Chapter 623 - Escape From The Ripple Mist Sect
"Did you manage to break the barrier? I saw that you had manged to put a crack in it before." Jing Luo asked.
Lin Mu, Jing Luo and Little Shrubby had just come out of the remnants of the mist and were looking at the barrier at the border of the sect. The place where Lin Mu had used the Boulder Collapsing fist was now looking normal, and it did not look like it had ever been attacked at all.
"Looks like it managed to recover on its own. We should have expected it with a sect protecting formation array like this." Lin Mu said.
"But… we have another solution now…" Lin Mu said as he pulled out the Spatial storage treasures from the First elder's body before pulling out a token.
Lin Mu had put the body of the first elder in his ring after killing him and had thought that he would check his palatial storage treasures later. But didn't expect for the opportunity to come this quickly.
"Aha! Perfect! With that token, we can bypass all barriers now!" Jing Luo said with joy.
Lin Mu nodded and the three of the headed towards the barrier, while Lin Mu held the token in his hand.
~Huala~
The moment they got within a two meter radius of the barrier, it opened up a entrance for them to pass through.
"There we go," Lin Mu said as they very easily went through the barrier.
~Sigh~
"If we had this token from the start, it would have been so much easier." Lin Mu muttered.
"That's true… but in exchange, at least we managed to weaken the Ripple Mist sect a bit. If this was a normal battle, I doubt we would have been able to kill these many elders as the Dao Shell realm experts of the sect would have interfered." Jing Luo replied.
"Hmm… that's quite likely. Though why did they not come right now?" Lin Mu wondered.
"From what I've seen and know, the Ripple Mist sect is a bit cautious. They recalled the disciples to the main area of the sect so that they would be safe from us. As they don't know what kind of means we have, they wanted to protect the sects core.
Thus, with their strongest experts there, they would not have to fear much. But I'm sure they would have never expected for all of their elders to die like this, haha!" Jing Luo chuckled.
"We shouldn't delay this and wait anymore, then. Let's take advantage of this," Lin Mu said as he sat on the back of Little Shrubby and strapped into the harness.
"We follow the same plan?" Jing Luo asked for confirmation.
"Yes, we first get as far as possible and then we regroup." Lin Mu said as he patted the back of little Shrubby.
Jing Luo nodded his head and took out a pair of boots from his spatial storage treasure and put them on. He then took out another belt and put that on his waist as well. He then skipped a few times before flying away at a sonic speed.
"Whoa!" Lin Mu exclaimed upon seeing it.
Lin Mu knew for sure that this was not Jing Luo's real speed. The man was not this fast even when he had used that blood essence ignition technique. But right now, his speed was nearly the same as that of Little Shrubby's speed.
Since Lin Mu saw the man put on the new spirit tools, which were the boots and the belt, he reckoned they were the reason behind his increased speed.
"That is some impressive work…" Lin Mu muttered.
But just as he was about to leave, he sensed some really strong spirit Qi fluctuations coming from afar.
"WHO DARES!!!!!" The sound of a man thundered from afar.
From the strength of the spirit Qi flotations, Lin Mu knew that this must be a Dao Shell realm cultivator, most likely to be a grand elder of the Ripple Mist sect.
"The couldn't hold back anymore. Seems like it…" Lin Mu said as he told Little Shrubby to start running.
~thud~
Little Shrubby's running speed was faster than his flying speed, and thus he mostly ran on the ground. His paws dug into the ground with force as he shot ahead at great speed. He pushed a few more items with his paws and accelerated again.
"YOU DARE RUN AFTER KILLING OUR ELDERS! NEVER!!" The voice thundered again.
This time, Lin Mu could see the outline of a man approaching from the main area of the sect. He was coming at a great speed and was sitting on what looked like a large Oar. The oar was also emitting strong spirit Qi fluctuation and Lin Mu understood that it was also a High grade spirit tool.
To Lin Mu now, High grade spirit tools looked to be common since he had been with someone who could literally make them as he wanted to. Lin Mu had gotten to learn quite a few things from Jing Luo and if he wanted to, he could actually make his own spirit tools and spirit weapons now.
Albeit they would only be of the Low grade level, or the mid grade if Lin Mu was a bit lucky. Still… all that he lacked was experience and practice in making them. He already had the knowledge in the form of the jade slip that Jing Luo gave him and also the various books that he had collected from many places now.
All combined, Lin Mu should be able to learn to make spirit tools and weapons on his own after a while. But he didn't know if he would really do it right now as there were a lot of things that he needed to do before that.
Lin Mu had gained a lot of materials on the various occupations of cultivators such as the formation creation, Alchemical pill refinement, some beast taming and now Spirit tool/spirit weapon forging.
