Chapter 505: Asking and Answering Like Old Friends

Antares was speechless.

It realized that it truly didn't know everything.

Lin Moyu's nearly unreasonable passive skills, 100% elemental immunity, ability to neutralize corpse poison - each one exceeded its knowledge.

But the reality was before its eyes, and it couldn't deny it. Its pride wouldn't allow it to deny it either.

Antares finally reluctantly bowed its head to Lin Moyu, "Fine, I admit there are things in the world I don't know."

"Since that's the case, you can ask me anything in the future. I'll tell you what I can."

Antares lowered its head again, lying listlessly on the ground.

This was exactly what Lin Moyu wanted to hear. "I have quite a few questions. Prepare yourself."

"Ask away, let's just chat!" Antares gave up resisting, looking at Lin Moyu as if he was a freak.

Lin Moyu asked his first question, "Do you know about derivative monsters?"

"I know, it's this thing!" Some light appeared in front of Antares, weaving into the shape of a monster.

Four legs, a slender body, especially the tail which was longer than the body.

In Lin Moyu's words, it was a snake with four legs.

Lin Moyu said, "The dragon race found a large number of derivative monsters in a secret realm. They killed them all and built a derivative blood pool to replicate dragon puppet warriors."

Antares sneered, "I know about that. The derivative blood pool is just a high-grade item, it can only replicate up to level 70 creatures. Not very useful."

"And I can tell you a secret - the dragon race is courting death by doing this."

Lin Moyu pressed, "Why do you say that?"

Antares shook its head, "I'll tell you what I can. This question is something I can't talk about. Ask something else."

Lin Moyu didn't insist on Antares answering. He knew when to stop, firmly grasping the limits.

Lin Moyu continued asking, "Alright, I'll ask something else. Why can't I replicate myself?"

Antares answered casually, "It can only replicate lower races."

This time it was Lin Moyu's turn to be shocked.

He didn't expect such an answer.

Seeing Lin Moyu's shocked expression, Antares laughed somewhat neurotically.

Finally scored a point!

Antares felt very satisfied.

It had decided to stop there on this question. No matter how much Lin Moyu asked, it wouldn't answer further.

Let Lin Moyu stew.

Antares thought it had hidden its intentions well, but the smugness in its eyes betrayed it.

After the initial shock, Lin Moyu didn't continue asking about this question.

Instead, he started talking about other trivial matters.

This made Antares depressed instead.

It cursed Lin Moyu countless times in its heart. When answering questions, it started calling him "little bastard" with every sentence to vent its dissatisfaction.

Lin Moyu didn't mind, and also called it directly by name.

The two individuals of completely unequal strength were now conversing like friends.

Antares was actually very curious about Lin Moyu's career, but out of pride, it was too embarrassed to ask.

Now with this back-and-forth Q&A, it finally understood some details of Lin Moyu's career, and learned how Lin Moyu had raised his poison elemental immunity to 100%.

When Lin Moyu took out the Poison God's corpse and placed it in front of Antares, Antares was shocked again.

"Little bastard, do you know what you've obtained?" Antares' tone became serious, an astonishing aura emanating from its body.

Under its aura, the Poison God's aura didn't spread outwards.

This was a complete god corpse, not just a bone or a limb.

Its aura might not even be concealed by the Divine Summer Tower.

Lin Moyu said, "A complete god corpse. By studying and comprehending it, it can help our human race produce more god-level experts, and allow god-level experts to advance."

"I know I shouldn't let others know of its existence, but since it's in my possession, there will be a day when I have to take it out."

Antares snorted, "You don't understand shit. What you know is all what that Jiang Yi guy told you, right?"

Lin Moyu nodded. His initial understanding of deities did come from Jiang Yi.

When Jiang Yi gave him a fragment of a god's finger back then, he had solemnly instructed not to show it to anyone.

Meng Anwen and Bai Yiyuan also took it very seriously.

But a finger fragment couldn't compare to the Poison God's complete corpse.

Moreover, the Poison God was a mid-tier god.

Antares said, "Gods generally don't leave corpses. They are the darlings of the world, aggregates of elements, the ultimate manifestation of a certain element."

"They are hard to kill, and even if they die, they leave a glimmer of life."

"Occasionally finding a tiny piece of a god's body is already extremely lucky. For you to get a complete god corpse, I suspect you might be heaven's illegitimate child."

Antares' gaze was a bit strange, looking at Lin Moyu more like a monster.

It had never seen anyone obtain a complete god corpse before.

Lin Moyu chuckled, "Let's say that's the case. What exactly is a god corpse useful for?"

Antares said, "Didn't I say? Gods are the ultimate manifestation of elements. Don't you understand what that means?"

"I don't!" Lin Moyu said firmly and honestly. He really didn't understand.

He hadn't touched on this area yet.

Human education in any era has a gradual progression. Only at specific levels can one learn certain knowledge.

Knowing too early isn't beneficial.

Antares said, "The ultimate manifestation of elements is laws. You should be able to sense the strong aura of laws on it."

"All gods have some aura of laws. The Poison God is a mid-tier god, so the laws are more obvious."

"The Fire God is a low-tier god, so its law aura is much weaker."

"The reason god corpses are treasures is because of the laws contained in their bodies. By comprehending and studying these laws, your human god-level experts can rapidly improve."

Antares was very generous this time, explaining a lot to Lin Moyu.

It made Lin Moyu understand the true purpose of god corpses.

Different gods represent different elements.

Human careers all have corresponding elemental skills. To improve, they need to deepen their understanding of laws.

Lin Moyu understood the importance of god corpses, but had a new question, "But as far as I know, there are no human careers that use poison elemental skills."

Antares snorted lightly, "Don't you understand drawing inferences?"

"What about this then?"

Accompanied by thunder and lightning, an even more powerful aura of laws surged out compared to the Poison God's corpse.

Lin Moyu took out the electric law god crystal.

Antares just glanced at it, "Of course law god crystals are useful. And an electric law god crystal is priceless for mages specializing in electricity. Even a full set of legendary equipment can't compare to this little thing."

"By the way, how did you find the Lightning God?"

Lin Moyu recounted how he found the Lightning God.

Antares sighed a bit, "That woman was too foolish. I told her not to go, but she insisted on going. Look what happened, she died."

"She had a chance to revive, but insisted on maintaining her final true spirit. Gods are all stubborn idiots!"

So they knew each other, and seemed to have a decent relationship.

Lin Moyu wanted to ask more, but Antares interrupted him, "Don't ask anymore. I won't tell you even if you ask!"

As it spoke, a beam of light shot from its eyes, hitting the Poison God's corpse.

The previously rampant divine aura immediately weakened.

Antares said, "I've sealed its aura. Don't take it out casually in the future. Your human race isn't as peaceful internally as you think."

Lin Moyu put away the Poison God's corpse and said sincerely, "Thank you!"

Antares snorted lightly, saying grumpily, "You're welcome! Any more questions?"

They had been chatting for half a day. Antares thought Lin Moyu had asked everything he wanted to ask.

Unexpectedly, Lin Moyu said, "One more, about the Divine Summer Ancient City."

"I entered the Ancient Thunder Tower and saw some scenes."

He described the scenes he saw.

Antares shook its head, "I know of the Ancient City's existence. Its history predates me, so I don't know its past."

This was the first time Antares actively admitted there were things it didn't know.

Lin Moyu hadn't expected the Divine Summer Ancient City's history to predate Antares.

This was unexpected.

Lin Moyu couldn't help but feel solemn respect. He felt the Ancient City's origins must be extraordinary!
