Chapter 4527: The Ultimate Temptation
Lin Moyu flew over and entered the mist, seeing the palace inside.
He showed astonishment in his eyes, "Why does this palace look so familiar, as if I've seen it somewhere before?"
Chaos Spirit said, "That's because its appearance changes; it looks like whatever kind of palace you've seen. To me, it's an enormous pearl."
Little Tree said, "Everyone sees it differently. To me, it's a locked garden full of Chaos God Kings."
So it changes shape for each person the palace looks different depending on who's looking.
To Lin Moyu, it was a palace, but he'd seen many places and landscapes, so why did it appear as a palace now?
Its shape felt familiar and casual, as if seen before but also not.
He searched his memory but couldn't remember where.
In front of the palace was a large door; when his attention focused on it, the door grew huge, filling his entire vision.
At this moment, the palace itself ceased to matter the only thing that mattered was the door.
"Open it! You must open it!"
"Inside is everything you want; as long as you open it, you'll get anything you desire."
Countless thoughts rose in his mind, all converging into this one: open the door at any cost, no matter the effort even if it meant death.
His soul didn't warn him, but Lin Moyu realized something was wrong.
He shuddered himself awake the urge to open the door was so natural, which made it feel unnatural.
He shouldn't desire with such abandon; how could it be worth staking his life on opening the door? Yet he had really thought that way.
He recalled Little Tree's words: anybody who comes here is driven to open the door at all costs.
This must be the reason the door itself has a special power, it alters thoughts, making opening it the paramount need, above life.
This influence is far stronger than the Quiet Spirit Pearl not a subtle nudge, but almost direct mind control.
Suddenly, Chaos Spirit automatically flew toward the door, slamming into it with a heavy thud, bouncing off but immediately trying again.
Lin Moyu grabbed him, "What are you doing?"
Chaos Spirit struggled. "Let me go, I must break it open!"
"You won't break it open," Lin Moyu replied.
Chaos Spirit shouted, "I don't believe it! Let me try!"
Lin Moyu had no choice but to capture Chaos Spirit in his soul world and restrict his freedom.
Chaos Spirit wailed in protest, but Lin Moyu barricaded him with a cage of soul power without Lin Moyu's permission, he could not leave.
A drop of purified water flew out, turning into a waterfall that doused Chaos Spirit, calming him down.
Thunderous crashes sounded hundreds in an instant.
Countless tree roots crazily pounded the door as if trying to smash it to bits.
As soon as Chaos Spirit finished his frenzy, Little Tree followed, leaving Lin Moyu clutching his head, helpless.
Before he could subdue Little Tree, Ye Yangyan and Space Time Soul Serpent also charged at the door regardless of what they saw, they all attempted to force the door open, using the utmost of their strength.
They were easier to handle he recalled them to his soul world, and poured purifying water on Little Tree, finally quieting him down.
Little Tree, shaken, murmured, "Too terrifying so those old beings were like this?"
Chaos Spirit recovered, "That must be it. I had only heard they went mad, but never thought it would be like this."
Lin Moyu asked, "What did you feel just now?"
Little Tree thought and shook his head, "Can't really remember just that I had a thought: I absolutely had to open that door, what was behind it was more important than life."
Chaos Spirit said, "I saw an independent world behind the door. If I could refine it, I might be able to create a second chaos."
"No, a third chaos even Lin Moyu's storage space counted as a second."
It seemed everyone perceived what they most deeply desired.
This door was truly extraordinary capable of swaying even revivers.
"I wonder if undead servants would be affected."
Lin Moyu sent out an undead servant, letting it face the heavenly gate.
After some time, the undead showed no reaction.
He confirmed that undead were immune; only intelligent beings with self derived thought fell under its influence.
No wonder the blue robed man sat with his back to the door avoiding its gaze.
Little Tree said, "Master, try using the ice crystal it might open the door."
Lin Moyu nodded, "Okay."
He took out the ice crystal; at once, the gate shone, light falling onto the crystal, which flew automatically toward the gate.
"It worked!"
Lin Moyu rejoiced. Though he was struggling against the urge, he still greatly wished to open the door; the crystal's effect made him happy.
The ice crystal reached the gate and merged with it.
With a soft sound, the gate opened a small crack enough for only Lin Moyu.
A peculiar aura burst from beyond the door, and Lin Moyu's suppressed desire surged again its attraction skyrocketed.
He felt compelled to rush in, but fiercely restrained himself, remaining motionless in the void.
He also broke the soul world's connection to the outside so Little Tree and Chaos Spirit couldn't witness any changes, keeping them stable.
The door only opened a slit just wide enough for Lin Moyu alone.
He approached, peering through, but could see nothing inside; instead of entering, he sent an undead servant ahead.
As soon as it entered, he lost contact no death, just lost connection.
This had only ever happened at low cultivation levels; since becoming chaotic, he had always maintained strong links with his undead, no matter the distance.
For contact to break now meant the realm behind the door was truly extraordinary.
"Could it really be another chaos?"
Lin Moyu reached for the door; his soul gave no warning, so he finally stepped through.
He had come this far and opened the door; there was no turning back.
After he entered, the door closed.
A day later, a blue figure appeared before the door.
The North Pole Supreme, dressed in blue, looked grim and dark, "Someone got in."
"How did they get in? Who was it?"
"Time Reversal!"
He reversed time, but Little Tree had already wiped all spatial traces, so nothing could be discerned.
The North Pole Supreme's expression grew even more sour.
