Walker Of The Worlds Chapter 2424 Completing Cores

Chapter 2424  Completing Cores

Lin Mu's time spent in Omnicore Ascendancy was shorter than he had expected it to be.

"I'm out of everything…" Lin Mu muttered to himself, a slightly listless expression on his face.

"Well, you did spend two years consuming them nonstop." Xukong replied with a nonexistent wry smile. "I wouldn't be surprised if they ended earlier." He said honestly.

~Sigh~

"I suppose its better than nothing." Lin Mu replied as he glanced within his body.

Within him, Eight small cores were now floating in different locations.

The core at the very top was the lightning core located in the center of his brain. It hadn't increased in size much as compared to before, but at least it was a proper sphere now. Though it was still very tiny and would be hard for a mortal to see with their naked eyes.

It was the core that Lin Mu had the least amount of progress due to the lack of materials. Then next core after it was the Metal Core which was located between Lin Mu's lungs. It had grown considerably and was now the size of an individual sea grape.

The core had technically finished its formation and as such, Lin Mu would start to get effects from it. But since he wasn't in the actual control of his body right now, he was yet to feel them.

'I suppose I'll have to truly 'wake up' to feel its effects.' Lin Mu reckoned.

The core below it was the Wind Core located in his Diaphragm which had also not grown much. It was about the same size as the Lightning Core too and had managed to take a spherical form.

Then there was the Fire Core located in his heart that had grown almost as much as the Metal Core. It was just slightly smaller than it and was also the size of a Sea Grape.

The best progress happened in the next two cores though which were the Earth Core in Lin Mu's spleen and the Wood Core in his liver.

Both had managed to grow twice as big as a Sea Grape!

Earth Core was already expected by Lin Mu, but he was looking forward to the effects of the Wood Core. After all, it was the first core that belonged to an element he didn't have an affinity too.

'The Omnicore Ascendancy is supposed to grant me an affinity for the specific element when the core is completed. The Wood Core might not be big, but it is still 'complete' as such I should have an affinity to wood too.' Lin Mu thought about it. 'Trying right now does nothing.' He attempted it but felt no different.

He could only attribute this to the dissociation between his body and his consciousness. Thus, while he was cultivating the cores, it would still need him to a.s.sume control of his body and awaken in the real world.

"I suppose this is a dormant state of the cores." Lin Mu muttered to himself as he observed them. The final core, which was the Water Core in the middle of his kidneys, also didn't have much progress. Though it was still better than the lightning and wind cores, being half the size of the fire core.

With that, Lin Mu had managed to at least complete the cores to a basic level, thereby bringing himself to the bottom line of the Omnicore Ascendancy Technique.

"What do I do next?" Lin Mu muttered to himself and went through his list of tasks.

After looking at them, he came to a stop on improving his formations.

~SHUA~

Lin Mu directly summoned his Rune Shaping Brush and began to draw formations in the air. The method of improving on formations was rather straightforward as one simply needed to practice till they got better. Practice also improved one's comprehension after a while and the more Lin Mu did it, the better his speed would get.

There had been many runes, formations and arrays that Lin Mu had observed in the Spatial Plane, as well as others that he had learned from Daoist Chu and Ziran. He had also obtained a lot of records and books about them from them and from the Offering Hall.

As such, he had a lot of content to go through.

Lin Mu spent the next three years doing this, while occasionally taking breaks to play with the twins and Ashy. This helped refresh his mind and refocus. He also read the Memoirs of the Lost Immortal in between and learned more about the things he had done and experienced.

But eventually, Lin Mu felt like he was reaching a plateau with his formations too, thus decided to pause it and focus on something else. Xukong had advised him on this and told him that needlessly forcing improvement would only harm him too, and it was better to rotate between tasks so that his mind would perform better. This turned out to be the best, as a lot of the doubts that he had before with formations with spontaneously resolved when he was focused on other things.

He also managed to apply knowledge from different spheres of cultivation to formations, thereby improving it further.

The next two years were spent like this while Lin Mu switched between a lot of reading, revising his techniques and skills, as well as practicing formations on top of playing with his tamed beasts.

Year after year pa.s.sed, as Lin Mu's internal state was unknown to everyone other than those in the Sleepscape.

Back at the Capital of the Dao Wind Empire, a small gathering was currently taking place in the private palace of the Crown Prince.

There were guards posted everywhere in the palace, and even the entire city's security seemed to have been raised by several levels. Three individuals approached the Crown Prince's private palace but weren't stopped by the guards.

A mere look was all they needed to know: they were the Crown Prince's close companions and the Imperial Guests of the Dao Wind Imperial Court!
