Chapter 2088: Saint Sigil Heavenly Venerable’s Sigil Sword

Lin Moyu flew over, but didn’t get too close, maintaining a distance of over 10,000 kilometers.

The sigil sword was very fast, able to cross this distance in an instant. Lin Moyu was extremely cautious, ready to teleport away at any moment.

He had fought against Other Shore realm powerhouses before, but this was his first time facing an Other Shore realm treasure.

The sigil sword wasn’t large, but its power was immense. Even if the undead army acted as a meat shield, it would likely be easily pierced through.

Lin Moyu wasn’t sure if the golden sword could block it.

Most likely it couldn’t, at best it could hold out for a while. Lasting 10 seconds would be considered good.

Even from over 10,000 kilometers away, Lin Moyu could feel the sharpness of the sigil sword.

Within the sword light, the figure of Saint Sigil Heavenly Venerable appeared.

It was another soul fragment.

Lin Moyu wondered if Saint Sigil Heavenly Venerable’s soul was inexhaustible, leaving fragment after fragment.

Saint Sigil Heavenly Venerable smiled at Lin Moyu, “You’re quite impressive, able to come here at just Divine Venerable rank 3.”

“It seems you’ve obtained all the inheritances I left before.”

“But the difficulty of this inheritance is not small!”

He spoke as if the previous inheritances had been easy.

But Lin Moyu only thought this to himself, not saying it out loud.

Saint Sigil Heavenly Venerable was eccentric, better not to mock him.

Saint Sigil Heavenly Venerable said, “In the previous inheritances, you learned some basic knowledge of sigils, and also learned how to use sigils to set up arrays.”

“Being able to come here shows you not only have excellent comprehension suitable for the path of sigils, but your combat power must not be weak either.”

“This time there’s no need to solve puzzles. You just need to fight. If you can defeat the sigil sword I left behind, you can obtain the inheritance and rewards.”

“But I warn you in advance, if you’re killed by the sigil sword, you can only blame your bad luck!”

One moment he was speaking kindly like a benevolent elder selecting a successor.

The next moment he spoke such cold words, devoid of any emotion.

Saint Sigil Heavenly Venerable’s temperament was truly extremely eccentric.

After speaking, Saint Sigil Heavenly Venerable lightly tapped his finger, and a sigil automatically flew out.

Lin Moyu had a bad feeling, but it was already too late.

Countless sigils appeared in the starry sky, densely packed, forming a huge array.

This array was extremely large, the largest sigil array Lin Moyu had ever seen.

Saint Sigil Heavenly Venerable said, “I have sealed off 1 billion kilometers of space. You cannot leave until you defeat the sigil sword.”

Lin Moyu was cursing in his heart. He knew Saint Sigil Heavenly Venerable wasn’t lying – the space within 1 billion kilometers had indeed been sealed off.

It wasn’t like sealing space. He could still freely use his space rules.

Saint Sigil Heavenly Venerable had surrounded 1 billion kilometers of space like a cage, not allowing Lin Moyu to escape.

Other than that, there were no other restrictions.

As Saint Sigil Heavenly Venerable finished speaking, the sigil sword flew over with incredible speed, arriving in front of Lin Moyu almost instantly.

Lin Moyu instinctively took a step and teleported 400 million kilometers away.

Just as his figure appeared, his expression changed drastically – the sigil sword was already right in front of him again.

“So fast!”

Lin Moyu was shocked. The sigil sword’s speed far exceeded his expectations.

He teleported again without thinking, but each time he finished teleporting, the sigil sword was right in front of him.

“Impossible. Something must be wrong. It can’t be this fast.”

Lin Moyu knew he teleported to different locations each time. No matter how fast the sigil sword was, it should take some time to find his position.

But as soon as he finished teleporting, the sigil sword would appear in front of him. This was very abnormal.

Saint Sigil Heavenly Venerable’s voice rang out, “My sigil treasure has the ability to track and break through space. Even with your space rules, you can’t escape.”

“Damn it…” Lin Moyu cursed in his heart.

Saint Sigil Heavenly Venerable truly left no loopholes. The sigil sword possessed both tracking and space-breaking abilities.

