Walker Of The Worlds Chapter 2135 The Great Domain Violator

Chapter 2135  The Great Domain Violator

While Lin Mu could read what the skill in the jade slip was and what its quality was, he didn't know anything about the origins of the skill. It wasn't mentioned in the jade slip and left him wondering why the others were surprised.

"What is the Eight Valleys Immortal Sect?" Lin Mu questioned.

"The Eight Valleys Immortal Sect was one of the top sects of the Eastern Immortal Court about two hundred thousand years ago." Crown Prince Feng Shun answered. "They were ma.s.sively successful and were quite widespread, having control over eighty Immortal worlds and having their branches in over a thousand Mortal worlds." He added.

"What? That's a lot." Lin Mu couldn't help but be surprised.

He knew that bigger Immortal Sects often had branches in Mortal worlds, but it was rare for them to be spread in so many worlds. Even a hundred worlds would be a big number, not to mention a thousand of them. Then there was also the fact that they had control over Eighty Immortal Worlds too.

That was an even bigger achievement than the thousand Mortal World.

After all, to have control over a mortal world, all they needed to do was establish a branch and keep on supplying them with good resources to maintain their superiority. But doing that in the Immortal realm wasn't exactly easy since other powers would also have access to such resources.

Then there would also be resistance from the powers of the Immortal realm, making it harder for them to spread their influence. As such, the only way one could spread their influence over Immortal worlds would be to take it slow and grow their ranks there or support existing powers on those worlds before taking over them, eventually. Doing anything forcefully was not a good option for them either, as it would easily bring the ire of the other powers of the Immortal realm as well as the Immortal Court itself. The Immortal court had their own allies too and if some Immortal worlds asked them for help, they would be obliged to help up to a certain extent.

"How is there one of their skills here?" Crown Princess Shang couldn't help but ask. "I thought they had been destroyed long ago." It was clear that other than Crown Prince Feng Shun and Ziran, others also seemed to know of the Eight Valleys Immortal Sect.

"I don't know." Crown Prince Feng Shun replied. "But if their skill is here, it means this place has been here since before the destruction of the Eight Valleys Immortal Sect." He added.

"What happened to them?" Lin Mu wondered. "If they had such great influence, it wouldn't have been easy for them to be destroyed." He added.

"It was a tragedy." Crown Prince Feng Shun spoke. "The Eight Valleys Immortal Sect became the target of someone that was very dreadful. He was known as the Great Domain Violator and had destroyed many sects and powers before." He explained.

"The Great Domain Violator?" Lin Mu couldn't help but find the name a bit irksome.

"He would infiltrate the powers and destroy them from within… Sowing discord and distrust among their members, which lead to great malice spreading in their ranks. This would then further turn into conflicts that could not be resolved easily.

Over time, they would only grow until a war would breakout within their branches. Elders would fight elders and disciples would kill other disciples." Crown Prince Feng Shun explained.

His voice held a certain level of dread for it all, showing that it was certainly not something that was easy to talk about. It showed just how much fear that person had sowed into the history, causing it to be pa.s.sed down to people in the future.

"The abbot once spoke about this too." Monk Hushu said, his brows furrowed in displeasure. "He said that the Great Domain Violator had tried to do the same with a few of the Buddhist powers, too. If I recall correctly, the Qingmeng Buddhist Sect and the Chrysanthemum Arhat Island perished in the actions of the Great Domain Violator too.

This caused great distress to the Buddhist Alliance and the Great Domain Violator was deemed as a sworn enemy of the entire Buddhist alliance. His future attempts at infiltrating the powers of the Buddhist Alliance were foiled, but came at a great cost.

The people he corrupted could not be redeemed and had to be killed." He explained.

Hearing Monk Hushu's words, Lin Mu now understood that the fear caused by the Great Domain Violator was something deeper than just a threat. It was the man's ability to destroy the very origins of a power.

"How did he do all that?" Lin Mu questioned. "And did he do it alone?" he asked since their worlds made it seem like it was all done solo.

"He had many methods, but the most common ones were temptations." Crown Prince Feng Shun answered this time. "The Great Domain Violator had access to unorthodox techniques and skills that, of course, offered a shortcut to breakthroughs.

It was easy to tempt those of weak hearts and allow them to fall for his ploys. But it was all a trap, as the techniques and skills he offered were nothing but curses. They would bound those that use them to him, eventually.

We don't have the details, but the powers that he offered did not come a simple cost… it came at the cost of one's soul. It would burn the essence of the soul in exchange for a stronger cultivation base.

And when they were doing this, a lot of side effects would pop up. Side effects that could only be suppressed by the Great Domain Violator. As such, even if one was a Transcendent Immortal, they would be a slave to his whims unless they wished to die in the end." He explained in detail.

Lin Mu listened to it carefully, and realized that there were still some things that did not exactly add up.

"Wait… Considering he's done this multiple times, how did others not realize it?" Lin Mu questioned. "And he was manipulating the different people within the sects, right? Would they not eventually realize they were using the same kind of techniques and skills?" he expressed his doubts.

"Most of the time they were too blinded by power, while in some cases they only realized too late." Crown Prince Feng Shun replied.

"That's not all. The Great Domain Violator was also a master of disguise. Not just in terms of appearance, but even the techniques and skills themselves. somehow he was able to change the outward aspects of the techniques, making one think they did not match.

But in reality, the core of the technique and skills would remain the same." Ziran chimed in. "It took them a long time to figure out that the Great Domain Violator was also well versed in formations, being able to freely modify techniques as he wished." He revealed.

Lin Mu obviously knew that in order to make a new cultivation technique, some level of mastery of the formations was needed since cultivation techniques often relied on the creation of Qi circuits and channels that determined how the technique would work. And the application of these would be used to create Qi skills.

But he also knew that to modify the cultivation techniques to the extent that the Great Domain Violator did was also not simple. It needed a mastery of more than formations… one would have to have studied hundreds of thousands of cultivation techniques and skills, throughly understanding them and their workings before being able to make any changes.

Only by doing all this would one be able to replicate what the Great Domain Violator did.

"The Eight Valleys Immortal Sect was a great pillar of support for the immortal court and their destruction was not easily endured by the Immortal Court. They could not stay still after learning the truth of what had happened and thus they mounted an offense against the Great Domain Violator." Monk Hushu continued from earlier. "They eventually managed to deal a major blow to the Great Domain Violator, erasing his grasp over the powers." He added.

"But they didn't manage to kill him?" Lin Mu understood from his words.

"As much as they wished to do that, it was a distant dream. They did think that they had killed him, but the Great Domain Violator was more stubborn than they realized. Even with the near fatal injury he had suffered, he managed to get out of it." Monk Hushu answered. "But it still cost him." Ziran said with slight hesitation. "We don't know what he did, but whatever he did changed his entire being. It cost him his humanity." "Humanity? He wasn't human anymore?" Lin Mu asked in a surprised tone.

"Indeed… He turned into an entirely new being… an abomination only known as the Shadow Gloom Bone Lord." Monk Hushu stated, making Lin Mu's eyes go wide.
