Chapter 1271

Lin Moyu's eyes lit up. "Please go ahead, Senior Brother Xiao."

"The Demon God Stones of the Starry Sky Demon God Clan might work," Xiao Sheng said, then added, "However, Demon God Stones are rare, and there seem to be other issues as well. I'm not entirely sure of the specifics."

It didn't matter if Xiao Sheng didn't know; Zhu Qiwu would certainly know.

Lin Moyu bowed to Xiao Sheng. "Thank you, Senior Brother Xiao!"

…

Outside the Wondrous Land, Zhu Qiwu sat cross-legged in silence.

Lin Moyu had been inside the Wondrous Land for two years.

For his true body, a single session of meditation or seclusion could last ten or a hundred years.

Two years was merely the snap of a finger, nothing at all.

At this moment, he slowly opened his eyes, looked toward the Wondrous Land, and smiled. "The brat has finally returned."

"His aura is stable, his soul and body are balanced and intertwined, without any flaws or leaks. It seems he has achieved a perfect promotion."

Chapter 1419: Do you want to become a member of the Demon God Clan?

A stream of light shot out from within the Wondrous Land, adjusted its direction, and flew toward Zhu Qiwu.

Seconds later, Lin Moyu had arrived before Zhu Qiwu, cupping his hands in a salute. "Sorry to have kept you waiting, Senior."

Zhu Qiwu chuckled. "I almost got you killed earlier. Do you hold any grudges against this old man?"

Lin Moyu shook his head with a smile. "You're joking, Senior. This junior has never had such thoughts."

Zhu Qiwu could naturally tell whether Lin Moyu was speaking the truth or not. He looked Lin Moyu up and down, revealing a look of satisfaction. "Not bad, not bad. You've achieved a perfect promotion to God King and attained the God King Golden Body. Your physical body should be beyond the first rank of God King by now, right?"

Lin Moyu nodded in admission. "Second rank God King."

Zhu Qiwu was even more satisfied. "Tell me about the Ancient Buddha's palm print and how you resolved it."

Lin Moyu did not hide anything and recounted everything that had happened that day.

Upon hearing Lin Moyu's method of resolution, Zhu Qiwu couldn't help but say "Good" several times.

Lin Moyu's method involved both brute force and finesse, adapting to the situation and adjusting constantly.

He had resolved this seemingly fatal situation without even using his life-saving trump cards.

Lin Moyu also told Zhu Qiwu about the abilities of the Buddha Kingdom Lich, wanting to hear his opinion.

He was very curious about the Law of Fate; the ability to predict the future was truly very practical.

At the same time, he remained vigilant against the Buddhist Clan. The fact that the Buddhist Clan possessed such a secret technique was indeed terrifying.

If one day he were to confront the Buddhist Clan, he would certainly need to be prepared.

Zhu Qiwu said, "The Truth-Peering Technique is indeed a secret art of the Buddhist Clan. Only those like Buddha sons or Buddhas can practice it, and very few are able to master it."

Learning a technique acquired later in life versus having an innate skill that is upgraded into a technique are completely different concepts.

For innate skills, the only questions are whether they can be upgraded into techniques, and whether they will be Planet-level or Star-level.

However, learning new techniques later and forming them into technique planets is incomparably difficult.

Especially for techniques like the Truth-Peering Technique, which are related to the Law of Fate, it is even more difficult.

"In that case, Buddha Leyi can be considered a genius within the Buddhist Clan. However, the fact that he could enter the Nether Swamp with Senior Brother Xu at that time, and then achieve Buddhahood while preserving his life, is truly extraordinary." Lin Moyu evaluated Buddha Leyi impartially, without deliberately belittling him.

He never underestimated any enemy, especially the Buddhist Clan; he would never underestimate them.

Since he had added the Buddhist Clan to his blacklist, he naturally needed to learn more about his opponent.

Zhu Qiwu smiled and said, "The grandson of an Ancient Buddha has extraordinary bloodline, so he is naturally different from ordinary people. However, you don't need to worry too much. No one in the Buddhist Clan controls the Law of Fate; the Truth-Peering Technique was something the Buddhist Clan obtained by accident."

"As for more information about the Buddhist Clan, you will be able to see it once you enter the God City and possess sufficient qualifications."

