He still hadn’t been fooled. If he had truly entered that fake Divine Servant Hall, even if the System arrived, it might not have been able to save him. When it came down to it, the dark shadow simply didn’t want him to enter the real Divine Servant Hall.

It seemed to know very well that once he entered the Divine Servant Hall, it would no longer be able to do anything to him.

Moreover, it seemed to know who could truly enter the Divine Servant Hall. It wasn't just the shadow that knew; the System also knew who could enter, and furthermore, they both clearly understood what would happen after entering.

Lin Moyu continued to walk upward along the Divine Path, his thoughts churning endlessly. From the Wall of Heaven and Earth to this Divine Servant Hall, it all seemed to have been prepared for him. Although it appeared as though one had to reach the end of the Rune Array path to enter, he believed others also had a chance.

One could reach the end of the Rune Array path, but without the System's help, even if he reached it, he would still struggle to escape death. Viewed in this light, everything seemed to have been prepared for him.

The System was also waiting for this moment. He stopped thinking about it for now.

Once he reached the end, perhaps there would be answers. He walked to the end of the first Divine Path.

He saw the second Divine Servant Hall. This hall was no different from the first.

Before entering the Divine Servant Hall, Lin Moyu looked back at the path he had walked and discovered that the Divine Path behind him had already vanished.

This also meant he had no path of retreat; he either had to continue forward or remain trapped here until death arrived. In the distance, the System and the dark shadow had completely ceased fighting. They seemed to know that continuing to fight was meaningless.

From here on, he could only rely on himself. Lin Moyu whispered as he walked into the second Divine Servant Hall, seeing hundreds of large Rune Arrays once again.

It was still filled with points of light, each located within a Rune Array, no different from the first Divine Servant Hall.

What had changed was the strength and level of the Rune Arrays; compared to the first hall, the arrays had become much stronger.

The difficulty of breaking them had increased accordingly, but this still couldn't stump Lin Moyu. He quickly sorted out the structure of the Rune Arrays, found the correct sequence, and began breaking them. The points of light carried a peculiar power of Heaven and Earth.

As they fell into Lin Moyu's body, his physical body and soul continued to improve. As his power grew stronger, Lin Moyu's speed in breaking the arrays increased rather than decreased. In less than half a day, all the Rune Arrays in the second Divine Servant Hall were solved. Lin Moyu's physical body and soul strengthened by another ten percent. He passed through the second Divine Servant Hall.

Chapter 4831: Undead

Lin Moyu stepped onto the Divine Path, heading toward the third Divine Servant Hall. Every Divine Path led to a Divine Servant Hall; every Divine Servant Hall sought eternal life. Before he knew it, Lin Moyu had already walked through eight Divine Servant Halls.

He stood at the entrance of the tenth Divine Servant Hall. The previous eight halls were identical, save for the fact that the Rune Arrays within them became increasingly complex and unfathomable; otherwise, there were no changes. It wasn't until this tenth Divine Servant Hall that there were finally some changes.

In front of the Divine Servant Hall, a stone tablet two people tall appeared, with two lines of golden characters engraved upon it.

The golden characters shimmered with divine light, like the words of Heaven, and a massive pressure swept down.

It landed on Lin Moyu, the pressure reaching straight to his soul and deep into his Dao Heart.

It was as if it were being imprinted into the depths of his soul, becoming an instinctive subconscious, making Lin Moyu accept this statement.

"Tread the Divine Path, enter the Divine Servant Hall, seek eternal life."

Lin Moyu looked at the inscription and let out a soft laugh. "Eternal life cannot be obtained by seeking. It can only be won. How could eternal life ever be something one could just 'seek'? One must fight for it."

"Fight with men, fight with Heaven, fight with the Heaven beyond Heaven."

"Only the final victor can obtain eternal life. I have walked step by step to this point; when have I ever 'sought' anything?" In Lin Moyu's view, these two lines of inscription were completely wrong.

