Chapter 2235
Lu Lian took out a bright red stone, which radiated the Power of Origin of the Sun Origin.
The stone and the red silk scarf were almost the exact same color. The Third Ancestor placed the Sun Origin stone on the red silk scarf, and Lin Moyu immediately sensed the Sun Origin inside the stone flowing into the red silk scarf.
The Power of Origin consumed within the red silk scarf was rapidly replenished.
The replenishment speed was not very fast; it was much slower than the formation inside the hurricane warship.
Lin Moyu thought to himself, "Sun Origin stone? I have never heard of this material. What exactly is it?"
Chapter 2250: The Upper Limit and Bottom Line of the Lufeng Chamber of Commerce
Lin Moyu had never heard of the Sun Origin stone material.
Not just him; even Saint Master Gu Hanyu probably didn't know about it. If she did, she definitely would have told him.
Moreover, with the capabilities of Hanshui Holy Land, what material could they not obtain? Unless they simply didn't know about it at all.
The Third Ancestor just tried it out for a moment before returning the red silk scarf to Lin Moyu.
He toyed with the Sun Origin stone. "Do you want it?"
His tone carried a hint of teasing, and he looked at Lin Moyu with a half-smile.
Lin Moyu nodded instinctively. "I do. Name your price?"
The Third Ancestor shook his head. "It's not for sale. In the entire Origin Continent, only we can produce the Sun Origin stone, so this is not for sale."
As expected, getting it wouldn't be that simple.
Lin Moyu said helplessly, "Then please state your conditions."
He knew that since the Third Ancestor asked like that, he would naturally give it to him.
If he wouldn't sell it for origin crystals, then he must be setting conditions.
The Third Ancestor said, "Two conditions. As long as you agree, this old man will provide you with enough Sun Origin stones."
"The first condition: you are not allowed to tell anyone about the Sun Origin stone. No one."
This counts as a condition?
Lin Moyu was slightly stunned, but he agreed hastily.
However, from this condition, he realized that the existence of the Sun Origin stone was of great significance. He estimated that the leaders of some top factions knew about it, and that the Sun Origin stone had an extraordinary meaning.
"The second condition: in the future, you must do something for this old man. That matter might be somewhat dangerous."
Lin Moyu asked, "How dangerous?"
The Third Ancestor thought for a moment. "Thirty percent chance of injury, thirty percent chance of death."
Lin Moyu took a deep breath. A thirty percent probability of death, and the remaining seventy percent chance to survive.
He didn't fear injury; as long as he could live, even the most severe injuries could be recovered from.
If it meant dying once or twice, it wouldn't matter much.
Perhaps for others, it was a thirty percent death probability, but for him, it might be ten percent, or even lower.
The Third Ancestor narrowed his eyes and asked, "Do you agree or not?"
Lin Moyu said, "This junior agrees. Does this junior need to make a soul vow?"
The Third Ancestor laughed heartily. "No need. If you break your word, this old man will come to find you personally. You won't be able to escape."
"Even if you hide under the butt of the King of the Boundary Sea, it would be useless."
The Third Ancestor was very confident in his own strength; even the King of the Boundary Sea couldn't stop him.
The information revealed was immense, leaving Lin Moyu extremely shocked. He had a brand new understanding of the Third Ancestor's strength.
The Third Ancestor's strength was actually even stronger than the King of the Boundary Sea.
Or rather, not weaker than the King of the Boundary Sea.
The Lufeng Chamber of Commerce was hidden very, very deep. It was no wonder that all the top factions in the Southern Continent were so polite to the Lufeng Chamber of Commerce.
The Third Ancestor had Lu Lian take out nine Sun Origin stones, place them in a box, and hand them to Lin Moyu. "Ten Sun Origin stones are already enough for you to use."
"But remember, do not let others know about the existence of the Sun Origin stones, otherwise your troubles will be greater than those of the Son of Taiyin."
"And the people who come to find you will definitely be the top experts from the major factions."
