Chapter 2057: Benefiting from the Lizard God War Palace
Upon arriving at the artifact refining area of the Divine City, Elder Yan was already waiting.
Lin Moyu had sent a message to Elder Yan beforehand, and Elder Yan had indicated that he was not busy, so Lin Moyu went over.
Lin Moyu knew that Elder Yan was a very busy person. Any difficult artifact refining tasks among the human race were usually handed over to Elder Yan.
Elder Yan had delved deeply into the art of artifact refining and was very likely to achieve the Dao of Artifact Refining and reach the level of a Saint.
At this moment, Elder Yan seemed to be not far from becoming a Saint.
"Elder Yan, I'm here to trouble you again," Lin Moyu said with a smile, very politely.
Elder Yan waved his hand, "Tell me, what strange thing do you want to refine this time?"
Lin Moyu replied, "This time, I don't need to refine anything. I have two items that need Elder Yan's help to repair."
Elder Yan frowned slightly, "What needs repairing?"
Lin Moyu took out his warship and the Lizard God War Palace.
The two treasures did not unfold but slowly rotated in Lin Moyu's palm.
"Just these two."
Elder Yan recognized the warship at first glance, as he had repaired it before. Naturally, he knew its capabilities. "It's broken to this extent, even the spatial array is damaged. It seems you encountered a strong enemy."
Then he looked at the Lizard God War Palace, and his eyes lit up, "This is... the Golden Lizard Palace of the Copper Lizard King."
Lin Moyu smiled, "Actually, it's called the Lizard God War Palace. It was refined by human artifact refiners for the Copper Lizard race in ancient times. It is actually a human artifact."
Elder Yan murmured, "No wonder, I thought it looked familiar! If it was refined by humans, there should be a hidden human core inside."
Lin Moyu immediately flattered, "Elder Yan is indeed the number one artifact refiner of our time, with unparalleled insight. There is indeed a hidden core."
Elder Yan didn't pay attention to Lin Moyu's flattery. At this moment, he was staring at the Lizard God War Palace without blinking. The Lizard God War Palace was a masterpiece of ancient artifact refiners, and repairing it was also a learning process.
Ancient artifact refiners were undoubtedly stronger than those of today.
Perhaps the Lizard God War Palace was the work of a supreme artifact refiner. To Elder Yan, nothing could compare to it.
Lin Moyu tentatively asked, "Elder Yan, can it be repaired?"
Elder Yan immediately replied, "Of course, it can. I'll take this job, and I can promise you that as long as I have the materials, I won't charge you a single cent."
**No Charge?**
Lin Moyu had originally planned to spend a lot of Divine City merits, as this was an ancient artifact, and the materials needed were very precious.
But unexpectedly, Elder Yan agreed to do it for free.
Lin Moyu couldn't help but ask, "Does Elder Yan have any other requests? Feel free to mention them."
Elder Yan chuckled, "You're quite smart. My request is that you don't set a time limit. I want to study it thoroughly while repairing it."
"Of course, I know you need to go out. I can repair your warship within three days, also for free."
Lin Moyu couldn't help but laugh. He didn't expect to benefit from the Lizard God War Palace in the end.
Since Elder Yan had this request, Lin Moyu naturally agreed.
Moreover, the Lizard God War Palace wasn't of much use to Lin Moyu; it was just for fun.
Lin Moyu handed over his warship and the Lizard God War Palace to Elder Yan, "I'll leave it to you, Elder Yan."
He then sat down nearby, not disturbing Elder Yan.
Elder Yan immediately got to work, first repairing the warship to quickly get Lin Moyu out of the way.
As for the Lizard God War Palace, he wanted to repair it slowly and study it thoroughly.
Lin Moyu watched and couldn't help but laugh. He could easily guess Elder Yan's thoughts.
Elder Yan's excitement was too obvious, like a child who had received a gift and couldn't wait to open it.
Lin Moyu naturally didn't say anything. He focused his mind on his soul.
His soul was still continuously drawing the World Burning Talisman, which appeared and then collapsed repeatedly.
Over these days, he had drawn the World Burning Talisman countless times, more than tens of thousands.
But not once had he succeeded; each time, the World Burning Talisman had a flaw.
It looked perfect, but there was always a problem.
Even with Lin Moyu's patience, he was getting a bit anxious.
"Where exactly is the problem?" Lin Moyu thought to himself. He felt that it wasn't a matter of incorrect drawing but rather missing some key points.
According to the mysterious master, once the World Burning Talisman was successfully drawn, it could transform into a World Burning Fire Seed, meant to refine the world.
Lin Moyu was very sure that he had drawn the World Burning Talisman perfectly, but it just wouldn't succeed.
"Where exactly is the problem?"
Lin Moyu started from the beginning of drawing the talisman, checking each step.
"There is no problem with the soul power."
"The technique is also correct."
"Could it be that this talisman cannot be drawn in the soul world?"
Lin Moyu had a thought and raised his hand, starting to draw the World Burning Talisman in reality.
Soul power flowed to his fingers, using his finger as a pen and his soul as ink. Ten seconds later, a World Burning Talisman appeared.
The World Burning Talisman was perfect, with an indescribable beauty.
From a distance, it looked like a flame, constantly flickering with space and time.
But in the next second, the World Burning Talisman spontaneously combusted, and the flame collapsed.
"Failed again. What is missing?"
Lin Moyu fell into deep thought. Since he started learning talismans, no talisman had stumped him.
Even ancient talismans were only beyond his reach due to his insufficient level.
Once he reached the required level, ancient talismans were no longer a problem.
But the World Burning Talisman had genuinely stumped him.
This talisman seemed simple compared to ancient talismans.
But no matter how he drew it, he couldn't succeed.
"The problem isn't in the drawing process, nor in the soul power, nor is it related to the soul world or the real world."
"Then where is the problem?"
A peculiar aura rose from Lin Moyu, his luck surged, white mist swirled around his head, and the sound of dragon roars echoed.
Raising his luck to the highest, Lin Moyu began drawing the World Burning Talisman again.
In desperation, Lin Moyu decided to use his luck to try to find the problem.
The World Burning Talisman was drawn in his soul's hand, and after three seconds, it collapsed again.
Lin Moyu's soul slowly spoke, "It seems... something is different."
"Previously, it lasted one second. This time, it lasted three seconds."
"Is it because of good luck?"
Lin Moyu pondered, feeling like he had grasped something.
He then drew the talisman several more times. Although they all ended in failure, each World Burning Talisman lasted three seconds.
It was an improvement from before.
Lin Moyu gradually found the clue, and then a flash of insight struck his soul, and he finally understood.
"The World Burning Talisman is not purely a talisman. It requires external forces."
"There are several external forces. One is the power of disaster souls, the fundamental power for drawing the World Burning Talisman."
"The second external force is the power of the void. I don't control the power of the void, but I have the Explosive Luck Technique, which brings me a trace of the power of the void."
"The third force is the power of reality. The World Burning Talisman can transform into a World Burning Fire Seed, so it needs a catalyst, something that can turn it into a World Burning Fire Seed."
"Let's use this!"
Lin Moyu had a sudden inspiration. A gray flame, the Undying Flame, appeared in his soul's hand.
Compared to the soul fire, Lin Moyu felt that the Undying Flame was more suitable.
Soul power was injected into the Undying Flame, and the two forces merged. He began drawing the World Burning Talisman again.
