Lin Moyu suppressed the shock in his heart and erased his unrealistic fantasies.

Heavenly Dragon said, "Absorb as much of the dragon god tree branch's aura as you can; it will be beneficial to you."

"Don't you have the dragon soul crystal? The dragon soul crystal can also help you absorb it."

"I will continue smelting the cold star ice crystal. Cultivate on your own."

The cold star ice crystal was very stubborn; even with help from both inside and out, smelting it would take quite some time.

Before cultivating, Lin Moyu asked again, "What exactly is the Great Dao Law you mentioned earlier?"

Heavenly Dragon said, "No rush. I'll tell you later. You cultivate first."

"I need to put my full effort into smelting this thing. This thing is really tough!"

Watching Heavenly Dragon grit his teeth, Lin Moyu stopped asking. He would know sooner or later.

He quickly entered a state of cultivation and began to absorb the Laws.

He absorbed more Power of Rules from the Law Galaxy, sublimated them into the Power of Rules, and integrated them into his own Rule World.

The stronger the Rule World, the more powerful the soul would become, which would then feed back into the physical body, raising his cultivation level.

The entire cultivation process was like this. It didn't sound complicated, but it was difficult to execute.

Especially for someone like Lin Moyu who possessed four kinds of Laws, he had to absorb the Power of Laws of four types simultaneously and sublimate them into the Power of Rules. His cultivation speed would be four times slower than those Saint Venerables who cultivated a single Law.

However, Lin Moyu was different. He could even multitask while drawing runes, let alone absorbing the Power of Laws.

He multi-tasked, simultaneously absorbing the Power of Laws from four Law Galaxies, sublimating them, and sending them into his Rule World to strengthen it.

Absorbing Laws and sublimating them into Rules required consuming soul power. Even Saint Venerables had to stop for a period of time during cultivation to wait for their soul power to recover.

But Lin Moyu didn't need to. With the help of the World Tree, just for cultivation, his soul power was inexhaustible.

As soon as he used a little, the World Tree would replenish it.

The cultivation process for a Saint Venerable was very long. For instance, Saint Venerable Hao had cultivated for tens of thousands of years and was still some distance away from the Half-step Supreme realm.

Lin Moyu had only become a Saint Venerable for a few hundred years, yet he was already about to step into the Half-step Supreme realm. This was inseparable from the help of the World Tree.

While he was cultivating, the dragon god tree branch also scattered some peculiar aura, which drilled into Lin Moyu's soul.

The speed of absorbing Laws suddenly increased by about ten percent, yet the consumption of soul power did not increase.

"It is indeed useful!" Lin Moyu knew that Heavenly Dragon hadn't exaggerated; it was truly effective.

If the dragon god tree branch could increase cultivation speed by ten percent, the dragon god tree would surely increase it even more.

However, Lin Moyu was not very impressed by the ten percent efficiency increase.

"Ten percent is fine; it's better than nothing!"

Just as he was thinking this, the dragon soul crystal suddenly opened its mouth and let out bursts of dragon roars.

A ten-colored light flashed on its body simultaneously, and it began to frantically absorb the aura of the dragon god tree branch!

Heavenly Dragon, who was struggling with the cold star ice crystal, suddenly felt something wrong. When he looked back, his huge dragon eyes nearly popped out.

His eyes widened, "What the hell!"

Above Lin Moyu's head, a vortex formed. One end of the vortex was the dragon god tree branch, and a large amount of the dragon god tree's energy was being sucked away by the vortex.

Heavenly Dragon's eyelids twitched, "I told you to absorb it, not to absorb it like this!"

Lin Moyu was immersed in cultivation and didn't hear him at all; he kept absorbing.

In reality, it was the ten-colored dragon soul crystal that was absorbing. The dragon god tree branch contained a certain mysterious power, which, besides being helpful for cultivation, was even more helpful to the Dragon Race.

The dragon soul crystal was a treasure of the Dragon Race and was equally helpful.

The ten-colored dragon soul crystal, out of instinct, began to devour the mysterious power within the dragon god tree branch in large gulps, and the tenth color gradually became richer.

Lin Moyu didn't care if it was too much. He kept saying, "Absorb, absorb, absorb as much as you can."

Heavenly Dragon glared for a while, only to find he could do nothing about it.

He had been the one to say it, telling Lin Moyu to absorb as much as possible; he couldn't go back on his word.

As a dignified Heavenly Dragon, he had to maintain his face.

"Whatever. Anyway, the dragon god tree can recover automatically; it just takes some time."

"Besides, now that I've reached the Heavenly Venerable realm, the dragon god tree branch isn't of much use to me anymore."

Thinking this, he felt much better and turned his head to continue smelting the cold star ice crystal.

The 100,000-meter-tall dragon god tree branch gradually dimmed in color under the frantic absorption of the ten-colored dragon soul crystal.

The ten-colored dragon soul crystal absorbed nearly half of its mysterious power and finally fully formed.

The tenth color became as rich as the other nine, and the ten colors maintained a balance.

The fully formed ten-colored dragon soul crystal let out a high-pitched dragon roar that echoed through the Rule World, and at the same time, it spat out a large amount of Dragon Breath onto Lin Moyu's soul.

As the Dragon Breath burned, Lin Moyu not only suffered no harm but actually showed an expression of enjoyment.

His soul became purer in the Dragon Breath, and quite a few more impurities were refined away.

Unknowingly, Lin Moyu's soul gained an indescribable nobility and was also imbued with quite a bit of the Dragon Race's aura.

Bang!

His soul became pure and powerful, the bottleneck shattered at the sound, and Lin Moyu finally stepped into the Half-step Supreme realm.

The Half-step Supreme realm actually still belonged to the great realm of the Other Shore Realm; it could also be seen as the peak of the Other Shore Realm.

