Chapter 2467

After carefully examining it, Lin Moyu determined that the area within the seal was just a portion of the Ancient Battlefield. It wasn't large, just a small patch, with a range of about 30,000 to 50,000 li.

Then, three points of light lit up on the map.

These three points of light were the guidance provided by the seal, indicating places where missions could be executed.

Lin Moyu did not immediately go to perform the missions, but instead continued to let the Skeleton Divine General explore.

He wanted the Skeleton Divine General to explore these places thoroughly and form a current map.

Then, he would compare the two maps before taking action.

The number of Skeleton Divine Generals was sufficient, and their exploration speed was fast. They quickly explored the surrounding area. Just as Lin Moyu had anticipated, the map range shown in the seal was exactly 50,000 li.

In other words, the range within which he could currently execute missions was entirely within this 50,000 li radius.

Within this 50,000 li range, there were a total of three missions.

If he wanted to increase the range and obtain more missions, he would have to continue raising his military rank.

"I originally wanted to go to the higher-level areas as soon as possible, but now it seems my plans need to change."

"I'll do the missions first to raise my military rank. Once my rank is high enough, I'll go."

"Participating in the prehistoric war by crossing through time and space with my current identity seems like a rather interesting affair."

Lin Moyu thought to himself while simultaneously selecting the nearest mission point.

This mission point was about 30,000 li away from him, making it the closest of the three.

He unfurled his Wings of Time. Because he held the seal, Lin Moyu could ignore the black winds in the air, allowing his speed to increase significantly.

A short while later, he had crossed 30,000 li and arrived at the mission point indicated by the seal.

The aura here was somewhat strange. Just as Lin Moyu was about to descend to investigate, an aura approached rapidly from the distance!

Chapter 3114: The Easygoing Su Fengze

Anyone capable of flying freely in the Ancient Battlefield Secret Treasury must be someone who, like him, held a seal.

Lin Moyu watched the newcomer with a curious look in his eyes. The other party was very fast, and the distance was closing rapidly.

Soon, Lin Moyu saw the person's appearance clearly.

"So it's someone from the Celestial Fox Clan, no wonder!"

To obtain a seal, it wasn't enough to just have great combat power; one also needed intelligence.

The Demon race was not stupid, at least not in terms of cultivation, because their bloodlines were powerful enough.

However, when it came to handling affairs, their intelligence could only be considered average, especially when encountering things like puzzles; the Demon race was completely hopeless.

But there were two clans that were exceptions.

One was the Azure Wind Wolf Clan, and the other was the Celestial Fox Clan.

Both of these clans were Royal Clans and were recognized by the Demon race as the two most intelligent clans.

If any clan within the Demon race could obtain a seal, it would be these two.

Seeing that the person approaching was from the Celestial Fox Clan, Lin Moyu didn't find it strange.

It was the Dao Venerable from the Celestial Fox Clan who showed a look of surprise when he saw Lin Moyu.

He was not surprised that Lin Moyu was a human, but rather by Lin Moyu's cultivation realm.

A person at the Dao Venerable 3rd Realm was actually able to come here; this was what left him shocked.

Yet Lin Moyu was standing in mid-air, his body shrouded in a faint glow, with all the black winds skirting around him. This confirmed the seal on Lin Moyu's person.

The Celestial Fox Clan Dao Venerable sized up Lin Moyu and asked uncertainly, "Are you the human Dao Venerable who came with the Golden Lion Clan?"

Lin Moyu nodded, "Human, Lin Moyu."

The Celestial Fox Clan Dao Venerable also introduced himself, "Celestial Fox Clan, Su Fengze."

A three-character name implied that he was a collateral descendant within the Celestial Fox Clan.

It was precisely because he was a collateral descendant that his attitude toward Lin Moyu was quite polite, lacking the arrogance of a direct Royal Clan descendant.

Su Fengze said, "Fellow Daoist Lin, this must be your first time entering the Ancient Battlefield Secret Treasury, right?"

Lin Moyu admitted it openly, "Indeed, it is my first time. Fellow Daoist Su must have been here more than once, right?"

Su Fengze said, "This is my fifth time. I didn't expect Fellow Daoist Lin to be able to obtain a seal on his first time in. Truly impressive."

Lin Moyu said, "It was just good luck."

At this moment, Su Fengze took out his seal. His seal was glowing faintly. Lin Moyu also felt his own seal glowing, so he took it out as well.

