Walker Of The Worlds-Novel

Lin Mu looked around the parallel world finding it to be the same as it was before. There were no changes to it other than the fact that the topography was a bit different.

But that was normal as it changed even in the Xiaofan lord and as long as one moved it would continue to change. Even Xukong had been unable to tell just what this place was but Lin Mu didn't mind it as long as he could make use of it.

~Phew~

"This really is the safest place for me…" Lin Mu leaned against a white and great rock.

While the process had been quick for him, there was no doubt that it was quite nerve wracking. After all, he was stealing from a Fourth Tribulation Stage Immortal while many more were present around.

Forget them, if he was detected they could very well claim theft and the city's security would also act. This could even mean that he would catch the attention of the Sixth Tribulation Stage immortal that kept watch over the port.

That expert was still in the air and didn't seem to leave that place, whether it be day or night.

One might think that it was excessive, but for a sixth Tribulation Stage Immortal, going without sleep for a year or two was nothing. They would easily spend a couple hundred years in seclusion, thus this kind of work was normal to them.

Lin Mu calmed his nerves for a few seconds before starting to move in the opposite direction from where they had come. He wanted to be as far as possible when reappearing, and if it was possible it would be better to be on the outskirts of the city too.

After all, he'll be causing some spatial disturbances when reappearing and there was always a chance that the others might detect him.

Thankfully with his speed, it didn't take him long to cross tens of kilometers in the brief time he had in Fade.

While his skill was very powerful, it also came with its limits. Even in the Immortal world, its time limit was still 30 seconds and Lin Mu would be returned to the real world after that time.

Though he could very well reactivate the skill and return to the Parallel world again.

~SHUA~

Finally the time limit for Fade was reached and Lin Mu returned to the real world. As soon as he returned though, he used Blink several times in a row to get to a more secluded place.

Even if he had appeared in what looked like a back alley, it was best to not stay in an area where there would be traces of spatial disturbance left behind. At least this way it would make it harder for others to sense him.

His Immortal sense was still fully extended though and he didn't dare to lose focus even for a minute. He didn't know when he would be targeted and it was best to be as cautious as possible.

"Let's take a look at the Spiral Flake Crystal then…" Lin Mu peered into the ring.

​ He didn't want to take it out directly since there was a chance that the others would detect its reappearance. Lin Mu didn't think that the powers of this world wouldn't have a way to track the stole Spiral Flake Crystals.

Right now it was in his ring, and had been moved without reappearing in the Rust Sky world. Thus it wouldn't leave an traces of disappearance. But if he withdrew it right now, there was a high chance for others to end up sensing it.

Even if it was not now, it could still be sensed by the tracking skills later.

But as along as it was in the ring, there was no one who would be able to check it. Xukong was the only one who had been able to see through the ring so far, and even that was only for a few aspects.

The Void Weaver Spider was still unable to discover the origin of the ring, only estimating that it was an ancient artifact that had possibly come into being from an era long past.

Though looking at the Spiral Flake Crystal made Lin Mu find it a bit strange.

The Crystal itself was irregularly shaped, but it had a pattern embedded inside it. The pattern was that of a snow flake that had spiraling rings joining its many branches.

It emitted a coldness that could directly pierce through space and even Lin Mu's physique couldn't exactly block it.

'I'll take a good time to study it once I'm away from here… can't take it out in the city.' Lin Mu thought to himself.

"You can also analyze it in the Sleepscape, don't forget." Xukong reminded. "You are going to help Little Shrubby there anyways."

"Ah, of course!" Lin Mu nodded his head.ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ novelenglish.net . (f)ire.ɴet

All the things he had done so far had made him miss the most obvious and secretive option that he had with him the entire time.

'I'll do that when I return. Though I wonder if the Saintess will mind it or not…' Lin Mu didn't forget that he now had another person accompanying him.

Lin Mu looked around and realized that he was in the very outskirts of the city. The houses here were empty and the streets were bare. There was no one around here and it looked like this part of the city had been abandoned a long time ago.

"At least I'm in a secluded part of the area…" Lin Mu muttered and turned around.

~WHOOSH~

But just as he was about to leave, he sensed something from the distance.

"That aura…" Lin Mu felt someone familiar in the distance.

A wave of aura had spread over the area before being dispelled forcefully. This made Lin Mu furrow his brows as a hint of danger appeared in his mind.

He deliberated on whether it was worth taking a look or just returning to the Courtyard.

A few seconds later though, he made up his mind.
