**Chapter 1597: The Source of the Imitation Spirit Array**
The golden fist collided with the silver fangs, and a massive force exploded. The already ruined Shenxia Tower shook violently but did not collapse. Lin
The materials used in the ancient battlefield's buildings were quite sturdy, though not as strong as the black material in the mysterious manor, but still very strong.
At least Lin Moyu couldn't destroy them.
The silver fangs shattered, and the black shadow retreated quickly with a piercing roar. Lin Moyu stepped forward in an instant, and his golden fist struck again.
A beam of golden light pierced through the dark starry sky, through the black shadow, and directly pinned it to the ground.
A large hole appeared in the black shadow's body, penetrating from front to back.
However, the black shadow did not stop. It ignored the wound on its body and pounced again, opening its mouth to bite.
Under the golden light, Lin Moyu saw the true face of the black shadow.
It was an evil spirit, formed by countless resentments, obsessions, and some soul fragments fused together.
Evil spirits have no intelligence or consciousness. They only have instinct.
Their sole purpose is to kill, attacking any living being they encounter.
The one hidden in the rune blade earlier was an evil spirit.
The evil spirit in front of him had clearly absorbed the souls of beasts, which is why it had evolved into a beast-like form.
Its level was not high, only at the seventh level of the True God Realm.
Lin Moyu's few punches had already shattered the evil spirit.
However, Lin Moyu also knew that evil spirits are difficult to truly eliminate.
Even if shattered, as long as the ancient battlefield remains and the obsessions and resentments persist, the evil spirit could regenerate after some time.
The runes scattered by the evil spirit had also disappeared.
Lin Moyu sighed lightly, recalling everything that had just happened, as if it were a dream.
Meng Anwen couldn't possibly appear here, but the impossible had indeed happened.
It was indescribably eerie.
The events of ancient times were already strange enough, but at least there were traces to follow, allowing one to clear their thoughts.
The events of the ancient battlefield, however, completely disrupted his thoughts, even affecting Lin Moyu's worldview.
After much contemplation, Lin Moyu felt it was still due to his insufficient strength.
Perhaps when his realm reached a certain height, these seemingly strange things would no longer seem strange.
Putting all doubts aside for now, to be pondered in the future.
Following the pitch-black cave, Lin Moyu gradually entered the interior of the ancient battlefield.
The internal structure of the ancient battlefield was somewhat peculiar, with countless passages!
No one knew what the interior of the ancient battlefield was used for. Some speculated it was an armory, others said it was for logistics, and some even said it was a resting place for warriors.
No matter the speculation, there were always unreasonable aspects.
Seeing is believing, and everyone believed what they saw, including Lin Moyu.
What others said didn't matter; what mattered was that he had to see for himself what was inside.
In the pitch-black cave, all light was lost. Lin Moyu wielded the Undying Flame and summoned the Skeleton God Warriors.
The gray light of the Undying Flame shone on the Skeleton God Warriors, turning their white bones into mirrors, reflecting more light and illuminating more areas.
The passages inside the ancient battlefield were not narrow; most areas were about five meters high and wide.
In the passages, whether on the sides, the top, or even the ground, there were numerous runes.
These runes had lost their divine power, leaving only their shapes.
The runes had lost their function.
As Lin Moyu walked, he examined the runes. Some were slightly complex, while others were quite simple.
The runes here all belonged to the big world, with no traces of the small world.
Most of the runes were familiar to Lin Moyu, as they were recorded in the "Rune Language."
Each had its own function, but some had no substantial effect.
"About sixty percent of the runes are basic runes."
"Twenty percent are advanced runes, and the remaining twenty percent are composite runes."
Lin Moyu observed carefully, and suddenly his heart moved, "Is this a rune array?"
The runes in the passage were not chaotic but arranged in a certain order.
Although many parts of the passage had been destroyed, Lin Moyu could still discern the arrangement.
The key was that he had seen this arrangement before.
In the first layer of the Four Star Domain competition, outside the Soul Fire Rune, the array that could simulate living beings used a similar arrangement.
At that time, he didn't understand runes well, so he couldn't comprehend it.
Now it was completely different. Upon careful reflection, the two indeed had many similarities.
His heart moved, and a large number of Skeleton God Warriors rushed out, searching for paths in the dark passage.
The passages were interconnected, more complex than a spider's web.
Unfortunately, many places had collapsed in the great battle, making them impassable.
Even with Lin Moyu's abilities, it was difficult to clear these damaged areas.
He could only choose the paths that were passable.
Gradually, a map formed in his mind.
The map was incomplete, with many missing parts, but it was enough.
"Indeed, it is a rune array!"
"And it is that array!"
Lin Moyu immediately realized that the human race's array was an imitation of this one.
The ancient battlefield was the source of that array.
The rune masters of the human race had forged the array based on the rune array left in the ancient battlefield.
However, due to the severe damage to the ancient battlefield, many key parts were missing, so the imitation array was not perfect.
Lin Moyu's eyes showed contemplation.
"If the array in the ancient battlefield were complete."
"It could create more powerful warriors and endow them with intelligence, making their combat power unimaginably strong."
"The imitation and incomplete array can simulate beings at the God Sovereign level. Could the complete array simulate beings at the Other Shore level?"
"If so, and the ancient battlefield was still defeated, the strength of the opponents..."
Lin Moyu was slightly tongue-tied. If his speculation was correct, the strength of the opponents had reached an unimaginable level.
Perhaps it was at the level of the owner of the severed finger outside the Divine City star region.
Lin Moyu felt that things were becoming increasingly complex. In those unrecorded years, something unknown must have happened.
What exactly happened was impossible to trace.
Lin Moyu's eyes suddenly brightened, "Right, there is the Law of Time."
"If I can master the Law of Time, could I see what happened in the past?"
"The True Vision Technique can predict the future through the Law of Fate."
"Then I should be able to view the past directly through the Law of Time."
"When I become a God Sovereign, I will choose the Law of Time as my second law."
Curiosity got the better of him, making Lin Moyu decide between the Law of Space and the Law of Time.
But for now, Lin Moyu decided to carefully record the rune array in the ancient battlefield.
The Skeleton God Warriors continued to search for paths, discovering more and more passages, each filled with numerous runes.
The rune array used the ancient battlefield as its base, directly setting up the array inside.
Such a grand scale was beyond Lin Moyu's current capabilities.
It could only be said that the mastery of runes and the control of rune arrays had reached an astonishing level.
Lin Moyu even felt that the ancestor Xu of the Other Shore Realm was not as skilled.
Unfortunately, many of the runes were severely damaged, with at least half destroyed.
Some array nodes, which should have contained materials, were now empty.
Either they were destroyed in battle or taken away after the battle.
