Lin Moyu continued executing his plan, waging relentless hit-and-run warfare across the Dragonkind World.

Unable to locate his true body, the Dragon Emperor had no choice but to issue a sweeping order: all Dragonkind were to gather.

It was the only viable way to counter Lin Moyu’s hit-and-run tactics.

Aside from that, with his intelligence, he simply couldn’t think of a better solution.

The Dragonkind moved quickly. Using teleportation formations between cities, they converged toward the emperor city at the heart of the Dragonkind World.

Fortunately, the emperor city was vast enough. Even if it had to accommodate the entire Dragonkind, it wouldn’t be a major problem.

Any overflow could be settled in encampments beyond the emperor city.

When Lin Moyu arrived outside a city, a trace of doubt crossed his face.

The defensive formation was still active, yet the city itself was eerily empty. The Dragonkind had already withdrawn.

Lin Moyu’s eyes flickered as realization dawned.

“Not particularly clever, but undeniably effective.”

“They should all have gone to the emperor city.”

He knew that once the Dragonkind gathered their forces, his hit-and-run tactics would lose their effectiveness.

His plan of leveling up by hunting the Dragonkind had come to an end.

Checking his EXP, he saw he had reached level 81 (95%), just 5% short of leveling up.

To stop now felt a little frustrating.

“Only 5% left. I’ll gain it from the emperor city.”

“One final battle… I might even bring down a few more Dragon Kings.”

There was another reason he pressed on: the Genesis Scepter was nearly fully restored.

Having made his decision, Lin Moyu flew toward the heart of the Dragonkind World, where the emperor city and the Dragon Emperor’s Palace stood.

Meanwhile, the power of faith continued to flow toward him, forming a warm current.

His soul rank rose gradually yet consistently.

The sensation was solid and grounding, similar to the effect of the Nine-Colored Dragon Soul Crystal.

“Beyond strengthening the soul, I haven’t discovered any other uses for the power of faith.”

“But as one of the human race’s fundamental powers, it shouldn’t be limited to just this.”

Lin Moyu understood that the “human race” Antares spoke of referred to the humans of the greater world.

In the greater world, the human race was a major race no weaker than the Dragon Race and the Demon Race.

For the power of faith to serve as one of the fundamental powers of such a race, it had to possess extraordinary properties.

While Lin Moyu advanced, the Human World erupted into chaos.

“The Dragonkind cities are empty!”

“Where did they all go? Godly General Lin must know!”

“I get it! They’re terrified of him; they’ve gathered together and don’t dare stay scattered anymore!”

“Haha! One man forced the entire Dragonkind into retreat. Godly General Lin is incredible!”

“Look! So many Dragonkind!”

“That city… it’s enormous! And that Dragon statue in the center! It must be thousands of meters tall!”

“That must be the Dragonkind emperor city!”

Across the projections, an overwhelming sight unfolded.

Countless Dragonkind had gathered in a single city.

They filled every corner—inside and outside the city, in the sky and on the ground.

The sheer density of their numbers sealed the city tight, as if not even a drop of water could pass through.

Outside the city, encampments were being constructed. The Dragonkind were clearly preparing for a prolonged standoff.

As long as Lin Moyu remained alive, they dared not disperse, fearful of being hunted down one by one.

…

Lin Moyu arrived outside the Dragonkind emperor city, suppressing his aura and concealing himself dozens of kilometers away.

The emperor city had stood for over 1,000 years in the Dragonkind World. It was a vast, magnificent city of awe-inspiring architecture.

At its heart rose a Dragon statue, at least 3,000 meters tall.

Its appearance was unmistakable. It was identical to the Dragon Emperor.

Lin Moyu let out a silent sneer, “How narcissistic!”

From afar, he studied the Dragonkind emperor city.

Strangely, no defensive formation was active. Whether it had yet to be activated or didn’t exist at all, he couldn’t tell.

There wasn’t even a single Magic Crystal.

Perhaps they were overconfident. Or perhaps, if an enemy had already reached the emperor city, any formation would be nothing more than a futile delay.

Keeping his distance, Lin Moyu circled the emperor city in silence, scouting its perimeter.

From previous battles, he had gathered extensive data on Dragonkind formations through his undead army.

By deliberately deploying undead troops far away from the battlefield, he had tested the limits of the formations’ range.

Now, his analysis was complete. Their range spanned 100 kilometers.

He located the Dragon Emperor at the very center of the emperor city, seated upon a magnificent throne atop the Dragon statue.

With the Dragon Emperor as the core, the formation’s influence extended in a 50-kilometer radius.

The emperor city itself stretched over 40 kilometers in radius, leaving only about 10 kilometers beyond its walls under the formation’s reach.

Lin Moyu began to plan how to attack…

…

Antares projected images of the Dragon emperor city to the entire Human World.

Across humanity, countless hearts clenched as they witnessed the scene.

“Godly General Lin won’t be in danger, will he? There are countless Dragonkind!”

“That’s not all! Look at the one in the sky!”

“That’s the Dragon Emperor… terrifying.”

“There are so many Dragon Kings beside him. More than we have God-level powerhouses.”

“Godly General Lin, please be careful!”

“If it’s too much, just retreat! You’ve already humiliated the Dragonkind enough!”

“Yes, you’ve done more than enough! You’re not alone! We can fight this war together!”

Countless prayers rose in silence. At the same time, battle intent ignited across humanity. Countless people longed to join him in a crusade against the Dragonkind.

The faith of the humans burned once more—unyielding, unbroken.

After circling the emperor city twice, Lin Moyu finalized his plan.

He withdrew, retreating over 100 kilometers until he vanished completely from the Dragonkind’s view.

Only then did the undead army emerge.

At his command, the entire undead army spread out, forming a vast ring 200 kilometers in diameter, encircling the emperor city.

Lin Moyu remained hidden more than 100 kilometers away, directing the battle through the vision of the undead army.

Since his third class awakening at level 70, the distance limit on his control for the undead troops no longer seemed to exist.

If a limit still existed, he had yet to find it.

Even from over 100 kilometers away, he could control them freely.

An invisible bond linked them, one neither law nor formation could block.

Even if trapped within a formation full of law, he could recall them with a single thought.

As the undead army took position, Lin Moyu took a deep breath.

His soul force flowed slowly.

This battle belonged to the undead army. He was merely the hidden commander behind the scenes.

The undead army moved. The 400 Bone Dragons plunged from the sky. The Headless Knights followed in their wake, with the skeletal troops surging behind like a tidal wave.

Among their ranks, Elemental Liches spread their rings of light, amplifying the undead army’s lethality.

Though only moderately effective against the Dragonkind Battle Generals, these rings of light were devastating to the Dragonkind below level 70.

Lin Moyu divided the undead army into 10 divisions, each numbering roughly 30,000, evenly distributed around the emperor city.

The first to attack were four divisions on the east and south sides of the emperor city.

Alarms rang across the sky. Every Dragonkind turned their attention toward the advancing undead troops.

“He has actually come!”

The Dragon Emperor suddenly rose from his throne, killing intent surging into the air. 𝚏𝐫𝚎𝗲𝕨𝐞𝐛𝕟𝚘𝐯𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝗺

In an instant, clouds churned in the sky and winds howled.

A colossal Divine Dragon phantom manifested in the air.
