Chapter 2496 Power Of The Heaven Silencing Seal
Chapter 2496 Power Of The Heaven Silencing Seal
Xukong's words had rang true as Lin Mu was indeed full of questions.
The information gained from the Soul Fragment was only partial and served to ignite more of Lin Mu's curiosity. Lin Mu had quickly entered the Sleepscape after returning to the ship. He didn't know how long it might take, thus reckoned it was better for them to be back on their way while he did this.
~SHUA~
The box holding the Heaven Silencing Seal appeared in Lin Mu's hands as he carefully watched it.
"Stop it right away if you feel like something is going wrong." Xukong warned.
"I will…" Lin Mu nodded as he opened the box.
~CLACK~
The green crystalline seal was calm in the box, showing no sign of it holding the great powers it was said to hold. The concern now was that the Seal was made out of Chaos Unity Crystals, which was aid to have the property of corrupting and destroying Qi.
This was a problem since in order to use the Heaven Silencing Seal, Lin Mu would have to first connect with it using his Immortal Sense. As such, if the concern was true his Immortal Sense would get destroyed.
'Even if it does, I'll have to try it to see.' Lin Mu thought to himself.
"It will be fine. Go on." Lin Mo though, seemed to be fully confident of it and spurred Lin Mu on.
~HUU~
"Here we go…" Lin Mu let out breath and extended a small tendril of his Immortal Sense. It touched the surface of the Heaven Silencing Seal as Lin Mu braced himself for anything that was about to come. "Huh?" but unlike what his concern had been, nothing of that sort happened and his Immortal Sense was completely fine.
"I told you so," Lin Mo said in an amused tone.
With this confirmed, Lin Mu was now a lot more confident to and right away tried to make a connection.
~HUALA~
His Immortal Sense entered the Heaven Silencing Seal and he felt a rather comforting feeling. Following the method for all other Immortal Tools and weapons, Lin Mu branded it with his Immortal Sense, making it come under his ownership. ~HONGLONG~
As soon as he did that, the Heaven Silencing Seal let out a wave of energy as it floated up from the box.
It spun in the air and glowed brightly, almost making it look like the crystalline tentacles and appendages on it were moving. The characters on the totem seemingly came alive as projected themselves into the air.
Xukong watched it and could finally read them properly and so could Lin Mu.
"Heaven Silencing, Upheaval Bringing…" Lin Mu read the words.
The words were not something that could be lightly said and the meaning held by them was deep. Particularly for Xukong who focused on the latter two words.
"Upheaval…" It was a word that he had heard a lot in the past. 'Every time I've heard it, seldom ever did anything good came out of it.' Xukong thought to himself. C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.
Now that he was seeing it again, he couldn't help but have mixed feelings about it.
"Can you feel it?" Lin Mo questioned in Lin Mu's mind as a stream of information appeared.
"I can…" Lin Mu could instinctively feel the functions of the Heaven Silencing Seal as well as how to use it. There were two functions that he could use right away, which were none other than the Seal's ability to stop Heavenly Tribulations as well as its ability to suppress the limits set by the Heavens that came in the form of a World's restrictions.
But these weren't the only functions present. Lin Mu could tell that were actually several more functions that he was unable to access right now. Even if he had the control over the Heaven Silencing Seal, it simply wouldn't respond to him if he wished to know more about them.
'It seems like I am still lacking something to know about them.' Lin Mu thought to himself. 'Considering the kind of tool it is, it wouldn't be surprising that it has complex conditions to using it.' He reckoned.
Though for now the other functions didn't matter as what he wanted was among the first two functions anyways.
"I will use it now, Senior." Lin Mu stated.
"Very well." Xukong was ready and stood in front of Lin Mu.
~HUMMMM~
As soon as Lin Mu activated the Heaven Silencing Seal, it activated the second function: The Heavenly Shroud!
A translucent dome of energy extended out from the Heaven Silencing Seal as it covered Lin Mu and Xukong within it. "It's done." Lin Mu spoke, but didn't feel particularly different, but once he looked at Xukong he was almost shook.
The spider's ten eyes were glowing brightly and a faint pressure was exuding from him as well.
"Senior?" Lin Mu called to him.
"I didn't expect it to be this effective." Xukong finally spoke. "My powers have… increased." "They have?" Lin Mu was surprised.
Xukong's power as an avatar was massive, and even if it was just a fragment of his true power, it was still enough to destroy a world. But if he wished to, he could draw out even more power through his link with his main body.
Usually this was limited by the kind of world Lin Mu was in, and in the Xiao Fan world it was highly limited. In the Rust Sky World, the limit had been relaxed by quite a bit and Xukong had more power. But now he felt like at least half of his Avatar's power was available to him!
"Can you try using it?" Lin Mu wondered how they were actually like.
"Yes." Xukong was curious about it too and extended his leg.
~SHUA~
A thin thread extended from it and touched the bare air before starting to shrink and pulling back on the Fabric of Space.
The Immortal Apple Tree that was about a hundred meters from them suddenly came close, as if they had just been moved.
"This… Spatial Shrinking?!" Lin Mu recognized the phenomena. "Indeed." Xukong wouldn't have been able to do soothing like this with his limits before. The demonstration might have been rather small scale, but its implications were quite heavy. "UGH!" But shortly after, Lin Mu felt a great drain on his Qi as his stores rapidly fell to half! "What!?" Xukong sensed it too and was shocked. "The Seal is draining your Qi." He quickly understood.
"It was… From the usage of your skill," Lin Mu replied, as he understood from the link. "While the Heaven Silencing Seal can limit the effects of the Heavenly Restrictions, any action done within it will also drain my Qi accordingly." He stated.
"Looks like we'll have to be careful with it." Xukong replied. "We should only limit it to information for now." He stated.
"Yes… We need to see how much it will drain." Lin Mu agreed, as that was the main reason for them to attempt it in the first place.
"Ask your first question then." Xukong spoke.
~HUU~
"In the Withering Spirit Daoist's memories I heard her master talk about something about becoming a True Celestial." Lin Mu asked. "What did he mean? Isn't the Withering Spirit Daoist already a Celestial?" Xukong had already gone through the memories of the Soul Fragment too thus knew exactly what Lin Mu meant.
"The Celestial Realm is a bit different from the Immortal and Spirit Realms. There is a reason why the majority of the immortals never manage to enter it… the conditions for it are far too high.
But even in those high conditions, there are two different tiers. If one cannot fulfill all the best conditions to become a Celestial, they can take the slightly easier route and become what is called as a Bestowed Celestial." Xukong revealed.
"So there isn't just one class of Celestial?" Lin Mu was a bit confused.
"Yes, in General one when becomes a Celestial, they will fall under two categories. The First is the True Celestial, which is the real, unfettered form of a Celestial. Whereas the second is the Bestowed Celestial, which has several limits." Xukong answered.
"How is it determined what category one will fall in?" Lin Mu questioned further.
"There are actually multiple methods of becoming a Celestial, but the easiest among them is to simply ask a True Celestial. They have the ability to grant an Immortal the ability to become a Celestial using their Celestial Will! Celestials of this kind are called as Bestowed Celestials. And while they are hundreds of times more powerful a Transcendent Immortal, they are still limited in their capability when compared to a True Celestial. Not to mention their life will also be in the hands of a True Celestial as one of the conditions to becoming a Bestowed Celestial is to leave a part of their soul with the True Celestial. Essentially speaking, a Bestowed Celestial is forever bound to the True Celestial that made them." Xukong stated.
