Day after day passed as Lin Mu and Meng Bai settled into their new life in the secluded valley. The tranquility of the place, combined with their dedicated training, made time flow in a structured rhythm, bringing with it both progress and a sense of stability.
Their routine had now become well-established. Meng Bai spent the mornings practicing his new spear technique, the Nine Strikes Mountain Piercing Spear, under Lin Mu's supervision. His training stretched well into the afternoon, after which he shifted his focus to writing practice until nightfall.
Writing was something Lin Mu had insisted on, believing that a sharp mind was just as crucial as a strong body. Once his lessons were complete, he would eat the meal that Little Shrubby had prepared before focusing on absorbing the energy refined from the spirit apples Lin Mu had provided.
