Walker Of The Worlds

Making the second Sword Nurturing box took Lin Mu a total of fifty hours as compared to the first that only took twenty hours.

But having finished the work, Lin Mu was certainly pleased.

"Go on, try it out." Lin Mu spoke to the double edged sword.

~HUMM~

Afternoon Pine eagerly flew up and laid in the Sword Nurturing Box.

~CLACK~

Lin Mu closed its lid and let the sword enjoy its effects. At the same time, he used his immortal sense to verify if all the circuits were working perfectly and that the energy flow was stable.

"Perfect!" Lin Mu was satisfied with his work.

In fact, it was actually very impressive.

If any Immortal Weapon forger were to see this and know that this was Lin Mu's fresh attempt at making a Sword Nurturing Box, they would be stunned.

Both of the Sword Nurturing Boxes were good enough to be classified at the Mid Grade.

For a beginner, this was already a big achievement.

After all, the normal result of a beginner was usually a failure. And yet, Lin Mu had shown success in both his attempts.

While part of it could be attributed to great materials, it was also Lin Mu's skill. After all, Lin Mu had quite literally used the best possible material, The Peak Grade immortal stone for this.

This made the mid grade product look a bit bad, but one must not forget that it was something that could be improved later on.

It was not a fixed product and would be worked on again, once Lin Mu felt like he had the skills to do so.

"I now need to rest too…" Lin Mu felt tired after having worked on the two Sword Nurturing boxes.

It did need a lot of his focus after all, and had tired him out mentally.

Even if he was technically asleep, his mind was still awake and at work. He now needed to let his mind rest.

"Resting the mind is important too. You should leave the Sleepscape and just sleep normally now." Xukong advised.

"Yeah… I intended to do that." Lin Mu agreed.

Having decided that, Lin Mu simply let go of his consciousness and fell into a deep sleep.

And while he recuperated, his beasts and weapons were doing the same.

The two swords were being nurtured while Little Shrubby and the twin snakes were cultivating.

With the increase in the Wood elemental immortal Qi, Little Shrubby could actively absorb it now. His Fume Wood Panther Bloodline allowed him to use it and greatly boosted his healing ability as well as vitality.

As for the twins, they were simply assimilating the Yin and Yang Qi that they had consumed before. While they could absorb attribute-less Immortal Qi too, it wasn't as effective as the Yin and Yang Qi to them.

In fact, Yin and Yang Qi were components of attribute-less immortal Qi too. They only thing was that they were in a balance and only by breaking this would they be separated out. But this also resulted in the loss of a lot of energy.

Thus, cultivating using attribute-less Immortal Qi wasn't as efficient for the twins. For them, the more Imbalanced Qis were better.

All the other elemental Qis were imbalanced Qis. They had varying amounts of yin and yang component in them, making it easier to split them out.

For example, fire element had higher amounts of yang than yin and the opposite was true for water.

Of course, with the twins' appetite, it was easy for them to just consume other things in bulk. They could still break them down into yin and yang the same.

The beasts weren't the only ones improving in the Sleepscape either, as the plants were doing the same. While each of the plants had grown bigger, they weren't done improving yet. The Immortal Apple Tree continued to absorb immortal Qi and Wood elemental immortal Qi.

This led to the flowers on it to transform.

Their centers swelled up while the petals fell up. Slowly but steadily, they were growing into the form of small apples. Fine differences could be seen between the young apples too. Some of them would stay green while the others would turn red.

They would be turning into the two types of apples that Lin Mu had seen before.

Then was the Wood Spirit Tulip that had reached the Immortal realm a while back. It was now producing more Pure Wood Essence, having increased its flower heads. Its main flower head was the biggest of course, and produced the most Pure Wood Essence.

What should have taken it years to grow now merely took days.

The addition of the Violet Mystic Life tree, as well as the Immortal Essence Crystal mine, had given it this boost. Plus, the addition of the Immortal Stone Source vein had helped it improve its cultivation base too.

The better its cultivation base was, the more it would be able to produce the Pure Wood Essence.

It continued to sway gently in the air while absorbing both types of energies with its body.

The Purple Sickle Amaranth was in a similar state, though it was mostly absorbing the immortal Qi.

But in its normal metabolism, it would convert a part of the Immortal Qi into Wood Elemental Qi, thereby raising its concentration in the air.

Each of the plants formed a progressive cycle, promoting the growth of each other and providing Lin Mu with more resources.

The owner of it all was currently in a dreamless sleep.

All his worries were gone for now, and his mind was recovering.

Lin Mu slept like this for a week before he finally opened his eyes.

~YAWN~

Letting out a loud yawn, Lin Mu stretched his body.

He called out Little Shrubby and the twins before they all had a nice breakfast.

Though it was unknown if it was really the time for breakfast or not. It was hard to tell the time in the Desolate Blood Battlefield after all.

To the small family though, it was just being together that mattered.
