Chapter 2343: The Differences in Origin Power
The soul void is an extremely mysterious world. Even now, having reached half-step Supreme, Lin Moyu still knows nothing about the soul void.
It's not just him; even all the information in the Great World knows very little about it.
This has nothing to do with realm, but everything to do with knowledge reserves.
The Heavenly Dragon, coming from the dragon clan, has knowledge far surpassing Lin Moyu's in various aspects.
Through the Heavenly Dragon's explanation, Lin Moyu gained a clear understanding of the soul void for the first time.
The soul void is vast and boundless, with no one knowing where its boundaries lie.
If we say that for any cultivator in the Great World, the first world they encounter outside their own is the soul void.
From the perspective of the soul void, the souls of all living beings are in the same space, but this space is so large that even with countless living beings, it's difficult for them to encounter each other.
According to the Heavenly Dragon, the chance of encountering another being's soul in the soul void is almost impossible.
It's like having only ten stars in the Great World; how difficult would it be for these ten stars to meet?
So, the probability of Lin Moyu encountering a lost divine dragon in the soul void is incredibly fortunate.
It's precisely because of the mystery of the soul void that some powerful beings explore its secrets, ultimately getting lost in it and unable to return.
In the world outside the Great World, those qualified to explore the soul void are at least Celestial Venerables, or even Dao Venerables.
However, no one has ever succeeded; almost everyone ends in failure.
But then again, even if someone succeeded and learned some secrets of the soul void, they wouldn't reveal them.
In the history of the dragon clan, some members went to search the soul void and never returned.
Once their souls are lost, their physical bodies quickly fall into death, ignoring the longevity of the dragon clan.
But their souls don't die; they just get lost in the soul void, losing their sense of self and consciousness, retaining only weak instincts.
The divine dragon Lin Moyu encountered might have been lost in the soul void for countless years, perhaps a dragon from billions of years ago, long dead in reality.
Lin Moyu sighed, "Even Dao Venerables can't fully explore the soul void. It's truly mysterious."
The Heavenly Dragon said, "Indeed, the soul void is the most mysterious place below the Great Dao."
"Even in our dragon clan, there are very few records about the soul void."
"Once, a Dragon God went to explore the soul void, and then died shortly after. His body, which should have been eternally immortal, completely rotted away in just a year, turning to ashes!"
Lin Moyu was also surprised; even a Dragon God got lost, truly terrifying.
Lin Moyu thought of the system that disappeared in the soul void, not knowing where it had gone.
It seems that his system is incredibly mysterious and unfathomable.
For now, he suppressed his curiosity about the soul void, knowing it wasn't something he could touch at present.
As they were talking, the refinement of the fish core was mostly complete, just a little more and it would be fully refined.
Lin Moyu asked, "The original owner of the fish core was a Celestial Venerable, right?"
He thought of the Heavenly Dragon's minor injuries when he returned; only a Celestial Venerable could harm a Celestial Venerable.
The Heavenly Dragon shook his head, "No, they were peak Supremes. It's just that the environment they were in was special, allowing them to harm me."
"But at most, they could only scratch my skin. There's an insurmountable gap between Celestial Venerables and peak Supremes."
Lin Moyu asked, "Besides the fish core, did you get any of their bones?"
The Heavenly Dragon seemed to guess what Lin Moyu wanted to do and chuckled, "I know what you're up to, kid, but what's in it for me?"
Lin Moyu asked, "What benefit do you want?"
The Heavenly Dragon said, "It's actually very simple. Promise me one thing: when I come looking for you in the future, you can't refuse."
Lin Moyu said, "Well, it depends on what it is. You can't possibly ask me to commit suicide, so I won't refuse."
The Heavenly Dragon laughed, "Of course not, but I guarantee it won't be asking you to commit suicide."
Lin Moyu felt the Heavenly Dragon's smile was a bit mischievous, even somewhat sneaky, but he still agreed, "Alright, I promise you."
Actually, the Heavenly Dragon didn't need to set any conditions. As long as he asked, Lin Moyu would agree to anything that wasn't too outrageous.
But the Heavenly Dragon just liked to make deals; it seemed to be his habit.
