Chapter 1914 Head Elder's Benefit
The Head Elder was clearly interested in the Dao Embryo and Shuijing Mingzhu had probably told him about it.
"I do, Head Elder." Lin Mu replied.
"Oh? May I see it?" The Head Elder asked. "As a clan specializing in formations, it isn't often that we see such Dao embryos. In fact, even in our clan, getting one is very rare." He revealed.
"Really? I thought it would be common." Lin Mu asked, feeling surprised.
"The path of formations is difficult. As such even our clan members struggle to create such an embryo. In fact, most of us do not create it as our first Dao Embryo." Head Elder revealed.
"So you all have two Dao Embryos?" Lin Mu questioned.
"Indeed." Head Elder nodded. "Since it is important to reach the immortal realm first, we let them form any Dao Embryo that is easy for them. But after they reach the immortal realm, they are to focus on the Formation Dao and then attempt to make a Dao Embryo." He explained.
"I see… That is very similar to what I've done." Lin Mu stated. "My first Dao embryo was from Earth." He said, not revealing that the Rune Shaping Brush wasn't actually his second, but his third Dao Embryo.
The Four Faceted Nebula was a Spatial Dao Embryo after all. And it being a unique one changed everything. It was something that would catch the attention of even the immortal court and above if it was revealed. Thankfully, due to its natural properties, it didn't even exist in his Dantian unless he summoned it. Xukong had already assured Lin Mu that even Transcendent Immortals and most celestials wouldn't be able to detect it. In fact, only the celestials who were specialized in the Spatial Dao would be able to sense it. But even then they wouldn't exactly be able to find it.
And so far, Lin Mu hadn't come across anyone else who had the Spatial Element. Sure there were many that used Spatial powers on some level, but it was through formations and other treasures. The only person he had even heard of being a Spatial expert was the current head of the Temple of the Four Guardian beasts. Other than that, Lin Mu hadn't encountered anyone else, which just showed how rare it was for someone to have the Spatial Element. Or rather, the same applied to all three primordial elements. Lin Mu had seen many with the four heavenly elements so far, especially in the Rust Sky world, thus they didn't seem as rare anymore.
"Ah yes, a Basal Elemental Dao embryo is the most common." Head Elder nodded. "I myself made a Wood Dao Embryo first before I actually made my Formation Dao Embryo." He revealed.
"I'd like to see yours as well, Head Elder." Lin Mu said, summoning his own Dao Embryo. After all, it wasn't every day one got to exchange such pointers.
~shua~ The Rune Shaping Brush appeared out of Lin Mu's Dantian and shone slightly.
Head Elder saw the Dao Embryo as well as the Dao Shell, his eyes going.
"You… turned the Dao Shell into an Inkstone?" He asked lightly.
"Yes." Lin Mu nodded.
A Brush and an Inkstone… Marvelous." Head elder said in a fascinated tone as he made circles around the Dao Embryo. "Using Qi as the ink, and the world as the paper, bringing forth a myriad of transformations…" The Head Elder muttered, a thousand thoughts going through his mind.
~HONG~
As if he had been struck by a moment of revelation, the Head Elder's eyes suddenly went wide and a strong energy fluctuation was felt.
"Dao Traces…" Lin Mu became alert and felt the area becoming rich with them.
~HUALA~
Then in the next moment, an object manifested in front of the Head Elder.
It looked like a small knife that was about five inches in size. It had a slender handle that looked to be made out of a deer horn, while fine runic marks could be seen on both the blade and the handle.
This was the Dao Embryo of the Head Elder and it was currently encased in the Dao Shell which was in the shape of a rectangular box.
It was a relatively simple looking Dao Shell, but it was nothing compared to Lin Mu's own Dao Shell which actually added functionality and amplified the abilities of the Dao Embryo.
Though looking at it now, Lin Mu could feel that the Dao Embryo was changing.
~SHUA~
The knife Dao Embryo rose out of the box and started to release the Dao Traces. Lin Mu could sense that they were getting stronger and stronger.
'Is he having a breakthrough? That can't be… his Dao Embryo is already at the Dao Comprehension stage…' Lin Mu thought to himself.
"Quick, inform the elders." Shuijing Ju spoke. "The elder is having a moment of enlightenment!" "Yes!" Shuijing Mingzhu took out a jade slip and sent out a message.
"Daoist Mu Lin, can we ask you to take care of the elderly for the time being. You are the most qualified here." Shuijing Ju requested.
"Sure…" Lin Mu didn't think it would be much of an issue. After all, they were safe in the main hall of a clan while all the members were present there. There couldn't be a better place for this to happen.
Still, Lin Mu took it seriously and extended his Immortal sense all over the clan, sensing the presence of everyone. ~SHUA~
The Head Elder's comprehension continued and his Dao Embryo began to change. The Dao Traces became visible and looked like flickering runes in the air. These were none other than the Formation Dao Traces!
Lin Mu had seen them before, but this was the first time he had found them to be this concentrated.
'Looks like the other elders are here.' Lin Mu sensed the elders controlling the formations of the hall and guarding it. But they didn't enter so as to not disturb them inside.
~HONGLONG~
It was at this moment that a change happened. From all the Dao Traces, something new appeared.
"Dao Insights!" Lin Mu's eyes went wide.
