In front of Lin Mu laid a half buried crystal.

It was about the size of an orange and actually had a rough spherical shape. It was the first time Lin Mu was seeing a crystal that was naturally spherical as most of the ones he had seen were spike shaped or had irregular formations.

"It's a bit warm…" Lin Mu picked up the crystal feeling the unique aura thats as contained within it.

The strangest thing was that the Blood Essence Crystal didn't have the same unconformable bloody aura like the rest of the Desolate Blood Battlefield and its continent. Instead it felt warm and had a faint vitality to it.

Lin Mu even probed it using his Immortal sense, but didn't find anything more. It didn't seem similar to to an Immortal Essence crystal either.

'Guess it needs to be processed before it gains those properties…' Lin Mu thought to himself.

He put the Blood Essence crystal away for now and jumped out of the hole.

"Let's go little Shrubby. We'll head straight to the location of the ruins now." Lin Mu said, knowing that if he delayed any longer the others could catch up.

~ROAR~

Little Shrubby let out a roar before starting to run again.

Lin Mu kept the Blood Vein tracker ready, just in case they were about to run into another such place. Since his goal was to get to the location of the ruins and Violet Mystic life tree as soon as possible, he decided to avoid all places with the Blood Essence crystal.

He had already seen the effects of the Baleful energy and had heeded Xukong's advice. There was no need to delay his arrival by something that could be avoided.

'Still the time needed to reach the ruins is quite long… I have at least three to four weeks…' Lin Mu thought to himself.

Lin Mu was just sitting on Little Shrubby's back, thus had an idea about doing more things.

'I may as well use the Tri-essence pills to continue cultivating. I might be able to use at least two by the time we reach the ruins.' Lin Mu estimated.

He wasn't worried about encountering any foes as Little Shrubby was more than capable of dodging them. As for the weird Stone flesh creature that they had encountered earlier, Lin Mu considered its attack to be a fluke.

There was no way it could hit them with its skills or speed.
