Catastrophic necromancer

## Chapter 2578: Take A Gamble!

Lin Moyu once asked Tianlong about the Essence of Ancestral Water. Tianlong knew of its existence but was unsure of its specific uses. According to Tianlong, the Dragon God of the Dragon Clan once obtained a drop of the Essence of Ancestral Water and regarded it as a treasure.

At that time, Lin Moyu realized that the Essence of Ancestral Water was extremely precious. He had obtained more than 10,000 drops of Ancestral Water and, after using some, still had over 9,000 drops. However, he only had one drop of the Essence of Ancestral Water, whose value was tens of thousands of times greater than that of ordinary Ancestral Water.

Now, seeing Tianlei Daoist’s reaction, Lin Moyu felt it was normal. Tianlei Daoist had a trace of envy in his eyes, “The Essence of Ancestral Water, that is a legendary thing. Only the ancestors of some holy lands and major sects have the opportunity to obtain it. How exactly it is obtained and where it comes from, I am not very clear. Anyway, I am not qualified.”

Lin Moyu was shocked. Tianlei Daoist, who had reached the ninth realm of Daoism and even touched that mysterious realm, was not qualified to obtain the Essence of Ancestral Water. Lin Moyu believed that even the ancestors of the holy lands might not be as high as Tianlei Daoist in terms of realm cultivation.

Tianlei Daoist said, “Do you feel strange? To obtain the Essence of Ancestral Water, it depends not on cultivation but on luck. Of course, the realm of cultivation is also necessary, just passable. The most important thing is luck. Only when the luck reaches a certain level is there a chance to obtain a drop of Ancestral Water Essence.”

Lin Moyu was stunned for a moment. He could never have thought that to obtain the Essence of Ancestral Water, the main factor would be such an illusory existence as luck.

Tianlei Daoist continued, “I only figured it out later that the reason why I failed to reach that realm was that my lack of luck was one of the reasons. If I had enough luck and could get a drop of Ancestral Water Essence, maybe I wouldn’t have failed.”

Lin Moyu was surprised, “Can the Essence of Ancestral Water help to reach that realm?”

Tianlei Daoist nodded, “If you want to reach that realm, the Essence of Ancestral Water is not a must, and not having it does not mean failure. Having it does not mean success either. Otherwise, those holy lands and major sects would have already had people step into that realm. It’s just that if you can have the Essence of Ancestral Water, you can greatly increase the success rate. So you have to build a sect, gather a lot of luck, and finally get the Essence of Ancestral Water, and strive to enter that realm.”

“The old Taoist has nothing to help you here. Here are some origin crystals. You keep them; maybe they will be useful in the future.”

Tianlei Daoist took out a few origin crystals and placed them in front of Lin Moyu. These origin crystals all had attributes. Origin crystals with attributes, at some point, can be more valuable than ordinary origin crystals, or at least equal. Tianlei Daoist took out a total of ten origin crystals, each of which was a fine-quality eighth-level origin crystal, and their value was inestimable.

Lin Moyu was surprised and quickly refused, “No, these origin crystals are useful to you, brother.”

Tianlei Daoist waved his hand, “No problem, it’s a little gift from your brother. Don’t refuse.”

Lin Moyu looked at the ten exquisite eighth-level origin crystals in front of him and was a little moved. He knew that these eighth-level origin crystals had extraordinary significance to Tianlei Daoist. Origin spirit veins can produce origin crystals, and a large part of the origin crystals in the Origin Continent comes from origin spirit veins. But normally, the origin crystals naturally produced by the origin spirit veins will be lower than their original level. The origin crystals produced by an eighth-level origin spirit vein are basically sixth-level or fifth-level. Even seventh-level ones are not produced very well, not to mention origin crystals equivalent to the origin spirit veins.

The origin spiritual vein in Leishan is of the eighth order, and the origin crystals normally produced should be of the fifth or sixth order. Most of them are still of the ordinary order, and the proportion of fine-quality crystals is not large. Only when it is controlled by humans will the origin spiritual vein condense and produce origin crystals of the same level as the spiritual vein. This production method actually harms the spiritual vein, and it will not be done under normal circumstances.

Tianlei Daoist can easily take out many fifth- and sixth-order origin crystals, and even a small number of seventh-order origin crystals. Because those are naturally produced and condensed by the spiritual vein, there will be no impact on the origin spiritual vein. But now Tianlei Daoist has taken out ten fine-quality eighth-order origin crystals, which will obviously cause damage to the origin spiritual vein in Leishan.

He originally hoped that the origin spiritual vein could be promoted to the ninth order. Only in this way can he be reborn and impact that realm again. Now it is not a good thing for Tianlei Daoist to forcibly condense the fine-quality eighth-order origin crystals and consume part of the power of the origin spiritual vein. Even if the spirit vein is strong enough, ten origin crystals are nothing, but sometimes it is just like this, and it can’t be any worse.

Tianlei Daoist didn’t care, “Little brother Lin, don’t worry. Although I hope the spirit vein can be promoted to the ninth level, it is so difficult to promote to the ninth level. I am just thinking about it. Maybe it won’t be able to open in another million years. If things go wrong, you will have reached the ninth level of Taoism by then, or even enter that level one step earlier than me, and I will have to rely on you to save me. So, keep it well and don’t think too much.”

Lin Moyu could tell that Tianlei Daoist really wanted him to take it. He believed in his spiritual perception and could feel that Tianlei Daoist had no ill will towards him but really recognized him. He practiced the Great Way of Thunder and practiced only the Way, and the Yang Thunder. Tianlei Daoist was just like his Way, upright and straightforward. Otherwise, he would not have been able to reach the ninth level of the Way. The Great Way that a practitioner comprehends is actually related to his original heart.

Lin Moyu did not refuse and put away the origin crystals.

Tianlei Daoist smiled, “That’s right. There is still some time, and the old Taoist will guide the power of the origin for you to help you practice. With the eighth-level spiritual vein, the practice of these few days is equivalent to many years outside.”

Lin Moyu was moved and said to himself, “Let’s take a gamble!”

Lin Moyu, who never did anything without confidence, decided to take a gamble at this moment. Sometimes, being cautious is a good thing, but sometimes, being overly cautious is not a good thing.

Lin Moyu said, “Brother, I was lucky enough to get a drop of the Essence of Ancestral Water.”

Tianlei Daoist, who was about to activate the power of the origin of the spiritual vein, stopped on the spot. He stared at Lin Moyu blankly and then said, “Are you joking…”

But the next second, his eyes widened, and he couldn’t say a word. A drop of water the size of a fingernail appeared in Lin Moyu’s hand. This drop of water was extremely pure, without a trace of impurities, as if it was the purest thing in the world. But in the water drop, countless great ways were condensed.

As a strong man in the ninth realm of Daoism, Tianlei Daoist’s eyes were attracted at once, and then his whole body trembled. He opened his mouth several times and then closed it several times without uttering a word. To make a being who has lived for millions of years and reached the ninth realm of Daoism become like this, you can imagine how much impact the Essence of Ancestral Water has on him.

After a long while, he barely recovered, “Take it back!”
