"They should know this too. There is no way they don't know about each other being there, so why aren't they going towards the Violet Mystic Life Tree?" Lin Mu questioned after seeing the cultivators just waiting around.

It was certainly suspicious and made Lin Mu wonder what he had missed.

'Are they waiting for backup, or is there something dangerous there?' Lin Mu decided to eavesdrop on one of the groups.

Using Phase he sank into the ground and approached one of the groups that seemed suitable for him. They were waiting in one of the ruined buildings that had half of its roof broken. 

There were two cultivators standing on the roof and keeping watch, while five were sitting inside. They had set up a few formations around their camp, but they weren't that hard for Lin Mu to bypass.
