Catastrophic necromancer

**Chapter 1413: Fight for Your Own Life**

A figure wrapped in black clothing, exuding a mysterious and noble aura, with an indistinct appearance as if shrouded in mist. Lin Moyu was very certain that this person was the mysterious figure he had met in the black hole before.

The Undead Vision looked from a distance, and Lin Moyu trembled slightly, disconnecting from the Undead Vision.

The soul fire was too dazzling. The moment the Undead Vision looked over, the soul fire occupied the entire field of vision, directly severing the connection.

The gap in realm was too great.

The mysterious figure looked into the distance, where there was a skeleton, “Not a bad ability, being able to directly perceive others’ souls. Even a God Sovereign would find it difficult to detect.”

The mysterious figure’s voice was very clear, sounding quite young.

He pointed out the ability of the Undead Vision in one sentence. Of course, the Undead Vision’s ability was not limited to perceiving souls. However, Lin Moyu did not want to continue discussing this topic with him, “Senior, were you just now…?”

The mysterious figure’s voice was very calm, “What do you think?”

What do I think? I think nothing.

Lin Moyu thought that he was definitely not there just now, but he was too embarrassed to say that he wasn’t.

Thinking this in his heart, he said, “It seems you wanted to test me. If I had known you were here, I wouldn’t have had to work so hard.”

The mist on the mysterious figure’s face trembled slightly, and Lin Moyu felt that he should have some expression, but he couldn’t see it.

The mysterious figure said, “No matter when, you can’t entrust your life to others. You have to fight for your own life.”

Lin Moyu’s mouth twitched. Earlier, he had guessed that this guy was probably not there. Now he was completely sure that this guy was definitely not there. If he had really waited for him to save his life, he would probably be dead by now.

But what he said was not wrong; you have to fight for your own life, relying on others is not as good as relying on yourself.

“Thank you, senior, for your guidance.” Lin Moyu bowed slightly to the mysterious figure to show his respect. No matter what he thought in his heart, at least on the surface, he was still polite to him.

“Mm!” The mysterious figure responded lightly, seemingly very satisfied with Lin Moyu’s attitude.

Seeing that his attitude was still relatively kind and not as aloof as in the black hole, Lin Moyu took the opportunity to ask, “Senior, I have a question.”

“Speak!”

“How did the ancient Buddha lock onto me with that palm?”

Lin Moyu had always been curious about how the ancient Buddha could lock onto him.

The Buddha clan was countless light-years away from the battlefield. How could they lock onto him across such a vast space? Even an ancient Buddha shouldn’t be able to do that.

The mysterious figure said indifferently, “The Law of Karma.”

“The Law of Karma!” Lin Moyu repeated the mysterious figure’s words, “I remember, the Law of Karma is one of the top-tier laws, very mysterious and powerful. No one in our human race has mastered this law. I didn’t expect someone in the Buddha clan to have mastered it.”

The mysterious figure snorted, “He hasn’t mastered the Law of Karma, he just used an ancient relic to borrow a bit of its power.”

“And you don’t have to worry, he can only use that one palm, and after that, he won’t be able to lock onto you again.”

Lin Moyu let out a sigh of relief, feeling much more at ease.

He was just afraid that the other party would strike him a few more times, which would be really troublesome.

He couldn’t possibly hide here forever and not go out.

Lin Moyu asked, “Will he come here himself?”

“No!” The mysterious figure answered firmly, “That guy can’t even protect himself.”

The ancient Buddha can’t even protect himself?

These four words contained a lot of information.

Lin Moyu’s mind wandered, but the mysterious figure’s light cough interrupted his thoughts, “Don’t overthink it. Matters at that level have nothing to do with you.”

“I’m more curious about why he attacked you.”

Lin Moyu smiled, “I obtained a seated Buddha statue in the Gloomy Marsh, not expecting it to contain the soul of the Buddha of Joy.”

“The Buddha of Joy claimed to be the grandson of the ancient Buddha, but I didn’t pay attention to him.”

The mysterious figure seemed to be looking at Lin Moyu, and Lin Moyu felt an invisible gaze.

After a few breaths, the mysterious figure asked, “What did you do to the Buddha of Joy?”

Lin Moyu replied earnestly, “Once my spell started, it couldn’t be stopped. He was refined.”

Refined, meaning he was dead.

No matter the process, the result was the same.

The Buddha of Joy no longer existed in this world.

“You have quite the guts, daring to kill him even knowing he was the grandson of the ancient Buddha.” The mysterious figure’s voice remained calm, making it unclear whether he was praising or mocking Lin Moyu.

Lin Moyu took it as praise, “I didn’t know if he was telling the truth, and besides, my spell couldn’t be stopped. If he had spoken earlier, there might have been a chance.”

“Really?” The mysterious figure sneered, clearly not believing Lin Moyu’s words.

Lin Moyu silently answered in his heart, “Yes, if he had spoken earlier, I would have asked Senior Zhu to kill him. I believe Senior Zhu could block the ancient Buddha’s palm.” Lin Moyu thought Zhu Qiwu could block that palm without any problem, and even if he couldn’t, he would have some life-saving means.

Seeing Lin Moyu remain silent, the mysterious figure changed the subject, “Why didn’t you use the life-saving stone I gave you?”

“It wasn’t a desperate situation yet. If it really came to that, I would have used it.” Lin Moyu answered honestly, as that was indeed the case.

The mysterious figure said, “Take out the life-saving stone.”

Lin Moyu took out the black life-saving stone. This inconspicuous stone, which no one would pick up if it fell on the road, was actually crafted by a great figure.

The mysterious figure extended a finger and lightly touched the life-saving stone. An invisible law entered the stone, making it even darker.

Lin Moyu felt it vibrating slightly, as if the power inside had become stronger.

The mysterious figure said, “I’ve enhanced its power. If another ancient Buddha-level figure attacks you, it can protect you.”

Lin Moyu’s mouth twitched. The mysterious figure’s words implied that previously, if an ancient Buddha-level figure had attacked him, the life-saving stone wouldn’t have saved him.

It didn’t work before, but now it was enhanced and could.

Wasn’t that a trap? Luckily, he hadn’t used it this time.

If he had pinned his hopes on the life-saving stone, he would have been dead.

“Indeed, you can’t rely too much on others. You have to fight for your own life.” Lin Moyu thought to himself, putting away the life-saving stone and saying, “Thank you, senior.”

The mysterious figure said, “Alright, continue your cultivation.”

With that, the mysterious figure rippled like water and then disappeared like a bubble.

Lin Moyu sighed, “Indeed, my level is not high enough. Some questions probably wouldn’t be answered even if I asked.” Lin Moyu naturally had other questions, but he felt that asking them wouldn’t yield answers, so he didn’t bother.

The crisis of the ancient Buddha’s palm print had passed, and Lin Moyu turned his attention to this special void.

He prepared to use the mysterious spirits to cultivate his physical body.

Outside the mysterious land, Zhu Qiwu looked worried.

Suddenly, a voice sounded in his ear, “He’s fine now.”
