Lin Mu watched as the man went crazy in front of him. Taking a few steps to the back, he saw the man scratching at his chest. He ripped apart his robes, revealing his bare chest on which a black mark had appeared.
The mark was strange and didn't look anything like what Lin Mu had seen till now. The man looked at the man dumbfounded and his eyes looked to be dull as well.
"What is this?" Lin Mu questioned.
But the man did not answer.
~glug~glug~
Instead, his eyes rolled to the back of his head and bloody foam started coming out of his mouth.
~THUD~
The man fell to the ground lifelessly and went completely still.
"Huh? Was he poisoned?" Lin Mu felt confused.
But just as he was about to touch the man, he felt the body tremble ever so slightly.
~RUMBLE~
~POOF~
Suddenly the body started to swell and strong spirit Qi fluctuations came out of it. The spirit Qi fluctuations were very volatile and Lin Mu knew exactly what they meant this time.
"What in the!" Lin Mu quickly used fade and left the mine that way.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtBy the time he reappeared in the real world, Lin Mu was about a hundred meters high up in the sky.
~BOOM~
He looked below and saw a massive explosion that had just happened. Bloody smoke came out of the now collapsed mine and the formation arrays started to flicker out of existence as well.
"Damn! This is going to increase even more!" Lin Mu realized.
He could feel the self destruction formations activating and gathering power. The spirit Qi fluctuations coming from the mine were going far and wide, showing that the coming explosion would not be as small as the one that had occurred just now.
'If this blows up the village nearby will be caught in it too…' Lin Mu assessed.
He quickly scanned the formation, checking to see if there was any way to stop OT.
"There's no use. You don't have enough time to stop it nor delay it. Rather, if you interfere in it right now, it might reduce the time needed for it to explode or it might evens explode right away." Xukong warned.
Having learned this, Lin Mu immediately made his decision.
~WOONG~
Lin Mu rushed towards the Coal Fell village at great speed. The sound of his flight could be heard all the way in the village, making the villagers wonder what was happening.
Today was going to bet the strangest day in the lives of the villagers. First, they heard the loudest explosion they had heard in their lifespan and then they saw a man flying at blinding speeds.
The man appeared in the village and disappeared suddenly. He would then appear again, this time in some other location in the village. But the one thing that was common in all this was that all the houses or areas from where the villages were grabbed were in the eastern part of it.
In Less than a minute, Lin Mu had moved out over eighty percent of the Coal Fell village's population. They didn't even get the chance to get their belongings and items before leaving.
In fact, it could even be said that Lin Mu had involuntarily gotten most of the villagers out of the city.
~KABOOM!~
And just when Lin Mu was about to go back into the city, the explosion finally happened.
~THUD~
Even Lin Mu was sent flying back from the shock wave and ended up hitting a hill nearby. His body was embedded in the hill, but no damage was felt by him in reality.
~RUMBLE~
~TREMBLE~
The tremors of it spread far and wide, with over half of the Coal Fell village getting wiped out of existence.
"What happened?"
"Did the skies explode?"
"Are the heavens falling?"
"ITS THE END! ITS THE END OF THE WORLD!"
There were many questions the unaware villagers had. They hadn't even realized that the houses they had lived for so many years didn't exist anymore. At the distance they were, only a large cloud in the shape of a mushroom could be seen.
A couple of minutes passed like this as the villagers finally came around. They looked at each other, realizing that almost everyone from the village was there, including every child, woman and old person.
"Did anyone see my husband?" A middle aged woman asked.
Her expression was anxious and she didn't know why, but fear was rising in her mind as well.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe didn't even get to take a look at Lin Mu before she was taken away and left here. Lin Mu was simply too fast to see for them.
~whoosh~
And just as the villagers were getting even more restless, they heard the flutter of robes coming from the distance.
"Immortal!"
"It's an immortal!
They all shouted, as if they had seen god.
To them who were from backwards environment, a cultivator was a rare existence, and one that could fly was even rare.
One must know that in their village, there were no cultivators above the Qi refining realm. To them just reaching the first stage of the Qi refining realm was enough. They neither had the capital nor the talent to do either of those things though.
Lin Mu looked at the villagers down below and saw the expressions.
'This…' Lin Mu felt a bit conflicted now.
'In a way, this is so much similar to how I was when I had met a proper cultivator back then.' Lin Wu thought to himself.
"Lord Immortal… do you know what happened there?" an elderly man asked.
He was wearing different robes than many other people and looked to be a bit on the fatter side.
"An explosion happened. I took you all out before the village was destroyed." Lin Mu answered sincerely.
Hearing this, a lot of the men didn't believe it all. But then it happened…
"NO!!!!" A woman started to cry loudly and others soon joined in.
~Sigh~
Lin Mu didn't know what to do here other than give them some compensation.
