Chapter 1586 A Toxic Surprise
Lin Mu observed the Violet Mystic Life Tree for a while more before confirming that there were indeed no changes in it.
"Looks like I'll have to give it more time." Lin Mu said before looking at the twins. "You two can cultivate here now too. And so can you Little Shrubby."
~HISS~ HISS~
The twins nodded their heads in understanding while breathing in the Immortal Qi. Little Shrubby was similar but was also absorbing the Wood Elemental Immortal Qi as well.
The concentration of Immortal Qi in the Sleepscape was now the same as what was in the rest of the Rust Sky world. It hadn't reached a high level, but that was to be expected as this was just a single Source Vein.
Plus, there was also the entire Violet Mystic Life tree that was absorbing it too. This cut down the concentration of Immortal Qi by quite a lot. But Lin Mu didn't mind this. He knew that this was a long term investment and would only bring him benefits.
At the very least, the immortal Qi concentration matched that of the real world, and the beasts would be able to cultivate with no issues.
'Once I add the second Immortal Source Vein too, it should increase even more.' Lin Mu thought to himself. "Perhaps I might even be able to add an Immortal Qi condensing array for me to cultivate in." He muttered.
Lin Mu certainly had the designs for such arrays and could now make them easily with the many Immortal stones he had.
But that wasn't all that he had. Lin Mu and Little Shrubby had gathered other materials than just Immortal stones that would come in handy too. Then there was the large fortune Lin Mu had obtained from the eleventh Prince, Huangyu s.h.i.+yi too.
"Let's get to sorting them. I'll also make some plans for them after that." Lin Mu said to Little Shrubby.
"Mmhmm, do you want me to take them out right now?" Little Shrubby asked.
"No, let's head to the formation pavilion first." Lin Mu replied.
With that said, the two of them went to the building while the twins stayed wrapped on Lin Mu's shoulders.
For the twins, life was mostly carefree and involved eating, cultivating and sleeping. After all, their bloodline and potential was so strong that even if they did nothing, they would still end up growing strong.
To them, growing strong was just a question of time.
"Place them here, Little Shrubby." Lin Mu gestured to a large work table that was inscribed with several runes.
On the surface it looked simple, but those versed in formations would know what this table was. It was a special table that was used by formation masters to work on. Not only did it suppress any stray Qi fluctuations, the table itself functioned as a formation core that could help one control several supportive formations in the pavilion.
These supportive formations ranged from Qi channeling formations to add extra Qi when making a talisman or formation, defensive formations to protect oneself from unstable formations, and restrictive formations to contain the volatile energies of a formation until the work was done.
The table was thus perfect for handling sensitive and unstable materials.
"Alright." Little Shrubby took out all the items that he had gathered in the Immortal Stone mine.please visit ????????o???.?o?.
One by one, he put them on the table allowing Lin Mu to take a proper look at them.
There were colorful gemstones, strange crystal shards, a few herbs as well as plenty of metal ores. By the time Little Shrubby was done taking them all out, the table already had a couple of small piles on it.
The two piles were of ores and gemstones. These two materials were abundant in the Immortal Stone mine and there were many different kinds mixed in it. Other than these, the rest of the materials were only a handful in number.
"These all will be useful as supplementary materials." Lin Mu a.s.sessed the gemstones.
Most of the gemstones were used as formation nodes in different immortal tools or could also be used in arrays directly. Due to their crystalline structures, they were good at holding runes and could also give a stable flow of energy.
Of course, each gemstone had different properties and could be used accordingly.
As for the ores, there were far too many of them and their uses were mostly in the manufacture of Immortal tools and weapons. Lin Mu took note of a few good ones that might be useful soon.
'I can definitely used them to make the Sword nurturing boxes.' Lin Mu noted.
Next were the herbs that Little Shrubby had found. There were only five such herbs, out of which there was one that greatly interested Lin Mu.
"This mushroom where have I seen it before." Lin Mu felt like the mushroom was rather important but couldn't recall where he had seen or read about it.
It was white and had thick red liquid oozing out of it.
"That's the Immortal's Bleeding Tooth mushroom." Xukong spoke up.
"Oh?" hearing it Lin Mu finally recalled. "Wait, it's THE IMMORTAL's BLEEDING TOOTH MUSHROOM!?" Lin Mu immediately stepped back.
"Get back Little Shrubby, that's highly toxic!" Lin Mu warned.
The beast furrowed its brows, but still heeded its master's words.
"Is it really toxic? I don't feel it though." Little Shrubby had come into contact with it a several times while extracting it after all.
"You're really fine?" Lin Mu checked Little Shrubby's body just in case, finding it to be totally normal.
"You're fine too, aren't you master?" Little Shrubby said after a bit.
"I am" Lin Mu realized that even he was feeling nothing. 'Isn't the Immortal's Bleeding Tooth Mushroom supposed to be able to affect even Immortal realm experts?'
Lin Mu had heard about this mushroom in the pa.s.sing while he was in the Middle Fort city. A few people were talking about a commission for the mushroom.
While it was toxic, it also meant that it was useful. It could be used as a weapon after all.
