Chapter 2288 A Potential Transcendent Skill?
'This attack might already be equal to a Seventh Tribulation Stage Realm immortal realm experts attack.' Crown Prince Feng Shun thought. 'If Daoist Mu Lin can execute it multiple times…' he could imagine how terrifying it would get.
While the Crown Prince thought that, the rest got ready to head down.
"Everyone gather around." Daoist Chu said before taking out a stack of talismans. "It'll keep us protected and give us enough time to act." He stated.

The stack of talismans flew up on their own and surrounded the ground. They continue to revolved around them, forming multiple layers of barriers. Each layer seemed to be just as thick as the talisman paper, but was strong enough to endure several blows.
And with multiple layers stacked, it was even tougher.
"You added Yin Repelling Formations to it too?" Lin Mu noted.
"I did." Daoist Chu nodded. "Working on the base's array gave me enough inspiration to make a new talisman of my own." He stated.
"That's good." Crown Princess Shang said. "Looks like you'll be progress in the Dao of Formations at least." ~SHUA~
The group started to descend while being enclosed in the spherical barrier of talismans.
With how the barrier was glowing, it was like someone was lowering a lamp into the dark depths of the fissure. Things became illuminated and the true scale of the damage was finally revealed to the ground.
"Those rocks… they've been turned into sieves." Ziran noted.
"Same with the soil." Monk Hushu added.
Everyone could see thousands upon thousands of fine holes that had been created in everything. They were of varying density too, with some being as dense as having a hundred holes in just a square inch of area, while some having only a couple in the same.
This was all due to the effects of the Mountain Collapsing Fist's Earthen Devastator.
The skills power had drilled through everything, leaving holes everywhere. ~Crumble~
Qiao De found the rocks crumbling at his touch.
"This is no joke… I think this entire place might collapse at the next tremor." Qiao De spoke. "Rather than rocks and soils, this is more like a snowy cliff ready to collapse in an avalanche." He stated.
"The layer of rocks aren't all the same. Even if they do collapse, only this porous layer will fall, the rest will stay the same." Lin Mu said sensing the area. "What was supposed to have collapse has already collapsed." He added.
They were now getting a closer look at the power of Lin Mu's skill, feeling curious at the limits.
"Can you use this again, Daoist Mu Lin?" Crown Prince Feng Shun asked.
"I can yes." Lin Mu nodded his head. "Though it does take a lot of Qi to use it." He added.
This chapter is by .
"How much?" Elder Hu asked, feeling curious too. To him, a skill like this was already at the upper limit of a Sixth Tribulation Stage Immortal and perhaps what a Seventh Tribulation Stage Immortal realm expert might use. "About ten percent of my entire Qi stores." Lin Mu stated.
"T-ten percent?" Qiao De almost stumbled.
"Just ten percent?" Min Ju couldn't believe it.
"Well I can use more, but the recoil would not be worth it." Lin Mu replied. "The power of the skill depends on how much energy is used in it." He added.
"What's the maximum you can use in it?" Lady Kang inquired.
"Theoretically? All of it." Lin Mu replied, making them gasp. "But I'll probably implode as well." He added.
The group was still stunned after hearing it. For ten percent of Immortal Qi, the extent of the attack was massive. Even Crown Prince Feng Shun wouldn't be able to do something like this without using at least a third of his entire Qi stores. And if he did he would have a hard time using other skills right away too. But Lin Mu would be able to use this skill repeatedly at least a few times.
If he unleashed it five or six times in a row, Crown Prince Feng Shun was sure that Lin Mu might just create a large hole that would be big enough that if water filled it, a new sea would be formed.
"What skill is this?" Ziran asked. "Well the original skill is called as the Boulder Collapsing Fist, but I've further modified it and upgraded it." Lin Mu answered. "It can use any forms of energies, whether it be Qi or vital energies."
"Wait… so this is your original skill!?" Daoist Chu exclaimed.
"Not exactly." Lin Mu shook his head.
"What was the level of the original skill?" Lady Kang asked. "It was for the Spirit Realm." Lin Mu replied.
"There you have it." Lady Kang chuckled. "You've turned a Spirit Qi skill into an Immortal Skill. Not just that but you've also fused both body cultivation and Qi cultivation into it. This is already more than enough to call it an entirely new skill." She explained.
"Lady Kang's right." Crown Prince Feng Shun spoke. "You can very well call this your original skill and even pass it down." "If Daoist Mu Lin contributes this to the Immortal Court, I'm sure he'll get a lot of credits too. This is already a Top Grade Immortal skill." Daoist Chu stated with confidence.
"No this would be far beyond that." Lady Kang said. "For a skill that can use any form of energy and even combine them, this might just be placed as a Transcendence Skill." She estimated.
The word made the group think a lot about it, as even Lin Mu hadn't expected that the Mountain Collapsing Fist would be good enough to be classified at that level.
"Are you sure? It does have a nasty recoil with it." Lin Mu said having doubts. "Unless you have a body strong enough to endure it, you'll injure yourself. I've had my arm ripped apart more than once with it." He added.
"Even with a recoil it is still good enough to classify as that." Lady Kang nodded.
"Indeed, Skills such as these aren't without restrictions." Elder Hu nodded too. "It just means it is something meant for Dual Body and Qi cultivators. Or those with just innately strong bodies." But as he said this, Lin Mu thought of something.
"Though I think this skill might have already been claimed by someone." Lin Mu suddenly said. "The manual I got was incomplete, only having the first part of the technique. The Mountain Collapsing Fist was something I came up with after extrapolating on its initial concept." He explained.
"We can always take a look if there is Boulder Collapsing Fist in the Immortal Court." Crown Prince Feng Shun spoke.
"As far as I remember, there isn't any skill of such power and qualities in the Immortal realm." Lady Kang chimed in. "I would know if something like this would have come into anyone's possession." She added.
"Indeed." Elder Hu agreed. "Even if there was a skill like that, I doubt it could show the same prowess as yours does. This has certainly been elevated beyond its original scope." Everybody in the group was convinced that the skill was unique now, with only Lin Mu having doubts about it. But he decided to let it go for now, as a few concerning things came to his Immoral Sense's notice.
"We're getting close!" Lin Mu said, sensing the roots.
~SHUA~
Daoist Chu released several more talismans that illuminated the area better. They could now see a vast cavern that was at least twenty kilometer wide. At first the group thought that this was all due to Lin Mu's skill too, but then they saw several stone pillars that extended from the bottom to the walls and ceiling. Lin Mu also observed the walls in detail, finding them to be of a different texture.
"Looks like this place has been here since the start." Lin Mu stated. "The layer of Death Qi that was forming a barrier was just above this point." He said.
"This does seem like a natural cave." Ziran nodded. "Though it wasn't made from flowing water." He noted.
And sure enough, when they descended a bit more, their doubts were clarified.
A sea of roots could be seen below them, twisting and contorting in various ways. Some of them wrapped around the pillars, while some dug further into the ground. The network was complex and it didn't seem like any normal plant they had seen before.
The thickness of the roots also varied greatly, form as thin as a hair all the way to several hundred meters thick!
The tried to probe the roots, and found that their Immortal sense's were unable to penetrate it at all!
"Its not a normal Immortal plant." Crown Princess Shang said narrowing her eyes.
Lin Mu activated his Spatial Perception to get a better look and looked past the limits of the roots, glancing at the flow of energies against the Spatial Fabric directly.
