Chapter 395

Lin Moyu stared at Dongfang Yao for a moment, then nodded slowly.

"That depends on whether this explanation can satisfy him."

Lin Moyu didn't want the country to fall into chaos either; that would benefit neither the citizens nor the human race.

But asking him to let the culprit off for the sake of that? Absolutely impossible.

Lin Moyu didn't consider himself such a selfless person who put the greater good above all else.

A thunderclap echoed in the sky again, illuminating a vast expanse of space.

The torrential rain poured down once more.

Chapter 365: The Only Dual-Class God-Level

This time, it wasn't just rain; there was lightning too.

The lightning, tinged with black within the purple, appeared eerie.

The corrosive power of the rain was clearly stronger, and the acrid stench was unbearable.

Yet, the corpses seemed extremely active in the rain.

Lin Moyu realized that he and Dongfang Yao, being living humans, seemed to have become the brightest existence in the [Corpse Realm].

Corpses would rush towards them from far away.

Lin Moyu felt it must be the aura of living humans that attracted the corpses' attention.

The corpses had a strong desire to attack outsiders like them.

Dongfang Yao knew some information about the [Corpse Realm], but not much.

Along the way, she had already told Lin Moyu everything she knew.

As it stood, Lin Moyu had no clue either.

They could only take it one step at a time.

Boom!

Lightning struck, landing precisely on Lin Moyu.

His Bone Armor blocked the lightning but emitted a faint sound.

The power of the lightning was not weak, far stronger than the rain.

Dongfang Yao cried out, "Are you okay?"

"I'm fine." Lin Moyu had just experienced the Elemental Explosion Dungeon; he was long accustomed to being struck by lightning.

Footsteps sounded; a corpse was rushing toward him through the heavy rain.

Boom!

The sky lit up, and a bolt of lightning fell right onto the corpse.

The corpse's body was shattered, torn to pieces.

Lin Moyu was slightly stunned; why did the lightning strike even the corpses?

It seemed his own experience of being struck was just a matter of luck.

The next second, his expression changed slightly as he saw an unusual sight.

Electric light emerged from the shattered corpse, acting like a tether, pulling the limbs back together and rapidly reconnecting them.

The recomposed corpse was clearly stronger than before.

With a hint of curiosity, he used Detection Spell.

[Low-level Corpse]

[Level: 10]

It was still a low-level corpse, but its level had become 10.

It was indeed much stronger than those he had encountered before.

The hundreds of corpses he had encountered along the way were only level 5; this was the first time he had encountered a level 10 one.

No, it was level 5 before being struck by lightning.

The lightning had facilitated its evolution.

A bold idea suddenly popped into Lin Moyu's mind.

What would happen if he let himself be struck without using Bone Armor?

Of course, this thought only flashed for a moment; in this eerie world, one couldn't experiment without absolute certainty.

No matter how bold or ruthless one was, one couldn't joke with one's own life.

A Skeleton Archmage appeared beside him.

With a loud bang, an Elemental Explosion instantly blasted the newly evolved low-level corpse into slag.

It would regenerate, but it would likely take a long time.

Unknowingly, two days had passed since they arrived in the [Corpse Realm].

There was no day or night here; fortunately, they had communicators to keep track of time.

After a full day of exploration, they finally had some understanding of the [Corpse Realm].

This world was rainy; in the two days, they had traveled about a thousand kilometers and encountered ten heavy rains in total.

The intensity varied; the heavier the rain, the smaller the coverage area.

The lighter the rain, the larger the coverage area.

Two of these were torrential rains, during which lightning would strike.

Lin Moyu had been struck five times, and Dongfang Yao had been struck twice.

Besides striking them, the lightning would also strike the corpses.

Without exception, the corpses struck by lightning evolved, their levels increased, and they became stronger.

Lin Moyu noticed that the lightning didn't just strike the ground; every strike had a target.

And he finally found a path.

Because he saw level 6 and level 7 corpses.

In Lin Moyu's estimation, the closer one got to the center of the world, the higher the level of the corpses should be.

This could be referenced from the Ancient Battlefield and the Abyss World.

The Core Area of the Ancient Battlefield was a concentration point for high-level monsters.

In the Abyss World, the closer one got to the center, the stronger the abyssal flames, and the more powerful demons would gather.

