Necromancer: I Am A Disaster

Chapter 237: It's Lin Moyu, Run!

In the Hall of Heroes, Bai Yiyuan sat cross-legged, sensing Lin Moyu's condition through the soul brand left in the Hall of Heroes.

Not long ago, the soul brand had suddenly throbbed a few times, catching Bai Yiyuan's attention.

"The kid's spirit force seems to have grown stronger. And by quite a bit! Did he encounter some sort of opportunity?"

As Lin Moyu's spirit force grew stronger, the brand he left in the Hall of Heroes also grew stronger. Moments later, a look of shock appeared on Bai Yiyuan's face. Lin Moyu’s soul brand was now enveloped in a ring of red light.

"The Primordial Rune. The kid actually obtained the Primordial Rune. It's only been a few days, yet he already had a stroke of luck."

Despite the grumbling, the expression on his face betrayed his true feelings. The joy on his face could not be concealed.

"Kid, the next part is your trial. You must persevere." Bai Yiyuan uttered. There was nothing he could do, except standing guard in the Hall of Heroes.

Since normally no one visited the Hall of Heroes, he sat there alone without disturbing anyone.

At this moment, the gate opened, and an elderly man with white hair walked in. Despite his advanced age, he moved with a vigorous step, radiating energy.

Beside the old man was a Unicorn wrapped in electric arcs. It was a Sacred Thunder Unicorn, a unique existence in the entire Shenxia Empire.

Its owner, Mo Xinghai, was also a godly powerhouse like Bai Yiyuan and the empire's sole godly Summoner.

Bai Yiyuan was surprised, "Old Mo, what brings you here?"

Mo Xinghai glanced at him, "What are you doing here?"

Bai Yiyuan replied, "My student went to the Immemorial Battlefield, so I’m here to keep an eye on things. And you?"

Mo Xinghai said, "My granddaughter went to the Immemorial Battlefield as well."

The two shared a look and suddenly burst into hearty laughter. As former comrades-in-arms who had fought countless battles side by side, their bond was naturally strong.

Mo Xinghai sat down beside Bai Yiyuan and asked curiously, "When did you accept a student? How come I didn't know?"

"It wasn't long ago." Bai Yiyuan chatted with Mo Xinghai, while sensing Lin Moyu’s soul brand.

Mo Xinghai, having found his granddaughter Mo Yun's soul brand and sensing she was safe, relaxed, "How is he? Is he promising?"

Bai Yiyuan nodded, "He's a supra-godly talent."

Mo Xinghai's face immediately registered shock. Such praise from Bai Yiyuan was unprecedented.

Bai Yiyuan chuckled, "I heard your precious granddaughter successfully sublimated her class the other day. Congratulations."

Mo Xinghai smiled, "My granddaughter is really remarkable."

"She is. But she's still no match for my student." Bai Yiyuan grinned.

"Come on, how great can your student be? Supra-godly talent? You must be exaggerating." Mo Xinghai looked skeptical.

Mo Yun was exceptional, ranked in the top three of her generation within the human race. Now that she had sublimated her class, she was arguably ranked first. If even she couldn’t compare... then how extraordinary must this student be?

"Your granddaughter knows my student. He was the one who helped her obtain the Blackened Soul Crystal."

Mo Xinghai immediately knew who Bai Yiyuan's student was and couldn't help but show a look of surprise, "You're unexpectedly his teacher..."

...

Lin Moyu proceeded forward under the scarlet light, periodically unleashing his newly acquired skill, Poison Star Ring. After consuming a portion of his spirit force, he would take a bite of the Earth Evil Centipede's leg meat to replenish his spirit force, keeping its level above 80%.

It took Lin Moyu eight whole days to travel from the Soul Devour Insect Territory to the central area of the Immemorial Battlefield. Strictly speaking, he had merely set foot into the central area.

According to Ling Yizhan, the central area was much more dangerous and expansive than the outskirts. It would take at least a month to reach the true core area from the edge of the central area.

Furthermore, most of the time, the Divine Selection Secret Realm that Lin Moyu sought appeared near the core area.

The central area wasn't strictly defined. Its boundary was marked by the absence of monsters below level 50, making it a domain dominated by monsters above level 50.

In the same vein, no Abyssal Demon nor class user below level 50 roamed here. Lin Moyu was an outlier—a level 30 human class user without the support of a party or an elder, accompanied only by two level 30 skeletons with seemingly weak attributes.

In this domain, he was an easy target, practically a delicacy for the monsters. Radiating the scarlet light, Lin Moyu was like a giant beacon, glowing wherever he went.

Ling Yizhan continued to follow from a few hundred meters away, not daring to get too close due to the danger.

A while after leaving the Earth Evil Centipede's territory, more blind fools came seeking trouble.

Over a few days, more than a hundred Dragonkind class users had perished at Lin Moyu's hands. From his point of view, these Dragonkind class users were quite generous, offering equipment, military merit, and EXP. His military merit had already reached 200,000.

