Chapter 2259: One hundred thousand years ago, the ruins of the God-Slaughtering Sect appeared, shocking the ancestors of all the top powers of the time. Ninety thousand years ago, the Heavenly Pride Tournament began to be held.

On the surface, it was to select heavenly prides, but in secret, it was for luck. This luck was to explore the ruins of the God-Slaughtering Sect. Over the past ten thousand years, the ancestors of various forces have tried countless times to explore it. After all sorts of methods were exhausted and yielded no results, they finally found this solution.

Within the God-Slaughtering Sect, dangers abound. The most obvious danger among them is the death qi.

Death qi can be resisted with one's own power, but even for a Dao Venerable, power has its limits and cannot withstand the endless erosion of death qi.

However, this problem is not difficult to solve; medicinal pills and magical treasures can all resolve it.

Besides death qi, there is a large amount of divine light in the ruins of the God-Slaughtering Sect. This divine light consists of the will, obsessions, techniques, and even the Great Daos of the deceased disciples of the God-Slaughtering Sect.

However, these dangers not only require one's own power to cope with but also consume a large amount of luck.

Therefore, the stronger one's luck, the higher the chance of obtaining the inheritance.

Although those ancestors themselves have strong luck, once their luck is worn away, it is relatively much more difficult to recover.

Furthermore, there are restrictions within the God-Slaughtering Sect; if a Dao Venerable who is too powerful enters, the danger level will increase accordingly.

After repeated experiments and testing, spending ten thousand years, it was determined that those in the Dao Venerable 1st Realm and 2nd Realm were the best candidates, which led to the creation of the Heavenly Pride Tournament.

As for Lin Moyu, because he is the Son of Taiyin, the Third Ancestor temporarily added him in.

As the Third Ancestor of the Lufeng Chamber of Commerce, he still has the privilege to add someone.

In any case, Lin Moyu did not go to share other people's luck, and there was no conflict in terms of interests.

Lin Moyu felt that there must be other agreements between the Third Ancestor and the ancestors of other forces, but that was not something he needed to be concerned about.

In this exploration of the God-Slaughtering Sect, he only cooperates with the Third Ancestor; it has nothing to do with anyone else.

The journey was silent; everyone was moving forward while holding onto the same rope.

No one spoke; everyone was looking at the information provided by Lu Lian.

Chapter 2789: Know a Thing or Two About Artifact Arrays and Rune Arrays

Passing through the mist, the Power of Origin weakened, and wisps of death qi blew over like a gentle breeze. The voice of the Third Ancestor rang in everyone's ears, "We have arrived."

Lin Moyu opened his eyes and saw several familiar faces. Saintess Xianlian, Saint Son Tianhuan, Dongfang Wuwen, and Lu Fengyao were all there.

Besides them, there were several strangers. There were three of them in total, their bodies seemingly shrouded by an invisible Great Dao, with the Power of Origin rising and covering their entire bodies, making it impossible to see their faces.

The three of them had profound and immensely powerful auras. Lin Moyu knew that these three must come from the nine top forces of the Southern Continent and were ancestors of their respective forces.

It was impossible to tell which three forces they came from. Three of the nine top forces had come; it seemed they really valued this exploration. Perhaps, they valued it every time.

Scanning with his gaze, he finally saw the Third Ancestor. The Third Ancestor stood at the very front, also shrouded in mist, his face and figure unclear, exuding mystery all over.

Lin Moyu couldn't help but chuckle inwardly, "It seems the Third Ancestor is still giving me face, at least willing to let me see his true face…"

Before the thought finished, Lin Moyu was stunned for a moment. He suddenly realized, was the Third Ancestor he was seeing his true face? That was hard to say!

With thoughts flowing, Lin Moyu shook his head inwardly, "These old guys just like to make things mysterious; is there any need for that?" "Perhaps when one reaches their realm, their way of thinking changes."

The Third Ancestor turned around. Although his whole body was shrouded in mist, his gaze swept over with incomparable sharpness, like a sharp sword sweeping over the few heavenly prides.

Several of them felt their skin sting, feeling a bit uncomfortable. The Third Ancestor's voice rang in their ears, "You have all finished reading the materials, right?"

"Once you go inside, no one can help you; you must be careful in your actions. If you encounter danger, retreat immediately. According to past experience, those who retreat will not be harmed; there is no need for you to force yourselves."

As he spoke, he waved his large hand, and five array disks flew out, landing in the hands of Lin Moyu and the other four.

The array disks were only the size of a palm, very exquisite, and the patterns carved on them were extremely complex. Lin Moyu knew at a glance that this array disk was extraordinary, at least reaching the 7th rank.

The material of the array disk itself was very powerful, mixed with high-grade origin crystals, which could continuously provide power for the array disk.

Lin Moyu looked at the array disk in his hand as if admiring a beautiful work of art. Obviously, the array master who refined this array disk had reached a truly astonishing level of attainment. "At least an 8th-rank array grandmaster," Lin Moyu judged in his heart.

The Third Ancestor's voice rang out again, "This array disk can to a certain extent resist the attacks of techniques within the ruins and reduce the consumption of luck. If there is danger, you can also detonate the array disk; it can ensure your safety for five minutes. Take advantage of this time to retreat immediately."

"Now, you all refine the array disks first, then we shall set off."

Several people immediately refined the array disks; streams of the Power of Origin surged, and the array disks in their hands shone brightly. The benefit of an array disk is that even if one does not understand arrays, one can still use it.

Array disks also belong to the magical treasures of array masters; they are not easy to refine and are very powerful. Powerful array disks also require some time to refine. Normally, the higher the realm, the faster the refining speed.

