Chapter 2206 Heading To The West To Meet The Monk
Feng Baxing had not been acting in the most ideal manner, thus the Crown Prince chose to punish him. He did so while making use of someone else, that ended up being Lin Mu.
But the Crown Prince had no idea that his Third brother would be too foolish for his own good and end up committing a sin that would jeopardize the entire Imperial Family if not the entire empire. It would have been a situation where even the Emperor would not hesitate in punishing the third Prince, but that was never needed.
For there were greater powers that did it for them.
'Someone of this personality would be quite good as an adviser for the Imperial Family… and me.' Crown Prince Feng Shun thought to himself, as a few ideas appeared in his mind. While there was a long time till he would become the Emperor, it didn't mean that he couldn't prepare his own group of people till then. People that would not only support him but also help him become a ruler that could exceed the achievements of his father and predecessor.
Crown Prince Feng Shun was highly tempted to recruit Lin Mu. But he also knew of the reality.
'Someone of his caliber won't be restricted to a mere Immortal world… Perhaps a different approach might be better for it.' Crown Prince Feng Shun thought of what could be done. 'We have plenty of time anyways. I'll have to talk with father once we're out.' He decided.
No one knew the thoughts that Crown Prince Feng Shun was having, but there was one other person who had been having similar thoughts. Lady Kang was also having certain desires pertaining to Lin Mu, but she wasn't as clear as Crown Prince Feng Shun. She hadn't made up her mind about what should be done and was still in the pondering phase.
But whatever it might be, there was a high chance it would still be in the favor of Lin Mu.
~SHAU~SHUA~SHUA~
While they were having these thoughts, Lin Mu was busy marking the various locations on the map.
"There we go, that should be about all of them." Lin Mu said putting his hand down.
The people came out of their thoughts and watched the map.
The water bodies that Min Ju and a few others had seen with the Toad Plant Chimeric beasts were spread out in the eastern and north eastern area. While the three headed, strong Chimeric beast that Qiao De had encountered was far to the south.
It was located just outside the five hundred kilometer radius, and Qiao De had turned back as soon as he had avoided the attack by the Chimeric beast. The rest of the Chimeric beast swarms were moving around due to the boundaries shifting, but according to the last reported locations, Lin Mu designated each of them to be in the North, South, East and West directions.
"I suppose we can designate these swarms as the Northern, Southern, Eastern and Western Chimeric beast swarms." Ziran stated.
"That works." No one disagreed.
"Now that we have all this done, perhaps it is time we go to meet up Monk Hushu." Lin Mu suggested. "He hasn't contacted us yet, so he's probably still busy in purifying the baleful energies. We should go give him a hand." He added.
"Yeah, we should go there." Crown Prince Feng Shun agreed.
"To the West then." Ziran said and the group began its move.
The structure that Monk Hushu had discovered was located about three hundred kilometers in the western direction. It was a distance that the group wouldn't take long to cover if they flew at their maximum speed, but they also had to deal with a few Chimeric Beasts that stood in their paths.
"So there are other Chimeric beasts that aren't in swarms." Lin Mu said seeing the strays that were moving around.
The largest group for these strays was just ten to twenty, while there were many singular Chimeric beasts that were moving around. "I think they might have gotten separated somehow when the Death Qi boundary shifted." Ziran suggested.
"Is there any Death Qi boundary here though?" Lin Mu wondered. "Something that could be keeping them from reuniting." He looked around.
"There sure is." Lady Kang said, pointing to a faint line in the distance.
It was like a black mirage that twisted and turned in the distance. It was roughly thirty kilometers away, and when they got closer, Lin Mu finally got a proper look at it.
"Huh… This is much thicker than the one we saw at the start." Lin Mu said seeing the Death Qi Boundary that was roughly three meters wide.
"I've seen a couple more that were even thicker than this." Crown Prince Feng Shun spoke. "Upto ten meters thick." He informed.
"That thick?" Lin Mu raised his brows.
"I've seen a couple more that were even thicker than this." Crown Prince Feng Shun spoke. "Upto ten meters thick." He informed.
"That thick?" Lin Mu raised his brows.
It was easy for him to assume that the thickness of the boundary was dependent on something.
"What of the shifting boundaries? Were any of them this thick?" Lin Mu asked next.
"No, all of them seemed to be very thin. Perhaps not even an inch thick." Crown Princess Shang stated.
"I see… Perhaps when the thickness of the boundary is directly related to the time of it shifting." Lin Mu stroked his chin.
"That does seem likely." Crown Prince Feng Shun nodded. "But the boundaries certainly don't shift at an equal times." Qiao De stated. "We might just need to observe them more. I don't think we'll be unable to figure it out." Lin Mu said as they got closer.
Soon he stood merely a meter away from the boundary.
His immortal sense was trying to probe it, but found itself getting damaged in the process.
"It still is as bad as before." Lin Mu said, repairing his damaged Immortal sense. "We can just fly over it." Crown Prince Feng Shun said. "The boundary's effect is only limited to a hundred meter height." He informed.
