Walker Of The Worlds - Chapter 1550

Lin Mu was unaware of the machinations that were happening due the series of actions that he had set off in the past.

Though he was still in luck, since the start of the investigation was botched from the very start. After all, they were trying to search for a target that didn’t exist in the first place.

This was also why his time of peace was still continuing.

After having made the base in the central area of the Blood Strewn plains, Lin Mu had spent his days searching for an Immortal Stone mine. Of course, finding one was easier said than done and he would have to scour the entire area.

He had divided it into different sections that he would search through every day. And while he didn’t find the Immortal Stone mines there, he still did find other resources like herbs and even Blood Essence crystal.

The number of Blood Essence crystals in the central area of the Blood Strewn Plains seemed to be quite high. But that was not all, as the accompanying baleful energies were also quite dangerous.

Their concentration was higher and could also harm Lin Mu.

Thankfully though, with the twins being there, Lin Mu had no issues. The twins actually got to have some extra meals and improved their Qi stores. Having reached the Second Tribulation stage of the Immortal realm, their ability to consume and store Qi had increased as well.

Lin Mu was worried that the rapid increase in their cultivation base might lead them to becoming a bit uncontrollable. But that didn’t happen. Instead, Lin Mu could see that their intelligence was growing along with it too, and they could already understand his words clearly. Though they were still unable to talk so far.

But the Saintess had told Lin Mu that this wasn’t an issue with their innate intelligence but rather them simply being young.

It made Lin Mu think about Little Shrubby.

After he had made a contract with Little Shrubby, the beast was able to communicate with a few words right from the start. But if he compare his age to the twins, he realized that there was a great difference.

When Little Shrubby had met Lin Mu in the form of a Brown Forest Shrubby cat, he was already ten or so years old.

Thus he had a head start compared to the twins.

The twins were still about three years old as of now, so they had time to go before they’d be able to speak normally.

Even Little Shrubby had some improvements with his own skills.

Lin Mu got to learn that the Saintess had actually been teaching Little Shrubby too. She was guiding him to use his fire better, by improving his control over the Fire Dao Traces.

It was interesting to Lin Mu and made him wonder if the Saintess had the ability to use fire Dao too.

So far he had seen her use the Wind Dao, the Air Dao and the Cloud Dao. Though all abilities she had shown so far were supportive ones and none of them were used offensively, so Lin Mu hadn’t seen her true strength.

Other than this, he also got to learn a bit more about the Saintess simply by observing her. Since they would have meals together now, he learned of her preference as well as dislikes.

The Saintess preferred savory food over bitter or salty, and she also liked sweets occasionally.

All this was something that Lin Mu could only grasp by seeing the faint reactions of the Saintess, as her face was always hidden under the veil.

Lin Mu was certainly pleased with all this though. Even if he wasn’t exactly living in a ‘beautiful’ location, the daily routine and peace that he had was calming for him. And just like that, two months passed by.

It was now the third month, and Lin Mu was in the middle of his practice with one of his main offensive skills.

~HUU~

Lin Mu took a deep breath and stood in the horse stance.

He brought his fists to his waist and held them there while gathering power in them.

~SHUA~

Immortal Qi gathered within his hand and started to spin, turning into a long stream.

Boulder Collapsing Fist: Second Form- Piercer!

Lin Mu punched out, sending forth an energy construct that was in the form of a needle. This was none other than the compressed Immortal Qi that had been transformed by the Boulder Collapsing Fist.

~ZING~

It traveled at a great speed, covering ten kilometers in the blink of an eye before meeting its target at the end.

~BOOM~

The hill in front of it was pierced clean before it exploded behind it.

“Hmm… the stability of the second form has certainly improved.” Lin Mu muttered to himself as he looked at his fist.

There was no damage on it, unlike before when he would cut his knuckles.

“Modulating the amount of Immortal Qi I used was indeed to key to preventing the damage. Though this also reduces the maximum power of the skill…” Lin Mu muttered.

He had spent the last few days in improving his own skills. After having reached the immortal realm, Lin Mu hadn’t worked with the Boulder Collapsing Fist as much and needed to get familiar with it again.

And now, he knew his new limits.

‘As long as I use less than five percent of my immortal Qi in the second form of the boulder collapsing fist, its fully stable. I can increase it up to 10% for better power, but then I’ll also sustain damage.’ Lin Mu thought to himself.

This was the conclusion he had come to after having tested the skill for the past two days.

But this was just one of the forms that Lin Mu had worked with. There were still the first and third forms that he hadn’t gotten started on yet.

And that was because of Immortal Essence.

‘I guess it is time to get used to it now…’ Lin Mu thought.
