Chapter 1915 Dao Insights And Horn Carving Dao Embryo

The Dao Embryo of Head Elder was absorbing Dao Insights and the Dao Traces around it kept on transforming into them.

This was the first time Lin Mu was witnessing it, and as such, paid full attention to it.

ʼDao Traces transforming into Dao Insights… is this the next stage of the Dao Embryo?ʼ Lin Mu wondered.

He observed the Knife Dao Embryo, and saw that other than the runes on it changing, there was no other physical change. At least outwardly there was nothing that could be detected. But as Lin Mu continued to observe, he saw that it was actually the Dao Insights that were being imprinted on it.

ʼThe original runes were made from the Dao Traces, but now they are being erased and being replaced by new runes formed from Dao Insights… in a way, it is a qualitative transformation.ʼ Lin Mu thought to himself.

Lin Mu was the only one who was able to understand what was going on with the Head Elder. Shuijing Mingzhu and Shuijing Ju, on the other hand, lacked understanding. In fact, other than the Dao Traces, they couldnʼt even sense the Dao Insights.

To them, it felt like the Dao insights were disappearing from the Head Elderʼs Dao Embryo. It was an astonishing thing and made them a bit concerned.

ʼWill the Head Elder be fine?ʼ Shuijing Ju thought.

ʼIs Great Grandfather not having a breakthrough?ʼ Shuijing Mingzhu wondered.

They didnʼt voice out their concerns though, as they didnʼt wish to disturb the old man. This was a very crucial and sensitive moment and even the smallest disturbance could lead to the end of the enlightenment. There was no way they could do something like that.

Plus, there was Lin Mu with them too, and since he wasnʼt doing anything, they reckoned things were fine.

Minute after minute passed and the process continued. Lin Mu observed it all and tried to analyze it as well. He wished to understand further about the Dao Embryo and the Dao Insights so that he would be able to use them for his own progress too.

By now, Lin Mu had also figured out what Dao Embryo the Head Elder had.

In fact, it was one of the first things he had thought about in order to know just how the progress was happening.

ʼHorn Carving Knife Dao Embryo… A rather specialized formation Dao Embryo that isnʼt seen often.ʼ Lin Mu recognized.

Lin Mu knew about this, as he had not only read about them but also discussed various Formation Dao Embryos with Xukong. Among them, he had learned about the specialized Formation Dao Embryos which boosted specific aspects of formations.

The Horn Carving Knife Dao Embryo for example, had an amplifying effect when it was used to carve runes into animal materials. While it could obviously be used for making normal formations too and would have an assistive benefit, it was still intended for direct carvings.

As such, it was best to be used on hard animal materials like horns, bones, scales, claws, and tempered leathers.

Generally speaking, it was the kind of Dao Embryo that would be a lot more useful for Immortal Tool Refiners, as they could use it to inscribe runes and add formations to their creations. Because of this, Lin Mu was a bit confused as to why the Head Elder had chosen this to make.

ʼOr perhaps this is what naturally came to him?ʼ Lin Mu wondered.

There were many other suitable Dao Embryos that could have also been created other than this. Many of which would actually be easier to form too.

An hour passed like this, while Lin Mu was deep in observation. But despite that, a part of his mind was still dutifully ensuring that no disturbance happened. He was doing the task that had been requested of him.

~humm~

Finally, the process came to an end, as all the runes on the Horn Carving Knife Dao Embryo were now replaced. They looked vastly different from before and were complex too. Even for Lin Mu, other than a handful of runes, he couldnʼt even read the others.

They were written in Dao Script of course, but were of an obscure form.

The Head Elder opened his eyes once all the Dao Traces disappeared, making Shuijing Ju and Shuijing Mingzhu relieved.

”It is fine now.” Lin Mu spoke, causing the two juniors to relay the message to the others.

~THUD~THUD~THUD~

The doors of the hall opened up, as the other elders and important members of the clan rushed in.

”HEAD ELDER!” They called out anxiously.

”Calm down.” The old man spoke in an energetic voice. ”Everything is fine.”

”You… Have you had a breakthrough?” They asked right away.

”No…” The Head Elder shook his head. ”But I have certainly taken the step in the right direction in terms of the Dao of formations.” He added, making all of their eyes glow up.

”That calls for a celebration!” They cheered.

”Of course… but this wasnʼt without some help.” Head Elder said before looking at Lin Mu. ”I have to thank Daoist Mu Lin for giving me the chance for this. If not for his Dao Embryo, I wouldnʼt be able to know how to proceed.” The old man credited.

~CLAP~

All the members that had arrived cupped their hands at that moment.

”We thank Daoist Mu Lin for his help.” They all said including Shuijing Mingzhu and Shuijing Ju.

”It was nothing. I didnʼt do much.” Lin Mu shook his head.

”No… it is still something that cannot be done by others. As such, the banquet certainly needs to be done, a big one!” Head Elder announced.

”WOOHOO!” The members were excited.

After all, it was a matter of great joy not just for the Shuijing clan, but for the entire Serene Glass Valley. It was not every day that one of the Senior-most members would have progress like this.

And with the Head Elderʼs importance, it only raised the power of the Valley to another level.
