Chapter 2053

Lin Moyu said, "I am looking at their rewards; they are different from ours."

Lu Fengyao said, "Indeed. They only obtained fifth-order origin, which is not bad, but it cannot compare to the world crystal."

"I wonder why that is? Judging by their appearance, they seem quite happy."

Lin Moyu naturally would not reveal his discovery; if he were to say it out loud, he would likely be close to death. Stopping his focus on them, Lin Moyu took the jade token given by Lu Fengyao and examined its contents.

During the World Dispute, there are many treasures used for the competition. The world crystal is one of them; its function is significant, yet also very simple.

Its greatest use is to allow a Boundary Sea World to advance.

If a Boundary Sea World wants to advance, it needs to devour the origin of other worlds.

There are many Strange Fish in the Boundary Sea that possess origin. This origin is full of impurities, but after being refined by a Boundary Sea World, it can enhance the Boundary Sea World to a certain extent.

If a Boundary Sea World is injured, as long as it is not too severe, it can also use them to recover.

But once a Boundary Sea World is too severely injured, or if the Boundary Sea World wishes to advance, they become useless; it must devour the origin of another Boundary Sea World to do so.

Or, it can also be achieved by directly providing world-class origin.

Besides that, there is another method, which is the world crystal.

The world crystal is actually a special type of world-class origin. It cannot be used for cultivation or Fusion Technique, but it can allow a Boundary Sea World to advance.

The higher the rank of the Boundary Sea World, the more world crystals it requires, and the higher the quality requirements become.

According to Lu Fengyao, the world crystals they obtained are high-quality world crystals, capable of allowing a sixth-order world to advance to a seventh-order world.

A weakest sixth-order world only needs three such world crystals to advance to the seventh order.

Lu Fengyao's sixth-order world is already quite powerful, so only one piece is enough.

The sixth-order world of that Heavenly Venerable Xiong from before might not be powerful enough, and one might not be sufficient, which is why he wanted to ask Lin Moyu to buy one.

Lin Moyu did not know what rank his Boundary Sea World had reached, but regardless, he had three world crystals, which was certainly enough.

It is no wonder those Heavenly Venerables would envy him; the world crystal is exactly the treasure they are all extremely eager to obtain.

A rumbling sound came from the plaza, and the ground vibrated slightly. Lin Moyu felt the plaza begin to rise, leaving the depths of the Boundary Sea.

They were going back!

Chapter 2469: You are very clever, and your luck is also very strong.

Everyone who participated in the boundary sea token event seemed satisfied.

Although there were casualties, the number was small, and no one would pay attention to these dead.

On the Origin Continent and in the Boundary Sea Worlds, countless people die every day.

Most of these people who could become Heavenly Venerables had fought their way out of mountains of corpses and seas of blood; they were accustomed to such things.

Especially during the World Dispute in the Boundary Sea, countless living beings died.

If something like this could affect their Dao Heart, they would not be qualified to become Heavenly Venerables.

Lu Fengyao breathed a sigh of relief. "Finally, we are going back."

She was also very happy. After returning, she would use the world crystal to upgrade her world to the seventh order, and subsequently harvest seventh-order world-class origin.

After preparing for a while longer, she would be able to use the seventh-order world-class origin to advance to the Dao Venerable Realm.

Lin Moyu, however, was not as optimistic as the others at this moment. The chill deep within his soul had not yet dissipated, and the methods of the King of the Boundary Sea made him feel alarmed.

Before truly leaving, it was difficult for Lin Moyu's heart to be at peace.

However, on the surface, Lin Moyu acted as if nothing had happened, appearing as though everything was fine, and even acted somewhat excited and agitated like the others.

Lin Moyu suddenly asked, "Sister Feng Yao, after your Boundary Sea World reaches the seventh order, how do you plan to handle the living beings inside?"

Lu Fengyao chuckled and said, "There are no living beings in my world!"

Lin Moyu was stunned for a moment. No living beings?

Lu Fengyao said, "I considered this problem from the very beginning. The living beings inside are difficult to handle, so I chose another method; there is not a single living being inside."

