Walker Of The Worlds

Lin Mu had no idea of the threat that was approaching him at break neck speeds.

~SHUA~

The pressures on him continued to increase and he acclimatized to it as if it as normal. That wasn’t all either as after a certain point, all his defensive techniques activated at the same time.

~KACHA~

The Armor of the mortal Strengthening Scripture was once Lin Mu’s main defensive technique, but at this point it was the same as glass. While he might be able to bear attacks from a Dao Treading realm cultivator on it, it would not bear an attack from an immortal.

He would need to rely on the Golden body of his to do that.

‘Why’s it appearing now? I didn’t activate it?’ Lin Mu wondered.

~CRACK~CRACK~

Cracks appeared on the armor due to the increased gravity as it started to shatter. Lin Mu had not activated it for this very reason.

~SHATTER~

A few seconds later it finally broke apart, unable to bear the pressure.

~sigh~

“It was what started me on this journey and now its too weak to last…” Lin Mu lightly sighed.

~HONG~

But in a few moments later a change happened.

“Immortal Qi vortex, its finally forming.” Elder Niji and Lanbao watched from the distance.

The immoral qi formed a translucent mist above Lin Mu and spun like a cyclone gathering more and more.

“Let me help him a bit.” Lanbao said before closing her eyes. “Land of Haima, Bless the human for he has saved your people…” she muttered lightly.

The Deep Sapphire Island responded to her plea as motes of blue light rose into the sky. The sapphire coral trees opened up their buds, releasing an enthralling essence.

Water Immortal qi also appeared from the top of the array, mixing with the Immortal qi vortex increasing its size.

Even if Lin Mu didn’t have an affinity to the water element, he could still absorb and used it as it is during an immortal qi infusion.

~DENG~

As if a gong had been rung, the air shook. The sound had come from Lin Mu, pulling Elder Niji and Lanbao’s attention.

“The Tribulation isn’t stopping?” Elder Niji gazed at the scene finding it unusual. “Shouldn’t it stop at this point? Unless…” he then realized.

“He isn’t having a normal immortal Tribulation, he is having a variant Tribulation!” Lanbao spoke up, nervousness appearing on her face.

Elder Niji had gone through the Three Phase Water Tribulation and knew just how dangerous it could be. While he had survived it with great ease, he also knew that it was mostly due to the fact that he had the support of his bloodline.

And as far as Elder Niji knew, Lin Mu didn’t have a bloodline that could help him the same way. Even if Lin Mu did have great defenses there was no saying what might end up happening with a variant immortal Tribulation.

“Do you know what kind of Variant Tribulation Noble Lin Mu is having?” Elder Niji questioned Lanbao.

Having read many books, he reckoned she was the most knowledgeable about this.

“It’s hard to tell… so far it looks to be the same as the basic form of the Earth Immortal Tribulation. But then it seems to be still running. It might be a Crushing Earth Immortal Tribulation or Meteoric Earth Immortal Tribulation.” Lanbao answered after thinking.

“What are those two?” Elder Niji had no idea and he could barely glance a bit from the name.

Even in his bloodline memories there was nothing about it, which meant that it was far from the needs of his bloodline.

“Both of them are rather deadly forms of the Earth Immortal Tribulation, even more so than the Three Phase Water immortal Tribulation that you overcame Elder Niji.

It is so dangerous that, in our records there are said to be just five people who them. Four managed to survive the Crushing Earth Immortal Tribulation and only one that managed to survive the Meteoric Earth Immortal Tribulation.

The Crushing Earth Immortal Tribulation is similar to the basic earth immortal tribulation but in it, the earth will try to swallow up the cultivate and crush them within its bowels.

As for the Meteoric Earth Immortal Tribulation there is only one record of someone surviving it. It is said that this person had the bloodline of an Earth Drake and relied on it to survive it.  Then there was also the fact that he took it as his last Immortal Tribulation before turning into a Seventh Tribulation Stage Immortal.

The worse part about it is that it cannot be defended against, especially in the Rust Sky world that has a dense layer of Asteroids covering its atmosphere.

The Meteoric Earth Immortal Tribulation will attract these asteroids, turning them into meteors that would try to smash the cultivator.” Lanbao explained in detail.

“This… If its the Crushing Earth Immortal Tribulation, Noble Lin Mu will manage but if it is the Meteoric Earth Immortal Tribulation, I doubt we’ll be able to do much…” Elder Niji said before looking up.

“But will the meteors even reach down here?” Elder Niji asked in doubt.

“They will… The attracting force acting on them will bring them to Lin Mu no matter where he is. In fact, the force will only keep on getting stronger until they finally strike the cultivator.” Lanbao replied.

“Doesn’t this mean, the more distance there is between the cultivator and the sky the greater the force of the meteors will be?” Elder Niji almost broke out in a sweat.

“Yes… it’s indeed greater. If Noble Lin Mu did this on the surface he might have been able to bear it too, but if he’s this far deep… I don’t know…” Lanbao said her fists clenching.

Elder Niji saw her reaction and knew that she might be thinking the same as him.

“Don’t act, if we interfere the Immortal Tribulation will only get further agitated. We might end up getting targeted too.” Elder Niji stated.

“I know… I just hope Lin Mu can make it…” Lanbao said with a sad expression.
