Chapter 1601: 1601 **Chapter 1601: The Key to Entering the Main Rune Space** The rune array is the core of the entire ancient battlefield, and there are two key components to the rune array. One is the main rune. Lin The main rune is a necessary condition for the rune array to function properly. The second component is the Soul Fire Rune within the rune array. The main rune must be connected to the Soul Fire Rune; if the main rune collapses, the space where the Soul Fire Rune is located will naturally collapse as well. Now, the independent space still exists, and although the Soul Fire Rune inside has been damaged, it can still perform some basic functions. This indicates that the main rune has not been severely damaged. At the same time, the power of the main rune can still communicate with the outside world, maintaining basic operations. This means there must be a path to enter the area where the main rune is located. Lin Moyu had already explored all the passages inside the ancient battlefield, using a large number of Skeleton God Warriors, leaving no corner unchecked. Therefore, this path is not inside but outside, on the surface of the ancient battlefield. Lin Moyu left the internal passages and returned to the surface of the ancient battlefield. He began to carefully examine the battlefield. A desolate and bleak atmosphere permeated the entire battlefield, with ruins and piles of rubble everywhere. Even if a meteor from the starry sky struck it, it wouldn’t cause even a slight damage to the ancient battlefield, leaving no mark. But now, the ancient battlefield was full of huge pits and cracks in the ground. These were all created by fists, palms, and weapons. If the ancient battlefield were not sturdy enough, far surpassing ordinary stars, it would have been shattered long ago. The material that Lin Moyu couldn’t damage even with all his strength was riddled with holes, indicating how intense the battle was at that time. Lin Moyu flew over the ancient battlefield, comparing it with the array diagram in his mind, searching for the entrance. During this time, evil spirits attacked, but the pure white sword energy swept through the starry sky, wiping out all the evil spirits. Mere evil spirits could no longer interfere with Lin Moyu. After flying around the ancient battlefield several times, he still couldn’t find the corresponding entrance. Another evil spirit attacked, only to be easily killed by the Skeleton God General. "Evil spirits?" "Rune blade." Lin Moyu suddenly remembered that Qiao Zhengyuan had mentioned finding a previously undiscovered passage in the ancient battlefield. From there, he had obtained the rune blade. A previously undiscovered passage must be very hidden. Unfortunately, he was targeted by an evil spirit at that time and had to escape, so he didn’t remember the exact location. But it didn’t matter; evil spirits were the best guides. In the vision of the undead, evil spirits appeared as soul fires filled with impurities. Normal soul fires, regardless of strength, are pure and clean. Even the soul fire of a small flower is pure. But the soul fire of an evil spirit is filled with impurities, appearing as a kaleidoscope of colors, very dazzling. The skeletons conducted a carpet search in the ancient battlefield, and in the vision of the undead, evil spirits had nowhere to hide. Soon, Lin Moyu found a place where a large number of evil spirits were gathered. This was where Qiao Zhengyuan had found the rune blade. Judging by the strength of the soul fires, the evil spirits inside were mostly at the God King level, no wonder Qiao Zhengyuan had to escape. With his sixth-level True God cultivation, he would have died if he hadn’t escaped. The Skeleton God General rushed ahead, following the trajectory in the vision of the undead, and found the place where the evil spirits were clustered. Then, sword energy swept through, eliminating all the evil spirits. This passage was located at the bottom of a crack. The crack was ten thousand meters deep, forming a large canyon, a sword mark. That sword strike had almost split the ancient battlefield in half. Even now, Lin Moyu could still feel the sword energy left on both sides of the canyon. The sword energy had not dissipated after countless years, indicating how terrifying the owner of that sword was. By comparing the terrain, Lin Moyu found the position where the sword mark corresponded to the rune array. That sword strike had not only almost split the entire ancient battlefield but also cut the rune array in half. Although the runes had suffered many damages, this sword strike accounted for a large part. Feeling the sword energy, Lin Moyu flew to the bottom of the canyon. Following the steps of the Skeleton God General, he found a cave hidden behind the rubble. The Skeleton God General had already rushed into the cave, and the evil spirits inside had been eliminated. This passage was actually part of the rune array and was very close to the central main rune. Moreover, this passage had only one entrance, at the bottom of the canyon. Previously, he hadn’t thought of this, so he missed it. Finally, at the end of the passage, he saw a stone wall. The stone wall, like other parts of the passage, was covered with runes. But Lin Moyu noticed its special nature; the runes on it were different from those in other places. They were somewhat similar to the runes on the floor of the previous room. 𝕗𝕣𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝚌𝕠𝚖 These runes represented one meaning: door. Behind it, there was space. Judging by the terrain map, the space behind it was where the main rune of the ancient battlefield’s rune array was located. The method to enter was also simple, the same as in the room, using the corresponding rune blade to open it. It was the rune blade that Qiao Zhengyuan had obtained. Lin Moyu felt a bit speechless; he had returned the rune blade to Wang Xing, and now it should be in the hands of the Wang family. He hadn’t expected this, but it wasn’t a big problem; he just needed to go to the Wang family to get the rune blade back. Moreover, he also needed to find Wang Xing to inquire about joining the Rune Master Association. The Rune Master Association had a lot of information about rune masters, which he needed. Some information wasn’t available in the Human Emperor Network, even if you paid for it. It could only be found within the Rune Master Association. When learning about runes, Lin Moyu had already decided to join the Rune Master Association. Leaving the ancient battlefield, he flew towards the 12301 star system. The main rune was something he had to see. On 12301-1 star, the Wang family was the undisputed overlord. Although they also had to act within the rules of the Human Emperor Network, they had some privileges. After all, they were the administrators of this star system. Moreover, in the higher regions, there was another Wang family, the main family, which was extremely powerful. In the Wang family, Wang Xing had already returned. He had reported the previous events in detail and handed over the rune blade. In his eyes, the previous matters involving the Lu and Qiao families were trivial. Only the unknown God King had impressed him. He occasionally thought about it over the past few days. "He hasn’t joined the Rune Master Association yet." "If I can become his introducer, I might gain some benefits." "He went to the ancient battlefield; I wonder when he will return." Wang Xing was drinking tea in his courtyard when he suddenly heard a voice, "Brother Wang!" Looking up, he saw someone watching him from ten thousand meters in the air. "It’s him!" Wang Xing was surprised. He had just thought about him, and he had returned. Surprise aside, he was also shocked. The Wang family was protected by an array, not a defensive array, but one that concealed their presence. From outside the array, one couldn’t see inside. But Lin Moyu had easily found him, making him question Lin Moyu’s strength. Was this guy really just a God King? Wang Xing flew up to Lin Moyu with a smile, very polite, "I was just wondering when you would return. Come down and have some tea; let’s talk."
