Chapter 143: Lake of Mist
The clouds and mist are floating, and the white horse passes through the gap.
Lin Mu's figure was like a startling rainbow, constantly searching for the paradise in the cave. He just passed by many places and rarely stopped.
Before this, Lin Mu had experienced the vastness of the Tianxiao Realm, and now he was impressed by the vastness of the Tianxiao Realm again.
The world of Tianxiao is so vast that it is tens of millions of miles away. There are many sects. Mortal dynasties are like stars in the sky. They are everywhere, and the population is countless.
Lin Mu had no intention of admiring the scenery or paying attention to human relationships. His only purpose was to find an uninhabited cave heaven and practice peace of mind.
But this wish is not easy to realize.
Along the way, Lin Mu saw many cave heavens and paradises, but what was frustrating was that every cave heaven paradise had already been occupied by people.
Some of these Cave Heaven Paradises are as high as the fifth level, and they are all occupied by sects. The strength of these sects is not far behind that of Qianyu Sword Sect. Some cave heavens and paradises are of extremely low grade, usually second grade, and some even only have first grade. Those who cultivate in such a paradise are either casual cultivators or declining cultivating families.
Lin Mu had seen no less than a hundred places of cave heaven and paradise, large and small, but none of them were suitable for him.
Lin Mu had no way of accessing the high-level cave heaven and paradise, which had long been monopolized by the sect.
Lin Mu looked down upon the low-grade Cave Heaven Paradise at all, and the first-grade Cave Heaven Paradise was completely worthless to him.
His eyes were set on those second-grade or third-grade cave heaven blessed lands.
Lin Mu also found dozens of such cave heavens and blessed places.
It's just a pity that in most cases, before Lin Mu enters these cave heaven paradises, someone comes out and drives him out.
Occasionally, there are one or two caves and paradises occupied by immortal cultivating families. They actively invite Lin Mu to enter, hoping to invite Lin Mu to serve as an elder or something like that.
Lin Mu thought about it and refused resolutely.
He just wants to practice quietly, other people's affairs have nothing to do with him, and he doesn't have that much energy to deal with others.
The lessons learned by Shi Weihan and Qian Fuzi were still vivid in his mind, and Lin Mu did not dare to get into the water easily again.
Among them, there was a paradise in the cave, which Lin Mu was most excited about.
This Cave Heaven Blessed Land is called Miaoyunze, and it is a third-grade Cave Heaven Blessed Land. This place is sparsely populated, quiet and elegant.
When Lin Mu first discovered this cave paradise, he was inexplicably surprised. However, he stood down and went forward to check, and found that someone was already living here.
Lin Mu was extremely disappointed. After talking with the cave master here, Miao Wuyun, he learned that this was the place where the declining sect Miao Yun Sect was located.
The Miaoyun Sect was once a large sect. A thousand years ago, it was the most powerful sect in the Tianxiao Realm. Now, the person with the highest cultivation level in the sect is only in the late stage of the Spiritual Silence Stage, and there are only two cultivators in the Spiritual Silence Stage in the sect. These two people invited Lin Mu to stay and work together to revive the Miaoyun Sect and kill tens of thousands of Sword Sects in the future to wash away their shame.
It was precisely because the Miaoyun Sect was defeated by the Wanjian Sect that it fell from the clouds.
Lin Mu still has a deep hatred for himself and does not want to cause any more trouble. The strength of Wanjian Sect is no less than that of Qianyu Sword Sect, which is not something Lin Mu can shake at the moment.
Moreover, after Lin Mu learned more about it, he found that there were too many disciples in the Miaoyun Sect and they were in the rising stage, so there was no spare spiritual field for his own use.
Lin Mu politely declined Miao Wuyun's invitation and left.
Lin Mu once again embarked on a journey of searching. Time was like water. In the blink of an eye, three months had passed.
During this period, Lin Mu entered and exited the rotating moon space several times.
The originally refined spirit-returning pills had been consumed by his parents and Shitou. Fortunately, the new batch of spiritual herbs had also matured. Lin Mu helped his father collect the spiritual herbs and prepared more than 1,800 ingredients.
This time, Lin Mu didn't do the refining himself. He asked Shi Shi to start practicing.
These 1,800 materials are enough for Stone to spend half a year.
Shitou's alchemy level is too low. Although compared with Lin Mu back then, Shitou's cultivation is already in the foundation-building stage. He also possesses the Bell Bamboo Shoot Fire, and his qualifications are not bad. He is not inferior to Lin Mu in all aspects.
But in terms of experience, he was far behind and couldn't compare with Lin Mu.
When Lin Mu refined the Spirit Gathering Pill, the quantity was no less than ten thousand furnaces. The experience accumulated in it is definitely not comparable to that of a novice like Shitou.
Although Lin Mu had no secrets and taught everything he learned to others, experience can only be understood and understood after personal experience.
Stone sounds easy to you, but after you actually refine it, you realize how difficult it is.
After some refining, hundreds of materials were consumed, but the effect was unsatisfactory, and the success rate was barely 30%!
This is a complete waste of materials!
But Lin Mu didn't say anything. Instead, he encouraged Shi Shi and pointed out his shortcomings.
Although the success rate of stone refining is not high, the refining process is very serious and never lazy.
Nowadays, the success rate is not high, which is understandable. He started refining second-grade elixirs. His starting point was too high, and Lin Mu didn't want to be too harsh on him.
