**Chapter 2445: Crabs, Strange Fish, and a Dangerous World**

Purple light flickered, and Lin Moyu's shattered body was restored to its original state. After being resurrected, Lin Moyu was still in shock; his newly acquired talent had saved him once again. Reflecting on the recent experience was truly unbearable. The feeling of being torn to pieces without any resistance was extremely unpleasant. Lin Moyu realized that the Realm Sea Token could not absolutely guarantee his safety. Under the force just now, even the light ball of the Realm Sea Token was torn to pieces.

Looking around, Lin Moyu found himself amidst a cluster of reefs, with the faint sound of the ocean in the distance. The Realm Sea Token was not far from him, and Lin Moyu immediately picked it up. Holding the Realm Sea Token, Lin Moyu's eyes flickered, "This place is too dangerous; I should go back." 

"I already have two fish bones in hand; returning now would still be a success, and I can exchange them for some treasures." 

"I have obtained spiritual materials and origin crystals; this trip is not a loss." After much consideration, Lin Moyu decided to return first. He did not want to get involved in this muddy water. No matter what good things might be ahead, they were not something he should touch for now. Lin Moyu activated the Realm Sea Token, intending to return. However, the Realm Sea Token did not work; there was no response. Lin Moyu's face turned grim, "The Realm Sea Token has already been activated once and needs some time before it can be used again."

He had just activated the Realm Sea Token, and now he needed to wait a while before it could be activated again. The exact waiting time was uncertain. Lin Moyu sensed the recovery speed of the Realm Sea Token and calculated that it would take about ten days for it to be usable again. With a bit of helplessness, he thought, "No choice, since I'm here, I might as well stay."

This space had a faint oppressive feeling, making him feel unsafe, so he decided to stay put. He planned to wait for ten days and then leave using the Realm Sea Token. Although cultivators should be brave and forge ahead, they should not do so blindly, or they would face death and destruction. True cultivators must understand when to advance and when to retreat. Advancing when necessary, even at the risk of life and death, is essential. However, when it is time to retreat, one must not hesitate, as a wrong choice could also lead to death and destruction. Lin Moyu did not know if his choice was right or wrong, but he trusted his soul, which told him this place was very dangerous.

Lin Moyu concealed his aura and blended into the chaotic reefs, becoming as still as one of them. The sound of waves echoed, and suddenly, the sound of crawling reached his ears. Following the sound, Lin Moyu saw the source: large crabs. The crabs had peculiar patterns on their bodies, somewhat similar to the patterns on the fish bones but much fainter and weaker. These crabs were about a meter in size, with a pair of huge pincers. The pincers gleamed sharply, and if a reef blocked their path, they would either smash it with their pincers or crush it into pieces. Regardless of the method, the crabs never changed direction; for them, detours did not exist. The reefs here had endured countless years of the Realm Sea's impact and were extremely sturdy. However, in front of the crabs' pincers, they were no stronger than tofu. Lin Moyu could imagine that if those pincers landed on him, he would fare no better than the reefs.

Seeing the crabs getting closer, Lin Moyu felt a bit helpless; some things could not be avoided just by wanting to. Just as he was about to take action, the reef exploded, and several scaly strange fish rushed out from beneath the reef, attacking the crabs. The strange fish had a claw under their belly, which was strong enough to grab the crabs and stuff them into their mouths. The sharp teeth crushed the crabs like cookies.

The pincers of the crabs, which Lin Moyu had thought were incredibly powerful, clashed with the strange fish's scales, producing metallic sounds but failing to break the scales. The strength of these scales was beyond imagination. The crabs were not entirely powerless; Lin Moyu noticed that the thinnest of the crabs' ten legs was incredibly sharp, capable of piercing the strange fish's scales. The crabs quickly reacted to the ambush and began to fight the strange fish. The terrifying power of their battle sent many reefs flying. Lin Moyu took the opportunity to hide his aura and, along with the flying reefs, moved away from the dangerous area. Whether it was the strange fish or the crabs, he could not afford to provoke them. They were like powerful lords, each one no weaker than a high-level Celestial Sovereign. Watching a group of high-level Celestial Sovereigns fighting to the death, Lin Moyu, a peak Supreme, would be courting death if he joined in.

Lin Moyu stayed far away, sensing that this space seemed unusual. Although the battle between the two sides was intense, the aftermath was always contained within a ten-thousand-meter radius. There was an invisible force in this space that suppressed their destructive power. Lin Moyu had noticed this since he first entered. The suppression was weak at first but grew stronger as he delved deeper. Based on his observations, if this space were circular, he was now closer to the center than before. The closer to the center, the stronger the space's suppression.

Lin Moyu originally planned to quietly wait out the ten days, but it seemed difficult now. He silently released the Brocade-Clad Witch, activating the Brocade Night Walk to observe the space. The Brocade-Clad Witch ascended to a thousand meters high, looking down. Lin Moyu realized that he was on a peninsula. Beyond the peninsula was an endless continent, and he was on the edge of this continent. Beyond the continent was an endless ocean, the ocean being the Realm Sea, surging and roaring.

Suddenly, a gust of wind blew past the Brocade-Clad Witch, severing their connection, and the Brocade-Clad Witch died in the wind. Lin Moyu was stunned; the Brocade-Clad Witch was dead. "How did it die?" Lin Moyu could not understand. It was just a gust of wind, and the Brocade-Clad Witch died. Lin Moyu could not comprehend how it died; there was no sign of an attack. Opening the Eye of the Undead, Lin Moyu looked at the sky but saw nothing. Not seeing danger did not mean there was no danger; the death of the Brocade-Clad Witch was a fact, and it did not even have a chance to use the protection of the Great Dao. Such a sudden death made Lin Moyu even more cautious.

"My feeling was right; this space is extremely dangerous, and some dangers are unpredictable." "Fortunately, the Brocade-Clad Witch will not truly die and can be resurrected soon." "There are still nine days left; once I get through these nine days, I will leave immediately." He could not stay here for long; every minute longer could lead to unforeseen dangers. Even with his newly acquired talent, Lin Moyu was not sure he could survive. Under the Eye of the Undead, Lin Moyu saw the strange fish and crabs still fiercely fighting, their powerful souls clashing constantly. Suddenly, he saw several soul fires hidden on the other side of the battlefield. There were five soul fires in total, representing five people. Four were mid-level Celestial Sovereigns, and one was a high-level Celestial Sovereign.

"Someone else is hiding there like me." "It seems they have been here for a while, which means they might have already noticed my presence." Lin Moyu did not know who they were or if they had discovered him, but he knew he could not take the risk. Although he could leave, the continent behind him was also unsafe. Compared to facing unknown dangers, it was better to stay here.

At this moment, a strange fish was killed, and its body exploded before death, releasing a surge of origin energy, and an origin crystal fell out.
