“Do you have any relevant information?” Hearing the words “hell fragment,” Clan Leader Su Mou’s expression changed abruptly.

His eyes narrowed involuntarily. Seeing his reaction, Lin Moyu knew.

He definitely knew about the hell fragment. Clan Leader Su Mou suppressed the trembling in his heart and said in a low voice,

"Mr. Lin is actually looking for this thing?" Lin Moyu said, "Yes."

"The hell fragment is just one of the things I am looking for; other things can be discussed in the future."

Clan Leader Su Mou asked, "Is Mr. Lin going to the Western Continent just for the Nether Clan's hell fragment?"

Lin Moyu smiled. "Clan Leader Su, you really do know. That's correct."

"I am indeed going to the Western Continent for the hell fragment. Besides the Nether Clan,"

"does Clan Leader Su have news of any other hell fragments?" Clan Leader Su Mou thought for a moment and shook his head gently.

"I don't have specific information, but I once saw some records that might be able to provide Mr. Lin with some clues."

"Countless years ago, it seems someone else also searched for hell fragments. When I return to the clan,"

"I will search the records carefully." Lin Moyu said, "Good."

"I hope to have some findings." Clan Leader Su Mou nodded. "I will definitely search carefully."

Since he could say this, Lin Moyu knew he must have seen relevant records.

It was just that he had no intention of looking for hell fragments, so naturally, he wouldn't pay too much attention to them.

In fact, for dangerous things like hell fragments, even just the name carried the power of fear.

It could make people deliberately ignore its existence. The flying boat flew rapidly, crossing the vast land of the Northern Continent.

Finally, they arrived at the territory of the Celestial Fox Clan. In the border area, Lin Moyu saw a city.

The city was not large in scale, but it exuded an ancient aura, clearly having been baptized by the passage of time.

Clan Leader Su Mou introduced, "This city is called North Fox City; it is our Celestial Fox Clan's northernmost city."

"Its history spans over a million years, through a million years of wind and rain."

"After several renovations, this city still retains its former appearance. A million-year-old ancient city,"

"truly possesses a unique aura. This is an aura from the ages, not something an ordinary city could have."

Lin Moyu had seen many ancient cities, but few could compare to North Fox City.

The Celestial Fox Clan had never been affected by war for countless years, so the cities within their territory

could possess this aura seasoned by time. It wasn't just North Fox City; the entire Celestial Fox Clan,

including the vegetation and the land itself, radiated a similar aura. The flying boat did not stop.

North Fox City instantly receded behind them and disappeared. Up ahead,

more cities appeared in their line of sight. Every city radiated a vast and ancient aura.

Lin Moyu said, "This is truly an ancient land." Clan Leader Su Mou said with a touch of pride,

"Within our clan, there are 1,080 cities like North Fox City."

"Adding in the villages of all sizes, our Celestial Fox clansmen number in the tens of billions."

Tens of billions of clansmen; they were truly a great clan worthy of the name. The other royal clans did not have so many people.

It would take two or three of them combined to compare. Such a huge base could bring powerful luck.

At the same time, it could also give birth to countless powerhouses. Normally, the stronger the luck,

the more powerhouses would be born, and the more powerhouses there were, the more they would feed back into the luck,

making the luck even stronger, eventually forming a positive cycle that led the entire race toward its peak.

However, now, due to some special reasons, this positive cycle had been broken.

The path to the peak was cut off, and the Celestial Fox Clan had fallen into its greatest crisis in history. The flying boat passed over city after city.

Lin Moyu saw that besides being ancient, every city possessed soaring luck.

The Celestial Fox Clan's luck was extremely strong, much stronger than that of the Golden Lion Clan and the Lei Guang Purple Pattern Clan. It was the race with the strongest luck he had ever seen.

Finally, an incomparably huge city appeared in his line of sight. The entire city lay across the mountain range.

It stretched for hundreds of thousands of miles, carved and built with craftsmanship that seemed divine. Looking from afar,

the entire mountain range had become a Celestial Fox. The mountain peaks on it became the head, fur, and body of the Celestial Fox,

as well as its nine tails, all vivid and lifelike. The entire city radiated an ancient aura.

Fused with the power of an origin spirit vein, it spread wantonly between heaven and earth. It was certain

that beneath this city named Nine-Tailed, there was a high-grade origin spirit vein. This origin spirit vein

was at least eighth-grade, though it should not yet be ninth-grade. Once an origin spirit vein reached the ninth grade,

there would be phenomena above the spirit vein. But even if it wasn't ninth-grade, Lin Moyu guessed it wouldn't be too far from it.

Lin Moyu exclaimed, "Among all the cities I, Lin, have seen, this city is truly the best."

Clan Leader Su Mou nodded. "This city is the painstaking work of our clan over countless years."

"The Demon Emperor once praised this city as being the number one on the Origin Continent today." Lin Moyu asked,

"This city is called Nine-Tailed; does it have any special meaning?"

Clan Leader Su Mou said,

"Legend has it that our Celestial Fox Clan's ancestor had nine tails. Nine tails is the highest realm of our Celestial Fox Clan."

"It is a pity that the descendants are useless, and no one can reach this legendary realm anymore."

"The Celestial Fox Clan's ancestor was known as the Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox, an incomparably powerful existence comparable to the Demon Emperor."

Lin Moyu smiled. "Perhaps there will be a chance in the future."

Chapter 3166: Misfortune, Not Advancing Means Collapse

"Things are hard to predict; anything can happen." Clan Leader Su Mou smiled.

"Thank you for your kind words, Mr. Lin." As they got closer and closer to Nine-Tailed City, Lin Moyu saw the luck belonging to Nine-Tailed City.

