Walker Of The Worlds

As Lin Mu saw the Spatial Planes, he wondered just how much time passed since Feng Baxing’s fight.

‘My own fight ended in about twenty minutes so he should have ended in less time than that… Considering his opponent it might just be five minutes or even less.’ Lin Mu thought.

~SHUA~

But as Lin Mu thought about it, his time in the Spatial Channel came to an end and he was about to exit it. Then with a flash of light, he reappeared back in the Rust Sky world, standing upon the platform.

“WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!~”

“MU LIN!”

“MU LIN!”

Lin Mu was met with cacophonous cheers as the people standing around the platform shouted at the top of their lungs.

He was almost forced to seal his ears, and was taken aback. While there had been a positive reaction from the audience in the previous fights when he had won too, this was completely unlike what he had faced before.

The sound was simply too loud considering the fact that it was all immortals shouting too. 

The sheer waves of immortal Qi spreading from them combined and could possibly hurt people if not for the fact that they hadn’t been mobilized in an offensive way. Then there was also the fact that there were formations protecting the platform too.

“Daoist Mu Lin has won the battle against Daoist Tian Ning!” The official announcement was finally heard as the formation screen above them changed.

It showed the face of Lin Mu along with his name as well as the title of winner. With it, Lin Mu had officially entered the top 32 contestants!

Perhaps it was due to him winning against Tian Ning who was considered a really strong contestant that the effect on the audience was really great. Lin Mu hadn’t expected something like this either and could only deal with it for now.

“Daoist Mu Lin, you can head to the rewards pavilion if you wish.” The elder overseeing the battle spoke.

Thankfully the people in the audience knew better than to bother him after that, thus they didn’t go after him. They simply stayed as there were still two fights that were ongoing. Of course, the other two fights weren’t as exciting for them.

The two main fights that they were looking forward to in this cycle had already ended. 

The Third Prince’s win was expected, but Lin Mu defeating Tian Ning in a domineering manner had seemingly overwhelmed everyone with excitement.

After all, rather than a fight that ended in just a couple of moves, the ‘all-out’ fight of Lin Mu and Tian Ning seemed more exciting to the audience.

“That was certainly a lot…” Lin Mu muttered as he made his way to the rewards pavilion that was nearby.

~shua~

As soon as he entered the perimeter of the pavilion his form disappeared, having been hidden by the illusory formation.

Lin Mu quickly went to the rewards section and placed his hand on the observation orb.

~shua~

The orb quickly checked his data and handed him the rewards in the form of a pouch.

“Let’s see what they got this time…” Lin Mu let his Immortal sense enter the temporary spatial storage pouch.

The rewards were three times higher than the previous stage and understandably so. After all the fights would be a lot more fierce and against stronger opponents.

‘Fifteen hundred High Grade immortal stones, more healing pills, some high grade Immortal Qi replenishing pills as well as… whats this?’ Lin Mu checked the items before finding something that he didn’t recognize.

Lin Mu took the unknown object out, finding it to be a strange green chunk of metal.

“Some kind of ore?” Lin Mu couldn’t identify it right away.

The ore was green in color somewhat similar to how rusted copper would look. But at the same time it was a lot lighter than copper. Lin Mu tried pressing it lightly and found it to actually compress.

“Strange,” Lin Mu pulled on the ore and discovered that it could even stretch a bit.

Over all the ore seemed to have good flexibility to it.

Next, Lin Mu used his immortal sense to probe it and checked the insides. He could feel some metal Qi in it which was normal for most ores but he also found some traces of Metal Dao Traces in it.

“Oh? This is new.” Lin Mu was surprised.

Not many metals had Metal Dao Traces within them after all. And those that did were highly valuable.

“Mmm… That’s Faux Vine Metal Ore.” Xukong’s voice was heard after a long time.

“Ah Senior!” Lin Mu hadn’t talked to Xukong for a while now. 

The great being was also deep in cultivation thus Lin Mu had avoided disturbing him. He could tell that Xukong was nearing some critical point and it was best not to bother him.

Thus Lin Mu would only contact him when it was absolutely needed. 

And since Xukong hadn’t spoken either, it just meant that he didn’t find anything that was concerning. After all, the spider would know if there was any problem.

“Looks like you found a good reward. It’ll be useful for your bow.” Xukong replied.

“Good for Wonder Seeker?” Lin Mu raised his brows.

“Yes. The Faux Vine Metal ore is rather flexible and light. It is best used in bows. Once it is refined, it can be turned into highly flexible wires which can then be woven into strong bow strings.” Xukong explained.

“I see… Looks like I have something to help Wonder Seeker Grow then.” Lin Mu was pleased.

Xukong went silent for a bit as he scanned through the shared memories, before learning all that Lin Mu had done.

“You also won… that’s good.” Xukong praised. “Oh? And what’s this? You actually fought someone who could use Thunderclap Titan Form?” he sounded surprised this time.

“Yeah, Tian Ning.” Lin Mu replied wondering why Xukong was reacting like that.
