Chapter 485: The Second Primordial Rune

The thunderous roar echoed in the Thunder Burial Valley, but the Thunder God did not collapse due to the Thunder God's demise.

Although the Thunder God was gone, the power it left behind still maintained the operation of the Thunder Burial Valley.

The small plaza outside the Thunder God's tomb would still exist. If someone was lucky enough to reach there, they could still receive rewards.

However, they could no longer enter the Thunder God's tomb or see the Thunder God's palace.

At this time, many electric grasses were growing in the Thunder Burial Valley, swaying in the lightning.

"Time to leave!"

Lin Moyu took one last look at the collapsed cave and valley, but just as he was about to leave, he suddenly stopped.

Behind the collapsed mountain, Lin Moyu saw a stone tablet.

His eyes narrowed sharply, and he flew over at top speed.

The stone tablet was hidden within the mountain, only revealed after the mountain collapsed.

The tablet was engraved with complex runes, winding like dragons and phoenixes, making it impossible to decipher their meaning.

However, anyone could see that these runes were extraordinary.

Lin Moyu couldn't understand them for the time being.

But it didn't matter if he couldn't understand them, as long as he knew what they were.

[Primordial Rune]

Lin Moyu never expected to find a [Primordial Rune] hidden within the mountain.

He almost missed it.

With a flick of his spiritual power, the stone tablet was activated.

The tablet flowed like water into Lin Moyu's body, and immediately a red light shot into the sky.

The [Soldier] character on the back of his left hand also flickered, as if resonating with the newly acquired [Primordial Rune].

The power of the [Primordial Rune] was immense, and one could only truly understand it after experiencing it firsthand.

The [Strong Soldier] skill brought by the [Soldier] character had saved Lin Moyu countless times, helping him slay powerful enemies. If he could gain another equally powerful skill...

The soaring red light immediately drew the attention of countless people.

Everyone knew the meaning behind the red light.

For the next ten days, the owner of the red light would be the target of many.

Unlike the previous time when he passively let others find him, this time Lin Moyu's eyes burned with killing intent, "Time for another massacre, but this time I'll be the one finding you."

Bearing the soaring red light, Lin Moyu's Lightning Undead Wings fluttered as he shot off like lightning.

When Lin Moyu first set foot on the Wind and Thunder Continent, he encountered an attack from the Dragon Clan.

At that time, he decided that after completing his deal with Antares, he would go to the Dragon Clan's base to investigate.

He wanted to find out what the Dragon Clan was up to, and whether those war puppet warriors could be mass-produced.

If that was truly the case, it would not be good news for the human race.

Although Lin Moyu himself was not afraid, the top professionals in the human army would face danger on the battlefield.

Moreover, before Lin Moyu left for the Ancient Battlefield, news had already arrived that the Dragon Clan was preparing for war.

War was not far away.

After lying dormant for a thousand years, the Dragon Clan had only launched two relatively small wars since their return.

They would not stop there, and were undoubtedly preparing for a larger-scale war.

The hatred between races could not be easily erased.

Lin Moyu flew at low altitude, still paying close attention to the Wind Flowers.

The movements of the Wind Flowers were too mysterious, and Lin Moyu did not want to provoke them for the time being.

Lin Moyu kept checking the map, changing directions frequently.

He was searching for the Dragon Clan, while the Dragon Clan and demons were also searching for him.

The red light of the [Primordial Rune] was too conspicuous, attracting the Dragon Clan and demons like moths to a flame.

When they saw that the one who obtained the [Primordial Rune] was a mere level 52 human professional, they became excited and lost their senses.

They didn't even wonder why a level 52 could appear in the lower space and obtain a [Primordial Rune].

Wasn't the [Primordial Rune] something that could be obtained so easily?

When they rushed over mindlessly, they were met with Lin Moyu's slaughter.

Along the way, Lin Moyu was constantly ambushed, but he killed them in batches.

Experience gradually accumulated through the killings.

Military merits were no longer useful to him.

No matter how many military merits he had, they could not help him advance his general stars.

Only by killing demon kings, dragon kings, and other powerful beings could he continue to increase his general stars.

And killing just one was not enough.

He was now a three-star Divine General, and to advance to a four-star Divine General, he would need to kill four of them.

Lin Moyu only had a rough idea of the direction, and it was not easy to find the Dragon Clan's base.

However, Lin Moyu knew that as long as he got closer, the Dragon Clan would come to him.

Whether it was the aura of him slaughtering the Dragon Clan or the red light of the [Primordial Rune], both were huge temptations.

