~THUD~
With the Nine Fall Thunder Earth Amalgam ore removed, Little Shrubby was freed.
Lin Mu stored the fragile ore into the ring and let Little Shrubby open up a path back outside. He couldn't sense anything else here that was useful thus it was fine to break a path open.
While it did seem like Little Shrubby was stuck, it wasn't exactly so. After all, the beast was strong enough to rip this entire place if he wanted to. The only reason he had not done so was due to Lin Mu's commands.
They didn't want to destroy the resource here after all.
And it was even more so for the Nine Fall Thunder Earth Amalgam ore. Even if Little Shrubby didn't know how fragile it was, he was still taking the care to not damage it. This was also why he was stuck in his position.
If he moved at all, there was a great chance the ore would break from the force.
Only when Lin Mu contacted him did he decide to ask for help.
A few minutes later, Lin Mu and Little Shrubby were in the bigger part of the tunnel allowing them to move freely.
"How did you find the Nine Fall Thunder Earth Amalgam Ore though?" Lin Mu questioned knowing that the energy of the ore was highly restricted.
Most couldn't even sense it even if their immortal sense was directly making contact with it.
"I just felt it because it had lightning elent in it." Little Shrubby replied. "I sensed it faintly and went deeper to find it before getting stuck." He added.
"I see… Guess it was due to the bloodline of the Thunderbolt Cheetah. It does grant you an affinity to the lightning elent." Lin Mu nodded his head.
It was not out of the normal for a beast bloodline like the Thunderbolt Cheetah to be able to sense other lightning elental objects. It was a beast that could reach the Celestial Realm after all.
Lin Mu didn't know this before when he had read the moirs of the Lost Immortal. But after having learned about the Celestials for a bit, he realized that the strength of the Thunderbolt Cheetah easily matched that of the Celestial Realm.
"What else did you find?" Lin Mu asked Little Shrubby.
"I found tons of gems and other ores." Little Shrubby said before withdrawing a few them for Lin Mu. "These are the best ones from what I can tell."
"Oh?" Lin Mu looked at the various materials.
So of them were ores, so were crystal and so were even herbs. There was even a mushroom among them along with what looked like a strip of lichen.
"This is good. All these are good for us and are valuable." Lin Mu nodded in approval.
"Yup! Yup! And there's more too." Little Shrubby agreed.
"We'll take a look properly once we're in the Sleepscape. For now, let's finish the work here." Lin Mu stated.
"Okay! I'll collect the rest of the materials that I can find." Little Shrubby replied.
"Great, then I'll start gathering the Immortal Stones from the areas you've already been to." Lin Mu said and the two split up again.
~WHOOSH~
Little Shrubby turned into a blur while Lin Mu flew to the place where Little Shrubby had started from.
"For the low grade immortal stones, I can just cut them directly. They won't lose any extra immortal Qi from that." Lin Mu muttered to himself and took out Afternoon Pine.
~SHING~
The sword humd in pleasure, while greedily sucking up the Immortal Qi in the air.
"You're having fun too, huh." Lin Mu raised a brow seeing the sword's actions.
~HUMM~
The Sword chid in response and seed to be excited.
"Very well. Help cut these Immortal Stones properly and I'll make you a special Sword Nurturing box." Lin Mu replied.
~HUMM~
Afternoon Pine seed very excited after hearing that and directly flew out of Lin Mu's hand.
~SLASH~SLASH~SLASH~
Lin Mu didn't even have to control the sword as it did the work on its own. And looking at it all, Lin Mu found it to be rather ticulous too.
'It's actually cutting it from the right spots where the rest of the crystal chunks won't fracture.' Lin Mu noted.
"It is a High Grade Immortal Weapon after all. It should have enough intelligence to handle tasks like these not to ntion for sothing like Immortal Stones." Xukong comnted.
"I see… Guess I should bring out Ocean Raker too then." Lin Mu withdrew his second Immortal Sword.
~SHING~
The single edged sword had a similar reaction to Afternoon Pine and seed to be excited.
"You can gather the Immortal Stones too and I'll built a Sword Nurturing Box for you too." Lin Mu gave the sa offer.
~HUMM~
The blade humd in response and flew out to do the work.
~SHING~SHING~SHING~
The two swords flew everywhere, cutting and slashing at the Immortal Stones. They split them in equal sized chunks allowing Lin Mu to easily store them away. The more they did this, the faster they got and after a while it seed like the two sword were now in a competition.
~SHING~ SHING~
"Are they seeing who's better?" Lin Mu was surprised.
"It isn't unusual for Immortal Weapons to compete for their master's favor. Especially for those that have multiple High Grade Immortal Weapons." Xukong said. "So immortals even end up with a headache dealing with their weapons." Xukong stated.
"Huh… that's new." Lin Mu didn't expect there to be a such a problem.
Though he also realized that it was a very privileged problem that most cultivators would never got to experience. After all, the weapons at the mid grade or below won't have the sa level of intelligence and would have to be nurtured a long ti before they reached the sa level.
And those that had high grade immortal weapons, simply could not afford more than one.
It was simply a problem for the rich!
