Chapter 1377: Mistaken, Not a Jokester but a Fool
It turned out to be the tomb of the Legion Commander. Lin Moyu recalled the images he had seen repeatedly of that general's heroic spirit in the ancient scenes.
That general sacrificed himself, leading his brothers back, leaving a glimmer of hope for the future.
That general even unleashed the undying flames, casting curses to kill countless pursuers, leaving them in a state worse than death, unable to escape for eternity.
The heroic spirit of that general left an indelible impression on Lin Moyu's heart. Since each squad had a tomb with a tombstone, it was only natural that the Legion Commander would have his own tombstone.
Upon seeing the words on the tombstone, Lin Moyu knew what he should do.
At this moment, Xu Qingyang sighed, "Such a huge stele, yet it only has a few words written on it. What is its purpose?"
Huh?
Lin Moyu was slightly taken aback. It was then that he realized Xu Qingyang couldn't recognize the inscription on the stele.
No wonder he had been calling it a stele all along - he couldn't recognize the inscription, nor had he colored it, so he didn't know it was actually a tombstone.
The characters on the tombstone were called the Primordial Ancient Script by that mysterious person, different from the characters used by humans.
Without specifically studying the Primordial Ancient Script, one could at most recognize a few scattered words.
Just like how Xu Qingyang could recognize the character "yi" in "You Yi", but not the other characters.
Lin Moyu didn't bother explaining and flew straight towards the tombstone.
Under Xu Qingyang's puzzled gaze, Lin Moyu activated the tombstone.
The tombstone trembled violently, and black-red fresh blood gushed out from beneath it.
In an instant, the ape-like monsters that had been silent suddenly raised their heads, their powerful and ferocious auras rising.
The tombstone hummed, unleashing a powerful force that pushed away all the nearby ape-like monsters, preventing them from approaching!
More and more black-red blood gushed out from underground, and Lin Moyu immediately absorbed a large amount of the blood, using his fingers as a pen to color the inscriptions on the tombstone.
Xu Qingyang was utterly astonished, "Lin Shidi, what are you doing?"
Lin Moyu said, "Activating this stele."
Xu Qingyang asked in amazement, "Will this allow us to find the way out?"
"Perhaps."
"Lin Shidi, how did you come up with this idea? You're truly brilliant."
Xu Qingyang's flattery came thick and fast.
Lin Moyu suddenly realized that this guy wasn't just talkative but a complete jokester.
Without further ado, Lin Moyu continued coloring the characters.
These characters were too large, and coloring them took quite some time.
During this period, the ape-like monsters that had been pushed away went berserk, rushing over.
However, without exception, they were all pushed back by an irresistible force, unable to get close.
Xu Qingyang found it a bit strange, "These fellows seem to be in quite a hurry."
Lin Moyu was fully focused and had no time to entertain Xu Qingyang.
Xu Qingyang carried on his soliloquy, "Why are they in such a hurry for no apparent reason?"
"What did this huge stele do to make them act like this?"
"They were motionless just a moment ago, how strange."
The black-red blood kept being absorbed and applied to the inscriptions.
Each time an inscription was colored, the tombstone would tremble violently, and the ape-like monsters would become even more frenzied and anxious.
Xu Qingyang's tone changed, "These fellows are becoming even more frantic. Lin Shidi, what have you done?"
"I sense an overwhelming consciousness reviving."
"Such a terrifying force, what level of expert is this?"
Xu Qingyang could sense it, and so could Lin Moyu.
Lin Moyu felt that as he continued coloring the characters, a powerful consciousness was indeed reviving within the tombstone.
It was the consciousness of the Legion Commander You Yi's heroic spirit.
But now, Lin Moyu couldn't stop. If he did, he might become an enemy of the entire Nether Swamp.
Once he lost the ability to fly, forget the Nether Swamp, even those ape-like monsters on the ground would tear him to shreds.
Lin Moyu could only continue coloring, going all the way.
The ape-like monsters finally noticed Lin Moyu and swung their battle knives, sending terrifying attacks towards him.
Xu Qingyang let out a strange cry, "Be careful!"
Lin Moyu remained motionless, unable to dodge at the moment, and could only endure.
