Walker Of The Worlds

Having spent looking through the Vitality Hall, Lin Mu was satisfied.

He wanted nothing more to start cultivating the Three apertures Invoking technique. But just as he was about to step out of the Vitality Hall, a voice stopped him.

"Wait."

"Saintess?" Lin Mu immediately stopped.

The Saintess had not spoken for a while and Lin Mu hadn't sensed her near him either.

'Did she go somewhere and just come back?' Lin Mu wondered.

"You wish to learn about the Wind Dao too, don't you?" The Saintess asked.

"Yes… I did feel interested in it." Lin Mu was amazed by the convenience it provided, not to mention the fact that the wind element was one of the four heavenly elements too.

Lin Mu didn't have a natural affinity to wind, thus he had not really learned it and neither did he have any comprehension of it.

"There is a technique here that might be right for you. With someone like you that doesn't have a natural affinity to the wind element, it is perfect." The Saintess informed.

"There is?" Lin Mu's eyes lit up.

"Go to that building and go to the very back where the bulk of the low quality techniques are kept." The Saintess instructed.

Lin Mu didn't question her and directly walked to the building.

Similar to the Vitality hall, this was a separate department that specialized in all types of Qi skills and techniques. It was called as the Skill Hall and was smaller than the Vitality hall.

Since there were only textural techniques stored here, it didn't need much space, unlike the Vitality hall which also sold materials.

The Skill hall was divided into various sections, according to the rank and quality of a skill. These ranged all the way from peak immortal grade skills all the way to unranked mortal martial skills.

The section that the Saintess had asked Lin Mu to go to was the place where the Spirit Qi skills were kept. It was at the very back and not many people were here. There were shelves stacked with various books, scrolls, and even singular sheets of paper.

It was clear that even in here, there were several techniques and skills that were simply incomplete.

"Go to the fourth shelf from the last, find a book with the name Bending Will Fists." The Saintess spoke.

With Lin Mu's immortal sense, finding a single book among a thousand was easy and he found it within seconds.

"Here it is…" Lin Mu took a look at the dusty book.

Its pages were fully intact and other than some dust on it, it didn't seem to be damaged. It was a little strange since the other sections of the hall were clean and dust free.

'Guess it shows just how much they value the techniques kept here…' Lin Mu reckoned.

"You should learn this. If you reach a good enough level, you will be able to sense the Wind." The Saintess spoke. "This technique was made by a great expert once." She revealed.

"A great expert?" To Lin Mu, if the Saintess referred to someone as a great expert, they must have been at least on her level.

"Yes, you'll know more once you read it." The Saintess replied.

Lin Mu nodded his head and took the book. He walked to the counter and paid for the book before finally leaving the Grand Sky Pavilion.

The cost of the book was merely ten mid grade spirit stones, which was microscopic compared to what Lin Mu had spent so far. In fact, he had to search his ring hard to even find something equivalent to a mid grade spirit stone, since he didn't really have any left.

In the end, he ended up paying for the book with a few spirit Qi restoration pills.

It was the first time Lin Mu had a hard time paying for something because all he had was of high value. Using the crystal card wasn't an option either, as the lowest denomination he would be able to use it for would be a single low grade immortal stone, which would still be many times higher.

Having gotten everything he could for now, Lin Mu decided to find a place to stay. It wasn't hard for him to find a place either, as the information booklet he had read earlier had marked such places too.

He simply rented an isolated courtyard and locked up for a few days of seclusion.

"You can come out now, Little Shrubby." He let his companion out.

~meow~

"Are you done?" Little Shrubby asked.

"Mmhmm, now I can cultivate." Lin Mu nodded his head. "You can continue what you were doing before."

"Yay! I'll cook some new dishes for you later." Little Shrubby cheered before heading into the kitchen.

This courtyard had an entire kitchen attached, so Little Shrubby had a pre-made place to test everything.

Lin Mu also placed the twins in the room before sitting down and reading the Bending Will Fist's manual.

The technique was a spirit Qi skill and was relatively low quality.

The name of the technique was actually not fully correct. What the technique actually did was to use wind to misdirect the attacks of a foe. This would make it seem like the user was controlling the 'will' of his opponent.

Of course with it being a low grade spirit Qi skill, it didn't allow one to use wind spirit Qi. Rather it made one infuse spirit Qi into their hands and practice a unique set of boxing routines that would get one used to the flow of air.

Once one grasped this and was able to sense it clearly, they could move onto actually directing winds through their attacks.

'No wonder Saintess said that this technique is good for those that have no natural affinity to the wind element. This is using the wind indirectly…' Lin Mu thought.

But while Lin Mu was reading this, Xukong spoke up.

"The Storm King, Shirong's technique?" Xukong said in a surprised tone.
