**Chapter 2320: Unwilling to Give Up Without a Fight**

Lin Moyu took the box wrapped in the Fire of World Destruction with his hand. Needless to say, only the mysterious master could have sealed the box with the Fire of World Destruction.

The box was enveloped in the Fire of World Destruction, making it more secure than ancient talismans. Unless someone possessed the Fire of World Destruction like Lin Moyu, even a Heavenly Sovereign would find it extremely difficult to open.

Lin Moyu asked, "Is there anything else besides this box?"

You Jiu shook his head, "Apart from the box, our existence is solely to prevent the Sea of Realms from damaging the Great World. Beyond that, there is nothing else."

Lin Moyu said, "In a thousand years, a world named the Battle Realm will collide with the Great World."

Lin Moyu briefly explained the situation of the Battle Realm, emphasizing that there might be peak Supremes within it.

You Jiu responded without hesitation, "That has nothing to do with us. Our master did not command us to fight the Battle Realm."

There was no room for negotiation; the Ghost Clan only followed their master's orders. They were indifferent to the fate of the Great World.

To Lin Moyu, they seemed more like puppets, emotionless and devoid of self-will. They would do whatever their master commanded.

They had been carrying out a mission for millions of years without stopping. But Lin Moyu couldn't persuade them to return and help the Great World against the Battle Realm.

You Jiu asked in a deep voice, "Do you have any other matters?"

Lin Moyu shook his head. His primary reason for seeking out the Ghost Clan was to enlist their help in a thousand years. There was nothing else.

As for probing the secrets of the Ghost Clan, Lin Moyu had no such intentions.

Since they refused to help, Lin Moyu couldn't force them.

You Jiu said, "Very well, you may leave."

The Ghost Clan clearly did not welcome outsiders. They only obeyed the Soul Heavenly Sovereign's commands and were indifferent to other matters.

Lin Moyu bowed to You Jiu, then turned and disappeared into the starry sky.

The battle involving the Skeleton Kings had long ended. The Skeleton Kings had slaughtered the group of strange fish.

Knowing the true strength of the Ghost Clan, Lin Moyu realized that the strange fish were no match for them.

You Jiu had not intervened, possibly to train his clan members or for deeper reasons.

Opening the Space Gate, Lin Moyu left, traveling 100,000 light-years away, completely bidding farewell to the Ghost Clan.

Holding the ancient box, the Fire of World Destruction illuminated the surrounding void, forming a small circle of light.

"Although the Ghost Clan refused to help, obtaining the box left by the mysterious master is an unexpected gain."

"How many contingencies did he leave behind? One after another, they all seem related to him. How many more plans are there?"

Indeed, there was a significant gap.

With many questions in his heart, Lin Moyu pondered the mysterious master, who was enigmatic even to the Heavenly Sovereigns, let alone now. The Fire of World Destruction continued to boil as Lin Moyu prepared to open the ancient box.

A box sealed with the Fire of World Destruction was more precious than one sealed with ancient talismans.

The last time he obtained a similar box was in the Water and Fire Realm, which he handed over to the Water and Fire Ancestor for safekeeping.

It contained the seed of the Undying Flame, also known as the Source Flame.

This time, it was in the outer domain, guarded by the Ghost Clan. He had no idea what it contained.

With anticipation, Lin Moyu used the Fire of World Destruction to refine the box.

The Fire of World Destruction on the box was gradually absorbed by Lin Moyu's own Fire of World Destruction. With a snap, the box opened, and a powerful aura burst forth.

"Supreme!"

The aura startled Lin Moyu. How could there be a Supreme's aura in the box?

The box emitted a radiant glow, and within the glow appeared a figure shrouded in flames.

"The mysterious master!"

Unexpectedly, the mysterious master had left an imprint here.

Unlike ordinary Heavenly Sovereigns, the mysterious master had more advanced methods. He didn't need to leave behind a soul; an imprint alone was enough to communicate with Lin Moyu.

A voice emerged from the flames, "I know you have many questions. I will answer them one by one. Ask whatever you wish."

Lin Moyu asked, "What is the Ghost Clan's mission?"

The mysterious master replied, "The Ghost Clan has two missions. First, to prevent the Sea of Realms from eroding the Great World. However, they can't completely stop it, only delay it. Without them, the Great World wouldn't have lasted until now."

"The second mission is to safeguard this box and deliver it to you."

With the mysterious master's explanation, Lin Moyu finally understood the cause and effect.

After the Black Blood Great World launched the Black Blood Frenzy, the Great World's origin was damaged. The mysterious master had already anticipated that the Heavenly Sovereigns would leave.

Once the Heavenly Sovereigns left, they would take more of the Great World's origin, worsening its injuries.

At that time, the Great World would lose control over its peripheral areas, and the Sea of Realms would impact these regions.

Creatures from the Sea of Realms would invade the Great World. If this situation became too severe, it would further harm the Great World.

If it couldn't be stopped, the Great World wouldn't survive for another two million years.

The reason for choosing the Ghost Clan was their unique nature.

When the Soul Heavenly Sovereign created the Ghost Clan, he used materials not from the Great World but from the Sea of Realms, making them very special.

They had the ability to hibernate, during which their lifespan slowed significantly. Additionally, the strange fish from the Sea of Realms could enhance their realm and stabilize their strength.

This allowed the Ghost Clan to produce more powerful members, and during hibernation, time passed even more slowly.

Because of this, the mysterious master had the Soul Heavenly Sovereign place the Ghost Clan in the outer domain.

Originally, the Soul Heavenly Sovereign intended to take the Ghost Clan with him, but due to the mysterious master, he had to comply.

After hearing the mysterious master's explanation, Lin Moyu realized that although his guesses were slightly off, they were largely accurate.

Lin Moyu continued to ask, "The Celestial Spirit Clan and the Ghost Clan were both created by the Soul Heavenly Sovereign. What about the Demon God Clan?"

The mysterious master replied, "The Demon God Clan perished long ago. To the Soul Heavenly Sovereign, the Demon God Clan was a failed creation. Although they were powerful, their lifespan was too short."

"The Celestial Spirit Clan was better than the Demon God Clan, at least without the lifespan issue, but their combat power was insufficient. However, the Soul Heavenly Sovereign seemed to value the Celestial Spirit Clan highly."

"The Ghost Clan can be considered the Soul Heavenly Sovereign's most perfect creation, with strong combat power, a lifespan comparable to ours, and the ability to hibernate. They played a significant role back then."

"In addition, there is the Fish Clan, created by the Space Heavenly Sovereign. However, the Space Heavenly Sovereign was not skilled at creating beings, so the Fish Clan had many flaws."

"Nevertheless, they possessed spatial laws and played a role back then."

Lin Moyu asked, "What about Mu Nan'er?"

The mysterious master replied, "She was left behind by me. Unfortunately, there is only one Soul City. If there were more, today's crisis could have been avoided."

"Do you truly believe the Great World can be saved?"

"The Great Path always holds a glimmer of hope. No matter how desperate the situation, there is always hope. I don't know if the Great World can ultimately be saved, but I can only say this: without trying, I will never be content."
