Lin Mu looked at the thousands of green wisp and wondered if each of them were the representation of an Evergreen Pir Bamboo.


    ''Considering how many trees area in a forest these aren''t many at all. Does the number of wisps also determine how effective the Litany of the Verdant Forests is?'' Lin Mu wondered.


    ~SHUA~


    But while he was thinking this, the green wisps suddenly started to spin. They ran around Lin Mu in circles, their intentions unknown.


    "What are they doing?" Lin Mu wondered as the green wisps continued to move faster and faster.


    Soon enough the green wisps formed green rings around Lin Mu due to their revolutions. The number of rings was hard to estimate, as they seemed to be changing every second. Ccontent ? exclusive by N?/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.


    Sometimes they numbered in the thousand, while sometimes they were in the tens. Their sizes also changed, as the wisps grew closer and farther from time to time.


    When the wisps were closer their rings merged to together and turned from a millimeter thin ring to a band several inches in thickness. Lin Mu didn''t feel anything wrong from the rings and neither did he feel any danger, as such he just let it happen.


    ~HONGLONG~


    And after a minute or so the revolving green wisps seem to have disappeared, but not before leaving the rings behind. These rings surrounded Lin Mu and floated without any issue.


    They continued to change their shape and thickness even when the Green wisps were gone.


    Most of the rings would merge together, turning into threerge bands that surrounded Lin Mu. Small gaps were left between these rings, which did not seem to be filled even when the rings turned into smaller ones.


    "Is this the effect of the Litany Of the Verdant forests?" Lin Mu couldn''t help but wonder.


    After all, the things that had happened so far seemed to be urring on their own for the most part. Lin Mu didn''t particrly control them or willed them to happen.


    ''Litany of the Verdant Forests sure is a strange technique. It works on its own when it wants to or simply does nothing even if one puts in a lot of effort.'' Lin Mu thought to himself.


    ~SHUA~


    Shortly after, Lin Mu saw the rings disappearing while the world around him turned blurry again. It was like a frosted ss dome had been put back on him.


    ''Is this the limit?'' Lin Mu had this as hisst thought before he felt himself losing his consciousness.


    When he came to, Lin Mu found his vision to be blurry again.


    "I''m back?" Lin Mu could feel that he was now in his normal body.


    The familiar flow of Qi within his body, the thrumming of Dao Embryos with in his Dantian and the bubbling of Vitality within his muscles. It had all returned, confirming for Lin Mu that he was back in the real world.


    His vision also cleared up in a few moments and saw the Bamboo Pavilion.


    He was still sitting in the same ce, but the scenery around him had changed quite a bit. Hundreds of Evergreen Pir Bamboos had grown in ce that Lin Mu had ced the bamboo pavilion in.


    But unlike thest time, they didn''t bend around the pavilion. Instead, they actually put distance between the pavilion and themselves.


    Lin Mu estimated that an empty circle of around a meter had been formed and the pavilion was left alone. The six ponds around the bamboo pavilion were also intact, though there were several Bamboo leaves floating in it now,


    "Guess that was it." Lin Mu muttered while his eyes continued to wonder.


    Since the Litany of the Verdant Forests had worked, Lin Mu wondered if the forest itself had experienced any changes. He couldn''t tell anything that had changed though, as the Evergreen Pir Bamboos around him had returned to their normal state.


    "Hmm… whatever it was, it worked in my favor. I at least have the first stage of the techniquepleted. All that''s left is to check it.'' Lin Mu thought and used his immortal sense to nce in his Dantian.


    Upon doing so, the first thing he noticed was the massive sea of Qi that had different colored spots from time to time. These were none other than the other elemental immortal Qis that Lin Mu had absorbed so far.


    Above this sea floated his Nascent soul, which sat in silence.


    The Nascent soul had two Dao Embryos around him while the third spatial Dao Embryo stayed hidden.


    ''Hmmm, the Litany of the Verdant Forests did not affect my Nascent soul. There don''t seem to be any additional protections here… then is it attacked to my True Soul?'' Lin Mu wondered.


    But taking a look at his True soul was not an easy thing.


    ~SHUA~


    Just as he thought this though, it was as if he had fulfilled a condition and a string of information appeared in his mind.


    ''I can look at it in my mind?'' Lin Mu instantly grasped.


    ~SHUA~


    With that said, he entered his mind and saw the True Soul. Or rather it was just the representation of his soul.


    But the True Souls as not alone. Just like earlier, it was surrounded in green bands that changed shape and kept on spinning.


    "Since the rings are surrounding my True Soul, they are likely to be the product of the Litany of the Verdant Forests." Lin Mu reckoned.


    Of course, controlling this new power was going to take thin a while, if that was even possible. To Lin Mu, this seemed like a long term investment, but he knew the defenses of his soul had certainly progressed now.


    With the pseudo-ring barrier around Lin Mu''s True soul, it would now be protected against the soul attacks. He didn''t know how effective it would be, but was quite hopeful for the future.


    "Little or not, it is still a start and will only continue to grow." Lin Mu said to himself.