"And by then, the information on the Buddhist Clan will need to be updated again."

Zhu Qiwu seemed to have seen through Lin Moyu's thoughts and dangled a hook before him.

Lin Moyu looked at Zhu Qiwu. "Is the information on the Buddhist Clan updated periodically?"

Zhu Qiwu chuckled a few times without answering, the implication being: "Guess."

Lin Moyu did have some guesses in his heart, but he wasn't very certain. He also knew that Zhu Qiwu was tempting him to go to the God City. "Fine, I'll see for myself when I go to the God City."

Zhu Qiwu said, "Let's go, it's time to return. A lot has happened in the two years you've been away. You'll know the specifics when you get back."

"The Four Star Domain Competition will start in less than two years. I've already spoken to Domain Master Zhu Tian, and he will give you a spot."

"I will come to pick you up before the competition begins."

A sense of gratitude rose in Lin Moyu's heart; Zhu Qiwu was really very good to him.

Zhu Qiwu patted Lin Moyu on the shoulder. "Little guy, work hard. The Human Clan needs geniuses like you."

This pep talk came right on time. Lin Moyu didn't respond; he had long passed the age where he could be moved by such platitudes.

Lin Moyu changed the subject. "Senior, I heard that Demon God Stones can rapidly enhance one's physical body."

Zhu Qiwu rolled his eyes at him. "Xiao Sheng told you, didn't he?"

Lin Moyu nodded. "I have already healed his injuries."

Zhu Qiwu knew that he had the ability to heal soul injuries. Bringing him here, besides allowing him to achieve a perfect promotion to God King, had another purpose: to heal Xiao Sheng's injuries.

However, Zhu Qiwu hadn't said it explicitly, likely wanting to see if he would take the initiative to act.

After all, he would even act to help He Renxing, let alone Xiao Sheng.

Precisely because Zhu Qiwu didn't say it, he hadn't deliberately sought out Xiao Sheng to heal him, so this favor belonged entirely to him.

If Zhu Qiwu had told him and he had taken the initiative to find Xiao Sheng, Zhu Qiwu would have claimed at least half of the favor.

Lin Moyu could understand Zhu Qiwu's intentions.

Zhu Qiwu didn't react much, his tone very calm. "Demon God Stones can indeed rapidly enhance physical strength. Each of the Four Source Clans has its own characteristics, and the Starry Sky Demon God Clan is known for having the strongest physical bodies."

Lin Moyu asked curiously, "Isn't the Dragon Clan the one with the strongest physical bodies?"

Zhu Qiwu said, "They are indeed the strongest now, but when the Starry Sky Demon God Clan was still around, the Dragon Clan's physical bodies only ranked second."

"The Demon God Stones from the Starry Sky Demon God Clan can indeed rapidly enhance the physical body, but they also have a fatal flaw."

"If you use a large amount of Demon God Stones, your body will transform toward the Demon God Clan, and even your bloodline will change."

"By then, you will no longer be a member of the Human Clan, but of the Starry Sky Demon God Clan. Do you still want to use them?"

Zhu Qiwu looked at Lin Moyu with a half-smile.

Lin Moyu hurriedly shook his head. "Forget it, leave such good things for others."

He was a human, and he couldn't abandon his roots for the sake of power.

The Human Clan was also one of the Four Source Clans and had its own advantages. Moreover, the Starry Sky Demon God Clan was no longer around, while the Human Clan still existed to this day; by any measure, the Human Clan was stronger.

Zhu Qiwu continued, "Xiao Sheng only knows one side of the story and not the other. But it doesn't matter. There aren't many Demon God Stones left in the world, and they have all been controlled by us, so ordinary people cannot obtain them."

"Using low-grade Demon God Stones occasionally is not a problem, so you don't need to worry."

Lin Moyu naturally knew whether his bloodline had changed, so he wasn't worried.

That was the Human Clan: taking the essence, discarding the dross, utilizing everything that could be used, and finding ways to utilize what couldn't.

Lin Moyu gave up the idea of using Demon God Stones, but he didn't give up the idea of enhancing his physical body. "Besides Demon God Stones, are there other ways to rapidly enhance the physical body?"

