**Chapter 946: The Origin of the Secret Realm, Humanity Cannot Be Bullied**
The term "魑魅" refers to spirits and monsters in the mountains and forests. The name given by humans is not without meaning. Since it is called the "魑魅 Secret Realm," it must have both mountains and forests. Forests had appeared several times before, and now, finally, a mountain had appeared.
Lin Moyu felt a powerful soul within the mountain. This soul was wantonly spreading, filling the entire space. The soul transformed into various shapes, intertwining with the laws, forming some strange "life forms."
"No wonder similar life-like things are born in the secret realm; it’s you causing trouble."
Laws are just laws and generally do not give birth to life. Unless it is a law like the Law of Life, which also requires some special conditions to achieve. The Law of Death only brings death; how could it give birth to life forms? But the soul hidden in the mountain provided Lin Moyu with the answer.
The fragments of this soul scattered outside, intertwining with the Law of Death, eventually forming special life forms that seemed to possess life. These special life forms also had the ability to launch soul attacks.
In Lin Moyu’s eyes, gray and white energies flickered and intertwined, constantly jumping. He tried to see the essence of this mountain. Peeling away layers of mist, he finally saw something deeper.
Beneath the surface of the mountain was a massive gray stone. The gray stone contained a vast amount of the Law of Death, which was the source of all the gray stones. The soul resided within the gray stone, intertwining with the Law of Death.
For so many years, it had been continuously emitting soul fragments without disintegrating, indicating its strength. Considering the task’s restriction of not causing significant damage to the secret realm, it likely referred to this soul and the mountain.
The mystery was now fully solved. The massive gray stone within the mountain and the soul within the gray stone were the core of the 魑魅 Secret Realm and must not be touched. If they were destroyed, the secret realm would cease to exist. For humanity, losing a source of gray stones would be a significant loss.
Since these two could not be touched, Lin Moyu turned his attention elsewhere. "This forest should be movable."
The forest on the mountain was also shrouded in the Law of Death. Eliminating the special life forms within should also produce 魑魅. After dealing with the 魑魅, gray stones could be obtained.
Since he had already reached this point, there was no reason to let it go. With a thought, the undead army swarmed out, rushing towards the forest. The forest erupted in chaos, winds howled in the sky, and the Law of Death fell like lightning, striking the undead.
The Law of Death was accompanied by intense soul attacks. Unfortunately, soul attacks had no effect on the undead, who were inherently undead beings. The attack power of the Law of Death was only at Super God Level 7, which also couldn’t harm the undead.
The undead army swept through the forest unimpeded, quickly eliminating the special life forms within. Once they were all cleared, the entire forest rapidly decayed. All the Law of Death converged, transforming into a giant 魑魅 over 500 meters tall.
**[Advanced 魑魅]**
**[Level: Super God Level]**
**[Characteristics: Composed of the Law of Death, filled with death energy, skilled in soul attacks, weak in defense]**
The previous eight spaces had all contained elementary 魑魅. The one before him now had become an advanced 魑魅. Its level had reached Super God Level 8, and because it was skilled in soul attacks, it was even more troublesome than an ordinary Super God Level 8.
Its only weakness was its relatively weak defense. If a Super God Level 8 with strong soul defense came, they could kill it. But if the soul defense was lacking, even a Super God Level 9 might be in danger.
According to Lin Moyu’s understanding, ordinary people taking this task would not be able to reach this point. Time would not allow it. If they could truly reach this point, their strength would be more than sufficient.
This task could indeed only be defined as medium danger, far from high danger. Lin Moyu’s heart moved, and he lightly pointed his finger. The skeletal god generals charged forward, surrounding the advanced 魑魅 and starting the slaughter.
Sword energy crisscrossed, falling on the 魑魅 like raindrops. It was beaten to a pulp. Even with its weak defense, it was still at Super God Level 8. The skeletal god generals could harm it, but killing it would take some time.
Lin Moyu was not in a hurry and didn’t even pay attention to the battlefield. His gaze penetrated the mountain, looking at the gray stone within. The vast Law of Death emanating from the gray stone was comparable to the stars in the Sea of Laws.
Lin Moyu was not very interested in the gray stone itself but was very interested in the soul within it. Why would a soul reside within, filled with the Law of Death, which would destroy any living being? A living soul residing within seemed like seeking death to him.
The soul within the gray stone seemed to notice Lin Moyu and emitted intense fluctuations. The entire secret realm began to shake violently. Lin Moyu saw a star rampaging through the starry sky, shattering countless stars. The fragments of the shattered stars fell onto its body and were absorbed by it. Billions of living beings on the stars died, and all their souls were absorbed by it.
It continued to rampage through the starry sky, shattering more and more stars, with countless beings dying. Its size grew larger and stronger. The aura of laws appeared on its body, the Law of Death. Lin Moyu realized that this star had consciousness and a soul. It deliberately collided with other stars, using them and their beings to enhance itself.
Its laws grew stronger, its realm higher, breaking through to True God. It shattered many galaxies, one star after another, moving faster than light. Eventually, it broke through to God King.
The Law of Death roared in the starry sky. Its main body was powerful, mastering a second-tier law, making it a strong presence among all God Kings. Until it entered the territory of humanity, shattering two of humanity’s life stars.
A majestic figure appeared before it, stopping it with one hand. A human god sovereign intervened.
"Beast!" Two words like a judgment decided its fate. It resisted madly, but against the god sovereign, its resistance was futile. Finally, it was shattered, broken into pieces.
The human god sovereign did not truly kill it but erased its consciousness. It was refined into a gray stone, with its soul sealed inside. Then it was placed in a secret realm, becoming the source of gray stones, continuously providing gray stones and the Law of Death for humanity.
Lin Moyu knew that its consciousness was erased back then, but its memory remained. Anyone who came here and could sense its soul would see this scene. This was to tell everyone that humanity cannot be bullied, and those who harm humanity will be punished severely, possibly for countless years.
Lin Moyu felt the faith of humanity from this and resonated with it.
