The Diamond Mountain Talisman was a talisman that relied on skills rather than materials to make.


    It was one of the more economical Talismans that one could make. Plus as long as one had the skill, they would be able to make as many of them as they wanted with little investment.


    But even then, there were different levels of it, and the higher one went, the more difficult it got. Lin Mu had difficulties making the Great Grade Diamond Mountain talisman and had only made a single one after many failures.


    And yet, here he was making another Great Grade Diamond Mountain Talisman that too in the air directly!

    The Great Grade Diamond Mountain Talisman floated in the air calmly, keeping its power contained. But Lin Mu knew that if he wanted to he could always activate it with just a thought.


    "The Rune Shaping Brush Dao Embryo increases the proficiency of making formations by a lot." Lin Mu was pleased with his new Dao Embryo.


    And this was when the Dao Embryo was just at the Embryo Birth Stage. Once it progressed more, he was sure that it would only get better and better.


    "That isn''t all. You''ve also made apatible Dao Shell for it which further enhances its ability." The Saintess spoke.


    Lin Mu gave a slight nod, feeling a bit surreal.


    He had not expected to make a new Dao Embryo this soon after all. He now had three of them and would need to nourish all of them. Though he reckoned that for the Rune Shaping Brush, he would be able to improve it by simply using it.


    After all, utilizing it would improve his skill for formations and runes, thereby deepening his understanding of the Dao.


    Lin Mu stored the Dao Embryo into his Dantian, letting it be nourished by the qi within it. His Dantian now had two Dao Embryos within it.


    His Nascent soul sat upon the True Earth Heart and its Dao Shell that was like a shield, while the Rune Shaping Brush settled down next to it looking like a Ink Stone with a brush.


    There was his formless Dao Embryo with the Four Faceted Neb too, but it mostly stayed hidden. Lin Mu was still trying to deepen his understanding with it, but was stuck at a bottleneck.


    He knew there was no use forcing it, and that he would have to take it slow.


    For now he had other things he needed to focus on. Lin Mu looked at Little Shrubby who was deep in cultivation. He could already see the energy fluctuations around him having increased by a lot.


    "The Tribtion is close now," Lin Mu spoke.


    "Just a day or two now." The Saintess agreed.


    "Is there anything more we need to do?" Lin Mu asked, just in case.


    "No." The Saintess shook her head. "We''ve done enough. The rest is all unto Little Shrubby." She added.


    "Alright." Lin Mu replied before calling out the twins.


    They had been in the Sleepscape for a while, and Lin Mu decided it was time for them to have some time out. Plus they might have some gains if they witnessed the tribtion too.


    Even if their talent was high due to their bloodline, it was always better to gain more experience.


    ~HISS~ HISS~


    Xiao Yin and Xiao Yang let out an excited hiss, as they saw Lin Mu and the Saintess.


    "Were you two good?" Lin Mu rubbed their heads while they nodded affectionately.


    ~HISS~ HISS~


    "Little Shrubby will have a breakthrough soon. You two should see it too." Lin Mu suggested.<novelsnext></novelsnext>


    ~SA~SA~SAA~


    The twins enthusiastically nodded their heads and looked at their seniorpanion.


    Little Shrubby had taken his position as the eldest among Lin Mu''s beasts and the twins were epting of it too. Thus they were interested in seeing Little Shrubby and him growing stronger.


    Lin Mu left the twins out, while he went to his room.


    ''May as well ponder on my Dao Embryo more and get used to it…'' Lin Mu thought to himself.


    He passed the day like that, and Little Shrubby''s tribtion got closer. By the second day, they were finally strong enough that everyone could feel it in the courtyard.


    "It''s time…" Lin Mu opened his eyes and walked out of his room.


    He could see Little Shrubby still on the table but a swirling mass of green energy was surrounding him.


    "The Dao Traces are getting denser." Lin Mu muttered.


    ~SHUA~


    And a few minutester, it finally happened.


    ~WHOOSH~


    Little Shrubby jumped off the table and rapidly grew to his full size.


    His full sized body emitted strong qi fluctuations that made the air tremble.


    ~ROAR~


    Little Shrubby lifted his head and let out a loud roar. If not for the fact that the courtyard was isted, it would have echoed throughout the Capital city.


    Lin Mu watched with a serious expression as the energy of the tribtion approached. He activated his spatial perception to see just where the tribtion was going toe from and soon spotted the cracks.


    "The Spatial cracks… they aren''t in the sky this time." Lin Mu discovered. "They are surrounding Little Shrubby this time."


    Unlike the immortal tribtion like before, this was noting from the sky. Instead it was directly presenting itself around Little Shrubby.


    ~HUALA~


    The spatial cracks were still invisible, but got wider. And when they did, a green energy leaked out of it. It was none other than the Tribtion energy!


    The Tribtion energy transformed when it appeared in the world and turned into hundreds of sharp thorny vines.


    "This…" Lin Mu was a bit surprised seeing the Wood Elemental Tribtion.


    ~WHIP~


    The vines moved like fast whips and struck Little Shrubby.


    ~ROAR~


    The beast let out a roar and tried to dodge them, but was unable to do so with the sheer number of them. Not to mention, they wereing from all around his body, so moving was no use.


    When he moved, the vines would move along him. There was simply no escaping this.