Only by experiencing everything personally can you understand the difficulties and make progress slowly. The same is true for alchemy.
Shitou's perseverance is quite good. With Lin Mu's large supply of materials, he has enough time to explore experience and learn.
Lin Mu simply left these more than a thousand materials for Shi Shi to practice, and went in from time to time to give guidance.
Father Lin and Mother Lin were not idle either. After planting another batch of spiritual herbs, they continued to take pills and practice hard under Lin Mu's persuasion.
After arranging his parents and stones, Lin Mu continued to search for the paradise of cave heaven.
He has visited half of the entire Tianxiao Realm, but has not found a suitable place.
On this day, Lin Mu came to a misty place.
The front was blurry and white, and there was fog for miles around.
This place is rich in aura, far from being comparable to ordinary places.
Lin Mu dropped his figure, pondered for a while, and then walked resolutely into the white mist.
The deeper into the white mist, the more joyful Lin Mu's face became.
The spiritual energy in this white mist was extremely rich, and Lin Mu was certain that this place was at least a third-grade cave heaven paradise.
After walking for three to five miles, Lin Mu still had not reached the end of the white mist, but the spiritual energy around him became increasingly dense.
Suddenly!
Lin Mu's eyes lit up. There was a change in front of him, and it was no longer the same white mist.
A huge lake appeared in front of Lin Mu's eyes. The water was dense and the lake was endless. Waves of water mist floated from the water and merged with the white mist in the air.
Lin Mu suddenly realized, could this diffuse white mist be caused by the lake?
Lake of Mist!
The fog covering several miles around must be related to this lake.
The lake was full of aura, and Lin Mu couldn't help but feel refreshed.
With a flash of cloud boots under his feet, Lin Mu immediately took to the air and flew towards the lake.
He wanted to see if there was anyone living in this lake. If not, then this third-grade cave paradise would belong to him.
Lin Mu's figure was like a rainbow, flying around the lake. An hour later, Lin Mu returned to the same place, with a flash of joy in his eyes.
The radius of this lake is no less than ten miles!
Lin Mu flew for a week without finding any trace of human beings. With a sudden thought, he flew towards the center of the lake.
Lin Mu vaguely noticed that there seemed to be a piece of land ahead of him.
The light from the Cloud-Stepping Boots flashed, and he became faster and immediately flew forward.
Lin Mu smiled as he was in the air. This turned out to be an island.
The island has towering trees, dense jungles and is full of vitality.
Lin Mu flew around the island and found no trace of human habitation, and couldn't help but feel happy.
He hurriedly stood down and wanted to survey the terrain.
Landing on the soft ground, Lin Mu could easily feel that the spiritual energy in this island was definitely the strongest here.
The ground is covered with dense vines and weeds as tall as one person, making it impossible to pass.
With a thought, Lin Mu sacrificed the Five Elements Ring. With a boost of spiritual power, the Five Elements Ring immediately grew several times in size and flew forward whistling.
The weeds and vines on the ground were swept away from the roots by the Five Elements Ring, and fell into pieces, and a path more than a foot wide was opened.
Lin Mu stepped on the weeds and vines and walked slowly inside.
The deeper he went inside, the bigger the smile on Lin Mu's face became. Not only is this place rich in aura, but the land is also extremely fertile, which can be seen by looking at the growth of vines and weeds. If the land is cultivated carefully, it will be no problem to create dozens of acres of spiritual land.
The fallen leaves on the ground are more than a foot deep. It is obvious that no one has been here for a long time. If you practice in seclusion here, you don't have to worry about others coming to disturb you.
Lin Mu was about to move his parents and Shitou out of the rotating moon space, but suddenly he felt something strange in his heart.
Quiet, quiet and a little weird!
Since Lin Mu set foot on the island until now, he has not found an animal, and has never even heard a bird song.
This is obviously not common sense!
Lin Mu suddenly remembered, since this is the third-grade cave heaven paradise, why is it so deserted and no one comes to live there?
There must be something fishy in this!
Before he could think about it, a sound broke through the air.
The sharp whistle seemed to penetrate Lin Mu's eardrums, and Lin Mu hurriedly looked up.
At this glance, Lin Mu almost fell to the ground.
The water arrows that filled the sky ahead were coming in dense numbers. The water arrows passed through the trees and made a splashing sound when they rubbed against the leaves, which made Lin Mu feel palpitated.
The water arrows were as dense as raindrops, attacking overwhelmingly, with no less than a thousand in number!
Someone is attacking!
No, this is not a sneak attack.
Such a large-scale attack was definitely not carried out by one person.
What's this? Is it possible that there are people living here? Why didn't I find it?
A series of questions flashed through Lin Mu's mind. It all happened so fast that he was caught off guard.
Before Lin Mu could think about it, thousands of water arrows with a murderous intent were about to hit Lin Mu.
Although these water arrows were only low-level water spells, they were superior in number. Without knowing why, Lin Mu did not dare to take them head-on.
He couldn't guess what would happen next.
Everything happened so suddenly!
From the beginning to the end, Lin Mu didn't even discover who the enemy was, how many there were, and where they would launch the attack. He had no idea about anything like this.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
The water arrows shot wildly at where Lin Mu was standing. Lin Mu's figure flashed and immediately disappeared from the place.