Saintess Xianlian's realm was undoubtedly in the first place; she should be the one who refined it the fastest. Lin Moyu had the lowest realm, only a Mid-stage Heavenly Venerate, so he should be the slowest to refine it. But reality was not so.

The first to complete the refining was Lin Moyu. Lin Moyu was familiar with arrays, and his own array level had already reached the 6th rank; his understanding of arrays was far beyond ordinary cultivators. Moreover, he was proficient in both Artifact Arrays and Rune Arrays. Although the array disk in his hand reached the 7th rank, he was still handy in refining it.

Refining an array disk requires running one's soul power throughout the entire array disk, leaving one's own soul imprint on every single array pattern. At least eighty percent must be covered to be considered completed.

Relying on his familiarity with arrays, Lin Moyu's soul power traversed every corner of the array disk in the blink of an eye, without missing even the smallest detail.

As for the others, even Saintess Xianlian, who had the highest realm, was still groping through the complex patterns inside the array disk with her soul power; her refining speed was not fast.

After Lin Moyu finished refining the array disk, it turned into a stream of light and burrowed into Lin Moyu's body. When he wanted to use it, he just needed a thought. Including the Third Ancestor, four ancestor-level figures looked over simultaneously. Although their gazes were hidden in the mist, Lin Moyu could still feel the surprise in their gazes.

The Third Ancestor's voice rang in his ears, "You are also proficient in arrays?" Lin Moyu replied, "Just know a little bit."

The Third Ancestor clearly didn't believe him, "You call this knowing a little bit? Tell the truth, what level have you reached? Artifact Array or Rune Array?"

Lin Moyu didn't hide it either, "I haven't specifically tested it, I guess it's around the 5th or 6th rank, a bit of both Artifact Arrays and Rune Arrays."

His telepathic communication with the Third Ancestor could not be hidden from the other three ancestors. In fact, the Third Ancestor didn't intend to hide it; if he wanted to hide it, he wouldn't have asked.

The divine light wood on Lin Moyu was also of no use to them; they could see how old Lin Moyu really was. A Heavenly Venerate over two thousand years old was already incredibly astonishing. If he had also cultivated the Dao of Arrays to such a level, he was no longer just a genius; he was definitely a freak.

The gazes of several people converged on Lin Moyu; if Lin Moyu's skin wasn't thick enough, he would have felt embarrassed. From their gazes, Lin Moyu couldn't see any emotion. These ancestors had long hidden their emotions deeply; their minds were like the sea, impossible to fathom.

The Third Ancestor's voice rang in Lin Moyu's ears again. This time, the Third Ancestor's voice became serious, "After going inside, if possible, help me take good care of Feng Yao."

This time, the Third Ancestor was communicating privately, and others couldn't hear it. Lin Moyu answered the Third Ancestor with his eyes; Lu Fengyao was his friend, and he would take care of her even without the Third Ancestor saying so. Of course, the premise was that he could protect himself. If he couldn't even protect himself, he couldn't talk about taking care of others.

Finally, Saintess Xianlian also refined the array disk. There was no joy in her beautiful eyes; instead, she stared straight at Lin Moyu. She had also heard the conversation between Lin Moyu and the Third Ancestor just now.

She couldn't have imagined that this guy Lin Moyu was actually an array master above the 5th rank, and was proficient in both Rune Arrays and Artifact Arrays. This meant that besides arrays, Lin Moyu might also be proficient in runes.

Saintess Xianlian thought of the first round of the Heavenly Pride Tournament. For the last rune, she had comprehended the secret technique from the sound of the Great Dao, but Lin Moyu might have directly comprehended the rune. "It must be like that, yes, it must be."

"At that time, we were all comprehending the sound of the Great Dao, but he directly comprehended the rune, which is why he could surpass us." Saintess Xianlian felt that her thought was correct.

Her gaze was extremely complex. Her small mouth moved, and although she didn't say anything, Lin Moyu could tell from the shape of her mouth that she was saying the word "monster."

Chapter 2790: Big Sister Will Protect You!

After Saintess Xianlian, Dongfang Wuwen and Saint Son Tianhuan also completed the refining. The two of them also heard the conversation between Lin Moyu and the Third Ancestor, and their gazes toward Lin Moyu were like looking at a monster. Lu Fengyao's realm was slightly lower, and her refining speed was slightly slower; it would take a while longer.

One of the three ancestors suddenly spoke, "Little friend, I wonder what your background is?" His tone was very calm, without any airs.

Before Lin Moyu could answer, the Third Ancestor's voice already rang in his ears, "He is trying to win you over; don't pay any attention to him."

Lin Moyu's heart was clear as a mirror, "This junior has no background, I wonder which Holy Land or sect the senior comes from."

The mist on the ancestor who spoke gradually dissipated, revealing his true face. The first impression the gray-robed old man gave Lin Moyu was that of decay, as if he would die in the next second.

"This should be a secret technique that can preserve one's vitality." "The old age is just an appearance; this is not his true face."

Lin Moyu felt that this old man's realm was not as profound as the Third Ancestor's. He was different from the Third Ancestor; although the Third Ancestor had also lived for countless years, he was still full of vitality.

The gray-robed old man removing his mist had already expressed his sincerity. He squeezed out a smile, "Old man, Hanshui Holy Land, Ancestor Gu Cang."

Lin Moyu was shocked in his heart, "It is actually him." In the purchased materials, there were materials about Hanshui Holy Land. Because of Saint Master Gu Hanyu, Lin Moyu had carefully read through the materials about Hanshui Holy Land. Among them were records about Ancestor Gu Cang.
