Catastrophic necromancer

Chapter 2241: Both Sides Suffer

Tianlong and Shengguang exchanged a few more words. From their conversation, Lin Moyu could deduce that Shengguang’s status within the dragon clan was not as high as Tianlong’s.

Tianlong was a divine dragon, while Shengguang was merely a holy dragon.

The hierarchy within the dragon clan was very strict, with elemental dragons, holy dragons, and divine dragons each having distinctly different statuses.

Although Shengguang was conveying the words of some elders within the dragon clan, his tone was noticeably respectful.

Tianlong seemed to have made a mistake and was punished by being sent here, losing five Dragon Pearls in the process.

However, Tianlong clearly refused to admit his mistake. He didn’t believe he was wrong, so how could he admit it?

Tianlong’s situation was very similar to Antares’s, but Antares’s situation was even worse.

At least Tianlong was still in the boundary region and could move freely within it.

Antares, on the other hand, was trapped in a small world, unable to move.

Before meeting Lin Moyu, Antares didn’t even have anyone to talk to.

In comparison, Tianlong’s situation was slightly better.

Unable to persuade Tianlong, Shengguang could only leave in frustration.

After Shengguang left, Tianlong looked towards Lin Moyu’s location, “Come out.”

Lin Moyu removed the Concealment Talisman. The Concealment Talisman could fool Shengguang but not Tianlong.

Currently, Shengguang was still at the Saint Lord level, while Tianlong, having retrieved a Dragon Pearl, had returned to the half-step Supreme level.

Tianlong looked at Lin Moyu, “You heard everything?”

Lin Moyu nodded, “Yes, I heard it all.”

Tianlong asked, “What do you think?”

Lin Moyu waved his hand, “Although I don’t know the details, my sister once said something that suits you well.”

Tianlong’s eyes swept over, as if asking, “What did she say?”

Lin Moyu said, “Do what you believe is right.”

“Do what you believe is right.”

Tianlong chewed on this phrase and suddenly let out a fierce dragon roar, “Well said, do what you believe is right. Your sister is quite something!”

After a burst of wild laughter, Tianlong looked at Lin Moyu, “Tell me, what brings you here this time?”

Lin Moyu waved his hand, tossing the Dragon Pearl to Tianlong, “I found the second Dragon Pearl for you. I also know where the third one is. I’ll retrieve it when I get the chance.”

Seeing the Dragon Pearl, Tianlong’s eyes filled with joy, followed by confusion, “If you know where the third one is, why wait for the opportunity?”

Lin Moyu said, “The location of the third one is very dangerous. I’m not entirely confident; I might die.”

“Moreover, the human race is currently facing some troublesome issues that need to be resolved first.”

Tianlong carefully examined the Dragon Pearl and casually said, “What kind of trouble could the human race have?”

After speaking, he breathed out a dragon breath, which turned into flames enveloping the Dragon Pearl. Tianlong muttered to himself, “This Dragon Pearl has been used by someone, contaminated with impurities, and needs to be purified.”

“Which filthy creature dared to contaminate my Dragon Pearl? If I find out, I’ll kill them with a single breath.”

Lin Moyu said, “You won’t have the chance. The Eagle Emperor is already dead.”

Tianlong responded with an “Oh,” “Lucky for him. If I were around, I’d refine his soul for thousands of years.”

“Tell me, what trouble is the human race facing? Let’s see if I can help.”

Lin Moyu had been waiting for this question and immediately asked, “Do you know about the Black Blood Calamity?”

While purifying the Dragon Pearl, Tianlong muttered, “Black Blood Calamity… sounds familiar. Let me think.”

The dragon clan had arrived in the great world in ancient times. Throughout the ancient great war, the dragon clan had always been observers.

Perhaps the dragons of that time were not the same as Tianlong now, but the dragon clan’s information had been passed down. Lin Moyu thought Tianlong might know.

After thinking for a moment, Tianlong finally found the answer in his distant memory, “I remember now. The Black Blood Calamity is an attack triggered by the origin power of the Black Blood Great World.”

