**Chapter 1579: The Third Stage, Indeed Very Dangerous**

At the moment when the vision became blurry, a large number of skeletal god generals appeared around Lin Moyu. This was an instinctive reaction; the secret realm was too dangerous, and unexpected events could happen at any time.

Lin Moyu felt himself being teleported, and the rules around him changed. His first reaction was to summon the skeletal god generals and use Bone Hell to envelop himself. The vision remained blurry, and nothing could be seen. Whether using the soul eye of the Other Shore realm or the undead vision, he couldn't see the surroundings clearly. The soul's perception also became blurry; he could vaguely sense some things, but they were indistinct.

In this completely unfavorable situation, the skeletal god generals transmitted a large amount of information back. They were under attack. For other cultivators, fighting in a situation where their eyes couldn't see was absolutely disadvantageous. Although cultivators didn't rely on their physical eyes, they heavily depended on soul perception. If both abilities were affected, their combat power would be greatly reduced.

Lin Moyu immediately ordered the skeletal god generals to counterattack. Although they couldn't lock onto targets, the skeletal god generals, relying on their numbers, could still counterattack. Lin Moyu summoned more skeletal god generals, launching attacks in all directions. Unable to find the enemy, they adopted a saturation attack method, covering all directions. The attacks on the skeletal god generals were strong, surpassing the ninth level of the God King realm, reaching the level of a small God Sovereign. Facing small God Sovereign-level attacks, the skeletal god generals were continuously injured, suffering severe damage. Lin Moyu snapped his fingers, and the Legion Ruler appeared, healing the skeletal god generals. As time passed, the attacks seemed to intensify.

The damage to the skeletal god generals also became more severe. Although the Legion Ruler could still heal, Lin Moyu had to summon more and more skeletal god generals. At this point, even the Legion Ruler was under attack. The source of the attacks was unknown, as were the methods and rules used. All that was known was that the attacks were omnidirectional, affecting all skeletal god generals and Legion Rulers simultaneously. The degree of damage they suffered was identical. Due to the difference in realms, the Legion Ruler suffered more damage than the skeletal god generals. Most of the Legion Ruler's healing spells were used on itself.

Only Lin Moyu, the master, was not attacked for some reason. "This can't go on!" Lin Moyu knew that if the attacks continued to intensify, his undead army would eventually be overwhelmed. Of course, he could gamble that the attacks had a limit. But he didn't dare to gamble because this was the power of rules. In the face of the power of rules, he couldn't afford to gamble.

Unable to see, Lin Moyu quickly reviewed the entire process in his mind. He suddenly realized that when the Legion Ruler first appeared, it wasn't attacked. It was only after the Legion Ruler healed the skeletal god generals that it was attacked. "In other words, except for the first wave of attacks, the subsequent attacks were passive, not active."

"Let's test it!"

With a thought, a skeletal god general appeared beside him. This skeletal god general remained motionless, not launching any attacks. One second, two seconds, three seconds... Ten seconds passed, and it was not attacked. Lin Moyu knew he had guessed correctly. Except for the first wave of attacks, the subsequent attacks were all passive. It was his counterattack orders that caused the skeletal god generals to be attacked. The Legion Ruler was also attacked because it healed the skeletal god generals.

Now he had two choices: let the current 100,000 skeletal god generals and tens of thousands of Legion Rulers endure the attacks until they reached their limit and were destroyed. This loss was not significant for him and was entirely bearable. Being able to bear it was one thing, but whether he was willing to bear it was another. Lin Moyu didn't want his undead army to sacrifice in vain. It wasn't that the undead army couldn't die, but they shouldn't die pointlessly.

Without much hesitation, Lin Moyu made a decision. Bone Hell instantly expanded, enveloping all the skeletal god generals. Lin Moyu joined the battle in his own way. This action was clearly seen as an attack. The next wave of attacks fell, including Lin Moyu. Bone Hell shook violently, trembling incessantly. The skeletal god generals and Legion Rulers were also attacked. The attacks ignored the obstruction of Bone Hell, hitting them in a way Lin Moyu couldn't understand.

"Mark!"

Lin Moyu whispered in his heart. One of Bone Hell's functions was to mark attackers. The marked target could be locked onto by the soul. Sure enough, a mark appeared in Lin Moyu's consciousness. In the next second, the soul locked onto it. There was no need to see it; as long as it was marked, it could be locked onto and couldn't escape.

"Attack!"

With a whisper in his heart, 100,000 skeletal god generals simultaneously swung their swords, attacking the target. Sword energy swept through, and a white mass appeared in the blurry vision. Boom! A more intense counterattack occurred, and the undead army suffered severe damage again. The Legion Ruler was busy healing, and all the skeletal god generals were enveloped in white light. Lin Moyu sensed that the marked target was not without damage. It was indeed injured, but not severely enough.

With determination, more skeletal god generals appeared. If 100,000 skeletal god generals weren't enough, then a million. As long as the space could accommodate them, ten times more wouldn't be a problem. The white sword energy filled the mysterious space, as if something was being torn apart. Lin Moyu heard a scream. Light appeared in his vision, quickly restoring clarity. He saw a monster looking at him in horror.

The monster was round and covered in spikes. Seeing it, Lin Moyu thought of a sea urchin. In the small world, many people liked to eat sea urchins. But the sea urchin monster before him was hundreds or thousands of times larger. It was at least a kilometer long, with a round body covered in spikes, and hundreds of eyes among the spikes. All the eyes showed the same emotion: fear. In the places without eyes, Lin Moyu saw a rune. It resembled a corner of the rune on the stone pillar but was different. The rune had been broken by him, injuring the sea urchin monster.

"The one affecting my vision and launching indiscriminate attacks was this rune!"

Lin Moyu quickly made a judgment. The sea urchin monster's strength was average, only at the small God Sovereign level. It wasn't much stronger than the skeletal god generals. Even an ordinary human small God Sovereign could defeat it. Its greatest strength was the rune. Lin Moyu didn't recognize the rune but knew it had the power of rules, capable of launching strange attacks.

The sea urchin monster screamed, seemingly warning Lin Moyu, then turned to flee. "Dream on if you think you can escape!" The skeletal god generals quickly acted, their sword energy engulfing it. Without the rune, the sea urchin monster had no other path but death against a million skeletal god generals. After killing the sea urchin monster, Lin Moyu didn't feel much relief. Without Bone Hell, he might not have passed this stage. If it were another cultivator, even a small God Sovereign, they would likely be helpless here. As the attacks intensified, they would ultimately meet their end.

The third stage was indeed very dangerous.
