Chapter 2143: Perhaps It Really Can Become Hell
The Bone Hell absorbed a large amount of Undying Laws, and the cup rapidly expanded to its limit.
After the cup expanded, it needed more water to fill it. The Starry Sky Beasts were that water.
Large numbers of Starry Sky Beasts were devoured, and the Bone Hell gradually strengthened.
For some reason, Lin Moyu felt a slight sense of ease, coming from the Great World.
"Karma..."
He muttered to himself, sensing subtle changes from the Great World.
In Lin Moyu's perception, as he killed more and more Starry Sky Beasts, the Great World seemed to become lighter.
This indicated that the Starry Sky Beasts also had some karmic connection to the Great World, and were one of its burdens.
"Why is this?"
"Why is there karma between them?"
"Aren't Starry Sky Beasts supposed to be creatures of the Great World?"
Lin Moyu suddenly realized his thinking was incorrect. Starry Sky Beasts were not necessarily creatures of the Great World.
In the past, powerful beings in the Great World had plundered the origins of many worlds, merging those worlds with the Great World.
The races from those worlds also entered the Great World, becoming alien races.
Along with them came Starry Sky Beasts from other worlds.
Starry Sky Beasts from various worlds mixed with those of the Great World.
After countless years, it became impossible to distinguish who was who.
No one had ever paid attention to this point. Perhaps even the former Heavenly Venerables never considered it.
After all, although Starry Sky Beasts were strong, they were scattered and did not have a strong presence.
Lin Moyu finally understood, "So that's how it is."
"It seems that to completely sever the karma of the Great World, even the Starry Sky Beasts cannot be spared."
Lin Moyu also knew that killing all the Starry Sky Beasts was almost impossible.
They were distributed throughout every corner of the Great World, both inside and outside the realm.
Not only did he currently have only 500 million Skeleton Generals, even if he had ten or a hundred times more, it wouldn't be enough.
If he wanted to kill them, he could only kill the majority.
"One step at a time, I'll do my best!" Lin Moyu thought to himself, calculating several areas.
The Dark Void, the Four Battlefields, and the boundary area where he was currently located.
These three places had the highest concentration of Starry Sky Beasts. If he could clear out the Starry Sky Beasts in these three areas, he would have dealt with at least 80% of them.
Eighty percent should be enough.
Ten days later, the Bone Hell finally reached its limit again.
This time, with the void and reality powers perfected, the Bone Hell officially advanced.
The Bone Hell transformed from tangible to intangible, turning into a mist that spread freely through space.
Its coverage area grew larger and larger. Originally, the Bone Hell's range was already as high as 10 billion li, enough to cover a star system.
Now its range expanded again, reaching 100 billion li.
After expanding, the Bone Hell reconsolidated into form, with hellfire erupting violently.
The hell fire river boiled, continuously shooting out massive pillars of fire. The spider lilies on both banks bloomed in profusion, emitting a bewitching radiance.
The blue light of the spider lilies enveloped the Bone Hell, making it appear incredibly gloomy.
Lin Moyu felt the Bone Hell becoming increasingly real. Originally it was mostly in an illusory state, but now it was leaning towards reality.
The illusory and the real continuously fused within the Bone Hell, making it increasingly powerful.
The hell spirits bathed in the flames, constantly growing stronger in the hell fire river, quickly reaching Divine Venerable Rank 9.
Then they began to divide, one becoming two, two becoming four...
Their numbers increased from 100 million to 1 billion, with all of them at Divine Venerable Rank 9.
From this moment on, the number and combat power of the hell spirits surpassed the Undead Legion, second only to the Skeleton King.
The only drawback was that the hell spirits could not leave the Bone Hell, otherwise they could have become a second spirit army.
Lin Moyu was very satisfied with the changes in the Bone Hell, as the enhancement exceeded his expectations.
One hundred billion li could easily cover a star system. If two star systems were close enough, it could even cover both.
Unfortunately, the distances between star systems were vast, measured in light-years. This idea of his could only remain a fantasy.
What satisfied Lin Moyu most was that the Bone Hell was indeed developing in the direction of reality.
Perhaps one day in the future, the Bone Hell could evolve into a real world, becoming a true hell.
"Master, I'm back!" Lin Moyu suddenly heard the voice of the Giant Rhinoceros Beast.
Looking over, he saw the Giant Rhinoceros Beast appear billions of li away, with another Starry Sky Beast chasing behind it.
Both were moving at extremely fast speeds, crossing billions of li in the blink of an eye.
It was a Starry Sky Beast that looked like a giant crocodile, over 100,000 meters long.
However, its tail was very long, like a snake's tail, exceeding half its total length.
Its eyes flashed with a fierce light, full of killing intent, along with anger towards the Giant Rhinoceros Beast. It looked as if there was some deep grudge between them.
Then Lin Moyu saw a huge hole in the jaw of the crocodile-like Starry Sky Beast, with fresh blood flowing from it.
The shape of the hole resembled a bull's horn. Without thinking, he knew it was made by the Giant Rhinoceros Beast's horn.
Fresh blood was pouring from the hole.
"The Giant Rhinoceros Beast is quite vicious!"
Lin Moyu chuckled lightly and pointed his finger.
The Bone Hell appeared, enveloping both of them.
Under the bewitching purple light, hellfire erupted violently, engulfing the crocodile beast.
Immediately after, countless hell spirits pounced out, surrounding the crocodile beast.
Roars of anger echoed through the Bone Hell as the crocodile beast and the hell spirits fought fiercely.
Its long, thick tail swept wildly through the Bone Hell, but it was helpless against the hell spirits.
The Giant Rhinoceros Beast was not attacked. Now it had become a spectator, watching this familiar scene.
Just a short while ago, it had been surrounded like this itself.
It suddenly realized that the hell spirits had become stronger, far more powerful than before.
A hint of fear flashed in its eyes. Its new master, though seemingly only at Divine Venerable Rank 5, had combat power far exceeding the Transcendent realm.
After being surrounded by the hell spirits, the Giant Rhinoceros Beast knew the crocodile beast's fate was sealed, no matter how it struggled.
A passage appeared in the Bone Hell, and the Giant Rhinoceros Beast flew out along it, its body continuously shrinking. By the time it reached Lin Moyu, it had shrunk to its smallest size.
"Master!" It bowed respectfully before Lin Moyu.
Lin Moyu nodded and said, "Well done."
The Giant Rhinoceros Beast said, "Serving the master is what this little bull should do."
It had now resigned itself to its fate. Since it couldn't resist, it might as well obey and be a good, obedient bull.
It wasn't one of those mindless fools. It knew very well how to survive and live better.
It had even given itself a name - Little Bull.
The Bone Hell had completely surrounded the crocodile beast, while five Skeleton Kings waited outside the Bone Hell. The following battle no longer required Lin Moyu's attention.
Lin Moyu said, "Tell me everything you know about the boundary area, in as much detail as possible."
"Yes, master!" Little Bull immediately recounted everything it knew.
Through Little Bull's account, Lin Moyu finally gained a clear understanding of the situation in the boundary area.
This mysterious space, about which even the Human Emperor Network had little record, finally became clear to Lin Moyu.
