Lin Mu spent more than a day in the Library and indeed found a few new bits of information among the countless books.
They were hidden among rather mundane books and would easily be ignored if one had not read several other books that would allow one to grasp at their value.
The same was for Lin Mu, as it was information that would only make sense if one had read many other books and documents.
The information in question was actually about something Lin Mu had acquired not long ago: Star Shards.
''Looks like there have been others that encountered star shards but did not know what they were.'' Lin Mu thought as he read a book that was basically the diary of a cultivator.
The cultivator in question was a member of the Serene ss Valley a longtime ago, and wasn''t of a high rank. The said person had encountered a Star Shard several thousand years ago in another world.
He didn''t know what it was, but the way he described the object confirmed that it was a Star Shard to Lin Mu.
''A Star Shard that has the pure Yang proprieties of a Star… Makes sense why the Serene ss Valley member would have been interested in it considering they have no one that can use the Yang Dao here.'' Lin Mu thought to himself.
Having the recent experience, he knew anyone would want to acquire an item like the Star Shard that was filled with Yang properties.
Even if it could not be used directly, it was still good enough for one to study it and understand more about the Yang Dao and its characteristics.
The person wanted to get the Yang Star Shard for himself, but couldn''t do so because of being too weak. The Star Shard was taken away by other experts of a superior cultivation base.
He didn''t know what object it was and simply considered a natural treasure.
The regretsted a long time, and even made it to this diary which had been kept in the lowest section of the Library. Since it was just some of the experiences of a n members, it didn''t have too high of a value.
And as such, it was kept in an easily essible section. Though at the same time, this would have made it easy to miss.
"It was good that I decided to do a final sweep." Lin Mu muttered to himself, before walking out of the library.
Being the lowest section, it was already close to the exit, and as such, it was easy for him to leave.
''I should head to Head Elder Heng. He did want to give me something.'' Lin Mu thought to himself and made his way to the Main hall of the Shuijing hall.
There, he encountered none other than Shuijing Mingzhu and Shuijing Ju. They looked like they had been anticipating Lin Mu''s arrival as their faces brightened upon seeing him.
"Wee, Daoist Mu Lin!" The two greeted him.
"Hello." Lin Mu replied taking a look at the hall that was empty except for the two. "Is Head Elder Heng not here?" He questioned.
"Great Grandfather has asked us to wait here for you." Shuijing Mingzhu replied. Published by N?v''elD/rama.Org.
"Yeah, he said that you''d being and to wait a bit more until he gets things ready for you." Shuijing Ju added.
"Oh? What is he preparing?" Lin Mu was curious now.
"I don''t know either. But I''m sad that you decided to leave without telling us, Daoist Mu Lin." Shuijing Mingzhu said while pouting.
"Indeed. I had hoped we would have more chances to mingle." Shuijing Ju added.
"Ah, it isn''t like that." Lin Mu shook his head. "I was informed that both of you were busy with work. With Shuijing Ju working at the wall and Shuijing Mingzhu studying the new applications from the creation of the sh Cleave Axe, I did not wish to disturb you." He exined.
"Still…" Shuijing Mingzhu was a bit sad.
~Creak~
It was at this point that the door to the hall opened again, and the Head Elder appeared.
"Sorry for making you wait." Head Elder Heng responded. "But I had to do a little work to get these ready." He added.
"I don''t mind." Lin Mu shook his head. "But what were you preparing?" He asked, feeling curious.
"These," Head Elder Heng said before withdrawing a box from his Spatial Storage tool.
The box was about a meter long and half as wide.
"I believe these wille in handy." The Head Elder stated before opening the box.
~shua~
When he opened the box, a mix of Qi could be felting from it.
"Oh?" Lin Mu was intrigued and took a closer look, using his Immortal sense to check.
The box was filled to the brim with crystals that were of red, blue, and green colors. It didn''t take much for Lin Mu to recognize them.
"Aren''t these… Qi Igniter Crystals?" Lin Mu questioned.
"Indeed," Head Elder Heng answered. "Since you do not have advanced Qi me of your own, these wille in handy for you. The Red ones are the same ones I used, while the Blue and greens are of a better quality. With them you should be able to make immortal alchemical pills in a pinch." He borated.
"This…" Lin Mu hadn''t expected that the Head Elder would take his words to heart back then and prepare this. "Thank you Head Elder. These will indeede in handy." He said with gratitude.
"Haha,e on take them." Head Elder Heng said with augh. "I hope that the gift will keep us in your mind."
"It sure will." Lin Mu said with a smile, storing the box away.
"We have gifts too!" Shuijing Mingzhu suddenly chimed in before taking out some things. "I… I made some talismans for you to use."
"And I got you some books I obtained from outside the valley. I hope that you like them." Shuijing Ju added.
