Chapter 3203: Then I’ll Accept Your Good Wishes

Arrived?

The hundred-day journey ended just like that?

This time it was Lin Moyu’s turn to be stunned.

He had clearly only been in the Soul Void for a short while, just flying around his soul world for a bit, then doing some experiments, and finally pondering some questions. Adding it all up, it shouldn’t have been more than two days.

But the facts were before his eyes. Through the room, Lin Moyu could see the Commercial City. They had indeed arrived at the Commercial City.

Lin Moyu realized that time in the Soul Void was not synchronized with time on the Origin Continent.

The difference between the two was at least several dozen times. One day in the Soul Void might be several dozen days on the Origin Continent.

"I didn’t expect the time flow in the Soul Void to be so different."

Suddenly, Lin Moyu had a flash of insight, his eyes lighting up, "I understand now!"

"The reason why it’s easy to get lost in the Soul Void is because of the different time flow rates. Once a soul enters the Soul Void, it experiences a different time flow rate than the soul world."

"So as time passes, the gap between them grows larger and larger. If the distance is close, it’s still okay, as corrections can be made continuously. But if the distance is far, corrections can’t be made between them."

"Distance and time both lead to the soul getting lost."

Lin Moyu felt he somewhat understood the nature of the Soul Void.

He pondered whether he could use the Dao of Time to counteract the time flow rate of the Soul Void, keeping his own time flow rate consistent with his soul world. If so, would that prevent him from getting lost?

At the very least, it could expand his range of activity.

Lin Moyu was eager to try this in the Soul Void immediately, but seeing the bustling Commercial City not far outside the ship, he suppressed this thought.

Lin Moyu went to say goodbye to Lu Wanshui, then left the Hurricane Warship and entered the Commercial City.

As soon as he entered the city, Lu Lian, the grand steward of the Commercial City, appeared before Lin Moyu.

After many days, Lu Lian was still the same as before, with a hint of coolness.

Lu Lian bowed slightly to Lin Moyu, "Welcome, friend Lin."

Lin Moyu smiled and said, "Fairy Lu is too kind. I wonder if the Three Ancestors have any new instructions for calling me this time."

Lu Lian said, "The Three Ancestors calling for you is just a small matter. The one who really wants to see you is Xiao Hou Yuan."

"Senior Xiao Hou?" Lin Moyu’s heart stirred, "Is it about the matter I entrusted to Senior Xiao Hou?"

Lu Lian didn’t answer, "Follow me."

Lin Moyu immediately followed Lu Lian to Xiao Hou Yuan’s residence. On the way, Lin Moyu asked, "Fairy Lu, where is the No. 3 Hurricane Warship now?"

Lu Lian said, "You want to go to the Western Continent, right?"

Lin Moyu smiled slightly, "Yes."

Lu Lian said, "The No. 3 Hurricane Warship is still en route. It will take about thirty more days to reach the Commercial City."

Thirty days, not too long.

The No. 3 Hurricane Warship had to cross the Realm Sea, so the journey was longer. A round trip took about three hundred days.

It was the familiar courtyard. Xiao Hou Yuan had received Lu Lian’s message early and was already waiting in the yard.

Seeing Lin Moyu, Xiao Hou Yuan laughed heartily, "Congratulations on your triumphant return, Mr. Lin."

Lin Moyu’s mouth twitched, "Senior Xiao Hou, that joke isn’t funny at all."

Xiao Hou Yuan laughed even more happily, "Even the Beast Emperor calls you a friend, and the leaders of the ten great royal clans call you Mr. Lin. It’s not inappropriate for this old man to call you Mr. Lin."

The Lufen Chamber of Commerce’s information network was incredibly efficient. The events that occurred in the Northern Continent had already been reported back.

Xiao Hou Yuan was so close to the Three Ancestors, naturally he knew everything clearly.

Lin Moyu smiled helplessly, "They can say that, but you can’t. Otherwise, you’d be shortening this junior’s lifespan."

Xiao Hou Yuan laughed, "Alright, alright, I won’t shorten your life then. Little Lin, I guess you already know why this old man called you here, right?"

