1387 Leaving The Deep Sapphire Island
Having obtained three immortal weapons, Lin Mu was very pleased. He had only tested out one of them and he was already looking forwards to the abilities of the others.
“Afternoon Pine is a qi skill type sword and Ocean Raker is a pure refinement type sword but I don’t know what kind of a bow the Wonder Seeker is.” Lin Mu muttered to himself.
From the memories of Wonder Seeker, Lin Mu knew it could be used with both physical arrows as well as arrows condensed from pure qi. But it didn’t seem like there were any direct qi skills associated with it.
As far as he was concerned the general operation of Wonder Seeker was the same as that of any normal bow.
“I’ll store them away for now,” Lin Mu waved his hand and the three immortal weapons were sent inside the ring.
Lin Mu took a quick peek inside the ring just to ensure that everything was fine before turning to Lanbao and Elder Niji.
“Thank you for the immortal weapons, they will be a great help to me.” Lin Mu said with gratitude.
“You just need to stay safe Noble Lin Mu, that’s all we ask of you.” Elder Niji replied.
“Mmhmm, come back to us later. You still haven’t told me many stories.” Lanbao said with a smile.
“I will, but its best I don’t wait any longer.” Lin Mu said before stepping into the the portal and returning to the city.
Once they were in the city, Lanbao took them to the storage cove where Lin Mu took plenty of Immortal stones, spirit stones, spirit herbs and a lot more materials from it. Elder Niji was very generous and wanted him to take three times as much as he had taken, but Lin Mu denied.
Once they had gotten all this, they made their way to the lake where they had entered from.
“You should take this, Noble Lin Mu.” Elder Niji handed Lin Mu a palm sized clamshell.
“What’s this?” Lin Mu questioned.
“It will help you control water to a certain extent. At the very least you will be able to rest on a boat if you are tired flying and still continue on your journey.” Elder Niji answered.
“Oh, thank you.” Lin Mu took the clamshell which was a mid grade immortal tool.
In fact an immortal tool with properties like this would be very valuable in the Rust Sky world. It could easily sell for the cost of a high or even a peak grade immortal tool.
“Also take this,” Lanbao flipped her palm and a small scale appeared in it. “This scale contains the aura of the Ancestral beast as well as my own imprint. No aquatic beast will dare to come close to you as long as you have it.” She explained.
“Whoa! This will be a great help!” Lin Mu knew just how necessary this was.
It would be saving him a lot of time as he wouldn’t have to avoid the beasts.
“Though be careful, it will not last forever.” Lanbao warned.
“How long will it last?” Lin Mu asked, hoping that it was at least a few days.
“Mum… Should be about… Four years.” Lanbao replied.
“Four years?” Lin Mu raised his brows.
“Yes, is that too less?” Lanbao asked in a concerned tone.
“No, no! It’s plenty.” Lin Mu responded. “This should last me a long time and might even come in handy as a life saving treasure.”
“That’s good. Hopefully that time never comes though.” Lanbao said with hope.
Not wanting to tarry on any more, Lin Mu turned to the lake, intending to go up.
“Xiao Yin, Xiao Yang! Come on, We’re leaving!” Lin Mu called out for the twins.
~WHOOSH~
In the next second, a white and black ribbon appeared from the distance and wrapped around Lin Mu’s arms.
~hiss~
“There we go, just stay in my sleeves it’ll be a long journey.” Lin Mu said to the twins who got cozy inside his sleeves.
He was just about to enter the tube, but then he got stumped.
“So… How do we exactly go out? Do I just fly up?” Lin Mu asked, actually feeling confused.
Getting down was as simple as jumping down, but the distance was quite long.
“Oh, going back up is easy. I’ll open the way for you.” Lanbao said as she tapped her finger on the air.
~RIPPLE~
The lake in front of them rippled before a seat formed in it.
“Go sit, it’ll take you to the top.” Lanbao directed.
Lin Mu did as was told and the seat started to move.
~WHOOSH~
Soon it sped up and the lake disappeared into a small dot. Lin Mu rose though the long tube and could only see a blur around him.
“This is certainly a lot faster than sliding down here.” Lin Mu couldn’t even tell how fast this was but then a minute later he saw the clouds on top. “Already?”
The seat continued to rise and then curved to let him off at the edge of the lake.
“That’s convenient…” Lin Mu leaped off the seat and rose up into the sky.
The island below him was silent and barely any beast could be heard.
“It’s really calm… or is it due to the scale?” Lin Mu wondered as he looked at the fingernail sized scale.
“Keep it safe, that little scale is probably worth a few cities alone.” Xukong spoke.
“Yeah I should.” Lin Mu nodded his head and stored it away into the ring.
The ring was the safest place it could be and he could withdraw it at any time when needed. Lin Mu then made his way to the coast and took out a compass.
“Now then, Kunzi said that I can head to the Huiqing Empire and take a teleportation array from there. It’s supposed to be east of here…” Lin Mu turned to the direction and started flying.
Having reached the immortal realm and regaining the ability to fly, Lin Mu was feeling free.
