 **Chapter 1847: Statue of a Human Ancestor**

The red flame and ice blue Buddha statues were identical, also half-formed, but complementary halves.

If they could be joined together, they would form a complete Buddha statue.

Unfortunately, the other half was covered in broken stones.

The stones were deeply rooted into the statue, impossible to separate.

Lin Moyu carefully probed, finding the stones growing on the statue extremely solid and immovable.

Yu Qingrou asked curiously, "You said these two Buddha statues are souls."

"But how could souls without physical bodies exist for so long? This place feels ancient, clearly a very long time has passed."

Lin Moyu was also pondering this question.

Sensing the ancient atmosphere, he said, "Souls at the Other Shore realm couldn't exist this long, but higher realms might be different."

Yu Qingrou was shocked, "You're saying it's an existence even stronger than the Other Shore realm? Isn't that just legend?"

Lin Moyu replied, "Legends are often based on things that once existed, otherwise there wouldn't even be legends."

Perhaps because Lin Moyu sounded so certain, Yu Qingrou smiled and asked, "Have you seen it yourself?"

Lin Moyu nodded, "I have."

Yu Qingrou's eyes lit up, widening, "Really? Then tell me, what's beyond the Other Shore realm?"

Lin Moyu said, "Actually, this isn't a secret. If you asked the clan elders, they would tell you - beyond the Other Shore is called Supreme."

Indeed, it wasn't a secret, just a name for a realm.

Given Yu Qingrou's status, she could easily get an answer if she asked, so there was no point hiding it.

Yu Qingrou murmured, "So it's Supreme... I wonder how it compares to Holy Venerable."

Lin Moyu suddenly had a flash of insight, as if grasping some key points, "Princess, do you know about Holy Venerable's rule worlds?"

Yu Qingrou nodded, "Yes, I've trained in the Grand Elder's rule world before."

Lin Moyu probed further, "What do you think rule worlds are like?"

Yu Qingrou answered, "Rule worlds eliminate all irrelevant rules, keeping only the ones needed. It's a world belonging to the Holy Venerable."

"In the Grand Elder's rule world, spatial laws were very prominent. Training there was twice as effective..."

Realizing something, Yu Qingrou exclaimed, "Are you saying this is a rule world?"

Looking around, Lin Moyu said, "If I'm not mistaken, it should be."

Yu Qingrou surveyed the area, "Now that you mention it, it does seem similar."

Lin Moyu had once entered Hao Holy Venerable's rule world, but his time there was brief and it was too unique, so he couldn't fully grasp it.

He only had a vague sense, which became clearer after Yu Qingrou's reminder.

If his guess was correct, this was a Supreme's rule world, even more powerful than a Holy Venerable's.

Even after the Supreme's death, their rule world remained, forming an independent world.

Lin Moyu had other thoughts as well.

Suddenly, the heavens rumbled. The fireballs that had been chaotically flying through the air began to violently dance.

Countless flames fell from the sky, crashing into the ground and exploding into fierce fires.

The entire earth shook, cracks appearing everywhere with flames bursting forth, turning the sky blood red.

"Watch out!" Yu Qingrou saw a fireball hurtling towards Lin Moyu like a meteor.

Lin Moyu reacted faster, pulling her behind him and throwing a punch.

**His fist shone with dazzling golden light, blasting away the flaming meteor.**

The massive impact force made Lin Moyu tremble, nearly losing his footing.

The golden light on his fist dimmed significantly.

"Such power," Lin Moyu sighed softly, once again embracing Yu Qingrou and quickly retreating.

Shortly after they left, numerous fireballs crashed down from the sky, targeting the high platform.

The fireballs mainly struck the platform, especially the Buddha statue atop it.

Fire pillars rose from the ground around the platform, forming a defense against the fireballs.

In truth, what needed to be defended against wasn't the fireballs themselves, but the stone fragments within them.

The flames' purpose was to burn away these stone fragments.

The fragments were incredibly sturdy, resisting the flames no matter how fiercely they burned.

Yu Qingrou sighed, "How did this happen? Do you know why?"

"Don't speak for now," Lin Moyu interrupted her.

Yu Qingrou obediently closed her mouth.

Lin Moyu activated his soul sight, searching for something amidst the countless flames.

Earlier, he had caught a fleeting glimpse of a subtle karmic thread.

This thread seemed to connect to the half Buddha statue from the sky.

Karmic threads weren't always visible, only revealing themselves under special circumstances.

However, seeing the thread had largely confirmed Lin Moyu's suspicions.

With effort, he managed to spot the karmic thread again.

"Let's go," Lin Moyu said, picking up Yu Qingrou without explanation and dashing off into the distance.

The sky was violently shaking, and the previously calm stone fragments had become extremely agitated...

They rained down like raindrops, each impact creating a large crater in the ground.

However, these craters would quickly repair themselves, returning to normal in an instant.

Lin Moyu carried Yu Qingrou, constantly dodging the stone fragments while tracking the karmic thread.

The thread would appear and disappear, easily lost if he wasn't careful.

Finally, Lin Moyu found the correct path.

An unusual scene appeared on the barren land.

Yu Qingrou exclaimed in shock, "One side is blazing flames, the other is ice!"

A line had appeared on the ground, with red flames on the left and deep blue ice on the right.

Where fire and ice met resembled a strange planet, yet was completely different.

Lin Moyu advanced along this dividing line, his speed increasing.

Occasionally he glanced at the karmic thread in the sky, ensuring he hadn't lost his way.

"There's a statue ahead!" Yu Qingrou pointed straight ahead.

Lin Moyu had already seen it - a statue about 100 meters tall, equally lifelike.

The difference was that it was made entirely of stone blocks.

In a 10,000-meter radius around the statue, no stone fragments fell. It was completely calm.

Not only were there no falling fragments, but the temperature had also returned to normal - neither hot nor cold.

Lin Moyu finally relaxed, setting Yu Qingrou down and dispelling his Divine King Golden Body.

Maintaining the Divine King Golden Body for so long had put considerable strain on him.

They approached the statue. Yu Qingrou said, "This statue seems to be an ancestor of your human race."

There was no doubt - Lin Moyu knew it was a human statue the moment he saw it.

Its attire was identical to that of the Star-Shattering Supreme.

What he saw differed from what Yu Qingrou saw.

Yu Qingrou only saw a lifelike statue.

But through his soul sight, Lin Moyu could see the soul within the statue.

He looked again with his undead vision, confirming the soul was dead.

His suspicions were now fully confirmed - this Supreme's soul had died, yet continued to fight.

Such willpower was admirable.

Lin Moyu bowed respectfully to the statue.

This human ancestor, fighting for the Great World, deserved his respect.

Lin Moyu bowed three times, completing the grand gesture.

Suddenly, the statue burst into brilliant light. A beam shot from its eyes into Lin Moyu's mind.

Outside his soul world, a majestic figure appeared!
