Walker Of The Worlds

Chapter 922: Smooth Sailing

At the Long Cloud sect, everything went well and nothing unexpected happened like the time when they first took the oath a month ago.

Lin Mu couldn't help but feel relieved that there was no one among the higher ups of the sects here that had been controlled by Gu Yao or was looking to harm the alliance or the world.

The mystery about why Junior Elder Lao Ming was stuck by punishment lightning was still unknown today. The sect was still investigating but couldn't find anything that seemed to be problematic on his end.

To them, junior elder Lao Ming was doing is duties perfectly and there were no lapses in his judgment either.

This was what put Lin Mu and the patriarchs in a dilemma. They didn't know if the oath was just this severe that it killed the elder just because he had thought wrong for a second or if it was something else.

"No… the oath won't kill someone for a simple lapse in thinking. Everyone has bad thoughts from time to time and unless one acts on it, it won't be imprinted on their karma. They won't be sowing karma, just be imagining things.

If it was like that, then the heavens would have never been in peace and chaos would have eliminated all life." Xukong clarified.

"Then what could it be, senior? Was Lao Ming just thinking of betraying the sect for gains on his own?" Lin Mu couldn't help but questioned.

"That is something no one can answer for now. Well… there is the option to use divination for that, but its close to impossible for there to be anyone with a divination technique as strong as that in this world." Xukong answered.

"Do you know any divination techniques, senior?" Lin Mu asked, feeling curious.

"No, I don't. That is not exactly something I'm comfortable with, and neither do I have an affinity with it." Xukong replied in a straight tone.

"I see… guess we'll just have to trust that the oath and world's will was correct." Lin Mu said.

Lin Mu opened his eyes to look at the discussion that was currently ongoing in front of him. The three patriarchs and several elders were talking about how things should go and how to proceed from here. 

You Yi was telling them about the plans that Lin Mu and Jing Luo had formed earlier.

"So this 'teleportation gate'… you will be placing them in our sects?" Patriarch Shandian questioned.

"Well, your people can do it too if they are proficient in formations. I have made it so that they are mostly per-made and only some assembly is needed for the most part." Jing Luo answered.

"Hmm… you can talk with the fomentation elders and see to that." Patriarch Shandian spoke while the elders he was talking about nodded in response.

"It shall be the same for my sect as well. All formation elders of the Light Harmony sect are to meet up with him and discuss the setup of the Teleportation Gate." Patriarch Mingliang ordered.

"YES PATRIARCH!" The elders replied.

Seeing that everything was going smoothly, Lin Mu was pleased.

"Speaking of this teleportation gate, I heard that it is linked with a different plane, what exactly is it?" Patriarch Shandian asked.

"The name of the plane is Kong plane, and it was left behind as the dying legacy of the Kong Clan." Lin Mu replied.

"The Kong clan, huh…" Shandian repeated.

"Haven't heard that name many times before." Patriarch Mingliang spoke.

"So the people of the western continent are still helping us thousands of years after their death…" Patriarch Shandian muttered in a tone of melancholy.

"Even if the people of the Western Continent are all gone, at least there is still something left to remember them by; their sacrifice." Patriarch Mingliang said.

"That's not exactly true. There are still remnants of the western continent clans in the empire." Lin Mu clarified.

"Really? Who?" Patriarch Mingliang asked.

"The Mu Clan, the Fenlong clan and the Fen clan of the Fenlong kingdom, of course. The Mu clan are the descendants of the Mulong clan, one of the top clans of the western continent too." Lin Mu replied, surprising.

"THE MULONG CLAN?" One of the elders of the Black Dune Sect exclaimed, making everyone look at him.

"What's the matter? Is there something special about them?" An elder standing next to them asked.

"Of course! Many don't know but the Mulong clan was the most proficient in making puppets. These puppets were of many types and were strong enough to contend even with Dao Treading realm experts.

The most surprising part is that the one controlling the puppets didn't even need to be at that cultivation base to do that. For example, someone at the Nascent soul realm could control a puppet that had the strength of the Dao Shell realm." The Elder explained.

~Gasp~

A lot of the other elders couldn't help but take a breath of air after hearing this. They knew the implications of this and just how much it could change the tide of battle.

"If they really are from the Mulong clan, then they need to be nurtured well." Patriarch Mingliang spoke.

"They still have their inheritance from the ancestors thus they are safe in that part. But some support would still be good for them." Lin Mu spoke.

"Very well. We shall send a few disciples to assist them in what they need." Patriarch Mingliang stated.

"As it should be." You Yi nodded his head.

"Oh! If you're sending them there. Can you send some Formation masters there too?" Jing Luo interjected.

"Why?" The Patriarchs asked.

"Well, we have yet to set up a teleportation gate there. thus if someone sets it up there, it will save us time." Jing Luo answered.

Hearing this, Lin Mu felt like it was a great idea.

"We should do this for other places of interest too. It will save us a great bit of time.." Lin Mu said, calculating just how many months of effort could be saved that way.
