I shouldn’t be greedy.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Stopping while I’m ahead is wiser. Excessive greed only invites trouble.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Moyu firmly cautioned himself to act with moderation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, space seemed to twist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When he opened his eyes again, he found himself back inside the pavilion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After returning, his soul rank had clearly risen, and his senses had sharpened considerably.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The pavilion still exuded antiquity and desolation, but now Lin Moyu sensed something more—a heavy pressure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Previously, he had been focused entirely on the trial and hadn’t paid close attention.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, with the trial complete and both skills acquired, his mind finally relaxed. Only then did he notice the hidden pressure beneath the ancient and desolate atmosphere.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No… there’s more than pressure. There’s killing intent.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Moyu frowned. The sensation was unmistakable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This pavilion was a weapon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It had seen battlefields, slain countless enemies, and been soaked in blood, blood of powerful beings.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Otherwise, such killing intent could not have persisted for countless years without fading.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Like the lingering aura left on him by the Dragonkind, this was the residual presence of powerful individuals at the moment of their deaths.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You’ve guessed correctly, Young Friend.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A sudden voice came from ahead. Lin Moyu looked up to see a stone table that had appeared outside the pavilion at some point.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An old man sat beside it, tea already brewed. The fragrance drifted toward Lin Moyu along with the voice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The secret realm itself was filled with enchanting scents, yet even they could not conceal the aroma of the tea.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This tea is extraordinary.” Lin Moyu thought to himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had tasted countless fine teas—every one served at the White Court Courtyard was of the highest quality—but compared to this, they were worlds apart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Moyu stepped out of the pavilion and approached. Only when he drew closer did he clearly see the old man’s appearance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He froze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After several seconds, he recovered and hurriedly bowed, “Greetings, Senior.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was the same old man who had ridden a green ox through the starry sky, annihilating countless powerful enemies with a mere wave of his hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Moyu suspected that this man was Laozi of legend, but he dared not ask.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The old man smiled faintly, “Young Friend, you have many questions, do you not?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Moyu nodded, then quickly shook his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The nod is instinct, the desire to ask. The shake is restraint; fear that the more you know, the sooner you may die.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Moyu stared at him in shock.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If it had been a guess, that would be one thing. But if it wasn’t…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cold sweat broke out across Lin Moyu’s back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The old man continued calmly, “You’re thinking that if this were merely a guess, it wouldn’t be frightening. But if it weren’t… then it would be.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He knew… again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Moyu’s heart skipped a beat. Abandoning further speculation, he said plainly, “Senior, please stop teasing me.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The old man gestured to the stone stool beside the table, “Sit. Have some tea.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Moyu shook his head, “In Senior’s presence, I dare not sit. I will stand.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The old man chuckled, “Then you expect me to crane my neck to speak with you?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Moyu smiled awkwardly and immediately moved to sit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before doing so, he picked up the teapot and poured a cup for both the old man and himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The tea was colorless, clear as water, yet its fragrance was overwhelming.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Moyu sat down and gazed into the cup, unable to help himself, “This tea is truly extraordinary.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The old man smiled, “You haven’t even tasted it. How do you know?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Moyu replied without hesitation, “Its aroma is so pervasive that even the unique scents of this secret realm cannot suppress it.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“And?” The old man prompted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Moyu gathered his courage and continued, “Moreover, tea usually has color, yet this tea is completely colorless. Fragrance without color, this alone proves it is extraordinary.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The old man nodded, smiling faintly, “Although you’re talking nonsense, you pass. Since you claim it’s extraordinary, drink it.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Thank you for the gift, Senior!” Lin Moyu did not hesitate. He lifted the cup and drank.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The tea was like clear water, utterly tasteless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before the liquid could even pass his throat, it turned into vapor within his mouth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the next instant, a surge of pure energy shot straight toward his soul.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Nine-Colored Dragon Soul Crystal showed no reaction, allowing the energy to flow freely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His soul felt as if it were bathed in sweet dew, and an indescribable sense of comfort washed over him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His soul rank surged upward, rising an entire level in an instant, reaching level 92.