Chapter 380: Extortion, Bai Yiyuan is a Professional
The three god-level experts of the Dongfang family had no intention of going out to snatch it. Lin
First, they didn’t dare, and second, it was useless.
Lin Moyu’s identity was there, unless they could do it flawlessly.
Moreover, they all knew that Lin Moyu wouldn’t really die.
Even if they killed Lin Moyu, he could ultimately be resurrected in the Soul Palace.
Unless it was in a special place like the Corpse Realm, separated by two worlds and completely sealed, then death would be real death.
Otherwise, even in the Ancient Battlefield or the Abyssal World, Lin Moyu could be resurrected.
It was precisely because of this that Meng Anwen and others were so agitated this time.
They were even willing to fight to the death with the Dongfang family.
The second reason was indeed useless.
Without the Life Core, the Genesis Scepter was just a piece of junk.
Dongfang Yao also said that she couldn’t even touch the Genesis Scepter.
They weren’t fools; they wouldn’t do something with no benefit.
Dongfang Yi said in a deep voice, "Let’s rest for two days. In a couple of days, Yao’er and I will go see Lin Shenjian."
For over a month, the Divine Summer Tower had been standing in Xia Jing Academy.
Previously, when the Divine Summer Tower appeared, it was only for a few days.
It had never stayed for such a long time.
Every day, many people came to observe the Divine Summer Tower. As one of the three divine towers of the Divine Summer Empire, it was full of legends.
There was always a surge of energy outside the Divine Summer Tower, like a barrier that made it only possible to observe from a distance, not up close.
But today, the Divine Summer Tower suddenly disappeared, and many who came to observe it were disappointed.
The White God’s Residence returned to its usual appearance.
Meng Anwen lay comfortably on a chair, his eyes slightly closed, looking very relaxed.
Bai Yiyuan and Yan Kuangsheng each sat in their own places, occasionally bickering.
Lin Moyu was serving tea and water for the three of them.
He had already recounted his journey in the Corpse Realm in detail, including many secrets that even the Dongfang family didn’t know.
Who could know the significance of that great battle better than the Goddess of Life?
Lin Moyu also took out the Genesis Scepter.
Unfortunately, like Dongfang Yao, the three of them could only look but not touch.
No one but Lin Moyu could touch the Genesis Scepter.
Bai Yiyuan said, "If we can find the Life Core, Xiaoyu’s chances of becoming a super-god-level expert will be much higher."
Meng Anwen thought for a moment and said in a low voice, "I don’t think it’s a good thing. External objects can only be used, not relied upon."
Lin Moyu understood the meaning behind his words.
Even if he could find the Life Core and fully restore the Genesis Scepter, relying on external objects was not the best choice.
Yan Kuangsheng raised an eyebrow, "Old Meng is right. External objects are not to be relied upon. No matter what, you must rely on yourself."
"However, the Genesis Scepter should be a good mythic-level equipment. We can check its attributes when the time comes."
Mythic-level equipment, surpassing legendary-level, extremely powerful and precious.
The entire human race had only two pieces.
Lin Moyu said softly, "Teacher, don’t worry. I won’t rely on external objects."
His profession wouldn’t allow him to rely on external objects even if he wanted to.
After the second job change to Necromancer Lord, he was almost repelled by all equipment.
Lin Moyu was also troubled by what kind of equipment he could use.
Now he truly relied entirely on himself.
Lin Moyu asked, "Teacher, many of my skeletons died this time, some were directly killed, and my talent failed."
Bai Yiyuan said, "That’s normal. Maybe their talent has this effect."
Yan Kuangsheng continued, "Or maybe their attack was strong enough to sever your talent connection. Summon a skeleton."
Lin Moyu summoned a skeleton as instructed.
Yan Kuangsheng casually swung a hand knife.
A massive blade aura shot out, wrapped in Yan Kuangsheng’s terrifying killing intent, sweeping through the skeleton.
The skeleton instantly exploded, destroyed in a flash.
Lin Moyu was shocked. His skeleton was killed so easily?
The All-Encompassing Connection talent had no effect at all.
"Teacher, how did you do that?" Lin Moyu asked.
Yan Kuangsheng said, "Your talent is called All-Encompassing Connection. I just need to sever the connection, and your talent will fail."
"In the end, your skeletons are too weak, not high enough level."