It was highly likely that the [Corpse Realm] was the same.

Following this hypothesis, Lin Moyu used the corpse levels as coordinates and moved forward.

Dongfang Yao felt Lin Moyu's choice was correct, so she followed firmly behind without any objections.

At this point, how could she dare to have an opinion? If it weren't for Lin Moyu, she would have just closed her eyes and waited for death.

Perhaps she would soon become a member of the [Corpse Realm].

…

Dongfang Yao had been missing for two days, and the royal family was in chaos.

In the luxurious palace, Sovereign Dongfang Yi sat on the throne, his eyes filled with anger. "Have you found out?"

Below him, on his left were members of the royal family, and on his right were the imperial elders.

Everyone remained silent.

An imperial elder said, "Your Majesty, we are investigating, but the teleportation array seems to have been tampered with, and we are still sorting it out."

Sovereign Dongfang Yi said in a deep voice, "Two days have passed, and it's still not sorted out? Was it Master Zhang Heyu who went to sort it out?"

The imperial elder replied, "Yes, it was indeed Master Zhang Heyu who went to sort it out, but there are no results yet."

Outside the palace, an old man walked in, leaning on a staff.

He was dressed as a formation master, with formation symbols embroidered on his collar and cuffs.

Seeing the old man, Sovereign Dongfang Yi stood up immediately, followed by everyone else present.

Sovereign Dongfang Yi personally walked over quickly to welcome him. "Master Zhang, how is it? Any results?"

Zhang Heyu shook his head. "I'm sorry, I couldn't find any results. The person who tampered with it is very clever; after the teleportation, they disrupted the array lines."

"Now this teleportation array is a mess, and I can't unravel it."

Sovereign Dongfang Yi knew that setting up a teleportation array was simple, and destroying it was also simple.

But to untangle the threads of a teleportation array, especially to find out the previous teleportation direction and trace any clues, was extremely difficult.

"Is there no other way?" Sovereign Dongfang Yi asked.

Zhang Heyu was the strongest formation master retained by their royal family, a level 89 formation master, just one step away from god-level.

If even he had no way, Sovereign Dongfang Yi couldn't think of anyone else to ask…

Zhang Heyu said, "Perhaps he might have a way."

Sovereign Dongfang Yi asked urgently, "Who?"

Zhang Heyu said in a deep voice, "Meng Anwen, God An, the number one formation master of the human race."

Meng Anwen, known as God An.

The master of the Shenxia Tower.

A big shot on par with Bai Yiyuan.

People only knew God An, but they didn't know his knowledge.

Meng Anwen was too low-key; he rarely appeared in the eyes of the world.

If Zhang Heyu hadn't mentioned it, even Sovereign Dongfang Yi wouldn't have thought of him.

Meng Anwen was not only the number one formation master of the human race but also the number one Alchemist of the human race.

That's right, he was an extremely rare dual-class professional.

Dual-class Professionals were even rarer than legendary-class Professionals, but they could still be seen occasionally.

However, Meng Anwen was the only dual-class professional who had stepped into the god-level.

Sovereign Dongfang Yi thought for a moment. "I will go and invite him."

To invite Meng Anwen, only he could go personally; others were not qualified.

If it were normal times, he might be hard to find, but now Meng Anwen was in charge of the Shenxia Tower, conducting trials.

He could still be found if one tried.

Especially since it wasn't just his daughter who went missing, but also Lin Moyu.

As far as he knew, Lin Moyu had a close relationship with Meng Anwen; Meng Anwen should be willing to help.

Sovereign Dongfang Yi turned into a stream of light and rushed towards Xiajing Academy.

A minute later, he had arrived above Xiajing Academy and saw the Shenxia Tower in the academy from afar.

The trials were still ongoing; after the 500 people served as Lin Moyu's whetstones, Meng Anwen still arranged normal trials for them.

The rewards were even slightly better than last year, which could be considered compensation for them.

Sovereign Dongfang Yi was anxious and couldn't care about much, so he flew over directly.

"God An, Sovereign Dongfang Yi is visiting, please come out for a meeting!"

This shout from Sovereign Dongfang Yi spread throughout the entire Xiajing Academy.

Xiajing Academy was instantly in an uproar!

"Oh my, Sovereign Dongfang Yi!"
