Chapter 2471 The Saintess''s Cloud Dao Lessons


    ~YAWN~


    The next days, Lin Mu woke up with long yawn.


    "Haaah~ that was good." Lin Mu felt really good having had a proper sleep. ''No dreams this time.'' He realized.


    He didn''t know if this was just because he was tired or not, but he had been wondering if he would get to connect with the Astral Dimension again when he slept. Xukong had told him that once someone enters the Astral Dimension, they would be inextricably connected with it.


    While it won''t be the same as going into it, one might still be able to see a few nces of it. But it didn''t happen this time.


    ''Perhaps there''s something else that''s needed for it.'' Lin Mu thought to himself. But when he rubbed his eyes, he realized that he wasn''t where he had lied down before.


    "The bed?" Lin Mu looked below him. "How did I get here?" he wondered.


    "Come on out now that you''re awake." The Saintess''s voice drifted into his ears, solving his query.


    ''She moved me to the bed…'' Lin Mu was surprised and didn''t know why she did that. But it was nothing toin about so he didn''t think much about it further. Once he was out though, he noticed theke was covered with clouds again.


    "You prepared theke?" Lin Mu asked.


    "I thought you''d like to train right away once you woke up." The Saintess replied.


    "Yeah, I did finish assimting most of what I learned before." Lin Mu nodded, feeling pleasantly surprised that the Saintess knew what he''d want.


    "Let''s get started then." The Saintess said as he flicked her finger.


    ~WHOOSH~


    Lin Mu was sent flying but this time he was experienced andnded smoothly in the cloudke.


    His legs moved in a curve as he stabilized himself and used the clouds to even move forward, utilizing the momentum that the Saintess had provided. He began walking and did so without falling for over three hundred steps!


    "You certainly didn''t ck." The Saintess said seeing his progress. "Now we can move one difficultly level up." She stated. This belongs ? N?velDra/ma.Org.


    "What''s that?" Lin Mu asked.


    ~SHUA~


    But soon he heard a sound behind him and turned to see what was a wave of clouds heading his way!


    "What the…" he was not expecting that.


    "See if you can stand against that." The Saintess causally said as she sped up the wave.


    "Oh damn," Lin Mu sensed the flow of the Cloud Dao traces but found them to be far too erratic to judge properly.


    ~WHOOSH~


    And soon enough he was carried away by the wave, wiping out at the shore.


    "Haah… At least that''s better than getting struck by a sea wave." Lin Mu muttered to himself. "No salt water to spit out." He was happy about that.


    If it were a wave in the sea of ocean, he would get drenched and possibly swallow a lot of the brine which wasn''t exactly a pleasant experience even if he was resistant to it all.


    "Get up." The Saintess said as another wave started to form at the periphery.


    "Yes." Lin Mu immediately did so and ran towards the wave, this time sensing the movement of the Cloud Dao Traces beforehand.


    He could feel how the Cloud Dao Traces moved towards the wave and how they were beingpressed and rising through it. He could also sense the density of the clouds getting lighter below him while turning heavier near the wave.


    ~THUD~


    ~WHOOSH~


    But as he sensed all this, he was already toote and got struck by the wave, wiping him away at the shore.


    "You need to be faster than that." The Saintess advised.


    "Again." Lin Mu said as he quickly got up. "I''ll get it after a few ten or hundred tries." He wasn''t one to back down from tiny failures like this.


    ~WHOOSH~


    In response, the Saintess simply generated another wave that came towards Lin Mu.


    They repeated this process over and over again, as Lin Mu kept on getting wiped out by the waves. But with every try, his speed of processing and analyzing the Cloud Dao Traces within the clouds got better and faster.


    Of course this was still not enough for him to withstand the wave as he hadn''t figured out what the actual method was.


    He tried jumping, but that only ended up making him lose his bnce as the clouds shifted rapidly throwing him off.


    At first he thought he was simply not timing it right, but after around fifty tries or so he realized that might not be the right away to ovee this. Next he switched it to simply avoiding the wave, but that also didn''t work since it would simply follow him around.


    Over three hundred triester, he figured that the method might be a lot more obvious than he had thought.


    ''Do I need to simply go through it?'' he wondered.


    Wanting to try this out, Lin Mu waited till the wave came towards him and then dived into it straight.


    ~WHOOSH~


    But that still ended up wiping him out at the shore.


    ''The flow of Cloud Dao Traces changes when passing through…'' this gave Lin Mu another hint. He began working on the hint more and sensed the flow of the Cloud Dao traces in the entire wave at first.


    Several tens of triester he realized that the concentration of the Cloud Dao Traces in the entire wave was not the same. Instead, if fluctuated constantly with regions of low and high concentration forming.


    And after another hundred tries, he ended up going through a region of low concentration by chance, which actually allowed him to pass half way through the wave without falling.


    ~THUD~


    ~WHOOSH~


    But then it suddenly changed again, throwing him out.


    "I got it… I need to follow the flow of the Cloud Dao Traces within the wave too." Lin Mu smiled as he felt like he had finally grasped it.


    The Saintess heard his words and smiled under her veil, feeling pleased by his progress.
