Walker Of The Worlds

2380  Going To A Far Region

While Lin Mu was conversing with Xukong about the Heaven Silencing Seal, the others were still concerned about the matter at hand.

They couldn't understand just how the time had been frozen like that.

"Do you think the frozen time was only affecting us, or perhaps more?" Crown Princess Shang asked. "If it was just us, then things might be bad, since others would have still been active." She added.

"It wasn't just us." Lin Mu spoke up hearing that. "It was the entire Immortal Realm." He stated.

"The entire immortal realm?!" Crown Prince Feng Shun and the others were shocked once more.

"Looks like the seal is a lot more powerful than we thought." Ziran said, furrowing his brows.

"It is… I've decided to observe it for a while before using it." Lin Mu stated.

"That's good. Better to err on the side of Caution." Monk Hushu agreed with the decision.

"Now then, what do we do?" Qiao De asked. "We could go further north. And see if we can't find another camp or Chimera plant." Daoist Chu suggested. "That part of the area hasn't been explored anyway and the Chimera Radar has been showing an increased number of Chimeric Beasts there too." He added.

"Very well, we shall do that then." Crown Prince Feng Shun agreed. The number of Chimeric Beasts had been steadily decreasing since the Black Fin Island members started hunting at a great speed than before. As such Lin Mu and the group had to search longer and often times, they might not even see a single Chimeric Beast for days.

As such, the Chimera Radar picking up on a higher number of them was a good sign as it might mean that there was a Chimera Plant there that was producing more Chimeric Beasts. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

While Lin Mu and the group had mostly fulfilled their goals of obtaining the items they wished for, that didn't mean that they couldn't keep on buying other things from the list. After all, most things in there were highly valuable and as such having more wouldn't hurt.

Not to mention, they still needed to find a way out of the Bridge Plane which they were having a hard time with.

So far they only had two ways of doing that. One was to follow the original task and simply survive until the Trial Arrays deemed them to have survived long enough. The second was to figure out just how Yao Changying and the Black Fin Island members were coming into the Bridge Plane.

The latter was something they might be able to do as long as they came across more Chimeric Plants as they were being used to nurture Yin Nascent Soul Maggots.

Another thing was that Lin Mu and the group had still not encountered Yao Changying. Despite having known about her for almost two years and fighting hundreds of Black Fin Island members, there was no sign of the woman.

They did know that she was here, as some of the communication jade slip had confirmed it. But she seemed to be hiding for some reason and wouldn't appear in front of them.

Lin Mu first thought that she was simply biding her time, and wished to tire them out with the Black Fin Island members and the Yin Nascent Soul Maggots. But that thought changed when she didn't appear even after multiple ambushes.

This made them wonder just how often was she going out and returning.

Though Ziran also suggested that Yao Changying might be busy with something entirely else. Crown Princess Shang also agreed with this, thinking that she had an alternative goal other than the offering halls contents as well as the Yin Nascent Soul Maggots.

This had made Lin Mu analyze the items that they were buying from the Offering Halls, but he couldn't full determine what was the exact reason since they were quite varied. There was no particular pattern to them, other than the fact that around forty percent of the items were meant to improve the cultivation base of dark elemental cultivators.

It did make them think that Yao Changying might just be thinking of improving her own cultivation base along with her people, but it didn't seem the most accurate, either.

Since there was no other way to find out, all Lin Mu and the others could do was to learn it bit by bit.

But what they didn't know that they were going to get an answer very soon…

~WHOOSH~

"There it is!" Lin Mu said as he stood atop Little Shrubby's back. "That's a Chimera Plant's work for sure." He pointed at a giant death Qi cloud that was floating in the distance.

It was at least a hundred kilometer away, but its size allowed them to spot it from all the way here.

"Daoist Chu was correct. The increase in the number of Chimeric Beasts on the Chimera Radar was due to the Chimera Plant." Crown Prince Feng Shun praised.

"I just did a guess." Daoist Chu said. "Though I don't know how many more things we'll encounter this time." He added.

"Indeed." Lady Kang nodded.

A short while later, the group got closer, allowing them a better view of the site.

"This is enough, Little Shrubby." Lin Mu asked the beast to stop and the group got off.

They stood at least a kilometer in the sky and observed the area below. "Looks like there's no Yin Nascent Soul Maggots here this time." Qiao De noticed it to be only filled with Chimeric Beasts.

"Hmm… guess that just makes our work easier then." Crown Princess Shang said as she glanced at the swarm of Chimeric Beasts that were filling the area, making it seem like a black sea.

~SHUA~

Lin Mu took out Wonder Seeker and nocked a Mortal Reminder Arrow into it, aiming towards the Chimera Plant.

"Everyone ready?" Lin Mu asked, glancing at them. "Always." Crown Prince Feng Shun said and the others nodded.

~TWANG~

With the confirmation, Lin Mu released the arrow, letting it pierce the trunk of the Chimera Plant.

~BOOM~
