Chapter 4247: Evolving the Domain
A vast domain world greater even than the Fifth Generation Domain, in Lin Moyu's view shattered with a single word from Heavenly Void Son.
Countless worlds and living beings were reduced to ash in an instant.
Chaos was blasted open, a huge hole torn into it. An ocean of chaotic qi was first blown apart, then swirled back in, pouring into the domain.
Immediately afterward, a new world began to unfold. This world wasn't large, but it was suffused with chaotic qi, giving it a primordial, ancient feel.
"With the blood of living beings, the world's origin, and my own soul, I forge the Heavenly Void!"
Accompanied by this deep, chant like intonation, Heavenly Void Son shattered himself, offering his body to this nascent world in the process of evolution.
Lin Moyu watched as if witnessing it firsthand utterly shaken within.
Heavenly Void Son willingly destroyed his own domain, sacrificed himself, only to forge the Heavenly Void Land.
What, truly, was the point of the Heavenly Void, that it was worth such an enormous price?
It was clear to Lin Moyu: the domain that Heavenly Void Son destroyed was his own.
If he was not a Heavenly Supreme (天地大尊), then at least he had reached Perfection (圆满) in the Chaos Realm.
There were four stages of Chaos Realm:
Initial Chaos: when body and soul are chaotified only on the surface
Minor Accomplishment Chaos: body and soul fully chaotified, and one can start to manipulate chaotic qi with their own Dao
Major Accomplishment Chaos: one's Dao merges with chaos; whenever they wield their Dao, torrents of chaos respond, and their power soars dramatically
Perfection: the final stage, requiring not only strength but also possession of one's own domain
Only by refining chaos qi with the power of a domain, then merging refined chaos back into oneself, could one fuse their Dao with chaos itself.
At that level, one didn't merely borrow from chaos, but began to truly control it.
Only with Perfection could someone take the next step becoming a Heavenly Supreme.
In Lin Moyu's eyes, Heavenly Void Son was Perfection a top tier powerhouse, only a half step below the Supremes.
If he'd gone further, he could have become a Supreme. Instead, he destroyed his own domain, sacrificing every world and living being inside, and merged his soul to create the Heavenly Void Land.
Why? What could possibly justify this?
Lin Moyu pressed himself for an answer no matter how he turned it over in his mind, he couldn't fathom it.
Not even becoming a Supreme seemed worth such an exorbitant cost. The risk giving up everything was too great.
The vision shifted. Lin Moyu now witnessed the aftermath the Heavenly Void Land freshly formed, not even the Heavenly Void Palace existing yet.
All around was endless chaos qi it pervaded everything, making it impossible for normal life to exist, save perhaps for chaos born beings.
Now, Heavenly Void Son appeared in this place his soul fused with the Heavenly Void Land, allowing him to freely shape and evolve everything within.
"With my decree: Scatter!"
With a word of power, the chaotic qi exploded outward, clearing a space of sky and earth.
With another gesture he proclaimed, "Heavenly Void Palace, arise!"
A booming shook the land, the Heavenly Void Land quaking as a great palace rose from the ground the First Generation Heavenly Void Palace.
The palace inhaled and exhaled chaos qi. Out of the chaos strode a giant: the physical form of Heavenly Void Son.
Though not at Perfection in flesh, even his physical body was enough to shake heaven and earth.
With every step, he parted the infinite chaos; the chaos qi yielded to his correct (upright) Dao.
His physical body entered the First Generation Palace, and Lin Moyu's vision followed him inside.
The palace was empty, boundless chaos filling every inch.
The Heavenly Void Land, in its formation, had drawn in an unimaginable amount of chaos qi.
Heavenly Void Son's body raised a hand, and from his fingertips countless divine runes flew, merging into the chaos. As the palace devoured the chaos, these runes spread through the entire Heavenly Void Land.
The once chaotic land gradually developed order the creator and lawgiver was Heavenly Void Son.
Once order stabilized, he gathered and compressed even more chaos qi countless torrents drawn together, molded by his control into ten seeds.
Each seed throbbed with unfathomable power; Lin Moyu sensed that, unleashed in the Fifth Generation Domain, a single seed could obliterate the entire region.
Boom!
With a thunderous explosion, the seed detonated, rocking not only the palace but the entire Heavenly Void Land.
Lin Moyu watched in awe a domain world was being created out of destruction.
Heavenly Void Son threw the seed beyond the Heavenly Void Land, continuing to shape its evolution with his own strength.
The domain developed rapidly many worlds formed, teeming with aquatic life.
During this process, Lin Moyu felt a miraculous force at work: a power filled with thriving vitality, a force he had never encountered before.
He was thunderstruck, yet he held his questions the drama was not yet finished.
The new domain filled with life, as creatures survived the primordial wilds, some gaining greater and greater wisdom and starting to cultivate.
There were even some natural prodigies able to absorb and expel Dao energy, born innately strong.
Yet chaotic qi permeated everything, the Great Daos hidden away; for those seeking cultivation, the path was unbearably hard.
But whoever succeeded at cultivation in such a place would be terrifyingly powerful.
Ages whisked by Lin Moyu watched legendary beings erupt from the world, some even breaking free of the domain and achieving transcendence, entering chaos.
His eyes narrowed he saw two figures, hiding in the chaos yet visible: one wore green robes, the other white.
All those who transcended from the world were taken away by these two none left behind.
"What are they doing!?"
Lin Moyu was sure he wasn't mistaken: the green robed old man and white robed old man took all the transcenders from the First Generation Domain with them; there had to be a reason.
As the transcenders multiplied, the domain weakened.
Lin Moyu realized: a domain's power is finite each time someone transcends, that power is diminished.
If too many transcend, the domain's power drains away, and future transcendence becomes more difficult, even impossible.
After a very long time, a sigh sounded: "It is not this generation."
The voice was Heavenly Void Son's. With his words, the first domain began to crumble, wither, and was finally distilled into a single seed.
Perhaps because of all it had endured, the seed was no longer what it once was.
Suddenly, the vision snapped back to the First Generation Palace. Lin Moyu saw that Heavenly Void Son's flesh was weak, drastically reduced from his former strength he'd spent nearly everything in the act of giving birth to a domain.
With a flick of his finger, the domain seed flew forth, and he spoke softly: "The next generation, then."
As he spoke, his body turned into a statue, a wisp of soul flying off with the domain seed, heading into the distance.
Lin Moyu's vision pursued the seed, which landed in an unknown place. With a thunderclap, the Second Generation Heavenly Void Palace appeared.