In the battle for the Great Dao, he would not beg. Whoever dared to block him, he would slaughter.

His Dao Heart was rounded and unbreakable, transforming into divine light that shrouded his body. The stone tablet became a stepping stone for Lin Moyu's Dao Heart.

From this moment on, the light of his Dao Heart was brilliant, without any flaws, reaching perfection.

From now on, his Dao Heart was complete, and he would have no doubts about Heaven and Earth.

My heart is the heart of Heaven, my will is the will of Heaven. There is only what I desire; there is nothing that can confuse me. In this battle for the Great Dao, the final victor can only be me.

Lin Moyu passed the stone tablet and stepped into the hall. The moment he entered, the protective divine light of his Dao Heart shot out like a sharp arrow, landing on the stone tablet. The tablet shattered instantly, turning into powder.

Whoever set up the tablet, wanting him to 'seek'—there was no chance of that.

Inside the Divine Servant Hall, Lin Moyu broke the Rune Arrays and collected the power of Heaven and Earth.

This was his opportunity—not an opportunity begged for, but one obtained through his own strength.

Lin Moyu had a vague feeling that this opportunity seemed to be specifically set for him; no one else could obtain it. One day later, all the Rune Arrays in the tenth Divine Servant Hall were solved.

Every Divine Servant Hall could strengthen his power by ten percent and allow him to take a small step forward.

With ten Divine Servant Halls, Lin Moyu's physical body and soul had doubled since he first arrived.

Accumulating bit by bit, gathering sand into a sea, the boundary of a Supreme Hongmeng Expert was finally shattered. Lin Moyu felt his soul and physical body reach a brand-new realm.

This kind of improvement was very pure; there were no insights, he had simply become stronger.

If he were to go back now and face those arrows of rosy light, he could even withstand them directly with his physical body and soul.

Even facing that dark shadow, he was not without the strength to fight. Moreover, since his soul and physical body were not touching the rules, he was confident he could slay the dark shadow right here. His complete Dao Heart told him this feeling was correct; he was stronger than the dark shadow now.

As he stepped onto the eleventh Divine Path, a familiar feeling washed over him. Lin Moyu vaguely felt as if he had been here before.

This feeling was just like the first time he saw runes—familiar, and even carrying a sense of long-lost intimacy.

It seemed some secrets were about to be revealed. Having reached this current realm, some things could naturally be understood. His talent in the path of Rune Arrays was by no means accidental, especially that inexplicable sense of familiarity; it had felt strange from the very beginning.

And when he first obtained the scepter of calamity, the scepter of calamity didn't even have that name back then, yet he had had an inexplicable feeling.

The scepter of calamity seemed as if it should have belonged to him. This kind of feeling had occurred many times.

Once might be a coincidence, but repeated occurrences were naturally unusual. Lin Moyu knew very well that there was definitely something special about him. As his realm improved and his soul grew stronger, many details would constantly surface.

Automatically sorting themselves out, the minute clues gathered together. The attitude of the hongmeng gem toward him in the deepest part of the Ancient Wilderness all pointed to these issues. Lin Moyu knew he would find the answer sooner or later.

Therefore, he never brought it up, leaving everything to time. Now, this answer was about to burst forth; he seemed to have some connection to this place.

The eleventh Divine Servant Hall did not have much internal change; it was still filled with Rune Arrays. It was just that the arrays had become stronger and more complex. Lin Moyu solved them one by one.

It only took him a little over a day to solve all the Rune Arrays in the eleventh Divine Servant Hall. The power of Heaven and Earth within allowed Lin Moyu's physical body and soul to improve by another ten percent. As his physical body and soul continued to grow stronger, Lin Moyu also realized one thing.

His own path of Rune Arrays was also growing stronger. Solving the arrays was simultaneously a process of re-cultivating his path of Rune Arrays.

