**Chapter 1571: Rune Fragments in the Light Spots**

At the entrance of the secret realm, a vortex slowly rotated, bearing a strong resemblance to a dungeon entrance. There were many cultivators outside the secret realm, most of whom had received tasks to enter the secret realm. However, completing the secret realm tasks was not easy, and people were constantly being teleported out of the secret realm. Most of them looked dejected and panicked, indicating that successfully completing the tasks was rare. Lin Moyu observed for about ten minutes and saw more than ten people leave the secret realm. Only one person looked excited, suggesting he had completed his task. The majority, however, had failed and used escape talismans to leave, losing a talisman worth 5 points of Divine City merits, which was quite painful.

Lin Moyu also bought an escape talisman, though he hoped he wouldn't need it. He reached out to touch the vortex, and his soul power resonated with it. Instantly, he was sucked in, feeling exactly like entering a dungeon. Shortly after Lin Moyu entered the secret realm, a large group of people arrived, all of whom had been surpassed by Lin Moyu earlier.

"He went in."

"If it's really him, with his strength, he will definitely complete the task."

"He won't just complete the task; he might even finish the subsequent tasks."

"The difficulty seems too high, though."

"It's difficult for others, but for him, it shouldn't be."

Their discussion attracted a lot of attention. When they learned that the young man who had just entered was Lin Moyu, the first-place winner of the Four Star Region competition, they were all astonished.

"Is it really Lin Moyu? How did he get here?"

"Even if he is the first-place winner, does he not need to complete the promotion task?"

"The Four Star Region competition ended just a few days ago. How could he have completed the promotion task so quickly?"

"I heard that true geniuses in the Four Star Region can be directly granted primary qualifications."

"I've heard that too, but such people are very rare."

"Lin Moyu must have been granted primary qualifications exceptionally."

"Don't worry, we'll know when he comes out."

None of them planned to enter the secret realm; they all waited outside for Lin Moyu to come out.

Entering the Divine City secret realm felt exactly like entering a dungeon, confirming Lin Moyu's suspicion that the small world's dungeons and secret realms were related. As his feet touched the ground, the darkness turned to light, and his vision cleared. The scent of flowers filled his nose, and he found himself in a sea of flowers. Each person's entry point in the secret realm was different, unlike dungeons that had starting points and safe zones. Lin Moyu wondered if someone could be unlucky enough to be teleported directly into a swarm of poison bees and die immediately.

A breeze blew, causing the sea of flowers to sway like waves, producing a rustling sound. The vibrant colors were dazzling, and the entire scene was stunningly beautiful. Lin Moyu marveled at the beauty but remained vigilant. The more beautiful a place, the more dangerous it often was. A flash of white light appeared beside him, and a skeletal god warrior materialized. The undead vision activated instantly.

One flower... two flowers... ten flowers... a hundred flowers.

Countless soul flames appeared in the undead vision. Soul flames burned brightly in all directions. Lin Moyu's earlier speculation came true; he was surrounded by a swarm of poison bees. If he hadn't noticed, any movement could have alerted the poison bees. Switching back to his normal vision, he saw a poison bee the size of a fist resting on a bright flower. The soul flame indicated it was a third-level God King poison bee, the weakest type. There were over a thousand poison bees here, mostly third-level God Kings, with a few fourth-level God Kings. Only the leader was a fifth-level God King.

Lin Moyu had made no noise upon entering the secret realm, even when summoning the skeletal god warrior. The poison bees continued collecting nectar, unaware of his presence. Lin Moyu raised his hand and looked at the sky. The sky was bright, as if sunlight was shining down, making the secret realm world very bright. Gray flames ignited at his fingertips.

Stellar-level spell: Undead Gaze!

The sky suddenly darkened, and gray undead flames appeared out of nowhere, burning fiercely. The entire secret realm seemed connected to the undead world, turning gray in an instant. A massive undead eye, millions of meters in size, slowly opened in the gray flames. From the perspective of the great world, millions of meters was not much—just ten thousand kilometers. Any God King could traverse it in the blink of an eye. However, in the secret realm, millions of meters was astonishing. The flower sea where Lin Moyu stood was not even ten thousand meters wide.

The appearance of the undead eye caused a commotion in the flower sea. The poison bees, sensing danger, abandoned their work and took to the air. As they rose, the undead eye gazed upon them. Countless poison bees fell like raindrops. Their souls were obliterated, and they died instantly. From third-level to fifth-level God Kings, none of the thousands of poison bees survived. Against enemies of equal or lesser strength, this was a true weapon of mass destruction—an indiscriminate soul attack with a massive range, achieving instant kills.

Countless light spots ascended as the dead poison bees turned to dust and scattered in the wind, leaving no corpses behind. The ascending light spots resembled a beautiful reverse rain of light.

"What's this..."

Lin Moyu's eyes narrowed as he noticed something unusual in the light spots. There seemed to be rune-like objects faintly visible within the light spots. When he tried to look closely, they became indistinct. These runes seemed like mere shadows, making Lin Moyu wonder if he was seeing things. It seemed impossible for a God King to have hallucinations. Lin Moyu knew he wasn't mistaken; there were indeed runes in the light spots.

He opened his soul eye. If his physical eyes couldn't see clearly, he would use his soul eye. The soul eye of the Other Shore realm opened, emitting two invisible beams of light. The world before him changed. Lines of laws appeared around him, revealing the world of the Other Shore realm. Through the soul eye, Lin Moyu finally saw the runes in the light spots. They were all fragmented runes, none of them complete. Lin Moyu realized that the runes he saw were parts of a complete rune, like pieces of a shattered puzzle. If these fragments were reassembled, they might form a complete rune.

The light spots lasted only a few seconds before disappearing, taking the runes with them. However, Lin Moyu now knew how to continue observing the runes. He summoned a large number of skeletal god warriors and sent them in all directions. Killing poison bees and observing runes became Lin Moyu's primary focus, even putting the secret realm task aside. The task had no time limit, so there was no need to rush.