"I put many, many puppets inside. When it comes time to fight, I just let the puppets go."

"Moreover, my puppets are manufactured using technology-based magic treasures. I can manufacture many, many of them, and when it comes time to fight, I just let them go."

So that was it; using technology-based magic treasures to manufacture puppets to replace living beings. In this way, the problem of how to handle the living beings in the world after the Boundary Sea World reaches the seventh order did not exist.

Most High-level Heavenly Venerables generally harvest origin and carry out acts of world destruction.

Lu Fengyao clearly did not want to do this, which is why she chose another path.

Lu Fengyao transmitted her voice, "Actually, those Heavenly Venerables carrying out acts of world destruction is not a good thing. Sometimes it will involve some karma."

"Too much karma will lead to some unexpected trouble, and at the same time, it will weaken one's fortune. For the sake of the future, it is better not to carry out acts of world destruction."

Lin Moyu knew that Lu Fengyao was saying this for his benefit.

Lin Moyu nodded. "I know. I will be careful when the time comes and see if there is another path to take."

Lu Fengyao gave a hum of acknowledgment. "Of course, if you truly must carry out acts of world destruction, then you must do it cleanly and sever the karma as much as possible."

Lin Moyu nodded to show he understood, and then asked, "Are technology-based magic treasures common on the Origin Continent?"

Lu Fengyao said, "They are alright, not too many. They are things created by those cultivators who believe in technology; they are indeed quite miraculous."

Lin Moyu curiously asked, "Can you tell me more?"

Lu Fengyao shook her head. "I can't. It is too complicated. This is something you can only understand once you go to the Origin Continent yourself and learn about it."

"If you want to know, you can come to the Lufeng Chamber of Commerce at that time and buy some relevant materials to look at."

"However, I must state in advance that it is not cheap. Even if you are a high-level member, you can only get a twenty percent discount. Prepare your money first."

Lin Moyu nodded. "Alright, I will prepare the money."

The so-called money refers to origin crystals.

Lu Fengyao is essentially a businessperson; having feelings and righteousness is one thing, and trading is another; they do not conflict.

After rising for a period of time, the plaza finally stopped. At this moment, Lin Moyu could feel that he had arrived at his previous position, not far from the surface of the Boundary Sea.

The phantom of the King of the Boundary Sea appeared once again. "Everyone, return to your own worlds through the boundary sea token."

His words were like a command; beams of light fell from the sky, landing on everyone.

The boundary sea tokens were automatically activated, forming a ball of light that enveloped each person.

The boundary sea tokens brought them here, and now they were taking them back.

Lu Fengyao stood in the light, revealing a bright smile toward Lin Moyu. "Remember to come find me; this lady will look after you!" Lin Moyu also waved his hand. "I wish Sister Feng Yao a smooth advancement to the Dao Venerable Realm in advance!"

As the words fell, Lu Fengyao disappeared.

The beams of light receded one by one, and the people who came here quickly disappeared, returning to their own Boundary Sea Worlds.

Lin Moyu's expression, however, became grave because he had not left.

Although he was shrouded in light like the others, the boundary sea token did not send him away.

Lin Moyu had a vague, bad premonition in his heart. "Could it be that my storage space has aroused the curiosity of the King of the Boundary Sea?"

"Or could it be that he knows I discovered what he was doing?"

While he was lost in thought, the phantom of the King of the Boundary Sea appeared in the sky again. Two balls of light lit up in the phantom, like a pair of eyes, landing on Lin Moyu.

Lin Moyu's body sank; the gaze of a Dao Venerable brought him immense pressure.

"You are very unique!" A heavy, low voice rang in Lin Moyu's ears.

Lin Moyu's soul jumped, but on the surface, he feigned calmness. "Do you have any instructions for keeping me here?"

The King of the Boundary Sea said in a low voice, "Do not be afraid. This King is not here to settle accounts with you, even if you have discovered this King's secret, it does not matter."

Lin Moyu gave a wry smile. He had tried his best to be careful, but in the end, he still could not hide from a Dao Venerable. However, Lin Moyu did not feel any killing intent from the King of the Boundary Sea, which also meant that this matter was still negotiable.

