 **Chapter 2859: Inheritance is Also a Form of Wealth**

Leaving the space where the Third Ancestor resided, Lin Moyu was still contemplating the last words spoken by the Third Ancestor.

At that time, the Third Ancestor's tone was very serious, a strong warning.

"The sect master of the God-Slaying Sect told me that the secret vault contains wealth left by those at the Great Dao realm."

"But the Third Ancestor told me not to open them until I reach the Great Dao realm."

"Secret vaults, them."

Lin Moyu keenly grasped the difference in their words, which was the key point.

"Neither of them would lie. The secret vault must be a secret vault, but not just one."

"The five jade stones are keys to the secret vault, and there may be more than one vault they can open."

"In the Third Ancestor's words, regardless of which vault, they are extremely dangerous. If opened recklessly, not only would I die, but many others would too."

"This implies that the danger in the secret vaults might be related to the extraterrestrial gods."

"The sect master also mentioned that the secret vault contains much wealth left by those at the Great Dao realm."

"Wealth can take many forms, and inheritance is certainly one of them."

Lin Moyu gradually sorted out his thoughts. The Third Ancestor's warning not only served as a caution but also had life-saving implications, allowing him to consider many possibilities.

Perhaps even the Third Ancestor didn't realize how useful his words would be.

Originally, Lin Moyu planned to open the secret vaults after reaching the Dao Sovereign Seventh Realm, but now it seemed he should wait even longer.

Returning to his courtyard, Lin Moyu began reviewing the information he purchased from Lu Lian.

He bought information about secret vaults. There are many secret vaults in this world, and the Lu Feng Merchant Association couldn't possibly explore every one.

If they did, they would undoubtedly become the world's enemy.

Many secret vaults are not located in the Southern Continent or the Eastern Continent but in the Northern and Western Continents.

For now, Lin Moyu wasn't considering the vaults in those two places.

He wasn't interested in the Southern Continent either; Lin Moyu was currently looking at the secret vaults in the Eastern Continent.

There are currently eight known secret vaults in the Eastern Continent, scattered across various locations.

Three of these vaults are near the demon race's territory, with one in a closed state and the other two opening occasionally.

Another vault is near the battlefield between the dragon and insect races.

This one is open year-round, but few go there.

If unlucky, encountering the dragon or insect races would be dangerous.

The dragon race is very arrogant, looking down on everyone.

In the human territory, there are only two vaults, with one not in a closed state.

The last two vaults are currently open, but they are very far away.

They don't belong to any race; rather, they are the territory of spirit beasts.

Anyone entering risks being attacked by spirit beasts.

Lin Moyu frowned, "Could it be the Eastern Spirit Empire?"

The map he had didn't mark the Eastern Spirit Empire.

Probably only a few people knew the real location of the Eastern Spirit Empire.

The Eastern Continent is so vast, Lin Moyu couldn't guess.

After much consideration, Lin Moyu decided to first visit the nearest secret vault.

The vault is called the Thunder Vault, about thirty million kilometers from the merchant city. At the speed of an origin shuttle, it would take about ten days of full-speed flight.

Lin Moyu thought of Xiahou Yuan's flying boat, incredibly fast; thirty million kilometers might take just a day.

But that was just wishful thinking; even if given such a flying boat, he couldn't operate it.

Putting aside unrealistic thoughts, Lin Moyu refocused and began condensing Dao patterns.

He had already condensed one Dao pattern and gained some experience.

Even if interrupted midway, it wouldn't matter; it wouldn't affect him.

With more practice, he could even use it in combat.

Lu Fengyao said she would come in two days. If not for waiting for her, Lin Moyu could have left immediately.

Sure enough, two days later, Lu Fengyao and Lu Shudao arrived together.

Lu Fengyao was the happiest about Lu Shudao's safe return.

Although the Third Ancestor was their ancestor, he didn't seem to care much about Lu Shudao.

Instead, the Third Ancestor was very concerned about Lu Fengyao.

It made sense; the Lu family was large, and losing a Dao Sovereign Seventh Realm like Lu Shudao wouldn't cause much of a stir.

At most, it would be the loss of an ancestor, which might be painful but not crippling.

Lu Fengyao was different; she was the chosen successor of the Third Ancestor, who invested heavily in her, making her life the most important.

Lin Moyu welcomed them in, and Lu Fengyao solemnly said, "Thank you, Lin Xiaodi, for helping me bring my father back."

Lin Moyu said, "Didn't you already thank me? No need to be so formal, Sister Fengyao."

Lu Fengyao laughed, "Regardless, I must thank you."

Serious for less than three seconds, Lu Fengyao reverted to her usual self.

Lin Moyu asked, "Sister Fengyao, you asked me to wait two days. Is there something you need?"

Lu Fengyao nodded, "Yes, yesterday the Hurricane Warship arrived from the demon race, and there's something on it I thought you might want, so I brought it for you."

Lu Fengyao, since becoming a Dao Sovereign, had many privileges within the Lu Feng Merchant Association.

Her authority sometimes surpassed even the mid-level Dao Sovereign Fourth Realm members of the Lu family.

She had the right to know what was on the Hurricane Warship.

Lin Moyu was curious, what could the demon race have?

Lu Fengyao smiled mysteriously and handed something directly to Lin Moyu, "See if you want it."

What she handed over was a bone, silver in color, with golden lines flowing on its surface.

Sensing it with his spiritual sense, Lin Moyu felt the bone's intense spirituality and strong origin power.

Lin Moyu's heart skipped a beat; Lu Fengyao had given him a spiritual material, and a high-grade one at that.

Holding the spiritual material, Lin Moyu said, "Thank you, Sister Fengyao."

Lu Fengyao giggled, "I knew you'd want it."

Lin Moyu nodded, "I do need it. How much does it cost, Sister Fengyao?"

Lu Fengyao said, "It's a gift, not for sale."

Lin Moyu said, "That doesn't seem right; spiritual materials are valuable."

Lu Fengyao said, "No matter how valuable, is it worth more than my father's life?"

Lu Shudao chuckled, "Lin Xiaoyou, just accept it. It's just a piece of spiritual material."

Lu Fengyao said, "Exactly, I have that much authority."

Lin Moyu didn't stand on ceremony and accepted the spiritual material.

Lu Fengyao said, "I have a few more things you might want, but this time they'll cost you!"

Lin Moyu laughed, "Alright, name your price, Sister Fengyao!"

Lu Fengyao knew what Lin Moyu needed, and next, she took out a remnant of a fourth-level origin spirit vein, valuable even as a remnant.

Lu Fengyao named her price, and Lin Moyu didn't haggle.

Having just received so much, he couldn't haggle.

Of course, Lu Fengyao's price was reasonable, at market value.

Then Lu Fengyao took out another fourth-level origin spirit vein, and Lin Moyu bought it without hesitation.

Spiritual materials, origin spirit veins, and remnants of origin spirit veins were all things Lin Moyu needed.

These items were rare and not easily found.

Lin Moyu was very grateful that Lu Fengyao remembered him.

...

The Third Ancestor, in his space, witnessed the transaction and sighed, "So generous!"
