Walker Of The Worlds

Having understood the properties of the base spirit herbs, Lin Mu was now feeling a bit better about the plant.

'At least I might be able to use it for cultivating if the need so arose.' Lin Mu thought to himself.

"I think it is now time for a very important thing." Elder Pigu spoke.

"What is it, Elder Pigu?" Lin Mu questioned.

"The name for this new spirit herb, of course. You were the one that captured it thus you have the right to name it." Elder Pigu answered.

Lin Mu raised his brow upon hearing this and wondered what he should name it.

"Once you name it, I'll make an official record of the spirit herb. Though for the special properties of the spirit herb, you will have to check for that. Or if you want to, I can do it for you too, but it would mean leaving the spirit herb with me." Elder Pigu added.

"I'm sure brother Lin Mu would prefer to do it on his own. This is a unique opportunity that doesn't come that often." Hua Langya chimed in.

"Hmm, yeah. I'll learn more about it myself." Lin Mu agreed since he needed to try planting this spirit herb in the Sleepscape.

"That's fine. Though have you decided on a name Senior Lin Mu?" Elder Pigu questioned.

Lin Mu responded with a little nod.

"I'll name it, Purple Sickle Amaranth. Keeping it simple will be the best and allow us to relate it with the basal spirit herb it was formed from." Lin Mu stated.

"That's a good name!" Elder Pigu agreed.

"Great Choice brother Lin Mu." Hua Langya agreed as well.

"It is decided, then. This spirit herb shall now be known as the Purple Sickle Amaranth and Senior Lin Mu's name will go down in history as the person who obtained and named it!" Elder Pigu declared.

After this was done, Elder Pigu took some notes about the spirit herb and then let Lin Mu leave. They had to prepare for the arrival of the Patriarch as well and thus they were busy.

Lin Mu quickly returned to the courtyard he was assigned and lied down to sleep. There were still a couple of hours before it would be night time, but it was not really a problem for Lin Mu to sleep if he wanted to.

In just a couple of minutes, Lin Mu fell asleep and appeared in the Sleepscape.

~shua~

A Grey orb of light appeared on his side and from it came Senior Xukong.

"Time to see if your hypothesis is correct or not now." Xukong said.

"Here goes nothing…" Lin Mu replied before digging out a hole in the ground some distance away from the Wood Spirit tulip.

He knew that there was a great chance the two plants would act violent towards each other and considering the strength, the Purple Sickle Amaranth would beat up the wood spirit Tulip pretty easily.

After a sufficiently deep hole was dug, Lin Mu withdrew the Purple Sickle Amaranth.

~Whip~

The spirit herb flinched and attacked Lin Mu due to the change in scenery, but Lin Mu blocked it easily.

~whoosh~

But that attack was just momentary as the spirit herb quickly moved towards the hole that was dug in the ground. It felt like her purple sickle amaranth had found its calling and couldn't wait to fulfill it.

Its roots quickly drilled into the ground and it pulled the peak grade spirit stone with the soil it was holding onto with it.

~tremble~

The ground moved slightly, and it looked like there was something wiggling in the soil.

'The roots are spreading…' Lin Mu understood.

The two of them watched as the spirit Qi fluctuations coming from the spirit herb started to increase little by little.

~SHUA~

Then, as if a dam had broken, a strong spirit Qi wave gushed out of the Purple Sickle Amaranth. Its stem started to grow more before it split into two. Then on the new stem, more leaves grew and purple clusters of flowers appeared as well.

Its height increased by a few of centimeters finally and reached two and a half meters.

"It had the same effect." Lin Mu muttered.

"Seems like the Sleepscape does have a slight enhancement effect on sentient spirit herbs." Xukong stated.

Lin Mu nodded his head and started to observe the Purple Sickle Amaranth. His next task was to learn what the plant could do and what its uses would be. This was not just for the records that the information would be added to, but also so that it would be of a benefit to him.

He started by touching the spirit herb, and did not get a violent reaction from it.

'It certainly calmed down by a lot…' Lin Mu thought.

He then felt each and every part of the spirit herb with his spirit sense to see if he could discover any properties that were not obvious, like the sharpness of the leaves and the rich wood element in the flowers.

Lin Mu observed the spirit herb for a couple of hours and finally had the biggest discovery of all till now.

"Hang on… did the spirit Qi in the air change?" Lin Mu asked.

Xukong spread his spirit sense and analyzed the air before nodding.

"It did change… while the concentration of the spirit Qi in general is the same… the composition is not." Xukong stated.

~huu~

Lin Mu took a deep breath and felt that there was more than just attribute less spirit Qi in the air now.

"I can't believe it… Wood elemental spirit Qi!" Lin Mu said out loud.

"You seem to have found a really good spirit herb. Its value is a lot more than just a normal spirit herb that can provide materials. This can provide a sustained source of wood elemental spirit Qi." Xukong replied.

"Indeed… I can sense that it is absorbing the normal spirit Qi and converting it into the elemental from." Lin Mu understood.
