Walker Of The Worlds

With all the Immortal Stones removed from the mine, it finally started to collapse.

~CRACK~CRACK~CRACK~

Chunks fell from the roof, while cracks spread all over the walls.

“Just on time too… At least this’ll help erase any other traces of us being here as well as that there was an Immortal Stone mine here before.” Lin Mu said before calling for Little Shrubby.

He sent the beast into the Sleepscape before directly flying up through the roof using Phase.

The crumbling roof was nothing to him, and by the time he reached the surface, the entire mine had been destroyed and filled in with the earth above it. The mine was after all located over two kilometers deep and had a lot of weight on top of it.

This also helped hide it, since looking at it from the top, it merely looked like the ground had naturally sunk. If one passed by here, they wouldn’t think that there was anything in the ground before.

They would simply think that the topography of the land was uneven.

It didn’t stick out from the rest of the area of the Blood Strewn Plains.

Done with this, Lin Mu decided to return to the temporary base.

He would have gone directly to the next Immortal Stone mine, but it was in another direction and he would have to pass by the base anyways. Not to mention, he wanted to sort through the materials and Immortal Stones.

Then there was the most important task of them all, the one that had made him look for an Immortal Stone mine in the first place: Implanting it in his Sleepscape!

“Let’s head back to the base Little Shrubby.” Lin Mu called the beast back out.

“Okay!” Little Shrubby was excited too as he wished to see the changes in the Sleepscape too.

Lin Mu had told him what he wished to do, and since Little Shrubby now stayed in the Sleepscape most of the time, he was excited to have a better place to cultivate.

~WHOOSH~

The two turned into a red blur and ran nonstop until they finally arrived at the base.

Lin Mu did not stop for a moment and directly locked the place up before sending Little Shrubby into the Sleepscape and sleeping.

~huu~

Taking a deep breath, Lin Mu closed his eyes and arrived in front of the Immortal Apple tree a few seconds later.

“The Immortal Essence in the air has become stable for sure.” Lin Mu muttered sensing the energy around him.

It felt rather pleasant to him, and it made him comfortable to be here. He reckoned that even if he just stayed here, his body might start to adapt to the Immortal Essence automatically after a while.

Though practicing the Three Apertures Invoking Technique would speed it up by a lot.

“Are you going to add it now?” Little Shrubby asked excitedly.

“Yeah, let me just find the right spot.” Lin Mu said before spreading his Immortal Sense.

He wished for the Source Vein to be implanted in a spot where it would be convenient for him to built an array. Lin Mu wished for this array to power all his buildings and anything else he might need in the future.

Thus it was important that he chose a good spot.

It didn’t take Lin Mu to find one though as the Sleepscape had expanded enough now.

“This should be good enough.” Lin Mu flew to an area that was in the middle of the Immortal Apple Tree and the Violet Mystic Life Tree.

Little Shrubby followed behind him too, not wanting to miss the event.

“Let’s see now…” Lin Mu focused on the Source Vein that was floating in the ring and withdrew it.

~SHUA~

“Shit, it’s leaking already. I need to be quick.” Lin Mu slowly lowered the Source Vein to the ground while willing for the Sleepscape to accept it. ‘Come on… absorb it!’

~SHUA~

His command was accepted rather quickly as the ground automatically sank along with the Source vein. In fact, the Sleepscape seemed to be rather eager to swallow up the Source Vein too.

In just ten seconds, the entire Source Vein was swallowed up by the ground leaving no trace that there was something as priceless as that here before.

“Is that it?” Little Shrubby asked while tilting his head.

The last time Lin Mu had planted the Source vein of the Spirit stone mine, Little Shrubby wasn’t here. Thus he didn’t know the series of events that had happened before.

~WHOOSH~

And he wasn’t the only one that was interested in this either. As a black and white ribbon flew towards them as well.

~HISS~ HISS~

Xiao Yin and Xiao Yang wrapped around Lin Mu’s shoulders, looking around for something.

“You two came for it too, huh… guess you felt the immortal Qi too.” Lin Mu said while rubbing their heads.

~TREMBLE~

It didn’t take long for the process to start as the entire Sleepscape shook!

“It begins…” Lin Mu found the process to be a lot stronger than last time.

~RUMBLE~

Even the sky of the Sleepscape shook this time, as Immortal Qi started to rise up from the earth. It mixed into the air and filled the entire space of the Sleepscape.

~RUSTLE~RUSTLE~RUSTLE~

All the plants within the Sleepscape started to sway in joy, and greedily absorbed the Immortal Qi.

The Immortal Apple tree showed the biggest reaction, as it quite literally started to grow new branches and leaves.

~RUSTLE~RUSTLE~RUSTLE~

In less than five minutes, it had more than doubled its size!

Having increased its size, it didn’t stop though as next it started to grow tens upon tens of buds on it. These buds then bloomed and turned into flowers that emitted a sweet fragrance, changing the atmosphere of the Sleepscape.

The other plants didn’t lag behind the Immortal Apple tree either.

The Wood Spirit Tulip too grew more, and two more flower heads popped out from its sides. It bobbed its new flower heads from side to side, dancing in joy while releasing a strong fragrance from its petals.

The Purple Sickle amaranth that had reached a obstacle in the past finally started to breakthrough.

~SHUA~

A wave of energy spread out from it, showing that it had directly broken through its limits. Before this, the Purple Sickle Amaranth was roughly equivalent to the Dao Treading realm, but now it had directly risen to the Immortal Ascension realm!

And it didn’t seem like it was going to stop here either.

~HUALA~

After the breakthrough, it sucked in the Immortal Qi growing its body more. Thousands of new leaves grew on its branches, while new stems sprouted as well. The potential boost that the Immortal Essence had provided it was now bursting into fruition as its original limits were being surpassed.

The Purple Sickle Amaranth started to expand and from a single plant, it turned into multiple. From its roots, more Purple Sickle Amaranth plants popped up.

They looked like tender saplings at first, but soon grew into young plants. And a few more minutes later, they had matured into ten meter tall fully grown plants!

Their sickle shaped leaves swayed and spun, as if cutting the air and absorbing more immortal Qi from it.

It continued this for a few minutes after which it had reached another breakthrough!

~SHUA~

A wave of energy spread from the Purple Sickle Amaranth as it directly reached the Immortal realm!

But this wave of energy wasn’t just any immortal Qi, it was actually Wood Elemental Immortal Qi!

“It can finally generate Wood Elemental Immortal Qi now.” Lin Mu was pleased to see this.

The other plants, as well as Little Shrubby, will now have a steady source of Wood Immortal Qi to use. Not to mention, Lin Mu would now be able to build Herbal pavilions here that would be good for preserving the herbs he had obtained.

While he wouldn’t be able to grow new herbs, as that was still not allowed by the laws of the Sleepscape, it wouldn’t be an issue to preserve herbs that were already harvested. This would allow Lin Mu to free up some of the Herb boxes he had bought before.

Most of them were filled with Immortal herbs as they were being used to preserve their quality.

“The plants have grown well.” Lin Mu nodded his head before turning in a certain direction. “But the Violet Mystic Life Tree has basically shown no reaction.” He said before flying towards the said tree.

Upon arriving at the giant tree, Lin Mu saw that it while it was absorbing the Immortal Qi too, it didn’t show any growth.

“Perhaps it has already grown more than enough before. It should take longer for it to grow once more.” Lin Mu reckoned.