Sure enough, within half a day, a large number of Dragon Clan warships appeared in sight.

Thousands of Dragon Clan warships floated in the air, each carrying an entire squad of war puppet warriors, numbering over 100,000.

100,000 Dragon Clan warriors... this number was astonishing.

It would be enough for the Dragon Clan to launch a full-scale war against the human race.

One could imagine how many top professionals the human race would lose in such a war.

And the Dragon Clan's losses would only be some war puppets.

"Where did the Dragon Clan get so many materials?"

Lin Moyu frowned slightly, as creating war puppets required a vast amount of materials.

War puppet warriors at the warrior level must have even higher material requirements. Where did the Dragon Clan obtain such high-quality materials?

Upon discovering Lin Moyu, the Dragon Clan warships erupted with chaotic voices.

The war puppets ignored Lin Moyu's soaring red light, but the true Dragon Clan members did not.

[Primordial Rune!]

[He killed many of our clansmen, kill him and take the Primordial Rune.]

[A few days ago, we investigated and found out that this level 52 is a human professional named Lin Moyu, who the Dragon King has ordered to be killed.]

[Kill him, hand over the Primordial Rune to the Dragon King, and you'll receive an astonishing reward.]

The Dragon Clan members shouted and roared.

The magic crystals on the Dragon Clan warships all lit up.

In an instant, massive pillars of light shot towards Lin Moyu from all directions.

Lin Moyu had expected this and instantly dove towards the ground.

Below him were vast stretches of Thunder Trees.

The Dragon Clan warships immediately ceased their attacks, not daring to provoke the Thunder Trees.

Provoking even a single Thunder Tree would result in disaster.

They would be attacked by the entire group of Thunder Trees.

Although the Dragon Clan had over a thousand warships and 100,000 warriors, compared to the mountain ranges of Thunder Trees, they were insignificant and not worth mentioning.

The warships could not attack, so the Dragon Clan warriors on board charged out.

100,000 Dragon Clan warriors poured down like a flood, but Lin Moyu calmly said, "Time to level up again!"

The undead army emerged, with the Skeleton Berserkers at the forefront, directly engaging the Dragon Clan warriors.

Lin Moyu was not worried at all about facing an enemy ten times his number with only 10,000 Skeleton Berserkers.

Just as the two sides were about to clash, the [Soldier] character on the back of his hand flickered.

The [Strong Soldier] skill suddenly activated, instantly increasing the combat power of the entire undead army by nearly tenfold.

The Skeleton Berserkers swung their axes, unleashing skills equivalent to attacks with over 8 million strength attributes, making the Dragon Clan warriors seem insignificant in comparison.

With a single skill, thousands of Dragon Clan warriors were instantly killed.

The Skeleton Mages and Archers had also joined the battle.

With their area-of-effect attacks, nearly a thousand warrior-level war puppets were directly killed.

The Skeleton Berserkers moved extremely fast, quickly catching the falling corpses of the war puppets.

Although they were puppets, their life force was real.

After catching the corpses, the Skeleton Berserkers forcefully threw them into the sky.

The corpse explosion had a range of 420 meters.

And the height of the Dragon Clan warships from the ground was only about 300 meters.

The battle took place about 150 meters above the ground.

When the corpses reached a height of 500 meters, Lin Moyu raised his hand and activated a skill.

Under the [Strong Soldier] state, the damage of the corpse explosion was amplified sixfold on top of the original damage.

Amidst the explosions, terrifying energy swept through like a raging wind.

The protective shields of the warships twisted and deformed, on the verge of shattering.

And that was just from a single corpse. The Skeleton Berserkers kept throwing up corpses one after another.

Moreover, the damage from the corpse explosions not only affected the warships but also the Dragon Clan warriors engaged in battle.

The Dragon Clan warriors were instantly killed, and their corpses became Lin Moyu's weapons.

After three consecutive corpse explosions, the protective shields of many warships shattered.

The true Dragon Clan warriors on board were visibly panicked.

They wanted to flee, but it was too late.

More consecutive corpse explosions directly destroyed the unprotected warships, killing all the Dragon Clan warriors on board.

The destroyed Dragon Clan warships fell from the sky and crashed onto the Thunder Trees below.

The Thunder Trees immediately erupted.

In an instant, countless thunderbolts rained down from the sky towards the Dragon Clan.

The Thunder Trees had identified them as the same kind due to their shared aura.

They were now being treated as the same by the Thunder Trees.

This was exactly what Lin Moyu had planned, using the Dragon Clan's own power against them.