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The higher one’s soul rank, the harder it was to advance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It had taken him a long time to progress from level 90 to level 91, yet a single cup of tea carried him from level 91 to level 92.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Senior, your methods are truly unfathomable.” Lin Moyu exclaimed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had already realized that concealing anything from this old man was pointless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was far safer to be direct and sincere.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If the old man harbored any malice, there would be no need for such roundabout measures. One glance would suffice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The old man asked, “Now you finally speak honestly. Why does a good child like you cultivate so many schemes?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Moyu gave a wry smile, “There are too many mysteries in this world that I cannot resolve. I seek answers, and some answers cannot be obtained without a bit of cleverness.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The mysteries you speak of are clear as day to me.” The old man said, “Do you know why?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Moyu answered plainly, “Strength, realm, and insight.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The old man nodded in satisfaction, “Not bad. And then?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Moyu continued, following his lead, “So I shouldn’t try to be overly clever, nor pursue answers too early. When strength is sufficient, when realm is achieved, when insight broadens, the answers will naturally reveal themselves.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The old man hummed in acknowledgment and took a sip of tea, “Understand one principle, and a hundred follow. There is no need for deliberate striving. The more forced the effort, the poorer the result.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You need only keep a pure heart and continue climbing upward. The answers will appear on their own.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Moyu’s eyes lit up, “I will remember that, Senior.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The old man then asked, “Do you know why Gui Fu wanted to kill you?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Moyu heard the name for the first time, yet immediately understood. Gui Fu was the old man who had presided over the trial earlier.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He shook his head, “I don’t know, but I believe it’s related to my second Primordial Skill.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The old man nodded, “Then have you ever wondered whether the ancient starry sky you saw earlier was real?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I had my doubts.” Lin Moyu answered honestly, “But my intuition told me it was real, that you truly wiped out countless powerhouses with a single wave of your hand.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The old man smiled, “If that is so, and Gui Fu claims to be my servant, how did you dare disobey him?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Moyu smiled awkwardly, knowing his small trick had not escaped notice, “I didn’t want to give up the Primordial Skill, yet I also didn’t dare offend him.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hahahaha!” The old man burst into hearty laughter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Moyu suddenly realized that Gui Fu laughed the same way.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No, Gui Fu’s laughter was merely an imitation of this old man. Not just his laughter, but every movement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet Gui Fu imitated only the form, never the essence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Every action of the old man flowed naturally, effortless and unforced, embodying the dao’s harmony with nature.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gui Fu, on the other hand, felt deliberate. This was one of the reasons Lin Moyu had been suspicious of him from the start.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After his laughter subsided, the old man said, “You are very perceptive. You began doubting him early on.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Some of his words were true, and some were false. It is true that I appointed him to oversee the trial space. It is false that he is my servant.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“His desire to kill you was indeed because you sought a second Primordial Skill.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“That stems from a wager I made with him. As for what the wager was, do you wish to know?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Moyu shook his head vigorously, “No. You already told me that when strength, realm, and insight are attained, the answers will naturally reveal themselves.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The old man chuckled, “Good, good. Applying what you’ve learned. You truly are outstanding.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Moyu said sincerely, “Thank you for your guidance, Senior. I will engrave it in my heart.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The old man nodded, “I will now grant you one opportunity to ask a question. Only one.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No matter what you ask, I will answer truthfully.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His intention was obvious: he wished to see what kind of question Lin Moyu would choose.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If the question were too profound, the answer would only confuse him, or even invite disaster. If it were too shallow, it would be disappointing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This single question was yet another test.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a moment of thought, Lin Moyu asked carefully, “May I truly ask anything?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes.” The old man replied, eyes half-closed as he sipped his tea, “Anything.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Moyu took a deep breath, “Gui Fu wished to kill me because of the second Primordial Skill. I want to know—why?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He spoke cautiously, watching the old man’s expression with utmost care.\u003C\u002Fp>",1656,"2026-06-06T10:27:24.747Z",1,"novelbin.me","3c105b8ff45298b9f1fcb7390ff17b5375678533d924f657a39ec9533c2967fb","necromancer-i-am-a-disaster-chapter-635","necromancer-i-am-a-disaster-chapter-633",748,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fnecromancer-i-am-a-disaster-cover.jpg"]