Lin Moyu understood.
Whether the opponent’s talent was strong enough or their attack was high enough, they could bypass his talent and directly destroy the skeletons.
In other words, he was still too weak.
Meng Anwen said in a low voice, "According to Xiaoyu, those guys in the Corpse Realm are not that scary. The only real trouble is the corpse poison."
"Our ancestors sealed the Corpse Realm mainly to prevent the spread of corpse poison."
Lin Moyu asked, "Teacher, even god-level healers can’t neutralize corpse poison?"
Meng Anwen shook his head, "Low-level corpse poison can be neutralized, but not high-level."
According to Dongfang Yao, if Lin Moyu could neutralize corpse poison, he should help her save someone.
It seemed that someone in her family was infected with high-level corpse poison.
Otherwise, with their family’s influence, they should be able to find a god-level healer.
"Teacher, is it possible for someone to be resurrected after death?" Lin Moyu thought of the god-level powerhouses who saved him at the end.
They were dead but still alive, their will unextinguished.
Bai Yiyuan said, "Unless they leave a soul imprint, their soul can return to the imprint after death, then they can be resurrected."
"But for god-level experts... once they’re dead, they’re dead. There’s no chance."
Lin Moyu didn’t understand why god-level experts couldn’t be resurrected.
Yan Kuangsheng stood up and patted Lin Moyu’s shoulder, "You’ll understand in the future."
Bai Yiyuan also stood up and patted Lin Moyu’s shoulder, "This time you were lucky. Be more careful in the future."
"In a couple of days, Dongfang Yi will definitely come to apologize. I’ll help you extort him."
"The Dongfang family is the royal family, ruling the empire for so many years. They have plenty of good stuff."
"For the next few days, go outside. Whether you rest or clear dungeons, just don’t show up here, and definitely don’t come back."
Meng Anwen and Bai Yiyuan had been together for many years, so he understood Bai Yiyuan’s meaning, "It’s better if you’re not here. That way, Old Bai can extort them more smoothly."
Yan Kuangsheng didn’t argue this time, "Indeed, when it comes to extortion, this guy is a pro."
They all thought Lin Moyu was too soft-hearted and wouldn’t demand enough compensation.
This was a rare opportunity, and they didn’t want to miss it.
With Bai Yiyuan and Yan Kuangsheng, they could definitely make the Dongfang family bleed.
Lin Moyu was kicked out of the White God’s Residence.
He wasn’t allowed to return for the next few days.
Before leaving, Bai Yiyuan told him to return to the Genesis Academy in half a month, as the ancestral land was about to open.
Lin Moyu returned to Xia Jing Academy, walking through the campus, feeling a sense of disorientation.
After spending over a month in the dark, sunless Corpse Realm, constantly being struck by lightning, it was truly inhumane.
Sometimes, Lin Moyu felt like he was turning into a walking corpse.
Fortunately, he finally made it out.
"Is it really impossible to be resurrected?" Lin Moyu wondered.
According to Bai Yiyuan, it was impossible.
But from what the Goddess of Life said, it didn’t seem entirely impossible.
For some reason, Lin Moyu felt that the Goddess of Life’s words were more credible.
In all things, one must have hope.
As he was thinking, his ears twitched slightly, and a rare smile appeared on his face.
A fragrant breeze wafted into his nose, and someone hugged him from behind.
"You’re back!" Lin Moyu’s voice was gentle, without a trace of coldness.
After killing so many, Lin Moyu’s voice often carried a hint of coldness.
But this time, there was none, not even a little.
There were very few people in the world who could make Lin Moyu speak so gently.
The person behind him was one of them.
"Yes." The response was equally soft, like a gentle kitten.
Ning Yiyi’s head gently rubbed against Lin Moyu’s back.
Fortunately, he had just taken a bath and changed into clean clothes.
When he first returned from the Corpse Realm, he carried the stench of decay, which was extremely unpleasant.
Lin Moyu gently held Ning Yiyi’s soft, smooth hand, enjoying the warmth from behind.
"It’s been a long time. You must be tired." Lin Moyu smiled.
Ning Yiyi nodded, then shook her head, not saying a word.
Lin Moyu turned around and hugged her, "Rest now. Leave the leveling up to me."
Ning Yiyi softly responded, her smile brighter than the sun.
