Chapter 2307 Splitting Up And Making A Refinement Room

Lin Mu's guess was highly concerning not just to himself, but also the others.
"We definitely need to check who's here." Crown Prince Feng Shun replied. "And if they really are here, how they got in." He added.
"Indeed." Ziran was in agreement too. "It would be far too risky to go on without knowing that. After all we have no idea what kind of person they might be or how many of them are here." Everyone was in agreement and knew that doing this was important.
"How do we go about this now?" Daoist Chu asked. "We still need to prepare things for the Chimera Plants and the beasts." He added.
"Hmm… I suppose those of us that need to work on things can head to the Base while the others can survey the rest of the areas and search for any signs of other people entering." Lin Mu said after thinking for a bit.
"That sounds workable." Lady Kang nodded. "Me and Ziran will work on the poisons then." Crown Princess Shang spoke.
"I'll work on the formation arrays to track down the Chimera Plant and Chimeric Beasts." Daoist Chu replied.
"I'll also figure out methods of breaking through the defenses of the Chimera Plant." Lin Mu stated. "I think I might be able to figure out something new." He added.
"Then I suppose that leaves, us to survey the plane." Crown Prince Feng Shun stated. "Hmm, six of us so we can divide ourselves into teams of two and pick a direction. We can exclude this direction since we've already seen enough. Though we might have to go further than this later." He added.
"That's good. We don't know what we might encounter, so being in pairs is the safer option." Monk Hushu was in approval.
Having decided that, they quickly divided the groups.
Monk Hushu and Elder Hu would go together in the north, Crown Prince Feng Shun and Qiao De would go to the south while Lady Kang and Min Ju would go to the east. The first two groups left right away, but when Lady Kang was about to leave Lin Mu thought of something.
"Oh wait!" He called out. "Take little Shrubby with you." He said, calling the beast out as well.
Little Shrubby had already been informed of what needed to be done, and he had finished his cooking too. "Go with Lady Kang." He spoke.
"Okay~" Little Shrubby agreed right away.
"You sure?" Lady Kang asked.
"Yeah, the eastern region has not been explored by us much beyond the initial five hundred kilometers. Plus Little Shrubby will allow you to escape trouble easily too." Lin Mu replied. "And with his speed you can explore more of the region." He added.
"Alright, he'll be of great help." Lady Kang accepted.
With that the three groups had left, and Lin Mu and the other three started making their way back to the base.
Along the way, they encountered a few stray Chimeric Beasts, which they didn't hesitate in killing and got a few credits more. By the time they reached the base, they had obtained another fifty thousand credits just from killing the stray beasts.
It was a decent gain for a relatively short trip and now they could get to working on the tasks they had prepared.
"Looks like it's time to expand the base a bit more." Lin Mu spoke. "I don't think the area is enough for you to use as a refining room, is it?" he asked.
"I was just about to ask you that." Ziran replied.
"I'll get it done." Lin Mu nodded his head. "Daoist Chu can you take care of the formations for the room?" he requested.
"Sure." Daoist Chu replied and got to working on them.
After all, a refinement room needed a sufficient amount of protection or it could very easily collapse. Or there could be leakage of Qi, fumes, flames and more from the inside which could cause disturbance to other places.
As such they needed to make sure the room was safe not just for others, but also the refiners.
Daoist Chu was no stranger to making such arrays and just had to follow a template to set up a Reinforcing Array, a Strengthening Array, a Qi Isolating Array, a Flame Warding Array and a Toxic Shielding Array. While he did that, Lin Mu got to opening a new room in the caves.
He made it three hundred square meters in area to ensure that they had plenty of space and also stabilized it with the rock pillars while carving the space out. It didn't take Lin Mu to finish that and Daoist Chu had only finished half of his work in that time.
As such, he joined the man and finished the arrays before the duo of refiners could get to work.
"Thank you, Daoist Mu Lin, Daoist Chu. This will be more than sufficient to work with." Crown Princess's Shang replied. "Yeah." Ziran agreed and took out a few objects that included tables, workbenches and two large cauldrons.
Lin Mu glanced at the two cauldrons, finding them to be relatively simple Alchemy Cauldrons. They had a simple design and had the basic four legs on them along with a smooth concave lid. Crown Princess Shang also took out a cauldron, but this one was simply massive. It was over ten meters wide at its mouth, and in the middle it was at least fifteen meters wide. It had eight legs and six handles, along with a lid that was shaped like a elephant head.
~POOOOOOOOONGGGG~
As soon as the Cauldron was placed on the ground, the illusory figure of an elephant appeared over it and trumpeted loudly. At the same time, strong immortal Qi fluctuations were felt, making Lin Mu sure that this cauldron was a High Grade immortal tool, that had an almost guaranteed chance of reaching the Peak Grade. Lin Mu looked at the illusory image closely, trying to identify what beast it was. The elephant was certainly not a normal elephant as its skin seemed to have layers upon layers of wrinkles that looked like a heavily frilled dress.
Its tusks were like polished silver and shone under the light of the arrays. It's trunk though was the most impressive, having several sequential bulges on it, as if they were all packed muscles.
It was rather unique as it wasn't streamlined like a normal elephant's trunk.
"It's spirit is fully developed?" Ziran observed.
"Not yet, it's lacking just one last push." Crown Princess Shang replied.
"What cauldron is this?" Lin Mu wondered. "That illusory image wasn't from its spirit, but rather due to the materials its made from isn't it?" he could sense a faint Bloodline Aura mixed in the energy fluctuations.
"You got that right." Crown Princess Shang nodded. "It's made from the Rampart Trumpet Elephant's bones and skin." She revealed.
Hearing this, Ziran seemed to have recognized it.
"Is this the same Cauldron that one of the previous Grandmaster Alchemist of the Northern Immortal Court used in his younger days?" Ziran asked.
"Oh? You know of it?" Crown Princess Shang was surprised too. "Not many know of this one."
"I've heard of it being one of the toughest Alchemy cauldrons. Though if I recall correctly, it is also terrible for more precise refinements." Ziran said after thinking for a bit.
"You're correct." Crown Princess Shang nodded her head. "I got this from the Immortal court as a reward for one of the missions. It'll be perfect for us as it is highly resilient against volatile materials and can also withstand poisons of various kinds." She explained.
"But won't it still be a hindrance for the refinement?" Lin Mu asked hearing all that.
"It's fine, I can manually manage that." Crown Princess Shang replied. "I am still a Master Immortal Alchemist." She said proudly.
"Ah of course. Then it should go well." Lin Mu stated.
"Crown Princess Shang has passed all but one alchemical exams in the Immortal Court." Daoist Chu spoke up. "If she passes that she'll be qualified to become a Grandmaster Alchemist." He revealed.
"Oh?" Lin Mu hadn't expected her achievements to be this high.
"The Grandmaster Examination is still to far for me. I'm lacking in both cultivation base and skill for that." Crown Princess Shang said, shaking her head. "I'd have to be at the Sixth Tribulation Stage of the Immortal realm to even attempt to take it." A Grandmaster Immortal Alchemist was a highly respected and difficult rank to reach and less than a fraction of Immortal Alchemist even qualified to take the examination. But those that could reach this level were basically set for life.
An Alchemist had a great demand no matter where they went, the pills made by them were one of the basic necessities of every immortal.
"Hmm, I don't think its something that'll hinder you for long." Lin Mu thought. "With your talent, you're bound to reach the Sixth Tribulation of the Immortal Realm."
