Chapter 2376 What's In An Alias?
A Billion credit was once an unbelievable amount to Lin Mu and the others. But as they persevered in the Spatial Plane, they realized that the credits were something they were bound to get. Having lived and survived here for several years now, they had gotten used to the situations as well as the dangers.
The Chimeric Beasts were the same as normal beasts to them, while the Black Fin Island Members were additional enemies they needed to take care of.
The only truly problematic things were the Chimera Plants and the Yin Nascent Soul Maggots from what they had experienced so far.
In all these years, they had destroyed about six Chimera Plants and over thirty Yin Nascent Soul Maggots that had matured. This had granted them immense amount of Credits, some part of which they had to use right away too as they had sustained injuries several times in these years.
Whether they be from the Chimeric Beasts, the Yin Nascent Soul Maggots or the Black Fin Island members themselves, there were times when they had been outwitted and gotten injured. Thankfully, they had managed to resolve most of those injuries with the rewards available in the Offering Halls.
This became easier, the more Offering Halls the group found. In all, they had found eleven Offering Halls in the Spatial Plan, though they were sure there were more of them since there were still some parts they hadn't been able to explore.
But so far, they could proudly say that they had explored at least eighty percent of the Bridge Plane.
They did intend to explore the remaining twenty percent area of the Bridge Plane too, but in this process Lin Mu finally ended up hitting the one billion credit requirement!
"Daoist Mu Lin you've done it!
" Qiao De exclaimed seeing the number.
"Shouldn't it be Daoist Lin Mu now?
" Daoist Chu corrected the man.
"Ah yeah, force of habit.
" Qiao De chuckled.
"I still can't get over the fact that you chose your name flipped as an alias.
" Crown Princess Shang chuckled as well.
"It wasn't that bad. At least it was a lot more convincing.
" Crown Prince Feng Shun said in a teasing tone.
"Ha… yeah.
" Lin Mu smiled wryly knowing that it would be hard to forget that.
The truth about Lin Mu's real name had come out accidentally during this time and the one to discover it had been Daoist Chu. It had happened when Daoist Chu and Lin Mu were working on an array and were having a hard time with it.
Lin Mu happened to take out one of his previously made formations for reference and missed the fact that his 'signature' was actually present in it. Daoist Chu was referring to the formation when he happened to see the signature.
This was a common thing for a lot of Formation masters to add, and the same was the case for Lin Mu. In a way, the signature also functioned as a security function for the array, thus adding it was important.
Daoist Chu was confused upon seeing this and wondered if this was actually a formation made by someone else. But when he compared the Qi signature on it against Lin Mu's he was sure that it matched.
He asked Lin Mu and at that point the man knew he couldn't hide the truth any longer.
It had been a long time since Lin Mu had wondered what the others would think if they found out he had been using an alias all this time. The problem was that it had gone on for so long and Lin Mu had even won the tournament of the Four Guardian beasts with it, thus it became awkward to bring up the topic.
Though much to his surprise the group didn't really mind it as much as he had thought. In fact, they were surprised that Lin Mu was using Mu Lin as his alias as it was rather simple.
It was then that he found out; it wasn't just him who used an alias. Pretty much everyone in the group had used an alias before or even used one right now.
For example, Qiao De's own real name was something else and the one he was using was something he had taken when he had joined the Black Candle Pavilion.
Crown Prince Feng Shun, Daoist Chu, Crown Princess Shang and even Monk Hushu had used aliases when they had gone out on their missions with the Immortal Court. In several missions they couldn't reveal their identity thus they would go out with an alternate alias.
In fact they had been using them for so long that in some parts and worlds of the Immortal Realm, they were pretty much known by those names instead of their real names.
But that wasn't all, as Lin Mu learned that they didn't just have one or two aliases, but multiple. And the one that had the highest number of Aliases among the group was none other than Ziran!
The half elf had over ten aliases!
In his travels across the Immortal Realm he had taken on several names and was well known by them too. Crown Prince Feng Shun and Lady Kang were actually surprised as they recognized some of the titles the man had gone by.
They had heard of them before and knew of it as a well known person, but never knew that it was the half elf that had been accompanying them all this time.
Even Qiao De who had invited Ziran, had no idea the man had so many aliases.
From the Wandered Elf, to the Deep Explorer Half Elf, to Demon Sower and Demoness Subjugator, Ziran had quite a few aliases.
Though he did emphasize not to use the last one at all costs, or his wife would not let him have peace for a long time.
Pitying the man, they swore not to use it. Though a certain merchant did extract a few favors in exchange for that.
