Chapter 2086 Pure Petrichor Cave Milk


    Lin Mu gazed at the Pure Petrichor Cave Milk and realized that there was a massive amount present here.


    "How long has this been collecting?" Lin Mu wondered to himself. "Even a small vial of this would be enough to sell for a few thousand high grade Immortal stones." He muttered.


    The reason why the Pure Petrichor Cave Milk was so valuable was the fact that it had the simple property of purifying.


    Or more urately when it was used in the process of alchemy, it could improve the quality of the end product. Its properties also allowed the toxins of the ingredients that were used in the process to be reduced, resulting in a superior pill.


    If an alchemist at some Pure Petrichor Cave Milk, they could elevate the alchemist pill they were making to the next level merely by adding a few drops to it. Of course, using this for just some normal alchemical pill was an incredible waste, and most alchemist only used it when they were making a pill that was at the limit of their abilities. That way, they had a better chance of seeding and improving their skills after studying the pill at the end.


    Many alchemists even umted arge amount of Pure Petrichor Cave Milk and used it when it was time for them to advance to the next rank and make a new pill. That way, they could repeat the process as many times as they could, with the hopes of being sessful.


    As such, Pure Petrichor Cave Milk was something that was readily sold and always in demand. And due to the fact that not much of it could be farmed steadily, its value fluctuated greatly depending on the supply avable.


    There was also the fact that it was a substance that was easily sabotaged if the conditions for its creation were harmed in the slightest.


    Which was why when most people ended up finding the Pure Petrichor Cave Milk, they could note to obtain more of itter. They usually damaged the ce when they stumbled onto it, thereby removing the specific conditions that allowed the creation of the Pure Petrichor Cave Milk.


    It was the same case here, as Lin Mu had only found this ce due to Xiao Yang''s sense of smell. And with how deep it was underground, they would have lost the entire pool if they tried to dig it normally. Thus, there was a high chance that other than him, there was no one else that could have even managed to obtain it.


    ''I still need to get Lady Kang here first.'' Lin Mu didn''t think it was good to take it all himself right now, as it would not be a fair choice. ''Though how am I supposed to get her down here? This ce doesn''t seem like it''ll hold up with a direct tunnel from the top.'' He thought.


    His immortal sense scanned the ce for a bit before Lin Mu finally thought of a solution.


    "Hmm… that''ll work. Though it''ll take some effort." He muttered as Lin Mu moved towards the thickest part of the cave.


    It was one of the bordering walls, and was mostlyposed of solid rock with somepressed soil and other minerals mixed in it.


    Lin Mu ced his hand on it and checked it to ensure that it''ll hold up.


    ~thud~ thud~


    He tapped on it lightly, judging its density.


    "Hmm… This should be stable enough." Lin Mu judged. "At least more stable than the ceiling itself." He reckoned.


    With that done, Lin Mu looked at the wall and used his Immortal sense to plot out a rough n. He checked if there were any ws and empty cavities in the wall that could lead to a full copse and learned that other than some minor cracks, the earth was mostly stable.


    "Time to get to work." Lin Mu muttered and spoke, "Meld." ~SHUA~


    Spatial Fluctuation spread in the area as Lin Mu targeted a specific area in front of him. His hand was extended towards it before he made a grasping motion.


    ~Creak~


    In the next moment, a perfectly cylindrical chunk of section was cut out of the wall in front of him!


    It was about two meters in diameter and ten meters long, going straight into the wall. Lin Mu had checked most of the wall in front of him and learned where the ws and cracks were present. Thus, to avoid any chances of copse, he created a tunnel that would go past them.


    ''Doors done, now to make the actual tunnel.'' Lin Mu thought and stored the chunk of cylindrical rock in the ring.


    Then he entered the hole and reached its end before looking up. His immortal sense plotted out the path that he was to take, before Lin Mu used Meld again.


    ~shua~


    Spatial Fluctuations spread in the area before Lin Mu cut apart another part of the earth. It was also a cylindrical chunk but was just three meters long, which Lin Mu quickly stored in the ring so that he could move upwards. And after doing that, he took a pause to ensure that everything was fine.


    "Hmm… no tremors… seems stable enough." He reckoned and ced his hand on the rock above him again.


    ~shua~


    Another cylindrical chunk of rock was cut out with Meld, which Lin Mu stored into the ring and moved upwards.


    He repeated this and continued to cut an equal length of such cylindrical portions as he made his way up to the surface.


    Even with Lin Mu''s speed, it took him a little over an hour to finish this, as he couldn''t just go straight up. He had to go deeper from time to time, to avoid some of the cracks and fissures that appeared above him. Content ? provided by N?velDrama.Org.


    He wanted to avoid any chance of a copse, thus went for the cautious option.


    Thus, the end path ended up being quite non-linear. If one was able to look through the solid wall, they would realize that it was almost zigzagging through the solid wall. But it perfectly avoided any cracks and other unstable parts of the earth, preventing it from copsing.


    ~shua~


    The disappearance of a chunk of earth was easily felt by Lady Kang as she looked in a particr direction. It was all still within the limits of her Immortal sense, thus she discovered it quickly.


    "Hmm?" She was also alert for any danger, thus picked up on it immediately. ''Wait… Spatial Fluctuations?'' She sensed next, making her think of something else.


    Once she knew that there were Spatial Fluctuations involved, she knew who was behind it.


    ~whoosh~


    And sure enough, once Lin Mu flew out of the hole, her guess was confirmed.


    "Took a different path than thought." Lady Kang spoke once Lin Mu flew over to her.


    "Ah yes, couldn''t dig straight through or the ce would copse." Lin Mu replied. "I wanted you to get a look at the ce yourself before I decided to do anything with it." He added.


    "Found something good?" Lady Kang asked, feeling interested.


    "Very good." Lin Mu nodded. "Alright, let''s go." Lady Kang nodded.


    But before she could, Lin Mu interrupted her.


    "Wait a minute, let me call Xiao Yin back." Lin Mu said, thinking of something.


    He quickly sent the message to the snake before speaking to Little Shrubby, who had been waiting on the surface with Lady Kang. "Go get Xiao Yin." He stated.


    "On it!" Little Shrubby replied with a growl, and turned into a red blur.


    Lady Kang looked at Lin Mu, wondering why he had done this.


    "We don''t know what would happen once we get the stuff below. You know what these ces can be like… things change quickly and traps are everywhere. Especially considering there are no normal formation arrays present here, we could very well be triggering something." Lin Mu exined.


    "That is indeed a possibility." Lady Kang nodded in agreement.


    Such caution was something she would take too, and she waited for a bit until Little Shrubby returned with Xiao Yin on his back. The ck snake peeked out from Little Shrubby''s dense fur and spoke.


    ~hiss~


    She greeted Lin Mu before conveying something that Lady Kang didn''t understand.


    "Oh? You found something too?" Lin Mu raised a brow. "Looks like we have our next location decided." He said.


    "That was faster than I thought." Lady Kang replied. "What is it, though?" she questioned.


    "Some crystals this time." Lin Mu answered. "We''ll check them outter." He said before sending the three beasts to the Sleepscape. Lin Mu didn''t know what would be happening, thus reckoned it was best to keep them there. That way, there was no chance they would be separated.


    ~Whoosh~


    With that done, the duo flew down the tunnel that Lin Mu had made and finally reached the cave below. Inside, Lady Kang smelled the faint scent in the air before being guided to the pool by Lin Mu.
