Chapter 1296: Four New Humans Arrive

With the ability to use spirit sense, the overall strength of the Haima tribe had risen more. After all, spirit sense was a very important part of one’s abilities. Without it a cultivator might as well be blind.

Oftentimes, they would detect an attack with their spirit sense first rather than their eyes or other senses. Plus, it allowed them to scan a vast area all at once, which could not be done with just eyes.

It was easily one of the best methods of qualitatively increasing one’s strength.

“This is good. You’ve done well.” Lin Mu couldn’t help but praise them..

“Thank you n.o.ble Lin Mu. It is all due to your initial guidance.” Elder Niji replied.

“The juniors of the tribe are quickly learning this too. Since they don’t need to be at a specific realm to learn it, we are intending to have them learn it from the very start.” Head Warrior Kulo stated.

“Of course. The earlier they learn the better. Just refining spirit sense isn’t enough either, one needs to adapt to it and get proficient in its use. That is something that can only come after time.” Lin Mu agreed.

“Alright, we’ll do that then.” Head Warrior Kulo spoke.

Lin Mu continued to look though the jade slips and learned a few interesting bits of information too, like the fact that a few more humans had been seen far from the tribe..

“Oh? More humans arrived? Are you sure they aren’t the ones that Huyun Chuan is looking for?” Lin Mu asked.

“No, they are different from the appearance Huyun Chuan said. They area also a lot weaker, none of them are immortals.” Elder Niji replied.

“I see… still, it would be better if we go meet them.” Lin Mu stated.

“Well… we tried to do that. From the four humans that appeared, two of them ran away thinking of danger and ended up coming across Chasm Beasts that killed them in an instant.” Elder Niji said with a wry smile.

“Ah… shame.” Lin Mu couldn’t blame them either.

“As for the last two, they too tried to run but our warriors eventually caught up with them. This ended up in a battle, and no matter how much we tried to calm them down, they simply didn’t listen.” Elder Niji explained.

“Then… are they dead too?” Lin Mu questioned. “Did the warriors kill them?”

“No, of course not. Rather than be forced to kill them, we let them leave.” Elder Niji answered.

~phew~

“That’s better.” Lin Mu nodded his head. “Do we have their location?”

“Yes, we have been keeping tabs on them. A few scouts are in charge of observing them from the distance and also killing any Chasm Beasts that get close to them.” Elder Niji answered. “So far there haven’t been any strong chasm Beasts that would threaten us or them.” He added.

“Alright, guess I’ll go take a look. We need all the information we can get about the outside world. Just one person isn’t enough.” Lin Mu spoke.

“Do you need someone to guide you there?” Elder Niji questioned.

“Won’t be needed. I can get there on my own.” Lin Mu answered. “Besides, I may as well take the twins to feed.”

Thinking of the twins, Lin Mu wondered if they’ll wake up if he called for them. They seemed to be rather full after the large meal they had before and weren’t even affected by Lin Mu’s breakthrough.

Leaving the elder’s residence, Lin Mu headed back to his own.

“Xiao Yin, Xiao Yang, let’s go get you some more food.” Lin Mu called out.

He waited for five seconds, but the two snakes didn’t wake up at all.

~huu~

“Guess I’ll just keep them with me.” Lin Mu picked up the two infant snakes and put them in his robes.

It was better to keep them with him while they were sleeping, rather than to let them wreak havoc upon waking up and not seeing him.

Appearing on top of the mountain above the Haima Tribe, he got to take a look at its new form.

“d.a.m.n, it increased a lot more than before.” Lin Mu’s eyes scanned it all.

On one side of the mountain, he could also see the figures of the Haima warriors practicing. Due to how large it had become, they had to go farther to practice now.

“Their practice seems to be going well…” Lin Mu took a quick glance before leaping away

~THUD~

~SHUA~

His body soared across the air, traveling faster than before.

‘Hmm, my strength has increased. It isn’t as much as body cultivation, but it’s still good.’ Lin Mu discovered.

Speaking of body cultivation, Lin Mu didn’t forget that he still had to further it.

‘The Wood elemental spirit apples should have grown back in this time.’ Lin Mu decided to consume them after returning.

He continued to leap and traversed large tracts of land. His destination wasn’t as far as his last expedition, but it was in a different direction.

“Its good that they ran in this direction, at least they won’t come across as many chasm Beasts.” Lin Mu muttered.

The two humans had gone opposite to the location of the broken Chasm, which would help them somewhat.

‘Though the water sources are also negligible in that direction… most of the water reservoirs are located near the Broken Chasm.’ Lin Mu also recalled.

While they were cultivators too, there was a limit to how long even they could live without water.

“Hmm, Elder Niji said the two of them were roughly at the Dao Sh.e.l.l realm and arrived here about a month ago. It shouldn’t be a problem for them to live a couple more months without water.” Lin Mu estimated. “Of course that is if they are not injured or under distress…”

Hours pa.s.sed like this, and about a day later, Lin Mu finally came across the location where the humans were supposedly situated.

“n.o.ble Lin Mu?” The Haima Scouts in charge of observing the humans were surprised to see him here.
