
This position was the ten-thousand-meter forbidden zone. Lin Moyu didnât release more Skeleton Kings; a hundred was enough.
He never fully revealed his strength. There was no need.
The strength revealed just needed to be enough to solve the current problem.
If it wasnât enough, it wasnât too late to add more force.
This was Lin Moyuâs confidence. He was confident in his own strength, not overestimating himself.
A group of people appeared in the lightning, numbering several hundred.
More than half of them were members of the Lightning Purple-Striped Tiger clan.
As the realm levels got higher, with each higher level, the number of people correspondingly decreased.
In the fourth level, one could still find thousands of Dao Venerables.
By the fifth level, it was hard to say if there were even a thousand Dao Venerables.
Besides the group coming from roughly the same direction, there were also some people coming from different directions.
They were all coming for the Soul Progenitor Beast, for the Cause and Effect Dao, whether near or far.
In Lin Moyuâs view, these people had already chosen their path to death.
Soon, those rushing over appeared in sight.
He slightly opened his palm, and ten thousand rays of colorful light burst from his palm, forming a large ball two meters in diameter.
A hundred Skeleton Kings stood outside the light ball, forming a defense.
Then Lin Moyuâs voice overpowered the divine thunder, resounding for a hundred thousand miles.
"This is a forbidden zone. Those who enter will die!"
Without any extra explanation, he used just seven words to tell everyone that this was a life-and-death forbidden zone.
As for whether others would listen, that was beyond Lin Moyuâs control.
Everyone heard Lin Moyuâs words, and everyone clearly paused for a moment.
At this time, Lei Zhong Hu had also flown in front of his clansmen and began to persuade them.
As for how he persuaded them, Lin Moyu didnât care. That was his business, not Lin Moyuâs.
If he could persuade them, that would be best. If not, Lin Moyu wouldnât show mercy.
What needed to be said had been said!
Lei Zhong Hu flew over with those Dao Venerables while trying to persuade them. From afar, Lin Moyu could see Lei Zhong Huâs anxiety.
Although he was a fourth-level Dao Venerable, not weak in terms of realm, his status wasnât good.
As a branch family member, both his authority and prestige were too weak. Not many would be willing to listen to him.
Lei Zhong Hu was very anxious. He didnât want his clansmen to go to their deaths, but he couldnât persuade them.
Lin Moyuâs voice reached their ears, making everyone pause for a moment. Then some Dao Venerables showed disdain, "A little second-level Dao Venerable brat, talking big here. Iâll eat you!"
"Get out of the way quickly, or Iâll eat you!"
"Mere human, drawing a forbidden zone in someone elseâs ancestral grounds. How ridiculous. One might think this was human ancestral grounds."
"Thatâs right. Even the Lightning Purple-Striped Tiger Dao Venerables havenât drawn any forbidden zones here. Who do you think you are!"
One Dao Venerable after another spoke thunderously, looking at Lin Moyu.
They werenât fools. While speaking, they didnât forget to pull down the Lightning Purple-Striped Tiger clan.
After all, this was their ancestral grounds. Lin Moyuâs actions indeed didnât give them face.
Drawing a forbidden zone on someone elseâs territory, if this wasnât a slap in the face, what was?
The Lightning Purple-Striped Tiger membersâ faces turned green. They all felt they had lost face and harbored hatred towards Lin Moyu.
Lei Zhong Hu finally couldnât help but roar, "Fellow Daoist Lin is a friend of the clan leader. Donât let your heads get muddled!"
"The Soul Progenitor Beast is Fellow Daoist Linâs friend, possibly also the clan leaderâs friend. Canât you calm down a bit?"
"Besides, thereâs only one Soul Progenitor Beast. With so many of you, how can you share it?"
"Even if you got the Soul Progenitor Beast, are you sure you could comprehend the Cause and Effect Dao?"
"How many people in history have obtained Soul Progenitor Beasts? Did they comprehend the Cause and Effect Dao?"
"Two people have already died here. Why wonât you listen to reason? Why do you still want to go to your deaths!"
Amidst Lei Zhong Huâs angry roars, the Lightning Purple-Striped Tiger clan members finally began to calm down a bit.
The beast raceâs flaw was that they were easily impulsive, but they werenât actually fools.
If they were fools, they couldnât have become Dao Venerables. Once they calmed down, they would realize that what Lei Zhong Hu said wasnât wrong.
With so many of them, and only one Soul Progenitor Beast, how could they share it?
If so, why should they rush to the front? If there was real danger, wouldnât it be better to let others go first?
Most of the Lightning Purple-Striped Tiger clan members stopped, but there were still a few who said disdainfully, "Youâre just a branch family member. What right do you have to lecture us here?"
"What status does the clan leader have? How could he possibly have a second-level Dao Venerable human friend? Youâre insulting the clan leader."
"Soul Progenitor Beast, even if I canât get it, I canât let outsiders have it. If I get it, Iâll give it to the clan leader!"
