Chapter 2413 The Full Support Of An Empire
Lin Mu had no idea of the Armored Man"s thoughts, and neither did he know who he was.
All he knew was that he had possibly witnessed the Zenith of Dao.
This is what he could understand after seeing the Armored Man"s demonstration. The Zenith he talked about was nothing but the peak of what one could achieve from Daos.
"It is possible to learn all the Dao"s like that." Lin Mu thought to himself as he continued to fly unimpeded through the cosmos. He got to learn a lot about the Daos as well as how they worked together, giving him a lot of inspiration as well as motivation. He now wished to work even harder and wondered when he could do it.
"If only I could return to my body, or at the very least the Sleepscape." Lin Mu thought to himself. "According to my previous estimation, the sleep period would be at least a hundred years. He didn"t know how much time had pa.s.sed so far. It could be fifty years, or it could just be a year. Time was rather obscure while dreaming anyways.
"If that is really what I am doing right now… it felt far too real." Lin Mu pondered on it as his form started to turn ethereal once more. His consciousness faded away and he once again entered sleep.
Unbeknownst to him, a great project was currently underway in the Capital City of the Dao Wind Empire.
At the private palace of the Crown Prince, a few people were currently gathered.
These were of course, none other than Lin Mu"s companions excluding Lady Kang who was still unconscious and Min Ju who was taking care of her. In addition to them though, there were two additional people.
The first was the Emperor of the Dao Wind Empire and Crown Prince Feng Shun"s father, Emperor Feng!
He currently stood along with the others, facing the throne upon which sat an elegant woman wearing a veil. Her fiery red hair flowed behind her, while a pure white cloak covered her body, making it hard to make out how she looked.
This was of course, none other than the Saintess!
"Honored Celestial, things have been prepared as you asked." Emperor Feng spoke while cupping his hands and slightly bowing his head.
If any of his subjects or ministers were to see this, they would be shocked to the point of simply pa.s.sing out. Never in their lives could they ever think of seeing the almighty Emperor behaving in such a subservient manner.
The same was the case for the others though, as they all bowed their heads too.
Emperor Feng though didn"t mind this at all, as he knew that any of the other Emperors along with the old ancestors would do the very same thing if they knew who they were facing. In front of a Celestial, they were all less than dust.
Not to mention, the Emperor owed great debts to the Saintess now.
Not only had she recommended his granddaughter to become the disciple of another Celestial, and established an alliance between them, she had now saved the life of his son too. But bigger than that was the life debt that his son owed Lin Mu.
And with the Saintess being his backer, he would be putting in all his effort and wealth into helping them.
"Even if I have to empty out the treasury and dig out all the Qi Source Veins in the empire, I"ll spend it all!" Emperor Feng thought to himself with determination.
He had been updated on all that had happened in the expedition and was utterly shocked by it. And upon being asked for a.s.sistance by his son, he didn"t hesitate at all. While the demands made by the Saintess were rather huge, it was still nothing to the resources of the empire as well as their manpower.
"All the materials and the area are ready?" The Saintess asked, opening her eyes.
"Yes. All two billion beast corpses, the vitality restoring herbs and the Grand Lake are ready for your use." Emperor Feng affirmed.
"Let"s start." The Saintess said with a hint of urgency.
~SHUA~
In the next moment, she disappeared from the palace hall, making all the others rush after her. After all, they knew exactly where she was going.
~WHOOSH~WHOOSH~WHOOSH~
They all arrived at the Grand Lake of the Imperial Capital. This was located at the side of Grand Palace and was one of the important locations of the Capital. Beside this was also where the Interworld Teleportation Array was located.
Normally, the access to the lake was highly limited and only the imperial family members and the people of the court could visit it, but right now, the security had been raised to another level.
Other than those personally permitted by the emperor, even the ministers weren"t allowed to visit it!
"Do you think it"ll work?" Crown Princess Shang asked nervously.
"It has to work." Crown Prince Feng Shun replied. "If it is a celestial doing, it definitely will work." He said, anxiety heavy on his face.
The same was the case for all the others, as they all wished for the same result, which was the betterment of Lin Mu.
Everything that was being done was for him, and a ma.s.sive amount of resources had been spent, along with a very special location.
"There she is," Qiao De said as he spotted the Saintess above the Grand Lake.
She glanced at the ma.s.sive piles of materials that had been placed on the sh.o.r.es of the Grand Lake and the small platform that floated at the center of it. The platform was made from clouds, and in the middle of it was a bed.
This was where Lin Mu had been resting all this time and was being protected by Little Shrubby.
The beast was in his full size and stood tall, his eyes darting around for the slightest moments. His fur was puffed up, and his claws were extended as if he was ready for a battle.
