110: The death of a ruthless person

At this moment, in everyone's eyes, Lin Mu's body exuded a rich Daoist aura.

Streams of pale yellow Power of the Heavenly Dao surged madly into Lin Mu's body.

And these Powers of the Heavenly Dao entering Lin Mu's body were frantically nourishing it.

This state continued for nearly half an hour.

During this period, both sides quietly watched Lin Mu, neither able to determine who was truly inside Lin Mu's body at that moment.

As the celestial phenomenon ended, Lin Mu slowly opened his eyes.

At this moment, his eyes seemed to contain the sun and moon, and a casual wave of his hands could stir the universe.

Wu Daoren's eyes flashed with brilliance upon seeing this.

Lin Mu's current state clearly showed he had taken control of the entire world.

He said with joy in his eyes, "Congratulations, fellow Daoist, on achieving your wish, haha!"

Upon hearing this, Lin Mu's eyes shot out a terrifying gaze towards Wu Daoren.

This look sent a chill down Wu Daoren's spine, making him realize that the person before him might no longer be the Heavenly Dao.

He immediately became fully alert, and with a slightly nervous tone, he asked, "Are you Lin Mu?"

Lin Mu's tone was icy as he said, "If I'm not Lin Mu, then who else could I be?"

Wu Daoren's eyes filled with disbelief upon receiving a confirmed answer.

He knew the Heavenly Dao's capabilities.

Back then, even with his peak True God strength, he could only fight the Heavenly Dao to a mutual defeat.

Even if the Heavenly Dao's true body was destroyed, it still possessed the strength of a Heavenly God.

Such strength, even in the God Realm, would be a pillar of various major forces.

Now, it had actually lost to a criminal from the Place of Exile.

Thinking of this, he looked at Lin Mu with some suspicion.

Then he said gloomily, "Don't try to bluster here; I see that you've only temporarily taken control of the body."

Lin Mu sneered upon hearing this.

At this point, he no longer had any need to contend with Wu Daoren.

He extended a finger and pointed it at Wu Daoren.

He softly uttered, "Die!"

Upon seeing this, Wu Daoren felt his soul scatter.

He unhesitatingly conjured a dark green gourd and shouted at Lin Mu, "Collect!"

This dark green gourd was personally bestowed upon him by the person behind him when he came to this world.

It was a genuine mid-tier divine artifact.

Once activated, it could contain the sun and moon, and any spell attack could be swallowed by it.

It had a similar effect to the Black Bear Demon Emperor's qiankun bag (cosmic bag).

Back when he fought the Heavenly Dao, he hadn't even had time to take out this treasure.

The Heavenly Dao had self-destructed its divine body, taking him down with it.

Which led to his current predicament.

Wu Daoren was extremely confident in this gourd.

After uttering the word "Collect," he quietly waited for Lin Mu to be drawn into the gourd.

However, the scene he imagined did not occur.

Lin Mu remained standing still.

And Lin Mu's attack directly struck the gourd.

That dark green gourd was indeed extraordinary.

It withstood Lin Mu's attack without being destroyed.

Only the immense force shook it away, causing it to lose control from Wu Daoren.

Lin Mu reached out and grabbed it, and the dark green gourd instantly flew into his hand.

Lin Mu held the gourd and examined it.

Wu Daoren, still shaken, saw the gourd in Lin Mu's hand.

He immediately said with burning anger, "Boy, give me back my treasure; that's not something you can covet."

Lin Mu smiled indifferently, casually flipped his hand, and put away the gourd.

Then he said, "Things that come into my hands are never returned."

"Besides, what you need to consider now is how to save your own life."

Wu Daoren was stunned upon hearing this, then glared at Lin Mu with unwillingness in his eyes.

Then, with a flicker of his body, he vanished in an instant.

Lin Mu did not pursue him upon seeing this.

He still extended a finger and pointed it at the void.

He softly said, "Freeze!"

At this moment, Wu Daoren, who had already hidden himself in the clouds, suddenly stiffened and froze in place.

As Lin Mu spoke again,

"Return."

Wu Daoren's body, uncontrollably, flew back to Lin Mu's side.

Wu Daoren recovered from his astonishment and saw Lin Mu looking at him with an indifferent expression.

At this moment, Wu Daoren was truly a little panicked.

He blustered, "If you know what's good for you, let me go. The important figure behind me is not someone you can afford to offend."

Lin Mu feigned interest and asked, "Oh? What kind of important figure is behind you? Tell me."

Wu Daoren thought Lin Mu was truly scared, and he hastily said,

"I was ordered by the Western God Emperor to come here for inspection. If I were to die here, all living beings in the Place of Exile would have to be buried with me."

After Wu Daoren finished speaking, he scanned everyone present with an unfriendly gaze.

Upon hearing Wu Daoren's words, everyone looked at Lin Mu with concern.

Although they didn't know who the Western God Emperor was, anyone who could be called an Emperor in the God Realm must be an important figure there.

If Lin Mu truly killed this person, the consequences would be unimaginable.

However, given their strength, they didn't dare to say much, only nervously watching how Lin Mu would respond.

Upon hearing this, Lin Mu's face did not show any fear.

He calmly asked, "Is the Western God Emperor you mentioned named Jialan?"

Wu Daoren was startled upon hearing this, then he roared furiously, "Presumptuous! How dare you call Lord God Emperor by his name!"

Lin Mu laughed heartily and said, "If it really is him, then you should die even more."

Wu Daoren was momentarily stunned, then asked inexplicably, "What do you mean by that?"

Lin Mu said, "It's a wonder you've been colluding with the Heavenly Dao for thousands of years and don't even know his origins."

"This Young Master will be benevolent and let you die with understanding."

"The Heavenly Dao also came from the God Realm, and he was forced here by the Western God Emperor you speak of."

Wu Daoren exclaimed, "What? He also came from the God Realm?"

He had always thought that the Heavenly Dao was a being born from this Nine Nether Continent.

He never expected that the Heavenly Dao also came from the God Realm.

Wu Daoren couldn't help but think, "This Heavenly Dao truly hid himself deeply."

At this point, Lin Mu continued, "Before the Heavenly Dao died, he made a deal with me."

Wu Daoren asked, "What deal?"

Lin Mu said, "Before he died, he said that if I ever went to the God Realm, I should kill Jialan for him."

Wu Daoren was startled at first, then burst into uncontrollable laughter.

"Haha! How ridiculous! You want to be a God Emperor?"

It seemed as if Lin Mu's words were some kind of joke from the Heavenly Dao.

Wu Daoren laughed until he bent over.

He only stopped laughing when tears were about to stream from his eyes.

He looked at Lin Mu with pity and said, "Ignorance is bliss. Do you truly believe that by controlling this world, you have the right to challenge a God Emperor?"

"Let me tell you the truth, under Lord God Emperor's rule, there are tens of thousands of such small worlds."

"In his eyes, we are all just ants."

"And you are just a slightly larger ant."

Lin Mu sneered mockingly, "It's your business to compare yourself to an ant."

"But one day, I will become the master of all realms."

"However, you won't have the chance to see that day."

As soon as Lin Mu finished speaking, he pointed a finger at Wu Daoren's glabella.

Wu Daoren's face showed terror, and his body vanished into thin air in an instant.
