Chapter 924 - The Change In The World And Weaker Restrictions

The three patriarchs managed to get a hold of their wits before they looked at Lin Mu with speechless expressions.
"This…" You Yi found it hard to speak.
"Lin Mu, that…" the three of them mumbled for a few seconds while the white pattern disappeared back into Lin Mu's forehead.
Lin Mu opened his eyes after that happened and understood a lot more than before.
"How did you do that?" Patriarch You Yi finally questioned.
"I didn't do it. It was the world." Lin Mu answered.
"Not that… I mean… those words." Patriarch You Yi clarified.
"That too, it was the work of the world. You could say it is… growing." Lin Mu spoke.
"It's growing?" Patriarch Mingliang repeated.
"Yes. The restrictions that were on us are reducing since the world is getting stronger. The things that we weren't allowed to know previously will be understandable now. While it might not be all things, but eventually we will get to full clarity." Lin Mu explained.
"I see… and how did you know that this happened?" Patriarch Shandian asked, feeling a bit confused.
"Well, since we were talking about the invader and that it was sending out more of its avatars into our world, I concluded that the world's barrier might be weakening. But that was not all that I thought.
Another idea came to me and I wondered if it was true. And to confirm if it was true, all I needed to do was to see if I could reveal that I information." Lin Mu replied.
Hearing this, the three patriarchs understood a bit better. At the same time, they also understood the implications of it. If Lin Mu could speak those words, it meant that he already knew of them before.
And that was not something which should have been possible before, unless it was under very specific conditions. The patriarchs tacitly agreed not to ask or talk about that, since they knew that it was way beyond them and nothing good would come out of it.
If anything, they might be getting themselves into more trouble because of it.
Xukong who had been observing everything, silently felt a little excited after seeing this too.
"I might be able to teach you a bit more now." Xukong suddenly spoke.
Lin Mu silently nodded his head and felt happy about that too.
"So the invader's main body will be far stronger than what any of us will be able to contend against." Patriarch Mingliang said, bringing the conversation back to the earlier topic.
"Yes." Lin Mu spoke. "It will be a tall order for us to resist that, and I don't know if we can even do that." He added.
"That is true. But we can't just wait for it, can we?" Patriarch Shandian added.
"Of course not. But we aren't the only ones that are worried about it. The northern tribes should be aware of it too. Perhaps even better than us." Lin Mu replied.
You Yi stroked his beard and thought over it for a bit.
"So you mean to say… they will have a solution?" Patriarch You Yi questioned.
"Not just will… they must have a solution. Otherwise, what they are doing won't make sense. Their goal is to take over the continent and rule it like their ancestors desired all those years ago.
And to do that, they enlisted the help of an invader. But doing so, they must have known the risks. After all, this is not their first time doing that. They should have a way to control or restrain it.
If not, then this would just be a lost cause for them. The invader would simply take over the world and do whatever it wants to do with it, and the Northern tribes won't be able to do anything at all either.
The worst thing of this all is that we don't know what the goal of this invader is." Lin Mu answered in detail.
The three patriarchs had faces of realization and understood Lin Mu's thinking.
"So we will get the way to stop the invader from the northern tribes after we defeat them?" Patriarch Shandian asked for clarity.
"That is the worst case scenario. If it really comes to that, it means that we failed to act in time. Ideally, we would have defeated the northern tribes and the Invader's traces would be wiped before that.
The world will help us in this too of course, or I would not have been ordained." Lin Mu replied.
Hearing this, the Patriarchs felt far better. For a minute there, they wondered if they were fighting for a lost cause, but now they felt relieved.

Their attention was pulled by the infected rabbit beast that was cowering in the cage. It was evident that it had been scared by the thunder.
"Huh… this is new." Lin Mu muttered. "How are the tests going with it?" he questioned.
The Long Cloud sect had been testing the invader to see what its weaknesses were in the month that they had it. Lin Mu had given it to them so that they could learn more about it, along with the characteristic of the invader.
The two corpses of the earlier hosts were also given to the sect to study.
"We have had some discoveries about it indeed. It seems to be weak to fire on some level and is afraid of it though it might be more dependent on the cultivation base of the host as well.
It takes over the host and gives it characteristics that are innate to itself, such as the dark and slimy skin along with the bony structures. It also makes the hosts resistant to minor and small injuries while increasing its healing capabilities to some level.
It is also hungry all the time and will eat wherever is given to it. We think that the invader is gathering the cultivation base and nutrients from the host. It quite possibly drains them and there is no change in them at first, but the moment it leaves the host, the host dies.." Patriarch You Yi explained.
