Chapter 535: Make Your Own Decision
The Moon Empress knew that she needed to share more information about sacred source lifeforms with Lin Yuan during their question-and-answer session.
Could it be that after he contracted a sacred source lifeform, he's trying to find another so that he can fuse them? Is he trying to form a completely new sacred source lifeform? What a strange way of thinking.
When Mystic Moon heard what Lin Yuan said, he almost choked on the roast meat in his mouth.
He admired Lin Yuan's weird thought process.
What kind of weird brain would come up with such a way to maximize their advantage? If what he said was true, then sacred source lifeforms would be able to enhance their abilities by absorbing other sacred source lifeforms!
The Moon Empress noticed that Lin Yuan had almost finished his pork. Thus, she picked up a white Dehua porcelain bowl and filled it up with jujubes as dessert for Lin Yuan.
It was one thing for the Moon Empress to adore Lin Yuan, but this treatment was not giving Lin Yuan a secretive lifestyle.
The Moon Empress was anxious over Lin Yuan's health now because she had been scared silly when he had exited the dimensional rift.
The fright did not stem from the sight of Lin Yuan's desiccated hands, but because the barely 20-year-old Lin Yuan had undergone a marrow contract with sacred source lifeforms. He had allowed sacred source lifeforms to enter his soul.
This was also why the Moon Empress had snapped the rabbit's carrot in half without hesitation and given it to Lin Yuan.
Nevertheless, the Moon Empress was thankful that Lin Yuan had formed a marrow contract with the sacred source lifeforms.
It was a milestone in a spirit qi professional's life when they managed to contract a sacred source lifeform.
There was no way to regret or redo the act.
If Lin Yuan had only formed a blood contract with the sacred source lifeform, then it was likely that he would not be able to utilize it with the same ease as if he formed a marrow contract.
At his age and level of power, Lin Yuan did not understand the difference between a blood contract and a marrow contract.
However, once he became a top expert, the difference would be much more evident.
The Moon Empress saw this coincidence of Lin Yuan contracting a sacred source lifeform as a lucky blessing for him.
When Lin Yuan heard the Moon Empress's reply, he understood that the fusion process of his sacred source lifeforms was out of the ordinary.
Even someone as powerful as the Moon Empress had never heard of something like that.
After waking up, Lin Yuan had noticed there was really a young crowned girl with her eyes closed and a sword in her hands in the depths of his soul.
This was when he knew that the dream he had been having, while he was comatose, had actually taken place in the depths of his soul.
Lin Yuan thought back to the golden light that had enveloped him in the depths of his soul. The light was the exact same color as Morbius' bracelet.
Lin Yuan was not stupid.
After finding Morbius deep asleep, it became clear to him that the golden light, which had enveloped him and caused the two sacred source lifeforms in the depths of his soul to fuse, had belonged to Morbius.
From the moment that Lin Yuan had contracted Morbius, he had felt as though this partner of his was no regular fey.
Before Lin Yuan had any concept of what source-type items were, he had just a.s.sumed Morbius was one.
After coming into contact with source-type items, Lin Yuan had discovered that Morbius did not possess the same kind of abilities as source-type items.
Soon after, Lin Yuan had also come to know about sacred source lifeforms.
Lin Yuan could not help but wonder if his Morbius could also be a sacred source lifeform.
Lin Yuan recalled the wild sacred source lifeforms' terror as they were flooded by the golden light in the depths of his soul, and he made a crazy hypothesis—could there be a level higher than the sacred source lifeform?
Lin Yuan didn't continue asking the Moon Empress about his sacred source lifeforms' fusion process.
Since she had never heard of such a thing, talking about it with her would only cause her to worry.
It was unlikely that the fused sacred source lifeforms would be weak.
Once he was done asking his question about sacred source lifeforms, Lin Yuan raised his head and set down his spoon.
“Master, I met someone called Hunting-Ashes in the dimensional rift. He mentioned someone called Seventh Page War,” said Lin Yuan with utmost seriousness.
The Moon Empress had been serving Lin Yuan jujubes with a smile on her face, but her expression flattened when she heard Lin Yuan's most recent statement.
Cold Moon's features tensed as well.
Mystic Moon's silver eyes narrowed.
The Moon Empress's expression was also solemn for a second, and her original smile quickly replaced it.
She placed the jujubes in front of Lin Yuan and said, “Eat up. These jujubes are great for blood circulation. See if my technique has improved.”
Lin Yuan took note of his Master, Cold Moon, and Mystic Moon's expressions. He knew that they were aware of his intention, and he now also had a general idea of how powerful this Seventh Page War person was.
The fact that the Moon Empress changed the topic the moment the name was mentioned meant that she did not want to divulge too much to him at the moment.
Lin Yuan did not pursue the matter.
Lin Yuan had used all the strength he could muster and even staked his life in order to stop the dimensional rift's evolution. He had done what he thought was right.
Lin Yuan was aware that his powers might be improving, but they still lacked when it came to such events.
Only someone as strong as his Master would be able to handle such events.
Lin Yuan dipped his head and took a mouthful of jujubes. He was surprised to find that they were not as sweet as he imagined.
The pure jujube fragrance seemed to engulf Lin Yuan.
The Moon Empress lifted her hand, and a glowing rainbow ma.s.s appeared in her palm.
“This is your reward from the Spirit Guards for stopping the dimensional rift's evolution. You have already contracted a sacred source lifeform. Your soul needs at least three years to recover before you should try contracting another sacred source lifeform. I arranged this sacred source lifeform for you ages ago. So, you can decide for yourself what you want to do with this sacred source lifeform.”
The Moon Empress handed the sacred source lifeform to Lin Yuan as she spoke.
