Chapter 1628 Obtaining The Tyrant Bull Marrow
Learning that the Crown prince himself had killed the Tyrant Bull, Lin Mu was a bit surprised.
'What do you think the cultivation base of this Tyrant Bull was senior?' Lin Mu questioned in his mind.
"Considering the size of its bones, it should be a young adult… Or a strong juvenile. Possibly at the Seventh Tribulation Stage of the Immortal realm." Xukong answered.
'Seventh Tribulation Stage of the Immortal Realm… So the crown prince battled a beast above his cultivation base and won.' Lin Mu got another marker for the man's strength.
While he himself could do the same, for even two cultivation bases above his current level, it was a different case with a beast like the Tyrant Bull. While the cultivation base of the Bull might be high, compared to another beast of the same level, it would still be a tier above.
Tyrant Bull was one of the stronger beasts and even a juvenile would be tough enough to kill a Seventh Tribulation stage immortal, not to mention a sixth stage one. This just proved the man's strength even more.
What was even more surprising was that this was done as a friendly completion and was not a fight for death.
'Looks like I'll have to be careful with the man.' Lin Mu thought to himself.
"The Crown Prince's strength is commendable." Lin Mu praised before closing the box.
There were six sets of leg bones in the box, all belonging to the Tyrant Bull.
The Tyrant Bull had six legs, thus there were more bones than normal. And each bone would yield more than enough marrow. In fact, Lin Mu could have used just 10% of the marrow he was getting and it would be fine.
'With this much marrow, I might even be able to directly breakthrough or something.' Lin Mu reckoned.
Even the bones were something he would make use of later to make weapons or tools. They were a high quality material too and would sell for a lot. In fact, it would be possible to use these bones for a Peak Grade Immortal Weapon too.
Their quality was very high.
"It's not the strongest beast I've fought. But I would place it in my top ten for sure." The prince bragged.
"That's amazing." Lin Mu didn't care how much the prince bragged as long as he was getting what he had come here for.
He then closed the box and quickly stored it away in the ring. The crown prince watched him do this, and then spoke again.
"Though I feel curious as to why you looked for the Tyrant Bull Marrow through a different channel, rather than going through the Indigo World Hegemony's own channels?" The Crown Prince questioned, making Lin Mu a bit alert.
"You surely jest, crown prince. Even if the Indigo World Hegemony has the Tyrant Bull Marrow up for sale, it is another matter being able to afford it." Lin Mu chuckled. "The only reason I even came here was because I didn't have to pay for it." He added.
"Ah! That does make sense." The crown prince had almost forgotten that it was still a matter of money in the end.
To someone privileged like him, simply giving it away like this was nothing. It hadn't taken him much effort to obtain it either. And if he really wanted to, he could probably get a lot more merely by asking.
"Though considering you are looking for this… You are intending to use it for Body Cultivation?" Feng Shun wasn't done with his questions yet.𝒇𝚛𝙚𝙚𝘸𝙚𝗯𝓃𝗼ѵ𝚎𝘭. c𝑜𝘮
"Yes." Lin Mu said simply, preparing for the next potential questions.
Lin Mu guessed that the man would ask his cultivation technique next. While it was something a little rude, for the crown prince who was literally in his own territory wouldn't care about something like that.
He could afford to offend half of the world and still be fine.
"I see… I'd recommended getting some calming herbs too." The Crown Prince suggested. "The Tyrant Bull Marrow is a rather violent and unstable material. I've heard of people exploding after consuming it because they couldn't handle it." He added.
"Ah yes! I've already considered the proper precautions." Lin Mu replied, feeling relieved that he didn't ask about the cultivation technique.
"Good. It would be a shame if you were to perish because of this." The Crown prince stated. "I expect to hear a lot of great things about you."
"Oh? How so?" Lin Mu inquired.
"I just have a hunch." Feng Shun replied. "Those who pursue knowledge often create waves in the world." He said before standing up.
He then tapped his hand on the stele and stored it away.
"Your appraisal will be useful for me. And perhaps this empire…" the man said before walking away.
The Crown prince left the hall and quickly disappeared. Lin Mu could tell that he had really gone away, since his aura had disappeared entirely.
~Phew~
With the man gone, Lin Mu took a breath of relief.
While he had managed to get through it, Lin Mu was still quite nervous.
"Thankfully the man was a lot better than other nobles I've seen." Lin Mu said.
"Strong too. He seems to have both the arrogance and strength to back it up." Xukong spoke.
"True… he's certainly the second strongest expert I've seen here so far." Lin Mu said. "Though I wonder who would win between General Niu Juo and The crown prince." He said curiously.
"It'll be hard to tell. While I'm inclined to have faith in the general, we don't know what kind of trump cards the crown prince might have." Xukong answered.
"Hmm… let's hope we don't have to clash with him. At least he doesn't seem to be the bothersome type." Lin Mu said before walking out of the pavilion too.
Now that he had obtained what he had come for, he couldn't wait to rush back home to use it.
If everything went according to his plan, chances were before the tournament Lin Mu would have cultivated the Tyrant Bull marrow Secrets!
