Chapter 3212: Can He Unlock That Place?
Among the tens of thousands of dazzling formations, Lin Moyu finally saw what he wanted to see.
As he had guessed, the core of all the Hurricane Warshipâs formations was a grand formation composed of divine runes.
Lin Moyu had once suspected that the Hurricane Warship came from that prehistoric era.
And in the prehistoric era, divine runes were used the most.
During the Ancient Battle Secret Realm, when he joined the Divine Rune Army, Lin Moyu had already realized that divine runes were extraordinary.
Divine runes seemed to be something beyond this current era, a higher level of thing than runes.
They could be used to set up formations and could also be used independently.
In the prehistoric era, divine runes were cultivated and mastered. In the current era, they had been completely lost.
So, the core of the Hurricane Warshipâs formations was divine runes.
Those formations seen on the outside were just the surface.
Thatâs why even if he completely replicated the formations, it would be useless, because without divine runes, the formations were destined to fail.
However, learning divine runes wasnât so easy. It was much more difficult than learning runes.
If it were easy to learn, Lin Moyu would have already learned it in the Ancient Battle Secret Realm.
Although he didnât fully understand, Lin Moyu still tried hard to analyze and learn the divine runes.
When he first encountered runes, it was like this. Without anyone teaching him, he could still see some clues.
Self-enlightenment was something only Lin Moyu could do.
Divine runes had been lost in the current era, but that didnât mean he couldnât learn them.
All things come from the same source. No matter how complex something is, its ultimate root is still the Dao.
As long as one understands this principle, one can always research and discover something.
Lin Moyu stood there motionless, staring at the divine runes inside the Hurricane Warship, his eyes unblinking, fully concentrated, even somewhat entranced.
Beside him, Lu Xichuanâs expression was a bit strange. He could naturally see what Lin Moyu was looking at.
But he could only look for a while before feeling dizzy, unable to persist for too long.
Yet Lin Moyu could keep looking. The difference between them was obvious.
Lu Xichuan felt more admiration for Lin Moyu in his heart. He knew Lin Moyu must be a powerful formation master.
Lin Moyu was not yet 3,000 years old, and his cultivation realm had reached the third-level Dao Venerable realm, which was already incredible.
He was also a powerful formation master, which was simply unimaginable.
Thinking of himself, he had spent over ten thousand years studying formations, yet was far inferior to Lin Moyu.
Comparisons really are odious!
Lu Xichuan sighed helplessly. Some things really shouldnât be compared.
If one compares everything, life becomes too tiring.
Seeing that Lin Moyu wouldnât be done anytime soon, Lu Xichuan simply sat down on the ground, took out a small table with some food and wine.
With a bit of casualness, he enjoyed the delicacies and fine wine, very leisurely and content.
Lu Xichuan didnât have any competitive spirit. In his eyes, there was only a hint of envy.
Time passed silently. Lin Moyu looked at the divine runes, not knowing how long he had been looking.
When he finally came back to his senses, he smelled a rich wine aroma.
Seeing Lu Xichuan eating delicacies and enjoying fine wine beside him, Lin Moyu chuckled and sat down the next second, "This wine looks quite good."
Lu Xichuan naturally poured a cup for Lin Moyu, "Mr. Lin, please try it. This wine is extraordinary."
Lin Moyu smelled the unique fragrance emanating from the wine cup, "Indeed, itâs quite different from the wines Iâve had before."
Then as the wine entered his throat, it exploded, making his body feel as if it were in a natural grassland.
Given Lin Moyuâs current realm, for a sip of wine to bring such a sensation meant that this wine contained powerful energy.
Lin Moyu nodded slightly, "Indeed extraordinary. What wine is this?"
Lu Xichuan smiled, "Itâs called Hundred Herbs Thousand Flowers Wine. Itâs brewed from parts of a hundred types of cultivated grass-type beings and a thousand types of cultivated flower-type beings."
"This wine is only available in the Hundred Herbs Alliance, and the annual production is very limited. Itâs not easy to buy."
Lu Xichuan frequently traveled between the Eastern and Western Continents. When going to the Western Continent, his final destination was the Hundred Herbs Alliance.
The Hundred Herbs Alliance was full of plants, but cultivating plants also had some special needs. Where thereâs demand, thereâs business, so naturally, people would go there to trade.
Lu Xichuan said, "I only have two great hobbies in life: one is wine tasting, the other is formations."
"Although I like formations, I know my talent is limited. But in wine tasting, I can be considered top-tier."
Lu Xichuan said wine tasting, not drinking, indicating that he wasnât a heavy drinker but someone who truly enjoyed savoring fine wines.
Lin Moyu smiled, "Then please, Senior Lu, enlighten me on what are the best wines in the world?"
Lu Xichuan said cheerfully, "Of course, no problem. But we should go up now. Weâre almost at the center of the Realm Sea. Mr. Lin probably wants to see the great whirlpool, right?"
Lin Moyu was slightly startled, "Iâve been looking for so long?"
Lu Xichuan said, "In cultivation, thereâs no sense of time. It hasnât really been that long."
As he spoke, Lu Xichuan put away the food and wine, then took out a bottle of Hundred Herbs Thousand Flowers Wine for Lin Moyu, "This is for you, Mr. Lin. Itâs a small token of appreciation, please donât refuse."
Lin Moyu didnât refuse and took out a jade tablet for Lu Xichuan, "These are some of my insights on formations. Senior Xichuan can take a look when you have time. Perhaps youâll gain something."
Lu Xichuanâs face showed delight. He knew Lin Moyuâs formation abilities were definitely higher than his own. Getting his insights might really help him.
Lu Xichuan carefully put away the jade tablet, "Thank you, Mr. Lin. Iâm a bit curious, may I ask what level Mr. Linâs formation skills have reached?"
He seemed afraid Lin Moyu would misunderstand and quickly explained, "Iâm not trying to pry. Actually, many formation masters in our Chamber of Commerce have come here and seen the formations here, but most couldnât look for even one layer."
"Iâve come to look many times too, but these strange runes, I can only look at for ten minutes at most. Mr. Lin could actually look for so long."
Lin Moyu smiled, "Thereâs nothing to hide. In terms of formation level alone, I should be at the eighth grade."
Lu Xichuan was struck dumb, standing there motionless.
He was shocked. In the entire Origin Continent, there were only a few eighth-grade formation grandmasters.
In the Lufen Chamber of Commerce, there was only one eighth-grade formation grandmaster.
After a while, Lu Xichuan finally recovered from his shock. He became even more respectful towards Lin Moyu, "Mr. Lin is indeed extraordinary. No wonder the Three Ancestors value you so much."
Lin Moyu smiled, "Senior Xichuan is too kind. Iâm just lucky. Alright, letâs go see the great whirlpool."
Lu Xichuan immediately said, "Good, good, letâs go see, letâs go see."
...
Not long after Lin Moyu left, the Three Ancestors in the Commercial City received the corresponding information, "That little Linâs formation skills are so profound. I thought he was just interested in formations. I didnât expect he had reached such a level."
"Looking at it this way, what he went to see wasnât the formations, but the divine runes."
"According to the news from the Northern Continent, little Lin joined the Divine Rune Army, so he should have seen divine runes before."
"Perhaps he really can master divine runes."
"If so, can he unlock that place?"
"Letâs wait and see, wait and see..."
The Three Ancestorsâ voice gradually faded away, and this chaotic space returned to calm once again.
