Walker Of The Worlds

Chapter 795 - Shape Of The Dao Shell

What Xukong had told Lin Mu went against his very own knowledge that he had taught to Lin Mu.

”The solution to this problem cannot be found in this world. If you want to form a Dao Embryo related to the Dao of Space, you would have to find a higher world. This world cannot handle a Dao Embryo that relates to the three primordial elements.

This is one of the restrictions that are there on lower leveled worlds. Only when they promote to a higher leveled world, can they allow them. In fact, even the formation of the Dao Embryos of the four heavenly elements would be difficult for most cultivators in this world.” Xukong explained.

”Then… what do I do? Which Dao Embryo do I form and what will I do about the spatial Dao?” Lin Mu questioned.

He knew that the Shell Initiation stage was important since it would determine the shape of the Dao Shell. It was only in this stage that its shape could be modified. The outline that was formed was a default spherical one that everyone formed.

If a cultivator knew what he wanted to pursue later on in the future, they would modify the shape of the Outline in this stage. And only after the outline was modified would they start to solidify it and enter the Shell genesis stage.

Thus Lin Mu needed to know what Dao to pursue from now.

”I think your best bet would be to try for the Earth Dao for now. Later on when you leave this world you will be able to form more Dao Shells and Dao Embryos. Many people in lower worlds either donʼt know or think that this is possible too.

One doesnʼt need to restrict themselves to a single Dao Embryo. Most donʼt attempt this due to how much time this takes, but for you, this is easier. Itʼs not like you have a lack of time either.

Another thing that Iʼm doubtful of is the time needed for you to form an embryo related to the space Dao as well. The primordial elements are incredibly complex and thus forming a Dao embryo takes a long time.

That is time that you possibly donʼt have now since you need to get strong as quickly as possible.” Xukong explained in detail.

Lin Mu heard everything and pondered over everything thinking about it in detail. Even if Xukong had told him to do so, he needed to think about it more on his own as well. Making his own decisions was an important skill that he needed to know.

Lin Mu spent a few minutes like this and finally made his decision.

”Iʼll do as you suggested senior. I do have an affinity with the Earth Dao and can go ahead with it.” Lin Mu stated.

”Mmhmm. But you donʼt have to restrain yourself to just the Earth Dao either. If you feel like it, you can pursue others as well. You have the Fire Dao, the Sword Dao and even the Spear Dao that you can pursue.” Xukong replied.

”Oh? Yes… I do have that option too…” Lin Mu was now given more to think about.

Soon, ideas started to form in his mind and he knew what he wanted to do.

”Iʼve decided… I know what the shape of my Dao Shell would be!” Lin Mu said out loud.

”Good, now you can proceed whenever you want.” Xukong replied.

Lin Mu nodded his head and stood up.

He was not going to change the shape of it right now as he still needed to think more about the details of the Dao Shell. Cultivators spend decades to centuries in the Shell initiation stage of the Dao Shell realm so as to find the shape that would be perfect for them.

It wouldnʼt be hurtful if Lin Mu decided to take it a bit slower. Plus the idea that he had in his mind was different than the norm and he needed to do a few more experiments before he was able to attempt that.

Lin Mu went to the spirit portrait of Kong Hutao and saw him staring at him with wide eyes.

”You reached the Dao Shell realm?” Kong Hutao asked.

”I did indeed.” Lin Mu acknowledge.

”Good, good!” Kong Hutao was very happy to hear this.

The stronger the inheritor was the better the chances of his wishes being fulfilled.

”Though… was the spirit Qi lacking? Why are you only at the Shell initiation stage?” Kong Hutao asked after seeing a bit further.

”Ah that… I need time to think of what my Dao Shell will be. As for the spirit Qi, no it was not lacking. It is simply that I absorbed it all into my Dantian for use in the future.” Lin Mu answered.

Hearing this, the eyes of the portrait went wide. But a few seconds later he started to laugh.

”AHAHAHAH! EXCELLENT! If such an outstanding person is the heir, then I have less to worry about.” Kong Hutao said, not even asking how Lin Mu accomplished something like that.

Lin Mu rubbed his head in slight awkwardness and didnʼt know what to say. Kong Hutao stopped on his own in a bit as well and looked at Lin Mu.

”Now that you are done with binding and taking your first reward, it is time for the others.” Kong Hutao said.

Lin Muʼs expression turned serious, and he nodded his head.

”You have already seen the vault and the items contained in it. They are all yours to use as you deem fit. The entire minor plane is also yours of course and you can control its formations as well.” Kong Hutao stated.

”Thank you senior.” Lin Mu said feeling grateful.

A few seconds later, another thought came to his mind.

”What about the beasts? Are they mine too?” Lin Mu questioned.

”Of course they are… well… if they agree to that. They arenʼt really under the control of the formations and have their own free will to act. Though the beasts shouldnʼt be able to trouble you much now..” Kong Hutao answered much to Lin Muʼs joy.
