Chapter 2108: Can, and Cannot
All the races began to guard against the Ghost Race, continuously strengthening their defenses.
The Demon Race started setting up barriers. Apart from the human race's grand array, the Demon Race's barrier was considered one of the most perfect defenses.
The Cold Water Tribe had previously been protected by a barrier, but unfortunately, they were still silently wiped out by the 'Ghost Race.'
All the races were in a state of panic, and the newly formed Hundred Races Alliance began to waver.
To stabilize the alliance, the Demon Race began to strengthen the barriers for all the races.
At the same time, the Demon Race also requested all the races to search for ancient records, trying to find as much information related to the Ghost Race as possible.
A hundred thousand years ago, the various races had seized many things from the human race, including some ancient records.
As long as they searched carefully, they might discover some clues.
Although the Demon Race had made promises, the Hundred Races Alliance's attacks on the human race still became disorganized and uncontrollable.
The races had no heart for a great war and temporarily sought only to protect themselves.
Lin Moyu sat in the warship, meditating with his eyes closed.
The aura of enlightenment had long dissipated. This time, the enlightenment lasted for two days, twice as long as before.
The rewards from the Great World rune were more than before, and Lin Moyu also gained more benefits.
The control over the Time Law and Space Law both increased from 20% to 22%.
Although it seemed like a small improvement, Lin Moyu knew how difficult it was to cultivate these two laws.
Especially the Time Law, which was even more challenging than the Space Law.
Most of the enlightenment time was spent on the Time Law, with a small portion on the Space Law.
Lin Moyu aimed to advance both laws simultaneously and always maintain their fusion state.
Each law increased by 2%, which would have taken decades without the state of enlightenment.
Now, it only took two days, which was extremely fast.
After the enlightenment ended, Lin Moyu began to fuse the two laws.
With the previous foundation, the fusion of the laws was completed smoothly.
The power of time and space flowed through his body, causing Lin Moyu's perception of time to fluctuate, sometimes fast, sometimes slow, constantly changing.
From the outside, Lin Moyu seemed to have a feeling of separating from this world.
When the power of time and space was pushed to the extreme, Lin Moyu seemed to not exist in this world.
As the initiator, Lin Moyu also vaguely had this feeling.
For a moment, he seemed to be observing this world from another perspective.
This feeling was very mysterious, as if he stood at the highest point of the world, able to see many things that were previously impossible to see.
However, this feeling only lasted for a moment, not even 0.01 seconds.
If Lin Moyu's soul were not sensitive enough, he wouldn't have felt it at all.
After completing the fusion of the laws, Lin Moyu stopped cultivating. He felt his own body and muttered to himself, "My idea was correct. Helping the Great World rune sever karmic ties can indeed earn the Great World rune's rewards, allowing me to enter the state of enlightenment."
"With the help of the enlightenment state, I can cultivate at the fastest speed, but this method also has its drawbacks."
"If I enter enlightenment multiple times, it seems to reduce the effectiveness of the enlightenment."
"After entering enlightenment, a trace of the enlightenment aura will remain on my body, which will affect the next enlightenment."
"The enlightenment aura dissipates very slowly and requires time."
"But for now, I should be able to enter enlightenment one more time, and then I need to rest for a while."
"I should return to the human star region first and inform the Saint Venerables about this, so they can be prepared."
Lin Moyu controlled the warship, flying towards the human star region.
At this moment, the various races had already started a war with the human race. Many routes to the human star region were blocked, making it impossible to pass through even deep space.
Lin Moyu searched all the way and finally found an unblocked route through the perception of the Space Law.
He flew through the dark void between the Azure Dragon Star Region and the Vermilion Bird Star Region. The only drawback was that the dark void was affected by the power of the Black Blood Great Realm, making the entire space relatively chaotic.
The dark void was filled with countless star beasts and was also invaded by the power of the Black Blood Great Realm. Occasionally, there would be space rifts and space turbulence in deep space.
Except for beings like the Killing Saint Venerable who thrived in such environments, most people disliked the dark void.
Lin Moyu didn't want to alarm the various races for now, nor did he want them to know he was outside, so he chose a more difficult path.
Unknowingly, Lin Moyu and several Saint Venerables reached a rare consensus, forming a tacit understanding.
The various races turned their homes upside down, searching through the materials they had seized from the human race, and finally found some hidden records.
The records confirmed the existence of the Ghost Race, and what shocked them the most was that the Ghost Race was created by an ancient Heavenly Venerable.
That Heavenly Venerable was extremely mysterious, creating the Ghost Race and then leaving them, disappearing without a trace.
The records were incomplete, only revealing that the Ghost Race had incredibly terrifying combat power, capable of killing people invisibly.
Wherever they passed, not a blade of grass grew, which indeed matched the experiences of the Green Crane and Cold Water Tribes.
Besides this, what shocked them the most was that a Heavenly Venerable could create a race.
The Saint Venerables and Other Shore beings of the various races gathered again, and someone asked, "Abyss Demon Venerable, do you know if a Heavenly Venerable can create a race?"
Among the various races, the Demon Race had a long history and had once produced a Heavenly Venerable.
Few races had produced Heavenly Venerables, and those that did were later exterminated by the human race.
Very few races that had produced Heavenly Venerables survived to the present day.
The Demon Race was one, and it seemed the Golden Eagle Race might have had one too, but it was not confirmed.
Abyss Demon Venerable said, "Although our race produced a Heavenly Venerable in ancient times, that ancestor died in battle shortly after becoming a Heavenly Venerable."
His words disappointed many.
Abyss Demon Venerable continued, "However, the ancestor left a few words, saying that not all Heavenly Venerables are the same. It cannot be denied that the human race's Heavenly Venerables were very strong."
"At that time, we were lucky to produce a Heavenly Venerable, but we were far inferior to the human race's Heavenly Venerables."
"As for whether Heavenly Venerables can create races, we are not sure."
Black Gold Saint Venerable of the Golden Eagle Race said, "Indeed, our ancestor also said that the human race's Heavenly Venerables were very powerful. If it weren't for the Black Blood Great Realm restraining the human race's Heavenly Venerables at that time, we would have been exterminated long ago."
Everyone was speechless, not knowing what to do.
Someone worriedly said, "The ancient human race's Heavenly Venerables were so powerful, and the race they created must be equally terrifying. How should we deal with this?"
Abyss Demon Venerable sneered, "There's no need to worry too much. Although the Ghost Race was created by a human Heavenly Venerable, that Heavenly Venerable is long gone, and the Ghost Race is completely out of the human race's control."
"Otherwise, why didn't the human race deploy the Ghost Race a hundred thousand years ago? If the Ghost Race were truly that terrifying, would the human race have ended up in such a state back then?"
"The appearance of the Ghost Race this time is just an accident. Maybe next time, they'll go to the human race's territory. We don't need to worry."
His words slightly reassured the strong members of the various races.
In the ancestral land of the Bull Demon Tribe, the aura on the thousand-meter-tall Bull Demon statue was steadily and slowly growing stronger.
The statue emitted a faint light. Blood Bull Saint Venerable once again came before the statue and respectfully asked, "My lord, can a Heavenly Venerable really create a race?"
After a moment, a voice came from the statue, "Can, and cannot!"