The two seals resonated with each other, and their glowing frequency and rhythm were exactly the same.

Lin Moyu saw that there was also a "Commander" character on Su Fengze's seal.

Just like him, he was a Ten-Man Commander, having already shed the status of a soldier.

As for whether he was a Ten-Man, Hundred-Man, or even higher Thousand-Man Commander, that was unknown.

However, since the other party had entered several times, and Su Fengze had the cultivation of the Dao Venerable 6th Realm, Lin Moyu felt he was at least a Hundred-Man Commander.

At this, Su Fengze let out an exclamation, "You're actually already a Ten-Man Commander."

Lin Moyu was somewhat surprised, "Just a Ten-Man Commander."

Su Fengze turned his seal over, "I am also just a Ten-Man Commander. You've only just entered the Secret Realm for the first time; how could you possibly have been promoted to Ten-Man Commander already?"

Su Fengze suddenly realized his emotions were somewhat out of control and immediately changed his tone, "Fellow Daoist Lin, are you really here for the first time? Why does Su feel that is hard to believe?"

This was said half-jokingly. Lin Moyu couldn't help but laugh, "Lin is truly here for the first time; it was just good luck."

Su Fengze looked at Lin Moyu, light dancing in his eyes, "Fellow Daoist Lin's luck is indeed very good."

Lin Moyu recalled some information about the Celestial Fox Clan.

The bloodline of the Celestial Fox Clan was somewhat special; they possessed a unique ability within their bloodline to see the luck of others.

However, not all members of the Celestial Fox Clan could obtain this ability, but any Celestial Fox who did obtain it possessed a very strong bloodline.

From this, it seemed Su Fengze's bloodline power must be very strong.

He was currently at the Dao Venerable 6th Realm and would very likely reach the Ninth Realm of Dao Venerable in the future. At that time, he would transition from a collateral descendant to a direct descendant, and the entire collateral branch he belonged to would benefit.

While thinking of this information, Lin Moyu also thought of another matter.

The Celestial Fox Clan loved to make friends with anyone who had good luck. It seemed that Su Fengze's good attitude toward him had something to do with his own luck.

At this point, Su Fengze turned his seal over as well. The other side was engraved with the character "Ten," representing that he was also a Ten-Man Commander.

Su Fengze said, "Su was lucky enough to obtain this seal during my second entry into the Ancient Battlefield Secret Treasury, becoming a member of the Divine Talisman Army."

"Later, I was promoted to a First-Class Soldier on my third time, and only on my fourth time did I get promoted to Ten-Man Commander."

"This is my fifth time, and Su is still a Ten-Man Commander. I never imagined that Fellow Daoist Lin would not only obtain the Divine Talisman Army seal on his first time in, but also get promoted to Ten-Man Commander."

"Fellow Daoist Lin is not just lucky; I suspect your true strength is also unfathomable."

His words were filled with sincerity, as if he really wanted to be friends. Lin Moyu did not detect even a hint of jealousy.

Lin Moyu said, "Fellow Daoist Su is too kind. May I ask what Fellow Daoist Su's serial number is?"

Su Fengze flipped his seal, "Su is number nine. If I am not mistaken, Fellow Daoist Lin should be number twelve."

Lin Moyu looked slightly stunned, "How did Fellow Daoist Su know that?"

When Su Fengze said this, Lin Moyu already had some answers in his heart.

Su Fengze being able to state his serial number so accurately meant that number ten and number eleven were likely people Su Fengze knew.

It was even highly likely that they were members of the Celestial Fox Clan.

In other words, members of the Celestial Fox Clan knew about the Divine Talisman Army and the true method for entering the Ancient Battlefield Secret Treasury, but they just hadn't spoken about it.

There was even a possibility that everyone who had previously obtained a seal came from the Celestial Fox Clan.

Su Fengze did not hide it, "Because number ten and number eleven are both members of our Celestial Fox Clan."

This answer was the same as what Lin Moyu had guessed.

Su Fengze smiled again, "Fellow Daoist Lin is very smart; you must be wondering if this secret is monopolized by our Celestial Fox Clan."

Upon hearing this, Lin Moyu had the answer in his heart and shook his head gently, "The noble clan should not have monopolized this secret."

Su Fengze said, "Indeed, we did not monopolize it. About 100,000 years ago, we were the first to discover this secret, and at the time, we had already reported this matter to the Demon Emperor."

