It wasn’t cowardice. It was an acknowledgment that his current strength was still insufficient to handle every danger.
The deep layer contained forbidden zones. They might not kill him outright, but there was a high chance of becoming trapped.
Even if Antares could rescue him, doing so would likely come at a cost.
Antares appeared to be bound by certain restrictions and could not act freely within the deep layer.
Soon, the Transcendent God-level Dreadbeast reached the location where the Elemental Giant Leader had disappeared.
Then, it disappeared as well.
It vanished without a sound, completely losing all connection.
“Strange.”
Lin Moyu sent another Transcendent God-level Dreadbeast over.
This time, instead of heading directly to the point of disappearance, it stopped roughly a thousand meters away.
From above, the location appeared to be nothing more than an ordinary empty plain.
As the Dreadbeast advanced slowly, nothing happened.
But the moment it crossed the thousand-meter threshold and entered the incident area, it vanished without a trace.
“A forbidden zone?”
Lin Moyu’s curiosity was stirred.
Whether this truly was a forbidden zone could only be confirmed in person.
After all, seeing through the Dreadbeast’s perspective was fundamentally different from observing directly.
His Deathwings fluttered, and he shot toward the location.
By now, the map of the deep layer in his mind had become fairly detailed.
Using his original entry point as the center, Lin Moyu had divided and marked the deep layer according to elemental law density.
His classification was meticulous.
The safest regions were designated level 90, increasing progressively through level 98.
Beyond those lay the level 99 half-step Transcendent God-level zones, followed by true Transcendent God-level territories.
A Transcendent God-level zone meant exactly what it implied: an area dangerous even to Transcendent God-level beings.
Lin Moyu believed his map was likely the most detailed deep-layer map possessed by the humans. freewёbn૦νeɭ.com
Most human experts operated only within level 90-level 95 zones after entering the deep layer.
Few ventured into level 96 regions, let alone the even more dangerous higher-level areas.
The area Lin Moyu had recently entered was level 96.
The Elemental Giant territory was level 97.
The Burial Ground of Gods sat at the border between level 99 and Transcendent God-level.
That was the place where the Dragon Emperor had fallen.
The area where the Elemental Giant leader had disappeared lay northwest of his current position, also near the boundary between level 99 and Transcendent God-level territory.
While categorizing areas by elemental law density wasn’t perfectly precise, it was accurate enough.
Several beats of his Deathwings carried him across more than a thousand kilometers, and he appeared at the edge of the incident site.
Hovering in the air a hundred meters from the location, he looked down.
Everything appeared exactly as it had through the Dreadbeast’s eyes.
The land was peaceful and quiet, seemingly completely ordinary. There was no visible sign of danger.
And in truth, Lin Moyu sensed no danger.
He slowly released his soul force, allowing it to spread outward and act as his eyes.
Sometimes the soul perceived what ordinary vision could not.
The instant his soul force reached the hundred-meter mark, it suddenly met resistance, like an invisible wall stood in its way.
No matter how he pushed, his soul force could not pass through.
He extended his soul force upward and rose alongside it.
The wall stretched endlessly into the sky.
Even after ascending over a hundred thousand meters, he still could not find its end.
Lin Moyu abandoned the idea of entering from above and began examining the invisible wall from the side.
He knew it couldn’t truly extend forever. There had to be an edge.
Reality, however, proved otherwise.
He circled the structure and eventually returned to where he started.
The invisible wall enclosed the region in a perfect circle roughly one hundred kilometers in diameter.
It isolated this entire section of heaven and earth like a massive formation, forming an independent world.
“A formation… or something else?”
Guessing alone wouldn’t reveal the answer.
Lin Moyu raised a finger, and the Undead Eye snapped open.
Yet even the phantom Undeath World was blocked outside the invisible wall.
“It doesn’t seem to stop physical matter… only energy.”
Lin Moyu shifted to the Undead Eye’s perspective, but it made no difference.
The Undead Eye could not launch an attack either, indicating there were no souls within the wall.
And without souls, there were no living beings.
Then a Skeletal Divine Warrior appeared beside Lin Moyu and advanced with rattling footsteps.
Undead differed from the resurrected.
If a resurrected encountered danger, the result was complete annihilation, reduced to ash and smoke
In Lin Moyu’s view, this simply meant a simple loss of connection, or an abrupt disappearance.
This made it impossible for him to determine whether the resurrected was dead or alive.
Skeletons, however, were different.
If a skeleton died, it would trigger the Undeath Undeadpassive law art. Lin Moyu would sense it immediately. freēwēbnovel.com
The Skeletal Divine Warrior vanished from sight as it crossed the boundary.
The invisible wall blocked souls and all kinds of elemental laws, yet strangely, physical matter passed through unhindered.
The moment the skeleton stepped inside, Lin Moyu lost all connection to it.
But Undeath Undead didn’t activate, meaning the Skeletal Divine Warrior had not encountered danger.
Before sending it in, Lin Moyu had issued a simple command: continue walking forward.
He trusted the skeleton would obey.
Time passed.
Still, Undeath Undead didn’t activate.
Still uneasy, Lin Moyu summoned a batch of skeletons and sent them in from different directions.
Half a day of testing passed, yet Undeath Undead still showed no response.
When he attempted to summon another Skeletal Divine Warrior, he discovered the summon limit had already been reached.
At that moment, Lin Moyu was nearly certain. There was no danger beyond the invisible wall.
Otherwise, thousands of skeletons couldn’t possibly all have remained unharmed.
“Fortune favors the bold.”
Taking a deep breath, Lin Moyu stepped through.
The instant he crossed the threshold, his vision exploded into chaos.
Countless colors twisted before him—manifestations of laws themselves.
Every color represented a different law.
Some he recognized. Many he did not.
There was no order, only utter chaos.
Then chaotic elemental laws and disorderly auras enveloped his entire body.
Lin Moyu suddenly froze, as though time itself had stopped.
Chaotic elemental laws seeped into his body.
Unable to move, he could only endure.
His mind raced, searching desperately for an explanation, for any answer at all.
But there was none.
Ten full minutes passed before sensation finally returned to his fingertips.
Gradually, feeling spread through the rest of his body.
Another ten minutes later, Lin Moyu found he could move again, though every motion met immense resistance, as if he were wading through a quagmire.
The quagmire was the omnipresent elemental laws.
As he adjusted, Lin Moyu sensed the changes within himself. The elemental laws that had entered his body seemed to be helping him adapt to this world.
A tremor ran through him as realization struck, excitement surging through him.
“This is the world core… The world core has formed an independent space.”
“These chaotic elemental laws are remnants left behind after a former world was destroyed.”
“This is another world, an independent world.”
“To think I’d find it so easily after searching everywhere in vain.”
Lin Moyu clenched his fists, his heartbeat accelerating.
No wonder Antares had said that once he saw it, he would immediately understand.
And he had been right. It truly was so.