Zhu Qiwu said, "There are, of course, but not here; they are in the God City."

Another bait was thrown out; Zhu Qiwu seemed terrified that Lin Moyu wouldn't go to the God City.

Lin Moyu said in his heart, "Actually, you don't need to do this. I will definitely go to the God City."

He said aloud at the same time, "Then I will do my best to go to the God City."

Zhu Qiwu said sternly, "There is less than two years left. Complete the chain quests, then go participate in the Four Star Domain Competition, and at least enter the top three."

The Four Star Domain was full of geniuses, and there were also seeded players from the War God Temple. It would be very, very difficult to get into the top three.

However, Lin Moyu had confidence in himself. "No problem, but there are some guys in the chain quests who are not on the battlefield, which makes them hard to deal with."

Zhu Qiwu laughed inscrutably. "Those guys have already come."

Chapter 1420: Having too much fame isn't necessarily a good thing.

Lin Moyu returned to Fortress No. 1 alone, still thinking about Zhu Qiwu's words.

Zhu Qiwu hadn't told him what exactly had happened, and his strange expression made Lin Moyu's imagination run wild.

Just as he walked out of the teleportation array, exclamations suddenly rang in his ears.

"That's Lin Moyu!"

"Lin Moyu is back!"

"So he is Lin Moyu, he's really so young!"

"Not only young, but he also looks good. It would be great if I could become his dao companion!"

"A figure who can stand shoulder to shoulder with the War God. A 28-year-old in the Super God Realm, truly extraordinary."

The exclamations were accompanied by a massive surge of Power of Belief, washing over him like ocean waves.

Outside the teleportation array, a large number of cultivators were standing there, and almost all eyes were focused on him.

Among them, the gazes of a few cultivators were even more like wolves and tigers.

Lin Moyu, who was accustomed to big scenes of life and death, couldn't help but be stunned at this moment.

He finally understood why Zhu Qiwu's expression had been so strange, and why he had asked him to return alone.

These people were all his fans, and the most fanatical batch at that, providing him with a massive amount of Power of Belief.

Lin Moyu couldn't do anything to these people; after all, they were his fans, and everyone was of the Human Clan.

"Fortunately, they are still restrained and haven't rushed over."

As soon as this thought arose, Lin Moyu realized something was wrong.

It wasn't that they were very restrained; it was because there was an army managing them from the sky.

A thousand-man army in the sky had formed a semi-encirclement, their aura imposing, managing this area.

It wasn't that those people were restrained; they were being suppressed by the army.

Lin Moyu breathed a sigh of relief. "The military is reliable after all. Senior Zhu must have known, which is why he didn't come."

If all these fans had swarmed over, even he wouldn't have known how to handle it.

He couldn't fight them, he couldn't scold them; it was even more of a headache than facing an enemy clan.

A majestic voice suddenly came from the sky. "Officer Lin, please board the warship."

Lin Moyu recognized the voice of Fortress No. 1's Legion Commander Ke Yuanjun; he hadn't expected him to be here too.

In the starry sky outside the fortress, a massive God Venerable-level warship was docked. The warship's gate was open, and Ke Yuanjun was standing in front of it.

His voice was like music to his ears, rescuing Lin Moyu from his 'predicament.'

Without a second word, Lin Moyu turned into a stream of light and appeared in front of Ke Yuanjun almost instantly.

With a hint of gratitude, he said, "Legion Commander Ke, thank you."

Ke Yuanjun was an experienced person and laughed heartily. "Don't be polite. Who told you to be a celebrity now?"

Lin Moyu gave a wry smile. "Everyone here is a cultivator; who would have thought?"

At Ke Yuanjun's invitation, Lin Moyu entered the warship.

Although Ke Yuanjun was a God Venerable, a Legion Commander, and held the rank of General, he had no airs at all and was extremely polite to Lin Moyu.

First, because as long as Lin Moyu didn't die, his future achievements would not be below his own.

Second, because Ke Yuanjun's personal disciple had been saved thanks to Lin Moyu, and was even being healed by Lin Moyu's laws right now.

Ke Yuanjun remembered this favor from Lin Moyu.

Invisibly, Ke Yuanjun had already come to regard Lin Moyu as a figure of the same level as himself.
