Catastrophic necromancer

**Chapter 1540: He Knows Exactly What He Wants!**

[Contestant No. 2 has entered the first layer.]

[Contestant No. 4 has entered the first layer.]

[Contestant No. 5 has entered the first layer.]

[Contestant No. 11 has entered the first layer.]

[Contestant No. 13 has entered the first layer.]

One prompt after another appeared, and all five of Zhuang Bi’s group had entered the first layer.

Now, in the second layer, besides Lin Moyu, there were five people left.

They were Contestant No. 7 and No. 12 from Divine City, Contestant No. 14 from the War God Hall, and Contestants No. 17 and No. 18 from the White Tiger Star Domain.

Lin Moyu had seen these people before, and the one who left the deepest impression was Contestant No. 18, Hu Tian. Hu Tian was somewhat similar to Chu Xiong, straightforward and left a good impression on Lin Moyu.

Another one was Contestant No. 17, Bai Xiao. Lin Moyu hadn’t interacted with him, but judging by his ranking, his strength was not inferior to Hu Tian’s.

Both of them were dark horses who had fought their way up from the preliminaries, defeating seeded players and forcefully entering the top 16.

Contestant No. 7 and No. 12 from Divine City had their brilliance overshadowed by Dongfang Ze, but they were still very strong, at least stronger than the two from the White Tiger Star Domain.

The contestant from the War God Hall was also not weak. Although ranked 14th, with the secret techniques of the War God Hall, the outcome of a fight would be hard to predict.

In terms of strength, the second layer couldn’t hold them back. If they followed the rules, they could all enter the first layer. But now, Lin Moyu had become an unexpected factor.

Lin Moyu held the remaining six tokens. With the advantage of his undead army, he had gathered all the remaining tokens. Now, if the five wanted to get tokens to enter the next layer, they had to find Lin Moyu.

Hu Tian was the first to come, bringing Bai Xiao with him. He had some experience from a previous transaction with Lin Moyu. Lin Moyu had obtained the tokens but hadn’t eliminated them, so his purpose was clear.

When Hu Tian arrived, he lowered his stance slightly and got straight to the point, “Junior Brother Lin, name your price.”

Bai Xiao was a bit unaccustomed at first, but since Hu Tian had already spoken, he didn’t say much. Now, he had only two choices: either buy the token from Lin Moyu or be eliminated. Being eliminated this way was something he couldn’t accept, but buying the token also felt unsatisfactory.

Lin Moyu tossed a token to Hu Tian, “You don’t need to buy it. This one is for you. As for him, the conditions are the same as yours.”

Hu Tian’s eyes lit up, and he whispered a few words to Bai Xiao. Bai Xiao’s expression was complex, clearly not expecting that what Lin Moyu needed was this.

Following Hu Tian’s example, Bai Xiao recorded all his insights on the power of faith onto a jade tablet. He also handed over all the information he had collected on the power of faith to Lin Moyu in exchange for a token to enter the next layer.

The two thanked Lin Moyu and left happily with their tokens.

The four domain lords watched this scene, and Bai Bing’er, the master of the White Tiger Star Domain, breathed a sigh of relief, “I thought this kid would ask for an exorbitant price.”

Zhu Tian chuckled, “He knows his limits.”

Wu Da disagreed, “I don’t think it’s about knowing his limits; he knows exactly what he needs.” Thinking about it, it seemed true.

Lin Moyu had been very purposeful from the beginning, probably having thought it through at the start of the transaction.

Ye Qingxuan said, “He needs insights on the power of faith, which the White Tiger Star Domain excels at. So, what will he ask from Divine City and the War God Hall?”

Zhu Tian laughed, “What do you think Divine City and the War God Hall have?”

The three domain lords were startled, roughly guessing what Lin Moyu would want.

Lin Moyu indeed knew exactly what he needed.

During these days, while chatting with Xu Jianxing, Xu had mentioned some characteristics of Divine City. There were some special areas in Divine City where one could obtain special materials. These materials were numerous, and their properties couldn’t be detected even with detection techniques. Their levels were also unclear, similar to a mysterious iron block Xu Jianxing had once obtained.

Lin Moyu now wanted these materials. Whether they were useful or not, having them was good.

Xu Jianxing had said that although these materials were rare, they weren’t considered precious due to their unknown uses. Generally, cultivators from Divine City would have a few pieces.

When the two from Divine City came to him, Lin Moyu straightforwardly stated his request. They readily agreed to the exchange.

To Lin Moyu’s surprise, he received two more iron blocks identical to the one Xu Jianxing had given him. It seemed these iron blocks were not uncommon.

As for the War God Hall, Lin Moyu asked for a secret technique.

The War God Hall had many legacies, most of which were obtained after exterminating other races. Among these legacies were many secret techniques.

These secret techniques had been modified and could be used by the human race, such as the Great Strength Secret Technique seen in previous battles.

Some secret techniques were very precious and not shared, while others could be shared and were often used as rewards.

Lin Moyu asked for a secret technique called the Purple Gold Body, a body-refining technique from the now-extinct Purple Gold Race.

The Purple Gold Body was naturally unsuitable for human cultivation. Later, human predecessors had studied it and tried to modify it.

However, the modification results were not satisfactory, and the human race had no intention of pursuing physical sanctification.

Ultimately, the Purple Gold Body became one of the less precious secret techniques in the War God Hall, accessible to almost all members.

Trading it now wouldn’t cause any issues.

After completing the transactions, Lin Moyu finally used his privilege to enter the first layer.

The atmosphere in the first layer was somewhat gloomy and oppressive.

Dongfang Ze was the first to enter the first layer and was currently healing his injuries.

After a fierce battle, although he had defeated his enemies, he was also injured.

His eyes were filled with ferocity, mixed with shock and panic.

“The enemies in the first layer are so strong!”

Shortly after entering the first layer, he encountered the first wave of enemies.

To be precise, he didn’t encounter them; they came directly to him.

It was a hundred-member team of the Golden Eagle Race.

Among them, ninety-nine were at the ninth stage of the God-King level, and the leader was a minor God-Sovereign.

Dongfang Ze didn’t take such a team seriously because the minor God-Sovereign was much weaker than him.

However, as soon as the battle started, he realized something was wrong.

The Golden Eagle Race had formed a battle formation, combining everyone’s strength into one.

Moreover, the Golden Eagle Race was extremely fast, making it impossible for him to dodge.

After a fierce battle, although he defeated his opponents, he was also injured.

Dongfang Ze gritted his teeth, “If this continues, the giant beasts here might reach the peak of the minor God-Sovereign level, making them difficult to deal with.”

“I might win using secret techniques, but it would come at a cost.”

After thinking for a while, Dongfang Ze made a decision.

An hour later, his injuries were mostly healed.

In the dim world, a golden light appeared, making Dongfang Ze tense up.

Someone was coming again.

His injuries had just healed, and now someone else was coming.

Without thinking, Dongfang Ze immediately retreated.

But the Golden Eagle Race was faster than him, catching up in an instant, and another fierce battle erupted.
