CHAPTER 652 - REVIVAL OF THE MU CLAN

~WEENG~

The runes of the formation array faded away as the door of the vault finally opened up. The illusory figure of the Great Slumber Bear also disappeared back into Lin Mu’s body, leaving behind no trace.

’What kind of a bloodline does senior have?’ Mu Tao wondered.

’This power... it is not normal...’ Mu Niu thought.

~huu~

Lin Mu took a breath upon seeing the door of the vault was finally open. Jing Luo felt relieved as well and checked the formations one last time to ensure that it was stable and it would not explode upon their entry.

"It’s safe now, we can enter." Jing Luo spoke.

Lin Mu and the other nodded and carefully stepped ahead.

~shua~

The interior of the vault was illumined by a small formation that created a string of lights at the top of the vault. This let them all see the items that were contained within the vault.

"Heavens!" Mu Tao couldn’t help but exclaim.

The vault was actually not that being, being smaller than those of the Tri Cauldron peony sect. But that was understandable, as that was a vault for an entire sect, while this was for a clan.

In the vault, the resources that could be used for cultivation such as the alchemical pills, spirit stones and spirit herbs were present in plenty. Mu Tao was overwhelmed by just them as they would be enough to solve all of their debt even if just one percent of this was sold off.

In addition to that, there were also the most important parts of the vault, the records of the clan, and the cultivation techniques. While Mu Tao was looking at this, Lin Mu was looking for the puppets that the Mulong clan was said to have used.

"THIS IS IT!" Mu Niu suddenly shouted, a long scroll in his hand.

"What did you find, uncle Niu?" Mu Tao questioned.

"It... it’s the manufacturing technique for the puppets!" Mu Niu said out loud. "We are saved! We are saved!

Lin Mu quickly scanned over the scroll with his spirit sense and found a complicated methodology written on the scroll. There were hundreds upon hundreds of steps written on it, describing the process of the creations of a puppet.

Lin Mu had learned a little about puppets from the memories of the Lost immortal before and knew how they worked. Now that he compared those puppets describe in the memoirs, and he realized these were far more complex.

But in addition to that, they were also quite small in size. A majority of them were no bigger than the size of a hand and the smallest ones were only the size of a grape. One could imagine the detail that went into making a puppet this small.

In fact, one could even consider that making a puppet this small would be far more difficult than makings a giant puppet. Lin Mu had read the cultivation technique of the Mu clan and knew that the Thousand Thread Breath Technique allowed them to turn their spirit Qi into threads which would then allow them to control these puppets.

In this way, even a Qi refining realm cultivator could operate a puppet for at least a hundred meter range. One would argue if this was the same as that of spirit sense, but it was not.

While their structure might be the same, their functionality was far different. In the case of the puppets, the threads were more like wires that supplied power to them; and in the case of spirit sense, each tendril of it was like a sensory organ that performed multiple functions.

That was the reason why refining spirit Qi was so hard as the the range increased.

"This all is rather impressive. With this, the Mu clan should be able to grow quite well." Jing Luo commented.

"If everything goes well, yes." Lin Mu agreed.

~pata~

Mu Tao and Mu Niu turned to Lin Mu and Jing Luo before cupping their hands in a salute and bowing their heads.

"I, Mu Tao, the patriarch of the Mu Clan, thank seniors for their help. You are the saviors of our clan, and we shall be eternally grateful. From here on, the Mu clan will do its best in assisting the seniors in whatever it is that needs to be done." Mu Tao said with reddened eyes.

For these past two years, he had been under a great amount of stress. He feared that the Mu clan will be coming to an end under his rule and he would become the sinner of his clan, which let the clan perish.

He had matured a lot over the two years, but even then, there were certain insecurities that he could not resolve. But then Lin Mu came and brought Jing Luo along with him, solving the biggest problem of the Mu clan.

Now that they had access to the vault, Mu tao was sure that they could take care of all their other problems such as the debt, and the council members on their own. Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

"It is our pleasure that we now have an additional ally to fight against the tyranny of Gu Yao and the Northern Tribes." Lin Mu replied.

"Hmm... our work here is not done yet though. We still have the council members to take care of." Jing Luo commented.

"Of course, now that this part is done we can go ahead with the rest of the plan." Lin Mu said before looking at Mu Tao. "I want you to focus on your clan for now and make sure that all of them are able to take advantage of the vault and its resources.

Your main aim should be to stabilize your clan first and then increase the cultivation base of everyone in the clan. Don’t exclude the servants either and nurture them too, they will provide valuable support to the Mu clan now that it has shrunk by so much." Lin Mu advised.

"I shall do as you say, senior." Mu Tao humbly responded.
