Walker Of The Worlds Chapter 1421 The Immortal Apple Tree

1421 The Immortal Apple Tree

The sudden transformation of the Spirit Apple tree was greatly unexpected to Lin Mu.

While he had already seen it change before by growing the Wood Spirit Apples, this change was still a bit too much. After all, by changing from Spirit Qi to immortal Qi, it was turning from mortal to immortal!

It was a great change, especially since the tree itself had no cultivation.

‘No, wait… does it have cultivation? I do know that it is sentient.’ Lin Mu felt confused.

The plants in the Garden of Karma all seemed to have a certain level of sentience. That seemed to be the minimum requirement for them to exist. But the thing was, other than the Wood Spirit Tulip and the Purple Sickle Amaranth which Lin Mu knew had cultivation bases, the Spirit Apple Tree had not been added to it.

It had come into existence along with the Garden Of Karma.

Thus it was also the most mysterious of them all.

~Sigh~

“I’ll eventually find the answers… I’m sure of it.” Lin Mu muttered to himself before glancing at the newly formed apple.

The apple was the perfect mix of red and, while a hint of sweet aroma could be smelled from it. The aroma was rather pleasant and Lin Mu could sense immortal Qi in it too.

‘For it to exude this much immortal Qi… it’s a little strong right?’ Lin Mu reckoned before extending his hand.

It wrapped around the apple, before being plucked firmly.

p、a,nd a-n、o、ve,l ~rustle~

The branch shook lightly from the action, and the leaves rustled.

Lin Mu felt the apple in his hand and the rich Immortal Qi that seemed to be contained within it. Then without waiting, he brought the apple to his mouth and took a bite.

~CRUNCH~

The flesh of the apple was firm yet crisp, as the sweet and sour juices spread in Lin Mu’s mouth. He felt like the taste had improved by several times but it was hard to tell how that was possible.

Then there was the immortal Qi that was already spreading in his mouth. Perhaps it was the presence of the immortal Qi that made the taste of the apple better. It was in a very simple form and was quickly absorbed from Lin Mu’s mouth.

Unlike before, it didn’t even need to reach his stomach to be absorbed.

~GULP~

Lin Mu swallowed the morsel before biting into the apple again.

~CRUNCH~

While he chewed the second morsel, the first one was already in his belly. There it started to fully release the immortal Qi and the vital essence that was contained within it. It was rapidly absorbed by his stomach and quickly circulated throughout his body.

His meridians were working perfectly and the new Qi circuit he had developed was quickly refining the immortal Qi into his own. In just a few seconds, the immortal Qi was refined and deposited into his Dantian, where it merged into the pool of the original immortal Qi.

The amount that Lin Mu had depleted earlier in the battle against the Saber Battle Union was replenished with just a single bite!

One must know that the immortal weapons that Lin Mu had used truly consumed quite a bit of immortal Qi. Especially for someone like him who was still at the First Tribulation Stage of the Immortal realm.

Normally speaking, a first tribulation stage immortal simply shouldn’t have the amount of immortal Qi needed to utilize a high grade immortal tool or weapon. But with Lin Mu’s ma.s.sive Dantian, that problem was automatically resolved.

Not to mention, the immortal weapons had picked him rather than him picking them. Thus they wouldn’t fully drain him of immortal Qi and would actually a.s.sist him by absorbing immortal Qi on their own too.

Still, with the combined use of Afternoon Pine and Wonder Seeker combined with the Scorching Sparrow Darts, Lin Mu had used a decent amount of immortal Qi. If it were to be quantified, it was around 10% of his total immortal Qi.

This was a large number, especially considering he had only fought for a few minutes.

Even then, he was at an advantage since he had ambushed them. If it was an open fight or if there were more people, Lin Mu might have had a tough time. Or at the very least, he would have to resort to escape right away.

This was also why he felt surprised at the amount of immortal Qi contained within one bite of the apple.

‘Ten percent in one bite… there are at least six bites… this will restore more than half of my immortal Qi.’ Lin Mu calculated, finding it to be rather good.

He continued to eat the apple and soon finished it. And since his original capacity of immortal Qi was already replenished, he was now adding more on top of it. The pool of immortal Qi started to increase little by little and was now 40% bigger than it originally was.

Such a fast growth was quite astonis.h.i.+ng, but Lin Mu also knew that it was only because this was the first time.

‘The more immortal Qi I absorb, the smaller the increase in the pool size there will be. Besides, in the Immortal realm, the cultivation base doesn’t depend on the immortal Qi itself, but rather the tribulations…’ Lin Mu didn’t forget the goals.

He sat down and circulated his Qi, a.s.similating it more. A few minutes later, all of it had been incorporated and Lin Mu opened his eyes again.

The Spirit apple tree was still in front of him.

“No… it isn’t a spirit apple tree anymore.” Lin Mu shook his head. “It is now an Immortal Apple tree.” He renamed it.

~RUSTLE~

The tree shook in response as if nodding in response too.

“Seems like you like it at least.” Lin Mu chuckled. “Though I wonder how long it will take you to grow more immortal Apples. They are certainly not going to grow as fast as the Spirit apples.” He reckoned.
