Chapter 493 - Reaching The Tri Cauldron Peony Sect



Lin Mu's eyes were closed as he was focused on refining his spirit sense further. It had been twelve hours since he had left the site of the bandit camps and was on his way to the Tri cauldron peony sect.

Technically he was already inside the sect as he had felt the border of formation at a certain point. This was the formation that demarcated the territory of the sect. Usually, this formation would have been hidden to most people but due to Lin Mu's natural sensitivity, he was able to perceive it.

This formation was intended for the disciples of the sect as it was the range in which they could ask for help or in which the sect's other formations could work. Still, it wasn't like there were many people guarding it manually.

It wasn't in the main sect's territory and would take far too many people to guard it. There wasn't anything of much value in this area either thus it didn't make sense to guard it strictly either.

"Wait here, this should be far enough." Lin Mu suddenly spoke.

Little Shrubby slowed down as his paws dug into the soil. Lin Mu spread his spirit sense around and verified that there was no one here before nodding his head.

"You can wait here, though stay alert and hide if anyone comes. I'll call for you when needed. You can find me, right?" Lin Mu spoke.

"Yes! I can always tell where you are from the link and when we're close enough, I can pin point you with your scent." Little Shrubby replied.

"Good. We will have to act very quickly when the time comes." Lin Mu said before withdrawing a bunch of things.

There were alchemical pills and spirit stones in it, that he gave to little shrubby.

"Use these when needed." Lin Mu directed.

He couldn't risk losing little Shrubby at all. He had grown way too close to him, plus he felt like family to him now. The beast had been nothing but devoted to him and was but a child, too.

"Okay," Little Shrubby replied.

Lin Mu nodded his head and changed into the robes of the Tri cauldron peony sect that She Qing had given him. They were of the perfect size and dint him comfortably. He then hung the identity badge on his waist with the belt.

Now he looked like an inner court disciple of the Sect no matter which angle one looked at from.

"Hmm… just one more thing left…" Lin Mu muttered before sitting down cross legged.

He chanted the calming heart sutra, and slowly suppressed the fluctuations of vital energy coming from his body. Although Lin Mu's vital energy fluctuations were already quite hard to detect, he still didn't want to take a chance with it.

After all, there was a greater chance of finding a cultivator at the peak stage of the core condensation realm rather than one who was in the Five Treasures realm. Though he did not know if anyone would be able to tell or even know about that.

After all his vital energy fluctuation had been contained, Lin Mu started chanting the severing heart sutra and stilled his mind. Unlike vital energy, it was much easier for him to hide his spirit Qi fluctuations. His Xiantian physique contributed a lot to this and made it very adaptive for his spirit Qi.

Usually, the spirit Qi fluctuation happens due to the leakage of a small amount of spirit Qi due to the body being incompatible with spirit Qi. But the Xiantian physique took care of this part and made it highly conducive to the spirit Qi. Due to this, the spirit Qi would rather stay bound inside the body than spread outside into the air.

Lin Mu's spirit Qi fluctuations started falling and soon it was as if he was not a Peak stage core condensation realm cultivator but rather a peak Qi refining realm cultivator. This was more accurate for his standing as an Inner court disciple as those in the early stage core condensation realm would be core disciples of the sect, while those at the mid stage and the late stage were junior elders.

The disciples that managed to reach the peak stage of the core condensation realm would be directly promoted to the position of elders while the ones who managed to reach the Nascent Soul realm would become peak masters.

The Tri Cauldron peony sect had three peaks, which meant three peak masters who were all at the Nascent Soul realm. In total, there were four Nascent Soul realm cultivators in the sect, including the Sect patriarch who had the highest cultivation base being at pseudo Dao Shell realm.

Peak master Yi Deng occupied the pill peak, the sect patriarch occupied the main peak, while another female elder occupied the Herb Peak. The supreme elder was an exception to this and stayed in the forbidden area of the sect, only attending to matters of great importance. He was also the expert with the second highest cultivation base in the sect.

Though these were not the people that Lin Mu had been warned about. Rather the person he needed to be careful of was the Ancestor of the Tri Cauldron peony sect. Not even the sect patriarch or the Supreme elder knew if he was alive or not.

Wu Hei had been able to get the bare minimum information about him as Gu Yao had been looking for this ancestor too. But his location was hidden and unknown to anyone. This ancestor could be a problem for his plans and hence he was looking to either control him as well or get rid of him.

~Sigh~

"Time to head in…" Lin Mu muttered as he opened his eyes and looked up at the three peaks that were finally visible.

These three peaks had suddenly appeared as they had been hidden behind a concealment formation array. Before reaching this point it was as if there were only trees in the area, but now three mountain peaks each with a different symbol carved on them were visible.
