Chapter 284 - Rewarding Jing Wei And Duan Ke
"How did the tear appear, though? Isn’t the courtyard quite strong, what was it that could cause damage like this?" Lin Mu questioned.
"Oh, it was one of the materials needed for the ring. More specifically, the one that contained spatial attribute qi. The one that we got previously while useful, was not really compatible and the technique I used wasn’t perfect either.Thus,s as a result of that a great amount of it escaped my control and tore a hole in the barrier." Jing Wei answered.
Lin Mu was a bit surprised, as he had not expected for it to be something like that.
"Did you know this Senior?" Lin Mu asked in his mind.
"Yes, I did. I recognized the damage caused by it, as it is how spatial qi does it. You should learn from this and know how dangerous it can be if you aren’t able to control it one day or perhaps lose control." Xukong explained.
"I understand, Senior." Lin Mu answered.
"Also, I have a reward for the man. I believe one is in order." Xukong added.
Lin Mu’s expression lit up as he instantly agreed with it.
"Yes Senior, that would be good. The have helped me a lot, and even now repairing this ring was quite an effort." Lin Mu replied. "But what kind of rewards did you have in mind?" He asked.
Then the two of them saw an illusion. For a moment there, they could see a massive silhouette of something behind Lin Mu. They realized that the room had somehow disappeared, and they were in a space where there were only two things, darkness, and ten golden eyes.
The gaze of the golden eyes shook their minds and they felt inferior in front of it. They felt as if they were mere ants. But then something else happened. They felt something entering their minds, it was similar to the presence in front of them but was much more milder in nature.
Then finally as if a bolt of lightning had struck, information started pouring into their brains. They couldn’t do much other than just hold on and wish that it ended quickly. While the process wasn’t painful, it was still quite uncomfortable.
Duan Ke and Jing Wei felt as if a few hours had passed by before the information finally stopped and they were able to open their eyes. They then realized that in reality, not even a minute had passed while they went through all that.
"What-" Duan Ke was about to ask when she paused.
The information that was added to her brain finally kicked in and she was able to understand what it meant. The same happened to Jing Wei, but his reaction was of absolute shock.
"Marvelous... absolutely marvelous! This- this knowledge..." Jing Wei uttered with sheer awe.
"Thousands of years of my clan’s experience cannot even compare to one percent of this," Jing Wei proclaimed. "No! That’s not it... Thousands of years of experience combined of each and every spirit tool refiner cannot compare to this!"
Lin Mu just patiently watched the two’s reactions. Senior Xukong had already told him to expect something like this and had warned him that this will happen. What Xukong had just done was use the ward he had placed on Lin Mu along with Lin Mu’s spirit sense and transfer information to the pair of grandfather and granddaughter duo.
Originally he only wanted to give it to Jing Wei, but then Lin Mu told him that he should give something to Duan Ke as well. What Xukong had given Jing Wei was a bare smidgen of knowledge of refining from the immortal realm. He had already seen his talent and knew that the old man was even better than some refiners of the immortal realm.
He reckoned that this would be a good reward and would help him a lot more in the future. As for Duan Ke, he had merely given her a few tips about cultivation. These were rather common ones in the immortal realm but would be priceless for someone from a low leveled world like this.L1tLagoon witnessed the first publication of this chapter on Ñøv€l--B1n.
