Chapter 658
On the battlefield, a multitude of sword lights appeared, and countless enemies were instantly slain, cleaved in two.
As a collective force of 20,000 skeletons, combined with the buff from the [Strong Soldier] skill, although they had not yet reached the God level, they were enough to instantly kill any entity below the God level.
The power of the skill was too great, so great that these guys could not resist it.
Explosive roars thundered.
The Skeleton Kings moved very quickly; after the God-Slaying Sword came the Elemental Riot.
They did not hold back their skills at all.
No tactical arrangement was needed; two skills were enough to instantly kill most enemies.
The steel giants were completely blown to pieces, dead beyond death, and a large number of enemies were also blown to death.
The two Skeleton Kings, one after the other, split up and charged into the enemy ranks, beginning close-quarters combat.
Their greatswords swung wide and freely, sword energy crisscrossing, slicing away countless enemies.
Under the bone greatswords, there was no enemy that could withstand a single blow.
The Headless Knights also collided with the enemies, their Charge skill erupting with astonishing power, sending the enemies flying in disarray.
Whether in the sky or on the ground, none were an exception.
The Headless Knights' swords were equally sharp, and they didn't show any mercy when slashing.
The Skeleton Berserkers followed in quick succession, throwing out their Berserk Kill skills as soon as they arrived, aiming to kill as many enemies as possible in the first instance.
The Skeleton Archmages and Skeleton Marksmen had also begun their assault.
After reaching the Legendary level, their attack range had become astonishingly large.
As for exactly how far their attack range was, even Lin Moyu, their master, was unsure.
In any case, their limits had not yet been discovered.
It was exactly the same as the Skeleton King's: Elemental Riot, only the power was slightly smaller.
But the number of Skeleton Archmages was large enough that the explosions occurred one after another.
The Skeleton Marksmen and their soul-piercing shots never missed their mark.
Although these enemies were only created through some special means, in the pursuit of realism, they actually possessed something similar to a soul.
It was as if every enemy was a real living being.
Lin Moyu could not help but sigh at this; the methods of the Secret Realm's master were superb and inconceivable.
Compared to using puppets for the assessment, it was countless times better.
Lin Moyu believed that 100,000 soldiers and 3 God-level entities were definitely not the limit of the Secret Realm, and certainly not the limit of the Secret Realm's master.
At most, it was the limit that the old man could reach.
As soon as the battle broke out, Lin Moyu's side established an absolute advantage.
The God-level Skeleton King, with a domineering posture, instantly killed three God-level steel giants with just two skills.
Then it charged into the battlefield, launching a massacre.
The Headless Knights were also wreaking havoc, riding their flame bone horses, crisscrossing the battlefield.
They stepped on auras, and various auras—freezing, flame, lightning, poison—acted upon the enemies.
They were already heavily damaged before the battle even began.
The Storm Aura significantly increased the Headless Knights' movement speed, making their movements even faster and more bizarre.
Whether the enemies were Human, Dragon, or Demon, none could withstand their attacks.
Lin Moyu discovered that although the humans, dragons, and demons created by the Secret Realm had powerful auras, they were actually not that strong.
Their skills were chaotic and lacked any method.
They had power but did not know how to utilize it.
"If I remember correctly, these should be the skill memories left behind by members of the three races who entered the assessment secret realm in the past."
"They were eliminated too early, so the skills left behind were pitifully few, or there were even no skills left at all."
"That guy just imitated them, and the result was a hodgepodge."
This assessment was too easy for Lin Moyu; it was not even as good as the previous one.
That enemy that completely simulated Lin Moyu did indeed make Lin Moyu feel a headache.
But now, Lin Moyu had only issued one command, and everything else was left for the Undead Legion to perform freely.
The [Strong Soldier] skill was indeed as he had thought; as he continued to slaughter enemies, the duration of the [Strong Soldier] skill kept increasing. It still existed after 30 seconds and had not entered cooldown.
Actually, at this point, whether it entered cooldown or not was no longer important.
This assessment had already turned into a one-sided slaughter.
Wiping them out was only a matter of time, and it would not even take much time.
In less than ten minutes, the battle was declared over.
Under the unbridled slaughter of the Undead Legion, the 100,000-strong army was decimated, leaving no survivors.
Lin Moyu looked up at the sky, his eyes filled with sincerity, appearing completely harmless.
One could never tell that he was the master of the Undead Legion, having just slaughtered an army of one hundred thousand.
Lin Moyu was waiting for the second round of the assessment, but instead of the assessment, he was met with blood.
The blood of the Source Bird, carrying a thick, fishy smell, fell from the sky, first dripping onto his body.
The scene from before repeated itself.
Lin Moyu was slightly stunned. "The assessment is over?"
"It ended after just one round?"
"Didn't they say the difficulty would double?"
He had thought there would be a second round, a third round.
This was a bit of a joke, was it not?
