Chapter 4257: Unexpected
Lin Moyu still held four corpses of Ancient Tree Kings. The Ancient Tree King was truly a half step Chaos Realm existence with incredible vitality; the power released from the corpse explosion was also stronger.
Although the Ghost Husband's clone had increased in strength, its core had not changed.
Its state was similar to when Lin Moyu used the Gathering Power technique to enhance himself.
Boom!
Amidst the explosion, the Ghost Husband clone's roar abruptly cut off. His soul body fragmented under the bone crushing attack and could not withstand the corpse explosion's power.
But in the next second, the soul reassembled, and the Ghost Husband clone reappeared.
Lin Moyu wasn't surprised. If the clone was this easy to deal with, it would be a disappointment.
But Lin Moyu remained cautious if the clone was so tough, Fifth Generation Heavenly Void Palace Master's true body would be even harder to handle.
And if the clone proved useless, he could exile it and avoid combat altogether.
Fifth could not leave the Fifth Generation Domain, so battle was inevitable.
After being bombarded once, the Ghost Husband clone seemed to regain consciousness.
Its aura returned to its original level. It still contained the power accumulated over endless years but refrained from reckless use.
Fatty's giant form charged again, and the Ghost Husband clone shouted coldly, "Battle Demon Ghost Body!"
Suddenly, a giant apparition appeared emanating chilling aura fighting Fatty, while the Ghost Husband clone coldly watched Lin Moyu.
"Today, I acknowledge defeat, but your fate is already sealed," it said.
"I will watch to see how utterly ruined you become!"
Lin Moyu frowned, catching a peculiar tone in the Ghost Husband clone's words.
The clone clearly knew certain things but could not speak because of the chaotic rules.
Yet it was fully aware of its identity.
No sooner had it spoken than it ignited in flames, rousing the forces of origin power accumulated over years, along with vast heavenly fate and domain origin power, erupting with earth shattering fury.
The World Burning Fire was dispersed; Lin Moyu sensed danger and prepared to use corpse explosion again but suddenly found he could no longer lock onto the Ghost Husband clone.
The clone used domain origin power and heavenly fate to conceal its aura and existence, cutting all lock ons.
Intent turned, rule power of the Vast World surged from all directions, but could not approach.
Rule power from the Vast World collided with the Fifth Domain's force, rending infinite rifts and shaking the whole Vast World.
The Ghost Husband clone whispered: "I'll watch your fall, your destruction."
Before it appeared a massive rift surged with tidal chaotic qi.
The Ghost Husband clone forcibly opened a passage to the chaos through the Fifth Domain he was escaping!
Lin Moyu tried to block him but found it impossible.
Undead minions surged in a dense tide of attacks but were useless.
The clone spewed endless ghost qi, devouring all attacks.
The Ghost Husband had absorbed incomprehensible amounts of domain force over countless years; although these forces could not raise his realm directly, they granted him great power in a short time and enabled other feats.
Once attacked and having learned Lin Moyu's identity, the Ghost Husband clone no longer wished combat and chose to flee.
Before entering the spatial rift, the clone glanced back at Lin Moyu, its gaze like that of a dead man.
Lin Moyu's expression was cold yet helpless; none of his methods could stop the clone now.
He couldn't approach the clone, and the Catastrophic Scepter could not kill him in time.
Only by using the Ferry of Tribulation to give chase might he catch him but entering chaos was not yet the time.
With no solution, Lin Moyu could only watch helplessly as he fled.
Suddenly, the Ice Jade Mat blazed to life, cold qi sweeping out everywhere.
Immense cold affected friend and foe alike trillions of undead minions, Fatty, rule power, space and time all instant frozen.
Including the Ghost Husband clone and the newly opened space channel no exceptions.
The clone's eyes still darted, gnashing teeth while struggling, but its vast domain power was completely silenced.
Everyone present was frozen only Lin Moyu remained free.
Lin Moyu was stunned the sudden eruption of the Ice Jade Mat's power was beyond his imagining.
Fortunately, it's precisely the Ice Jade Mat's eruption that stopped the Ghost Husband clone's escape.
The Ice Jade Mat flew forth on its own, and atop it appeared a phantom of the green robed elder.
Seeing the green robed elder, the Ghost Husband clone showed immediate fear he knew the elder and how powerful he was.
But he had no idea it was the green robed elder who had imprisoned his true body.
The green robed elder's methods were too advanced to fathom.
He wanted to plead mercy but was frozen solid, unable to utter a sound, only able to move his eyes.
Lin Moyu said softly, "Why did you come?"
The green robed elder chuckled, "If I did not come, how could this end here?"
Lin Moyu said, "Ultimately, you let him escape there'll be time another day to kill him."
The green robed elder said, "If he escapes now, he'll be much harder to capture."
Lin Moyu said, "His true body is in your hands are you afraid you can't find his clones?
And yet you know one clone is hiding in the domain core, and you haven't touched it."
The green robed elder chuckled again, "Why haven't I touched him? Surely you can guess."
Lin Moyu wasn't slow he knew the elder left the clone for himself.
As long as Lin Moyu killed the clone, he would gain the heavenly fate and accumulating domain power the clone possessed tremendous benefits for him.
But now some accident happened, forcing the green robed elder to act.
Lin Moyu asked, "Doesn't this ruin the plan?"
The elder shook his head. "I'm acting now to salvage it. Whether you act yourself or I do, most of the domain power and heavenly fate will still belong to you."
He sighed, "In the end, you were too eager. If you were stronger able to reach half step Chaos Realm then act there would be no accident."
Lin Moyu smiled, "Nothing in the world is a perfect plan. There will always be accidents."
The elder sighed, "Yes, everything has accidents. If not for that one incident years ago, things wouldn't be like this. But it's still okay; it can be salvaged. You can act now, kill him."
Lin Moyu said, "I'm not strong enough it's not easy to kill him."
The elder said, "He can't move here. It's only a matter of how fast you kill him."
As he spoke, a hint of regret lingered he seemed to think Lin Moyu was too hasty, making things imperfect.
But Lin Moyu thought the imperfection was good.
Everything must leave a way out like the laws of heaven and earth with a thread of hope remaining.
Fullness leads to decline that's the best result.
"Now is good!"
Lin Moyu flicked his finger, igniting World Burning Fire again, while the Skeletal Hell appeared, engulfed in ice, swallowing the Ghost Husband clone.
