Walker Of The Worlds

In the four days that Lin Mu and Little Shrubby had traveled, they had encountered several beasts on their way.

But much to their surprise, the beasts did not necessarily attack them. Even when they passed by their territories, the beasts would mostly warn them and would only attack if they came too close. Even if it was now evening, the beasts seemed to be wary.

This was partly due to Little Shrubby being there, as his presence acted as a deterrent to most of the weaker beasts. His bloodline suppression was working decently and even if it did not scare them right off, it did make them think twice before acting.

All this did confirm a few conjectures for Lin Mu though.

'It is certain that the beasts did not attack us simply because we were there in their territory… they were probably attracted by the Evergreen Pillar Bamboo Fruits.' Lin Mu thought to himself.

It was a common thing too as beasts in the wilderness relied on immortal fruits and herbs to further their cultivation base. After all, they didn't always have access to Alchemical pills like human cultivators, and as such these herbs and fruits acted like cultivation resources for them.

Lin Mu linked this immortal fruit seeking behavior of the beasts with the occurrence of the Natural Befuddling Array.

'Perhaps the Natural Befuddling array's appearance is linked with the time when the Evergreen Pillar Bamboo fruits are birthed on them too?' Lin Mu wondered.

It did make sense if the Natural Befuddling Array was a protective measure of the Evergreen Pillar Bamboos to prevent the beasts or other creatures from eating their fruits before they were fully ready.

Once they were ready, it was fine if the beasts ate them. As these very same beasts would then wander the forest and other areas, dispersing the seeds in their dung allowing the Evergreen Pillar Bamboos to spread even more.

Of course, Lin Mu didn't know if it was really effective or not now, as the Evergreen Pillars forest seemed to have reached a limit. Not to mention, most of the Evergreen Pillar Bamboos seemed to be linked to each other and had the same root system.

In a way, the entire forest was possibly born from a single individual, quite similar to the Snow Glass Pear trees where the source was none other than Elder Pear.
