Walker Of The Worlds

Several hours passed by as Lin Mu and the people of the Long Cloud sect discussed the plans when finally Jingming Shang messaged again.

Lin Mu picked up the communication jade slip and found that it was humming non stop.

'Seems like he got a long message…' Lin Mu thought as he held it.

The moment he did, he could hear the long message in his mind.

"Senior Lin Mu, I've found what you wanted.

We investigated the materials of the Horse Manticore and found that many have been sold in the past two years. Of these, a majority were in the form of hair and poison. There were some more ingredients auctioned in the capital of the empire too, but its source was hidden.

We did a little indirect tracing and learned that the materials had actually come from the northern lands!" Jingming Shang said.

Hearing this, Lin Mu raised his brows, as this was not what he had expected. He knew how difficult it was to control the Horse Manticore and that transporting a beast like that over such a large distance without it losing control was even more difficult.

Generally, the beast taming abilities of this world were not that good and the methods they used took a long time to work. Thus ideally, they would have to tame the beast as soon as possible after capturing it which would be difficult if they were transporting it over a large distance.

And taming it closer to the forest was also not a viable choice, since taming them might take months to even years. Especially a beast that was already at the Nascent soul realm and had intelligence almost on the level of a human.

Thus, taming a beast like this should only be possible for someone that was located more close to the Great Southern Forest.

"Are you sure it is the Northern lands?" Lin Mu questioned.

"We were confused too at first, but then realized that it was not the true source. The materials were simply being rerouted through there." Jingming Shang said, making Lin Mu think why the man had not said that directly at start.
