Chapter 373: Getting Ready For The Tournament (1/2)

Lin Mu looked at the temple and had a complex expression on his face. From what he could understand, the temple itself wasn't involved in any way with the Gu Legion or the blood sacrifice. In fact, he was sure that everyone in the temple was unaware of what existed beneath it.

”What are we going to do about the blood sacrifice chamber beneath the temple?” Lin Mu questioned.

”I'll try to get some formation masters to analyze it. Though I'm afraid that it won't be easy and will take up to a month. Those formations were set up by at least a nascent soul realm cultivator, so it would be quite difficult for anyone below that level to break it.

I'll have to call some core condensation realm formation masters for this.” Wu Hei answered.

”Alright, I guess there really isn't much we can do except for waiting.” Lin Mu replied. ”Inform me when it's daytime. I'll spend my time cultivating till then.” He added.

”That's no problem. I'll inform you as soon as something happens.” Wu Hei assured.

Lin Mu then bid Wu Hei farewell before heading back to the courtyard. On the way, he did see more people coming to the city and among them, there was a core condensation realm cultivator too. Lin Mu hadn't totally probed the person, so as to not offend them.

But he was sure that this was one of the participants in the tournament. He looked at the symbol that was carved on the carriage he was sitting in and found it to be a bit unfamiliar. He jogged his memory and realized that it was none other than the Autumn Valley sect.

”Huh? I thought they were a small sect, when did they get a disciple in the core condensation realm…” Lin Mu wondered.

Pushing the matter to the back of his mind, Lin Mu reached his courtyard. The servant was already there prepared with lunch, and Lin Mu ate it before beginning his cultivation.

Lin Mu's dantian was currently at about 2200 drops of liquid spirit qi, and he wanted to use these four days to increase it as much as possible. He wasn't going to practice the nameless technique of the lost immortal and fully contribute his spirit qi to increasing his cultivation base.

Him eating the spirit food last night at the Alluring wisteria pavilion had also helped in increasing his overall stores of spirit qi. He would cultivate for about fifteen hours every day and then sleep to practice in the Sleepscape as well.

Even if he was confident of being able to defeat most of the people at the tournament, Lin Mu did not want to be complacent and make a mistake. Besides, his experiences had taught him that the future was unpredictable and anything surprising could happen without anyone knowing.

His progress in comprehending sword intent had also helped him a lot. Lin Mu felt as if his progress in learning the thousand armament blade Scripture had increased by a lot. He had already exceeded half of the weapons that were mentioned in the manual and was at the basic proficiency with the newer weapons.