Lin Moyu gave a wry smile. He discovered that he had more and more secrets on him, and he was becoming increasingly unable to see the light of day.
It seemed the best method was to hide in some place and cultivate to the Ninth Realm of Dao Venerable before coming out.
But he also knew that this was not a good solution.
Some things were just like fate had already planned, not under his own control.
After putting away the Sun Origin stones, the Third Ancestor shooed him away again. Under Lu Lian's guidance, Lin Moyu left the place.
Lin Moyu did not leave Shang City; instead, he planned to stay in Shang City for a few days to wander around.
This trading city was magical, especially in the free trade market, where unique items often appeared that were worth checking out.
Lu Lian arranged accommodation for Lin Moyu, which was the small courtyard where Lin Moyu had traded with her previously. She temporarily lent it to Lin Moyu to live in, and it was even free.
Lin Moyu's transaction amount this time had reached a staggering 7 million; the rent for a mere small courtyard was nothing at all.
While seeing Lin Moyu off, Lu Lian condensed another avatar and appeared before the Third Ancestor.
Lu Lian asked, "Third Ancestor, you seem to value him highly."
The Third Ancestor gave an affirmative grunt. "You should have tested his fortune, right? How strong is it?"
Lu Lian nodded. "Very strong."
The Third Ancestor laughed. "Actually, you don't need to test it to know. To be able to become the Son of Taiyin, how could his fortune not be strong?"
Lu Lian said, "He is stronger than the previous few Sons of Taiyin, and much stronger."
The Third Ancestor said "Oh." "Has he reached the point of 'Great Fortune'?"
Lu Lian said, "Not yet, but it should be soon."
The Third Ancestor said, "If he can reach 'Great Fortune,' then the chances will be a bit higher. I hope he won't disappoint this old man."
Lu Lian said, "Should we notify Miss Feng Yao? After all, he is her old friend."
The Third Ancestor said, "Hmm, Feng Yao happens to be here as well, go tell her."
Lin Moyu sat in the small courtyard, pondering this meeting with the Third Ancestor.
The harvest this time was great, and the power of the Third Ancestor made him feel unfathomable…
Moreover, he was the Third Ancestor of the Lufeng Chamber of Commerce; were there also a Second Ancestor, First Ancestor, and so on?
Just how strong the Lufeng Chamber of Commerce was, could not be estimated.
Lin Moyu narrowed his eyes, though his gaze was somewhat unfocused, and he muttered to himself in his heart, "Although I cannot see the upper limit, I have finally touched the bottom line."
"The hurricane warship should be the bottom line of the Lufeng Chamber of Commerce."
"If I am not mistaken, the Lufeng Chamber of Commerce did not just rely on the hurricane warship to start their business; there must be other great secrets within the hurricane warship."
When he mentioned the formation in the hurricane warship, the Third Ancestor had evaded the topic and instead brought out the Sun Origin stone.
The more it was like this, the more obvious it became.
Even if the Third Ancestor said nothing, he had actually given the answer.
He was telling him in another way not to set his sights on the hurricane warship.
Taking out the Sun Origin stone and wrapping it in the red silk scarf caused the Sun Origin within the stone to automatically flow into the red silk scarf.
The consumed power of the red silk scarf was being slowly replenished; although the replenishment speed was not fast, it was very stable.
Lin Moyu continued to ponder, hoping to analyze more information from this.
He handed the Wisdom Heart Bead he bought this time to the Human Sovereign, but the Human Sovereign could not fuse with the Wisdom Heart Bead.
The level of the Wisdom Heart Bead was too high, and the Human Sovereign's own power was too weak to control it.
Moreover, a part of its power had already arrived at Yudao City, which further increased the difficulty of fusion.
The best method was to wait for Lin Moyu to return to Yudao City, and have Lin Moyu lead the process to help the Human Sovereign fuse with the Wisdom Heart Bead.
There was no other way; this matter could only be delayed for now.
The Human Sovereign began to absorb the materials Lin Moyu had bought. For the Human Sovereign, the richer and more detailed the materials, the more complete the information he could analyze, and the higher the accuracy would be.
