Chapter 865: Decisive Retreat

Seeing the entire series of events, Lin Mu was stunned. 

"How's that little drop so powerful? Is it a poison?" Lin Mu couldn't help but say.

"That's the Violet Myrtle Drop, one of the more… unorthodox techniques of the Rainbow pill sect. Its said that it can melt flesh and metal like it was wax and takes years to refine." Elder Weimin explained.

Lin Mu had not heard of a technique like this and was intrigued by it. It was a very powerful one, as could be seen and he was certainly interested in it. Not only for his own but also because there was always a chance that he might have to go against it someday.

The best option was to know the enemy and their skills so that Lin Mu would be able to overcome them.

Back at the ruins, after the beasts were melted away, the man looked at the Centennial sword sect elder.

"Elder Kijian's Ember Dawn sword is certainly as impressive as I've heard." Elder Ren praised.

"Hmm… I could say likewise for your Violets Myrtle Drop too, Elder Ren. Though… was this the right time to use it? Wasn't this a waste of it?" Elder Kijian replied.

"Haha, I know what you mean. But no… I don't have the same restrictions as others." Elder Ren said before he stretched out the hand that held the cup.

He made a scooping gesture with the cup and the liquid that had spread all around started to gather.

~SHUA~

It rushed towards a single point and condensed back into a single violet colored drop. It then rose up into the sky and went back into the same position it was at in the cup.

"Oh? You already reached that stage?" Elder Kijian was surprised.

"It's just some tricks. You don't have to worry about it, elder Kijian." Elder Ren chuckled before putting away the cup.

Elder Kijian narrowed his eyes at the hypocrisy, but decided it was not worth talking to the man any longer. Instead of that, he observed the area around them and felt more auras appearing from the depths.

"Are the other elders done yet?" Elder Kijian questioned with a frown.

"They should be soon. The beasts that appeared around the camp are already being taken care of. The disciples will have retreated soon enough." Elder Ren replied.

"Mmm… we will have more to fight. I doubt it will be enough for just the two of us." Elder Kijian said frankly.

Hearing this, Elder Ren raised his brows. His spirit sense was slightly inferior to that of Elder Kijian but even then he could let it reach the depths of the ruins. When it finally reached the fifth floor that was now fully revealed, his expression changed.

"Looks like this is not an inheritance ground anymore. The destruction within it was way beyond what we imagined. There is no distinction between floors now. Plus, the beasts make it impossible to proceed, anyway." Elder Ren spoke.

"We will take out the stronger beasts and let the disciples handle the rest. That will have to suffice for their training this time around." Elder Kijian replied.

"The Centennial sword sect seems to have benefited this time. These kinds of situations are just perfect for your style of training." Elder Ren said as he withdrew a pair of fans from his spatial storage bracelet.

The fans were folded and were about a meter long in lengths when closed. There were fine runes carved on it as well and a strong spirit Qi fluctuation could be felt coming from it.

Even Lin Mu could sense it from here.

"A High grade spirit tool? No… it's almost at the peak grade." Lin Mu assessed.

"It can reach peak grade as long as a few more improvements are made to it." Jing Luo added.

Seeing that there was an elder of the Rainbow pill sect with such a spirit tool, Lin Mu was sure that the current situation was a bit more different from what he thought.

'With so many strong people, these beasts might really be manageable.' Lin Mu thought to himself.

But this also made him understand that he wouldn't need to deal with the beasts on his own.

At this point, he made up his mind.

"We shall leave now!" Lin Mu stated.

"Are all disciples ready?" Elder Weimin asked.

"Yes Elders!" The disciples replied.

"GOOD! We shall leave upon the next order." Elder Weimin declared.

Jing Luo looked at Lin Mu and asked, "you sure about this?" 

"Yes, with all the sects here, I don't think we need to involve ourselves. Plus, this will give us an advantage. While the sects control the situation here, we can be done with our work at the Noon Grass sect as well." Lin Mu replied before looking at a certain old woman.

"Plus… we have her to get more information from as well." Lin Mu pointed towards Ku Waowen, that was tied to a pole and was being carried by two disciples.

Elder Weimin had used a rope spirit tool that could restrain the power of a cultivator as well as their movement ability on her. This way, there was next to no chance of her escaping.

Ku Waowen was still asleep, as Elder Weimin could not get any answers from here while she was unconscious. He did want to wake her up to get some answers, but could not do so due to the rapid change in the situation.

"We will be able to get Elder Liqiang to the sect to recover faster this way as well." Elder Weimin added.

"Very well." Lin Mu said before turning to look at the disciple.

"We shall head to the noon grass sect and won't stop till we reach it. Everyone is to watch their backs and their companions' backs. Make sure that both of you are safe and in a good condition." Lin Mu gave out an ordered.

"YES SENIOR!" The disciples replied in unison.

With this done, everyone left for the Noon Grass sect with Elder Weimin leading them at the front this time.
