Chapter 2079: The Reward Given by the Greater World
The process of drawing rune formations is also a process of learning and mastering runes.
Every rune master needs to spend a lot of time familiarizing themselves with their runes and rune formations.
Lin Moyu continuously drew the Containment Rune Formation along the way.
Gradually, the Containment Rune Formation became increasingly perfect, and the drawing process became faster and faster.
From initially taking half an hour to draw one, it later took only ten minutes to complete.
However, ten minutes was still too slow. In the first inheritance of the Holy Talisman Heavenly Lord, it was mentioned that the ultimate state of a rune master should be "one thought, ten thousand runes."
As long as the thought arises, the runes should be drawn.
But reaching this state is very difficult. Even the Holy Talisman Heavenly Lord himself only touched this realm.
For some simple runes, the Holy Talisman Heavenly Lord could achieve "one thought, ten thousand runes," but for more complex runes, it was still not possible.
According to him, this realm would be the strongest state of a rune master. If he could fully achieve it, he might be able to take another step and touch the elusive realm of the Dao Sovereign.
"One thought, ten thousand runes," this realm is too distant, and Lin Moyu temporarily did not think about it.
He had seen the Holy Talisman Heavenly Lord instantly deploy rune formations, using a large number of runes.
Previously, he thought that after reaching the Saint Sovereign realm, he could instantly draw runes. Later, he learned that the Holy Talisman Heavenly Lord also had a treasure similar to the treasure ship.
Usually, he stored the drawn runes inside, and when needed, he directly called them out.
Over the past few months, the drawing speed of the Containment Rune Formation not only increased, but its effectiveness also improved, directly manifesting as an increasingly larger internal space.
Containing star systems was no problem. Even if some star systems had ten stars and extremely large stars, the Containment Rune could still store them.
Seven months later, Lin Moyu left the star region of the former Qinghe Race.
The formation seals were removed, and the starry sky completely returned to normal.
The warship sank into deep space, continuing to fly towards the outer region.
The starry sky that once belonged to the Qinghe Race was quiet and empty, the entire starry sky plunged into deathly silence.
Lin Moyu not only exterminated the entire Qinghe Race but also packed up their planets.
At this moment, the treasure ship's warehouse was filled with over a hundred Containment Rune Formations, each containing a star system.
A total of 121 star systems, with hundreds of planets of various sizes.
The Qinghe Race was gone, their people gone, and their home gone.
Lin Moyu sat in the warship, with a look of surprise and a bit of excitement on his face.
At the same time, he exuded a mysterious aura, an aura he had seen before, belonging to the state of enlightenment.
Just now, he had experienced a state of enlightenment.
Even Lin Moyu found it strange. He clearly did nothing, yet he inexplicably entered a state of enlightenment.
Until the enlightenment ended, he didn't know why.
The enlightenment didn't last long, only a day's time, but for Lin Moyu, the gains were immense.
"Why?"
Lin Moyu always liked to understand the ins and outs of everything, especially after understanding the cause and effect, he wanted to know why.
He began to recall, from before the enlightenment began, not missing any detail or feeling.
Mainly the feelings, Lin Moyu was sure he did nothing, no issues in his actions.
Before the enlightenment, he felt an inexplicable sense of relief, a feeling of being unburdened.
But this feeling lasted only a moment, less than half a second.
Lin Moyu murmured, "Why did I feel relieved? Could it be because of the long-term battle, making me feel tired?"
"It's not impossible. After killing so many along the way, feeling a bit tired is normal."
"Then I felt a peculiar aura."
In hindsight, that aura felt familiar.
Lin Moyu's eyes suddenly lit up. He knew where that aura came from.
It was the aura of the Greater World Rune, something he had felt before.
The Greater World Rune had once descended with a curse, preventing him from advancing.
"The Greater World Rune descended, but this time it wasn't a curse, it was a reward."
"Why reward me? Is it because of the Qinghe Race?"
"That's right, it's because of the Qinghe Race."
Lin Moyu finally understood. He exterminated the Qinghe Race, seemingly causing endless killing, but for the Greater World Rune, it was a good thing.
The Greater World Rune doesn't distinguish between right and wrong, good and evil. It only distinguishes between what is beneficial or harmful to itself.
Clearly, what he did was beneficial to the Greater World Rune.
The Greater World Rune was now burdened with karma, overwhelmed, and the Qinghe Race was one of them.
He was actually reducing its burden. The Greater World Rune was fair; if you did something beneficial to it, it would naturally reward you. So he entered a state of enlightenment, experiencing something that many cultivators could not achieve in a lifetime.
Before entering the state of enlightenment, Lin Moyu summoned the star rivers of the time and space laws.
After entering the state of enlightenment, his vision fell into the boundless void, beginning to comprehend the laws.
In a whole day of enlightenment, he gained immense benefits. The Greater World Rune seemed to know what he wanted.
The star rivers of the time and space laws flowed endlessly before his eyes, with a large amount of comprehension flowing into his soul.
The laws of time and space steadily improved during the enlightenment.
When the mastery of both laws reached 20%, they began to merge again.
This time, the fusion was smooth, without the constant conflicts that had previously caused the cultivation room in the Divine City to explode.
In the state of enlightenment, everything became mysterious.
Everyone desires enlightenment. One instance of enlightenment is worth hundreds or even thousands of years of cultivation.
Many cultivators stuck at bottlenecks, unable to break through in their lifetime, hope for an instance of enlightenment to help them break through.
Unfortunately, enlightenment is rare and elusive. Most cultivators will never experience it.
Lin Moyu had already experienced enlightenment three times, enough to make anyone envious.
As the laws of time and space improved and completed their fusion, Lin Moyu knew he could advance.
He left deep space, exited the warship, and stood in the starry sky.
This was a void, with nothing within billions of miles.
With a thought, the star rivers of the laws appeared.
The star river of the Undying Law, as Lin Moyu's life law, was closest to him.
Below it were the star rivers of the time and space laws, running parallel, neither above nor below the other.
At the bottom was the star river of the starlight law, emitting a soft glow, illuminating the other three star rivers.
Lin Moyu took a step forward, his body entering the star river of the Undying Law.
The Undying Law turned into a giant wave, rolling towards him. When it touched him, the wave suddenly calmed.
He was already a second-tier God Sovereign, having walked through the first two stages. Within this range, the star river of the laws would not obstruct him.
Moments later, he reached the position he had previously reached, standing steadily.
This position represented about 20% of the star river of the laws, corresponding to his realm, the second tier of the God Sovereign.
He continued forward, and the giant wave of the laws suddenly became fierce, no longer calm, like giant hands slapping him, trying to knock him down.
Lin Moyu ignored the giant wave, continuing to walk forward step by step.
The further he walked, the fiercer the giant wave became.
In the vast star river of the laws, only Lin Moyu was walking, looking both brave and lonely.
Step by step, his body shone with a brilliant purple-gold light, never stopping.
Until he walked through 30%, he finally stopped again.
His aura continuously rose, and the giant wave of the laws also calmed.
"I've advanced!"
Lin Moyu sighed lightly. Although it was expected, he was still pleased.
