Chapter 2047

Lu Fengyao rolled her eyes at him. "No need to flatter me."

Lin Moyu smiled. He was not lying. With so many Heavenly Venerables falling down, why was Lu Fengyao the first one he found?

If that wasn't good luck, what was?

Lu Fengyao asked, "I wonder where those guys went."

Lin Moyu shook his head. "Currently, no…"

Before he could finish his sentence, Lin Moyu suddenly turned to look into the distance.

Lu Fengyao asked in confusion, "What's wrong?"

Lin Moyu said, "I've discovered something. Follow me."

As he spoke, he flew forward, and Lu Fengyao curiously followed.

There was no Dao Wind here. Aside from a vast ocean identical to the Boundary Sea, there was nothing.

Lin Moyu had previously looked with his Eye of the Undead and saw no Soul Fire. There were no other living beings in this world.

He had sent out over a million Skeleton Divine Generals to explore in all directions, and by now, they were completely scattered.

The fallen Heavenly Venerables were scattered everywhere, and their whereabouts were unknown. Aside from being lucky enough to run into Lu Fengyao, he had not found anyone else.

From this, it could be inferred that after the altar collapsed, everyone had scattered, and they had scattered very far. Whether those people were dead or alive was also unknown.

Lu Fengyao flew forward with Lin Moyu, asking curiously, "What did you find?" Lin Moyu replied, "A fish."

"A fish?"

Lu Fengyao expressed her confusion, but she soon realized that it really was a fish.

An indescribably giant fish, like a continent, floated slowly in the vast ocean. This fish was so massive that it could be seen from a great distance.

Lin Moyu swore this was the largest fish he had ever seen, far larger than the General Whale he had seen before. Its shape was like a whale, yet it was covered in thick scales.

Each scale was like an island. As it rose and fell with the waves, the scales shook constantly, kicking up boundless waves.

Even the well-traveled Lu Fengyao showed a look of shock. "How can there be such a massive fish?!"

Lin Moyu said, "I have never seen such a massive fish either."

Sizes in the Boundary Sea could not be compared to those in the Great World.

Supremes in the Great World could become infinitely large, even reaching dozens of light-years, because the laws of the Great World had no restrictions on physical size.

However, in the Boundary Sea World, they would face many restrictions.

Lin Moyu had tried before; even at his full power, his physical size was only ten thousand meters tall.

According to Heavenly Venerable Shuizhi, only those in the Heavenly Venerable Realm could exceed ten thousand meters, with a limit of one million meters, and only those in the Dao Venerable Realm could exceed one million meters.

The fish before them was not just a million meters; it was more than hundreds of millions of meters.

Only from a very far distance could the two of them barely make out the outline of this fish.

If they got too close, they wouldn't be able to see it clearly at all.

Lin Moyu asked, "If realm is determined by physical size, what realm would this fish be?"

Lu Fengyao thought for a moment. "Above one million meters is the Dao Venerable, but as for the upper limit of a Dao Venerable's size, I am not sure."

Now, what the two of them could be sure of was that this was a fish of the Dao Venerable Realm.

Lin Moyu frowned. Through his Eye of the Undead, he saw that this fish was not a living thing.

Lin Moyu whispered, "It seems to be dead."

Lu Fengyao hummed in agreement. "Indeed, I don't feel any life aura, but we can't rule out the possibility that it might be in a deep sleep or hibernation."

Lu Fengyao did not have the Eye of the Undead and could not directly see souls, which was why she made this guess.

Lin Moyu, however, knew that this giant fish was dead.

Suddenly, the scales on the giant fish's body began to gleam, and lines began to emerge one by one.

The giant fish's mouth slowly opened, letting out a dull, heavy sound. In an instant, countless waters of the Boundary Sea surged toward it!

Chapter 2460: Someone Wants to Resurrect This Fish

The sudden commotion startled them both.

