Catastrophic necromancer

Chapter 391: The Ancestral Land Will Open, Bathing and Changing Clothes

Yan Kuangsheng laughed out loud, “I knew you couldn’t hide it from me, yet you still tried.”

Bai Yiyuan said, “Did you think I didn’t know? Xiaoyu, the ancestral land of Genesis Academy is indeed about to open. Since Dean Mo is here, he can explain it in detail.”

When Lin Moyu saw Mo Xinghe, he had already guessed that it was about the ancestral land opening.

Mo Xinghe said, “The ancestral land should open soon. The list has been finalized long ago.”

“Next, I’ll tell you what to pay attention to after entering the ancestral land.”

“Wait a moment.” Just as he was about to speak, Ning Tairan interrupted Mo Xinghe.

Everyone looked at Ning Tairan with puzzled expressions.

Ning Tairan said, “Let Yiyi listen too.”

As he spoke, he flicked his finger, and a gentle breeze landed on Ning Yiyi.

Ning Yiyi, who was sleeping, rubbed her eyes and woke up.

Seeing so many people, she jumped down with a cry, her pretty face slightly flushed with embarrassment.

She glared at Lin Moyu with a reproachful look, as if to say, “Why didn’t you wake me up with so many people here?”

Mo Xinghe chuckled and explained the things to pay attention to in the ancestral land of Genesis Academy.

The ancestral land of Genesis Academy opens once every five years.

Each time, the number of people who can enter is extremely limited.

Genesis Academy occupies 10 slots, while Creation God Academy and Flame Emperor Academy each have 3 slots.

The royal family and the military each have 2 slots.

The various major families in the empire can each obtain one slot.

In total, there are only about 30 slots.

Although Genesis Academy is not ranked as highly as Creation God Academy, many people still flock to join it, all for the sake of those slots.

However, these slots are extremely precious, with countless eyes watching them.

Even Bai Yiyuan cannot violate the rules.

Bai Yiyuan is a god-level expert, but he doesn’t have a family, so he doesn’t have a slot himself.

That’s why Lin Moyu joined Genesis Academy.

As long as he joins Genesis Academy, with Lin Moyu’s abilities, he is almost certain to obtain a slot.

The Ning family also has one slot, which Ning Tairan directly gave to Ning Yiyi. For this granddaughter, Ning Tairan truly dotes on her to the extreme, considering her first for any good opportunity.

“There are many living beings in the ancestral land. These beings are not aggressive, but remember, you cannot kill them.”

“Near the core of the ancestral land, there are many fruit trees. You can pick and eat the fruits there. Try to eat as many as possible.”

Upon hearing that she could eat, Ning Yiyi’s eyes lit up. “I’m good at this. I can eat a lot. Grandpa Mo, are those fruits delicious? I don’t mind if they’re sour, as long as they’re not bitter.”

Mo Xinghe laughed heartily, “The fruits shouldn’t be unpalatable.”

Lin Moyu had already sensed that there was something special about the fruits, so he continued to ask.

Mo Xinghe said, “Picking and eating the fruits is one of the tests. How many you can eat depends on your own abilities.”

“But remember one thing: do your best, but don’t force yourself.”

“After eating the fruits, you will enter the second stage, the comprehension stage.”

“There will be something for you to comprehend on your own. What exactly you need to comprehend is different each time.”

“I can’t explain it clearly here. You’ll know when you get there.”

“This stage will eliminate most people. Those who pass will proceed to the third stage.”

“There is little information about the third stage. Based on past experiences, it should be related to what you comprehended in the second stage.”

“Those who pass the second stage cannot explain what happened in the third stage when they return.”

Lin Moyu’s heart skipped a beat, and he asked, “Why is that?”

Mo Xinghe shook his head, “At first, we thought there was a problem with their memories, but after careful examination, we found that their memories were not tampered with.”

“So this matter has remained a mystery.”

It seemed that he would have to experience it himself to understand. Lin Moyu pondered for a moment and then asked, “Dean Mo, please continue.”

Mo Xinghe smiled, “That’s all. Very few people can pass the third stage. The few who do cannot explain the fourth stage at all.”

“However, one thing is certain: as long as you don’t kill the living beings you encounter when you first enter the ancestral land, there will be no danger inside.”

Lin Moyu made a note not to kill any living beings he encountered upon entering the ancestral land.

At the same time, he glanced at Ning Yiyi and saw that she was listening attentively, so he felt reassured.

He sincerely thanked Mo Xinghe, “Thank you, Dean Mo. I’ve taken note.”