This level was much stronger than a Saint Venerable, but a bit weaker than a true Supreme.

The difference lay in the fact that the Rule World of a Supreme had integrated the Power of Origin and gained the recognition of the world, allowing them to mobilize the Power of Origin for battle.

The Power of Origin was very strong.

However, some powerful Half-step Supremes had some of their techniques fused with the Power of Origin as well.

Truly powerful Half-step Supremes were entirely capable of defeating the weakest Supremes.

Just like Lin Mohan; when she was a Half-step Supreme, she already possessed offensive power equivalent to a Supreme.

If she encountered a trash Supreme, Lin Mohan was equally capable of killing them.

After Lin Moyu became a Half-step Supreme, he cultivated for a while longer and felt that his techniques had become stronger by a notch.

Except for the Bone Hell, almost every technique would strengthen along with his cultivation level.

"The Skeleton Divine General should also be a Half-step Supreme now. After forming the Undead Legion, it shouldn't be weaker than a mid-stage Supreme."

"If firing on all cylinders, the Skeleton King should be able to compete with a high-stage Supreme."

"Bone Hell… forget it. This thing isn't very obedient, but it's useful. Below the Supreme Realm, no matter how many come, they will all die."

"It's a pity that there is no more time to raise it to the Supreme Realm; otherwise, no matter how many Supremes the Dou Realm sends, they wouldn't be enough."

As his cultivation level increased, his physical body improved along with it.

The Undying Golden Body became stronger. Lin Moyu knew that relying solely on his physical body, he was enough to contend with existences like Elder Xing of the Human Emperor.

His soul had long been at the Supreme Realm, and now it had taken another small step forward, standing firmly within the Supreme Realm.

The soul was the foundation of the Rule World. With his soul reaching the Supreme Realm, it was equivalent to paving the way for Lin Moyu.

As long as he had enough Power of Origin, Lin Moyu could step into the Supreme Realm.

However, if Lin Moyu wanted to become a Supreme of the Great World, he would have to traverse the Divine Path and gain the recognition of the Great World.

Soul, techniques, physical body—all were strong. Lin Moyu realized that his foundation was extremely solid, with almost no weaknesses.

Cultivation ended, and he slowly opened his eyes, only to find the starry sky silent.

Heavenly Dragon was gone; he didn't know where he had gone.

The cold star ice crystal was also gone, vanished without a trace.

Only the dragon god tree branch, which had had more than half of its power sucked away, remained. Now, the dragon god tree branch was only 50,000 meters tall, half as long as before.

"Where did he go?"

Lin Moyu did not leave. As long as the dragon god tree branch was still there, Heavenly Dragon wouldn't go far.

No matter where he went, he would return sooner or later.

In the Human Star Territory, the Human Emperor suddenly issued the highest order.

All Human Race cultivators were to retreat back into the star territory and were forbidden from going out.

All outgoing teleportation arrays of the Human Race were shut down, and the Human Star Territory was completely sealed off.

The army was subsequently mobilized and began to assemble.

Everyone was confused. The great war had clearly ended, so why was this still necessary?

Could it be that a new enemy was coming?

However, the Human Emperor Network provided no explanation, only telling everyone to maintain their cultivation and not be slack.

The Human Race now possessed sufficient resources; even without going out to seek opportunities, it was enough for their cultivation needs.

Most people had no objections to the Human Emperor's order.

But there were always some troublemakers who didn't want to listen. Whatever they were forbidden from doing, they insisted on doing.

Regarding such people, the Human Emperor did not bother with them and let them leave as they pleased.

However, from then on, they would no longer have the qualifications to return.

The Human Emperor revoked their status as members of the Human Race. It sounded somewhat cruel, but the Great World had always been cruel.

The Human Race of the past had experienced that kind of cruelty, and they knew what to do.

Now, some of the new generation of the Human Race had not experienced it, especially some geniuses who were a bit ignorant of the immensity of heaven and earth; let them experience it for themselves.

What the consequences of disobeying orders were like.

The Human Emperor did not even announce the punishment for those who left without permission, which also led to more people leaving.

These people were no longer members of the Human Race and would never have the qualifications to return.

The Human Star Territory was sealed and entered a state of martial law.

In a certain part of the Human Star Territory, dozens of galaxies were concentrated there, also covered by the Human Race's formation.

The Starry Merman Race lived here.

They had carried out a second migration, bringing their planetary resources, and came to the Human Race.

This was also a matter of necessity. If the Dou Realm really came, they would be alone outside and could not possibly block the Dou Realm's attack.

Just one Supreme could slaughter them all.

After discussion, Clan Leader Yu Chimei made a decision to move the entire clan to the Human Star Territory.

Only in this way would they have a glimmer of survival. If the Human Race also lost, then they could only die along with them.

There were also two or three other small races who had absolutely no objections; they originally had no power to protect themselves and followed the Human Race completely.

At this moment, less than a hundred years remained until the arrival of the Dou Realm.

In the Boundary Land, Lin Moyu had waited for a full two years, and the silent starry sky finally showed a change.

A huge gap suddenly appeared in the starry sky, and Heavenly Dragon rushed out from the gap.

He was soaked through, water dripping down from him with a splashing sound.

Heavenly Dragon laughed loudly, "I'm back!"

Lin Moyu looked at Heavenly Dragon, "You went to the World Sea?"

The water on Heavenly Dragon's body was water from the World Sea; it was obvious he had gone to the World Sea.

Heavenly Dragon shouted, "Asking when you already know the answer; it's not like you don't recognize the water of the World Sea."

Lin Moyu said, "You're injured?"

He saw that some dragon scales on Heavenly Dragon's body were shattered, and there were several places where the flesh and skin were split open, oozing blood.
