Chapter 3676: 3676 Chapter 3676: The Discernment Beast with Layered Intentions Lin Moyu and the Discernment Beast chatted for a long time, and Lin Moyu asked many questions. Most of his questions were answered, and Lin Moyu realized that he didn’t know much anymore. The questions he asked were beyond what most people would think about. The Discernment Beast also gained a lot from Lin Moyu, almost exchanging one spirit flower for each question. After a while, Lin Moyu bid farewell to the Discernment Beast. The Soul Heart King was waiting outside with the Dragon Lake King beside him. The two small soul domain kings seemed to be in harmony, chatting with each other. Little Python, who was nearby, looked uncomfortable but didn’t dare say anything. The Dragon Lake King’s injuries had healed, and its gaze was complex when it saw Lin Moyu. The Soul Heart King smiled: "Lin Friend, are you done asking questions?" Lin Moyu nodded: "Yes, let’s go." The Soul Heart King nodded and said to the Dragon Lake King: "We might stay in the Dragon Lake Small Soul Domain for a while. Please don’t mind." The Dragon Lake King snorted: "I won’t bother with you." It flew into the mist, heading towards the Discernment Beast. This scene made Lin Moyu feel that the Dragon Lake King was like a child who hadn’t grown up, at least in terms of temperament. Lin Moyu sat on Little Python and said to the Soul Heart King: "Please lead the way. I have some things to think about." The Soul Heart King nodded and led the way without disturbing Lin Moyu. He was considerate and knew that Lin Moyu must have asked many questions and needed time to think them through. Lin Moyu indeed had things to think about, but not about the questions themselves. Instead, he was pondering the Discernment Beast. He had asked many questions that seemed unrelated but actually had internal connections. From the questions and the Discernment Beast’s responses, Lin Moyu could see deeper implications. The Discernment Beast was a void beast that had lived for countless years, with an unknown realm and power. It had the unique ability to hear across countless realms. The current emperors were mostly its juniors, making it the oldest and highest-ranking existence in the Void Realm. Normally, such an existence should have extremely stable emotions, unmoved by joy or anger. However, the Discernment Beast was not like that. It could be surprised, and its actions might deceive, but its eyes couldn’t hide its true feelings. Anything that could surprise the Discernment Beast must be significant. For example, when Lin Moyu mentioned the Shennian Tower and Meng Anwen, the Discernment Beast said it didn’t know, but its eyes betrayed it. "The Discernment Beast knew about the Shennian Tower and Meng Anwen, but the tower was terrifying in its mind, so it dared not speak." "Why was it afraid? Was it afraid of Meng Anwen or the existence behind him, the white-robed old man?" Although Lin Moyu didn’t know the exact answer, he could confirm that Meng Anwen was likely still alive, and the Shennian Tower still existed. The ancient battlefield ruins in the large world, which were destroyed and resembled the Shennian Tower, must have come from somewhere. Meng Anwen had left some information, indicating that there was someone behind him. Otherwise, with Meng Anwen’s power, he couldn’t have left such a large mystery. The person behind Meng Anwen was also one of the figures behind the small world. Without a doubt, it was the white-robed old man. In other words, the Discernment Beast knew about the white-robed old man’s existence but dared not even mention it. "It seems that to unravel this mystery, I’ll have to reach the same realm as the white-robed old man." According to the Discernment Beast, not all emperors wanted to transcend. However, in the history of the Void Realm, many emperors had come and gone. "Emperors have no worries about lifespan. If they don’t find a way to transcend, they are immortal. So, where did these emperors go?" "The Discernment Beast had the opportunity to become an emperor but never did. Instead, it secretly cultivated several emperors. What was its purpose?" In the conversation with the Discernment Beast, Lin Moyu caught some subtle information. The Discernment Beast didn’t want to become an emperor. It was like an existence standing behind the emperors, able to cultivate one emperor after another without becoming one itself. It could watch the changes in the Void Realm over countless years, watching emperors rise and fall, laughing at the turmoil. At the same time, it didn’t want to transcend. The instincts that should be present in void beasts were completely absent in it. It was like a stake firmly planted in the Void Realm, unwilling to leave. All this must have a reason. Becoming an emperor must involve some unpleasant things. Moreover, the Discernment Beast knew about the World Tree leaves and the Golden and Silver Tree sap. Lin Moyu thought it unlikely that the Discernment Beast only learned about them when Lin Moyu offered them to the Soul Heart King. The only possibility was that the Discernment Beast had always known about them and their effects, so it didn’t need to test them. It asked for spirit flowers directly, without demanding anything else, as if the price was already set. 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝙚𝙬𝓮𝙗𝒏𝙤𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝓶 Everything seemed strange. When Lin Moyu asked about the Huaxia world, the Discernment Beast didn’t hesitate, answering as if it had anticipated the question and prepared the answer in advance. Including the information about the three Huaxia worlds in the Jianmu Great Soul Domain and the difficulty of crossing the domain, the Discernment Beast spoke too quickly. Answering too quickly raised questions. The answers seemed prepared, waiting for Lin Moyu to ask. In later questions, the Discernment Beast mentioned the Huaxia world several times, suggesting that Lin Moyu should visit it. Lin Moyu even wondered if the Discernment Beast knew that he had come from a Huaxia world. The more he thought, the stranger it seemed. He felt that the Discernment Beast wasn’t normal, but he had no evidence. Just then, he heard the Soul Heart King’s voice: "Lin Friend, we’ve arrived." The Discernment Beast was drinking tea alone when a white figure appeared before it. The Discernment Beast trembled and slowly bowed its head, its eyes filled with respect: "I have seen you, sir." If Lin Moyu were there, he would have recognized the white-robed old man as the one who gave him the Ancestral Water. The white-robed old man said: "Give them to me." The Discernment Beast respectfully handed over the World Tree leaves, the Golden and Silver Tree sap, and the spirit flowers. The white-robed old man nodded in satisfaction and took the items, saying in a low voice: "Your performance was a bit out of line. I suppose you revealed some clues." The Discernment Beast trembled, keeping its head bowed and not daring to speak. The white-robed old man continued: "But it doesn’t matter much. You’ve completed this task. This is your reward." After giving a few more instructions, the white-robed old man left, leaving a small gourd on the table. The Discernment Beast took a deep breath, picked up the gourd, and said in a low voice: "Little Jinku, come over."
