Individual legacies weren’t the last form of legacy either though as there were also some clans that would have founders who followed the primordial path in the past.

These clans were very influential and would often control many worlds under them. And since they had a very homogenized group of members due to being one family, they could concentrate their power.

This was unlike the sects which could have several factions and schools of thought forming within itself. This diffusion of power could often divide the sects and thus restrain their overall power.

This led to the legacy clans becoming great overlords of several worlds at once.

The veiled woman was sure that Lin Mu might belong to either of these two categories as his talent and affinities were very rare. But the answer that Lin Mu gave her was not something she had expected at all.

“I am not part of any of that. I am the founder of my own legacy.” Lin Mu answered, making the veiled woman gaze at him deeply.

‘He really isn’t lying… This young man has actually done it on his own…’ The veiled woman was certainly surprised. “Good… You deserve to have your name known.” She said finally.

“You want to know my name?” Lin Mu asked.

“Yes, you have obtained the honor to be known to me.” The veiled woman said proudly.

‘Isn’t she… a little too prideful?’ Lin Mu couldn’t help but think.

“She does have the right to be prideful. I’ll just tell you this Lin Mu, she is not from this world. She is from an even higher world… She is a Celestial.” Xukong informed.

“A celestial…” Lin Mu had heard the term several times before.

And while he didn’t know what it exactly entailed, he did know that it was what one could become after transcending the Immortal realm. But this also posed him some other questions.

“How would she come to the Rust Sky world then? Wouldn’t the world not allow her that?” Lin Mu asked in doubt.

“She has sealed her cultivation base. But even her sealed cultivation base is easily at the peak of the immortal realm. It wouldn’t be hard for her to flip the world on itself if she wanted to. She is easily the strongest person on this world now.” Xukong replied.

“Even stronger than the indigo woman I met in the void?” Lin Mu asked.

“Easily.” Xukong confirmed.

Lin Mu couldn’t help but take a breath after learning this. He looked at her, with a slight change on his face. Having learned of the woman’s power made him a bit nervous after all.

“I am Lin Mu.” He said truthfully.

“Lin Mu… A Forest Of Desire… I shall remember that.” The veiled woman muttered.

Lin Mu raised a brow as that was the first time someone had accurately grasped the meaning of his name.

“And may I ask who are you… Senior Celestial?” Lin Mu questioned.  “Someone of your station being in the Rust Sky world is highly unusual.” He added revealing that he knew who she was as well.

“Oh? You can sense that much? Ahahah, good, good. That’s even better.” The veiled woman chuckled.

Lin Mu had thought that she might feel a bit offended, but she seemed to not care at all.

“You are still far too low to know my name, but you can call me Saintess.” The veiled woman spoke.

‘She still doesn’t tell her name?’ Lin Mu couldn’t understand.

“Don’t take it the wrong way Lin Mu. Her name might indeed be too much for you to bear. If she is warning you it means her name might hold karma. And her being called a Saintess also means her status isn’t low at all.” Xukong explained to Lin Mu, lest he got the wrong idea.

“What does being a Saintess mean?” Lin Mu asked.

“You can think of it as someone who is even beyond the Sect master of a sect. And since she’s said that she is from a a legacy sect too, her status as Saintess means she is the direct inheritor of the legacy.” Xukong replied in detail.

~gasp~

Lin Mu almost gasped visible. Being at the top of a cultivation sect while in a higher ranked world and also being a celestial; each was something that brought forth huge implications.

And when all three were combined into one identity, it truly became massive.

Realistically there should have been no way for Lin Mu to meet someone like her in the Rust Sky world at all. It only made Lin Mu wonder just how varied his fortune was being these days.

“Don’t worry. I have a great hunch that one day you will become worthy to know my name.” The Saintess spoke.

“I’ll look forward to it. Also thank you for giving me guidance on the Dao.” Lin Mu had truly learned from her.

After all, there aren’t many opportunities to observe Dao Insights like this. Even if they were of the Air Dao that Lin Mu did not practice, it was still a very useful experience.

“Mmm… Respectful and humble. You’re already better than 90% of the disciples of Legacy sects.” The Saintess muttered. “Tell me, do you have a master?” She asked making Lin Mu take a cold breath.

“If you don’t… I can recommend you one. While you can’t come to my sect because of worldly restrictions, I can still recommend you someone from an immortal world.” The veiled woman offered.

Lin Mu was not expecting an offer like this.

“Though if you don’t prefer to be in a sect, I can also recommend you to the Immortal Court. As long as you reach the fourth Tribulation stage of the Immortal realm, you will be qualified to enter the Immortal Court’s Cultivation Pavilion.” The Saintess added.

Hearing all this, Lin Mu didn’t even know what to say. It was simply too much for him to process at once.

But then a minute later, Lin Mu shook his head.

“I’m grateful, but I do not wish for that. I already have a master.”