But it was good that it ended; long nights lead to many dreams.
All he wanted to obtain was the 'Source Skill'; as long as he could get it, that was enough.
A thunderous roar sounded in the sky again, this time not just one, but many.
The old man did not appear; he expressed his anger through the thunder.
As for whether Lin Moyu could understand it, it did not matter.
Lin Moyu, bathed in blood, looked up at the sky and said to himself, "Perhaps it is the restriction of the rules that prevents him from taking action personally."
Lin Moyu knew very well that if he could take action personally, he would undoubtedly die.
His whole body was drenched in blood, and the smell of blood was extremely intense.
Then all the blood seeped into his body, and it was impossible to tell from the surface…
The laws within the blood flowed through his body, becoming a bridge between his soul and the [Primordial Rune].
Soul energy bearing Lin Moyu's mark, driven by the power of the laws, surged toward the [Primordial Rune].
After receiving the power of the laws from the Source Bird, the [Primordial Rune] was truly activated, presenting itself to Lin Moyu in its second form.
A large character 'Soldier' appeared in front of Lin Moyu, floating in mid-air.
Then, drop after drop of blood fell from the sky, landing on the 'Soldier' character.
Having experienced it once, Lin Moyu had experience and knew this was the final step in converting the [Primordial Rune] into a 'Source Skill'.
The conversion needed to be carried out through the blood of the Source Bird.
Lin Moyu had to sigh in admiration once more; the methods of the Secret Realm's master were indeed superb.
The thunderous sound stopped at some point, and the surroundings returned to quiet.
Lin Moyu realized that the other party must have given up.
The rules of the Secret Realm were not something he could oppose; perhaps small changes could be made within it, but the overall situation could not be moved.
He could only watch helplessly as he obtained his second Source Skill.
Soon, the skill star core transformed from the 'Soldier' character appeared before his eyes, then swooshed into his Soul World.
Soul power boiled again, surging madly into the skill star core.
However, because Lin Moyu had consumed too much soul energy before, although his soul level had improved significantly after the feedback, the consumed soul energy was still gone.
After the non-stop recovery of his Divine Power, he still had not fully recovered by now, only reaching about two-thirds of his peak state.
"If I had known, I should have dragged out this assessment."
Lin Moyu realized he had done it too quickly.
Perhaps he did not want to give the other party a chance to cause him trouble again, so Lin Moyu killed them very decisively.
As a result, it was counterproductive, leading to insufficient soul energy.
"I wonder what the fusion rate will be this time."
"I can only do my best and leave the rest to fate."
Lin Moyu was helpless; one cannot seek perfection in everything and must be content.
He knew this principle, and his disappointment was only a flash, and in the blink of an eye, he had figured it out.
A sense of emptiness came from within Lin Moyu's soul, and the Strong Soldier skill star core stopped absorbing.
The Strong Soldier skill star core, like the Gather Power skill star core, also began to spin rapidly.
Because of the insufficient soul energy, its rotation speed was not as fast as the Gather Power skill star core.
Apart from that, everything else was the same.
It also provided feedback of soul energy, allowing Lin Moyu's soul level to improve once again.
[Strong Soldier (Fusion Rate 50%): Consumes soul power; increases basic attributes of self and all summons by 200%, and increases damage caused by all attacks by an additional 500%. The magnitude of attribute increase is only limited by the user's own soul level. Killing enemies while the skill is active allows for the harvesting of enemy souls, replenishing one's own soul consumption, and increasing one's own soul level.].
Chapter 633: When strength is reached, the answer will naturally come
When a powerful skill that could originally only be maintained for 30 seconds, used for saving one's life or killing powerful enemies, became something that could be permanently active…
Lin Moyu could no longer imagine how much his strength had increased.
He felt that even if he leveled up three or five times, the improvement would not be this great.
The only pity was that the fusion rate was not high enough, only 50%.
If he wanted to improve the fusion rate further, it would be much harder than the first time.
"It's already very good; I can't be greedy!"
"Know when to stop; being too greedy will lead to trouble."
Lin Moyu warned himself that everything must have a limit.
He felt that the space seemed to distort for a moment.
A wonderful fragrance drifted into his nose, the warm sun shone on his body, and all fatigue seemed to be swept away.
When Lin Moyu opened his eyes again, he found that he had returned to the pavilion.
Returning to the pavilion again, in the back and forth, his soul level had improved significantly, and his senses had become more acute.
Being in the pavilion, besides the ancient and vast feeling, there was also a sense of heaviness.
Before, Lin Moyu was focused on the assessment and did not observe carefully.
Now that the assessment was over and both skills were in hand, his mind was completely relaxed, and only then did he sense the heaviness hidden within the ancient and vast atmosphere.
"No… besides the heaviness, there is a trace of killing intent."
Lin Moyu frowned slightly; he really sensed that killing intent.
There could be no mistake.
