Chapter 2468: 2468 **Chapter 2468: Depriving Intelligence, Terrifying Means** Lu Fengyao was not polite at all, and Lin Moyu didn’t mind. He directly squeezed out a drop of essence blood onto the jade token. The jade token immediately emitted a brilliant light, and Lin Moyu felt a connection forming between himself and the jade token. With a soft sound, the jade token split into two. Lu Fengyao handed half of the jade token to Lin Moyu, "From now on, you are a high-level member of the Lu Feng Chamber of Commerce. This half of the jade token is your identification." "Whenever you come to the Lu Feng Chamber of Commerce, just show this half of the jade token, and you can get a 20% discount on purchases." "The fish bone you gave me will be converted into origin crystals and stored in your member account when I return." "Auntie always does business fairly and justly, never taking advantage of anyone!" Lu Fengyao’s voice was not low, and everyone present could hear it. She was making it clear to others that there was no way to take advantage of Lin Moyu. Several Celestial Sovereigns who had been harboring small thoughts immediately abandoned their ideas. With the Lu Feng Chamber of Commerce involved, it was difficult to take advantage of Lin Moyu. At this moment, Lu Fengyao handed another jade token to Lin Moyu and transmitted her voice, "The uses of the World Gem are all recorded inside. Take a look yourself." "If you really want to sell the World Gem, remember to find me. When you arrive at the Origin Continent, you can find me at the Lu Feng Chamber of Commerce." Lin Moyu was slightly stunned, "Is Sister Fengyao’s world about to advance to the seventh level?" Most Celestial Sovereigns participate in the World Competition for the seventh-level world origin. Before reaching the seventh level, few would voluntarily end it. Lu Fengyao said, "I was still a bit short, but now with the World Gem, it should be fine." "I might return to the Origin Continent soon. When you see me again, Auntie might already be a Dao Sovereign." "By then, Auntie will cover you, and you can do whatever you want." Lin Moyu was speechless. This young lady who called herself Auntie seemed too excited. But Lin Moyu still followed her words, "Then congratulations to Sister Fengyao in advance. When I come to the Origin Continent, I’ll rely on you." Lu Fengyao took it all in stride, "Just come, I’ll take care of your food and lodging!" She was indeed double-standard: ruthless to enemies but generous to her own people. However, Lin Moyu appreciated and liked this kind of double standard. In the distance, a peculiar sound was heard, and Lin Moyu’s soul slightly trembled. He saw those unconscious people waking up one by one. After they woke up, their eyes seemed a bit dazed before returning to normal. The King of the Realm Sea appeared above them, and the same process repeated. Those people also took out fish bones in exchange for rewards. However, their rewards were not World Gems but origin crystals. Each fish bone could be exchanged for a fifth-level origin crystal. These were not ordinary fifth-level origin crystals but high-quality ones, similar to the origin fire Lin Moyu had obtained before. Although these origins were not as valuable as World-level origins, they were still quite valuable. From everyone’s expressions, it was clear that they were quite satisfied with such rewards. "Something’s wrong!" Lin Moyu observed their every move and felt something was off. Their every word and action, every small expression, seemed to carry a hint of dullness. No one who can become a Celestial Sovereign is a fool; they are all smart people. Regardless of their personality, the liveliness in their eyes and demeanor is unmatched by ordinary people. But now, that liveliness was gone from these people. Although it was a small change, Lin Moyu keenly captured it. He immediately realized what was happening, "Their intelligence has weakened!" He thought of the whale. To revive, it needed not only immense life force to restore its body but also to restore its soul. Not just the soul itself but also intelligence. The King of the Realm Sea used a very special method to deprive these Celestial Sovereigns of part of their intelligence. The deprivation was minimal, so much so that they couldn’t even feel it, at most thinking their souls had suffered some insignificant damage. This minor damage wouldn’t affect their realm or cultivation; they were still as powerful as before. But Lin Moyu knew their foundation had been damaged, making it almost impossible for them to advance further. Unless they had some extraordinary opportunity, they would never become Dao Sovereigns. They would remain Celestial Sovereigns forever. For a Celestial Sovereign, being unable to advance to Dao Sovereign for life is a despairing thought. Soon, their souls would recover, and no one would notice what had happened. A chill rose from the depths of Lin Moyu’s soul. He never expected it to be like this. The King of the Realm Sea didn’t kill them, but what he did was even more terrifying than killing them. If he hadn’t prematurely destroyed the altar, he might have ended up like these people, unconscious and deprived of part of his intelligence without even realizing it. Lin Moyu wasn’t sure if his new life talent would have worked if this had happened to him. "The means of a Dao Sovereign are indeed terrifying." "Destroying someone’s future without them even knowing." Lin Moyu sighed in his heart, grateful to have avoided this disaster. At this moment, Lu Fengyao’s voice came to his ear, "What are you looking at?" Lin Moyu replied, "I’m looking at their rewards, which are different from ours." Lu Fengyao said, "Yes, they only got fifth-level origins. Although not bad, they can’t compare to World Gems." "I don’t know why, but they seem quite happy." Lin Moyu naturally wouldn’t reveal his discovery. If he did, he might not live long. No longer paying attention to them, Lin Moyu took the jade token given by Lu Fengyao and checked its contents. During the World Competition, many treasures are used for the competition. World Gems are one of them, with great and simple uses. Their biggest use is to promote the Realm Sea World. To advance, the Realm Sea World needs to devour the origins of other worlds. Many strange fish in the Realm Sea possess origins, filled with impurities. After being refined by the Realm Sea World, they can enhance it to some extent. If the Realm Sea World is injured, it can also use them for recovery, as long as the injury isn’t too severe. But if the injury is too severe or if the Realm Sea World wants to advance, they become useless. It must devour other Realm Sea Worlds or directly use World-level origins. Another method is using World Gems. World Gems are a special type of World-level origin, not for cultivation or fusion with spells but for advancing the Realm Sea World. The higher the level of the Realm Sea World, the more World Gems are needed, and the higher the quality required. According to Lu Fengyao, the World Gems they received were high-quality, capable of advancing a sixth-level world to a seventh-level world. A weak sixth-level world needs only three such World Gems to advance to the seventh level. Lu Fengyao’s sixth-level world was already strong, needing only one gem. Xiong Tianzun’s sixth-level world might not be strong enough, needing more than one gem, which is why he wanted to buy one from Lin Moyu. Lin Moyu didn’t know the stage of his Realm Sea World, but with three World Gems, it was certainly enough. No wonder the Celestial Sovereigns envied him; World Gems were highly coveted treasures. A rumbling sound came from the square, and the ground trembled slightly. Lin Moyu felt the square rising, leaving the depths of the Realm Sea. They were going back!