And Saint Sigil Heavenly Venerable’s method was extremely skillful. Lin Moyu hadn’t detected being locked onto at all.

“It’s probably not locking on, but marking me.”

“The sigil sword won’t give me a chance to remove the mark. It’s not a soul lock, so the Wings of the Undead won’t work.”

“With its space-breaking ability, I can teleport, but so can the sigil sword. So no matter how I teleport, the sigil sword can arrive instantly.”

After figuring it out, Lin Moyu teleported once more but didn’t dodge again. The golden sword appeared in his hand, swinging fiercely to clash with the sigil sword.

With a bang, Lin Moyu was sent flying thousands of kilometers by an enormous force, unable to stop.

The sigil sword was also knocked away, but after spinning a few times, it flew back rapidly.

Lin Moyu swung his sword again, forming a golden shield.

The sigil sword struck the golden shield, causing countless cracks to appear. The flying sword was knocked back again.

Lin Moyu looked at the golden sword. A notch had appeared on the blade from the collision.

The outer layer of the golden sword was formed from the golden rule by Heavenly Saint Venerable. Though sturdy, it was clearly not as strong as the sigil sword.

The sigil sword flew back and crashed into the golden shield again. The shield shattered with a boom.

It was even worse than Lin Moyu had expected. The shield only blocked two attacks.

But it also bought Lin Moyu some time. Large numbers of skeleton divine generals appeared in the starry sky, forming a skeleton meat shield.

Lin Moyu knew that just dodging wouldn’t work. He had to counterattack.

The skeleton divine generals all swung their swords at the sigil sword, filling the starry sky with pure white sword qi.

The sigil sword burst out of the white sword qi, its momentum undiminished as it stabbed towards Lin Moyu.

The sword qi from the skeleton divine generals had no effect on it at all.

The skeleton divine generals blocked the sigil sword’s path. Their golden armor sigils glowed brightly, interwoven to form hundreds of layers of defense. Each layer of golden armor sigils could block a strike from a peak Divine Venerable, but Lin Moyu knew it was far from enough against an Other Shore realm being.

There had been precedents before. Against attacks from Other Shore realm beings, the golden armor sigils were truly as fragile as paper.

Lin Moyu sometimes lamented that the enemies he faced were always too powerful, greatly reducing the effectiveness of the golden armor sigils.

In fact, as long as it wasn’t against Other Shore realm beings, the power of the golden armor sigils would make any Divine Venerable despair.

The sigil sword instantly pierced through hundreds of layers of golden armor sigils, its speed not slowing at all.

Countless skeleton divine generals were pierced by the sigil sword, collapsing on the spot.

The sigil sword’s power was extreme, even more terrifying than the Cosmic Tree.

Lin Moyu’s heart stirred, and the death dragon knight legion appeared.

The legion rulers launched a fatal strike at the sigil sword. Their battle blades accurately struck the sigil sword, but it had no effect at all. The sigil sword shattered the battle blades and pierced through the legion rulers’ bodies.

Even the legion rulers with their powerful defense were pierced by the sigil sword, shattering on the spot.

Lin Moyu summoned the Skull Kings. The skull throne appeared wreathed in raging flames.

The skull throne was enormous, just blocking Lin Moyu’s front.

The sigil sword stabbed into the skull throne with a bang and was knocked away.

Lin Moyu understood, “As expected!”

He knew the bone swords in the Skull Kings’ hands were incredibly sturdy.

And the bone swords were transformed from the skull throne, so the skull throne must be equally sturdy.

Today’s test proved it. Even the sigil sword couldn’t damage it.

The sigil sword could notch the golden sword, yet was helpless against the skull throne. Clearly the skull throne’s sturdiness surpassed even the golden sword.

Lin Moyu’s lips curled in a slight smile. He knew he now stood undefeated.

If even the skull throne didn’t work, Lin Moyu was prepared to use the Calamity Scepter. Now it seemed that might not be necessary.

Off to the side, Saint Sigil Heavenly Venerable frowned slightly, squinting at the skull throne, “That looks a bit familiar…”
