Chapter 1598 The Saintess Intrigue

The Saintess felt intrigued as to what it was that Lin Mu wanted to do.

'Now that I think of it he feels changed.' The Saintess suddenly thought.

She gazed deeply at Lin Mu, finding several differences.

'He doesn't have the same burning desire?' The Saintess quickly discovered.

It was a change that others wouldn't be able to tell normally, but for the Saintess it was only a matter of glance.

"What do you want to do?" The Saintess asked. "Also what else have you done in this time? You seem changed." She added.

It was the question that Lin Mu knew was going to be asked, and was prepared for it.

"I found the object of my desire and cleared it." Lin Mu said simply.

"I see that makes sense." The Saintess nodded her head.

"Is it that obvious?" Lin Mu asked in doubt.

"To others? Perhaps not. To me? As clear as the day." The Saintess replied. "I've seen tens of billions of people over millennial. You get perceptive to them after a certain point." She revealed.

"Is that so I guess I have another thing to look forward to." Lin Mu replied. "Though for now, I should just focus on the tasks at hand."

"So what is it that you want to do instead of the tournament?" The Saintess asked again.

"I have the location of an Immortal Stone mine." Lin Mu answered.

"And immortal stone mine? A new one?" She asked in doubt.

"Yes it was only recently discovered." Lin Mu nodded his head.

"And you wish to mine there? Won't there be others, if it has been discovered?" The Saintess asked next.

"There won't be others. Those that knew about it are all dead." Lin Mu said, and the Saintess quickly picked up on the hint.

"I see. It is indeed rare to find an untouched Immortal Stone mine." The Saintess couldn't find fault with Lin Mu for it.

After all, most cultivators would do the same if they were given the chance.

"But yeah, if you wish to mine there it does make sense that it'll take you a few months." The Saintess said after thinking for a bit.

"Umm, depending on its size. It shouldn't take me more than a month." Lin Mu responded. "The one I cleaned out earlier didn't even take two weeks." He added.

Hearing this, the Saintess raised her brows.

"What do you mean, cleaned one out earlier?" The Saintess had an idea, but doubted if that was possible.

To this, Lin Mu didn't answer directly. But instead showed it, as it was better than giving a long explanation.

~THUD~

In the next second, a ten meter tall chunk of High Grade immortal Stone appeared in front of Lin Mu.

Seeing it, the Saintess confirmed her guess. She was truly stunned though, as it was highly unlikely that Lin Mu had found not one but two Immortal Stone mines in this brief time.

"Looks like you've had a good time in my absence." The Saintess said with a hint of teasing.

"It was certainly fortunate." Lin Mu replied. "But I can get more now."

"If it is a mine then it is indeed preferable to the tournament for now." The Saintess nodded.

While the tournament was important, the Saintess reckoned Lin Mu didn't really need their help since he had Xukong backing him. Most people went there looking for the inheritance of the four guardian beasts after all.

"Yes. Though I don't know if we'll be able to head to the Huiqing Empire in that time. Clearing out the mine, returning to Middle Fort city and then getting a teleportation array booking to the Dao Wind Empire." Lin Mu estimated.

"I don't think you'll have to worry about the Teleportation array. Due to the Tournament, they are going to increase the frequency. They will now activate the array every week." The Saintess informed.

"That'll definitely make things easier." Lin Mu was happy with this.

While the tournament wasn't his top priority, it would still do him well to get some more information, and perhaps even a reward. If not that, getting to battle other experts of the Rust Sky World would still be a good experience.

For some people, the battles were more important than the rewards too.

After all, there were quite literally thousands of people who had been preparing for the tournament for hundreds of years in seclusion.

Thus whenever a tournament happened, several hidden experts would come out to test their mettle.

"We should hurry then." Lin Mu said and woke up Little Shrubby.

The beast had fallen asleep after the meal and hadn't even stirred when the Saintess appeared.

"We going somewhere?" Little Shrubby asked while yawning.

"Time to go to the second mine." Lin Mu replied.

"Ah, okay~" Little Shrubby said while scratching his ears.

He did a long stretch before growing to a slightly bigger form.

"Will you accompany us, Saintess?" Lin Mu asked. "Or will you do your own work?"

"I'll stay this time." The Saintess replied.

She wished to see just how Lin Mu was going to clear out an entire mine in that time. But more than this, the Saintess was interested in the changes in Lin Mu. She couldn't put her finger on it, but she felt like he had become stronger somehow.

'Even if his cultivation base hasn't grown, his 'presence' surely has.' The Saintess thought to herself.

Lin Mu got ready for the departure and gathered his things from the temporary base. He was going to leave this place for good now after all. After he obtained the Source vein of the second mine, Lin Mu would have no need to stay in the Desolate Blood Battlefield.

His goal of obtaining body cultivation resources was also satisfied, as he had not only obtained the Violet Mystic Life tree, but also several other herbs. Killing the prince had contributed to that too, as the man had tons of the herbs and pills in his storage.
