 **Chapter 2739: The Scale of Antares**

After flying tens of thousands of miles alone, Lin Moyu returned to his secluded chamber through the origin spirit vein.

The Human Emperor saw Lin Moyu return and wanted to ask about the situation, but Lin Moyu ignored him and went alone. This was the first time the Human Emperor saw Lin Moyu like this, not knowing what had happened.

Lin Moyu sat with his eyes closed, appearing calm on the surface, but his heart was in turmoil. The scale that Captain Sang She took out before leaving was a dragon scale.

Moreover, Lin Moyu recognized this dragon scale; it was Antares' dragon scale.

Lin Moyu was certain he was not mistaken; it was indeed Antares' dragon scale.

Although the aura on the dragon scale had changed slightly, he was still 100% sure.

After subtly inquiring with Leiguang, Lin Moyu learned that each squad captain had a dragon scale.

This dragon scale was personally refined by the ruler of the Eastern Spirit Empire, allowing the squad to return to their base through the dragon scale.

"Antares' dragon scale, how did it appear here?"

"The dragon scale here means Antares is also here."

"Has Antares escaped and come to the Eastern Continent?"

"Or has someone controlled him and used his dragon scale to refine treasures?"

Lin Moyu had many speculations. He felt that with Antares' strength, he should have come here voluntarily.

The most likely scenario was that the Eastern Spirit Empire was related to Antares.

It was even possible that Antares was the ruler of the Eastern Spirit Empire.

But this was just a guess, and whether it was true still needed verification.

However, if he thought this way, it made sense that Antares would lead the team to personally deal with the dragon clan.

Although Antares was a member of the dragon clan, he had a grudge against them, so it was reasonable for him to personally take action against them.

Moreover, with his current strength, he couldn't even get close to the Eastern Spirit Empire.

"Even if I reach the Eastern Spirit Empire and find Antares, it seems I can't help him much."

"If Antares wants to return to the dragon clan, he needs enough strength."

"I promised him back then that I would become stronger and return to the dragon clan with him, but now..."

Lin Moyu suddenly opened his eyes, showing determination and seriousness, "I will fulfill my promise. Antares, if you are indeed the one in the Eastern Spirit Empire, wait for me."

Lin Moyu left the secret chamber, looking towards Yudao City. The city was bustling, growing stronger every day.

The population was increasing, cultivators were getting stronger, and fortune was greatly improving.

Lin Moyu could feel that his own fortune had increased by about 30% since Yudao City was established.

His own fortune was already strong, and with an additional 30%, he had far surpassed ordinary people in terms of fortune.

Even those from top forces couldn't compare to him.

At this rate, even without Xiaowu's help, he could reach the peak of fortune.

Lin Moyu took out most of the flesh pieces brought back by Leiguang. The only pity was that the body of the Lunar Earth Treasury Ancient Buddha was not left behind.

However, he did obtain the nearly damaged Buddha bead left by the Three-Pupil Free Buddha.

The immortal flames exploded like fireworks, falling on the flesh pieces.

Origin-level spell: Resurrection of the Dead!

Ancient and vast power appeared silently, quickly regenerating flesh and blood on the corpses, and powerful auras emerged.

Leiguang brought back a total of forty-nine pieces of flesh, with the lowest being at the fourth realm of Dao Sovereign and the highest at the sixth realm.

Among them, thirty were at the fourth realm of Dao Sovereign, making up the majority.

There were sixteen pieces at the fifth realm of Dao Sovereign and only three at the sixth realm.

Lin Moyu kept five pieces each of the fourth and fifth realm flesh, and one piece of the sixth realm flesh, using them as materials for corpse explosion and as his weapons. The remaining flesh was all turned into resurrected beings, giving him twenty-five resurrected beings at the fourth realm of Dao Sovereign, ten at the fifth realm, and two at the sixth realm.

Various demon clan members appeared before him, their flesh reborn, and their souls quickly reconstituted.

Every time he used Resurrection of the Dead, Lin Moyu felt its wonder.

He felt that the existence of this spell was quite unreasonable.

How could dead people be restored to their original state? It was simply unreasonable.

But Lin Moyu felt that as long as it was useful, it didn't matter if it was reasonable or not. Perhaps existence itself was reasonable.

Among the newly resurrected thirty-seven beings, the strongest was the Thunder Light Purple-striped Tiger.

Leiguang had struggled greatly to kill it, and now that it was resurrected, it was even stronger than when it was alive. If it fought Leiguang again, the outcome would be uncertain.

Besides the Thunder Light Purple-striped Tiger, there was another sixth realm Dao Sovereign demon clan member, a strong member of the Golden Lion clan, whose strength was comparable to the Thunder Light Purple-striped Tiger.

The Thunder Light Purple-striped Tiger was named Lei Fangzheng.

The Golden Lion clan member was named Jin Dezong.

From their names, it could be inferred that neither was a direct descendant of their clans.

In the demon clan, there was a peculiar tradition: any true direct descendant would have a two-character name.

Previously encountered Lei Hao was a direct descendant of the Thunder Light Purple-striped Tiger clan.

Whether one was a direct descendant was determined by bloodline, not realm.

Even if Lei Hao's realm was lower than Lei Fangzheng's, his status in the clan would be higher.

The demon clan placed great importance on bloodline. Without a strong bloodline, it was difficult to reach the true peak.

Lei Fangzheng, not being a direct descendant, might be limited to the sixth realm of Dao Sovereign, unable to advance further.

Lei Hao, on the other hand, had the potential to reach higher realms in the future, which was the difference between them.

Jin Dezong was in a similar situation to Lei Fangzheng.

Lin Moyu brought these resurrected beings to the Human Emperor, who questioned them to gather information about the demon clan.

He also informed the Human Emperor that he was going out, heading to the nearest major city.

Since learning that Antares might be in the Eastern Spirit Empire, Lin Moyu had developed a strong curiosity about it.

Coincidentally, he also planned to buy some information from the Lu Feng Merchant Guild.

There was still too little information about the Eastern Continent.

Before leaving, Lin Moyu left Lei Fangzheng in Yudao City.

With a sixth realm Dao Sovereign guarding the city, and Leiguang also helping to watch over it, there shouldn't be any major problems.

Lin Moyu took the remaining resurrected beings with him.

Under the sunlight, the origin shuttle flew across the sky at an astonishing speed, heading towards the distant city.

Lin Moyu's destination was a major city 1.2 million kilometers away, named Star City, built by the Seven Star Holy Land of the Southern Continent.

This city had existed for over ten thousand years, with tight defenses and numerous strong individuals, making it one of the main strongholds of the human race.

Lin Moyu believed that the Lu Feng Merchant Guild had a branch there.

1.2 million kilometers was not too far, and with the speed of the origin shuttle, it would take only half a day to reach.

The Origin Continent was not peaceful, and Lin Moyu didn't know if any accidents would happen along the way.

Fortunately, nothing happened this time. Half a day later, the origin shuttle arrived near Star City.

From a distance, Lin Moyu saw Star City.

His expression changed slightly, as the Star City before him was different from what he had imagined.
