Chapter 2321  Survey Debrief

Lady Kang's words garnered the interest of everyone and they wished to learn more.

~SHUA~SHUA~SHUA~

But before they could speak much, more immortal Qi fluctuations were felt as the formation arrays informed them of the arrival of the rest.

"I suppose we can exchange the information with everyone here." Lin Mu suggested.

"Of course." Lady Kang agreed.

They didn't have to wait long and soon everyone was gathered.

They exchanged pleasantries while Lin Mu took a look at everyone. He could sense the differences in everyone's immortal Qi stores, and their aura.

Some had grown a bit weaker due to exhaustion but there was one that had grown stronger.

And it was none other than Monk Hushu!

'Looks like Monk Hushu had some gains in this time.' Lin Mu reckoned it was likely the improvement to his Buddhist aura and skills that was still affecting him.

The man was supposedly the second strongest after Crown Prince Feng Shun in the group, thus Lin Mu wondered how much he would have improved in this time.

"I think the most straightforward way would be to simply add the information of our Jade Slips to the array." Crown Prince Feng Shun suggested.

~SHAU~SHUA~SHUA~

Everyone put took out their jade slips and linked them with the array, causing a large transfer of the information.

~HUALA~

The formation screen turned blurry for a minute before new information appeared on it. Additionally, the map also expanded with more details being added to it.

Starting from the west, the Map had been expanded by more than two thousand kilometers and a vast mountain range was now visible on it. Additionally, the Death Qi boundaries as well as the Chimeric Beasts that were present there were also marked.

"What's this?" Ziran pointed to a spot in the mountains that was fully black. It was as if someone had accidentally splattered ink on the map.

"That is quite likely to be where a Chimera plant is." Crown Prince Feng Shun answered. "We couldn't enter it due to the thick Death Qi present there, but that only made us think that it might have been the Chimera plant that's gathering it." He explained.

"That's a great clue for us." Lin Mu couldn't help but say.

"Though of course, we don't know how long it would be there." Qiao De said. "The Death Qi might shift or the Chimera Plant can move. In the time we spent going past it and coming back, the entire area of Death Qi had shifted by about fifty kilometers." He revealed.

"Fifty Kilometers?" Daoist Chu calculated something in his mind. "If this was in about ten days of time, then we can assume there is a certain rate of drift to it. I might be able to add this to the tracking array I've made." He stated.

"That's good." Lin Mu said. "But did you all see any swarm of Chimeric Beasts around it?" he asked.

"There were a few small swarms of fifty to sixty thousand chimeric beasts spread, but none as big as the one's we fought." Crown Prince Feng Shun answered. "It might be the topography of the mountain range that probably forced the Chimeric Beasts to split up like that. We'll probably have to consider that in our hunt." Lady Kang said after hearing that.

Everyone noted this and moved onto the South that had been explored by an additional one thousand kilometers.

"This is less than the Crown prince." Lin Mu said looking at Elder Hu and Monk Hushu.

The two had been the one's to head south, thus it was a bit surprising since neither of them were weak. Plus, unlike the mountain range that Crown Prince and Qiao De had encountered, Monk Hushu and Elder Hu's are was just a flat plain for the most part.

"We kept on running into Chimeric beasts and walls of Death Qi that hindered our path." Elder Hu spoke.

"Those foul beasts were tracking us down and would not let us have any rest." Monk Hushu added.

"No wonder…" Lin Mu now understood why Monk Hushu's aura seemed to have gotten stronger. 'He got plenty of battle experience in this time.' He thought.

"Though we did find something peculiar." Monk Hushu stated before taking out something from his Spatial Storage treasure.

Everyone glanced at it, finding it to be a broken buckle. There were many scratches on it and it was quite battered. "We found this in the stomach of a Chimeric Beast." Elder Hu revealed.

"Really?" Crown Princess Shang asked in doubt. "We haven't found anything in the stomachs of other Chimeric Beasts so far, have we?" she said.

"Yeah…" Lin Mu narrowed his eyes. "The Chimeric Beasts digest everything and thus not even bones would be left behind if they ate someone." He added.

"And yet this thing managed to stay intact." Crown Prince Feng Shun scanned the broken buckle with his immortal sense, trying to see what it was made from. "It's part of an Immortal tool!" he soon discovered.

Lin Mu quickly checked hearing this to and confirmed the fact.

"It really is…" Lin Mu could sense the remnants of formation on the buckle.

"This might be from those unknown 'visitors' that got things from the reward list." Elder Hu stated. "Considering this buckle had managed to stay intact, it must not have been consumed too long ago." He added.

They knew that the digestion of the Chimeric beasts could even destroy immortal tools over time, thus it was a miracle that this thing had survived. "How long ago did you think this might have been eaten? Or its owner might have been eaten?" Qiao De asked.

"It's hard to tell. We've never tested the digestion rate of those Chimeric Beasts so far." Lin Mu replied. "But considering the traces of formations, it hasn't been longer than two weeks." He analyzed.

"Two weeks… that's not long." Ziran said, his expression turning serious. "Perhaps we might have to prioritize going to the South." Crown Princess Shang said. "If there are other people here, we need to see who they are."
