 Chapter 3098: The Dangerous Ancient Battle Secret Realm

In total, eighteen stars revived, representing eighteen Star Lord legacies returning to the Thousand Stars Dao.

The more Star Lord legacies returned, the more the Thousand Stars Dao recovered.

Such a small jade stone having such a miraculous effect completely exceeded Lin Moyu's expectations.

Previously, Lin Moyu had been using soul power to revive stars, and several stars had already revived, but the process was extremely slow.

Although Lin Moyu's soul power was inexhaustible, constantly replenishing, he couldn't use it recklessly in large amounts. He had to maintain a certain speed.

Now a small jade stone equaled a hundred years of his effort. It had to be said, this was truly a good thing.

When no more stars lit up, Lin Moyu's consciousness returned from the Thousand Stars Dao to reality.

By now, the jade stone in his hand had turned to powder. Its power was completely exhausted, finally dissipating into the air with a gentle breeze.

The exquisite box was now empty. Lin Moyu increasingly wanted to find more such boxes, perhaps finding more good things.

In prehistoric times, there were many good things. It was just unknown how many could be preserved until now.

At this time, Jin Lan was still enveloped by the spirit flower. The spirit flower was gradually dissipating, and as it dissipated, Jin Lan's injuries were recovering.

The spirit flower wasn't very effective for Great Dao realm beings, but for Dao Venerables, it was a miraculous item.

Even for a ninth-level Dao Venerable powerhouse like Jin Lan, if one spirit flower wasn't enough, another could be used.

Lin Moyu leisurely drank tea, patiently waiting.

A moment later, the spirit flower completely disappeared from view. Jin Lan slowly opened her eyes, two beams of golden light shooting from them straight to the sky.

The pavilion roof was swept by the golden light, directly turning to ash.

Enormous power unconsciously surged from her body. The entire courtyard shook and rumbled. Water in the artificial lake surged to the sky. The stone bridge and corridor over the lake collapsed in the shaking.

In an instant, the originally beautiful courtyard almost became ruins.

The light of the sun's origin directly shone down. Lin Moyu felt warmth, and also some helplessness, "What a pity, just one courtyard."

Fully recovered, Jin Lan retracted her aura.

She showed no reaction to the destruction she caused. Such things were trivial.

Her gaze filled with joy. She suddenly stood up and bowed to Lin Moyu, "Thank you, Friend Lin. Jin Lan will remember this kindness. In the future, if Friend Lin has any need, please don't hesitate to ask. Jin Lan will not refuse."

Lin Moyu sat without moving, graciously accepting Jin Lan's great bow. He deserved this courtesy.

"Great Elder Jin Lan, how is your injury now?"

Jin Lan said, "It's 90% healed. In the future, I should only need to take a Great Dao Longevity Pill once every hundred years."

She was ninth-level Dao Venerable. One spirit flower couldn't completely heal her injury.

However, changing from taking medicine once every ten years to once every hundred years was already a huge improvement.

This way, the pressure on Jin Lan was greatly reduced. At least she no longer had to be the poorest ninth-level Dao Venerable.

Suddenly, she froze in place, staring blankly at Lin Moyu.

Another spirit flower appeared in Lin Moyu's hand, then flew towards her.

Lin Moyu's voice sounded at the same time, "Another one, and Great Elder Jin Lan should be fully healed."

Jin Lan's body trembled slightly. Her voice also trembled with excitement, "Friend Lin, this flower is too precious..."

She knew very well that the spirit flower was much more valuable than the Great Dao Longevity Pill.

Lin Moyu said, "Indeed it's quite precious, but being able to heal Great Elder Jin Lan's injury is putting it to good use."

"Great Elder Jin Lan needn't stand on ceremony. Heal your injury first. I have something to trouble you with later."

Jin Lan took the spirit flower, forcibly suppressing her inner excitement, "Mr. Lin, whatever you need, please say it. Jin Lan wouldn't dare refuse."

