Catastrophic necromancer

Chapter 2417: One Question, One Jar of Wine

Seeing Lin Moyu’s confused expression, Shui Zhi Heavenly Venerate smiled and said, “Among the demon race, the Thunder Light Purple-Striped Tiger is a major clan.”

“Their royal family has the surname Lei.”

“This indicates that this guy is from the royal family, with an extraordinary status and position, so he values his life greatly.”

“For him, losing a world contest doesn’t matter. He can just go back home, where there are enough resources for him to advance to Dao Venerate.”

“He probably thought the world contest was fun, so he came to try it out. Once he had enough fun, he was ready to go back. It wasn’t worth leaving his life here.”

Lin Moyu filled in the rest of the story in his mind.

A Thunder Light Purple-Striped Tiger born into the royal family, not wanting to rely on his family, decided to come to the World Sea to participate in world contests, trying to prove himself.

Unfortunately, it ended in failure.

But it doesn’t matter. For him, the world contest was just a game. Losing didn’t have much impact, just a waste of some time.

Lin Moyu muttered to himself, “No wonder that guy told me if I ever go to demon territory, I could mention his name and he’d look out for me.”

Shui Zhi Heavenly Venerate squinted his eyes and said, “If you really do that, you might as well wait for death.”

Lin Moyu instantly understood the meaning behind Shui Zhi Heavenly Venerate’s words. “You mean, within the demon race, internal strife is also fierce.”

Shui Zhi Heavenly Venerate nodded, “Extremely fierce. The Thunder Light Purple-Striped Tiger also has many enemy demon clans. Unless you enter the Thunder Light Purple-Striped Tiger’s territory, his name might still be useful.”

“But in other places, hehe, you’d better prepare to be hunted down.”

Lin Moyu laughed, “I didn’t expect that guy to try to set me up one last time before leaving.”

Shui Zhi Heavenly Venerate said, “It’s not really setting you up, he just didn’t explain clearly.”

“Most demons don’t have brains as good as you humans. They prefer to be direct and straightforward.”

“You humans are the ones who are truly scheming and complicated.”

Lin Moyu smiled and said, “That depends on the person. Not everyone is like that. For example, I’m very sincere.”

Shui Zhi Heavenly Venerate gave Lin Moyu a sidelong glance, then looked at the two jars of fine wine in front of him, and said ambiguously, “Perhaps.”

Seeing Shui Zhi Heavenly Venerate’s expression that clearly said he didn’t believe him, Lin Moyu felt somewhat helpless. Had his reputation really fallen to this level?

Lin Moyu simply sat down as well, drinking wine with Shui Zhi Heavenly Venerate. “Senior, I have two questions.”

Shui Zhi Heavenly Venerate said, “Hmm, two jars of wine for two questions. This deal can be made.”

Lin Moyu laughed, “Since when did you become so greedy?”

Shui Zhi Heavenly Venerate snorted, “Stop wasting time. If you have something to say, spit it out!”

Lin Moyu said, “The first question is, where can I get spiritual materials? The higher the grade, the better.”

“How high of a grade?”

“The higher, the better!”

Shui Zhi Heavenly Venerate thought for a moment, “Spiritual materials are very rare. Heavenly Venerate-level spiritual materials are not inferior to fourth-grade Origin in value, and that’s just for low-grade materials within the Heavenly Venerate realm.”

“Although these materials are rare, they can still be found in the World Sea. I can keep an eye out for you, or ask others to buy them. We should be able to get some.”

“If you want high-grade spiritual materials within the Heavenly Venerate realm, perhaps the generals or the King might have some.”

“There are many merchant associations on the Origin Continent that might also have them.”

“As for Dao Venerate-level spiritual materials, those things are too high-grade. I don’t know about them.”

Lin Moyu asked curiously, “What do you use for transactions when buying things in the World Sea?”

Shui Zhi Heavenly Venerate said, “Anything of value will do. Heavenly Venerate-level treasures, materials, fourth-grade or higher Origin, high-grade World Sea shells, World Sea pearls, all work.”

World Sea pearls were the pearls Lin Moyu had seen before. High-grade World Sea pearls referred to those at the Heavenly Venerate level or above.

The one in the Cloud Mist Sect back then was a Heavenly Venerate-level World Sea pearl.