These Rune Arrays were diverse and ranged from weak to strong, as if letting him walk the path of Rune Arrays all over again. While breaking the arrays, he could take his understanding of the path of Rune Arrays a step further. Although he had already stood at the end of the path of Rune Arrays, his foundation could be made more solid, until he was truly complete—Dao Heart, path of Rune Arrays, physical body, and soul.

This was the great opportunity brought by the Divine Servant Hall and the Divine Path. The arrays in the Divine Servant Halls became increasingly complex, and the time Lin Moyu spent also kept increasing. From initially being able to clear a hall in a short while, now, by the time he reached the nineteenth hall, it took him a full four days to break the arrays in the hall.

Re-experiencing the path of Rune Arrays and having a deeper level of insight into it was indeed excellent. He had trod the Divine Mountain before the Divine Servant Hall, re-experiencing the path of cultivation and stabilizing his cultivation base, and now he was re-experiencing the path of Rune Arrays here, deepening his mastery of it. The Divine Servant Hall further strengthened his physical body and soul. For a cultivator, the Dao Heart is paramount, the soul is the root, and the physical body is the foundation. Everything else must come after that. Why do I feel like someone is training a successor?

But it didn't feel entirely like that. It was really quite interesting. After crossing the Divine Path and arriving before the twentieth Divine Servant Hall, there was no stone tablet here, but there was a humanoid statue. The moment Lin Moyu arrived, the statue transformed into a living person and evolved, a massive aura soaring into the sky, suppressing the wilderness in all directions.

A Supreme Hongmeng Expert? Lin Moyu was a bit stunned; he could actually see a Supreme Hongmeng Expert here.

But the Supreme Hongmeng Expert before him was not a living person; rather, the dead had been resurrected through some special means. Lin Moyu felt a sudden shock in his heart. Wasn't this the same as his Undead?

He felt it slightly and immediately sensed the aura on the other party; it was indeed exactly the same as his Undead.

His techniques had always been unique; to actually see someone else's Undead here, and it being a Supreme Hongmeng Expert, left him astonished. As he was surprised in his heart, the other party had already made a move. A divine sword slashed through the heavens and descended toward him.

Lin Moyu tapped his finger, and a rune flew out, transforming into a Rune Array to block this sword. Bang! Amidst the loud sound, the opponent's divine sword was sent flying.

The Supreme Hongmeng Expert steadied the divine sword, guided it with both hands using sword arts, and the divine sword broke the sky.

The divine sword slashed down again, its power several times stronger than before. Lin Moyu's Rune Array shattered with a roar.

Lin Moyu tapped his finger, and the second Rune Array formed instantly, blocking the remaining sword momentum.

He frowned slightly. He could use techniques? Not only that, but this sword was also a Supreme Hongmeng Treasure. He was not restricted here, while I am suppressed; I can't use anything except the path of Rune Arrays.

No, I still have my physical body and soul. My physical body and soul are quite a bit stronger than his. I can use my physical body and soul to suppress him. Just as the thought crossed his mind, an invisible force descended.

Chapter 4832: Breaking the Situation

His physical body and soul sank; they were actually suppressed as well. Lin Moyu secretly thought, "This is forcing me to defeat him using only Rune Arrays." Previously, re-experiencing the path of Rune Arrays had allowed Lin Moyu to have a deeper understanding of it.

He had already stood at the end of the path of Rune Arrays; doing so had just allowed him to go a step further beyond the end.

The end was still that end, but the deeper his understanding of the path of Rune Arrays, the greater the power the same Rune Array could unleash.

Moreover, Lin Moyu had a feeling that although he had stood at the end of the path of Rune Arrays and had the Hongmeng Jade Array Plate in hand, he still seemed to be missing a sliver from truly completing the path of Rune Arrays. It was just that this sliver was always difficult to comprehend.

Even after re-experiencing the path of Rune Arrays, he still hadn't been able to comprehend it thoroughly.

Fine then, let's use this battle to try and see if I can comprehend the path of Rune Arrays.

Without the aid of external objects, he could only form arrays with runes, facing someone holding a Supreme Hongmeng Treasure.
