 Chapter 2068: How Do You Have His Flame?

Lin Moyu looked at the entrance and felt that the tenth round of the high-tier difficulty secret realm would be different.

But he couldn't back out now; he had to move forward.

He put away the Wood God Flower and stepped in boldly.

The scene before him dimmed, and he felt as if he were in the starry sky.

Amidst the mist, starlight continuously shone, but he couldn't sense any starlight laws within it.

Lin Moyu, stepping on the star river of the starlight law, was most sensitive to the starlight law.

These starlights were not ordinary starlights but artificially created illusions.

He was still within the secret realm, where everything was evolved from ancient runes.

Lin Moyu was not in a hurry; he chose to wait and see.

The mist gradually receded, and the scene before him became clearer.

He had indeed entered a starry sky, a false starry sky evolved from ancient runes.

"Congratulations, my successor!"

A familiar voice came from the Holy Talisman Heavenly Lord.

Lin Moyu looked ahead and saw hundreds of starlights simultaneously light up in the starry sky, forming a rune.

The rune reflected a throne, and the Holy Talisman Heavenly Lord was leisurely sitting on the throne.

This time, Lin Moyu felt a trace of a soul; the Holy Talisman Heavenly Lord had left a wisp of his soul here again.

This wisp of soul was clearly more powerful and had its own will, stronger than the one in the Mysterious Star Secret Realm.

Lin Moyu bowed to the Holy Talisman Heavenly Lord, "Junior greets the Heavenly Lord."

The Holy Talisman Heavenly Lord chuckled, "Not bad, young one, very polite."

"Congratulations on passing the previous tests. You are even more outstanding than I imagined."

"At the mere second tier of the God Sovereign level, you possess combat power comparable to a peak God Sovereign. Even in my era, such individuals were rare."

"I am very curious about you. Do not resist; let me take a look!"

In the starry sky, starlight shone brilliantly, and countless rays of light shot from all directions, illuminating Lin Moyu.

Lin Moyu's heart tightened. He wanted to refuse but found he couldn't.

The Holy Talisman Heavenly Lord didn't give him a choice; Lin Moyu could only accept.

Anger surged within him. Lin Moyu felt the Holy Talisman Heavenly Lord had gone too far.

Even if you are a Heavenly Lord, you cannot invade my privacy without my permission.

This Holy Talisman Heavenly Lord was different from the one in the Mysterious Star Secret Realm. He wasn't as irritable or arrogant, but Lin Moyu felt even worse about him.

Vaguely, Lin Moyu began to dislike the Holy Talisman Heavenly Lord, feeling that this guy wasn't a good person.

The Holy Talisman Heavenly Lord's soul invaded Lin Moyu's soul world, trying to peer into his soul.

In the soul world, the World Burning Fire Seed suddenly erupted, and a sharp scream came from the Holy Talisman Heavenly Lord's mouth.

Thick flames suddenly rose from the Holy Talisman Heavenly Lord, and the Undying Flame instantly engulfed his soul.

In the Undying Flame, the Holy Talisman Heavenly Lord screamed continuously.

Lin Moyu could feel that the Holy Talisman Heavenly Lord's soul was severely injured, being burned by the Undying Flame.

This time, the Undying Flame was different from when Lin Moyu activated it himself; it contained the power of the World Burning Fire Seed.

This power could burn even the world, incredibly terrifying.

However, it was still just a fire seed, not strong enough.

If it were strong enough, it could instantly burn the Holy Talisman Heavenly Lord's remnant soul to ashes.

No matter how weak the Holy Talisman Heavenly Lord's remnant soul was, it was still a remnant soul of a Heavenly Lord.

A Heavenly Lord's remnant soul had the power to suppress a Saint Sovereign, undeniably strong.

But it couldn't withstand the World Burning Fire.

Lin Moyu became more interested in the World Burning Fire Seed, wondering if it could burn a real Heavenly Lord if it were strong enough.

"Perhaps it really can," Lin Moyu thought, full of anticipation.

Watching the Holy Talisman Heavenly Lord scream continuously, Lin Moyu felt no sympathy.

He completely deserved it; it served him right!

After a while, the flames on the Holy Talisman Heavenly Lord finally subsided. He looked at Lin Moyu with lingering fear and trembled, "How do you have his flame?"

His flame?

Lin Moyu thought of the mysterious master, more terrifying than a Heavenly Lord.

From the Holy Talisman Heavenly Lord's words, it wasn't hard to deduce that the World Burning Fire belonged to that mysterious master.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have said such a thing.

The World Burning Fire might be a symbol, carrying a meaning beyond the flame itself.

Lin Moyu didn't answer but quietly watched the Holy Talisman Heavenly Lord.

After being burned, the Holy Talisman Heavenly Lord's remnant soul was at least half as weak and had begun to dissipate uncontrollably.

Lin Moyu saw a trace of fear in his eyes, along with a hint of resentment.

"No, this remnant soul has developed self-awareness!"

Lin Moyu thought of a troubling possibility.

The remnant soul had been preserved from ancient times until now. To ensure it didn't dissipate, the Holy Talisman Heavenly Lord must have used some methods to nourish and preserve it.

Moreover, this remnant soul was clearly more abundant and powerful, developing self-awareness wasn't impossible.

With this realization, Lin Moyu understood why the final round of the secret realm had changed. It shouldn't have changed; he should have experienced the tenth round as before, then fused the Wood God Flower to receive the inheritance.

But because this remnant soul had developed self-awareness, it didn't want to follow the Holy Talisman Heavenly Lord's set path; it wanted its own way.

Combining this with its previous actions, Lin Moyu finally understood.

Lin Moyu's gaze turned cold, "You don't want to peer into my secrets; you want to possess me."

The remnant soul's expression changed, showing a hint of confusion, "What are you talking about? How could I, a Heavenly Lord, possess you?"

"You entered here, passed the tests, gained my recognition, received the inheritance, and became my successor."

"From now on, you are my disciple. How could I possess you?"

Watching his clumsy performance, Lin Moyu sneered, "Your acting is too poor. You call yourself a Heavenly Lord, yet you dare not admit your actions. Do you deserve to be called a Heavenly Lord?"

"How dare you speak so disrespectfully!" the remnant soul roared angrily.

Lin Moyu waved his hand dismissively, "Forget it. I don't want this inheritance. Let me leave, and I'll pretend this never happened."

The remnant soul roared, "You have no choice but to take this inheritance!"

He finally stopped pretending, his eyes filled with ferocity and murderous intent.

The entire starry sky trembled, and endless power surged from all directions, as if to crush Lin Moyu completely.

Lin Moyu remained unafraid, calmly watching him. He had long guessed this outcome.

No matter how strong the remnant soul was, it was still just a remnant soul, striving to become a living being.

Having waited so long for someone like him, how could it let him go?

Lin Moyu said, "You should know that possessing me won't succeed."

The remnant soul sneered, "Although you have his flame, you are not him. As long as I kill you, his flame will naturally disappear."

Lin Moyu shrugged helplessly, "In that case, we have nothing to discuss. If you want to kill me, go ahead and try!"

As he spoke, countless undead legions appeared in the starry sky.

Billions of Skeleton Generals flew out, attacking the stars in the sky.

The numerous stars here were the source of the remnant soul's power and could form various runes.

To deal with the remnant soul, the stars had to be destroyed first.

The stars quickly lit up, and countless starlights intertwined into numerous runes. The runes transformed into flames or thunder, overwhelming the undead legions.
