Chapter 2305 A Missing Item

Chapter 2305 A Missing Item

With Crown Princess Shang and Ziran having picked out the herbs, they were now ready to experiment. "Will you two be able to do it on your own, or do you need my assistance?" Lin Mu inquired.

"It'll be fine, I can do it with Ziran's assistance." Crown Princess Shang replied. "Unless Daoist Mu Lin can do alchemy too?" she asked.

"Ah, I suppose not then." Lin Mu shook his head. "I've tried my hand at it, but I'm not exactly good." "So there is something you're not good at." Crown Princess Shang chuckled. "I guess it's my time to shine this time." "Indeed." Lin Mu nodded his head. "Should we head back now?" Ziran asked seeing that most of the others seemed to be done, except for Daoist Chu and Qiao De.

"I'll ask them." Lin Mu said, moving to where Daoist Chu was first. "Are you done picking things out?" he asked, seeing a few items that were kept around him.

"Almost." Daoist Chu replied. "I'm just looking for something that can extract the Qi signature of the Chimeric beasts." He stated.

"These won't work?" Lin Mu saw a lot of materials that were suitable for that around Daoist Chu. Fiind updated novels at novelhall.com

They were all meant to be used in a Qi extraction and isolation array.

"I'm afraid these might not be enough. We need something stronger than that too. The Qi signature of the Chimeric beasts is very... Tangled from what I've seen. Even if we do extract it, I fear we may get mixed responses from the array." Daoist Chu expressed his concern.

"Hmm... what kind of material do you need specifically?" Lin Mu asked.

"Something that is affordable and can withstand the volatility of the Chimeric Qi." Daoist Chu replied.

"Let me see," Lin Mu glanced at the list, while also letting Xukong know of it.

The only person left now was Qiao De, who seemed to be having a rather confused expression.

"What's up?" Lin Mu asked.

"Yeah, you seem rather perplexed." Daoist Chu saw that too.

"Because I am." Qiao De said while holding a jade slip. "Are you unsure of getting something?" Lin Mu asked. "No... I'm unsure because the list is wrong." Qiao De replied.

"Huh? Wrong? How?" Daoist Chu didn't understand.

"Take a look." Qiao De said, handing the jade slip to the man. "The copy of the list we made does not match the list here." "How's that possible?" Lin Mu raised his brows. "I'm sure I copied everything exactly." "And yet, there's stuff missing." Qiao De added. "What should I look at?" Daoist Chu asked, his immortal sense inside the Jade slip.

"The Vile Guarding Immortal Pill." Qiao De replied.

Lin Mu recognized this pill and knew that it was one of the pills that was good against preventing the Baleful Energies from entering one's meridians. It was one of the best suited pills they could keep while they were here, to guard against it.

"Huh... it's really mismatched." Daoist Chu spoke.

"Let me take a look." Lin Mu said as he checked the jade slip for the name and then the walls for the Vile Guardian Pills. "Peacock Eye Pill, Stealth Breath Pill, Dark Lock Pill... Mallet Meridian Pill." He read the names, quickly finding the missing pill.

"See, according to the list it should have been right here between the Dark Lock Pill and the Mallet Meridian Pill." Qiao De stated. "It's gone..." Lin Mu couldn't believe it. "I'm certain I didn't make a mistake." He was sure as he had rechecked the list a few times.

Lin Mu had copied tens of thousands of documents, whether they be physical books, scrolls, or jade slips and he was yet to make an error in any of them. And those were complex documents unlike the relatively simple list of items.

Thus he was sure he wouldn't make a mistake like that. But no matter how much he rechecked, it was really gone.
