However, his position was simply too high. A very ordinary sentence from him was anything but ordinary when it fell into the ears of others.
Lin Moyu nodded slightly, indicating he understood the rules.
The middle-aged man's meaning was clear: it was best if he couldn't understand it.
Moreover, throughout the entire process, Lin Moyu constantly felt that the middle-aged man was watching him.
If he lied, he would inevitably be unable to hide it from his eyes.
Therefore, everything Lin Moyu said was the truth; it was just that he hadn't told the whole story.
He truly could not understand the dates on it, nor did he know what those names were.
He guessed they were likely certain place names, possibly place names used in that era, which were different from now.
The middle-aged man wore a smile, seemingly quite satisfied with Lin Moyu's answer.
He put away the box crafted from the Time-Stone, along with the beast skin inside.
Lin Moyu saw that the middle-aged man did not use any storage tools, which was different from others.
Lin Moyu couldn't help but wonder if he also possessed a portable storage space.
This was the first time he had seen someone in the Great World who could store items without needing to use any Dao tools.
The middle-aged man continued to ask, "What is your view on that ancient castle? And what are your thoughts on the great battle from back then?"
How to look at it? Naturally, with his eyes.
Lin Moyu thought to himself, but said calmly on the surface, "The ancient castle is very sturdy; I tried, but I couldn't shake it."
"There are traces of battle on the ancient castle, and I feel these traces are very old. I imagine the great battle back then was very intense, and the people who participated were also very powerful, at least stronger than me."
"The entire manor gives me the feeling of a playground, and the trials we experienced are more like games."
A look of interest appeared in the middle-aged man's eyes, "Oh? Why do you say that?"
Lin Moyu recounted his experiences; because he was the only one who had crossed the grassland to enter the manor, his experience was different from others.
While speaking, Lin Moyu was simultaneously thinking about some things in his heart.
He did not believe the middle-aged man had not received a report from Li Yuanbai.
He must know about the experiences in the hall, he was clear about the game of 'cops and robbers', and he should even know about the toys in Divine Sovereign Wang Xing's hands.
With his intelligence, how could he not deduce that the manor was a playground?
But since he wanted to hear him say it, he would say it once.
Lin Moyu attributed his ability to cross the grassland mostly to his physical body, and a small part to his summoning-type spells.
This was also the truth; the facts were indeed so.
The middle-aged man did not interrupt Lin Moyu's words from beginning to end, and after hearing everything, the look of satisfaction in his eyes grew even richer.
"You obtained many toys, right? Can you let me see them?" the middle-aged man said calmly.
How could Lin Moyu dare not give them? He immediately took out a dozen toys and handed them to the middle-aged man.
After the middle-aged man examined them slightly, a hint of surprise appeared in his eyes, "Can you lend me these things for a while?"
Lin Moyu quickly said, "Please feel free to take them."
The middle-aged man did not stand on ceremony; he put away these toys, and a hint of admiration flowed in his eyes, "You are very outstanding."
Lin Moyu said very humbly, "You flatter me; I only did what I should have done."
While speaking, Lin Moyu clearly felt a faint fluctuation in the aura of Zhu Qiwu beside him.
A single sentence from the middle-aged man was enough to cause Zhu Qiwu's aura to fluctuate.
This was not the same as the Zhu Qiwu in his impression.
It was just a very ordinary compliment; was it really worth it!
Lin Moyu was slightly startled in his heart; he knew that being able to make Zhu Qiwu like this meant the middle-aged man's status and position were extraordinary.
Or rather, the middle-aged man usually never praised others, so an occasional word of praise would cause a change in Zhu Qiwu's emotions.
Since the middle-aged man appeared, Zhu Qiwu had not said a word, just standing honestly to the side like a piece of wood.
Lin Moyu felt that Zhu Qiwu was incomparably honest in front of the middle-aged man.
The middle-aged man looked at Lin Moyu again, "You two go first."
"Yes!"
Zhu Qiwu finally had some movement, bowing respectfully towards the middle-aged man.
His gaze carried respect, and Lin Moyu even saw devotion.
This was the first time he had seen such a Zhu Qiwu.
Lin Moyu also bowed to the middle-aged man and said, "Junior takes his leave."
The middle-aged man waved his hand casually.
Lin Moyu felt the world change; the scene became fragmented and then quickly reorganized.
The familiar starry sky appeared in his line of sight again, with the light of stars shining from afar, bringing faint brightness.
Lin Moyu's chest heaved as he let out a long breath.
The middle-aged man's majesty was too heavy; no matter how approachable his expression was, that majesty on his body could not be erased.
Even a faint trace was enough to make an ordinary True God unable to catch their breath.
Didn't you see that even Zhu Qiwu, this peak God Sovereign, was as obedient as a quail?
