Chapter 973: Safety And Monitoring Measures
With an almost perfect coordination between his Dao Embryo’s and their properties, Lin Wu basically had no bottleneck for a long time. Though this also came with its own issues.
‘The Dao Skills aren’t really… direct…’ Lin Mu recalled.
For the Helix of Assimilation Dao Embryo, the Dao Skill that came with it innately was similar to Chimeric Adaptation. It basically allowed its user to strengthen their bodies the more kinds of creatures they consumed.
It was a supportive Dao Skill and could not be used directly in battle.
For the Upheaval Totem Dao Embryo, it was even more complex. So much so that Lin Wu had yet to fully understand it himself.
“I understand that it can strengthen me when there is Upheaval around me, but what does that exactly mean?” Lin Wu wondered to himself.
At the very least, since Lin Wu knew how to grow them, he was fine with it all. He didn’t necessarily need to depend in Dao Skill either way. Plus, he was thinking of making more Dao Embryo’s in the future.
‘One for each Dao Trace that had a compatibility with me…’ Lin Wu thought to himself.
“Then there is also the unknown bloodline… it hasn’t formed its Dao Embryo yet.” Lin Wu didn’t forget it.
Ever since he had reached the Dao treading realm, the unknown bloodline’s Nascent soul had been silent. It sat over the Dao shell and didn’t move nor did anything. It was if it didn’t even exist.
If it weren’t for the fact that Lin Wu could still sense it absorbing spirit Qi, he would have thought it had disappeared.
~Sigh~
“No use thinking about it too much. So far it has grown on its own, so it’ll do the rest automatically. If not, I’ll just have to wait till I find that beast.” Lin Wu said to himself before switching to another window.
Since his goal was to create an ‘Upheaval’ he needed to monitor all his plans closely. Only when there was the perfect amount of input on multiple ends would he get the perfect mix of chaos.
In front of Lin Wu, there were nearly a hundred screens floating.
Each of the screen showed a different place and different people. Some of these people were Lin Wu’s subordinates and servants, while some were people that he had given his crystal plates too.
All of them were able to send back a data feed and had basically expanded Lin Wu’s scope of control and monitoring.
“Hmm… looks like the next set of crystal armaments will be arriving soon…” Lin Wu could hear the chatter of people.
Whenever these crystal armaments arrived, it would be a pleasing day for Lin Wu. He continued his work and passed the time until finally the crystal armaments were sent to the Millennium Forest kingdom.
With the new merchant lines and safe routes set up by the beasts, the transport of high priority goods and messages was very fast.
~SHUA~
A teleportation circle opened up and from it appeared an Emeraldine Monkey.
“My King, the humans have sent over the Crystal Armaments for ‘repairs’.” The Emeraldine Monkey spoke. “I have also added the list of changes they want for the next users.” He added.
“Good, you can leave them here.” Lin Wu was rather eager to start his ‘work’.
The Emeraldine Monkey cupped his hands before taking his leave.
“Finally… time for a little snack…” Lin Wu tapped on the storage treasure that the beast had brought, taking out all of its contents.
The storage treasure was a special version of spatial storage tools that had been developed by the Lian clan along with cooperation from Lin Wu. These storage tools were modified to have higher security and defenses.
If anyone that was unauthorized to have it, tried to open one, they would most likely die. There were several Qi skills stored in the spatial storage tool and could even kill a Dao shell realm cultivator.
In fact, the security was so high that it didn’t even need escorts to be transported. The only reason why they still did so was because other materials would also be transported along with them.
Lin Wu had gotten the system to research quite a bit to make the perfectly secure storage treasure. In addition to the offensive skills stored in them, they also had a permanent tracking formation within.
The owner could use this to track, and Lin Wu could track all of them too regardless of ownership.
Plus depending on how sensitive the goods being transported within them were, its security level could be adjusted too.
For example, it could be made to explode if it left the body of the person that was transporting it. This would ensure that only authorized people could touch them or carry them.
There had already been a few examples of thieves trying their hands at getting their goods. And every time, they had met with a very bad end.
In the best case they would explode and die from the storage too and in the worst case they would face an army of experts as well as beasts.
There were some versions that had a ‘taunting’ feature built into it. It was basically a type of pheromone that would make beasts turn violent.
So if anyone unauthorized had the stolen storage tool on them, they would be ‘stained’ by this pheromone.
Once that was done, it didn’t matter even if the stolen storage tool changed hands. They would keep on getting chased down by beasts no matter where they went. The worst part was that it didn’t just apply to cultivator beasts, it even applied to normal animals, insects and bugs.
Thus finding anyone that had touched a storage tool would be easy. They would be constantly surrounded by a swarm of bugs, bees, mosquitoes and more animals.
It might have just been one of Lin Wu’s most nefarious designs.
“Let’s begin our snack time then, shall we?” Lin Wu picked up the first weapon and swallowed it.
