Walker Of The Worlds - Chapter 789

The description that Kong Hutao had just given was far too similar to that of the oceanic world that Lin Mu knew of. He had already seen the remnant of the oceanic world and in the void and that combined with the other proofs he had seen, he was now sure that the two worlds definitely had something to do with each other.

"Hmm… that seems to be true. Perhaps there may have been a passage between the two worlds once upon a time. It could have been a natural one too. And considering how we have no information before the ten thousand years ago, it is safe to assume that there were more people that traveled to the oceanic world." Xukong replied.

"Seems like that senior. Perhaps I can get to know more about the history before the unification of the continents." Lin Mu said and looked at Kong Hutao.

"And what did these records tell more about the Great Reef turtles?" Lin Mu questioned.

"According to those records, the Great Reef turtles are massive beasts of great power. They live below the oceans and are the home of several aquatic beasts due to the corals that grow on their shells.

They can cause tsunamis that can wipe out entire countries if they are enraged as well. Their cultivation base is said to be very great and they can grow even more. They are perhaps one of the strongest beasts I know of." Kong Hutao answered.

"I see." Lin Mu replied, finding the information to be pretty similar to what he had.

'The characteristics of the Great Island Turtle and the Great Reef Turtle are pretty similar. No wonder Bao chose one as his mate. Though I wonder how that Great Reef Turtle made its way to the sinkhole.

Though its cultivation base might not have been that high considering how she died back then. If it really was that strong the cultivators would have all died.' Lin Mu thought to himself.

"Do you know the history before the invasion, senior Kong?" Lin Mu questioned.

"Unfortunately, I don't… or rather this portrait does not. There was only a limited amount of information I could add to it back then as my death was rather close and I still had a lot of things to set up.

I was lucky that our clan had a blank portrait like this. If not for this, I don't think I would have been able to set everything up." Kong Hutao answered.

"Huh? A blank portrait? This spirit painting was not made for you by a spirit painter?" Lin Mu questioned.

"No, it was one of the ancestral treasures that we've had for a long time. As for a spirit painter… what's that?" Kong Hutao replied.

Hearing this, Lin Mu was now confused. From what he had heard, a spirit painter needed to custom make the painting for the person. But it seemed to be far different from that in this case.

"Senior Xukong, what is this? Can there be a blank painting like that?" Lin Mu questioned.

"Hmm… that's hard to tell. I've heard of bloodline linked paintings in which every patriarch would leave a wisp of their soul. But this seemed to be a bit different than that. The process of making a spirit painting is said to be complex and for it to work with just anyone is even more difficult.

I don't know how this all happened, but it's likely that there is more to the Xiaofan world than we know. The history before ten thousand years is pretty much a mystery." Xukong answered.

Lin Mu nodded his head and knew that it was better to just learn about it later since it was not possible now. He knew that one day he would be able to unravel the secrets of the Xiaofan world.

Lin Mu and Kong Hutao talked for a while more and figured out some things.

"Now that you have the key you can begin the process of inheriting the entire sacred ground." Kong Hutao spoke.

"Alright senior. What should I do now?" Lin Mu asked.

Kong Hutao then went on to explain the steps that were needed for the process to be done. Lin Mu was basically supposed to take the key to the Formation Nexus and insert it into a specific place.

After that, he just needed to bind it with his spirit sense and blood before the process would be done.

"I'll get to it then." Lin Mu said and left to do it.

He reached the formation Nexus and quickly found the place where he was supposed to insert the key into.

"No wonder I did not see it before. There are simply too many of them." Lin Mu said.

There were pillars here in the hall where the formation nexus was located and on those pillars, there were hundreds of indents. This was where Lin Mu was supposed to insert the key. But the problem was that there were too many of them and they all looked the same.

If someone else found the key and came here, they wouldn't even know where to start with. Thankfully Kong Hutao had already informed Lin Mu of it and he quickly found the right one.

"The Ninth hole of the ninth pillar of the ninth ring." Lin Mu located the indent.

He took out the key from the ring and inserted it into the indent.

~SHUA~

The moment he did so, a wave of spirit Qi spread in the area and the entire formation nexus felt like it had just come alive.

Lin Mu could see several runes appearing all over the place and they were all operating in different ways.

~SHING~SHING~SHING~

The pillars started to move and most of them sank into the ground. Even the one with the key inserted into it did the same.

~RUMBLE~

The floor started to shake and move before a circular platform started to rise from the center of the hall.
