86: Is there really something wrong with the system?

As Lin Mu was pondering, the Dragon King, who was standing nearby, suddenly stepped forward.

He glanced at the skeleton indifferently and then said, "Young Master Lin, there's no need to wonder. This old turtle has indeed been dead for over a hundred years."

Lin Mu asked, somewhat surprised, "Doesn't the Dragon King want to know why I killed it?"

The Dragon King said casually, "Everyone has a day to die. It just depends on whether his death has value."

"If Turtle Prime Minister knew that his death could save the entire Sea Clan, then he would have died a worthy death."

Lin Mu smiled noncommittally and did not delve deeper into the topic.

He continued to ask, "Then why did this old turtle die a hundred years ago in such a short period of time?"

The Dragon King smiled mysteriously, "The reason lies in that passage."

"Passage?" Lin Mu repeated.

The Dragon King then said, "Indeed. I presume Young Master Lin has also noticed the extraordinary spiritual power within that passage."

"Cultivating there for one day is equivalent to cultivating for a hundred years outside."

"Of course, there are pros and cons. One day spent inside that passage means a hundred years have passed outside."

After hearing this, Lin Mu couldn't help but think, "This Primal God Power is truly miraculous. But if I absorb Primal God Power, will my body also age faster?"

Lin Mu immediately dismissed this thought.

Because up until now, he hadn't noticed any abnormalities in his body.

He said with some emotion, "A hundred years have passed in the blink of an eye. I wonder how Lao Mo is doing now?"

Yun Feiyang stepped forward upon hearing this and said, "Sect Master, there's no need to worry. With Elder Mo's abilities, no one can do anything to him."

Lin Mu wasn't worried about Lao Mo's safety.

It was just that a hundred years had passed, and if Lao Mo emerged from seclusion and didn't hear from him, he might anxiously search everywhere.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but urge the Dragon King, "Dragon King, please quickly take me to get the heavenly dao stone. It will save me from disturbing you any longer."

The Dragon King also saw Lin Mu's urgency, and he nodded, "Alright, Young Master Lin, please follow me closely."

With that, he flashed and swam towards an even deeper trench.

As the group went deeper into the trench, the light grew dimmer and dimmer.

It wasn't until they had dived tens of thousands of meters that they reached the bottom of the trench.

There was no light at all here.

Seeing this, Lin Mu opened his Eye of the Primal God, and suddenly the entire seabed became as bright as day.

They saw the three people were standing on a huge formation disk.

In the middle of the formation disk was a small altar.

Lin Mu glanced at it and found that the entire altar seemed somewhat familiar.

Lin Mu walked into the altar and observed it carefully for a while before realizing that this altar was similar to the one he had discovered in the Tiger Clan.

This altar only had two stone pillars.

Embedded in the grooves of the stone pillars were two divine stones.

It was precisely the heavenly dao stone that Lin Mu had been searching for with all his heart.

Lin Mu walked to the stone pillar and reached out, wanting to pry out the heavenly dao stone.

However, Lin Mu tried several times, but the heavenly dao stone remained motionless.

Yun Feiyang, seeing this, walked towards the other stone pillar.

He condensed Primal God Power in his hand and grabbed at the heavenly dao stone.

The heavenly dao stone only swayed continuously in the groove, showing no signs of being pulled out.

Seeing that Yun Feiyang's use of Primal God Power seemed to be effective.

Lin Mu also mobilized Primal God Power and slapped his palm against the stone pillar.

The stone pillar was shattered by Lin Mu's palm.

The heavenly dao stone embedded in the stone pillar also detached from it and flew towards Lin Mu.

Lin Mu put away the heavenly dao stone and walked towards the other stone pillar.

He repeated the process and removed the other heavenly dao stone.

Lin Mu had just put away the second heavenly dao stone.

At this moment, the Dragon King, who was standing not far away, suddenly burst into laughter.

Lin Mu turned and looked at him mockingly.

It wasn't until the Dragon King stopped laughing after a long time that Lin Mu finally asked, "Did the Dragon King think of something happy?"

At this moment, the spiritual power on the Dragon King's body surged wildly, and his dark hair actually floated in the seawater with the spiritual power.

His eyes became exceptionally sharp; he no longer had the appearance of a benevolent old man.

Hearing Lin Mu's question, he said in a cold tone, "You're right, I did think of something very happy."

Lin Mu said, "Oh? What could be so happy? Tell me about it and let me be happy too."

The Dragon King heard this and suddenly burst into laughter again, "It's a happy occasion for me, but for you, I'm afraid it will be a nightmare."

He walked towards Lin Mu step by step, each step leaving a deep footprint on the formation.

When he walked up to Lin Mu.

He stretched out his hand and said to Lin Mu, "Hand over all your heavenly dao stones, and I can leave you with an intact corpse."

His tone was filled with unquestionable authority.

Lin Mu scoffed disdainfully, "With just you, I'm afraid you don't have the qualifications."

The Dragon King did not get angry at Lin Mu's words.

He said calmly, "I know you have something to rely on, but I know all your trump cards clearly."

As if seeing the confused expression on Lin Mu's face, the Dragon King continued.

"Everything that has happened since you subdued the Three-Headed Dog, I have seen with my own eyes."

Lin Mu was startled by these words, and he couldn't help but ask, "So, you deliberately arranged for the Three-Headed Dog to be by my side?"

The Dragon King smiled, "Indeed, including the seven-colored divine lotus in the Qilian Mountain Range, it was all a scheme I set up."

Lin Mu asked again, "When did you start setting up this scheme? Not many people seem to know me."

The Dragon King seemed to be in a good mood, and he answered readily, "Ever since you rang the heavenly dao bell, I started to notice you."

"Others might not know what ringing the heavenly dao bell means, but I know very well."

"Therefore, I have a deep understanding of your strength."

Lin Mu chuckled lightly and said, "Perhaps what you saw isn't necessarily true."

The Dragon King heard this and said, "Perhaps you have trump cards I don't know about, but I believe they are very limited."

"After all, the person who gave you the trump cards also has limited cultivation."

Lin Mu, who was always calm and composed, could no longer maintain his composure after hearing the Dragon King's words.

Most of everything he had was rewarded by the system.

Only he and Lao Mo knew about this matter.

Lao Mo would naturally not betray him.

So, where did the Dragon King learn about it?

Moreover, the Dragon King actually said that the system's cultivation was limited. Could the system also be a cultivator?

Lin Mu immediately felt a strong sense of crisis.

He had previously suspected the system's motives, and he hadn't expected there to be such a huge conspiracy here.

He tried to calm his emotions before speaking calmly, "So, you know him?"

Lin Mu decided to try and find out some truths from the Dragon King.

To his surprise, the Dragon King seemed to have seen through Lin Mu's thoughts.

A look of pity suddenly appeared on his cold face, "You don't need to try and trick me. The more you know, the more despair you will feel."

"Now, obediently hand over the heavenly dao stone. Although I won't let you leave, at least I can ensure you an intact corpse."

"It's better than when the time comes..."

At this point, the Dragon King suddenly paused and said no more.