Mo Xinghe stood up and waved his hand, not accepting Lin Moyu’s gratitude. “General Lin, there’s no need to be so polite. I feel guilty for destroying the dungeon before, causing General Lin to fall into the abyss. This time, I owe General Lin another great favor. If General Lin has any instructions in the future, please feel free to speak up.”

Lin Moyu smiled, “Dean Mo, you’re overstating it. It was all the Demon Worshippers’ doing, not your fault.”

Meng Anwen and Bai Yiyuan had already investigated that incident.

There were also Demon Worshippers infiltrating the military, but fortunately, Lin Moyu had a great stroke of luck.

Not long ago, they thoroughly investigated the military and executed many people.

It caused quite a stir.

Mo Xinghe needed to prepare for the ancestral land, so he left first.

Ning Tairan glared at Lin Moyu, “When you go to the ancestral land, protect Yiyi.”

Lin Moyu said, “Don’t worry, Old Man Ning.”

“Yiyi, go back with your grandfather and prepare.”

Ning Yiyi responded with an “oh” and followed Ning Tairan away, albeit reluctantly.

After Ning Tairan left, Bai Yiyuan, Yan Kuangsheng, and Meng Anwen all looked at Lin Moyu with meaningful expressions.

Even Meng Anwen, who rarely opened his eyes, did so this time.

Their gazes made Lin Moyu feel uncomfortable. “Teacher, did I do something wrong?”

Bai Yiyuan said meaningfully, “You little brat, you’re quite bold to propose to Old Man Ning.”

Yan Kuangsheng chuckled lightly, “It’s only because Old Man Ning is in a good mood these days. If this had happened fifty years ago, he probably would have used a forbidden spell to kill you.”

“That wouldn’t have happened. With Yiyi around, Old Man Ning would have restrained himself no matter what.” Meng Anwen’s voice echoed softly, “Xiaoyu, is that what you were thinking?”

Lin Moyu said, “I didn’t think that much at the time. I saw that Old Man Ning was quite interested in the Beast God’s leg bone, and the idea suddenly occurred to me.”

At that moment, the idea did indeed occur to him suddenly, mainly because of Ning Tairan’s reaction to the Beast God’s leg bone.

Bai Yiyuan laughed heartily, “Your reaction was good. The Beast God’s leg bone is indeed a good thing, and Old Man Ning does need it. However, it’s still not as good as the divine finger bone you brought back.”

Lin Moyu could also see that the divine finger bone contained a trace of vitality, even though he didn’t know how many years had passed, and the flesh and blood aura was more abundant.

Crucially, the Beast God’s leg bone was a bone shed by the Beast God during its transformation, so strictly speaking, it was not a bone from after it became a deity.

Compared to the divine finger bone, it was slightly inferior.

Since he already had the divine finger bone, one item was enough.

So using the Beast God’s leg bone as a proposal gift was perfect.

Lin Moyu asked, “Teacher, have you made any progress in studying the divine finger bone?”

Bai Yiyuan grinned, revealing a smile. Seeing his expression, Lin Moyu knew there must have been some progress.

As long as there was progress, it proved that the divine finger bone was not useless.

Bai Yiyuan said, “Go bathe and change your clothes, make yourself clean.”

Lin Moyu looked at himself and didn’t seem to be dirty.

Although he had been killing in dungeons for over ten days, he had changed his clothes during that time, so his body was still quite fresh.

Compared to when he returned from the Corpse Realm, he was much cleaner.

Yan Kuangsheng said, “You may not feel it, but your aura is currently quite messy, containing the auras of various beasts from the dungeons.”

“Take a good bath, change your clothes, and meditate to dispel the messy aura.”

Meng Anwen added, “The living beings in the ancestral land of Genesis Academy are very sensitive and dislike messy auras.”

Lin Moyu understood, “Disciple understands.”

Back at the academy, Lin Moyu returned to his dorm, bathed and changed clothes, and then sat on his bed to meditate.

His scattered thoughts gradually converged, and his aura began to change.

The messy auras he had picked up from the dungeons were rapidly fading, becoming pure.

Lin Moyu couldn’t sense these auras himself, but since Bai Yiyuan and the others said they existed, they must exist.

The Domain Spirit Stone rotated slowly, absorbing every trace of killing intent from Lin Moyu’s body, leaving none behind.

As he was meditating, his communicator vibrated.

Lin Moyu looked at the communicator with slight surprise, “Why is she sending me a message?”
