Chapter 2574 A Soul Inheritance Treasure And Excuse
The refinement applications that Lin Mu had specified were all methods typically understood only by Celestials. It was the kind of
knowledge that came with time and experience in the Celestial Realm.
One would need to grasp the nature of Celestial Qi and comprehend the Dao at a higher level before being able to touch upon
such applications.
Of course, there was always a way for someone to teach these methods to an individual in the Immortal Realm, but it would be
akin to preaching sutras to a donkey. Just because they could hear the teachings didn't mean they would truly understand them.
It required tremendous effort and innate comprehension to grasp these principles fully.
The way Lin Mu spoke about these techniques wasn't like someone merely parroting what they'd heard. The Saintess could tell
he understood these methods deeply.
The Saintess was well-versed enough in refinement methods to recognize Lin Mu's expertise. His confidence and tone of voice
reflected someone with tens of thousands of years of experience, not someone learning secondhand.
"Where did you learn all this from?" the Saintess questioned, her curiosity piqued.
"The Withered Spirit Daoist, or rather Yao Changying, had many treasures on her person," Lin Mu replied. "It turns out the
Withered Spirit Daoist was originally from an Alchemist sect and was a refiner herself. I managed to learn this from the treasures
she kept on her." He provided a plausible explanation.
"Even if she had treasures like that, there's no way to learn so quickly. Even... for you," the Saintess said, clearly shocked.
"Well, the treasure was unique," Lin Mu explained. "It seems the Withered Spirit Daoist injected all her understanding of alchemy

and refinement into it. She probably intended to pass it on to Yao Changying once the two of them had truly merged."
Hearing that, the Saintess furrowed her brows, deep in thought, before a possibility came to her mind.
"Could it be... a Soul Inheritance Treasure?" the Saintess muttered.
Lin Mu's heart skipped a beat. He realized his excuse had worked. There was no way he could safely reveal the truth about how
he'd gained such profound knowledge. Even though the Saintess wouldn't harm him, she could inadvertently become a target
because of him.

With his newfound understanding of Celestial powers and divination techniques, Lin Mu knew it was best to keep the number of
people who knew of his ability to absorb memories from souls to a minimum.
If the Celestial Court or other powerful entities discovered his secret through divination, they might target the Saintess to get to
him. Lin Mu couldn't allow her to face danger because of his actions. This excuse served both their interests.
What's more, Lin Mu did know about the Soul Inheritance Treasure the Saintess mentioned. It was something only a Celestial
could create, involving the use of their True Will to impart their experiences and comprehension to future generations.
Creating such a treasure was a rare act, typically done at the brink of death. Great masters or sect elders often chose this
method to ensure their knowledge was preserved for future disciples. The process required great care and selectiveness, as it
was impossible to imbue all of one's experiences and understanding into the treasure without causing it to collapse.
Given this, it made sense that the Withered Spirit Daoist would prepare such a treasure. As she planned to divide her soul, she
would inevitably lose parts of her knowledge. Preserving the most valuable portions of her alchemical expertise was a logical
choice.
"Was your long sleep due to that too?" the Saintess guessed.
"Yes. I didn't expect it to take so long to assimilate the knowledge," Lin Mu said with a faint smile.

"It's surprising you only slept for six months," the Saintess replied. "Usually, it would take several years to fully grasp and
assimilate such complex information. The fact that you managed it in six months is nothing short of miraculous." She couldn't
help but praise him.
Of course, she had no idea that what Lin Mu had assimilated wasn't just the Withered Spirit Daoist's alchemical and refinement
knowledge but an entire two million years' worth of memories and understanding.
If she knew the truth, it was hard to predict how she would react. Perhaps it was better this way, as the reality of assimilating two
million years of memories in six months seemed utterly insane.
For now, Lin Mu's carefully crafted explanation seemed to satisfy the Saintess. She even felt he was fortunate to obtain such a
treasure.
"Since you now have this understanding of refinement, you can proceed as you wish," the Saintess said. "The methods you
described are indeed authentic and should work well. However, whether you can fully apply them remains to be seen. Practical

experience with these applications is essential." She cautioned Lin Mu against expecting immediate success.
"It's fine," Lin Mu replied with calm confidence. "I have enough resources to try it a couple of times. If I fail, I can always use the
last portion of the Tyrant Bull Marrow directly as it was intended to be used."
"Very well, you can proceed," the Saintess agreed. "Though, do you wish to do this alone?" She suspected Lin Mu might prefer
solitude for this task.
Lin Mu pondered her question for a moment before responding. "Yes. I'd like to try it myself first. If I need help, I'll call for you."
He didn't want to impose or risk involving her in case something went awry.
The Saintess nodded, understanding his reasoning. "As you wish. Just be cautious. Refinement at this level is not forgiving of
mistakes."
Lin Mu gave her a grateful smile. "I'll be careful."
As he prepared to leave, the Saintess watched him with a mix of curiosity and admiration. Lin Mu's rapid growth and ability to
navigate challenges that would daunt even seasoned Celestials had left an indelible impression on her. While she couldn't see
the full extent of his abilities, she knew he was someone extraordinary.