As the attacks closed in, a red light suddenly shot out from the tombstone, enveloping Lin Moyu.
The ape-like monsters' attacks landed on Lin Moyu but had no effect, like a drop in the ocean, not causing the slightest ripple.
Xu Qingyang finally breathed a sigh of relief, "Phew, you almost scared me to death."
The ape-like monsters continued their incessant attacks, but to no avail, as all their attacks were blocked by a thin layer of red light.
Xu Qingyang laughed heartily, "Come on, keep coming!"
"I'm right here, come and attack me. If I dodge even once, I lose."
Xu Qingyang's shouts were boisterous, as if venting the frustration of being chased for a thousand years.
"Mistaken, not only a jokester but a fool!" Lin Moyu muttered inwardly with some resignation, only able to let him be.
One by one, the inscriptions were colored, emitting a dazzling black-red light that was somewhat glaring.
The great consciousness within the tombstone grew clearer and more powerful.
The undying flames in the sky seemed to grow dimmer, burning even more fiercely.
When Lin Moyu finished coloring the last character with the final stroke, the entire tombstone suddenly erupted with a brilliant red light, a pillar of light shooting out, instantly dyeing the entire Nether Swamp red.
The Nether Swamp was completely immersed in a world of red, even the gray light of the undying flames replaced by the red radiance at this moment.
Then, a terrifying and immense force descended from the sky, as if a giant hand was pressing down on the entire Nether Swamp.
Xu Qingyang, who had been speaking just a second ago, suddenly lost consciousness, his eyes rolling back.
The ape-like monsters on the ground collectively collapsed, losing all movement.
The Xiao Ming Buddha, Black Sand God King, and Erosion God King in the distance simultaneously looked towards the sky.
Accompanied by the awakening of that great consciousness, they too fell into a coma, just like Xu Qingyang.
In an instant, the entire Nether Swamp fell silent, with only Lin Moyu remaining lucid.
A grand and magnificent ancient scene unfolded before Lin Moyu's eyes, with the entire Nether Swamp as the backdrop.
From this moment on, Lin Moyu's consciousness also changed, as if he had become the blazing undying flames in the sky, looking down upon the Nether Swamp, with everything within his sight.
Lin Moyu experienced the scene firsthand, as if personally witnessing that grand war.
In the scene, the sky over the Nether Swamp was torn open by a massive rift, and an ape forced its way in.
A hundred tombstones simultaneously unleashed their power, forming a blood-red great blade that severed the ape's head in an instant.
Previously, Lin Moyu could only marvel at the strength of this blade, capable of instantly killing such a powerful being.
But now, from this perspective, he truly saw that this single strike had exhausted all their strength.
For this one strike, the last glimmer of hope for the hundred squads was nearly extinguished.
Fortunately, after the ape died, its fresh blood became new nourishment, providing sustenance for the hundred squad tombs.
However, the hundred squads could no longer unleash a second strike.
Countless ape-like monsters then charged in.
The Legion Commander named You Yi, relying on his heroic spirit, cast a curse to kill all the invaders!
"I curse you, your flesh and blood will become nourishment, and you will remain here forever, neither living nor dead!"
"Forever!"
"I curse you, forever!"
The Legion Commander's voice echoed throughout the Nether Swamp.
The undying flames in the sky trembled violently, like a star without heat.
As they trembled, an invisible, intangible force of death radiated from the entire Nether Swamp.
The apes that had charged into the Nether Swamp rapidly lost their life force, dying within two seconds.
They died silently, without any resistance.
The undying flames in the sky were incredibly powerful, killing without a trace.
The images paused again, quickly becoming blurry and then disappearing.
The entire battle lasted less than a minute, leaving Lin Moyu's heart pounding.
Compared to such a war, the battles he had experienced were nothing.
Such powerful beings died so easily. Even minor deities were mere cannon fodder in such a war.
The apes that had charged into the Nether Swamp were cursed, their life force dissipating instantly.
Lin Moyu suppressed his inner turmoil. The battle wasn't over yet; it was still ongoing.
He needed to continue searching for swamps and tombstones.
He carefully examined the base of the tombstone, looking for anything unusual.
As the black and red blood receded, a faint blue light emerged.
"There really is something."
