Catastrophic necromancer

Chapter 3331: Bai Yiyuan’s Words Still Hold True

The Goldenwater Beast is a spirit beast living in the Boundary Sea, also considered part of the Sea Race, occupying an area of the sea.

In the Goldenwater Beast’s territory, a type of ore called Goldenwater Stone is produced, which is an excellent water-attribute material for artifact refining.

Every time Hurricane Warship No. 4 returns from the Western Continent to the Southern Continent, it visits the Goldenwater Beast’s territory. With luck, they can obtain some Goldenwater Stones.

The appearance of Goldenwater Stones is somewhat random and not easy to obtain.

The Hurricane Warship’s speed dropped to its lowest, sailing at an extremely slow pace. Its formations were activated, completely concealing the warship’s aura, entering an invisible state.

Goldenwater Beasts dislike any intruders in their territory and attack all outsiders.

Lu Feng Yao also notified everyone on board not to leave the Hurricane Warship. Anyone who left would bear the consequences themselves.

Lin Moyu smiled and said, “This time the Lu Feng Chamber of Commerce isn’t forcing people to stay on board.”

Little Mei asked, “Why aren’t they enforcing it this time?”

Lin Moyu leisurely sipped his tea, “Use your brain and think about it.”

Little Mei tilted her head, pondering for a while with her hand supporting her chin. “Is it because there are very few Goldenwater Stones? But that’s not right. Shouldn’t they want to keep control of them even more if they’re rare?”

“They did that on Rainbow Fairy Shell Island before, and the following times too. Why is this time different?”

After thinking for quite a while, Little Mei still couldn’t figure out why. She looked at Lin Moyu with intense curiosity, “Teacher, please just tell me.”

Lin Moyu said, “Actually, I’m just guessing too. Many times, there aren’t perfectly accurate answers for many things.”

Little Mei frowned, her small face scrunching up, “Teacher, stop being mysterious. Just tell me how you guessed.”

Lin Moyu smiled and said, “First, you need to know the value of Goldenwater Stones.”

Without hesitation, Little Mei replied, “Goldenwater Stones are of the water element of the five elements, but also contain a trace of metal attribute. They’re excellent materials for Dao Venerable realm artifact refining, extremely valuable. Especially the top-grade ones, their value is immeasurable.”

Lin Moyu said, “So you see, people die for wealth, birds die for food. Seeing Goldenwater Stones, some people are bound to be tempted.”

“Some people even came specifically for Goldenwater Stones. The Lu Feng Chamber of Commerce said people would bear the consequences of leaving the ship. But what if someone successfully obtains Goldenwater Stones? Wouldn’t that be a huge fortune?”

“Also, you need to understand the habits of Goldenwater Beasts. They have an extremely strong xenophobic nature. Not just outsiders like us, even fellow Sea Race members aren’t allowed to approach.”

“At the same time, some information indicates that the Goldenwater Beast clan regularly holds a sacrificial ceremony. They sacrifice living beings, including both Sea Race and other races.”

Hearing this, Little Mei was suddenly shocked, “Teacher, are you saying the Lu Feng Chamber of Commerce is using those people as sacrificial offerings for the Goldenwater Beasts?”

Lin Moyu chuckled, “It’s not the Lu Feng Chamber of Commerce sending them, but they’re sending themselves, due to their greed.”

“At most, the Lu Feng Chamber of Commerce provided bait, and this bait is out in the open for everyone to see. Whether to take the bait depends on how smart you are, whether you can control your inner greed.”

Everyone has greed. When faced with temptation, whether one can maintain their Dao heart is the key.

If one can’t maintain it, even if nothing happens today, something will happen in the future.

Little Mei said, “The Lu Feng Chamber of Commerce doing this seems a bit cruel. And what benefit does it bring them?”

Lin Moyu said, “Little Mei, you have memories from your past life. You should know what this world is like. As for benefits, there certainly are some. The Three Ancestors don’t do business at a loss.”

Little Mei sighed. At this moment, the childishness disappeared from her small face, replaced by a hint of maturity, “Teacher is right. This is just how the world is.”

Lin Moyu took a sip of tea and slowly uttered eight words, “The weak are prey to the strong, only the fittest survive!”

The weak have no say. This world is very unfair, but from a certain perspective, it’s also very fair.

Might makes right. The words Bai Yiyuan once said still hold true on the Origin Continent.

Little Mei looked at the Dao Venerables also standing by the ship’s rail, wondering how many of them would die for Goldenwater Stones.

The Hurricane Warship slowed down, concealing its aura. After flying in the Goldenwater Beast territory for half an hour, a golden light suddenly appeared in their view.

The golden light intertwined with the water light of the Boundary Sea, looking extremely beautiful.

“Goldenwater Stone!”

Someone on the warship exclaimed softly.

Little Mei could clearly sense that many people’s heartbeats and breathing had changed.

Greed was aroused. The number of people coming for the Goldenwater Stones seemed to exceed her imagination.

Little Mei realized that she had spent too long cultivating in her past life, and her understanding of this world was too shallow.

Lin Moyu said slowly, “There are too many temptations in the world. It’s difficult to maintain one’s Dao heart.”

Little Mei deeply agreed. There are countless temptations, but only one path to maintain one’s Dao heart.

The warship gradually approached the Goldenwater Stone. Finally, someone flew out of the warship towards the Goldenwater Stone.

As soon as he left the warship, his aura was exposed.

This was a third-level Dao Venerable cultivator. He was prepared, taking out a magical treasure to conceal his aura again.

Everyone on the warship was watching him.

He didn’t fly fast. After concealing his aura with the magical treasure, he still flew cautiously.

He carefully approached the Goldenwater Stone. When he reached it, he took out another magical treasure to collect the Goldenwater Stone.

Boom!

The sea waves roared, and the sound of beasts’ angry roars filled their ears.

Streaks of golden light appeared, each representing a Goldenwater Beast.

The Goldenwater Beasts’ auras were powerful. Even the weakest were Dao Venerables, and there were dozens of them.

These were just the outer perimeter. If they went deeper, the number and strength of Goldenwater Beasts would increase.

The Goldenwater Beast clan was no weaker than any royal clan among the demon race.

After obtaining the Goldenwater Stone, that Dao Venerable immediately returned to the Hurricane Warship at top speed.

He was very lucky, returning to the Hurricane Warship before the Goldenwater Beasts discovered him.

These Goldenwater Beasts searched once, and finding no results, sank back into the Boundary Sea and disappeared.

“Success!” Little Mei exclaimed softly.

When that person returned, his face was full of joy.

He had indeed succeeded, bringing back a Goldenwater Stone. The value of this Goldenwater Stone was at least a hundred times the price of the ship ticket.

Not to mention for him, a third-level Dao Venerable, even for a seventh-level Dao Venerable elder, this was a considerable fortune.

It could be said that his net worth had increased at least tenfold.

Many people looked on with envy, their eyes simultaneously revealing a greedy gleam.

Lin Moyu chuckled lightly, “The bait is getting bigger and bigger.”

Little Mei nodded, “Yes, I see those people seem to be getting restless. Teacher, you’re amazing. It’s exactly as you guessed.”

Lin Moyu said, “It’s not that I’m amazing, it’s just human nature. In a while, the number of Goldenwater Stones will increase, and their quality will improve. By then, it won’t be so easy to obtain them.”
