Chapter 1166: 1166 **Chapter 1166: Beast Skin, Astonishing Information** The manor was silent, and Lin Moyu walked alone in the quiet manor. Nothing happened until he reached the ancient castle. Standing in front of the castle, he looked up, feeling the aura of the castle. Although it couldn’t speak, much could be inferred from it. This castle was different from those found in the human world of the great world. The top was an umbrella-shaped cover extending in all directions, almost covering the entire castle. It looked somewhat like the ancient Chinese style from his previous life, a Chinese-style castle. Below it, the walls were built from special materials interwoven together. Some parts were already damaged, but the overall structure was still discernible. Lin Moyu strained his eyes to look, and the damaged parts didn’t seem to be marks left by time but rather by battles. Many of the supporting materials were broken. If the battle had been more intense, the castle might have been completely destroyed. Looking further down, the surface of the castle also bore many battle scars. One sword mark left a deep scar on the castle, almost piercing the outer wall. The gate was also split open by this sword. Lin Moyu used all his strength and punched the castle. Pain shot through his fist, but the castle remained unmoved. The power of a peak True God couldn’t shake the castle. Lin Moyu originally wanted to summon the Skeleton King to see if it could leave a mark on the castle, but he ultimately didn’t. He didn’t know what might happen if he did. In fact, he shouldn’t have punched it just now. Through the split gate, Lin Moyu entered the castle. Behind the gate was a passage about a hundred meters long, ten meters wide, and over twenty meters high. The top was triangular, with beams placed across. Some beams were also damaged, showing signs of battle. The walls were full of sword marks and axe prints. However, these were much shallower, indicating that those who fought their way into the castle were not as strong as those who fought outside. "Generals fought outside, soldiers charged inside," Lin Moyu guessed as he walked along the dark passage. The death aura here became even denser, making it somewhat eerie and terrifying, but to Lin Moyu, this aura was quite comfortable. A whistling sound came to his ears, and flames lit up ahead. Three skulls appeared in his sight. The skulls were burning with fierce flames, charging at Lin Moyu in a triangular formation with sharp cries. Lin Moyu thought of what Tang Zhen had said. After entering the safe passage, he had entered a secret chamber and encountered flaming skulls. Lin Moyu couldn’t be sure if the flaming skulls before him were the same as those Tang Zhen’s team encountered. But he didn’t take the flaming skulls before him seriously. A flash of white light, and the Skeleton God General appeared, swinging its axe at the flaming skulls. Here, Lin Moyu had already gained experience. Laws were ineffective; physical attacks were the most effective. As long as the strength was great enough, nothing was insurmountable. Under the Skeleton God Warrior’s axe, the three flaming skulls were quickly chopped to pieces. The flames scattered on the ground, still burning even as fragments. It seemed they could burn for a long time. Lin Moyu didn’t sense any law aura from the flames, only high temperatures, enough to burn a True God to death. Continuing forward, he soon reached the end of the passage. At the end, there were new paths on both the left and right sides. At the end, there was an ancient table, which seemed to have held something for a long time, leaving deep marks. On the wall hung a half-destroyed painting. Even the remaining part was severely damaged, vaguely depicting a figure. The table and the painting gave Lin Moyu an inexplicable sense of strangeness, as if they were worshipping something. After looking for a while and seeing nothing more, he stopped paying attention. His gaze turned to the two sides, both of which were passable, requiring a choice. At this moment, Lin Moyu’s pupils slightly contracted. He saw a skeleton about ten meters away on the left side, leaning against the wall, dead for an unknown number of years. Since entering the manor, he had seen many skeletons and should have been used to it. But this skeleton was different. Firstly, it was very old. Secondly, it was humanoid. Its limbs were intact, and except for the missing head, it was no different from a human skeleton. This discovery made Lin Moyu suspicious. "Is this a person from the castle or an invader?" It was impossible to determine just from the skeleton. However, Lin Moyu had a method. A flame ignited, and Lin Moyu flicked his finger, releasing the Undying Flame. **Stellar-level Spell: Resurrection of the Dead.** The flame fell on the skeleton, but instead of regenerating flesh, the skeleton turned to ash. "What’s going on?" Lin Moyu was stunned. The Resurrection of the Dead had failed. This was the first time he had encountered such a situation, leaving him momentarily puzzled. "Is it because of the chaotic laws? Or is there another reason?" The skeleton turned to ash, and the Undying Flame gradually extinguished. Lin Moyu’s sharp eyes noticed something in the ashes. With a wave of his hand, a gust of wind blew away the ashes, revealing an object beneath. It was a piece of beast skin, originally pressed under the skeleton, now revealed after the skeleton turned to ash. The beast skin had endured countless years without deteriorating, indicating its extraordinary nature. Although the beast skin was intact, the writing on it had faded, with some parts completely gone. When Lin Moyu saw the writing, his pupils contracted again. "Ancient Chinese..." He recognized the characters, similar to those he had seen when he first obtained the [Primordial Rune], all in ancient Chinese. Why would ancient Chinese appear here? He didn’t dwell on the question, focusing instead on deciphering the text. The writing was fragmented and chaotic, but Lin Moyu felt a sense of alarm. "We... finally broke in." "So many skeletons, too many..." "He’s too strong, the marshal is dead..." "The ruler is also at a disadvantage..." "I saw the ruler making a sacrifice..." "Great World Rune..." "This is impossible... How can he be so strong?" The decipherable information was limited, and Lin Moyu struggled to piece together these fragments. He wasn’t even sure if the sequence of the words was correct, as sometimes swapping two characters could change the meaning entirely. From the remaining text, Lin Moyu roughly pieced together some events. The owner of the beast skin was an invader who fought an unimaginable battle with the manor’s owner. The manor’s owner could control skeletons and was incredibly powerful. Their marshal died in battle, and even their stronger ruler was at a disadvantage. However, it seemed they eventually won. At least now, the manor’s owner had disappeared, and the manor was in a state of abandonment. "Ruler, is it a title, a realm, or a specific person?" "Great World Rune... Is it the Great World Rune?" "What happened to the Great World Rune?" "No, this isn’t right!" Lin Moyu’s eyes suddenly sparkled with realization, followed by a look of disbelief. "Regardless of what happened to the Great World Rune, it shouldn’t be visible under normal circumstances." "According to the text, did the Great World Rune become visible?" "How is that possible!"
