Walker Of The Worlds

Chapter 292 - Strange Effect

Lin Mu soon appeared in the real world after his time was up in the mysteries ring. While there he had discussed something with Senior Xukong and had also figured out a few characteristics of the space inside the ring.

The first thing that he learned was that the time he could stay in the ring after being summoned there was about fifteen minutes now. He had also taken a look around the nearby areas of the ring and found the items that he had stored lying around.

Because of the sheer size of the ring, most of the items were spread around in a rather massive expanse of an area. Another thing he found that was a bit surprising and disgusting was that there was a copious amount of blood spread around in the ring.

This blood was none other than the blood from all the beasts he had killed. Unlike the past when he used to clean and drain the blood, Lin Mu often had to keep the beasts as it is till he got the chance to clean them. This led to the blood getting accumulated there bit by bit, till it had reached a rather large amount.

Also, because the things aged slowly in the ring, the blood was still liquid and had not dried out yet. Lin Mu discovered this unfortunate fact, when he inadvertently ended up stepping on it while taking a walk.

"Ugh, I need to get rid of this all. It should make good fertilizer for the yard." Lin Mu muttered to himself.

Lin Mu looked at his body and found it to be the same as before, but when he sensed the spirit qi in his body, he found it to be extremely active. It was circulating in his meridians and emanated faint waves of spirit qi that bathed the rest of his body.

These waves of spirit qi were then released from his skin at a very slow pace. But it was this very thing that showed his status as a peak stage qi refining realm cultivator. Lin Mu clenched his fists and found his spirit qi to automatically focus on them.

His control over the spirit qi had become almost instinctual now. Lin Mu looked into his dantian and saw the abundance of Liquid spirit qi.

"Ahh, this is rather nice." Lin Mu muttered to himself.

He then did a simple routine of some moves he had learned over the months and felt the minute changes in the behaviors of his spirit qi. He practiced the thousand armament blade scripture and found the coordination to have improved greatly.

Lin Mu felt that certain things that were difficult for him and were occluding his progress were suddenly not there.

"Hmm, so the difficulty I was having in progressing was because of spirit qi itself rather than the lack of training." Lin Mu realized.

Lin Mu then controlled the short sword with his spirit sense and found his connection with it had improved by almost twice. He felt as if he could use even more spirit qi with his short sword while he was controlling it with his spirit qi.

Finally came the turn of the new skill that Lin Mu had obtained. The headache that he previously had was now gone after he relaxed by practicing some of his moves. He also felt like the new information was more clear to him now and he could use it with the same ease as that of the previous three skills.

~Huu~

Lin Mu took a deep breath and then triggered the fourth skill ’Fade’. As soon as he used it though, about ten drops of liquid spirit qi was instantly used up. And with that, Lin Mu disappeared from the courtyard.

"Huh? What is this?" Lin Mu said as he looked around.

The place was colored in grey and looked rather bare. There was nothing here, and Lin Mu could only sense faint fluctuations of spirit qi here. NôvelDrama.Org content rights.

Lin Mu walked around and could not find anything particular there. A minute passed, after which he suddenly felt his vision change again.

"Ouch! Dammit, watch where you walk kid!" A person shouted.

Lin Mu was currently standing at the corner of the road and had bumped into a man who looked like a hunter. The hunter had recoiled and fallen on the ground, while Lin Mu himself was standing unmoved. The impact had no effect on him, and he was rather confused instead.

’What happened, how am I here?’ Lin Mu thought.

"Hey! Didn’t you hear me, kid? Are you not gonna apologize?" The hunter said as he stood up from the ground.

But even now Lin Mu had not responded to the hunter and was rather engrossed in his own thoughts.

"Look at me kid, don’t you know ignoring is extremely rude?" The hunter said as put his hand on Lin Mu’s shoulder.

The way Lin Mu and the hunter had collided was at a perpendicular angle. This meant that while the hunter was looking at him, Lin Mu himself was looking in the other direction. Because of this, the hunter had to touch him to turn him.

But as soon as he did that, Lin Mu swatted his hand away in reflex, making the hunter fall back to the ground again.

"Aargh," The hunter groaned in pain.

The hunter was now a bit shocked. It was fine when he fell back before as he reckoned it happened because he was the one who lost balance. But now it was clear that he was knocked back by a light blow of Lin Mu’s hand.

He looked up to see Lin Mu staring at him. The shock that was in his mind turned to fear as it leaked into his eyes and was then shown on his face.

"Eek" The hunter flinched back as Lin Mu extended his hand towards him.

"Oh sorry, I didn’t see you, I was thinking over something." Lin Mu apologized.

"No-no problem, it’s... fine." The hunter said before running away rather fast.

"Strange..."
