**Chapter 1585: Establishing His Own Rune System**

Lin Moyu asked about the result, and the old man answered about the process. Sometimes, the result is very important. But many times, the process is equally crucial. Sometimes the result is predetermined, and no matter how much effort is put in, the result may not be good. But if no effort is made, the result will almost certainly be bad. Isn’t everyone striving for a good result?

Lin Moyu reflected on himself, knowing that he was in such a situation. He was working hard to become stronger, strong enough to change everything, to defy fate. But could he really do it? He wasn’t sure, not at all. He could only give his all in the process. But the final result was really hard to say.

The runes of the great world are strong, the ultimate goal pursued by everyone in the great world. But even the runes of the great world are still broken; they encountered a more powerful and terrifying force. Even the runes of the great world cannot control their own result. So Lin Moyu’s goal was very high and grand; he wanted to surpass the runes of the great world, to truly control all results.

He gathered all the rune materials he could find, starting from the most basic free materials, reading them bit by bit. Later, he found some materials that required points to access, and he bought them all, spending points to acquire them. There were many rune materials, costing nearly ten million points. But he was wealthy, with assets exceeding 700 million points. Ten million points were just a drop in the bucket.

In the Sea of Laws in the Divine City, others had to spend 100,000 points every day to train. If they trained here for 100 days, that would be 10 million points. This was not a small amount. Many God Kings couldn’t come up with 10 million points. After all, with the 100 times time acceleration, 10 million points were well worth it. Compared to the Time House, the time spent in the Sea of Laws could accelerate the understanding of laws without consuming real lifespan, offering many benefits. Most God Kings who came here to train experienced both pain and joy.

As for Lin Moyu, he didn’t need to spend any points. He had a total of 3,500 days of training time in the Human Emperor training ground, meaning he could stay in the Sea of Laws for 3,500 days without spending any points. 3,500 days in the Human Emperor Network was nearly ten years, equivalent to 35 days in the real world. After repeatedly receiving training time rewards from the Human Emperor training ground, Lin Moyu had never had the chance to use them. This time, he could use all the time. For the remaining time, he could choose to use points. As for the Divine City merits, he would avoid using them if possible.

As time passed, Lin Moyu absorbed a vast amount of knowledge related to runes. In his mind, he gradually established a complete rune system. This was a system formed entirely based on his own understanding, self-taught from existing materials without any guidance. The system might be imperfect, but it bore Lin Moyu’s own imprint, different from anyone else’s. Imperfections didn’t matter; as Lin Moyu’s research on runes deepened and his vision broadened, most imperfections would be corrected.

During the process of establishing the rune system, Lin Moyu constantly had insights. Strangely, Lin Moyu felt a sense of déjà vu, not towards a specific rune but towards every rune. It was as if he had seen these runes somewhere before. He slowly raised his finger and drew a rune in the air. This was the most basic rune, representing the most basic spell: Flame Spell.

In the small world, there was a profession called Elemental Mage. Elemental Mages had a skill called Fireball Spell. The Flame Spell was an evolution of the Fireball Spell, a higher-level product of the skill transforming into a spell. In the small world, the Flame Spell was an impressive spell. Its power could compare to divine spells. A single Flame Spell could evaporate and burn mountains, rivers, and seas. But from the perspective of the great world, the Flame Spell was really weak. At the True God level, it was basically unused, just a small spell for the Super God realm to play with.

Lin Moyu wrote his first rune, a seemingly simple “fire” character. Although it was a basic rune, not everyone could write it. It required not only form but also spirit. When Lin Moyu wrote the rune, he infused it with his spirit. The soul power of the Other Shore realm flowed like a stream from Lin Moyu’s finger into the rune. The rune was successfully written, and the fire rune turned into a fireball, shooting into the sky.

Boom!

A layer of crimson fire clouds suddenly appeared above the Sea of Laws. Countless flames churned in the clouds, as if they could fall at any moment. The fire clouds emitted an astonishing aura, surpassing the True God realm and reaching the God King level. Many people who were training were startled, looking at the crimson fire clouds above the Sea of Laws with suspicion.

Lin Moyu didn’t expect that just drawing the simplest basic rune would cause such a commotion. But the rune was already activated, and he couldn’t stop it unless he used a stronger force to disperse the crimson fire clouds.

At this moment, the old man not far from him gently tugged the fishing rod. The Sea of Laws gently shook, and the crimson fire clouds were instantly dispersed. The crimson fire clouds shattered like bubbles, disappearing as if they had never appeared. Many people returned to their training state.

Lin Moyu breathed a sigh of relief and bowed to the old man, “Thank you, Senior.”

The old man shook his head, “Don’t try this in the Sea of Laws.”

Lin Moyu understood, “I understand, Senior.”

Lin Moyu realized that the Sea of Laws was a place for training, not for experimenting with spells. Especially his runes, which were drawn with the soul of the Other Shore realm. The same rune, when drawn by him, had far greater power than others. Putting away the thought of testing other runes, Lin Moyu checked the time. From the moment he entered the Human Emperor training ground and came to the Sea of Laws, 3,000 days had passed. Although only 30 days had passed in the real world, his consciousness in the Human Emperor Network had truly experienced 3,000 days. Nearly nine years had passed in the blink of an eye; indeed, there is no time in cultivation. The basic rune system was established, and he had his own understanding of runes. He had even mastered most of the basic runes. In other words, his foundation was solid.

To further study runes, he could either find a teacher or join a sect or family proficient in runes. Of course, he could also self-study. But self-study required a lot of materials, some of which were not easily obtainable. The Human Emperor Network had such materials, but they required Divine City merits to exchange. Besides that, Lin Moyu had another path. He had the “Fuyu” given by Elder Xu, which he could continue to study. The runes recorded in “Fuyu” were more advanced than basic runes.

In Lin Moyu’s rune system, he divided runes into three levels. The lowest level he called basic runes, like the Flame Spell he had just drawn. The runes recorded in “Fuyu” belonged to high-level runes. The rune fragments seen in the Poison Bee Secret Realm were called ancient runes. With his current ability, he could start practicing high-level runes, but he was still far from ancient runes. Lin Moyu spent another day carefully reviewing all the rune knowledge before truly stopping. He didn’t continue studying “Fuyu” but instead took out the materials he had obtained from Hu Tian and Bai Xiao to start researching the power of belief. At the same time, he bought all the available materials on the power of belief from the Human Emperor Network. The entire process was the same as studying runes.
