Walker Of The Worlds

Holding the Mid Grade Immortal Essence Crystals in his hands, Lin Mu felt the rapid infusion of Immortal Essence into his body.

The amount entering his body was easily several times the amount from a Low Grade Immortal Essence crystal. And not just that, but he could actually feel a change in the Aperture.

'It can actually grow already?' Lin Mu was surprised.

In the Aperture Creation Realm, one progressed by first opening their Aperture and then expanding it. But this took a lot of effort, and didn't happen right away. It wasn't an issue of resources either, but rather one of time.

One needed to give some time before the Aperture would be fully ready to expand. If one tried to rush, they could fail and their Aperture could easily get damaged. But much to Lin Mu's surprise, the Aperture was expanding on its own.

'Is this normal?' Lin Mu didn't know, thus he focused on his Aperture.

He observed it closely, ensuring there were no issues and that the Aperture stayed stable. And after absorbing the entire mid grade Immortal Essence crystal Lin Mu had confirmed it, there really was no damage to it.

'Huh… according to Senior Xukong's advice, it wouldn't expand until much later… how's it doing it now?' Lin Mu was confused.

He decided to test it a few more times before asking Xukong though. He wanted to see if it was just a one time thing or if this was really how it was going to stay.

Lin Mu thus picked up another mid grade Immortal Essence crystal and absorbed all the Immortal Essence wisps in it. The mid grade Immortal Essence crystals took longer for him to absorb, roughly more than a minute. This was several times more than the low grade Immortal Essence crystal, which was gone in seconds.

Six mid grade Immortal Essence crystal later, Lin Mu was sure of it.

"There really is no damage, and the Aperture is stable…" Lin Mu confirmed,

He measured the size of the Aperture and saw that it had grown by a very small number. This growth might seem too small to be considered significant, but it was still big enough to make Lin Mu worried.

"Senior, how is my Aperture able to grow already?" Lin Mu questioned, unable to figure it out himself.

But what he didn't know was the fact that Xukong was in the same dilemma. He had been observing Lin Mu for a while and had not been cultivating. After all, Lin Mu was in a critical juncture and thus he wanted to be there to face any issues there were.

Still, Xukong had no idea how it was possible for Lin Mu's Aperture to expand already.

'This does not fall into the purview of the technique… it isn't even a question of talent either… this is just the basic tenet of the technique, one cannot expand it until some time later.' Xukong went over the technique in his own mind.
