Walker Of The Worlds Chapter 478 - The Dark Soil Pill Is Ready

Chapter 478 - The Dark Soil Pill Is Ready

Now that he had ordered the pill, Lin Mu just returned back to the library. There wasn't much left for him to do other than to wait. He couldn't progress his cultivation and he couldn't practice the mortal strengthen scripture either.

"Hmm… may as well try to further my five treasures realm cultivation, even if it is slow it'll be fine. A drop will eventually turn into a pond and then into a sea." Lin Mu muttered to himself.

Currently, his spleen had reached the fifty percent mark due to the large number of earth elemental herbs and pills he had consumed. This was not the intendant method of cultivation for the five treasures realm, but this was all he had.

Originally the five treasures realm could be cultivated with vital essence but because Lin Mu lacked the specific technique he was using the inefficient method of using spirit Qi to convert into the elemental spirit Qi and then use that to refine the related organ.

This was a long winded and inefficient process, but this was all he could do for now.

'Perhaps I can get some ideas from the lost immortal's memoirs….' Lin Mu thought and started reading them.

Back in the ring, Xukong was observing Lin Mu while thinking about some things.

"He's going to need a proper body cultivation technique soon, if he wants to progress it. But finding it in this world seems close to impossible. ~Sigh~ I should have paid more attention and collected techniques in the past." Xukong muttered to himself.

He then looked back at the altar in the center of the ring and thought a bit more.

'Will you be interfering this time? I wonder…' Xukong thought.

***

The ten days pa.s.sed in the blink of an eye and Lin Mu just continued his routine in that time.

In that time he had been able to find some clues to the five treasures realm from the lost immortal's memoirs but none of them were useful in his situation. Still, he noted them down in his mind thinking that he may have a chance at using them in the future.

Another thing that he discovered in this item was about the alchemist Bilao. He had thought that he had heard or seen his name somewhere before, and it was actually in the records of the mercenary union.

Alchemist Bilao was over two hundred years old currently and thus quite a lot of information about him was available. He was actually a big shot in the Tri cauldron peony sect and had won a few accolades in the alchemist compet.i.tion that were held by the many sects.

His accomplishments in the field of alchemy were good for his age and cultivation base, not to mention that most of this was self learned. He actually did not have any master and had learned everything on his own.

He joined the Tri cauldron peony sect about a hundred years ago when he was invited by a few elders. They noticed his talent in one of the tournaments and quickly took him in. Even the patriarch of the sect said that his talent was beyond his own and thus he was not worthy of being his master. Although he still gave him some lessons and other elders did the same too.

In fact, if it were not for the fact that Alchemist Bilao wanted to focus on his work and cultivation, he would have long since been given the position of an elder. It was said that even the Rainbow pill sect had eyes on him and was looking to recruit him at one point.

But this didn't happen for some reason and Alchemist Bilao chose to stay back at the Tri Cauldron peony sect.

Since he was at the peak of the core condensation realm, and also had over two hundred years of experience, a lot of the people knew that his breakthrough to the Nascent Soul realm was almost guaranteed.

Lin Mu even wondered why a person like that was called to the shop in the capital city when he should have been focused on preparing for his breakthrough instead.

Finally on the tenth day, as it had been promised, he was contacted by the shopkeeper and asked to collect his commissioned Dark Soil pill.

"Let's get it quickly, Wu Hei should also be done on his end soon." Lin Mu said to himself before leaving the library.

Tongguo Bing noticed Lin Mu leaving the building but did not question him this time. She had learned that he was a rather reserved person except for his monstrous appet.i.te and did not speak much.

Lin Mu directly entered the ground using phase and rushed to the shop. In less than two minutes, he was already at the shop and popped back up in a secluded area.

"Senior Wu Lian! You're here already? That was fast…" The Shopkeeper said upon seeing Lin Mu at the door.

He had just contacted Lin Mu and here was already here, which was rather quick.

"I was just nearby, so it didn't take me long." Lin Mu said, giving an excuse.

"That's good. Well, here is your Dark Soil pill." The shopkeeper said as he placed a box in front of Lin Mu.

The box was small, only the size of a palm, but Lin Mu could see the preservative formation that was carved on it. He opened it and saw the pill lying in a small crystal vial. The pill looked like it was made out of a hollow gla.s.s in which small particles of dark black soil were filled in.

Lin Mu slightly shook the vial and did not see the soil like particles move. This was how one was supposed to check the quality of the dark soil pill. If the particles of the soil moved, it meant that the pill was of a low potency and was not fully refined. But if it was packed to the brim, the particles would not move.

"Everything seems alright," Lin Mu said before leaving the shop and hurrying back to the library. This time he just used fade and returned.
