Chapter 1207
To kill Lin Moyu, the Demon Race dispatched as many as seven God Venerates.
Zhu Qiwu hid in the shadows, finding the situation increasingly interesting the more he watched.
Divine light flickered in his eyes as he speculated on what Lin Moyu was doing inside.
…
Undead Law permeated outward in layers, enveloping Lin Moyu.
Compared to a year ago, the Undead Law had become much thicker and more profound.
Lin Moyu sat at the center of the Undead Law with his eyes slightly closed, a grey-and-white full moon slowly rotating behind him.
The thick Law shrouded it, making it look like a real star.
A moment later, Lin Moyu slowly opened his eyes and exhaled a grey-and-white breath.
Chapter 1330: God King Rank 8 Monster: Earth Giant
The grey-and-white breath was like a silken ribbon, flying for thousands of kilometers without dissipating.
Wherever the breath passed, the desert on one side instantly rotted, the yellow sand turning pitch black and dissolving silently.
On the other side, clumps of green plants actually appeared upon the yellow sand, turning the desert into an oasis.
The Power of Life and Death was fully displayed in this single breath.
The anomaly behind him vanished, and the Strange Star dissipated along with it.
The layered Law also rolled back like a surging tide, all returning into Lin Moyu's body.
Lin Moyu didn't know how much time had passed; he had lost all sense of time within the Yellow Earth Desert.
His cultivation was still at the True God 7th Rank, without any progress.
His soul hadn't strengthened, and his realm hadn't risen; he had merely consolidated his foundation, firmly mastering all the Law he was supposed to have grasped.
Now, if he gained a bit more soul power, he could step into the True God Rank 8 or even True God Rank 9 without any reservations.
With every rank gained, his combat power would increase significantly.
As for the demons in the deep region, Lin Moyu had already placed them on his must-kill list.
Unless they fled now, they were certain to die.
Restraining all Law aura, he looked into the distance.
Nearby, a pile of crystal cores reflected the light from the fireballs in the sky, looking quite dazzling.
His soul power swept over them, and he quickly obtained an accurate count.
3,565 God King Rank 7 crystal cores and 52 God King Rank 8 crystal cores.
Including the previous cores, he now had a total of 5,216 Rank 7 cores and 132 Rank 8 cores.
If all were converted into Rank 7 cores, the total would be 6,536.
He was still 3,467 Rank 7 cores short of the 10,000 needed to summon the Boss monster.
The Rank 8 cores shouldn't have been so few; those responsible for hunting Rank 8 monsters were the Stone Demon Revenants, all of which were God King Rank 8 Stone Demons.
They were very efficient at first, but later, as they kept getting injured, their efficiency gradually declined.
After 100 days, the Revenant duration expired, and all the Revenants collapsed simultaneously, so no more Rank 8 cores were harvested.
The Undead Legion, however, was tireless and had been hunting God King Rank 7 monsters the whole time.
But they faced a similar problem: after 100 days, the Stone Demon Revenants acting as meat shields collapsed.
Their efficiency also inevitably dropped.
Of the 3,000-plus Rank 7 cores, half were hunted before the Stone Demon Revenants collapsed.
At that time, Lin Moyu was in a state of Law comprehension and had no time to manage them.
After learning this, Lin Moyu calculated from the hunting efficiency that his Law comprehension this time must have lasted over 300 days.
Time spent in cultivation passed too quickly; he had only been consolidating his foundation, not even trying to raise his realm.
If he were to raise his realm and comprehend new Laws, years would likely pass in the blink of an eye.
Lin Moyu had experience with secluded cultivation, so he knew he couldn't choose to raise his realm here.
Even if he were to go into seclusion, it would be back in the Human World, in the House of Time.
"Still short 350 Rank 8 crystals, which means 350 God King Rank 8 monsters."
"It seems I'll have to take action personally."
350 Rank 8 crystals are equivalent to 3,500 Rank 7 crystals.
At the Undead Legion's current efficiency, it would take another 500 to 600 days.
Lin Moyu didn't want to wait any longer; he decided to act himself.
Relying on his two Origin Techniques, he knew that if he just boosted his power to the God King Rank 8 level, hunting monsters of the same rank shouldn't be difficult.
While hunting monsters for crystals, he might also absorb enough soul power.
He was only a hair's breadth away from the True God Rank 8; with just a bit more soul power, he could successfully promote his power to God King Rank 8.
With increased combat power, a stronger soul, and better endurance, his confidence in clearing the deep region would be even greater.
Recalling the Undead Legion, Lin Moyu walked toward the direction of Fireball No. 8.
He was currently in the area covered by Fireball No. 6, which bordered both Fireballs No. 8 and No. 9.
Lin Moyu wasn't picky and just chose one at random.
Regardless of the choice, the destination was the same.
Leaving the outpost, he walked at a steady pace for half a day before finally sensing a different aura.
The previous area was dominated by sand-and-stone-type Laws, with the aura of Earth Law being relatively weak.
But now, Earth-type Laws began to stand out, while sand-and-stone types became relatively weaker.
Lin Moyu knew he had entered the area of God King Rank 8 monsters.
