Chapter 2223: Refining the Relic, Burning the Soul
Lin Moyu's entire body was enveloped in flames. The Undying Golden Body spontaneously activated, and the Undying Flame flowed over the surface of his skin.
Outside the Undying Flame was the World-Destroying Fire.
The two flames looked very similar but were fundamentally different.
The Undying Flame contained the power of life, a force that could revive beings who had been dead for countless years, turning them into resurrected beings.
The World-Destroying Fire, on the other hand, was pure death, burning and refining everything, completely annihilating it.
As Lin Moyu's realm grew higher, he could see more and more.
He discovered that the Undying Flame and the World-Destroying Fire were opposites, completely different.
This was very similar to the Undying Law, which also contained both the power of life and the power of death.
The two flames seemed to coexist without conflict.
So he enveloped his entire body in the World-Destroying Fire, with the Undying Flame flowing on the surface. As expected, the two flames did not conflict at all.
"One positive, one negative; one illusory, one real..."
"The Undying Flame appears real but actually contains the power of illusion, seemingly connected to time and fate, able to find traces from the distant past to perform resurrection."
"The World-Destroying Fire, on the other hand, is the power of reality, burning the world, destroying everything, erasing all traces."
Lin Moyu's eyes were filled with contemplation as he sensed the World-Destroying Fire and the Undying Flame, understanding their similarities and differences.
He wanted to know not only how but also why.
Days passed, and in the blink of an eye, ten years had gone by.
Lin Moyu remained motionless in the relic, comprehending for a full ten years.
In these ten years, he not only completed the absorption of the World-Destroying Fire's origin but also enhanced his own World-Destroying Fire by at least ten times.
At the same time, his understanding of the World-Destroying Fire greatly improved, making it more effortless to control.
Ten years later, Lin Moyu's eyes carried a hint of madness as he muttered to himself, "The World-Destroying Fire can burn the world, even burning the world's origin."
"Then the Dao poison in my body should also be burnable!"
Lin Moyu felt confident in his judgment. After long periods of enlightenment, much of the Dao poison remained, and only a portion had dissipated over ten years.
According to previous calculations, it would take at least another thirty to fifty years for the Dao poison to be completely cleared.
If the World-Destroying Fire could eliminate the Dao poison, the next steps could be advanced, saving a lot of time.
Lin Moyu located the Dao poison, a small, inconspicuous mark on his soul.
It was a mark planted by the Great World's runes, and various methods had been tried to remove it, all in vain.
Even after self-destructing his soul and using the rebirth talent, the Dao poison couldn't be removed.
A Buddhist chant echoed, and the Buddha Lich appeared beside him.
Using the True Sight technique, Lin Moyu tried to verify through the Law of Fate whether his idea was feasible, whether the World-Destroying Fire could eliminate the Dao poison.
As soon as the True Sight technique was activated, the Buddha Lich let out a sharp scream, and flames suddenly erupted from its body, instantly turning it to ashes.
Lin Moyu was stunned for a moment; the Buddha Lich was dead!
The World-Destroying Fire had just flickered and directly burned the Law of Fate, simultaneously burning the Buddha Lich.
"It seems the Buddha Lich was too weak. Once it involves too powerful a force, it can't function."
This wasn't the first time; the Buddha Lich's limitations were too low, unable to handle overly powerful forces.
"It seems I can only try it myself!"
Lin Moyu's heart stirred, and he used the Fortune Explosion technique to maximize his luck.
He blessed himself, hoping the Fortune Explosion technique might bring him good luck. Whether it worked or not, boosting luck was never a bad idea.
With a dragon's roar, the World-Destroying Fire touched the Dao poison.
A sizzling sound seemed to echo, and intense pain surged from his soul.
Lin Moyu groaned, gritting his teeth, "Burning the soul really isn't pleasant!"
Though it was painful, his eyes were filled with joy.
The Dao poison was indeed decreasing under the burning of the World-Destroying Fire.
Even the Dao poison could be refined and burned; the power of the World-Destroying Fire was astonishing.
"Painful as it is, as long as it works!" Lin Moyu gritted his teeth and endured.
He proceeded cautiously, fearing that a single misstep might burn away his soul.
Half an hour later, the Dao poison was finally completely cleared, and Lin Moyu immediately moved the World-Destroying Fire away.
The World Tree transmitted abundant soul power, replenishing the consumption.
Lin Moyu gasped for breath, feeling the pain recede like a tide, and self-mockingly said, "Burning my own soul with fire, probably only I have ever done that."
No matter how painful the process, clearing the Dao poison was a great achievement.
Lin Moyu's eyes became resolute, "Next, it's time to refine you!"
The World-Destroying Fire floated from his palm, exploding in the void.
In an instant, the World-Destroying Fire crossed space, sweeping through the entire relic within seconds.
Numerous runes collapsed under the burning of the World-Destroying Fire, and space twisted and collapsed as well.
The World-Destroying Fire burned souls and refined the world, its power extremely terrifying.
Even the remnant souls of Heavenly Sovereigns couldn't resist the World-Destroying Fire. The rule worlds left behind by Supremes after their death, without their masters, were even less able to resist.
Lin Moyu could clearly feel the world collapsing, with countless rule powers emerging from the rule world, all being burned away.
"After being burned, the rule power turns into a pure, impurity-free force."
"This force has no attributes, contains no laws or rules, but seems capable of evolving into any law."
"This force should be the world's origin power."
Lin Moyu realized that the world's origin power was extremely important to the Great World and was key to its restoration.
During the refining of the rule world, part of the origin power returned to the heavens and earth, re-entering the Great World.
Another part was refined into world crystals for his own use.
This part of the origin power had no marks and was of little use to the Great World.
"After the death of Supremes and Heavenly Sovereigns, most of their power would return to the Great World, cycling endlessly."
"But the Heavenly Sovereigns left, taking the power that belonged to the Great World with them, breaking the cycle."
Lin Moyu finally understood why the Heavenly Sovereigns felt they had failed the Great World.
Their departure further harmed the already wounded Great World.
It was like rubbing salt into a wound. As beings of the Great World, they naturally felt guilty.
Lin Moyu understood but felt helpless.
After all, they were Heavenly Sovereigns. They had left, so what could be done?
Now, the only hope for restoring the Great World was the Battle Realm, which would arrive in over a thousand years.
Refining the Battle Realm and allowing the Great World to absorb its origin power might be the only way to restore the Great World.
The Finger Ruins rumbled and shook, continuously collapsing.
It grew smaller and smaller, gradually disappearing.
Ten days later, the Finger Ruins completely vanished from the starry sky.
As soon as the Finger Ruins disappeared, the Rune Saint Sovereign received the news.
They knew Lin Moyu had succeeded.
Laughter echoed from the central hall of the Divine City, "Lin Xiaoyou is indeed formidable; even ancient relics couldn't stop him."
The Hao Saint Sovereign also laughed, "Of the six ancient relics, only five remain. Lin Xiaoyou will probably visit them all."
"That's right, I will visit them all!"
Lin Moyu appeared at the entrance of the central hall, striding in.
The Saint Sovereigns all stood up.
"Lin Xiaoyou, you're finally back!"
"Congratulations on your safe return, Master Lin!"
