Chapter 441: Antares is Not Omniscient
Antares really couldn’t think of anything good to trade.
Lin Moyu said, "I have a few questions. Can you answer them for me? Of course, this can also be part of the trade."
Lin Moyu thought for a moment and made his request.
Anything that is not lacking is of no value.
The more something is lacking, the higher its value.
For a person dying of thirst in the desert, water is far more valuable than gold.
Lin Moyu was in such a situation now. Things he didn’t lack were of no value to him.
Since Antares mentioned an equal exchange and couldn’t come up with anything, Lin Moyu naturally wouldn’t hesitate to make his request.
He had many questions in his mind, and perhaps he could get some answers from Antares.
Antares lifted its eyelids, looking a bit uninterested, "Ask away."
Lin Moyu asked, "Can the wild beasts in the Desolate Void be killed? How can they be killed?"
Antares seemed a bit intrigued by Lin Moyu’s question, "You’ve been to the Desolate Void?"
Lin Moyu nodded, "I went there for my second transition."
Antares laughed heartily, "Your teacher is quite bold. Aren’t they afraid of encountering the Wild Beast King?"
Lin Moyu said, "We did encounter it."
Antares’ voice turned low, "It seems you were lucky to encounter the Wild Beast King and still come back alive. Wild beasts can indeed be killed, and it’s not difficult."
"As long as the power reaches the level of a god and the purity is sufficient, you can kill wild beasts."
Lin Moyu shook his head, "But my teacher is already level 95, and he can only repel wild beasts, not even injure them."
"Hah! A bunch of useless people. Even at level 99, they are still useless. I’ve answered this question. Next."
Lin Moyu remembered the answer: sufficient purity.
He thought of how Yan Kuangsheng had injured the wild beast using the power of killing intent.
Now Yan Kuangsheng seemed to have gained some insight, possibly enhancing the purity of his killing intent.
The two concepts should be the same.
Lin Moyu continued, "I have a skill that can summon an Elemental Lich using elemental materials. But when I use legendary materials, the Elemental Lich self-destructs!"
Lin Moyu had some guesses about this issue.
But it was best to confirm, as he wasn’t sure if his guess was correct.
Antares was even more interested, "Oh? Such a thing exists? Show me."
Lin Moyu immediately took out a piece of solidified Fire God essence blood.
A sharp cry came from above, filled with anger.
The [Ancient Phoenix] bared its teeth at Lin Moyu, as if saying, "That’s mine."
Antares glanced at the [Ancient Phoenix], "Little Black, be quiet. There’s plenty of this stuff underground."
Hearing Antares’ words, the [Ancient Phoenix] reluctantly quieted down, but its eyes were still full of displeasure.
Lin Moyu used the skill, and flames shot up to the sky, emitting a god-level aura.
A Flame Lich with a god-level aura appeared beside him.
The flames on the Flame Lich were powerful but chaotic, quickly turning violent.
Lin Moyu immediately ordered it to run far away, as it was about to self-destruct.
Before it could run far, Antares lightly raised its claw.
A giant claw descended from the sky, grabbing the Flame Lich.
Boom!
Seconds later, the Flame Lich self-destructed in Antares’ claw.
But none of the explosive energy leaked out, and Antares’ expression didn’t change at all.
Such a small explosion wasn’t even enough to scratch it.
Lin Moyu once again witnessed its unimaginable power.
After the self-destruction, a Flame Lich restored to platinum level flew back.
The Flame Lich’s self-destruction wasn’t a suicide; it was just a way to release uncontrollable energy.
Antares said in a low voice, "The power is decent, barely reaching level 90, which is at the pseudo-god level according to your human standards."
Lin Moyu agreed with this assessment.
He looked at Antares, hoping for a definitive answer.
Antares continued, "The reason for the self-destruction is that the skill level is too low, and the material level is too high. That’s why legendary weapons can only be used after the third transition at level 70."
With Antares’ answer, Lin Moyu felt reassured.
Once he reached level 70, he could summon an Elemental Lich with god-level power.
By then, he would be able to confront some weaker demon kings head-on.
But for now...
If he could gather enough solidified Fire God essence blood and combine it with the Skeletal Prison, even controlling it for half a second might be enough to fight.
A bold idea formed in Lin Moyu’s mind...
Antares asked, "Any more questions?"
Lin Moyu immediately asked, "Can the corpse poison in the Corpse Realm be neutralized?"
Antares showed a look of surprise, "You even know about the Corpse Realm?"
It found that this little guy in front of it had too much experience, even more than some god-level experts.
Lin Moyu said, "I went there once and almost died."
Antares was shocked, "You actually went there?"
It moved closer, taking a deep breath near Lin Moyu, then stared at him, "No, you didn’t just go there; you reached the Life Secret Realm."
"You have the aura of a corpse and the aura of life force."
"Let me think..."
Its gaze seemed to penetrate Lin Moyu’s spiritual world, with a hint of doubt, "Did you obtain the Staff of Creation?"
Lin Moyu knew he couldn’t hide it from Antares. From the moment he mentioned the Corpse Realm, he hadn’t planned to hide it.
A flash of white light, and the Staff of Creation appeared in his hand.
Seeing the Staff of Creation, Antares burst into laughter, "How amusing! You humans fought to the death for the position of the God of Life."
"In the end, none of you succeeded, all dying inside. Serves you right!"
Lin Moyu watched Antares laugh uncontrollably, realizing it knew everything about the past.
From its words, it was clear that even the Staff of Creation and the position of the God of Life were things it disdained.
A bold guess formed in Lin Moyu’s mind.
The Staff of Creation could help a god-level expert become a super-god, yet it didn’t care.
What kind of existence was a super-god in Antares’ eyes?
Could it be stronger than a super-god?
After laughing enough, Antares continued, "I can answer this question. The corpse poison cannot be neutralized. Once poisoned, even a god-level expert will die."
"And the stronger the poisoned person, the stronger the corpse poison."
"That forbidden skill can kill all beings below the super-god level."
Lin Moyu didn’t expect such an answer from Antares.
Was the corpse poison really incurable?
But the Lich General had clearly neutralized the corpse poison.
As long as the Lich General’s level increased, it might even neutralize god-level corpse poison.
"Is it because of my unique nature, or is it because of the special nature of the undead?"
Lin Moyu thought to himself, not mentioning that his Lich General could neutralize the corpse poison.
He also realized that Antares wasn’t omniscient.
There were things it didn’t know.
Antares said, "You were lucky to come back alive from the Corpse Realm. Considering your good luck, I’ll let you ask a few more questions."
Lin Moyu asked, "Can the dead be resurrected?"
"Yes!"
Antares answered confidently, "Can’t you do it? I can sense that you’ve planted a soul mark. Your soul is connected to a certain place. Before you reach the god level, as long as your soul isn’t destroyed, you can be resurrected."
Lin Moyu caught the key point, "What about after reaching the god level?"
"Still possible!" Antares continued, "After reaching the god level, the soul returns to the body, and the mark disappears. If you want to be resurrected after death, it will be very troublesome, but not impossible."
"Like Jiang Yi, he wants to be resurrected."
"Unfortunately, his level is too high, at level 98, half a step to super-god."
"Haha, only I have the ability to resurrect him."
Lin Moyu finally understood that Jiang Yi’s deal with Antares was for resurrection.
It was this hope that kept Jiang Yi’s soul alive until now.
But Jiang Yi’s resurrection wasn’t a bad thing. It would add another half-step super-god to the human race, which was beneficial.
Lin Moyu took a deep breath and asked another question, "How can one become a super-god?"