Just moments ago, both of them had agreed that this giant fish was dead.

But now, it had suddenly started to move.

Its mouth opened, emitting a low cry, while infinite waters of the Boundary Sea poured into its giant maw. Lin Moyu and Lu Fengyao looked at each other, both seeing the shock in the other's eyes. Lu Fengyao whispered, "It was clearly dead."

Lin Moyu was even more certain than Lu Fengyao that this giant fish was indeed dead.

But what was going on with the situation before them?

Lin Moyu whispered, "It is definitely dead. Its current movements should be related to the Dao Patterns on its scales."

Lu Fengyao said, "Do you mean the Dao Patterns are controlling it?"

Lin Moyu said, "Whether it's the Dao Patterns controlling it is still uncertain, but they are definitely involved."

Lu Fengyao observed carefully. Although she did not understand Dao Patterns either, she could discern a thing or two and found that what Lin Moyu said was correct.

Lu Fengyao asked with some confusion, "You understand Dao Patterns?"

Lin Moyu shook his head. "I don't. It's just a feeling."

Lu Fengyao was left speechless. She had only been able to make out some clues because of her family heritage, which had brought her into contact with Dao Patterns, combined with her own current realm.

Yet Lin Moyu, who had neither background nor heritage and whose realm was only that of a Peak Supreme, was actually able to see it as well.

Lu Fengyao couldn't help but think, "Could this be talent?"

More and more Boundary Sea water was swallowed by the giant fish, forming a terrifying vortex. The vortex grew stronger, and more and more Boundary Sea water surged over.

A moment later, the countless scales on the giant fish's back suddenly spread open, and a large amount of Boundary Sea water spewed out.

The Boundary Sea water that entered the fish's mouth circulated through its massive body once before being returned.

Lu Fengyao asked in bewilderment, "What on earth is it doing?"

Lin Moyu said in a deep voice, "It is refining the Boundary Sea water. The Boundary Sea water it swallowed has been refined, and when it is spewed back out, the power inside is already gone."

Boundary Sea water was different from ordinary water; it contained powerful energy.

Anyone entering the Boundary Sea would have to withstand the impact brought by the Boundary Sea water.

The Boundary Sea water treated everyone equally; even creatures living in the Boundary Sea could not avoid it.

This also resulted in the fact that in the Boundary Sea below five hundred thousand meters, only creatures of the Heavenly Venerable Realm could survive.

The deeper the Boundary Sea, the more powerful the energy contained within its water.

It was precisely because of the existence of the Boundary Sea water that Boundary Sea creatures could nurture origin crystals. This Power of Origin came from the Boundary Sea water.

And right now, the giant fish had refined the Boundary Sea water, extracting the power within it.

That energy contained a large amount of the Power of Origin, all of which was refined by it.

But why would a dead giant fish refine Boundary Sea water? What meaning did this have for it?

Just then, Lin Moyu suddenly saw a High-level Heavenly Venerable of the Demon Race drifting along with the Boundary Sea water. He was clearly still unconscious and was swallowed into the giant fish's mouth along with the water.

Lin Moyu saw it very clearly. His Eye of the Undead saw the other party's Soul Fire enter the giant fish's mouth and then quickly extinguish.

That Demon Race Heavenly Venerable was dead. After being swallowed by the giant fish, he died silently.

Lu Fengyao also witnessed this scene. Although she did not have the Eye of the Undead, she still knew what had happened based on her perception in the Heavenly Venerable Realm.

Lu Fengyao's gaze became grave. A High-level Heavenly Venerable had died just like that.

If it were her instead, her fate would probably be no better.

Even if she possessed a magic treasure of the Dao Venerable Realm, Lu Fengyao had no confidence that she could survive.

Lu Fengyao felt a fatal threat and whispered, "What should we do?"

Lin Moyu shook his head. "No rush, let's observe a bit more!"