Lin Moyu understood that in the World Sea, it was all about bartering. Anything of value could be used.

Lin Moyu asked, “Then what is used for transactions on the Origin Continent?”

Shui Zhi Heavenly Venerate shook his head, “That’s the third question.”

Lin Moyu was stunned, “This counts too?”

Shui Zhi Heavenly Venerate said, “Is there a problem?”

Lin Moyu sighed, “Fine, no problem!”

He took out two more jars of fine wine and gave them to Shui Zhi Heavenly Venerate.

He had plenty of fine wine. The Human Emperor had prepared a lot for him, and they were all meant to be given to Shui Zhi Heavenly Venerate anyway.

Shui Zhi Heavenly Venerate accepted them with satisfaction, “On the Origin Continent, as the name suggests, they use Origin crystals.”

“Although bartering is also possible, the main currency in circulation is still Origin crystals. You’ll understand the specifics when you get there.”

Lin Moyu nodded slightly, “Do you know the situation of the three worlds coming this time?”

Shui Zhi Heavenly Venerate said, “I know some general information. The masters of these three worlds are all human, from different sects.”

“These three sects are not bad, at least stronger than the Seven-Colored Sect. It’s better not to offend them if you can avoid it.”

“You don’t want to have enemies everywhere before you even reach the Origin Continent, do you?”

“Moreover, they value their lives quite a bit. If they can’t win, they won’t fight to the death.”

The three worlds are called the Clear Spirit World, the Yang Ming World, and the Flying Elixir World.

They are all fifth-grade worlds, not much different from the Tiger Demon World, just a matter of having one more or one less Heavenly Venerate.”

The names of the three worlds are all named after their masters.

Their masters are Clear Spirit Heavenly Venerate, Yang Ming Heavenly Venerate, and Flying Elixir Heavenly Venerate, all mid-level Heavenly Venerates.

However, according to Shui Zhi Heavenly Venerate, their foundations are not as strong as Lei Hao’s, and they probably don’t have as many trump cards as Lei Hao.

But this is not 100% certain, after all, no one would reveal all their trump cards.

All three covet the sixth-grade Origin of the Great World, but they have discussed it among themselves. They will rely entirely on strength to decide, and the three of them will not interfere in each other’s battles.

In Lin Moyu’s view, this kind of discussion was like saying, “We’ll fight, but let our subordinates go all out. We’ll just watch from the sidelines! Whether we win or lose, we won’t fight to the death ourselves. We’ll stay alive.”

This also indirectly shows that they value their own lives very much.

It’s not easy to cultivate to the Heavenly Venerate realm, and no one wants to die.

Lin Moyu suddenly had an idea, “What if I were to invade directly before the two worlds collide?”

Shui Zhi Heavenly Venerate stared at Lin Moyu, “Are you crazy? In someone else’s world, your strength will be suppressed. Even if your spells have merged with Origin, they will still be affected, just a matter of how much.”

Suddenly, he changed his tone, “If that’s the case, it’s not impossible. Indeed, some people have done this before.”

“The premise is that your strength can completely overwhelm the opponent. Otherwise, it would be very dangerous.”

“Once you enter someone else’s world, it’s not so easy to retreat!”

“I think, to be safe, you shouldn’t do this. Just wait honestly for it to come and merge.”

Lin Moyu had his own thoughts, “The first one to crash over is the Clear Spirit World, backed by Clear Spirit Heavenly Venerate. If I win, I can’t kill him. He will definitely tell the situation in the Great World to the other two Heavenly Venerates.”

“At that time, the other two worlds probably won’t choose to merge. The World Sea mist you borrowed with such difficulty would be wasted.”

Without a master in the Great World, the choice of world collision method is not up to those in the Great World.

If the other side doesn’t choose to merge, but chooses to collide, then they will only suffer a little loss and can avoid failure.

This way, Lin Moyu’s plan to obtain their world Origin would be difficult to succeed.

Shui Zhi Heavenly Venerate said, “You have a point. So what do you plan to do?”

Lin Moyu said, “After dealing with the Clear Spirit World, I plan to directly send troops to the Yang Ming World and Flying Elixir World.”

Shui Zhi Heavenly Venerate didn’t continue to persuade Lin Moyu. After all, what Lin Moyu said wasn’t wrong!