As the capital of the Celestial Fox Clan, Nine-Tailed City's luck also represented the Celestial Fox Clan's luck. Lin Moyu suddenly said in a low voice,

"Stop the flying boat." Lin Moyu's words were like an order. Clan Leader Su Mou immediately ordered the flying boat to stop.

The flying boat, which had been speeding along, slammed on the brakes and stopped in mid-air almost instantly.

Fortunately, everyone in the flying boat was a cultivator, and at least a Dao Venerable, so they could react to the sudden change in speed.

If it had been ordinary people, they would have been thrown into a mess long ago. The flying boat stopped in mid-air.

Lin Moyu looked toward Nine-Tailed City, his eyes slightly narrowed, and a hazy mist emanated from them.

Clan Leader Su Mou sensed Lin Moyu's change and didn't ask more, just waited quietly.

He knew that Lin Moyu must have discovered something. The mist on Lin Moyu's body became thicker and thicker.

Gradually, his entire person was hidden within the mist. Clan Leader Su Mou silently retreated a few steps,

avoiding the mist emanating from Lin Moyu. He was afraid that if he touched the mist, it would affect Lin Moyu.

Now that it concerned the life and death of his own race, he dared not be the least bit negligent. If he were to enter the mist now, he would be able to see

that Lin Moyu's body had become ethereal, and at the same time, a similarly ethereal Great Dao appeared at Lin Moyu's feet.

It was as if it were being stepped on by him. To step on the Great Dao—if such a thing were to spread,

it would definitely shock the world. Lin Moyu saw the luck of Nine-Tailed City, which was equivalent to seeing the luck of the Celestial Fox Clan.

He instinctively realized something was wrong, and subsequently activated his Great Dao True Body of Luck, wanting to use the power of the Great Dao

to see more clearly. Above Nine-Tailed City, luck soared into the sky.

The strength of the Celestial Fox Clan's luck was also extremely rare. In Lin Moyu's eyes,

the Celestial Fox Clan's luck had already begun to shimmer with purple light, while simultaneously exuding a noble aura—a purple hue.

Luck turning purple was indescribably noble. Lin Moyu had seen this kind of luck before.

On the Three Ancestors and the Demon Emperor, their luck was shining. At that time, Lin Moyu realized that luck with purple

might be a sign of the Great Dao Realm. Now, in the Celestial Fox Clan's luck,

a purple hue had also appeared. This meant that the Celestial Fox Clan very likely would produce a powerhouse surpassing the Ninth Realm of Dao Venerable.

Or rather, their ancestor who had disappeared for many years might reappear.

Regardless of the reason, as long as they could maintain this luck, the Celestial Fox Clan would definitely be able to advance further.

Moreover, under this kind of luck, most of the Celestial Fox clansmen would have endless good fortune.

Sometimes, even if there was danger, they could turn bad luck into good fortune.

Unless they were particularly unlucky. Originally speaking, having such luck

should be a very good thing, but for some reason, Lin Moyu felt a trace of something wrong.

In the deepest part of the luck, Lin Moyu saw a negligible speck of black—misfortune!

In the deepest part of the luck, misfortune appeared. Currently, the misfortune was still very weak.

It would not have too much impact on the entire race, but since the misfortune had truly appeared, it meant

the Celestial Fox Clan would face a calamity. Misfortune was two-sided; if they survived it,

they would soar into the sky, but if they could not survive it, they would fall to the bottom of the valley.

Sometimes, misfortune was a test. Lin Moyu stared at the black spot in the luck.

He hoped to see something from the misfortune. Misfortune was also

different. Ordinary people could not see luck, and even if they saw it with the help of magical treasures,

they could not see misfortune. Even if they had some secret technique and saw the misfortune,

they might not necessarily recognize it. Only people like Lin Moyu who had comprehended the Great Dao of Luck could clearly see the misfortune.

If one's spiritual perception was sharp enough, one could also analyze the source of the misfortune from within it.

In Lin Moyu's view, there were only two kinds of misfortune: the first was man-made,

and the second was naturally occurring. The former went without saying; that meant someone was targeting the Celestial Fox Clan.

But the land of the Northern Continent was entirely under the rule of the Demon Emperor; who would dare to take action against the Celestial Fox Clan?

The second kind was naturally occurring. This meant that the Celestial Fox Clan's luck would welcome a Great Exam of sublimation; success meant standing firm,

failure meant collapse. The black spot of misfortune gradually enlarged in Lin Moyu's eyes, and Lin Moyu saw it more and more clearly.

Finally, he saw something strange at the very center of the misfortune.

There was actually another tiny black spot. This black spot was extremely tiny, so small that it could be completely ignored.

If luck were compared to an ocean, then the misfortune would be a reef in the ocean, not an island.

It was a reef, and the black spot he saw now was, on top of the reef,

an even more insignificant speck of moss. The reason Lin Moyu could discover it was because it was deeper than the misfortune,

and blacker. This kind of black was very profound.

It also brought an inexplicable fear to people. Black Blood!

Lin Moyu thought of Black Blood almost instinctively.

The Black Blood from the Black Blood World was just this profound, but this was luck.

How could Black Blood exist here? Black Blood was real, and luck was illusory.

The two should not have any intersection, but what if it were really possible?

Lin Moyu's heart was stirred with stormy waves.

If it really were the Black Blood World, then things would be troublesome. Back then, those who invaded the Origin Continent

were not just the Outer Domain Celestial Gods; there were also powerhouses from the Black Blood World. The Outer Domain Celestial Gods still had remnants in the Origin Continent.
