Walker Of The Worlds

Chapter 1084 Leaving The Lesser Void

Gaining the World Essence Crystal was sufficient for Lin Mu and he felt like he needed to return to the Xiaofan world. He didn’t know what would have happened in the time that had passed.

It had already been over two weeks since he had left it, after all.

’Those disciples should be fine though… I think.’ Lin Mu thought to himself as he flew back up from the hole in the roof that he had come through. 

His little search in the cave had told him that the entire place had no walls at all. Also it wasn’t that wide either, being about two hundred meters in radius. That’s right… the entire place was actually a sphere and floated within the cave.

If Lin Mu went down, he would hit the ceiling and if he continued on from there, he might come out from the jagged part of the world fragment rather than the icy caps.

It didn’t take him that long to exit the abyss either, as he was only slow before because he was searching for things. But now that he was done, he could fly back at his maximum speed. 

Soon he had left the abyss and was in the icy glacier again.

”Sure enough, the strange energy has nearly dissipated now.” Lin Mu said after sensing the faintness of the World Essence Crystal’s energy.

”You should remember that energy signature and brand it in your mind. Because… if you sense it anywhere else, you should run away at the earliest. It would most likely mean danger.” Xukong stated.

”I shall senior.” Lin Mu replied, knowing exactly what Xukong was implying.

The only way he would ever feel the energy signature like this again was if he went to a destroyed world, or… if there was someone else with it. The first option might have dangers, but it was still fine. But the second option meant that Lin Mu was on a normal world and there was someone with a world essence crystal.

A world essence crystal that they could use in a myriad of ways that could easily kill him.

And Lin Mu certainly didn’t want that. No matter how tempting a world essence crystal might be, it would only be so in his own hands. In others’ hands, it would only be a potential weapon.

Putting away these thoughts for now, Lin Mu flew straight up from the glacier and directly exited the world fragment. 

”Can I leave the Xiaofan world like this too?” Lin Mu asked.

”An Immortal Ascension realm cultivator might have been able to if there was no barrier. But with that barrier there, no one can.” Xukong replied.

”Hmm… though since I’ll most probably ascend, it shouldn’t be needed.” Lin Mu muttered.

An immortal Ascension realm cultivator might be able to leave their world, but doing that was far more dangerous than just waiting to ascend. There was no lack of such cultivators who had died from it.

There were countless dangers awaiting one once they left the embrace of their home world. 

One of the most basic problems one would face is the lack of air and spirit Qi.

Even if an immortal ascension realm cultivator might hold their breath for a long time, perhaps even over a year and more, with the help of specialized spirit tools, they will still run out of spirit Qi after a certain point.

One must know that the worlds weren’t exactly close to each other. While one might be able to spot one closely, it would still be such a distance away that reaching it would take years.

Then there was the fact that even if an Immortal Ascension realm cultivator left their home world… or planet, they would still be in the same realm of existence. The true goal behind ascension was to reach the Immortal realm within many immortal worlds existed.

It was only these worlds that would allow the existence of an immortal realm expert after all.

Lin Mu continued to get farther and farther from the World Fragment and could feel the hold of gravity on his body disappearing. After about an hour, it was completely gone and he was left to the expanse of the Lesser void.

Feeling the slightly familiar flow of the void, Lin Mu felt strangely calm.

Aiming toward the sacred land of the Ripple Mist sect, Lin Mu closed his eyes and shot forward!

He continued to sense and comprehend the spatial element and based in the void. Time passed without a notice and Lin Mu entered a state of deep comprehension.

Lin Mu didn’t even realize when he had already reached the border of the Sacred Land.

”Huh?” Bumping into the barrier woke him up and made him aware that he had covered the long journey.

”That was fast…” Lin Mu muttered, not knowing it if was true or not.

For now, he just decided to leave it. He opened another rift into the barrier of the sacred land as he couldn’t find the old one.

”It closed just like I had expected.” Lin Mu said as he passed through the rift.

~HUU~

Breathing in fresh air, Lin Mu felt a bit surreal. 

It was his first time leaving the Xiaofan world, thus it would be a memory he would never forget.

”Time to return.” Lin Mu said as he directly opened up a portal.

With him being in the sacred land itself, Lin Mu could return to the Xiaofan world from any point, as he could simply utilize its formation array to reject him and send him to the teleportation gate directly.

~SHUA~

And sure enough, once the portal was opened, the sacred lands’ formation array directly expelled him out to the gate.

~thud~

Lin Mu’s body landed on the ground and made a little impact, but didn’t break it entirely since the  gate’s floor was made out of a tougher material than normal rock.

”I’m back Xiaofan world…” Lin Mu lightly said and spread his spirit sense across the sect, wanting to know what had happened.
