Chapter 2200  Completion Of The Base

Having finished the major part of their work, Lin Mu checked on the message that had arrived.

~SHUA~

He held the Jade Slip and read what Crown Prince Feng Shun and the others that had gone on the survey had found.

Daoist Chu had also received the same information and so had the rest of the people standing guard outside.

"Huh, so the number of beasts is still high outside the hundred kilometer mark." Lin Mu noted the first important piece of information.

"There's also a lot of Baleful Energies present in the Spatial Plane along with Death Qi that is dispersed everywhere." Daoist Chu read the next important piece of information.

"Looks like they'll be returning in a few hours. We'll discuss the rest in detail once they are here." Lin Mu said before looking at the mountain. "We should get some rooms ready for all of us."

The mountain in the center was solid and didn't have any caves inside it.

As such, it would be useless for them to stay in for the time being. But once a place was carved out, they would have no issues with it.

After all, they had no idea how long they would be staying here. 'Considering the size of the Spatial Plane, we might be here for long time. As such the base needs to be appropriate for that time line too.' Lin Mu thought to himself.

"Should we carve out an internal area?" Daoist Chu asked.

"Yeah." Lin Mu nodded and flew to the base of the mountain.

Daoist Chu followed after him and watch as he drew out his sword.

~SHING~

Afternoon Pine glowed lightly before Lin Mu slashed out.

~KABOOM~

The slash pierced through the mountain's base and cut open a long streak into it.

~SHING~SHING~

Lin Mu slashed out a few more times, turning the opening into a rectangular entrance.

"There we go," Lin Mu said as sheathed the sword.

He then placed his hand on the section he had cut out, and directly stored it into the ring.

~SHUA~

"That was fast…" Daoist Chu saw the hundred meter deep entrance that had been opened up within a few seconds and even cleared out.

"This is the easy part anyways." Lin Mu said as he assessed the area inside with his immortal sense.

The tunnel he had opened up was about twenty meters wide, ten meters tall and hundred metered deep.

"Ham, I suppose one room for each of us along with a central room should be good enough." Lin Mu came up with a floor plan. "If we need more we can always add later." He said before drawing out Afternoon Pine again.

~SHING~SHING~SHING~

Tens of sword slashes flew as they cut out the necessary branches in the main tunnel. Lin Mu then went inside each branch and created a large room along with a few ventilation channels.

The latter were easy to make as all Lin Mu needed to do was do a few stabs with his Sword Intent, allowing long and thin holes to be created in the wall.

Lin Mu expanded each room to be at least a hundred square meters each. This would be more than enough space for each person to live in.

He didn't bother to make any stone furniture though, as he was sure all of them were carrying personal furniture that they might needed.

Once the personal rooms were all built, Lin Mu move into the central room. This was meant to be their all purpose room as well as a meeting room.

It was located at the center of the tunnel branches and Lin Mu only had to expand it by carving out more rock. ~SHING~SHING ~SHING~

Lin Mu spun Afternoon Pine in a circle, causing layer after layer of rock to be stripped. The sword intent infused into the sword slash continued to flow.

It ground the rock away like a grinder and a couple minutes later, a large circular room had been created.

It was about two hundred meters in diameter and about fifty meters tall. It would be more than enough for them.

"Now to clear it out." Lin Mu quickly stored the debris away, but kept a large rock chunk behind. The rock chunk was about forty meters long and five meters wide, having been cut off the roof.

"This can be a nice table for us." Lin Mu's hand moved like a blur, as the rock chunk was carved into the shape of a table.

Its legs were thick and provided it stability, while its top was flat and smooth. It almost felt like someone had carved out a durable table out of solid granite and polished it to the best level.

Though for Lin Mu, it was just a few sword slashes that had achieved the same.

"Now for the final touches," Lin Mu took out the Rune Shaping Brush once again.

He started writing down runes, that automatically flew towards the walls and merged into them. These turned into formations that would provided some quality of life while they were here.

It included things like temperature regulation formations, dust repelling formations, Qi channeling and Qi gathering arrays, and finally some security arrays that would act as doors.

In the end, all Lin Mu had to add was a few illumination formations to brighten the base up.

While he was doing this, Daoist Chu was taking care of the things on the outside. He made a gate for the entrance, as it would be a bit too casual to just leave it open. He also added the final illusory array that would hide the entrance, and make it look like this place was untouched by humans.

"There we go," Daoist Chu wiped his forehead seeing that his work was finished. "I should call them in." He said before sending a message.

~SHUA~SHUA~SHUA~

Lady Kang, Elder Hu and Ziran quickly appeared, having received the message.

"Are you done with everything?" Ziran asked seeing that the mountain and the hills looked the same as before.

"Yeah, we're done." Daoist Chu replied. "Daoist Mu Lin should be done with our accommodations too." He added.

And just as he said that, they felt someone approaching from the tunnel.

~CREAKS

The stone door opened up, as Lin Mu walked out.

"Ah, you all are right on time." Lin Mu greeted. "Come see how it is inside. If needed we can still change whatever needed." He added.

"Very well." Lady Kang replied and was the first one to step inside. She saw the brightly light tunnel that had smooth walls as well as multiple floating orbs of light that were stuck to the ceiling.

There were no designs or decorations here, but it still carried a slight appeal to it. 'His Sword Intent is still lingering here… It permeated into the walls.' Lady Kang thought to herself.

She lightly touched a wall with her finger and felt a tingle travel down her finger.

'Yeah there's certainly sword intent mixed in the walls. He used his own sword intent to carve out this place it seems like.' Lady Kang thought to herself.

While it was nothing compared to the luxurious places she had lived in, this was still fine for her. Lady Kang knew thats they were in a dangerous location and even such modest accommodation would be more than enough for them.

'They've certainly done well with the formation arrays. I don't think we'll be having any issues here.' Elder Hu thought. "Lady Kang will also be more comfortable with this." He muttered. "Each of the rooms has its own control node for the arrays while the core area has the arrays for the entire base." Lin Mu informed them. "As such you can make changes to your room as per your comfort." He added.

"What about the defenses of the base?" Lady Kang inquired.

While she had seen them set up the Dual Yang Repulsing Array, she still didn't know how it would be functioning in the current state.

"The defense are automatic for the most part, except for the self-destruction. That will have to be triggered manually and will give us two minutes to escape." Lin Mu explained. "There is also a monitoring array in the central room, thus we can observe the condition outside without going their ourselves." He added.

"Two minutes should be more than enough for us." Lady Kang nodded. "And the monitoring array will certainly be useful." She stated.

"Mmhmm, you all can take a look at your rooms. I've added markers for names, so you can just take your pick and it'll be bound to you." Lin Mu informed. "You all should get settled in before Crown Prince and the others arrive. We can get started on the new information once they are here." He suggested.

"Very well." Lady Kang said before picking the room nearest to them.

"I'll get one too." Ziran picked a room on the opposite side.
