Chapter 1601 Demonstrating Formation Skills

Lin Mu got to work on the formation array while the Saintess observed it all.

She could see everything that Lin Mu was doing, from the smallest of rune additions he made, all the way to the unraveling of different layers. Nothing escaped her eyes and the more she saw the more satisfied she was.

It took Lin Mu over three hours to completely unravel the formation array, but it felt like mere minutes to him. He was so engrossed in it that, he couldnʼt even tell when the time was passing.

To him, working on a formation array was like working on a puzzle.

Once one got into the flow, they would forget about everything else and fully focus on it. The Saintess had noticed this and knew that Lin Mu had an innate talent for formations, as not everyone could replicate this kind of natural focus.

~HUMM~

The formation array broke down and opened up the passage for Lin Mu to enter.

”And, itʼs done!” Lin Mu said, finishing his work.

”You did well.” The Saintess couldnʼt help but praise.

”It was nothing.” Lin Mu said. ”The real prize is waiting inside.” He gestured to the depths.

They continued onwards and finally saw the glimmering Immortal stone clusters.

”Whoa…” Lin Mu was stunned seeing it. ”This one is even bigger than the first Immortal Stone mine!” he exclaimed.

The two of them had appeared from a cave exit that was located on top of the mine. It gave them a wide view of the mine, and unlike the first one this one was relatively flat. There were no extra outcroppings or mixed tunnels, allowing one to see everything at once.

ʼI guess this one formed differently than the previous one.ʼ Lin Mu thought to himself.

The entire floor and walls of this mine were made out of Immortal Stones and the same could be said for the roof. In fact, the place they were peeking from was also made from Immortal stones, though someone seems to have reinforced it with more materials.

”Theyʼve certainly worked here for a while.” Lin Mu said after noticing the mining marks.

”Thereʼs also more chambers here.” The Saintess said.

”There are?” Lin Mu raised a brow.

He spread his immortal sense, and soon found the chambers that were located at the base of the mine. They seemed to be intended for storage and there were even a few mining tools kept there.

”Interesting… Looks like thatʼs where the prince worked.” Lin Mu said after discovering.

”Prince?” The Saintess raised a brow upon hearing that. ”What prince?”

”Umm… itʼs the person from whom I obtained the map to the immortal stone mines.” Lin Mu replied with slight hesitation. ”It was the eleventh prince of the Holy Topaz Dynasty.” He finally answered.

”You killed an imperial prince?” The Saintess was surprised once more.

”Yes I did.” Lin Mu admitted but did not give any excuses for it.

Killing the prince of an empire while being within their territory was a gusty move. She would have thought that Lin Mu had done that accidentally, but seeing the confidence he had, it seemed to be fully intentional.

ʼIt doesnʼt seem like heʼs scared about the repercussions from the imperial family either.ʼ The Saintess thought.

She wasnʼt particularly concerned about this either, as what Lin Mu did was still up to him. She would not interfere in it, unless it was threatening the Yin Yang Twin snakes. But seeing Lin Mu act like this was still intriguing for her.

”I see… At least the gains seem to be worth it.” The Saintess said nonchalantly.

Seeing that the Saintess was not offended or anything, Lin Mu felt relieved.

ʼThough it isnʼt something that she would normally be concerned about either. After all, why would she be concerned about some prince from a world that isnʼt even hers?ʼ Lin Mu justified to himself.

He realized that he had merely be over thinking.

”You should get to mining. Looks like itʼll take a while seeing its size.” The Saintess suggested.

”Ah yes! Iʼll start right away.” Lin Mu said before assessing the area. ”Little Shrubby, weʼll do the same as before. You go around and gather the materials and resources here, while I go mine the Immortal Stones.”

”Okay~” Little Shrubby was excited for it too.

He had already seen just how much the immortal Qi in the Sleepscape had increased. He could only imagine how much it will be, once the second source vein was added to it as well. With this in mind, Little Shrubby was highly motivated.

~SHUA~

Several prosthetic hands appeared around him, as Little Shrubby got to work. His immortal sense spread as well, and he started looking for various materials that might be mixed along with the Immortal Stones.

But Lin Mu was not done there. Next he withdrew two boxes.

~SHUA~ SHUA~

The boxes caught the Saintessʼs attention and she instantly recognized what they were.

”You made Sword nurturing Boxes?” The Saintess asked.

”Yes. I attempted to make these for my Immortal Swords.” Lin Mu replied.

~CLACK~ CLACK~

The two sword boxes opened automatically as the swords responded to Lin Muʼs call.

~SHING~ SHING~

It was clear that the two blades knew exactly why Lin Mu had called them.

”You two know what to do, letʼs get to work.” Lin Mu spoke to the Immortal Swords.

~HUMM~

Afternoon Pine and Ocean Raker quickly flew around, slicking and cutting into the immortal stones. The Saintess watched the action that would be considered absurd by most cultivators.

ʼGetting his immortal swords to mine, and even making a Sword Nurturing box for them…ʼ the Saintess thought before checking the boxes closely. ʼOh? He actually used Peak Grade Immortal Stone for its main body? Really opulent.ʼ She couldnʼt help but think.

She checked the rest of the box, finding it to be of a decent quality.

”While it isnʼt up to the standard of its materials, it can easily be improved later on with no obstacles.” The Saintess did her assessment.
