Catastrophic necromancer

**Chapter 811: The Coffin of Slumber, Targeting the Invincible Strong**

Antares kept grumbling and complaining. Lin Muyu noticed that its mood was clearly off.

Lin Muyu asked with concern in his eyes, “What’s wrong with you?”

Antares shook its head, “Nothing!”

Lin Muyu’s voice deepened slightly, “There must be something.”

Antares stared at Lin Muyu, and Lin Muyu stared back at Antares. They locked eyes, each waiting for the other to speak.

Finally, Antares gave in, “It’s nothing really, just that a few guys from the previous era did some rebellious things.”

“These rebellious acts made me very unhappy and caused some damage to this world.”

“Otherwise, your era wouldn’t be so miserable.”

Antares didn’t elaborate, just hinted at the issue. Clearly, it didn’t want to delve into the topic. It was a problem from the previous era, and Antares was a bit angry, but it could only vent to Lin Muyu. Similar things had been mentioned many times before. Antares was full of resentment towards those guys from the previous era.

Lin Muyu didn’t press further and instead continued the previous topic, “I want them to live longer, is there no way?”

Antares glared at Lin Muyu, “You brat, you guessed it already, didn’t you?”

Lin Muyu smiled; he had indeed guessed it. He knew Antares was telling him this for his own good. Since Antares had told him this method, there must be more to it.

Antares said, “When you become an invincible strong, you might be able to defy fate.”

Invincible strong…

Antares explained, and Lin Muyu finally understood what an invincible strong was. It wasn’t a realm or a level, but a title. In the great world, an invincible strong is someone who has mastered a certain law to the extreme. By mastering a law to the extreme, one gains some miraculous abilities. Only then is there a chance to defy fate.

Becoming an invincible strong is extremely difficult. Lin Muyu’s eyes burned with determination, as if a fire was ignited. His soul roared silently, and Antares heard the sound of Lin Muyu’s soul.

“Invincible strong, I will achieve it.”

Lin Muyu clenched his fist, making a cracking sound.

“Teach me how to use the World Core to refine the container, and I’ll do it!” Lin Muyu said firmly, decisively.

He had made his choice; he would become an invincible strong.

The container Antares mentioned was also known as the Coffin of Slumber. It was refined from the World Core and could not be done by anyone else; Lin Muyu had to do it himself. Once the container was refined, it could be stored in the soul world and carried around.

Antares taught Lin Muyu the refining method. Lin Muyu absorbed the World Core into his soul, and then his soul power flowed out, enveloping the World Core. Refining the Coffin of Slumber didn’t require fire or hammering; it used soul power.

During his journey in deep space, Lin Muyu had absorbed a large amount of soul essence, not only improving the quality of his soul but also unknowingly breaking through to level 96 in soul tier. Now Lin Muyu had the ability to drive laws without relying on the split soul method. With a level 96 soul tier and second-tier peak soul quality, his pure soul power far exceeded that of others at the same level.

Lin Muyu had already surpassed other level 96 professionals in terms of soul. He had also met the requirements for refining the Coffin of Slumber.

“First step, strip the World Power.”

The soul power enveloping the World Core suddenly surged, wrapping around the World Power within the World Core and extracting it. The World Power was not needed for refining the Coffin of Slumber. Not only the World Power but also the laws within the World Core had to be completely stripped away. The Coffin of Slumber was absolutely static inside, requiring no energy, truly empty. Only the special substance of the World Core was needed.

As for what was special about this substance, Lin Muyu didn’t know, and neither did Antares. Antares only taught Lin Muyu the refining method passed down by the dragon race. They knew how to do it but not why it worked.

This was Lin Muyu’s first time refining an artifact, and it was soul refining, so he was very careful. Refining in the great world was different from the small world. In the small world, refining was the work of alchemists and blacksmiths. But in the great world, as long as one had the strength, anyone could refine artifacts. Some people had talent or techniques that enhanced their own artifacts. With the same materials, they could create stronger and better artifacts.

Lin Muyu wasn’t aiming for the best or strongest now. The Coffin of Slumber just needed to be usable. Lin Muyu carefully stripped the World Power from the World Core, taking ten days to complete the process. The World Power gathered into a golden light after being extracted.

Antares said softly, “Do you know? This World Power can fetch a good price in the great world.”

Lin Muyu asked curiously, “World Power can be bought and sold?”

Antares laughed, “What’s so strange about that? In the great world, almost anything can be bought and sold.”

“From a piece of material to an entire world. From inanimate objects to living beings, from the lowest slaves to powerful races, everything can be traded.”

“The key is whether you can afford the price. If the price is right, someone might even take on the task of getting the head of an invincible strong.”

“World Power is hard currency. Strong individuals have their own small worlds and want to enhance their world’s strength.”

“Some elders also get small worlds for their juniors and give them some World Power to help them grow.”

The veil of the great world was lifted a bit more. But with each new piece of knowledge, the cruelty of it became more apparent. Lin Muyu continued to check the World Core for any omissions. Even a slight oversight could lead to failure.

Antares glanced at it and said, “No need to check further, you can proceed to the second step.”

Lin Muyu had indeed checked thoroughly and began the second step.

The second step was to strip the laws!

The World Core contained many broken laws. These laws were in a chaotic state and needed to be stripped away with soul power. The method was similar to stripping the World Power, and Lin Muyu, having experience, did it smoothly. Stripping the World Power and laws was also a process of deepening the soul imprint on the World Core. During the stripping process, Lin Muyu’s connection with the World Core became closer, laying the foundation for the next step.

Lin Muyu became more proficient, even able to chat with Antares while working.

“When I was looking for the World Core, I encountered two people from the great world.”

Antares said curiously, “Deep space is connected to the great world, so it’s not surprising for people to come in.”

“And the World Core falling into deep space is no secret; others besides Jiang Yi must know about it.”

“Tell me about the people you met.”

Lin Muyu recounted the situation and showed the jade pendant to Antares. Antares looked at the jade pendant, thought for a moment, but didn’t recognize its origin.

“This jade pendant has a tracking spell. When you enter the great world, the other party should sense it.”

“Your human race is relatively united in the great world, so there shouldn’t be any problems.”

“As for the one who ambushed you, it should be a scum from the Shadow Clan.”

“These guys are always doing sneaky things.”

Antares’s disdain made Lin Muyu laugh. This guy’s arrogant nature was unchangeable.

Suddenly, Antares’s gaze shifted to Lin Muyu’s soul, and its expression changed.