Lin Moyu tried to remain calm and feigned weakness. "What do you want me to do? Should I swear another soul oath?"

The King of the Boundary Sea seemed to be examining Lin Moyu. Lin Moyu could feel his gaze changing, as if he wanted to see right through him.

Fortunately, he stopped in time and did not take any further action. "You are a clever person. Among the people this King has met, there are very few like you."

"Clever people often live longer, and clever people often have better luck."

Lin Moyu was very humble. "You flatter me. There is a saying in my world: one can be clever for a lifetime but foolish for a moment, and cleverness can be a detriment to the clever. Sometimes I feel that being too clever is not a good thing; if not handled well, it might instead bring about a disaster."

The King of the Boundary Sea let out a soft snort, which seemed to be a laugh. "You will not. I have not finished what I was saying just now. Your fortune is very strong; you are also one of the people with the strongest fortune I have ever seen."

"You are only a Sovereign, but your fortune can already rival some Dao Venerables. This also shows that in the future, you are very likely to achieve the Dao Venerable Realm, and not just an ordinary Dao Venerable."

The words of the King of the Boundary Sea seemed to be explaining the reason why he did not kill him. It was because he was clever and had sufficiently strong fortune. Lin Moyu had already understood the subtext of his words; he definitely had something he wanted him to do.

Lin Moyu smiled and said, "If you have something to say, please say it. This junior will definitely do his best."

The King of the Boundary Sea said, "You do not have that ability right now; you must wait until you become a Dao Venerable. This King only wants a promise from you: after you become a Dao Venerable, when this King comes to find you, do not refuse."

"Of course, this King will not let you do anything that leads to death, and this King can give you a sufficiently generous reward, a reward enough to make all Dao Venerables envious."

Lin Moyu thought to himself, "He has started making empty promises."

He knew that the task the King of the Boundary Sea wanted him to do would not be simple. But right now, he had no right to refuse.

On the surface, he still showed an interested expression. "A reward that would make all Dao Venerables envious—are you sure there is really no danger?"

His appearance looked somewhat moved, yet he also appropriately expressed some hesitation. At this moment, Lin Moyu pushed his acting skills, which had been honed for many years, to the limit.

Chapter 2470: Dao Contention, Walking Alone.

After receiving assurances from the King of the Boundary Sea time and again, Lin Moyu finally confirmed that the task the King of the Boundary Sea wanted him to do was not completely without danger.

In other words, it was very dangerous for others, but for himself, it was something he could handle. The reason was that he was sufficiently clever and his fortune was strong enough.

With the two combined, the King of the Boundary Sea felt that he could complete the task he wanted to entrust to him.

Lin Moyu also subtly asked why the King of the Boundary Sea did not go himself. There were so many Dao Venerables in the Sea Clan, why not go?

The answer he got, however, left Lin Moyu speechless. The answer from the King of the Boundary Sea was very simple, just three words: "Not suitable."

He did not explain the specific reason, but this answer was enough. The three words could express many meanings: was it that the level of intelligence was not suitable, the fortune was not suitable, or perhaps the race was not suitable? Anything was possible; he would only know when the time came.

Under these circumstances, Lin Moyu had only one choice, which was to agree to the King of the Boundary Sea.

Moreover, from the conversation, Lin Moyu discovered that although the King of the Boundary Sea's methods were cold and ruthless, he could still be considered fair.

Just like this matter; as long as you can remain conscious and not fall into a coma, he will not use force. Otherwise, with his strength, he could completely forcibly strip away one's intelligence, or even change one's memories.

Yet he did not do so, so Lin Moyu felt that the King of the Boundary Sea was fair to a certain extent.

For such a person, it was not entirely impossible to deal with him.

After agreeing to the King of the Boundary Sea, Lin Moyu made a new soul oath not to divulge everything that happened today.

Finally, the King of the Boundary Sea had Lin Moyu leave a soul mark on the plaza, so that he could find Lin Moyu through the soul mark when the time came.

At the same time, as Lin Moyu's realm improved, the soul mark would also change. The day Lin Moyu reached the Dao Venerable Realm, he would be able to know.