Lin Moyu immediately asked, “Is the Black Blood Calamity very powerful?”

Tianlong chuckled, “What do you think? Anything involving origin power can’t be weak.”

Indeed, anything involving the word “origin” is very powerful.

Even in the small world, there is origin power. When Lin Moyu sought to become the master of the small world and gain its recognition, he put in a lot of effort.

The origin power of the great world is even more powerful.

Lin Moyu continued to ask, “Is there a way to stop the Black Blood Calamity?”

Tianlong continued, “Nothing in the world is unstoppable, but first, you need to understand it to stop it fundamentally.”

Lin Moyu perked up his ears, listening carefully. Tianlong was about to start teaching.

“First of all, the origin of the Black Blood Great World is blood.”

“Their laws, power, and attacks all come from blood.”

“They can consume and accumulate their own blood energy, transforming it into immense combat power.”

“They can also absorb external blood energy and refine it into various treasures.”

“The previous Eye of Filth was made by collecting thousands of filthy blood.”

“The Black Blood Calamity is the same. It’s an expression of the origin power of the Black Blood Great World. To stop it, you must destroy the origin.”

“Back in the day, when the Black Blood Great World launched the Black Blood Calamity, your human race had no particularly good countermeasures. Even with the combined efforts of several Heavenly Sovereigns, it was difficult to stop. In the end, you had to use the origin power of the great world to block it.”

“But that time, the origin of the great world was severely damaged. Although you won in the end, it was actually a situation where both sides suffered.”

Lin Moyu suddenly understood. He finally learned about the ancient great war from Tianlong.

It turned out that because of the Black Blood Calamity, the two worlds fought with their origin powers, resulting in mutual destruction.

A part of the mystery was unveiled, and Lin Moyu saw the cause and effect.

Lin Moyu whispered, “The great world was severely damaged and difficult to recover. What about the Black Blood Great World? I went to the boundary sea and didn’t see the Black Blood Great World.”

Tianlong laughed heartily, “Not seeing it is normal; seeing it would be abnormal.”

Tianlong was in a good mood. The Dragon Pearl was being purified and would soon be absorbed, allowing him to regain some of his strength.

He didn’t hide anything from Lin Moyu. Even things he shouldn’t say, he didn’t care.

Anyway, he had already fallen out with the dragon clan, and Tianlong had entered a state of indifference.

After laughing for a while, Tianlong continued, “In the final stages of the ancient great war, your human race should have been the victorious side. The Heavenly Sovereigns thought they could plunder the origin of the Black Blood Great World, just like they had plundered other worlds’ origins before.”

“If they had succeeded, the origin of the great world would have reached a new level. Perhaps a Dao Sovereign would have been born in the great world.”

“The strongest in the Black Blood Great World sacrificed themselves, using the origin of the Black Blood Great World to launch the Black Blood Calamity.”

“The collision of the two worlds’ origins severely damaged the origin of the great world, and the Black Blood Great World directly collapsed.”

The Black Blood Great World actually collapsed.

This result surprised Lin Moyu. No wonder he didn’t see the Black Blood Great World in the boundary sea; it had already collapsed.

Tianlong paused for a moment and continued, “The people of the Black Blood Great World didn’t all die. They, along with the shattered Black Blood Great World, merged into the great world!”

“The origin of the Black Blood Great World was shattered but not exhausted.”

Lin Moyu understood. The cultivators of the Black Blood Great World didn’t all die, and the origin of the Black Blood Great World wasn’t completely exhausted.

So over the years, the remnants of the Black Blood Great World had been searching and laying out plans, trying to trigger the Black Blood Calamity again.

The River of Time earlier was just an appetizer; the Black Blood Calamity was the real killer move.

Compared to the demons, the Black Blood Great World was much harder to deal with.

However, Lin Moyu thought of a possibility, “Since the origin of the Black Blood Great World still exists, what if we let the great world absorb it?”

Tianlong laughed heartily, “You’re not trying to save the great world; you’re trying to kill it!”

Amidst the laughter, the Dragon Pearl finished purifying and was swallowed by Tianlong in one gulp.
