Chapter 802 - Introducing Everyone To The Kong Plane

"You Renamed it?" Jing Luo asked.

"I did indeed. After all… I own it now." Lin Mu replied.

"Of course…" Jing Luo said thinking of all the possibilities that can be made use of now.

"Wait, Senior Lin Mu! Does this mean you can enter it anytime now?" Hua Wu questioned.

"Yes. It is no longer 'wandering'. Rather, it is linked to me now. Where ever I am, it will be there." Lin Mu answered.

Hearing this, the eyes of everyone lit up.

"Then… can we all see it?" Hua Wu asked.

"I would like that too… I always wondered what the mystical Wandering sinkhole looked like." King Hong agreed.

"Sure, I can take you all one. But before that, don't you need to take the Hong Lin wood to your sect?" Lin Mu questioned.

The eyes of Hua Wu and Hua San went wide and they remembered the main mission that they had come here for. 

"Heavens! We almost forgot!" both of them said in unison.

"How long do you have now?" Lin Mu questioned.

"We have about fifteen days I think. After that, the supreme elder's condition will get worse and he may possibly die." Hua San answered.

"Then getting to your sect first will be more important. Will you be able to reach there in time?" Lin Mu asked.

"We don't even need to get to the sect, as long as we are in the range, we can call for our elders to come get us. Traveling that distance will take us a little more than a week." Hua San replied.

"Very well. You should leave now then. Once your supreme elder is taken care of, you can come back and we can discuss further." Lin Mu stated.

"Yes, senior Lin Mu!" Hua San and Hua Wu said while cupping their hands.

"Now then… I should give you the wood…" Lin Mu said before moving to the outside and withdrawing an entire Thousand year old Hong Lin tree.

Seeing the tree, the jaws of all ministers dropped.

"This… is this even a thousand year old Hong Lin tree?" 

"So big! This is the biggest one I've ever heard of."

Adviser Liu and King Hong were shocked too and didn't speak for a few seconds.

"A mother tree, it's a Hong Lin Mother tree!" Adviser Liu exclaimed.

"Huh? This is what a Hong Lin mother tree looks like?" Lin Mu questioned.

"Indeed. The mother trees in our sacred grounds look just like this and are this big. We don't know how old they exactly are, but they've existed since before the time of our first king." King Hong answered.

"And there are ten mother trees in your sacred land?" Lin Mu questioned further.

Hearing this the King furrowed his brows as he couldn't understand how Lin Mu got to know of this secret information. While the knowledge about the mother trees was public, their numbers were not exactly revealed.

"Yes. There are ten of them." King Hong acknowledged.

Hearing this, Lin Mu smiled and was reminded of the problem that the Hong Lin Kingdom had about the thousand year old Hong Lin trees. Their numbers were falling and there was no way to get them back up.

"Do you know how many trees I found in the Kong Plane?" Lin Mu questioned.

"Five?" One of the ministers guessed.

"Ten?" another one said.

"No… There are over a hundred such trees there. An entire grove of them." Lin Wu answered.

The faces of every one were stunned and they didn't know what to think of it.

"Over a hundred… but adviser Chu never told us that." Adviser Liu spoke.

"Adviser Chu was mistaken about some things and didn't know the truth behind the Kong Plane. Plus ever since he left the plane, many things have changed. I saw a lot of differences in the areas from how Adviser Chu described them." Lin Mu replied.

"I see… still, this is very good news for us. If we can transplant even a couple of them, the entire forest will be revitalized. The number of hundred year old Hong Lin trees should increase as well. 

And maybe… more thousand year old Hong Lin Trees might appear in the future." King Hong said.

With the overall mood of the group now improved, Lin Mu and the rest talked for a bit before Hua Wu and Hua San took their leave. The Thousand year old Hong Lin Tree was chopped and would be enough for several attempts of pill refinement.

After the two were gone though, the others couldn't wait to see the Kong plane themselves.

"Alright, everyone ready?" Lin Mu questioned.

"We are ready!" King Hong and the rest said.

"Hold each other's hands and don't let go." Lin Mu ordered before activating the formation anchor on his body.

~shua~

Runes came out from his body before forming into a formation that teleported everyone that was holding his hand.

A few seconds later, a formation circle opened up in the Kong plane, and on it appeared Lin Mu and everyone that had joined him. The place where they had appeared was in the cave where the teleportation formation was made.

"What's this place? A cave?" Someone asked and they all looked around.

"It's the center of the Kong Plane. Come on, I'll take you out." Lin Mu said, guiding them to the exist.

Upon appearing on the outside, they could finally feel the difference in the air. 

"The spirit Qi… it's higher… even the air feels fresher." Adviser Liu said.

"Indeed. The spirit Qi in this world is slightly higher than that of our world. Some areas are even more concentrated. There are also the areas that are rich in specific elemental spirit Qi." Lin Mu explained.

Hearing this, King Hong felt intrigued.

"The place with the Hong Lin tree grove… is it rich in Fire elemental spirit Qi?" King Hong questioned.

Hearing this Lin Mu smiled.

"That's exactly what I was getting to next. This place will help you get stronger far quicker than before.." Lin Mu stated.
