 Chapter 2328: If Speed is Not Enough, Make Up for it with Quantity

In the soul world, Lin Moyu condensed soul fire.

The World Tree leaves fell off accordingly, falling into the soul fire and beginning to melt.

World Tree leaves are excellent materials for refining artifacts, and their grade changes with Lin Moyu's soul.

Now that Lin Moyu has a Supreme-level soul, the World Tree leaves, in terms of grade alone, are already considered top-tier materials in the Saint Venerable realm.

The World Tree leaves melted in the soul fire, turning into liquid, and following Lin Moyu's will, condensed into a bead.

Lin Moyu simultaneously focused on two tasks, drawing an ancient talisman.

The ancient talisman was called the Soul-Gathering Talisman, used to collect soul power.

What Lin Moyu was refining was called a Soul Bead, which ancient talisman masters often refined.

Soul Beads store soul power and can release it when needed.

Originally, with the World Tree, he didn't need to store extra soul power and had never thought about refining Soul Beads.

But after several time reversals, Lin Moyu found that there was actually a need to store soul power.

Although the World Tree can replenish soul power, the speed of replenishment has a certain limit.

With Soul Beads, as long as there are enough of them, the speed of replenishing soul power is almost unlimited.

Moreover, Soul Beads have another function: they can provide soul power for the Blood-devouring Puppet.

The process of refining Soul Beads is not complicated; for Lin Moyu, it was extremely easy.

In just a few minutes, a Soul Bead was successfully refined.

Lin Moyu began to infuse soul power into the Soul Bead, but this process lasted a full hour.

The Soul Bead can barely be considered a Saint Venerable-level treasure, and it's a special and relatively fragile treasure.

It has a limit on the speed of absorbing and releasing soul power; it can't be too fast, or it will easily break.

That's why ancient talisman masters would refine large quantities of Soul Beads for emergencies.

Lin Moyu estimated that the soul power a single Soul Bead could store was about one percent of all his soul power.

In other words, it would take a hundred Soul Beads to match all the soul power in his body.

In terms of cost-effectiveness, Soul Beads are indeed not high, which is why he hadn't thought about refining them before.

"If speed is not enough, then make up for it with quantity."

Lin Moyu thought for a moment, then immediately refined another one, handing it to the World Tree after completion, letting the World Tree replenish soul power for the Soul Bead.

The World Tree was idle anyway, so using it for this task wouldn't be a waste.

Lin Moyu was responsible for refining, while the World Tree replenished, greatly improving efficiency.

World Tree leaves kept falling, turning into Soul Bead materials.

Over three years, Lin Moyu didn't know how many Soul Beads he had refined; he had lost count.

He only knew that there was a huge branch on the World Tree that had become bare, with almost all its leaves fallen off.

Three years later, a faint spatial vibration appeared from millions of miles away.

Lin Moyu immediately detected the spatial change, his gaze sweeping over to see the spatial hole.

"It's finally here!"

With a smile on his lips, he took a step and rushed into the spatial hole.

His vision distorted for a moment, then quickly became clear.

Waves of peculiar aura hit him; this was the unique aura of the dragon race.

Even if this world wasn't evolved from the Heavenly Dragon's Dragon Pearl, it was definitely related to the dragon race.

Lin Moyu stood in mid-air, surveying this world.

Million-meter-high mountain ranges, dense forests, and vast rivers surging between the mountains.

Based on Bai Qiuxia's description, Lin Moyu knew that the world he had entered was the same place Bai Qiuxia had been to before.

These landscapes weren't rare; there were plenty in the Great World.

What was rare were the trees in the mountains, which looked somewhat familiar.

Lin Moyu looked carefully and found that no matter how high each mountain was, it only had one tree.

This tree was at the mountain peak, extremely lush, with leaves hanging down like vines, extending over the entire million-meter-high mountain, creating the illusion of dense forests.

"It's the Heavenly Dragon's tree."

"This world is also the Heavenly Dragon's Rule World!"

Lin Moyu finally understood that the tree covering the million-meter-high mountain was very similar to the large tree where the Heavenly Dragon resided.

And the situation in this world was also seven or eight tenths similar to the Heavenly Dragon's Rule World.

At this point, Lin Moyu was eighty percent sure that this world was indeed evolved from the Heavenly Dragon's Dragon Pearl.

He just didn't know if the Dragon Pearl had evolved naturally due to its overwhelming power, or if it had developed consciousness and then imitated the evolution.

If it was the latter, the danger would be much greater.

Lin Moyu had many methods to deal with such evolved worlds.

The Skeleton Divine General appeared, flying in all directions.

The first step was exploration; no matter how dangerous this world was, the Skeleton Divine General would encounter it first.

Millions of Skeleton Divine Generals were enough to flush out all kinds of dangers.

Back then, Bai Qiuxia was able to find a way to survive here, indicating that the dangers in this world were also quite limited.

As long as he was careful about the secret technique in the Dragon Pearl, there wouldn't be any problems.

The Skeleton Divine Generals rushed into the forests but didn't encounter any dangers.

Those large trees seemed to have no offensive capabilities.

The Skeleton Divine Generals then rushed into the great rivers, still encountering no dangers.

The river currents were rapid and the waters extremely clear, but there was nothing inside.

In the high mountains and dense forests, the Skeleton Divine Generals searched thoroughly but found nothing, not even a pebble.

This kind of evolved world had an unreal feeling, belonging to a lower level of evolution, even inferior to some secret realms evolved from ancient talisman fragments.

"According to Bai Qiuxia's account, he found that treasure in the river!"

Lin Moyu focused his search on the rivers.

The world wasn't large; the rivers were only a hundred thousand kilometers long from end to end, and the Skeleton Divine Generals could search the entire river quickly.

Just half an hour later, the Skeleton Divine Generals made a discovery.

At the bottom of the river was embedded a fist-sized gemstone.

The gemstone emitted a faint glow, concealed by the water and not very noticeable.

The Skeleton Divine General brought the gemstone back. This gemstone was identical to the one Bai Qiuxia had obtained.

The gemstone contained a trace of dragon soul aura. It could function similarly to a dragon soul crystal, purifying the soul, making it purer and thus stronger, elevating one's realm.

However, compared to a real dragon soul crystal, the gemstone's effect was somewhat inferior.

In fact, Lin Moyu knew very well that for other cultivators, a dragon soul crystal was a supreme treasure.

But for himself, the effect was much less significant. His soul was too pure, greatly diminishing the presence of the dragon soul crystal.

Lin Moyu held the gemstone and looked into the distance.

"According to Senior Qiuxia, he was attacked shortly after obtaining the gemstone."

"The attack came suddenly, from a creature he had never seen before and could hardly describe, its origin unknown."

"If that's the case, let's wait and see."

Time passed minute by minute, with Lin Moyu holding the gemstone.

About an hour later, an invisible spatial vibration suddenly appeared, causing all the mountains and forests to shake slightly.

Ordinary cultivators would find it difficult to detect this vibration, but Lin Moyu could clearly feel it.

"It's here!"

He said softly, looking towards the distance following the spatial waves.

At the peaks of the distant mountains, streams of invisible force were rising, evolving into illusory divine dragons.

These illusory divine dragons had the form of divine dragons but were only about ten meters long, quite small.

They were entirely composed of soul power, soul dragons, wrapped in seven-colored flames.

Lin Moyu was familiar with the aura of the seven-colored flames; it was identical to the injury in Bai Qiuxia's soul.

"So this is the source of Senior Qiuxia's injury!"
