Chapter 2239 A nce At The Past And A Dazzle In The Present
Lin Mu went high up in the sky so that he could get a better look at the area below. With how high he was, the Toad nt Hybrid Chimeric beasts wouldn''t react to him and he would also be far from the effects of the Death Qi boundaries.
"There''s certainly a lot ofkes here." Lin Mu muttered to himself as he nced at the vast expanse. "I managed to find Two Dazzling Mud Lotus nts in all this… the third one that is flowering will take some more effort." He started to divide the areas into segments.
Lin Mu first separated the areas that he had already been to and only looked at the areas that he had not been to yet. And in those, Lin Mu singled out thekes that were a bit too small and could be called as ''ponds'' instead.
''With how big the Three Colored Dazzling Mud Lotus can get, it certainly won''t be in a pond that small. Especially considering its tendency to stay in an area with the Toad nt Hybrid Chichi beasts.'' Lin Mu thought to himself.
Having done that, he manged to reduce his area of search by half. But this was still arge area that would take some time to search and scour through one by one.
But as he watched it all, he realized something.
"All thesekes and ponds… They''re craters." Lin Mu spun around and saw that the distribution of thekes was simr to how a meteor shower would have. ''The areas that don''t have thekes are cut off on the southern side with a ridge while the further eastern side is covered with smaller hills.'' He noted the topography.
This gave him an idea about what could have happened.
"This might be where a lot of the ''Harbingers''nded. Perhaps these were the ones that were carrying the Toad nt Hybrid Chimeric beasts." Lin Mu thought to himself. "Whatever city here was… Got devastated by it. And perhaps the natural presence of water from theke before ensured that the Chimeric beasts continued to stay here." He now had an idea of possible scenario that could have happened in the past.
But as he thought about this, he suddenly had another idea.
"Wait a minute, can''t I just…" ~SHUA~
Lin Mu disappeared from the Spatial ne and appeared in the Parallel Dimension. But he wasn''t on the ground like usual and was high up in the sky too.
"Let''s see… Sure enough." Lin Mu looked below and saw the ''temte'' of a city.
Not just that, but he could also see the other areas such as farnd, beast rearing areas and more around it. Of course, these were all empty, but theyout left little to his imagination. A scene soon formed in Lin Mu''s mind and he could ''see'' hundreds of meteors falling form the sky and barraging the city and the area around it. The city was entirely devastated while the demons inhabiting it tried to escape.
The strong ones survived while the weak died.
Many were injured and more were to be injured by the arrival of the Chimeric beasts.
The strong fought back, but it was a lost cause and they eventually had to abandon the city.
The presence of the Toad nt Chimeric Beast along with the death andrgeke probably gave the prefect conditions for Murkwater Qi to be created here. What once started as a few wisps of Qi soon spread and over tens of thousands of years became the area that Lin Mu witnessed.

"The past might have Faded, but it has not been forgotten… The Void Remembers it." Lin Mu muttered to himself, a fewplex thoughts going through his mind. ''The Parallel Dimension… what other secrets can it show?'' He wondered.
The mysteries of the fourth skill seemed to be deeper than Lin Mu had thought, making him realize that he might have only seen the tip of the iceberg so far. After all, even Xukong was stumped by how the skill worked and what kind of dimension it brought Lin Mu to.
"Senior Xukong, can you sense the void from here?" Lin Mu suddenly asked. "And can you get out of here, if you were here?" "I can." Xukong replied. "I might be able to forcefully breakout of here, but if I am to find a proper route, I don''t think I''ll know where to go. This ce… Is not in a segment of Void that I''m familiar with… this isn''t like any of the Void''s Layers. This is… Its own existence." He had a lot to think about now too.
As a being that had great mastery over the Space and one that had knew about Grand Void better than most existences in the cosmos, there weren''t many things rted to the void or space that could stump Xukong.
And now that he was seeing the mysteries of the skill, he was doubting his own knowledge of the void.
''Would the Old Monster know what this is?'' Xukong wondered. ''No… He wouldn''t make an outlier like this… He is already too busy maintaining all that exists… Innovation is not a word in his dictionary,'' He pondered deeply.
Lin Mu didn''t know Xukong''s thoughts and reckoned he had already said what he wanted to and had gone silent. ''I suppose the rest will have to be uncovered on my own,'' Lin Mu thought to himself, as the duration of the skill came to an end.
~SHUA~
He reappeared in the real world and gazed at the present. A solemn expression dressed his face as he couldn''t helppare the past to the present. The former glory of a ce that might have been a great city, and the deste area of deaththat it was now… the change was drastic.
But as he was thinking this, a tiny glint was picked up from the corner of his eye.
"What''s that?" Lin Mu narrowed his eyes and focused on the glint.
The glint was so small that if the conditions were not perfect, Lin Mu wouldn''t have seen it at all. After all, there were plenty of things that blocked ones line of sight and luded it such as the Death Qi boundaries, the baleful energies or just the particte matter in general.
It just so happened, that a Death Qi boundary had shifted far in the distance, allowing Lin Mu to pick up on the glint.
"It''s shining?" Lin Mu could now make out some colors. "White, Pink And Red?" once he recognized though, a name appeared in his mind.
Three Colored Dazzling Mud Lotus!
~WHOOSH~
"THAT SHOULD BE IT!" Lin Mu rushed towards the three colored glint.
The flower had it in its name, ''Dazzling''.
As such, it was normal for it to be shiny, and Crown Princess Shang had also described a bit more about it. And now that Lin Mu was seeing the shiny glint, he knew for sure there was only one thing that could be like that in this muddynd.
''If not for the fact that this is a t ne, and not a spherical world, there is no way I would''ve spotted the Three Colored Dazzling Mud Lotus from that far.'' Lin Mu thanked his luck.
Of course, even on a t ne, there was a limit to visibility due to theposition of air. Not to mention there were plenty of opaque things mixed in the air that already made it harder to see.
He soared through the sky while using Blink nonstop, raising his speed to a blinding level. Lin Mu covered over a two hundred kilometers of area before he finally reached the area of interest.
Lin Mu stood above a mid sizedke that was about twenty Kilometers in size. Theke stood out quite a bit as it was entirely filled with flowers and leaves. Of course, most of these were the Chimeric beasts, but there was an eye catching flower in the middle.
As if a gemstone in the mud, it literally shone and called attention to itself!
Lin Mu marveled at the Lotus that was at least a meter in size. It had three colored petals, with red in the bottom, pink in the middle and finally white on the tips.
Each petal was like shimmering silk, and swayed in the air while wide leaves that were over five meters in diameter each surrounded it.
It looked beautiful and elegant, while also exuding a faint power that would be easy to miss if one didn''t ''look'' at it. But before Lin Mu could get it, he needed to assess what he was up against.
~SHUA~
Activating his Spatial Perception he saw the swarm of toads that filled theke that was deeper than expected.
"Xiao Yin, Xiao Yang…" Lin Mu whispered, calling the twins over through his link.
Even if they were far, he knew that it wouldn''t take them long to finish their snack ande over.