Unlike before, there was only one type of God King Rank 8 monster.
The monster was called the Earth Giant, with a uniform height of fifteen meters.
Usually, they remained as motionless as sculptures, but once someone entered their territory, they would instantly revive and attack the intruder.
The Earth Giants were clad in Earth Law, which formed armor with astonishing defensive power—much stronger than the Yellow Sand Demon Eye and not inferior to Stone Demons of the same rank.
At the same time, their attack power was also incredible; their bodies were composed of yellow sand, which was compressed to the extreme by Earth Law, reaching an appalling weight.
Just like the sand rain used by the Yellow Sand Demon Eye, each grain of sand weighed a million catties.
It was these million-catty grains of sand that were further compressed to form the Earth Giant; one could imagine how heavy they were.
Every Earth Giant weighed as much as a star.
A single punch could shatter a star.
Standing on the Yellow Earth Desert, they used Earth Law as their foundation, moving freely through the desert and becoming extremely terrifying monsters.
Lin Moyu thought about the information regarding Earth Giants; there was only one way to kill them, and that was to sever their heads.
Other than that, severing limbs or piercing the heart was useless.
They had no hearts at all; only decapitation could kill them.
Soon, a massive statue appeared before him.
A golden giant stood in the yellow sand, its hands raised as if holding up the heavens.
The Earth Giant's alert range exceeded ten thousand meters; as long as one approached within that distance, it would awaken.
Before they awakened, all attacks were ineffective against them.
In other words, trying to hit them with long-range attacks from beyond ten thousand meters would be useless.
Lin Moyu knew this was a rule of the Yellow Earth Desert, and he had to follow it, just as one had to follow Dungeon rules in a Small World.
Before, Lin Moyu might have chosen to take a detour.
But now…
A faint light shimmered on Lin Moyu's body, and his aura rapidly surged.
Origin Technique: Gather Power!
His aura climbed steadily, breaking through to the God King Realm almost instantly and then continuing to soar.
In less than two seconds, his aura stabilized at the limit of God King Rank 8.
Just a tiny bit more, and he would reach God King Rank 9.
The light of the [Gather Power] technique had just faded when the light of the [Strong Soldier] technique flared up.
With the enhancement of the [Strong Soldier] technique, all attack damage was boosted tenfold, and he could absorb the opponent's soul.
Lin Moyu's combat power truly reached the limit of God King Rank 8.
Under the enhancement of two Origin Techniques, Lin Moyu's soul wouldn't last long; he needed to keep killing enemies to replenish it.
Battle intent rose in Lin Moyu's eyes; with a low shout, he charged forward.
The moment he stepped into the ten-thousand-meter range, the Earth Giant abruptly awakened.
Dazzling golden light erupted from its body as Earth Law surged wildly. At the same time, an invisible, massive force descended, enveloping Lin Moyu.
Chapter 1331: Slaying the Earth Giant, Law Suppression
Lin Moyu's body sank as he charged; the immense gravity forced his momentum downward, nearly causing him to plunge headfirst into the sand.
Lin Moyu reacted extremely quickly, instantly adjusting his center of gravity and regaining his original momentum.
His speed didn't slow down; instead, it became even faster.
He turned into a streak of light, reaching the Earth Giant in the blink of an eye at the maximum speed allowed by the Yellow Earth Desert.
Holding the sharp Bone Sword obtained from the Skeleton King, he delivered a simple, unadorned strike.
The sword light sliced through the yellow sand and struck the Earth Giant, producing a piercing grinding sound.
The incredibly sharp Bone Sword carved a large gash into the Earth Giant, revealing the bright orange sand inside.
The Earth Giant had no bones or blood; sand was its flesh and bone.
The Earth Giant's body was made of million-catty sand grains; its total weight was unfathomable, comparable to a star.
Such weight and density pushed the Earth Giant's defense to the limit.
Lin Moyu felt that it was even stronger than a Stone Demon of the same rank.
Lin Moyu moved rapidly, delivering hundreds of strikes in an instant.
The grating sound was incredibly unpleasant, echoing through the air along with the whistling wind.
The Earth Giant was covered in wounds, but as the yellow sand flowed, the injuries quickly healed.
The next moment, the Earth Giant fully revived. Its twenty-meter-tall body twisted as it slapped down with a massive palm, as if swatting a mosquito.
Despite its massive size, the Earth Giant was surprisingly fast, unlike the Stone Demon.
As the palm swung down, immense power surged from all directions onto Lin Moyu, as if countless giant hands were gripping him firmly, preventing his escape.
This was the power of Earth Law, using Law to trap the opponent and ensure the attack wouldn't miss.
Lin Moyu didn't dodge; he struck out with his sword against the giant palm.
Bang!
Sword and palm met, kicking up a massive wave of sand.
A large hole was blasted through the palm; Lin Moyu flew through the opening and resumed hacking at the Earth Giant.
Grey mist drifted from the edges of the hole in the Earth Giant's palm; the sand and stone at the perimeter were constantly rotting and dissolving, like completely decayed flesh.
This was the Power of Death within the Undead Law.