This batch of materials was incredibly vast; it would be enough for the Human Sovereign to organize for a while.
After thinking about the Lufeng Chamber of Commerce and the Third Ancestor, Lin Moyu began to ponder matters related to the Dongling Empire.
From the Third Ancestor's tone, it could be heard that he was also vigilant against the Dongling Empire and did not want to offend the other party.
Clearly, the Dongling Empire was not as simple as imagined.
What was hidden behind the Dongling Empire?
As a hidden piece on the Eastern Continent, what role was it playing?
Lin Moyu had an impulse to go to the Dongling Empire to see if the new sovereign was Antares.
However, he knew it was not the right time, and he had no idea how to go to the Dongling Empire.
If he really went and the sovereign was not Antares, how would he resolve the situation?
Knock, knock, knock!
The sound of knocking came through the formation.
Chapter 2251: Saint Master Gu Hanyu, do you want to get to know each other?
By this time, the Sun Origin was in the ascendant. Lin Moyu turned off the small courtyard's formation and felt a familiar aura rushing towards him, a smile inevitably appearing on the corner of his mouth.
The tall and slender Lu Fengyao stood gracefully at the entrance of the small courtyard, looking at him with a beaming smile.
Lin Moyu smiled and said, "Sister Feng Yao, why are you here?"
Although the time they had known each other was not long, and they hadn't seen each other for a long time, the two still felt like old friends at first sight, just like friends who had known each other for many years, with no sense of strangeness at all.
Lu Fengyao was still as beautiful as ever, and after becoming a Dao Venerable, her temperament had changed somewhat.
Perhaps it was because she grew up in the Lufeng Chamber of Commerce, held a significant status in the family, and had received family training, so Lu Fengyao always possessed an aura of someone in a high position.
However, this aura did not make people dislike her; instead, it further highlighted her nobility.
Her kind of nobility was different from that of Saint Master Gu Hanyu.
Saint Master Gu Hanyu tended towards being aloof and cold, making people dare not look directly at her.
Lu Fengyao, on the other hand, had a gentle air amidst her nobility; she looked very easy to talk to, but in reality, she carried a sense of distance.
Lu Fengyao walked into the courtyard as if returning to her own home. "So you like living in a place like this."
Lin Moyu smiled. "I don't have any requirements for my living environment."
Lu Fengyao smiled noncommittally and asked, "Didn't we agree that you would come to find me when you arrived at the Origin Continent? Did you forget?"
Lin Moyu smiled. "I looked for you twice. The first time, Sister Feng Yao had not returned yet, and the second time, Sister Feng Yao was in seclusion, breaking through to Dao Venerable."
Lu Fengyao said "Oh." "The third time, it's my turn to come find you. Do you have time? Let me take you around Shang City."
"I would love to!" Lin Moyu naturally agreed readily.
Lu Fengyao led Lin Moyu towards the northwest side of Shang City, saying as they walked, "There isn't much worth seeing in other places; the most interesting place in Shang City is the free market in the northwest, where you can always see many fun things."
A hint of interest arose in Lin Moyu's heart. "I wonder what kind of fun things?"
Lu Fengyao said, "Have you seen an argument? The kind where they curse at each other but cannot make a move."
Lin Moyu chuckled. "Wouldn't that just turn into street brawling?"
Lu Fengyao immediately denied Lin Moyu's statement. "It's not the same as ordinary street brawling. They cannot use their cultivation, but they can use it on their volume, and their voices are super loud."
"Especially when there is a difference in realm, someone of a higher realm can curse someone of a lower realm until they vomit blood."
It turned out it could be like this, using cultivation on the volume to strengthen one's voice, but not being able to use the voice to attack, only to suppress.
To force a cultivator into a mental breakdown and vomit blood just by cursing—such a scene was indeed rare to see.
Clearly, such things were not uncommon, and judging by Lu Fengyao's expression, she had obviously seen it quite a few times.
