Walker Of The Worlds

~THUD~

"Haa~ that was a good meal…" Lin Mu finally finished eating and laid down the last basket.

At one point, he had directly started eating from the baskets instead of the trays and now there were tens of them lying around him.

If one counted the number of baskets, they would find them to be fifty four!

One must know that each basket appropriately contained a little over a hundred Stone Flesh Mushrooms and the size of each mushroom was between five to fifteen centimeters. If all of them were piled together, Lin Mu had basically eaten the same mass as a small house in one go.

Which was actually not the highest amount he had ever eaten before. Lin Mu had eaten literally tons of beast meat in the past after all. But the difference this time was of quality. Not only were these Stone Flesh Mushrooms vastly richer in Spirit Qi and Vitality, but they were also quick to be processed.

Thus, the amount of Spirit Qi and vitality he obtained from them right now was comparable to the hundreds of Beast corpses he might have eaten.

~HUU~

Lin Mu took a deep breath as he felt the fine changes in his body. He could sense his injuries healing, mainly his shoulder that was injured the worst. Along with that, the hidden sequelae in his body were also disappearing.

'My shoulder should be fully healed in a week at this rate.' Lin Mu estimated.

While a week seemed long in comparison to Lin Mu's healing abilities, it was actually very short considering the golden body he had. Being very durable also meant that it would be that much harder to heal once injured.

Having rested for a minute, Lin Mu opened his eyes and finally noticed the large crowd watching him. He glanced over at the tens of baskets lying around him and the bewildered look on Elder Niji's face.

It was then that he realized what he had done.

'Shit! I did it again.' Lin Mu cursed himself.

"I'm sorry! Did I eat too much of your stores?" Lin Mu asked.

He knew what kind of a place the Haima tribe lived in and he didn't know if they could grow food well enough. Or even if they did well enough to feed their tribe and even had a stock, Lin Mu guessed that he might have eaten enough to deplete that.

At first Elder Niji didn't respond as he was still recovering from the entire thing. But when Lin Mu repeated, he finally woke up from his stupor.

"N-no… we have plenty more. Do you want to eat more?" Elder Niji asked, wondering if the man could still each more.

"No! No!" Lin Mu frantically said, thinking that he might have offended them. "I've had enough."

"Oh, I see." Elder Niji replied.

"Will… your tribe be okay? Will there be a lack of food for the rest?" Lin Mu couldn't help but ask.

"Huh? No, no! We have a lot more." Elder Niji hurriedly replied.

"Really?" Lin Mu was doubtful.

"Of course." Elder Niji assured. "Come, I'll give you a look around the tribe to prove it." He added.

"O-okay…" Lin Mu walked after him while the crowd parted.

A few of the Haima tribe members still followed after them though, feeling curious while the rest dispersed and returned to their duties. They had already taken an hour's break while watching Lin Mu and there was more work to be done.

"This is the living areas of our tribe, but you should have already seen them." Elder Niji gestured with his hands.

It was the very first area that Lin Mu had seen and there wasn't anything special to it.

"After the living area, is the Elder hill where my house is. You've seen that too, so I'll take you to the harvest grounds of our tribe." The Elder spoke before speeding up.

Despite looking old, the elder could walk more vigorously than a young man. After all, even if he was old he had a cultivation base that was equivalent to that of a Dao Treading realm cultivator.

Lin Mu had sensed their cultivation bases and already knew that they followed a different path of cultivation that he didn't know about. And while they did have spirit Qi and vital energy in their bodies too, they utilized it differently.

He actually couldn't find any normal cultivation technique signature in them either. Making him think that it was actually similar to that of beasts, where it was just natural. They simply lived, ate and rested, and their cultivation automatically increased with time.

Then there was also the fact that even in a barren area like the Land of Exile, the concentration of spirit Qi was very high. It could easily compare to that of the special cultivation pavilions of the top three sects.

Simply cultivating here without any resources and depending only on the atmospheric spirit Qi would be the same as using several high grade spirit stones in a row.

This was the difference in standard of an Immortal world and a mortal world.

Elder Niji introduced some of the minor areas that came along the way before the two of them reached a narrow entrance at the back. It looked like there were several tunnels carved through it and there were many Haima tribe members passing through them.

There were several rows of such tunnels too, and large stone carts were being brought through them.

After going through one such tunnel, Lin Mu and Elder Niji reached their destination.

"This… is the Harvest Grounds of our tribe." Elder Niji spoke.

Lin Mu saw a vast open cave that had slabs of solid rock suspended with rock pillars. Each of these slabs was at least fifty meters wide and had several rows of soil placed on it. And on this soil grew thousands upon thousands of mushrooms.

The mushroom varied in size too and the biggest of them reached a size of over a meter in width!
