Alchemist Ruoxian's words had certainly incited Lin Mu's interest and now there wasn't a chance Lin Mu was going to give up on this opportunity.

"There is a great chance that the cache of Immortal Essence Crystals has now turned into an immortal Essence Crystal mine. Forget one vein, with how much time has passed, there might be several of them." Alchemist Ruoxian spoke with hope.

"Mmm… and with several mines, the chances of there being a Hundred year old Essence Spring Stalactite should also increase." Lin Mu finally understood the man's plan.

"Indeed." Alchemist Ruoxian nodded his head.

"Though… if you had this map since before, why haven't you gone to get it yourself? Or if you're busy, I'm sure you can afford to hire other people too." Lin Mu inquired just in case.

"Ahaha~ I might be at the Fourth Tribulation Stage of the Immortal realm, but I do not have the same battle experience that others might have." Alchemist Ruoxian said in a self-depreciating manner.

"Oh?" Lin Mu raised a brow in surprise..

"I'm not ashamed to admit I'm somewhat of a greenhouse flower. I was taught by my family since the start and was kept protected. And when my talents as an alchemist were discovered, they nurtured me accordingly as well, and I got to avoid most conflicts." Alchemist Ruoxian revealed a bit about himself.

"So while I'm confident of my talent in alchemy, I cannot say the same about my fighting skills." He admitted.

"Knowing about one's weaknesses and flaws is good. It prevents us from becoming complacent and making mistakes." Lin Mu couldn't find fault with the man for this.

"I've made mistakes in the past and learned from this. Which is why I know not to exert myself where I won't see good results." Alchemist Ruoxian replied.