Zhu Qiwu's chest was also heaving, and then he let out a long breath, a trail of white smoke cutting through the starry sky, extending for hundreds of kilometers.
Clearly, even Zhu Qiwu was very nervous.
Lin Moyu asked tentatively, "Senior Zhu, who was that senior just now?"
Zhu Qiwu coughed lightly, "A big figure."
A big figure; who didn't know that was a big figure?
Clearly, Zhu Qiwu did not intend to tell him, so Lin Moyu did not pursue the question, turning instead to ask, "Senior, is there any problem with that manor?"
Zhu Qiwu pondered for a moment before saying, "It might involve some secrets from the ancient era, and this old man is not particularly clear about it either."
The ancient era, how far back would that be…
Lin Moyu put on a very curious appearance, "With your status, you must know more than I do."
Don't look at Zhu Qiwu as if he is usually a man of few words; once his chatterbox is opened, he is actually quite capable of talking.
He would even tease and crack jokes with him.
Come to think of it, Zhu Qiwu was a senior who looked serious but was actually very easy to get along with.
Zhu Qiwu said, "I do know some things, but they are all unimportant information."
Seeing that Zhu Qiwu did not refuse to discuss this topic, Lin Moyu knew there was a chance.
He immediately struck while the iron was hot and asked, "Tell me about it!"
Zhu Qiwu said, "Actually, it's very simple; the origin of the battlefield is actually related to the Chaos Rules."
"It is said that a very, very long time ago, the battlefield area was also a lush starry sky."
"Later, the Chaos Rules appeared and devoured the entire starry sky."
"Afterwards, some chaotic areas appeared here. In these areas, the laws are chaotic, and even God Sovereigns would be in danger if they entered."
"Over time, those chaotic areas gradually stabilized, forming various special areas."
"The stellar essence fire area you visited is one of them. There are many such areas in the battlefield."
"Even the same stellar essence fire groups are not limited to just one location."
"But not all chaos can stabilize; there are always some exceptions."
"Like the manor that appeared this time, and some special places that have appeared in the past, it is just like that."
Chapter 1181: If I Could Control the Law of Time
Zhu Qiwu's chatterbox was indeed opened.
He began to talk endlessly, telling almost everything he knew.
He even added his own understanding to it.
At this moment, he seemed to treat Lin Moyu as one of his own.
But Lin Moyu knew very well in his heart that if he thought Zhu Qiwu would tell him everything, that would be a huge mistake.
Zhu Qiwu was not the type of person who didn't know when to keep his mouth shut; on the contrary, he was very clear about what should be said and what should not be said.
What he said was actually content that the public already knew.
If Lin Moyu were a bit stronger, had a higher clearance, and was willing to spend some time, he could have learned this information.
Zhu Qiwu had simply told Lin Moyu in advance; it was nothing special.
However, him saying this also made Lin Moyu realize the essence of the battlefield.
The battlefield was actually formed around special areas; after the chaotic laws became stable, some special areas appeared here.
These areas would continuously produce various materials.
Various races all had demands for these materials, so finally, after countless years of conflict, the current situation was formed.
As for chaotic places like the manor that appeared occasionally, Zhu Qiwu really did not know much.
Too much was involved, and the level was too high.
Zhu Qiwu told Lin Moyu that even if he knew, it would be of no use.
Lin Moyu did not want to delve into information that even someone with Zhu Qiwu's status and strength could not know.
If one's strength was insufficient, participating in such things was no different from seeking death.
Zhu Qiwu patted Lin Moyu's shoulder, "You have performed a meritorious service this time; you should be able to receive quite a few rewards."
Lin Moyu asked, "What kind of rewards?"
Zhu Qiwu shook his head, "How would I know? You'll know when you go back and see for yourself. Anyway, since that person has spoken, your rewards won't be few."
The person Zhu Qiwu referred to was the middle-aged man from inside the black hole just now.
That person was unfathomable and was truly a high-level figure of the Human Race.
A single word from him was more effective than ten or a hundred words from Zhu Qiwu.
But at the same time, Lin Moyu also felt it was strange; why did that person choose a place like a black hole to speak with him?
A black hole was not a good place; God Sovereigns with weaker strength might even die inside if they weren't careful.
Zhu Qiwu activated the teleportation array disc again, bringing Lin Moyu back.
In the pitch-black starry sky, a manor shrouded in green, looking lush and verdant, hung there in a bizarre manner.
The manor looked full of vitality, but only those who had been inside knew that it was filled with murderous intent.
The Human Race military had already issued an order forbidding anyone from entering.
But people from other races still went in; they had not obtained enough information and could not make accurate judgments.
Most of the people who went in died inside and became cannon fodder.
Li Yuanbai had a smile on his face; the more people of the hostile races died, the happier he was.
Divine Sovereign Wang Xing said beside him, "If it weren't for Young Friend Lin, we wouldn't know how many more people would have died."