He had to wait for the Skeleton Divine Generals to fully explore this space to see if there was anything else besides the giant fish.

Lu Fengyao had no other choice for the time being, so she could only listen to Lin Moyu and wait quietly.

Three hours later, the Dao Patterns on the giant fish's body gradually dimmed, and its mouth slowly closed.

A moment later, the scales on its back closed, and the giant fish became still once more.

Everything returned to tranquility, as if none of what had happened before had ever occurred.

During those three hours, Lin Moyu had been studying the Dao Patterns.

Lin Moyu discovered that although Dao Patterns were different from runes and were much more complex, they still shared some commonalities with runes.

Dao Patterns seemed to be an upgraded version of runes, existing at a higher level.

Combining the Dao Patterns on the giant fish's body with the runes he had mastered, Lin Moyu came up with an unbelievable conjecture.

However, it was still just a conjecture, and he was not certain.

Now that the Dao Patterns had retracted and the giant fish was still, Lin Moyu whispered, "I'm going over to take a look."

Lu Fengyao knit her delicate brows. "Look at what?"

"The Dao Patterns!"

As he spoke, Lin Moyu had already flown over. After hesitating for a few seconds, Lu Fengyao followed him.

A ray of light flew out from Lu Fengyao's body and landed on Lin Moyu.

Lu Fengyao expanded the protective range of her jade bead to envelop them both.

Lin Moyu smiled slightly. "Thank you, Sister Feng Yao."

Lu Fengyao asked, "Can you understand Dao Patterns?"

Lin Moyu shook his head. "I don't. But I feel they are somewhat similar to runes; perhaps I can discover something." Lu Fengyao showed surprise. "You understand runes?"

Lin Moyu nodded. "I know a thing or two."

Lu Fengyao looked at Lin Moyu as if he were a monster. "You've only cultivated for two thousand years, yet you even understand runes. I really don't know how you cultivate."

Lin Moyu was very modest. "I only understand a little bit; it's nothing."

Lu Fengyao did not believe Lin Moyu's words at all. Looking at this guy, he didn't seem like someone who only understood a little bit.

The two of them approached the giant fish and saw the Dao Patterns engraved on its scales.

The Dao Patterns on the scales were different from those on the fish bones.

The Dao Patterns on the fish bones seemed naturally formed, giving off a feeling of seamless integration.

In contrast, the Dao Patterns on the scales before them looked as if they had been engraved by someone, lacking that natural feel.

With just one look, Lin Moyu was certain that someone had engraved the Dao Patterns on the scales. He immediately thought of the person who had built the altar.

The Dao Patterns on the scales and those on the altar shared a striking similarity; they must have come from the same hand.

Recalling the scenes from before, Lin Moyu carefully went over everything that had happened since he entered this special space, not letting a single detail slip by.

The events before and after gradually connected together, and in the end, he arrived at a highly probable answer.

Lin Moyu muttered in a low voice, "He wants to resurrect the giant fish!"

Lu Fengyao didn't hear clearly. "What did you say?"

Lin Moyu whispered, "I speculate that all the arrangements here are meant to resurrect this giant fish." Lu Fengyao was startled. "Resurrect it? How is that possible? It is clearly dead!"

Lin Moyu said, "Nothing is impossible. Perhaps a Dao Venerable has this ability!"

Defying heaven to change fate and rising from the dead were like fairy tales in Lu Fengyao's understanding.

However, Lin Moyu, who possessed the Resurrection of the Dead, felt that it was not impossible.

Lu Fengyao still found it hard to believe. "Could you have misjudged?"

Lin Moyu said, "It's hard to say. I'm just saying there is such a possibility. However, that isn't important. What is important is how we find a way out and leave this place."

"If it really is as I guessed, and a Dao Venerable arranged all this, it actually has nothing to do with us. That is something only a Dao Venerable needs to care about."

Lu Fengyao hummed in agreement. "Then let's not worry about it and look for a way out."
