Chapter 1968 Immersing Himself in The Forest

Once Lin Mu had stored all the Elder Evergreen Pillar Bamboos, he could now place the bamboo pavilion here.

He did have to make a couple more adjustments to the building though, as one sides of the pavilion would be dipping in the pond. But that was easily fixed by simply increasing the supporting pillar of the Bamboo pavilion on that side.

"And done." Lin Mu dusted his hands off, as he finished the touch ups.

~THUD~

He placed the bamboo pavilion in the center of the six ponds and completed his residence for the coming few months.

It was rather quaint with the six ponds surrounding it and then a circle of Elder Evergreen Pillar Bamboos that extended further and merged into the rest of the Forest. Looking at it from the bamboo boundary made it look quite picturesque too.

'Did they describe the abodes of immortals to be like this in the mortal stories?' Lin Mu recalled having heard many such stories when he was a child.

In those, immortals were elusive and lived in deep forests in scenic pavilions, or high up on mountain peaks that were occluded with mysterious mist.

And now that Lin Mu was rethinking about that, he realized that there was certainly some truth to those stories.

'If there are other skills like the Litany Of the Verdant Forests, then it would make sense why stories like those were created. There's bound to be other cultivators who had to move into suitable isolated areas to practice their cultivation techniques.' Lin Mu thought to himself as he stepped into his personally made pavilion.

The formations of the pavilion were functioning perfectly like before and all that was left was for Lin Mu to activate them.

It was a dance of tranquility, a ballet of nature, an example of perfect harmony. The Jade colored world around Lin Mu was like a tranquil heaven where time seemed to slow and the outside world faded away.

Lin Mu too gave up on time, and let the world progress.

His breaths synchronized with the winds while the Qi within him flowed at the same pace as that of the Evergreen Pillar Bamboos.

While Lin Mu was immersed in this, the forest around him had started to subtly change. The changes were fine and even peak immortals would find it hard to sense. The bamboos shifted, ever so slightly. Their branches tilted little by little everyday, while the leaves began to face the pavilion.

Eventually a day came where, all the branches tilted towards Lin Mu, the leaves faced him and the Bamboo leaned at him.

If Lin Mu were to directly sense the Evergreen Pillar Bamboos with his Immortal sense, he would finally feel the difference. As of now, a major change had happened.

Not only was the flow of energy linked from the roots of the Evergreen Pillar Bamboo, but even the branches and leaves were the same.

Fine wisp of Qi rose from the leaves and flowed to the other bamboos. The flow was very delicate and fine. And with how many leaves and branches were present in the area, the wisps of Qi formed a dense net.

As time passed, the flowing Qi net got denser and denser, coming closer and closer to the pavilion. It eventually reached it, avoiding all the formations that were placed on it. It was as if they were never there.

The formations did not register this as a threat and considered it the same as air.

The net continued to grow until it weaved and wrapped around the pavilion. At a certain point, it was almost caressing Lin Mu's body and avoiding it just by a fraction of millimeters.
