Chapter 1290: Elder Niji''s Dao Embryo


    Lin Mu felt pleased upon hearing the voice.


    "It''s me Lin Mu!" he said in the Haima Tribe''snguage.


    "Noble Lin Mu!?" The Haima tribe member that was patrolling the tunnels was surprised.


    This tunnel was properly illuminated and the Haima tribe was also carrying a torch with him.


    "How are you here? Didn''t you go out from the surface?" the Haima felt confused.


    "It''s a long story." Lin Mu shook his head. "We should first head back to the Tribe." He suggested.


    "Alright. Please follow me. I''ll take you back." The Haima tribe member replied.


    "Where are we, though? This doesn''t seem to be the normal tunnel routes." Lin Mu asked, feeling curious.


    "We are in the farthest tunnels of the tribe. No one reallyes here after the Chasm Beasts dug in once. While we killed them back then, we still avoid this area. Plus, there isn''t really a use being here." The Haima member replied.


    "Why dig this far, then?" Lin Mu questioned next.


    "There was a mineral ore vein nearby. That was the reason why this area was further excavated. We wanted to see if there was more to mine here, but we didn''t get anything. Only the first ore vein we found was valuable enough to mine.


    After that was depleted, this area became useless." The Haima Tribe member answered.


    "I see…" Lin Mu nodded his head. ''Since it''s one of the farthest tunnels of the tribe, it should still be fine.''


    The two of them traveled for about half an hour beforeing across more Haima members.


    "Noble Lin Mu! It''s Noble Lin Mu!" the Haima members shouted upon seeing Lin Mu appear from one of the tunnels.


    The shout attracted everyone''s attention, and now Lin Mu had over a thousand people staring at him.


    "Hello!" Lin Mu waved his hand, finding himself in one of the caves where they grew Stone Flesh Mushrooms.


    A few members approached them and asked the Haima, who had brought Lin Mu some questions. They were wondering why Lin Mu was here too.


    "I''ll head on to meet Elder Niji first, need to tell him some important things." Lin Mu stated, not wanting to talk to them right now.


    There were a lot of questions in Lin Mu''s mind, which he hoped Elder Niji might be able to shed light on.


    ''They also need to know the source of the Chasm Beasts.'' Lin Mu thought.


    He ran through the halls and reached the main area of the tribe in just five minutes. From there, a single leap was all it took for him to reach Elder Niji''s residence.


    Lin Mu''s spirit sense felt the energy fluctuations in the air, making him realize something.


    ;


    "He broke through again?" Lin Mu raised his brows.


    ~CREAK~


    The door of the residence opened without Lin Mu having to do anything.


    "Wee back, Noble Lin Mu." Elder Niji had a smile on his face.


    "I see that you''ve had some progress." Lin Mu said, trying to estimate the man''s cultivation base now.


    "I have indeed…" Elder Niji nodded his head.


    ~SHUA~


    He waved his hand, and a small sphere flew out of his chest. The sphere was light blue in color and had wave like patterns on it. This was none other than Elder Niji''s Dao Shell.


    But what was surprising was the object that was present inside it.


    "You formed a Dao Embryo?" Lin Mu noticed the small rhombus shaped object inside.


    "I did indeed. Justst week." Elder Niji nodded his head.


    This was faster than Lin Mu had originally expected. While he knew they would adjust to the spirit Qi soon enough, actually forming a Dao Embryo was an entirely different matter. After all, one needed to sense andprehend the Dao Traces to make one.

    Lin Mu had left the Tribe about two months ago, thus Elder Niji''s progress was quite good.


    ''The workers in the farm also seemed to be at the Nascent soul realm, now that I think of it…'' he recalled.


    Lin Mu nced at the Dao Shell and the Dao Embryo within it, trying to figure out just what it was.


    "My Dao Embryo is called the Tide Scale." Elder Niji spoke, guessing Lin Mu''s thoughts urately.


    "Tide Scale?" Lin Mu was confused. "Tide as in a water tide?" he asked.


    "Yes… My Dao Embryo came from the Dao Trace of Water." Elder Niji confirmed.


    "The Dao Trace of water?" Lin Mu found this rather unexpected.


    "How did you develop something like this? It doesn''t make sense… you haven''t even seen a sea or anyrge water body." Lin Mu questioned.


    "I… don''t know either. I just had an epiphany out of nowhere and by the time I came out of that state, I already had the Dao Embryo." Elder Niji answered.


    "Huh…" Lin Mu knew this wasn''t something normal. ''If he had enlightenment and the Dao Embryo formed automatically, then… isn''t this an innate Dao Trace?'' he reckoned.


    The Haima Tribe had lived in thend of exile for a long time. Thus, most of them never even heard of a sea, not to mention see anyrge water body. While they did indeed see water, as there was enough of it underground, it was still unexpected.


    After all, usually one would only form a Dao Embryo rted to the things one had experience.


    "Also," Elder Niji wasn''t d


    one yet.


    ~SPLASH~


    He waved his hand and spirit Qi rose from his body. It turned corporeal before taking on a blue shade. The spirit Qi then flowed forward, turning into water!


    "I can make water now." Elder Niji stated.


    "This is impressive…" Lin Mu started to think of how this could be made use of.


    "How far does your ability go? Can you also manipte water?" he asked.


    "Of course. Creating it is the hard part. If there is already some water present, I can control it like a limb." Elder Niji waved his hand once more and three streams of water came out of the house.
