Catastrophic necromancer

**Chapter 1971: Enlightenment: The Real World**

Lin Moyu woke up to a pair of bright eyes staring at him.

Lord Mist approached Lin Moyu and, after confirming he was fully awake, immediately asked, “You’re awake. So, did you learn the Luck Detection Technique?”

As the artifact spirit of the Inheritance Pagoda, she was naturally very familiar with its contents.

The first to third levels taught the Luck Detection Technique. Based on one’s mastery of the technique, it was decided whether one could advance to the next level or be eliminated.

The worst outcome was failing to comprehend it, resulting in being trapped here until one either succeeded or was eventually expelled by the Inheritance Pagoda after a certain period.

Lin Moyu shook his head, “I didn’t learn it.”

He spoke honestly; he hadn’t learned it because he hadn’t even tried.

He had been focused on understanding the Cloud Mist Sect’s philosophy of the world, finding the Luck Detection Technique unimportant.

Hearing Lin Moyu’s response, Lord Mist spread her hands like an elder scolding a younger one, “I told you, you should have chosen a random inheritance from the Cloud Mist Palace. Why did you insist on entering the Inheritance Pagoda? Now look, you can’t comprehend it and will be stuck here.”

“Fortunately, it’s just the first level. A few hundred years should be enough.”

Lin Moyu laughed, “You don’t seem to like me being stuck here.”

Lord Mist snorted, “If you’re stuck here, I have to watch over you. It’s annoying.”

Lin Moyu could sense that this artifact spirit was actually quite kind-hearted and not very scheming.

She didn’t know that if he left, she would fall back into a deep sleep.

Otherwise, she probably wouldn’t have said that.

Lin Moyu said, “Although I didn’t learn the Luck Detection Technique, I did comprehend something else.”

Lord Mist seemed disdainful, “What else could you comprehend besides the Luck Detection Technique?”

Lin Moyu replied, “The Cloud Mist Sect’s philosophy of the world.”

“What!” Lord Mist screamed, her whole demeanor changing as if she had been shocked, “Impossible, absolutely impossible!”

Lin Moyu was curious, “Why is it impossible?”

Lord Mist, too agitated, spun around on her white cloud before speaking, “I’ve been here for many, many years, and only three people have ever understood the Cloud Mist Sect’s philosophy.”

“My old master said that those who can understand this philosophy are very, very rare, and each one has the potential to become a Celestial Sovereign.”

Lin Moyu smiled, “Then why do you think it’s impossible for me?”

Lord Mist snorted, “You seem average in aptitude, not particularly smart, so it’s naturally impossible.”

“Besides, apart from my old master, the other two took many, many years, at least a few thousand years, to comprehend it.”

“You’ve only been here for a short time. How could you possibly understand it?”

Lin Moyu had comprehended it in a hundred days, which was indeed far shorter than a few thousand years.

Listening to Lord Mist, Lin Moyu realized that her master was not a Supreme but likely a Celestial Sovereign.

He thought for a moment and said, “I can see you greatly admire your old master.”

Lord Mist snorted, “Don’t mention him. Although he’s my master and very powerful, I hate him. He always ordered me around, and it was so annoying.”

Lin Moyu found this artifact spirit interesting. Besides having independent consciousness, she even had emotions similar to humans.

If she had a human body, she could be considered a person, much more advanced than the formation spirit Xiao Jin.

Lin Moyu continued, “Your old master was indeed powerful. After all, he managed the entire Cloud Mist Sect’s inheritance, including you.”

Although Lord Mist claimed to dislike her old master, she proudly said, “Of course, my old master was a Celestial Sovereign. I’ve heard that even among Celestial Sovereigns, few were more powerful than him.”

“Indeed, a Celestial Sovereign!” Lin Moyu thought to himself and then asked, “Lord Mist, what was your master’s name?”

Lord Mist naturally replied, “My old master was known as Illusory Mist.”

Illusory Mist Celestial Sovereign!

This was the first Celestial Sovereign’s name Lin Moyu had heard, and he memorized it.

At this moment, Lord Mist continued, “Enough with the nonsense. You said you understood the Cloud Mist Sect’s philosophy. Tell me, what is it?”

“Don’t try to deceive me. My old master told me some things about the Cloud Mist Sect. I may not fully understand, but I remember everything.”

“I have a good memory and won’t forget, no matter how many years pass.”

Lin Moyu thought for a moment and calmly said, “Causality and Reality!”

Lord Mist screamed again, flying around on her white cloud in excitement.

She flew in circles for a while before calming down, “You really comprehended it? All of it?”

Lin Moyu nodded, “I mostly understand it, but there are still some details to sort out.”

Lord Mist’s eyes were filled with complex emotions, “My old master once said it took him over a hundred years to fully comprehend it. You did it in just a hundred days. Are you smarter than my old master?”

“If you truly comprehended it, you have a chance to reach the highest level and obtain the supreme inheritance…”

“Then you’ll become my new master. Promise me you won’t bully me.”

The once high-and-mighty Lord Mist suddenly turned into a delicate girl, pleading with Lin Moyu.

Her pitiful appearance made Lin Moyu feel like a bad uncle.

Lin Moyu smiled, “Why would I bully you? No matter the outcome, I’ll tell you everything that has happened over the years.”

Lord Mist responded with an “Oh” and floated away, “Continue then. I won’t disturb you.”

Lin Moyu sat back down, closed his eyes, and quickly calmed his breath, entering a state of enlightenment again.

He had indeed comprehended it, but there were still many details to sort out.

His old worldview had been shattered, and a new one was beginning to form.

His soul opened its eyes and began to murmur.

The voice was like thunder, echoing in the soul world.

At this moment, his soul exuded a terrifying aura, incredibly majestic.

“Causality!”

“Yin and Yang!”

“Reality and Illusion!”

“Positive and Negative!”

“Everything in the world has both reality and illusion, positive and negative sides.”

“Laws are the same. There are laws representing reality and laws representing illusion.”

“Causality is an illusionary law, and the law of fate is also an illusionary law. They hide behind the world, representing the illusionary side of the entire world.”

“Although invisible and inaudible, they truly exist and can be comprehended. As long as the right method is used, they can be touched.”

“Compared to illusionary laws, reality laws can be touched and felt. Even seemingly intangible laws like time and space are actually reality laws.”

“The Hao Saint Sovereign’s Void Law, although it has ’void’ in its name, is actually a reality law.”

“Illusionary laws are like an invisible web, secretly covering the entire world and influencing it.”

“They are interconnected, and compared to them, reality laws have a smaller scope of influence.”

As his soul murmured, each sentence echoed like thunder in the soul world.

The more he spoke, the clearer his understanding of the world became.

His old worldview merged with the Cloud Mist Sect’s philosophy, giving Lin Moyu a clearer and more thorough understanding of the world.

At this moment, his soul realm began to rise dramatically.

His soul entered a state of enlightenment!