During these days, some human class users had also approached and made contact with Lin Moyu. Some offered protection, but he refused them all, just as he had with Ling Yizhan.

These people didn't pester him and quickly left. When they saw Ling Yizhan and his party behind Lin Moyu, they revealed knowing expressions, thinking that they were protecting Lin Moyu. Some people even gave Ling Yizhan and company a thumbs-up.

This made Ling Yizhan feel both amused and exasperated. Who was protecting whom? He really wanted to shout, "You've got it all wrong!"

Upon reaching the central area, Ling Yizhan and company ceased following Lin Moyu. This place wasn't safe for them. They usually operated on the periphery and seldom ventured this deep.

In just a few days, a series of fierce battles took place, imbuing Lin Moyu with a strong murderous aura.

Unlike in dungeons where only monsters appeared, the Immemorial Battlefield also featured intelligent creatures like Dragonkind class users and Abyssal Demons, who could mount surprise attacks and cooperate. Killing them was vastly different. This was genuine murder, with murderous intent building up with each battle.

Lin Moyu gazed into the distance. Ling Yizhan told him that it was the direction of the core of the Immemorial Battlefield's upper layer.

Lin Moyu had learned how to navigate the Immemorial Battlefield—follow the light. The light flowed outward from the core. Therefore, in order to reach the core area, you had to move against the light's flow.

In this place, there were no cardinal directions, there was only the core.

"I have been waiting for so long already, and they still haven't come?" Lin Moyu muttered to himself, "Only two days left. There's not much time."

Over the past four days, Lin Moyu was battered with wave after wave of Dragonkind class users, while only a few Abyssal Demons had shown up.

Was it because there were few Abyssal Demons here? Lin Moyu didn't think so. On the Immemorial Battlefield, the number of Abyssal Demons was no less than any other race.

The fact that Lin Moyu hadn't seen many Abyssal Demons in the past few days could only mean one thing: they were biding their time, waiting for an opportunity.

Lin Moyu was also waiting, anticipating the chance to gain military merit. He believed that the Abyssal Demons would definitely come. The Succubus who had escaped previously wouldn't give up so easily. After all, the allure of the Primordial Rune was just too great...

Just as this thought crossed Lin Moyu's mind, a beam of light suddenly shot up into the sky. It was the same scarlet light that was rising from him.

"Primordial Rune!" Lin Moyu was startled. Someone had obtained a Primordial Rune.

Subsequently, the scarlet light darted swiftly through the air, its bearer mounted on a pure-white Unicorn that emitted hallow radiance, leaving a long trail of brilliance in its wake.

The scarlet light, mingling with the hallow white light, was not merely conspicuous, but shone like a giant beacon, far brighter than Lin Moyu's light.

"It's her!" Lin Moyu was taken aback. It was surprisingly Mo Yun.

She had also come to the Immemorial Battlefield and acquired a Primordial Rune. Her expression remained as cold as ever, tinged with pride, yet her eyes betrayed a hint of panic.

When she emerged, a trace of the aura of teleportation filled the air, which didn't escape Lin Moyu's senses. She had used a Teleportation Talisman to get here.

There was someone pursuing her.

"Mo Yun, come here!" Lin Moyu barked, his voice amplified by spirit force, carrying far.

Mo Yun noticed another scarlet light shine in addition to hers, and her eyes flashed with surprise. She hadn't expected that someone else would obtain a Primordial Rune like her.

When she heard the voice, she was even more surprised. She looked down and saw Lin Moyu on the ground. For some reason, seeing him made her feel reassured.

Although the two hadn't interacted much, but Lin Moyu had left a deep impression on her, especially his combat power. Despite how prideful she was, she had no choice but to acknowledge his power.

"He also obtained a Primordial Rune. Why did he come here at level 30?" Seeing the scarlet light surrounding Lin Moyu, Mo Yun was shocked again.

Mo Yun descended on her Unicorn and asked, "Why did you come to the Immemorial Battlefield?"

Lin Moyu smiled, "My teacher told me to come here and take a look."

Take a look? He came to take a look and just happened to get a Primordial Rune? Mo Yun was about to ask more when suddenly her expression changed drastically. She looked into the distance, where a large group of Abyssal Demons had appeared in the air.

Mo Yun was flustered, saying, "They've caught up. Get on, I'll take you with me!"

As she spoke, she shifted forward, leaving space for Lin Moyu to sit on the Unicorn. The Unicorn was about the size of an ordinary horse and could accommodate two people.

Lin Moyu remained still, as if rooted to the ground, "There's no need to run."

Mo Yun was startled. Did he intend to stay here and die?

Lin Moyu continued, "They should be the ones running."

Among the group of Abyssal Demons, Lin Moyu spotted an old acquaintance: the Succubus that had run from him twice.

When the Succubus Alice saw Lin Moyu a distance away, her expression immediately contorted into a mix of fear, panic, and dread, and she let out a startled cry, "It's Lin Moyu, run!"
