Catastrophic necromancer

**Chapter 1968: You Didn’t Make a Single Mistake?**

Lin Moyu gradually understood the Cloud Mist Sect; it was a very peculiar sect. When they recruited disciples, the first thing they valued was not talent or aptitude but luck.

Only those with sufficient luck were qualified to join the sect.

After luck, they also required decent comprehension and good soul strength.

The latter two were not difficult to enhance; some rare treasures could improve comprehension and strengthen the soul.

Lin Moyu believed that in the ancient times when the Great World was incredibly resource-rich, such treasures were not uncommon.

But luck was naturally determined. Although it could fluctuate, its upper limit was essentially fixed.

So the most important factor was luck; everything else was just a bonus.

As long as one’s luck was good enough, even if they didn’t obtain the best inheritance, they would still gain something.

Lin Moyu made choices repeatedly, enduring soul impacts.

As he got closer to the end, the intensity of the soul impacts increased, but fortunately, it didn’t exceed the high-stage God Sovereign level.

This further validated Lin Moyu’s guess that the soul was just a bonus factor.

If the Supreme who controlled the inheritance of the Cloud Mist Sect were still alive in ancient times, anyone who made it through the choices would be qualified to receive the Cloud Mist Sect’s inheritance.

Unfortunately, that Supreme was no longer around, leaving only the rules.

The rules wouldn’t change; without reaching the end, one couldn’t obtain the inheritance.

Finally, after completing the 600th green jade path, Lin Moyu truly stepped onto the mountain top.

The dense fog in front of him cleared, revealing a massive palace.

The enormous palace exuded an ancient aura, the aura of time.

Majestic energy surged from within the palace, as if countless powerful beings resided inside.

Looking at it, Lin Moyu felt as if he could sense the might of ancient times.

The dense fog turned into clouds, drifting above the palace, and behind it was a pagoda.

Lin Moyu felt immense pressure from the clouds, indicating that he couldn’t reach the pagoda from the top of the palace.

“Congratulations on passing the path of inheritance. Please enter the Cloud Mist Palace to receive the inheritance baptism!”

A reminder sounded in Lin Moyu’s ear, identical to the one he heard when he first stepped into Cloud Mist Mountain.

After carefully admiring the Cloud Mist Palace, Lin Moyu strode inside.

***

In the village at the foot of the mountain, someone suddenly exclaimed, pointing at the mountain top in shock, “Look, there’s someone on the mountain!”

The ancestors all looked up towards the mountain top.

Above the clouds, they indeed saw a person there.

Due to the distance and the fog, they couldn’t see clearly.

But based on the figure and clothing, they confirmed that the person on the mountain top was Lin Moyu.

“He really made it up there.”

“By the Saint Sovereign, how did he do it? It’s incredible.”

“Could we have been wrong? Maybe you don’t need to wait after being eliminated; you can enter immediately.”

“I don’t think so. We’ve tried so many times; we shouldn’t be wrong.”

“Then how did he get up there?”

“I don’t know. We’ll have to wait for him to come back and ask.”

The Hao Saint Sovereign also saw Lin Moyu and clenched his fist, “Well done!”

His eyes showed excitement.

***

Lin Moyu entered the Cloud Mist Palace, where clouds and mist also drifted, creating a dreamlike realm.

The Cloud Mist Sect lived up to its name, with clouds and mist everywhere.

The drifting clouds and mist also symbolized the unpredictability of luck.

Clouds and mist swirled around Lin Moyu, spinning continuously.

Lin Moyu looked puzzled, “Is this the inheritance baptism?”

He didn’t feel any changes. The so-called inheritance baptism should bring some changes.

“You didn’t make a single mistake?”

A clear voice, filled with surprise and disbelief, echoed in the hall.

Someone?

Lin Moyu looked around and saw a thick white cloud rapidly condensing in mid-air in front of him.

On the white cloud sat a girl who looked about eighteen or nineteen, lazily lounging.

“An artifact spirit,” Lin Moyu immediately recognized that she was not a living being but an artifact spirit.

Whether she was the artifact spirit of the Cloud Mist Palace or another artifact spirit was unknown.

The girl rubbed her eyes and then glared at Lin Moyu, “Hey, I’m talking to you. Why aren’t you answering?”

Lin Moyu replied, “I indeed didn’t make a single mistake.”

The girl looked him up and down with wide eyes, “You don’t look very smart. How did you not make a single mistake?”

“Could it be that your luck is so good that you always chose correctly?”

Lin Moyu didn’t respond. From the girl’s words, he could tell that she didn’t actually know the specifics of the test in Cloud Mist Mountain.

Perhaps she was only in charge of the palace and the results.

The girl suddenly waved her hand, “Let’s just say you have good luck. According to the rules, you are qualified to become a true disciple and enter the Inheritance Pagoda.”

“But let me warn you, entering the Inheritance Pagoda is dangerous. You might get trapped inside and never come out.”

“Moreover, there are many inheritances in the Inheritance Pagoda. The probability of getting the best inheritance is less than half.”

“And the probability of getting trapped inside is over seventy percent.”

“If you don’t want to go in, you can receive the inheritance here. I can choose a good inheritance for you. It might not be worse than what’s in the Inheritance Pagoda.”

“Think carefully before making a choice.”

Lin Moyu felt that the girl wasn’t telling the truth. She seemed to not want him to enter the Inheritance Pagoda to get the inheritance.

Lin Moyu thought for a moment, showing a hint of hesitation, “Senior, is the Inheritance Pagoda really that dangerous?”

The girl coughed, seemingly a bit displeased, “Do you think I would lie to you? The Inheritance Pagoda is indeed that dangerous. Out of ten people who enter, only one or two get a good inheritance. Most get trapped inside for hundreds or thousands of years before coming out.”

“So I advise you to honestly choose an inheritance here.”

“I see that your aptitude is average, your realm is only at the first stage of God Sovereign, and your strength is weak. You just have good luck.”

“Getting here is already impressive. I advise you not to risk entering the Inheritance Pagoda.”

“I can help you choose the best inheritance in the Cloud Mist Palace, which won’t be worse than what’s in the Inheritance Pagoda.”

Although she acted as if she was doing it for Lin Moyu’s good, he could sense that she genuinely didn’t want him to enter the Inheritance Pagoda.

But why would she care? They were strangers.

What was the artifact spirit’s true motive?

With too little information, Lin Moyu couldn’t make a judgment yet.

He decided to chat with her more, hoping to get more useful information.

He slowly asked, “Senior, how long has it been since anyone came here?”

The girl frowned, “Many years.”

“She isn’t sure either!” Lin Moyu thought, considering a possibility.

He continued, “Senior, what happened to those who got trapped in the Inheritance Pagoda?”

The girl snorted, “Nothing much. They were trapped for hundreds or thousands of years and then left.”

“What did they do while trapped?”

“What could they do? They were just trapped.”

“Is the inheritance in the Inheritance Pagoda really that difficult?”

“Of course, it’s difficult.”

The more difficult it was, the stronger it would be.

Lin Moyu got another key piece of information from the girl.

Although the Inheritance Pagoda could trap people, it wouldn’t kill them. After hundreds or thousands of years, they could still leave.

This contradicted the girl’s earlier statement about the dangers of the Inheritance Pagoda.

Her words were exaggerated; she didn’t want him to enter the Inheritance Pagoda for some other reason.
