Chapter 4337: You Can Lie to Me, I Can Lie to You
Blazing flames roared endlessly, countless chunks of chaotic material refined into essences, merging into the Wings of Disorder upon Lin Moyu's back.
Before their fusion, those materials could be used to summon Elemental Liches. Now that the Elemental Lich had vanished, the materials merged fully into the wings, birthing countless glowing motes shimmering like stars.
Each mote could transform into a Chaos Sprite, similar in role to the Elemental Liches; they carried the same abilities, and when working together could even disorder an entire region's laws.
Thus, the newly evolved Wings of Disorder retained all the power of the Elemental Lichesyet without restrictions of number, becoming even more terrifying.
Lin Moyu went further. He resummoned his other elemental liches Space, Dao, Flame and sought corresponding chaotic materials for them, then sublimated them further, merging them likewise into the wings.
The Divine Phoenix Clan truly lived up to its vast heritage. The amount and attributes of materials given were complete beyond compare.
As the refining continued, Lin Moyu's Soul Fire drifted over the palace itself, probing its depths.
This palace was no ordinary building it was the array eye of Catastrophic Supreme's massive Middle Domain formation. Only by refining the palace could Lin Moyu control it.
Fortunately, refining the palace was not difficult. In three days, the task was done. Compared to this, merging materials into the Wings of Disorder took longer.
Ten whole days of burning chaos flame sat last the fusion finished.
The Wings of Disorder now spread behind him, dazzling constellations lit upon each feather, starlight scattering with dreamlike brilliance.
Lin Moyu could feel it another leap in strength. The wings now carried enough force to influence Chaos Lesser Completion cultivators.
He tested its flight. His speed had multiplied.
"Time to return."
"Though before that I should give them some benefits. Without it, they won't give me better things next time."
Lin Moyu never thought of himself as greedy, but neither did he accept being cheated cheaply.
Purple Gold Phoenix had lied there had been others before him in this trial, though he had said none.
It wasn't serious, true but debts had to be settled.
So Lin Moyu decided to hand them some sweetness in advance. That way, he could secure even more later.
With his thought, the palace's grand formation bloomed to his vision.
He now controlled its array eye.
That mean the now encompassed the entire Ancestral Land of the Divine Phoenix Clan.
The formation was not activated fully, only tapped for a fragment of its power. Still, the reach was vast.
Outside, the Three Phoenixes Purple Gold, Black Gold, White Gold waited nervously at the gate, gazes filled with both anticipation and tension.
A chuckle curved Lin Moyu's lips. His finger flicked, summoning forth the Ancestral Power of the Divine Phoenix line, left within the land and nurtured for endless ages.
That power, now in his control.
He divided the primordial essence into three streams. They shot from within the palace, piercing into the three Phoenixes.
Stunned, then overjoyed, the three felt their bloodlines boil with vigor.
This was an incredible gift. Even as Chaos Full Completions, unable to advance further, here was a rare chance for their strength to refine upward further still.
Lin Moyu smirked faintly and halted the output. Benefits should be given but not too much.
Then another array trigger.
From the palace soared a divine phoenix of twelve golden tails, shrieking a song across the skies before vanishing into light.
"The Ancestor! The Ancestor has descended!"
The three Phoenixes collapsed into kneeling, bowing reverently.
Exactly the effect I wanted, Lin Moyu thought.
Once they finished bowing for a time, he felt it proper to step out.
He opened the passage, walking from the palace unseen, appearing silently outside.
The three still knelt. Lin Moyu's voice cut through with an amused tone:
"Seniors, such a grand show of respect this junior is truly overwhelmed."
They froze, then stood awkwardly.
Purple Gold Phoenix spoke first, "Congratulations on your safe return, Daoist Lin."
Lin Moyu chuckled, his smile edged with scorn.
"Purple Gold senior, you lied to me."
The air stiffened.
"Daoist Lin why do you say this?"
He sneered.
"Ling Feng and Bai Xiyin… surely you won't pretend not to know them?"
Purple Gold Phoenix stiffened, embarrassment etching deep. "You… saw them?"
Lin Moyu said coldly, "I saw their corpses."
The Phoenix could only give a bitter smile.
"In truth, I did not deceive you. They weren't brought by me. You truly are the first one I sought personally."
A Chaos Full Completion being, speaking so cautiously, apologetically it was rare indeed.
But they dared not offend him. For they did not know what Lin Moyu had seen inside, whether he had spoken with their Ancestor.
Already, they had felt ancestral power bless them directly. The Ancestor's phantom light had manifested. Evidently, Lin Moyu had stood facetoface with their progenitor.
The three Phoenixes had no choice but to temper their tone, showing respect.
Lin Moyu let out a smooth chuckle.
"Say what you like I am a petty man. I don't forget debts, Purple Gold senior you understand."
Purple Gold Phoenix hurriedly replied, "Then, Daoist Lin, what compensation would you request? As long as it can be done, we will do it."
Lin Moyu had thought it through already. He said firmly:
"Simple. I want high level Chaos materials. And I want Chaos Gold."
The Phoenix did not hesitate. "Done. No problem at all. Though may we ask, what transpired in the palace?"
Lin Moyu shook his head.
"There are things I cannot say. I swore to your Ancestor. If revealed, it could mean your entire clan's extinction.
"But know this if completed, his plan will raise your whole clan into the heavens. No one will ever shake your Divine Phoenix race again."
Shock widened their eyes.
Not dead their progenitor was alive… and plotting something grand enough to raise their whole race into transcendence?
Purple Gold Phoenix's voice trembled.
"Could it be…"
He cut himself short, daring not speak further.
But Lin Moyu's eyes read their minds exactly.
They surely thought their Ancestor aimed for Supreme Dao Lord hood. That was the peak of their imagination. They could not even conceive of Dao itself, nor resisting it.
This misunderstanding was useful. Lin Moyu encouraged it.
"I gave word to your Ancestor to journey into the Four Extremes to accomplish tasks for him."
"My power alone is too slow to fly across Chaos. And the domain crossing arrays? They cost Chaos Gold. An extravagant burden."
He smiled wickedly.
Since you lied to me… I'll lie to you. A debt paid, in kind.
Lin Moyu never forgot a grudge.
