Chapter 290: Millions Of Markers?
Three days passed by in the blink of an eye. Lin Wu had been digging his way through the ground nonstop and did not feel tired at all. In fact, this was the first time he was levying his capabilities as a nascent soul realm beast for the first time.
While he was not able to cultivate like this, the passive absorption of spirit Qi that he got was still enough to compensate for most of the exhaustion of spirit Qi. The distance between the Millennium forest and the Frozen Cloud sect was truly quite a lot for him.
Though once he saw the notification on the HUD, he knew he was close.
~Rumble~
The earth suddenly started to shake in an isolated part of the forest, startling the nearby beasts who all ran away at great speed. All the beasts knew about earthquakes and knew it was best to run beforehand from disasters such as those.
The tremors only got stronger before a huge crystalline head upper out of the ground.
“Ahh~ finally! Fresh air really is good.” Lin Wu said as he took a deep breath.
He looked around the forest and saw the different types of trees. Lin Wu could tell that these trees were adapted to a more colder climate and seeing the white areas of the map, he knew there was snow nearby.
Currently, it was summer and thus there was no snow here. But there were higher areas here, where the snow layer stayed all year long. The Frozen Cloud sect was located on a group of such snow covered peaks some distance from here.
The reason why Lin Wu had stopped here was to check out the area and get a sense of it.
“You know what to do system, scan the area!” Lin Wu ordered.
~Ding~
——
SCANNER ACTIVATED: Large area selected
TIME REQUIRED: 2 hours, 12 minutes, 7 seconds…
——
“Damn, if it’s taking this long then there are definitely a lot of things in this region.” Lin Wu said to himself.
He pulled out the rest of his body from the ground and spread his own spirit sense to check the area. Lin Wu noticed the Maple trees that grew here along with a few more conifers. There were also plenty of pine trees that towered high over two hundred meters each.
‘The plants in cultivation worlds are really massive, huh. I bet this isn’t even the taller ones here.’ Lin Wu thought to himself.
Along with all the trees, there were also a ton of normal animals and beasts in the area. Lin Wu was still in the outer area of the forest, thus there were mostly normal animals here, but a few beasts were also roaming around.
Though the beasts that he saw were herbivores. He couldn’t really see any predators here, either. The strongest spirit Qi fluctuation that he could sense currently was that of a Qi refining realm beast.
He then opened the map window and saw the area details appearing little by little. There were hundreds of markers appearing by the minute, and more of them would be added as time passed by. After about an hour, Lin Wu finally saw the outline of the Frozen Cloud sect.
The Sect was about ten kilometers to the south and he could see the large formation barrier around the sect on the map.
“Hmm… so this will be the first thing I’ll have to get past.” Lin Wu muttered to himself.
In these three days that he had been traveling, he had not talked to Wang Xiong as the man had been busy in cultivating. Ever since he said that his physique was changing to Lin Wu, he had been advised to fully focus on that part before the competition.
Lin Wu didn’t know what exactly was the change as he would have to physically be near him to scan him and see the difference but if it was related to the Taiji Celestial’s Inheritance then it was bound to be good.
‘Though I wonder why I did not experience the same. After all, I have the superior version of the cultivation technique that was given to Wang Xiong.’ Lin Wu muttered to himself.
“Any data on this system?” Lin Wu asked.
~Ding~
——
ANSWER: There should be more data in the encrypted part of the inheritance but the system can estimate that this may be due to the host himself. While the Taiji Dual Unity Scripture was made to be practiced by nearly any creature, it was not meant for a hybrid like the host.
Due to being an anomaly, the system reckons that the technique will either take longer to show the effects or it may be that the host’s body simply does not need it. The basic version of the cultivation technique is likely to be modifying the physique of the user so that they can accommodate the higher versions.
In fact, the talent and physique were some of the other aspects that would have been considered during the trials for the inheritance of the Taiji Celestial. Depending on how talented the trial taker was, they would have received an appropriate level of inheritance.
——
Seeing the system’s answer, Lin Wu found it to be reasonable. Overall, he knew his talent was much higher than that of the humans. He even had the perfect benchmark to compare himself to, which was none other than Shirong.
If that man’s talent was among the best in this world, then Lin Wu was far above him. Not to mention his bloodlines that were unique, whose potentials were yet to be unearthed.
Just like this Lin Wu spent the rest of the time thinking and the system finished its scan.
~Ding~
——
SCAN COMPLETED: Map updated
MARKERS FOUND: 6,857,419
NOTE: Please see the relevant window for more details about the markers.

“Just as I expected, there were bound to be these many things here.” Lin Wu muttered to himself as he opened the window, which had the detailed list of markers.
