~RUSTLE~RUSTLE~RUSTLE~


    Lin Mu arrived in the Sleepscape and heard the sound of leaves.


    They gently swayed and created a harmonious melody that made one want to sleep to its tune. Even Lin Mu felt tempted but knew that he had important work at hand.


    "Let''s get to it quickly." Lin Mu walked to the location where he had buried the first Immortal Source Vein.Exclusive ? material by N?(/v)elDrama.Org.


    He then took out the freshly mined Immortal Source Vein andid it on the ground. It was almost the same size as the first, but was a few percent bigger.


    It was one of the discoveries Lin Mu had made at the very end. Even if the second Immortal Stone mine was bigger than the first, the Source Vein didn''t differ that much. Which only proved how difficult it was for a source vein to grow and improve.


    Despite the second Immortal Stone mine being twenty percent bigger than the first, the size of the Source Vein was just four to five percent bigger. The growth between the Immortal stones and the source vein didn''t seem to be proportional.


    Lin Mu knew there were many factors that determined the size of a mine, and the topography of the area might be why the difference was present in the current case.


    The area where the first mine was mostly soil and loose rock, that was pressing upon the Immortal Stone mine. This created pressure on the mine as well as the Source Vein, preventing it from growing as freely.


    In the second case, the Grey te Ravines were made out of tough and durable Deep Bowel te. This had allow the second Immortal Stone mine to form with fewer issues. Of course, the toughness of the Deep Bowel te would make it so that the mine couldn''t expand fast, it still reduced the excess pressure from the weight of the ground.


    Additionally, the naturally forming fissures and gaps between the Deep Bowel te made it so that the Immortal Stones still had plenty of area to grow. Lin Mu even wondered if the concave structure of the gourd shaped ravine might be due to the Immortal Stone mine.


    It was likely that the shape had been influenced over time by the growing Immortal Stone crystal and it had turned the ravine into what it was today.


    "Come on… merge into it." Lin Mu willed the Sleepscape to ept.


    This time he felt like there was a little resistance as the Sleepscape wasn''t epting the Immortal Source vein right away.


    ''This doesn''t seem to be ''unwillingness'' on the Sleepscape''s part though… it''s more like it is full and I''m still asking it to eat.'' Lin Mu guessed.


    He had not known that there would be a limit to what he could imnt in the Sleepscape before this. But now he had a rough idea of it.


    ''Looks like even after the growth of the Sleepscape, there will be a limit to how many things I can imnt in it.'' Lin Mu understood.


    He had imnted not only the Violet Mystic Life Tree, but was now nting the second Immortal Source vein. While all of these were ultimately beneficial to the Sleepscape and its inhabitants, there were still limits on the ce.


    More specifically, the limit seemed to be linked with Lin Mu''s own cultivation base.


    After all, the main method of growing the size of the Sleepscape was for Lin Mu to increase his own cultivation base.


    The addition of the Violet Mystic Life tree along with the immortal essence crystal mine might have given a boost to the size of the Sleepscape due to their unique properties, but it had still not lifted its original limit.


    ''Come on… you can take it. Just a bit more…'' Lin Mu urged the Sleepscape to absorb the Immortal Source Vein.<novelnext></novelnext>


    A few minutester, Lin Mu''s attempt seemed to have seeded as the Sleepscape finally responded.


    ~RUMBLE~


    The ground shook, before the Source Vein Crystal started being absorbed. Lin Mu watched as the crystal disappeared into the ground five minutester.


    "This was certainly slower than the first one." Lin Mu muttered. "But for the effects…" he waited for the changes to happen.


    ~SHUA~


    And just as he had expected, Immortal Qi started to rise in the Sleepscape while its density increased as well.


    The nts in the Sleepscape started to greedily absorb the Immortal Qi too, with the Immortal Apple Tree directly ripening several of the Immortal apples and the Wood Spirit Tulip, directly growing another flower head.


    The Purple Sickle Amaranth didn''t show any new growth though, and only increased its production of Wood Immortal Qi instead.


    As for the Violet Mystic Life Tree, there was no change in it either.


    The tree was as silent as before, with a vitality that could rival entire kingdoms.


    The Yin Yang twin snakes were also enjoying it all and gently breathed the immortal Qi. Lin Mu walked around the Sleepscape, making sure that all the changes were noted by him. There was no saying what kind of new effects would take ce after all.


    He didn''t wish to be caught off guard, thus took the extra effort of checking all things. Lin Mu even went to the Formation Pavilion and ensured that the arrays were running properly and not in a havoc.


    Having done his little tour of the Sleepscape, Lin Mu returned to standing in front of the Immortal Apple tree. Though this time, the tree was covered with several Immortal Apples.


    "You certainly grew fast." Lin Mu couldn''t help but say.


    ~rustle~ rustle~


    The tree seemed to respond to Lin Mu''s words too, shaking its branches.


    "Oh? You want me to pluck all the apples?" Lin Mu understood the sentient tree''s intentions.


    ~RUSTLE~


    The tree shook one of its tender branches and lowered the main ones with fruits.


    Lin Mu quickly plucked all the ripe Immortal Apples and stored them away forter.


    "I wonder if the Saintess has ever tried immortal apples before…" Lin Mu wondered.
