Walker Of The Worlds-Novel

The chill from the Spiral Flake Crystal constantly entered Lin Mu's hands, making them tremble lightly.

He circulated his Qi and vitality, in his hands making the cold feel much less apparent. Lin Mu knew that if he didn't get used to the cold first, it would distract him later when he tried to peer into the secrets of the Spiral Flake Crystal.

Thus for the first hour, he simply let his body adapt to the coldness of the Spiral Flake Crystal. Thankfully, with his strong physique, it didn't take long. He could even modulate it further by letting some fire elemental Qi circulate in his body.

Having done this, he managed to reach a point of equilibrium and decided to proceed.

'Let's see what it truly holds…' Lin Mu closed his eyes and chanted the calming heart sutra.

Then a few seconds later, his immortal sense rose from his head and entered the Spiral Flake Crystal.

Lin Mu felt like he was pulled into a vortex of some kind and felt his mind spin. But he didn't let that make him waver and continued to focus. A few minutes later, he felt like he could stabilize himself.

And when he did, he discovered something bigger.

'This… there's a large space in the Spiral Flake Crystal?' Lin Mu was surprised.

Lin Mu didn't know how he had not sensed it before. But it also made him understand why Senior Xukong wanted him to obtain it.

"No wonder… this Spiral Flake Crystal has a natural space within it… but at the same time, it's different." Lin Mu let his perception wander in the empty space.

At first, he felt like it was a more isolated form of spatial division. But after some time passed, he realized something else.

"Wait a second… this isn't the void… it isn't the minor void." Lin Mu's brows furrowed, finding it to be stranger and stranger.

The characteristics of the minor void were not present in his space.

'This is place is… blank.' Lin Mu couldn't feel any energy fluctuations, or interference here.

It was as if this was a place where nothing existed.

If it weren't for the fact that Lin Mu knew he was just seeing this with his immortal sense, he would have been convinced that he was hallucinating a place like this.

'With such a new form of space, I should be able to learn some new things.' Lin Mu reckoned this was the reason why Xukong had asked him to get the Spiral Flake Crystal.

It had mysteries that could not be seen easily, and he couldn't use his normal methods of probing it either. Lin Mu had used his Spatial perception before, but it only made the Spiral Flake Crystal look like a glowing dot.

He still couldn't sense the insides of the crystal with that method.

Lin Mu could only let his immortal sense wander inside the crystal and explore it. Hours passed like this and Lin Mu didn't find anything.

'This is getting exhausting… I can feel my mind tiring…' It was unusual for Lin Mu to get tired this quickly.

He had worked on formations and arrays for over a month non stop and was still fine. Thus it was surprising to him that he was tired already. Especially since his spirit sense had already been converted into the Immortal sense.

Normally speaking, he shouldn't be tired even if he continued to observe for weeks on end.

But after a minute or so, Lin Mu realized that it might be due to the place he was in.ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ novelenglish.net . (f)ire.ɴet

"Is this the characteristic of the Spiral Flake Crystal, perhaps?" Lin Mu guessed.

He didn't know how or why it could cause something like this, but he did know that it wasn't a big issue. As long as he rested for a bit, he should recover to his normal state.

Having understood this, Lin Mu decided to be done for now.

~shua~

He withdrew his immortal sense and opened his eyes. They flickered lightly as they gazed at the Spiral Flake Crystal that was held in his two hands.

~huu~

"That was a different experience for sure…" Lin Mu let out a long breath.

"Looks like you've seen the secret of the Spiral Flake Crystal now." Xukong's voice was finally heard.

"I did senior… I never thought there would be a space like this in the Spiral Flake Crystal." Lin Mu replied in surprise. "How is there a space that is not of the void?" he couldn't help but question.

"This is one of the reasons why I wanted you to get this. The Spiral Flake Crystal is one of the few materials in the universe that can naturally form an independent space. This space isn't linked to any of the voids and is also invisible to most people.

Even people with Spatial Perception are unable to sense its presence and to them, the Spiral Flake Crystal appeared like a shining stone." Xukong answered.

"But what am I supposed to do with it? Just observer it? I didn't find anything to observe inside it." Lin Mu asked next.

"That is right. You just observe it and spend your time inside it. The Space inside it has different characteristics than the void and will actually help you hone your spatial perception." Xukong revealed.

"Hone my Spatial Perception?!" Lin Mu said in shock. "Really?" he couldn't help but doubt it for a second.

"Indeed. Why don't you try to see now?" Xukong confirmed. "Even if it was just your first time with the Spiral Flake Crystal, there should still be some level of improvement." He suggested.

"Alright." Lin Mu nodded his head before closing his eyes.

He activated his Spatial perception and opened his eyes. They had a faint silver outline around them that was hard to see. If one didn't stand close to Lin Mu, they wouldn't even know there was a change in his eyes.

But to Lin Mu, the change was visible.

"This… I can see the Spatial Fabric in higher detail!"