"The Demon Emperor summoned the clan leaders of the Ten Royal Clans. After deliberation, it was decided that every time the Ancient Battlefield Secret Treasury opens, the clan leaders of the Ten Royal Clans would select some suitable candidates to try and join the Divine Talisman Army."

"Unfortunately, in the last 100,000 years, only eleven people have truly succeeded. Furthermore, our Celestial Fox Clan occupied eight of those spots, while the other three belonged to the Azure Wind Wolf Clan."

"As for the other eight Royal Clans, not a single one has successfully obtained a seal."

When saying this, Su Fengze's tone was flat, but Lin Moyu still detected a hint of pride.

Clearly, he was very proud of his clan and, at the same time, felt a bit of disdain toward the other eight Royal Clans.

Aside from the Celestial Fox Clan and the Azure Wind Wolf Clan, the fact that no one from the eight Royal Clans had successfully obtained a seal in 100,000 years was indeed quite embarrassing.

Lin Moyu was very clear that to obtain a seal, one needed not only sufficient strength but also to be sufficiently intelligent and careful.

Those Royal Clans did not lack strength; there would always be a few geniuses capable of fighting across realms.

But intelligence and carefulness were exactly the things they lacked the most.

As such, this was not surprising.

Since Su Fengze was so easy to talk to, Lin Moyu took the liberty to ask, "Fellow Daoist Su, could you tell me in detail about the Divine Talisman Army?"

Chapter 3115: A Very Interesting Guy

Although Lin Moyu considered himself thick-skinned, he was still three-tenths testing the waters when asking, and he was prepared to be refused.

After all, the questions he asked already touched upon some secrets; it would be normal for Su Fengze not to tell him.

But unexpectedly, Su Fengze said a lot, telling Lin Moyu many things about the seal.

Lin Moyu then took the opportunity to ask some new questions, and Su Fengze answered them one by one.

Through his interaction with him, Lin Moyu understood why there was no information about the seal in the materials Clan Leader Jin Mie had given him.

Because in the last 100,000 years, no one in the Golden Lion Clan had ever obtained a seal.

100,000 years was not short; this information had almost been forgotten by them, so naturally, it wouldn't be in the materials.

In the eyes of the Golden Lion Clan, they might have long since given up on matters regarding the seal.

It wasn't just the Golden Lion Clan; apart from the Celestial Fox Clan and the Azure Wind Wolf Clan, the other eight Royal Clans had basically given up on acquiring seals.

Not only had they given up, but even the Azure Wind Wolf Clan did not place too much importance on this matter; the last time they obtained a seal was tens of thousands of years ago.

In 100,000 years, they had only obtained three seals, and the highest military rank among them was only a Ten-Man Commander.

As such, it was better to explore the Secret Realm more, as the harvest might be greater.

In the end, among the current Ten Royal Clans, only the Celestial Fox Clan was still working hard to raise their military rank.

In the last 100,000 years, the Celestial Fox Clan had obtained a total of eight seals, of which three people had died, and five people still held seals.

These five people basically came in every time the Ancient Battlefield Secret Treasury opened, accumulating military merit and raising their military rank.

Currently, their Grand Elder had raised his military rank to a Ten-Man Commander. Taking one step further would mean becoming a General.

Generals were divided into nine grades; 9th Grade was the lowest, and 1st Grade was the highest.

Lin Moyu had seen that General in the Secret Realm; he was a 9th Grade General with nearly 20,000 Divine Talisman Army troops under his command.

Lin Moyu asked, "What are the benefits of becoming a 1st Grade General?"

Su Fengze shook his head slightly, "I don't know; no one has ever achieved that."

"The one with the highest military rank in our clan only reached a 6th Grade General, but he died during a trip to the Secret Realm."

His words carried a hint of a sigh. The Ancient Battlefield Secret Treasury was inherently unsafe, and after becoming a member of the Divine Talisman Army, performing various missions increased the danger significantly.

Su Fengze continued, "But there are definitely benefits. According to clan records, that predecessor back then had a cultivation speed that was extremely fast, a hundred times that of ordinary clan members."

"After entering the Ancient Battlefield Secret Treasury once, he advanced from the Dao Venerable 6th Realm to a Seventh Realm Ancestor."

"A thousand years later, he entered the Ancient Battlefield Secret Treasury again and advanced from the Seventh Realm to the Eighth Realm."
