Chapter 671 - Exponential Growth Of Allies

Lin Mu sat in a private courtyard that had been built for him by the Mu clan. He was going through the tens of reports that had been given to him by the various allies that they had now.

~Sigh~

"Is this how Wu Hei felt, managing an organization?" Lin Mu muttered to himself.

Lin Mu's plan was going forward steadily, and another month had pa.s.sed just like this. The Fen clan had finally managed to release their bloodline seal and had shot forward in cultivation base.

In less than two weeks, they had six Nascent Soul realm cultivators appearing in their clan, including Miss Fen herself. This was a shocking increase, even for a top cultivation sect, and had made Lin Mu question Xukong about it.

"Seems like this was more of a cursed seal rather than an actual bloodline seal. This inhibited their own talent and prevented them from progressing." Xukong replied.

"What's the difference between a cursed seal and an actual bloodline seal, senior?" Lin Mu questioned.

"If it were an actual bloodline seal, even if they had released it, their potential would have taken quite a while to recover. It's like a paralyzed patient. Even if they are cured of their paralysis, it still takes them a long time to recover full control of their body.

Whereas in a cursed seal, even if the seal was suppressing them from progressing, their potential was still there. I reckon when the seal was originally placed it would have been successful in suppressing both their talent and potential, but over the years as more and more descendants were born, the grip of the curse weakened.

The potential of the cultivators was still being suppressed, but their talent had already recovered and now, with the seal removed, it was like a dam being broken. Plus, we say before that they had very stable foundations." Xukong explained.

"I see… I guess having the Fen clan as our allies will be far better than I thought. It still feels unreal how someone this powerful was living here, hidden in plain sight." Lin Mu said with a sign.

"Hidden dragons and crouching tigers are everywhere in the world. All you need to do is look properly.

Besides, we know that this world has been in a decline for a long time now. With the potential, this world had, it should have easily had a lot more strong cultivators, but the constant wars and invasions in the past have weakened it considerably.

The degeneration of cultivation knowledge is also one of the main causes for this, I must say." Xukong replied.

Hearing this, Lin Mu was suddenly reminded of something.

"Is this how… the other cultivation worlds are senior?" Lin Mu asked.

"Indeed. Clans with talent similar to the Fen clan are abundant and can even be considered average. The only reason, why the world you live in is not at the lowest rank is because it still has cultivation.

There are many worlds out there in the universe that have no cultivation at all. Most of them are just newborn worlds and are still weak, but there are some worlds that are forbidden.

There are even worlds whose inhabitants are as strong as cultivators despite not having a shred of Qi in them. Then there are worlds that can control the wind and clouds as if their own limbs, despite having no cultivation base.

The more you see, the more you learn. Even I don't dare say that I know everything in the world. If one was able to learn even 0.01% of the knowledge of the entire cosmos, they would be proclaimed as a saint.

Forget cultivating, the heavens themselves would give them their approval and call them to them directly." Xukong enlightened.

Hearing this, Lin Mu felt his views expand. While he had seen and read a lot of things from the memoirs of the Lost immortal, it could still not be compared to the wisdom that senior Xukong had.

Lin Mu knew one thing that, even if the Lost Immortal had reached a high level of cultivation and lived for perhaps thousands of years, Senior Xukong had lived exponentially longer than that.

It was at a point where Xukong admitted even he did not know how old he truly was.

In addition to the Fen clan, the Mu clan had also grown significantly. Mu Tao had also broken thought to the Nascent Soul realm, albeit with more a.s.sistance. Unlike his uncle Mu Niu, Mu Tao needed a tribulation platform for him to safely break through.

The platform was made by none other than Jing Luo, and the Mu clan was tremendously grateful to them such that the few females left in the clan had often sent flirtatious glances towards Jing Luo.

The man simply laughed to himself and politely declined their advances, telling them that they were old enough to be his granddaughters. Lin Mu even learned that Jing Luo apparently had a betrothed and was to get married a long time ago, if it only were not for the destruction of the Jing clan.

Ever since then, Jing Luo had simply chosen to focus on the recovery of his clan and avenging it, vowing to not do anything else until his clan was revived. Lin Mu couldn't help but feel awed by the man's dedication and determination.

On the side of the merchants, there had also been some progress though mostly for the intelligence. Lin Mu had been given a report on the suspected whereabouts of a Hei corps outpost.

Though this was what they had a.s.sumed and might not be fully true.

"Hmm… if there is one member, there should be more. Plus, since they were this far from the Shuang Qian kingdom, they had a longer time to hide. They should definitely be there." Lin Mu a.n.a.lyzed.

He continued to read the doc.u.ments and saw that the location mentioned was a kingdom called the Hong Lin kingdom.

"Hmm… so the Hong Lin Kingdom is the next destination…" Lin Mu muttered to himself.
