Walker Of The Worlds

Chapter 2556 Repairs And Return

The pilgrimage to the Primordial Temple of Space was something Xukong had planned for Lin Mu to experience at some point, but he had not yet decided on the appropriate time. The enlightenment one could gain from the temple was highly dependent on the individual, and to Xukong, Lin Mu wouldn't benefit as much from it at his current stage.

This was why Xukong had been delaying it, compounded by the fact that the right conditions had not been met. While he could show Lin Mu the temple again in the future, the benefits from repeated exposure would likely be diminished. As such, it was better to space out these visits. However, since Xing Duyi had desired the pilgrimage and Xukong was obligated to fulfill this wish, he reasoned it was an opportune moment for Lin Mu to experience it as well. The outcome had exceeded Xukong's expectations, as Lin Mu managed to earn some enlightenment from the visit.

Unlike Xing Duyi, who had spent thousands of years comprehending the Spatial Dao, Lin Mu was still in the early stages of his journey. Naturally, the benefits they derived from the pilgrimage were bound to differ.

"We should head back up," Lin Mu said after checking the time. "It seems we've been here for over a day already."

"Ah, yes. Losing track of time in the presence of something so profound is expected," Xing Duyi agreed as he rose to his feet.

Lin Mu conducted a final check of the space around them to ensure everything was stable. Once he confirmed there were no issues, the two ascended back to the deck of the ship.

The deck was relatively empty, as most of the crew and passengers were resting and recovering from the grueling battle they had endured earlier. The only ones present on the deck were Lin Mu's companions, the Immortal Court Envoy Liu, and a few others, including Mei Nienzhen and Childe Wildfire.

Crown Prince Feng Shun stood at the helm, assisting Daoist Chu and Envoy Liu with the ship's repairs.

"How's the ship?" Lin Mu inquired as he approached them.

"Ah, Daoist Lin Mu and Temple Head," Crown Prince Feng Shun greeted them warmly.
