Chapter 1294: Hidden Details In The Dao Traces
Lin Mu could feel like a whole new world had opened up to him. He blinked several times and could see a new perspective around him.
“The Dao Traces of Earth are everywhere around me…” Lin Mu softly muttered.
All around Lin Mu, small specks of brown particles could be seen floating. They were rather different from the Earth Spirit Qi too, having a presence that gave one a feeling of firmness. Not just that, but when Lin Mu looked closer at the Dao Traces, he could see something more.
“Is that… a character?” Lin Mu’s eyes continued to focus on the Dao traces and soon recognized the tiny character that was written on them.
“No… they aren’t written on them. They are the same…” Lin Mu focused even more, finding that the character seemingly disappeared and turned into a single brown speck.
But when he observed it longer, the brown speck turned into the character. It was simr to how there were runes floating in the air when using formations and arrays.
The more Lin Mu observed the character the more details he found within it. The character itself seemed to be simple, but there were actually finer parts to it that were cleverly disguised.
‘The character itself is made out of several smaller characters…’ Lin Mu realized.
He spent two hours like this before he finally recognized one of the sub characters that made up the main character on the brown spec..
“Earth! That’s the Dao Script Character for Earth!” Lin Mu finally confirmed.
But this was merely the start of it all. While it seemed normal that the Dao Script letter for Earth would be within the Dao Trace, it was just one of them and there were more different characters hidden alongside it.
Three more hourster, Lin Mu recognized another character. “Stone…”
This time it was the Dao Script Character for Stone.
‘Of course, stone is also a form of earth and thus should be a part of it.’ Lin Mu thought.
Hours passed like this and Lin Mu continued to recognize more and more sub characters hidden within the brown specs of Dao Traces.
Earth…
Stone…
Mud…
Soil…
Boulder…
Marsh…
Mountain!
After seven sub characters, Lin Mu had reached a bottleneck.
“Why can’t I perceive more of them?” Lin Mu was confused.
Now that he tried to observe the sub characters, he found them turning blurry. While he could still read the seven sub characters from the Dao Script, he could not read more.
~huu~
Letting out a breath, Lin Mu decided to stop for now.
“I should rest and tryter… forcing won’t do me any good.” Lin Mu softly said to himself.
He lightly blinked, and the brown specks of Dao Traces that were floating around him all disappeared. It was as if they were never there.
“The Dao Comprehension Stage is truly a unique level of cultivation… No wonder progressing from here is hard for so many people. It is simply too vast…” Lin Mu reckoned.
At this point in cultivation, one wouldn’t absorb spirit Qi to further their cultivation base. Instead they would have toprehend the Dao Traces, until they reached a point of epiphany and broke thorough to the Immortal Ascension stage.
Of course for Lin Mu, now that he was in a high leveled Immortal world like the Rust Sky world, it shouldn’t be that difficult. He had after all formed a unique Dao Embryo and as per Huyun Chuan’s information should be able to breakthrough automatically.
He wouldn’t be like others who make use of Dao Treasures of Dao Essence crystals. And Neither would he be using an Ascension Spirit pill. His foundation was truly stable and should allow him to breakthrough directly at a certain point.
“Still… how do I reach that point? What is it that triggers a breakthrough to the Immortal realm?” Lin Mu wondered.
He knew that one needed toprehend Dao Traces, and seeing how he had found fine characters within the Dao Traces, Lin Mu reckoned it was something to do with that.
‘Even the documents and cultivation manuals from the sects of the Xiaofan world only describe the cultivation up to the Embryo Growth Stage of the Dao Treading realm. After that, the rest is up to the luck of the cultivator as well as theirprehension ability.’ Lin Mu continued to ponder.
But no matter how much he thought, there was clearly no path that seemed to be presenting to himself other than to continue learning more characters.
“Maybe a change will happen once I observe all the sub characters.” Lin Mu guessed. “Mmm, I’ll do that then.” He decided.
~SHUA~
At this moment though, Lin Mu felt a wave of spirit Qiing from the distance. Normally he wouldn’t feel it at this distance, but the breakthrough had made him a lot more sensitive than before.
“Oh? Someone is reaching the Dao Treading realm?” Lin Mu noticed.
He left his residence and jumped up to the roof. From there, it was easy for him to observe every corner of the Haima tribe.
“It’s on the outer gate of the tribe.” Lin Mu recognized.
The outer gate was where the main exit of the tribe was located and the people stationed around there were guards.
“Who could be breaking through there?” Lin Mu leaped in that direction.
His body soared though the air and quickly coveredrge distances with it. In just a few leaps, Lin Mu had already reached the outer gate.All text ? N?velD(r)a''ma.Org.
There he saw several Haima members standing around a person. Lin Mu nced at him and found him to be one of the members of the ‘elite’ guards that had trained with him once before.
“Warrior Midi is also having a breakthrough today. Seems like today is a very lucky day for our tribe.” The people standing around said while gazing at theirpanion.
No one had noticed Lin Mu who was standing on a building nearby though. He didn’t disturb them either, leaving after the Haima member had his breakthrough.
