Catastrophic necromancer

Chapter 901: Starfire Gold Vein, Starfire Gold Essence

Jiang Jiyuan left with his sister Jiang Jiyue. On the way back, Jiang Jiyue’s emotions had not completely calmed down.

She had been frightened by Lin Moyu’s Skeleton God Warrior.

Clearly just a first-tier super god, yet able to summon a Skeleton God Warrior with the combat power of a fifth-tier super god.

A span of four whole levels.

Lin Moyu’s warning still echoed in her ears. Although a fifth-tier super god was nothing to the Jiang family, Lin Moyu himself made her feel fearful.

Jiang Jiyuan looked at his sister’s figure and sighed lightly, “Now you understand, right? The principle our father often warned us about, that there are always people better than us.”

“Don’t always think that just because you are a descendant of the Jiang family, you are remarkable.”

“In many places, the name of the Jiang family doesn’t carry weight.”

Jiang Jiyue was still stubborn, “I don’t believe he dares to kill me. With the Human Emperor Network, he can’t escape.”

Jiang Jiyuan shook his head and smiled, “You really don’t understand anything. The Jiang family is not omnipotent, and neither is the Human Emperor Network.”

“There are many ways to kill someone while avoiding the Human Emperor Network.”

“And do you think that a first-tier super god, who can have second-level permissions and combat power not inferior to a fifth-tier super god, would not have a powerful backing?”

Jiang Jiyue was suddenly shocked, “Brother, do you mean he also has a big family behind him?”

Jiang Jiyuan laughed again, “Power is not only about family. We are just a god-king family, and even if our entire family united, we wouldn’t be a match for a single god-lord.”

“Even a god-lord might not be able to cultivate such a person.”

A god-lord doesn’t need a family and can easily destroy the Jiang family alone.

But can a god-lord really cultivate someone like Lin Moyu?

Jiang Jiyuan expressed doubt.

Jiang Jiyue’s eyes flickered, and after a moment, she whispered, “I understand. I will be more careful with my words in the future.”

Jiang Jiyuan gently patted her head, his voice filled with affection, “Your potential is stronger than mine, and you can go further in the future. You might even have a chance to enter the Divine City, so don’t let your temperament block your path.”

Lin Moyu watched the two disappear into the starry sky before turning his attention back to the ground.

“He should have noticed it too.”

Lin Moyu’s lips curled slightly. He had seen something earlier, and Jiang Jiyuan should have seen it too.

But Jiang Jiyuan did not reveal it, nor would he tell Jiang Jiyue.

This was considered a favor to Lin Moyu.

Lin Moyu understood, and Jiang Jiyuan knew that Lin Moyu understood.

In the crack of the earth, the flames continued to erupt.

The stars here had been burned by flames for thousands of years, accumulating an unknown amount of energy, and once it erupted, it wouldn’t stop for a short time.

The flames roared, shooting hundreds of meters into the sky, forming a huge pillar of fire.

Especially in the place where the Starfire Gold was buried, there was a large cavity, and the flames were even more intense.

Through the flames, Lin Moyu saw an unusual glow.

It was the glow brought by the Starfire Gold.

Beneath the earth, a considerable amount of Starfire Gold was buried.

There was a Starfire Gold vein here.

Starfire Gold veins are real but not common.

Lin Moyu did not expect to encounter one by chance.

The vein could be large or small. A small one might only have ten thousand pounds of Starfire Gold, while a large one could have a hundred thousand pounds.

If there were indeed a hundred thousand pounds, it could be exchanged for ten thousand points.

Even if it couldn’t be used to upgrade permissions, it would still provide plenty of points for a while.

Points are hard currency, needed for everything in the real world and the Human Emperor Network.

The more points, the better.

Lin Moyu leaped into the crack.

The flames were nothing to him.

The crack was not deep, and Lin Moyu quickly reached the bottom by following the flames.

It was a world of fire, with red flames everywhere.

Among them were many blue Starfires.

The Starfire sensed Lin Moyu’s life aura and immediately flew towards him.

Burning the flesh and damaging the soul.

Blue flames appeared outside the soul world but were firmly blocked by the soul world.

A third-grade peak soul had extremely strong defenses, easily blocking the damage from the Starfire.

Through the flames, Lin Moyu saw some Starfire Gold.

Some were scattered on the ground, while others were embedded in the rock walls on both sides, in considerable quantities.

With a thought, Lin Moyu sent out the skeletons to retrieve the Starfire Gold from the flames.

Lin Moyu then followed the underground crack deeper.

“According to the resources, Starfire Gold veins might produce Starfire Gold Essence, a true god-level material worth more than ten times the value of Starfire Gold.”

Lin Moyu soon reached the bottom but did not find any Starfire Gold Essence.

By this time, the skeletons had collected all the Starfire Gold, about ten thousand pounds, enough for 1,000 points.

It was already a good harvest.

“It seems there’s no more. I shouldn’t be greedy.” Lin Moyu was about to leave when he noticed several large marks on the rock wall.

He recognized them as claw marks from Starfire Beasts.

The three Starfire Beasts that had jumped out earlier were there because of the presence of Starfire Gold underground.

The claw marks indicated that the Starfire Beasts had attacked the rock wall, likely trying to break through it.

Starfire Beasts are companion beasts of Starfire Gold and have a trait of seeking more Starfire Gold.

Starfire Beasts have no intelligence, only instinct.

This suggested that there might be more Starfire Gold behind the rock wall.

Lin Moyu tested the rock wall and found it extremely hard, almost metallic.

The Skeleton God Warrior tried with an axe, but the rock wall didn’t budge.

Lin Moyu summoned the Skeleton God Generals to break the wall.

The Skeleton God Generals wielded their giant swords, slashing at the rock wall.

The power of a fifth-tier super god was immense, shaking the entire underground world and the already shattered star.

The Skeleton God Generals tirelessly attacked, and the solid rock wall gradually cracked and began to collapse.

With a tremor that shook the entire star, the rock wall finally crumbled, and a burst of flames erupted.

The flames were extremely hot, instantly raising the temperature.

Lin Moyu entered the flames and passed through the cavity to another space.

The space was still small but filled with an astonishing amount of Starfire Gold.

Where there is Starfire Gold, there are Starfire Beasts.

Lin Moyu’s arrival awakened the Starfire Beasts resting there.

In the flames, pairs of eyes lit up.

Lin Moyu didn’t care about the ordinary Starfire Beasts; he saw a giant Starfire Beast.

This Starfire Beast had the power of a sixth-tier super god.

It was much stronger than the ordinary Starfire Beasts.

Beside it was a piece of Starfire Gold Essence glowing blue.

“Starfire Gold Essence…”

Lin Moyu was delighted to have found the Starfire Gold Essence.

Before the Starfire Beasts could attack, the Skeleton God Generals charged like wolves.

A massacre ensued.

The ordinary Starfire Beasts, with only third to fourth-tier super god strength, were no match for the Skeleton God Generals and were quickly slaughtered.

The Skeleton God Generals then surrounded the strongest Starfire Beast and began to attack.

Although a sixth-tier super god was troublesome, it was not invincible.

The space was small, and the thousand Skeleton God Generals filled it, leaving the sixth-tier Starfire Beast no room to escape.

Its attacks were powerful, with flames and giant claws, each strike invoking the laws of fire.

Even a sixth-tier super god could only fight it to a draw.

But against the relentless assault of the Skeleton God Generals, it eventually died in frustration.