Lin Moyu said, "I’ve guessed some of it. It should be about Lillian’s matter having some progress, right?"

Xiao Hou Yuan waved his hand, and a huge crystal suddenly appeared in the courtyard.

The crystal floated in mid-air, emitting a rich aura of the Great Dao. The light of the Sun Origin shone on it, reflecting rainbow-like colors.

Inside the nearly transparent crystal, Lillian lay quietly like a sleeping beauty.

"Lillian has recovered!"

Light flashed in Lin Moyu’s eyes as he activated his Undead Eye.

In his vision, a soul flame appeared. The soul flame was still very weak, weaker than an ordinary person’s.

Although weak, it was complete, without any defects.

Xiao Hou Yuan said, "I used the Soul Dao to create this crystal, nurturing her soul. Her soul will gradually grow stronger and recover, but it still needs time."

"What follows is just a matter of time. The important thing is that it’s done."

"However, whether she’ll remember what happened in the past after she wakes up, this old man can’t guarantee."

As he spoke, Xiao Hou Yuan sent the crystal to Lin Moyu.

Next, he just needed to find a place to put the crystal. Given enough time, Lillian would naturally recover.

The crystal couldn’t be put into the Rules World, nor could it be isolated from the Origin Continent. The crystal needed to absorb the power of the Great Dao to be effective.

Lin Moyu took the crystal and said to Xiao Hou Yuan, "Thank you, Senior Xiao Hou. I believe in her luck. She will surely recover completely."

As he spoke, he took out an Ice-Fire Dao Stone, "This trip to the Northern Continent, this junior did obtain some good things. This Ice-Fire Dao Stone is for you, Senior. Please don’t refuse."

Ice-Fire Dao Stone!

Xiao Hou Yuan’s breathing suddenly became heavy. He knew what an Ice-Fire Dao Stone was. It was something even the Three Ancestors wanted badly, its value immeasurable.

Unexpectedly, Lin Moyu just took it out so casually.

Xiao Hou Yuan didn’t immediately take it, "Little Lin, aren’t you being too formal?"

Lin Moyu smiled, "It’s you who’s being too formal. If you weren’t, you’d accept it. This isn’t a thank-you gift, but a gift for you, Senior."

Seeing Lin Moyu speak this way, Xiao Hou Yuan stopped being polite, "Alright then, this old man will accept it."

Lin Moyu said, "Senior, you’re going to go into seclusion next, right?"

Xiao Hou Yuan was slightly surprised, "How did you know?"

Lin Moyu said, "I guessed, of course. This junior obtained a method for breaking through to the Great Dao realm from there. The various sect ancestors will successively go into seclusion to cultivate and seek breakthrough. I thought Senior Xiao Hou would naturally go into seclusion too."

"Moreover, Senior Xiao Hou should be different from them, not taking the same path."

After his surprise, Xiao Hou Yuan couldn’t help but laugh out loud, "As expected of you, nothing can be hidden from you."

Actually, the Three Ancestors always had a breakthrough method, and it was the correct dao pattern breakthrough method.

Previously, Xiao Hou Yuan hadn’t condensed dao patterns because he couldn’t become an exception.

Otherwise, he would be telling everyone that the Three Ancestors had a breakthrough method.

And the Three Ancestors, bound by some rules, couldn’t pass down the dao pattern breakthrough method, at least not openly.

So after Lin Moyu obtained another breakthrough method, the Three Ancestors sold it, while also allowing Xiao Hou Yuan to breakthrough.

Xiao Hou Yuan would naturally use the dao pattern method to breakthrough, different from others, but others wouldn’t know.

The Three Ancestors, as shrewd merchants, did things like doing business, calculating everything very clearly, basically leaving no loopholes.

Lin Moyu raised his teacup, "Then this junior will use tea instead of wine to wish Senior Xiao Hou a smooth condensation of dao patterns and breakthrough into the Great Dao realm."

Xiao Hou Yuan also raised his teacup, "Then I’ll accept your good wishes, Mr. Lin!"
