Xukong could see the limitations in learning the Mud Rot Fist, thus suggested sothing.
"Comprehending the Marsh Dao will be an obstacle, but you should be able to learn it over ti." Xukong had confidence in Lin Mu's comprehension. "Though for now, you should probably focus on the Cloud Dragon Stride." He stated.
"Yes." Lin Mu agreed, knowing that it would have the best benefits in the current scenario.
Comprehending Daos that were close to each other or having relations was easier than learning a Dao that was entirely distanced from what one knew. Lin Mu had learned the Bending Will Fists and as such, had a faint understanding of the Wind Dao.
Wind Dao was close to the Sky Dao and as such, Lin Mu should be able to inch at least a bit closer to it.
But before Lin Mu could embroil himself into comprehending that, he needed to convey what he had learned to the others. He clarified so things with Senior Xukong about what could be revealed and what could not.
After all, he couldn't tell the others about the Chiric Fiend God without them getting greatly injured by it. ~shua~
He quickly sent a ssage to every and gathered them in the eting hall at the center of the base.
Lin Mu was not the first to arrive there though, as Lady Kang, Ziran, Crown Prince Feng Shun and Qiao De were already there discussing things.
"Did you learn sothing?" Lady Kang asked.
"I did." Lin Mu nodded his head. This intrigued them, and they let the others arrive. About a minute later, everyone was at the eting hall, so Lin Mu began speaking.
"I've learned what the rock we took out was, as well as the energy that was released from it." Lin Mu revealed. "I've also learned more about the origin of the Chiric beasts." He added.
"What?" Crown Prince Feng Shun hadn't expected that Lin Mu would figure out so much.
"How did you do that?" Ziran was curious.
"All it took was a little consulting and checking old records." Lin Mu replied as per what had been decided between him and Xukong.
"Oh?" Ziran was curious about such records, but held back for now. "So what did you learn?" he asked the matter at hand.
"What we're facing is… A remnant of an ancient war." Lin Mu stated before beginning to explain everything.
He told them about the Chiric Beasts and their origins, as well as the link to an ancient power. Though he didn't tell them about the Chiric Grand Revolution Technique as Xukong had prevented him from revealing that.
It was a cultivation technique that was far too sensitive and the re ntion of it could attract attention from people one wouldn't want to.
And it wouldn't just be limited to the Immortal Realm either. The Chiric Grand Revolution had caused issues across multiple realms, thus all those affected powers and their descendants would be watching carefully.
It would be a bad idea if one accidentally got associated with the offending party after all.
It took Lin Mu a while to explain it all, as it wasn't exactly a simple thing. Not to ntion, it had to be supplicated with a few other things that the people in the group didn't know. But they weren't as unaware as Lin Mu had thought.
"To think it would be linked to 'that' Beast Emperor…" Ziran muttered. "I've seen old ruins that have depicted him… but to think his influence was that great." He revealed.
"There are ruins with him still present?" Lin Mu was surprised by this as according to Xukong, the traces of the Beast Emperor of Radiance were supposed to have been erased as per his request.
"Well it's just one ruins I found a long ti ago." Ziran replied. "It was surprising since it wasn't even in the Farlands." He added.
"Where was it then?" Lin Mu questioned.
"In the territory of the Eastern Immortal Court, there is a wild world by the na of Tim's Playground." Ziran answered.
"Tim's Playground?" Lin Mu raised his brows, finding the na rather strange. "What kind of na is that?" Even Qiao De found it strange.
"Well, I didn't find much about it. But since it's a Wild World, there are no humans or intelligent races on it." Ziran replied. "Not even beasts with intelligence." He added.
"Huh? That's rare." Lin Mu furrowed his brows. "Are they not Immortal Beasts?" he asked.
"No, there are immortal beasts there, but they aren't of the sa intelligence as normal immortal beasts." Ziran answered. "They're more like normal animals if we are to estimate their intelligence." He added.
"Interesting…" Lin Mu muttered. He had known about Wild Worlds, and they were just a common term for a World that didn't have intelligent life. But it still had plenty of life, including both flora and fauna.
Such Worlds would often be occupied by those that found it and utilized for resources.
"What power controls the world?" Lady Kang asked. "None." Ziran replied. "Not even the Immortal Court seems to have any records about its ownership other than the na which has been kept for a long ti." He added.
"Huh…" Crown Prince Feng Shun hadn't expected that. "A Wild World found in the territory of the Eastern Immortal Court would certainly be monitored by them. At the very least, they would send a Beacon of the Guardian temple there." He added.
"For so reason they didn't do that either." Ziran replied. "I went to the world due to a commission long ti ago. But it wasn't even the main target. I simply ended up there after investigating so information that the commissioner was looking for.
In my search for it, I learned that the information was supposedly located at a certain coordinate. This led to the Wild World nad Tim's Playground." He explained.
"If its nad like that… It should belong to soone nad 'Tim', shouldn't it?" Crown Princess Shang guessed.
"It should. But I found no further information about the na we don't know who he was, but since even the Immortal Court kept the na in records, soone certainly approved of it in the past." Ziran replied. "Hmm… Considering the fact that the Beast Emperor of Radiance's traces were erased upon his request, it makes sense that the details about the Wild World were removed too. They only kept its na in the records while erasing any information about its background." Lin Mu stated.
"Yes, it's clear that whoever this 'Tim' was, they were certainly linked to the Beast Emperor of Radiance." Ziran nodded.
"Though… a Playground. As if the world was given to soone as a gift." Qiao De said, going over it.
"It wouldn't be unprecedented." Lady Kang chid in. "Our Great Kang Auction house certainly has a couple of Immortal Worlds like these for sale too." She added.
This made so people in the group raise their brows, but since Lin Mu had already heard sothing like this before from Lady Kang, he was unaffected. "And in the past, there have been many cases of experts granting worlds in their ownership to people who pleased them." Lady Kang explained further. "Perhaps, this… 'Tim's Playground' was given to a person nad 'Tim' by the Beast Emperor of Radiance?" she guessed.
"Hmm… Soone of that level would certainly be capable of handing over an entire world." Ziran nodded. Lin Mu was in agreent too and couldn't help but wonder just how strong would one be to causally do a thing like that.
"But this is a bad thing for us in the end." Monk Hushu spoke after a while of silence. "I do not know how qualified we are to face a threat that was literally used as a war weapon by a being that threatened entire realms." He said with concern.
"Monk Hushu is correct." Elder Hu could see the threat. "We might have been able to deal with the Chiric Beasts all this ti, but who's to say the new Chiric beasts that are created by the Chira Plant wouldn't be ten tis more dangerous?" he asked.
"Whatever it might be, we can't lose or morale." Lin Mu stated. "Besides, I do not think the Celestial that modified this Spatial Plane would have missed a flaw like that. Even if it was a War weapon back then, I reckon for a Celestial it would just be a minor nuisance in the end. They should have certainly set a contingency for it." He added.
"Let's hope that Daoist Mu Lin is correct." Daoist Chu said. "Plus, now that we know all this, we can prepare for the threat." He added.
"That's right." Crown Prince Feng Shun agreed. "We can cultivate, consolidate our strength and strategize!" Lin Mu was of the sa opinion and knew this was the right way to go about it.
"It's decided then. We'll prepare for the worst that can co, and hope for the best." Lin Mu said out loud.
