Chapter 799: Battle of Remnant Souls, A Reflection of the Past
The revived elemental dragon, having died who knows how many years ago, has returned to the world.
It carries the memories of its previous life, knowing everything that happened before its death.
With its flesh and blood regenerated, it knows what has happened to its body.
Just as Lin Moyu had guessed, the insect race had occupied its body.
The laws of the fire element raged, but this time not towards the outside, but erupting within its body.
The dragon’s entire body burst into raging flames, transforming into a true fire dragon.
Its scales were burning, every inch of its body burning from the inside out.
Lin Moyu knew it was cleansing its own body.
At the super god level, one no longer drives the laws, but controls them.
Using the laws to burn itself, expelling foreign objects - this was not difficult for a super god.
Piercing shrieks came from within the corpse, the cries of the insects.
Under the scorching flames of the super god’s fire element laws, the insects were clearly suffering immensely.
"Damn bugs, die!"
The dragon sneered coldly, filled with rage, making the flames burn even more fiercely.
Finally, accompanied by a shrill cry, everything returned to silence.
The flames extinguished, and Lin Moyu said, "It’s done!"
The elemental dragon turned its head to look at Lin Moyu.
Its gaze carried respect as it respectfully called out, "Fire Elemental Dragon Rexxus greets the master."
It was a revived being. Even though it retained its memories from its previous life, when facing Lin Moyu, it could only treat him with the utmost respect.
Lin Moyu said, "Why did you become a puppet of the insect race?"
Rexxus searched his memories, "Back then, our dragon race participated in a war. In that war, many of our members perished."
"Later, I don’t know why, but my corpse was occupied by the puppet insects, becoming a puppet of the insect race."
"Damn insect race, daring to occupy our great dragon race, the Dragon God will not let them off."
Although Rexxus was respectful towards Lin Moyu, he still carried the pride of the dragon race, looking down on the insect race with disdain, just like Antares.
Lin Moyu said, "If I have a chance, I’ll help you tell the Dragon God about this matter."
Rexxus looked up at Lin Moyu, "You have met the great Dragon God?"
Lin Moyu nodded, "I’ve met him once, and perhaps there will be another chance to meet him in the future. If I can’t see him, I have a friend who can."
Rexxus asked further, "Is your friend also of the dragon race?"
Lin Moyu took out Antares’ dragon scale, "This is what he gave me."
Seeing Antares’ dragon scale, Rexxus immediately knelt down, prostrating on the ground, "The great Antares is actually your friend, Master, you are as great as Antares."
This was the first time Lin Moyu discovered that the dragon race could also flatter like this.
Of course, this was partly due to the Resurrection of the Dead spell, and partly due to Antares.
"You know Antares?"
Rexxus respectfully answered, "I was once fortunate enough to meet him."
Lin Moyu nodded, "Alright, when I go back I’ll tell him about this, and see how he deals with it."
Rexxus nodded vigorously, "Great one, you must tell the great one. What the insect race has done is blasphemy against our great dragon race. Once the Dragon God knows, he will not let them off."
Lin Moyu looked towards the distant place shrouded in black mist, "Do you know what’s going on inside there?"
Rexxus shook his head, indicating he didn’t know.
He must have died a long time ago, before appearing in the Land of the Buried Gods.
He was unaware of what happened after his death.
"Let’s go take a look."
Lin Moyu gave the order, and Rexxus immediately charged towards the black mist, not caring at all about safety.
Lin Moyu’s words were the highest command. The revived being would obey unconditionally, without any objection.
Lin Moyu sent out a skeletal warrior army numbering tens of thousands, following Rexxus into the black mist.
After entering the black mist, their connection with Lin Moyu was not severed.
Lin Moyu switched to the undead’s perspective to observe the situation inside.
Visibility was extremely poor in the black mist, only able to see a few meters ahead.
Step by step, they could vaguely make out many tombstones.
Moreover, the aura emanating from these tombstones was even more enormous.
Lin Moyu could sense that the owner of each tombstone here was at least a half-step super god.
Most of them also carried the aura of the human race.
There were not many auras of deities.
The skeletal warriors approached the tombstones and saw the inscriptions on them.
They were not too complicated, simply stating the identity of the person.
"Human, Tomb of the Crimson Fire God."
"Human, Tomb of the Graceful Moon Goddess."
"Deity, Tomb of the Whirlwind God."
Walking all the way to the deepest part of the graveyard, they saw several even larger tombstones, emitting an even stronger aura.
Lin Moyu saw the owners of these tombstones.
"Human, Tomb of the Sword Sovereign."
"Human, Tomb of the Fist Sovereign."
These few tombstones belonged to super god level experts.
In those days, god-level and half-step god-level experts were all called gods.
Once reaching the super god level, they were called sovereigns.
Sovereign meant respected, but also noble, and it was also a title.
In front of the Sword Sovereign’s tomb, a small sword floated in the air, with a large amount of soul power converging from all directions, restoring the Sword Sovereign’s remnant soul.
This place was a graveyard, the true Land of the Buried Gods, where the gods of the human race were buried.
Suddenly, Rexxus looked towards another side of the graveyard, where there was dense black mist, making it impossible to see far.
Unable to see, but able to sense that the laws were raging there, and the soul power was like raging waves, in the midst of a great battle.
"Let’s go take a look!"
Lin Moyu had some guesses, but still wanted to see it with his own eyes.
Rexxus approached and finally saw clearly.
A group of remnant souls were engaged in a great battle. The scale of the remnant soul battle could not be as large as before, but it was still intense, even more tragic.
The remnant souls of humans and deities were fighting fiercely against a vast number of remnant souls of insects and wild beasts.
The number of human and deity remnant souls was scarce, only a few hundred.
But the other side had thousands upon thousands, completely overwhelming the human and deity remnant souls in numbers.
Besides the remnant souls of insects and wild beasts, there were also many corpses like Rexxus that had died but were still being used as puppets by the insect race.
The humans and deities were surrounded, clearly at a disadvantage, yet they did not retreat even half a step, fighting desperately.
Lin Moyu seemed to see a reflection of the great battle from ancient times, equally tragic.
Under the premise of having no hope, the humans and deities, with astonishing willpower, managed to gain the final victory against all odds.
"The battle of remnant souls here is a reflection of that time!"
Lin Moyu felt moved, his heart inexplicably stirred.
That battle back then was truly too difficult.
Back then, even though they knew they were outmatched and had been ambushed, the humans and deities joined forces, awakening the will of the world, and fought to the death against the foreign races.
Even after perishing, this battle did not end.
Their bodies may have perished, but their souls did not.
The remnant souls, carrying their final beliefs, continued to battle endlessly.
"You’ve all suffered enough, let me take over the rest."
Lin Moyu sighed deeply, then flicked his finger, causing a dramatic change in the world.
The Undying World descended, and the Eye of the Undead opened in the sky.
Lin Moyu entered the Eye of the Undead and began targeting the remnant souls of the insect race and wild beasts for slaughter.
These super god level remnant souls were powerful, even capable of slaying half-step super gods.
But against the Eye of the Undead, it was like they had met their natural enemy, with no resistance at all.
The remnant souls were slaughtered, and the insect-controlled corpses flew up, trying to shatter the Eye of the Undead.
But the Undead Legion had already taken the lead, blocking their attacks in front of the Eye of the Undead.
Rexxus also joined the army, breathing out scorching dragon’s breath, constantly roaring, "Kill you, these lowly existences!"
More Undead Legions appeared around Lin Moyu, charging into the black mist to join the army.
Since they had taken action, they would do it decisively, using thunderous methods to annihilate them.