Her form of address for Lin Moyu changed from "Friend Lin" to "Mr. Lin".

From this moment, she had completely acknowledged Lin Moyu.

Most beast race people didn't have many twists and turns. From a single form of address, one could discern what position someone held in their hearts.

Not everyone could be called "Mister", especially not an outsider like Lin Moyu.

The spirit flower grew again, enveloping Jin Lan.

This time, the spirit flower's healing speed was much faster than before. The previous spirit flower had already healed the main part. Now the second spirit flower was finishing up.

In just ten minutes, the spirit flower dissipated, and Jin Lan's injuries were completely healed.

Jin Lan bowed deeply to Lin Moyu again, "Thank you, sir."

Lin Moyu smiled, "Great Elder Jin Lan is too polite. Now it's my turn to trouble you."

Jin Lan said, "Please instruct me."

Lin Moyu said, "The first thing is, can Great Elder Jin Lan tell me where you obtained this box?"

Jin Lan answered without hesitation, "The Ancient Battle Secret Realm."

Lin Moyu said, "Can you tell me more specifically?"

Jin Lan's eyes showed recollection as she recounted the situation at that time, "At that time, I had just broken through to seventh-level ancestor. The Ancient Battle Secret Realm happened to open, so I went in..."

From her description, Lin Moyu learned about the whole process and gained a new understanding of the Ancient Battle Secret Realm.

The Ancient Battle Secret Realm was a group of secret realms. How many secret realms there were inside was unknown.

It was said that the reason for this was that too many powerful beings had died in this ancient battlefield.

After many powerful beings died, their power hadn't completely dissipated. Their bodies didn't decay, and finally formed one secret realm after another.

Because everyone cultivated different techniques, had different power levels, and different personalities and consciousness when alive, the secret realms formed were also completely different.

The secret realm Jin Lan entered was a simple war secret realm. There were no mysteries. She defeated a hundred-man army in the secret realm, and finally obtained this treasure box from the army's headquarters.

The hundred-man army she faced at that time was led by a seventh-level ancestor. The remaining soldiers were all fifth-level Dao Venerable powerhouses, but they still couldn't stop her.

Later, Jin Lan entered the Ancient Battle Secret Realm several more times, but those times, she didn't gain much.

From Jin Lan's words, Lin Moyu learned that the Ancient Battle Secret Realm was also divided into levels, split into four areas.

The entry area corresponded to below Dao Venerable.

The low-level area corresponded to first to third-level Dao Venerable, the mid-level area to fourth to sixth level, and the high-level area to seventh level and above.

Upon first entering the Ancient Battle Secret Realm, one would be teleported to the area corresponding to their cultivation realm based on their different cultivation levels.

Entrants could move within their own area. If they wanted to go to a higher-level area, they needed to find the correct path and pass some tests.

The location of the Ancient Battle Secret Realm was an ancient battlefield.

Besides having many secret realms, there were also many strange creatures.

These creatures had a unified name, called battle beasts.

Battle beasts should have originally been spirit beasts. On the ancient battlefield, influenced by the battlefield's resentment and powerful beings' energy, they evolved into battle beasts.

Battle beasts were stronger than spirit beasts of the same level, and often appeared in groups, not easy to deal with.

Besides this, on the outskirts of the Ancient Battle Secret Realm, one might sometimes encounter armies.

The Ancient Battle Secret Realm wasn't unchanging. Sometimes secret realms would shatter, and the battle beasts and armies inside would rush out.

Sometimes even when secret realms didn't shatter, the beings inside would still rush out.

So the entire Ancient Battle Secret Realm was full of uncertainty. Each time it opened, at least 30-40% of the people who went in would die inside. The death rate wasn't low.

The most disastrous time was when an army led by a seventh-level Dao Venerable rushed out of a secret realm and killed their way into the mid-level area.

That time, over 70% of the Dao Venerables in the mid-level area died.
