Chapter 1263: 1263 **Chapter 1263: Secrets from Ancient Times** Lin Moyu felt strands of the power of faith, traversing the mysterious void, following ancient and mysterious rules, descending upon him. This wave of the power of faith was much more than what he had received before. Even being first on the potential list hadn’t garnered him this much power of faith, but this one sword strike did. The saying "seeing is believing" holds true. Lin Moyu believed that the news of him instantly killing Bai Tianzong with one sword must have spread, and more people would likely come to watch. Whether they could make it in time was another matter. Indeed, the news spread at an astonishing speed, faster than the speed of light. Many people flocked to the arena, eager to watch the battle. They didn’t necessarily want to see a hundred rounds of life-and-death struggle; sometimes, a stunning sword strike was more captivating. Han Wu was mentally prepared. After seeing Lin Moyu’s true realm, he didn’t show as exaggerated an expression as Bai Tianzong. But he couldn’t help but be shocked. Lin Moyu was indeed at the seventh stage of True God. Could he, a genius, compare to such a person? 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂 Although they were both geniuses, the gap between geniuses could be unimaginably large. "This guy must be from the Divine City." "No, I’ve seen people from the Divine City, and they weren’t this monstrous." "When I get into the Divine City, I must ask how many monsters are in there." Amid Han Wu’s chaotic thoughts, the battle began. He instinctively unfolded his law domain, and a yellowish light surged around him. Within the yellowish light, there was a sharp glint, with faint golden flashes. The light gradually turned golden. He excelled in the laws of earth and metal elements. Both laws were third-tier laws, not very powerful. He should have chosen one law to comprehend and become an ordinary cultivator. But he refused to give up and forcibly fused the two laws together. The laws underwent a qualitative change, becoming the Golden Stone Law. It had the sharpness of the metal law and the defense of the stone law. The Golden Stone Law was a second-tier law, and among second-tier laws, it was relatively powerful, being both offensive and defensive. With this, Han Wu made it onto the combat power list and became a genius. The law domain contracted, forming a golden armor on his body. At the same time, a giant golden sword appeared in his hand. Han Wu looked like an ancient war god reborn, clad in armor, exuding an extraordinary aura. Then, above Lin Moyu’s head, a burning skeleton throne appeared, just like before. The Skeleton King rose from the throne and swung a sword at him. Han Wu’s face changed dramatically, and he instinctively raised his sword to block. This was his instinct, but he didn’t know that the God-Slaying Sword was unblockable. He could only rely on his defense to take the hit. He watched as his golden armor shattered under the sword light. Along with the armor, his body also shattered. His consciousness shifted, and when he opened his eyes again, he was back in the small room. Another instant kill, no surprises. The thousand-meter-tall Skeleton King instantly killed him, just like Bai Tianzong. The crowd outside erupted again. Another instant kill, without any suspense. "What kind of skeleton is this? It’s too strong." "Is Lin Moyu going to use this move from start to finish?" "Is one move not enough? A single move can dominate. No matter how many spells you have, if they’re not strong enough, they’re useless." The battles in the arena continued, and in a distant place, a shadow appeared in front of area 7-77. The shadow’s appearance was unclear, like a black hole absorbing all light. He stood there, unnoticed by anyone. If Lin Moyu were present, he would recognize this black-clad figure as the same powerful being he had seen in the black hole. Zhu Qiwu appeared beside the black-clad figure and whispered, "Are you really going?" The black-clad figure’s voice was equally low, "Aren’t you curious?" Zhu Qiwu honestly replied, "Curious." The black-clad figure’s voice was emotionless, "Curiosity is normal. Who wouldn’t be curious about ancient secrets?" "Since you want to go, let’s go together." With a wave of his hand, the space around them changed. In the next second, they were in area 7-77, standing in front of the central black hole. The level restrictions of area 7-77 were meaningless to the black-clad figure. Zhu Qiwu was enveloped by an invisible force from the black-clad figure, allowing him to enter this otherwise inaccessible area. The darkness of the black hole was also meaningless to the black-clad figure. He went straight to the large pit in the black hole and stared at it. The chaotic light in the pit flowed, forming an indescribably beautiful scene. Zhu Qiwu sensed a battle intent rising from the black-clad figure. He quickly asked, "Are you going to make a move?" The black-clad figure slowly shook his head, "I can’t make a move, but I think we can talk to him." As he finished speaking, an impatient voice came from the pit, "Get lost!" The flowing light in the pit stopped, and in the next second, countless streams of light erupted like a volcano, shooting outwards. The immense power accompanied the eruption of the light. Each stream of light was as sharp as a sword, incredibly terrifying. The black-clad figure casually waved his hand, blocking the light, "You guys are really hard to talk to." "Get lost!" Another angry roar, and the light erupted even more fiercely. The pit gradually closed and eventually disappeared. The black-clad figure sighed, "These guys, none of them are normal." Zhu Qiwu remained silent. Such beings were beyond his ability to comment on. The black-clad figure continued, "Let’s go. Hopefully, next time we can find someone more reasonable, at least someone we can talk to." "Maybe we can have that kid keep looking. There are many old guys hiding in the battlefield; there’s bound to be one we can talk to." Zhu Qiwu understood the black-clad figure’s meaning. The "kid" he mentioned was naturally Lin Moyu. The black-clad figure couldn’t move freely in the battlefield; he couldn’t do whatever he wanted. Some things he couldn’t do himself, so he had to rely on others. Zhu Qiwu said, "That kid almost died this time. Fortunately, he was smart enough to buy time to use the teleportation jade token to escape." "But you know, there are many places where the teleportation jade token is useless." The black-clad figure hummed in agreement. The colorful light from the black hole gathered in his hand, eventually forming a beautiful hexagonal gem. The gem was dazzling and beautiful, with a black airflow in the center, like a black hole. "Give this to him. If he’s in danger, let him crush it, and I’ll ensure his safety." Zhu Qiwu took the gem and respectfully replied, "Understood." With a wave of the black-clad figure’s hand, they left area 7-77. The black-clad figure disappeared, leaving Zhu Qiwu alone in the starry sky. Zhu Qiwu held the gem, a thoughtful look in his eyes. "It seems the kid has caught your attention." The challenges continued, and the audience went from being amazed to becoming accustomed to it. In every battle, Lin Moyu used the same move, summoning the Skeleton King and killing with one sword. Six consecutive battles ended this way. Now it was the seventh battle, and the hot-tempered Huo De stepped onto the stage.
