Chapter 2041 To The Rendezvous Point
Lin Mu had no inkling of what went on in the mind of Mei Nienzhen. Though if he did, he would have no idea what to make of it.
~yawn~
Thankfully, it didn't seem like Mei Nienzhen intended to speak about it, as after she finished eating, she went directly down to her room. "Guess she's sleepy," Crown Prince Feng Shun said, seeing her yawn.
"One can actually sleep after eating all that food? The sheer amount of energy in it will keep me awake for a week at least." Daoist Chu said, feeling the Immortal Qi pouring into his Dantian and the Vitality coursing through his blood.
Even if he wasn't a body cultivator, it didn't mean that the food wouldn't help improve his body. It was basically the same as an elixir that could strengthen one's body and even temper the meridians to some extent.
Only Lin Mu and Little Shrubby who ate food like this regularly would find there to be few to no extra benefits like that. "I shall retire to take benefit of all this blessed food, Amithabha." Monk Hushu said standing up as well.
"Ah yeah, we should take advantage of it while we have the time." Daoist Chu agreed and decided to assimilate all the energy too.
"It's decided then." Crown Prince Feng Shun spoke. "You can rest too Daoist Mu Lin. I'll inform everyone when we are at the rendezvous point." He stated.
"Very well." Lin Mu replied, hoping to cultivate and train his skills too.
The group soon split up, with most of them heading downstairs to rest. Only the Crown Prince was now left on the observation deck, with even Crown Princess Shang decided to cultivate and assimilate all the immortal Qi from the food.
Downstairs, Lin Mu and Little Shrubby quickly picked an empty room before settling in.
"You go on first, Little Shrubby." Lin Mu said, sending him to the Sleepscape.
Next he sat down on the bed, and assimilated all the Immortal Qi and Immortal essence from the food he had consumed. He had eaten a lot and thus his stomach was very active, trying to absorb all the energy without leaking even the slightest bit.
'The faint feeling of hunger is reducing even more.' Lin Mu thought to himself.
This was the reason why he had eaten so much today too, even though he had done the same just a couple days earlier in the feast with the Ever Spring Mistress. Lin Mu could sense that his hunger was returning and he'd have to regularly eat to keep it suppressed.
He certainly didn't want a repeat of what happened in the Evergreen Pillars forest again. Especially not with others being around him.
Lin Mu had a hunch that if the hunger got out of control, he would probably not care what was in front of him.
~huu~
'I do have the extra pre-cooked food kept in the storage too. If need be, I can always eat that.' Lin Mu thought to himself.
Little Shrubby had cooked and prepared a decent enough stock for Lin Mu to eat in emergencies. Though Lin Mu reckoned that it might be better to ask him to cook more later. For the time being though, Lin Mu focused on assimilating all the energy from the food.
And once he was done, Lin Mu entered the Sleepscape.
~shua~
Appearing in the Sleepscape Lin Mu wasted no time in getting to work. He took out a jade slip and started to revise the formation arrays that he had seen in the ship earlier. He added the new information to the jade slip while modifying what needed to be changed.
He also went over it again, analyzing it in depth to find other methods of using it. Lin Mu wanted to thoroughly understand this new information and make it his own.
Most of the people in the ship were now engrossed in cultivating with the exception of the Crown Prince and Crown Princess. The two were talking on the observation deck, while the ship soared through the sky.
They couldn't relax and cultivate like the others as they needed to be awake for anything that might happen. Not to mention, the Crown Prince was also the one controlling the ship. Crown Princess Shang was there to take over in case the Crown Prince needed to attend to other matters.
If others were to see how the two royals were working, they would be stunned. It was quite unusual for nobles like them to work while others rested, as usually it would be the other way around. With how expertly they handled it all, it was clear that this was not their first time. The two had shared this responsibility many times before when they had traveled to various worlds as part of their training in the Immortal court.
And due to being used to this, time didn't bother them. Minutes turned into hours and hours turned into days. The clouds under the ship had cleared out at one point and replacing it was a vast blue ocean. Of course, the ship was still in the sky many kilometers from the ocean surface, but it was slowly descending towards it.
"Hmm…" The Crown Prince narrowed his eyes as he looked at the ocean below.
"We should almost be at the rendezvous point." Crown Princess Shang said, checking the message from Qiao De.
"Yeah, I can see it now." Crown Prince Feng Shun replied, having spotted a black dot in the distance. "You should go and inform the others, I'll control the ship." He spoke.
"Alright." Crown Princess Shang nodded before heading downstairs.
~Whoosh~ Crown Prince Feng Shun controlled the descent of the ship and let it fly in a downward arc. A few minutes later, the ship landed on the ocean surface for the first time and parked itself on the shore of a small island that was barely two thousand meters in size.
"Now then, where are they?" The Crown Prince spread his immortal sense.