Thinking of Antares, he seemed to have a similar habit. Lin Moyu wondered if it was because they were both from the dragon clan.
The Heavenly Dragon spat out a dragon scale, which contained a storage space filled with a pile of strange fish corpses.
These fish had all been gutted; the fish cores were taken from their bellies.
These strange fish were different from the ones Lin Moyu had killed before. They were larger and covered in spikes, looking quite ferocious.
The Heavenly Dragon said, "This is their flesh. There are eighteen in total, but only three of them produced fish cores."
Lin Moyu looked at the fish corpses, "There seem to be many different types of fish in the Realm Sea. What are these called?"
The Heavenly Dragon said, "Spinefish. Can't you see they're covered in spines?"
Spinefish... quite a direct name.
Lin Moyu thought for a moment about the type of fish he usually killed. They were smaller and didn't have obvious spines, only their tails were a bit special, splitting into five lobes.
He took out a dead fish, "What's this type called?"
The Heavenly Dragon said, "Five-leaf fish."
Lin Moyu asked, "I've seen another type, completely round, with an origin crystal hanging on its head like a lantern. What's that called?"
The Heavenly Dragon seemed annoyed by the questions, "Lanternfish, of course. Just think about it. That origin crystal is very low-grade, not as good as the fish core!"
Lin Moyu noticed the Heavenly Dragon's somewhat smug expression and instinctively started his information-gathering mode, "How would I know so much? Aren't origin crystals and fish cores both origin power? What's the difference?"
The Heavenly Dragon laughed heartily, "Since you're so eager to learn, I'll graciously tell you."
The Heavenly Dragon, unaware of being led on, explained a lot, finally allowing Lin Moyu to understand the differences between various origin powers.
Even among origin powers, there are hierarchical differences. They can be roughly divided into grades one to nine, but within each grade, there are also significant differences.
The lanternfish they encountered before had relatively low-grade origin power. The origin crystals obtained from them were only first-grade origin power, and even among first-grade, they were relatively poor.
The fish core's origin power is a bit stronger, belonging to third-grade origin power.
The origin flame seed Lin Moyu obtained earlier, which the Heavenly Dragon hadn't seen, couldn't be accurately graded. But based on the Heavenly Dragon's description, Lin Moyu thought the origin flame seed should be fourth or fifth grade, stronger than the fish core.
The world crystals obtained from refining the Rule Worlds left by Supremes are second-grade origin power.
The same goes for those remnant worlds.
According to the Heavenly Dragon, origin power above third grade is very difficult to obtain.
Some fish in the Realm Sea do possess fourth-grade origin power, but they are at least Celestial Venerable level. With the environment of the Realm Sea, they are extremely difficult to kill. Often, by the time they're about to be killed, these fish will self-destruct their origin power, making it hard to obtain even after a fierce battle.
The origin power of various worlds also has different grades. For worlds like the Great World that can support Celestial Venerables, their origin power can reach sixth grade.
For worlds like the Battle Realm, their origin power is at most fifth grade.
The Battle Realm wants to absorb the Great World's origin power to reach sixth grade.
Or rather, the person behind the Battle Realm has discovered the Great World as prey.
Besides differences in grades, there are also differences in quality between various origin powers.
Origin crystals obtained from the Realm Sea are of the lowest quality, containing a lot of impurities.
Then there are those refined from remnant worlds, which are slightly better in quality within the same grade.
The origin flame left by the mysterious master is quite pure, its quality among the upper echelons of origin power of the same grade.
The highest quality belongs to the origin power of complete worlds like the Great World.
This type of origin power is called world-class origin power, and its quality is top-tier among the same grade.
Lin Moyu murmured, "It seems the Great World's origin power is very strong."
The Heavenly Dragon said, "Of course, sixth-grade world-class origin power is very rare."
"Alright, the fish core is almost refined. You can go absorb it now!"
"Remember, don't refine it outside in the future."
The Heavenly Dragon cautioned once more.
Lin Moyu nodded and took the dragon soul crystal and fish core into his soul.
Next, he needed to choose which spell to fuse them with.
