Chapter 581 - Breaking The Wall
Jing Luo didn’t know Lin Mu had stopped when the method was working.
"I’ll try something else... this is taking too long." Lin Mu said. ’And takes a lot of spirit Qi too.’ He internally thought.
The amount of spirit Qi being used to vibrate was about half of what was needed to activate meld once. Lin Mu reckoned that he may as well use meld as it would be faster and he would be able to recover it quickly with the spirit Qi from the mine.
"You may wanna step back for this." Lin Mu stated.
Jing Luo didn’t know what Lin Mu was about to do, but listened to him nevertheless. Once Jing Luo was a sufficient distance away, Lin Mu extended his right hand in front of him, before whispering something.
"Meld..."
No sound or movement could be felt, but Jing Luo felt a massive amount of spatial fluctuation appearing in the area. He wondered what was happening and got worried that the minor plane may be collapsing on its own perhaps.
Just when he was about to voice out his concerns, he stopped. He suddenly saw the wall made of Earthen Depths Obsidian move.
"H-how...?" Jing Luo muttered.nôvel binz was the first platform to present this chapter.
Lin Mu slightly flicked his hand and moved the ’chunks’ around. Meld could separate the spatial fragment into multiple sections which Lin Mu called chunks. The more chunks there were the harder it was for Lin Mu to control.
Still, now that Lin Mu had reached the Nascent soul realm, the drain on his spirit Qi was less than before. It was much more tolerable such that he did not mind using it more often. Plus his recovery would also be much faster, increasing the number of times it could be used further.
"A bubble? What do you mean senior?" Lin Mu questioned.
"When this mountain must have first formed, there would have been magma and lava everywhere. And of course, where there is lava there would be other materials and minerals there too. Certain such materials would release gases when they are heated.
And if some of these materials had sunken below the magma, they would get heated and release the gases. This gas would rise up in the form of a bubble and reach the surface of the Lava. But of course, unlike water, lava is much thicker.
Sometimes these bubbles would not pop and become stuck there. Eventually, time would pass and the lava would start to get cooled before getting solidified. When that happens, this bubble would get stuck like that too and would become dome shaped like this.
Of course, the bubbles are not as big as this, which leads me to think whatever kind of gas was trapped in it, it must have been different." Xukong explained.
Upon hearing this nil mu got an idea of what it must have been.
"Spirit Qi... the mine must have formed back when it all happened and the gas must have been nothing but spirit Qi itself." Lin Mu hypothesized.
"Probably yes," Xukong replied.
While Lin Mu and Xukong were talking about this in their minds, Jing Luo was watching the surroundings carefully. More particularity at the small glints on the walls of the tunnel.
"Three fall agate, Eight spot Metal, Shutter blight crystal... so many materials... so many treasures..." Jing Luo muttered one by one.
All of the things embedded in the walls were precious materials that could be used for countless things from the refinement of weapons, alchemical pills to the creation of formations. These materials were quite rare in the Great Zhou continent and one would find a great demand for them but no supply.
Lin Mu heard Jing Luo’s words and looked at the walls too, finding everything to be exactly as he had just said.
"If this is place is just a fragment of a minor plane carved from the Sacred land of the Ripple Mist sect, then how many more resources would be present in the entire sacred lands? And what of the other sacred lands of the top sects?" Lin Mu couldn’t help but wonder.
