Chapter 1807 Clay And High Elder's Words

After Lin Mu and others consoled Ming Dandan for a bit Lu Xu reminded him of something.

"Brother Mu Lin, have you gotten your reward yet?" Lu Xu asked.

"I haven't. I came straight here, after the fight since I had to assist you." Lin Mu replied.

He had almost forgotten about the reward too, as he was too engrossed in the arrays.

"Then you should go and get it now. Everyone is hurrying to prepare for tomorrow as the matches will be the toughest ever." Lu Xu replied. "I heard that the bets are increasing too."

"Indeed." Luo Liqin agreed. "The overall odds have risen."

"Everyone will be wanting to get stronger before that. Or at the very least, they would want to return to their peak condition after today's fight." Qian Wen chimed in.

"I'll also be cultivating till then. I feel like I've gotten more insights after fighting." Lu Xu stated.

"Mmhmm, you should do that. Depending on how it goes, your fight might come later." Lin Mu agreed.

"The rewards this time are better too." Lu Xu added.

"Alright, I'll go get it now." Lin Mu replied before standing up.

From the last reward, Lin Mu didn't know if it would be that good for him. While there was certainly value in the rewards, as could be seen from the Triple Refined Immortal gold.

It was valuable to many, but Lin Mu had an entire chestful of them. He also didn't have an immediate use for them. Rather than them, something like Faux Vine Metal ore was a lot more useful for him.

Of course, he didn't mind the Immortal stones and pills. n0Velusb.c0M

The Immortal Stones were used up by Lin Mu rather quickly as he was using them to restore his Immortal Qi to the full.

In his fight against Yin Yuan, he had used up a little over twenty percent of his Immortal Qi stores, and he had used the stones to restore it to full again so that he would be ready for the fight anytime.

After all, there was always a chance that they might put him in the first match.

While thinking of all this, Lin Mu reached the Victor's pavilion.

There he quickly got his reward which was just more High Grade immortal stones, some healing pills as well as an additional material reward.

Though it looked to be rather unassuming.

In Lin Mu's hand was a brown material that was packed in a small box.

"Mud?" Lin Mu thought of the first thing that came to his mind.

"That... is actually Clay." Xukong's voice was heard.

"What kind of Clay is it though?" Lin Mu could feel fine traces of Earth Dao Traces as well as some Wood Dao Traces from it.

He certainly didn't think that the Temple would just give normal mud as a reward.

"That should be the Wood Breath Clay." Xukong replied. "It is used in Alchemy and is a harmonizing ingredient for pills that utilize both Earth and Wood Elemental materials. Though it can also be used for some Immortal tools." He explained.

"Hmmm..." Hearing that though, an idea appeared in Lin Mu's mind. "Since this can be used for immortal tools, heating this clay should be fine right?" he asked.

"Yes..." Xukong didn't know what Lin Mu was getting at.

"Then I should be able to make a cup from it, right?" Lin Mu questioned.

"A cup?" Xukong was surprised.

"Yes. Considering the Dao Traces of Earth and Wood in it, I think a wine cup or even a teacup it could enhance the effects of whatever is drank. Or at the very least, it would preserve the effects." Lin Mu stated.

Hearing all that, Xukong didn't know if what Lin Mu was doing was opulent or simple.

On some level using Wood Breath Clay to make a cup seemed extravagant as it was a valuable material used in alchemy. But if one thought about it in another way, using it in pills was an exhaustive use. The Wood Breath Clay would be consumed permanently.

Turning it into a cup would keep it as a fixed resource and one might actually obtain more benefits over the long term.

"Why do you want to make it into a cup though?" Xukong couldn't help but ask.

"I want to gift it to the Saintess." Lin Mu answered. "I think it'll be Xukong didn't know whether to laugh or cry after hearing that.

"Hah, alright." Xukong simply chuckled. "You can turn it into a cup... good with the wine that is being brewed." He thought of it as an accompaniment.

Xukong didn't know whether to laugh or cry after hearing that.

"Hah, alright." Xukong simply chuckled. "You can turn it into a cup... though you'll need strong high quality flames to do it."

"Will Little Shrubby's flames be enough?" Lin Mu asked.

"They will work, but the end product might not be as good. Little Shrubby's flames have a lot of raw power." Xukong replied. "It needs fine control, the likes of which are present in an alchemist flame... the Qi flame."

Hearing that Lin Mu furrowed his brows. He knew how to use Qi flames and had even used them a long time ago.

"I guess I can try." Lin Mu muttered.

The last time Lin Mu had used them was back in the Three Cauldrons Peony sect. Since then, Lin Mu had come a long way, and wondered how well his Qi flame would be like.

'Guess I'll try it once I'm free again.' Lin Mu thought before putting the box of clay in the storage.

With that done, Lin Mu was about to leave the pavilion when an old man appeared.

"Hoho, seems like you've managed to come quite far." A familiar voice greeted Lin Mu.

"High Elder Juxue... Greetings." Lin Mu cupped his hands in salute.

It was the man who had informed Lin Mu of the interference in the Tournament.

"Mmm, keep up your performance. The temple will eagerly look forward to your accomplishments." High Elder Juxue said before disappearing.

With the High Elder gone, Lin Mu felt a bit confused.

'Did he come to just tell me that?' Lin Mu wondered.
