Walker Of The Worlds

Lin Mu did not act immediately as he wanted to listen to more information from them. He had already waited for half an hour for what he had already gotten and decided to wait for a bit more.

His attention was also on Elder Liqiang and his condition. While he certainly was heavily injured, he was not going to die anytime soon. He was, after all, a Dao Shell realm cultivator and would not die that easily.

The Northern tribe people had evidently taken away the spatial storage treasure of Elder Liqiang, otherwise, he would have been able to heal himself with the pills he had. He would have even been able to use his other spirit tools to breakthrough the barrier that restrained it.

After all, Elder Liqiang was a formation master himself. While he might have been able to dismantle a normal barrier formation without the use of any supportive spirit tools, the barrier that blocked him right now was nothing like that.

While Lin Mu had not taken a detailed look at it, even he could tell that there were more functions to it than was apparent on the surface. Besides, if anything really happened, Lin Mu had the confidence that he could save Elder Liqiang immediately.

'Just wait for a bit more, Elder Liqiang. I need to get to the bottom of this. Once that is done, I assure you that they will pay deeply for it…' Lin Mu said in his heart.

While Lin Mu was thinking about this, the northern tribesmen were still conversing.

"Do we know whose remains are here?"

"No, that's why chieftess has come here herself. She's going to open the seal the contains it all and it will allow us to get it. And perhaps… this Noon Grass sect rat will serve as the fuel for it too."

"I see… but what about these weird beasts? I've never seen anything like them before nor read about them."

"We don't really know either. What we know is that they are mad for the most part and cannot be controlled directly. At most, we can control the formation arrays of this place and redirect them towards others."

"Oh? Haha! It will be fun when we get to see the Southerners squirm and die!"

The tribesmen laughed out loud.

Lin Mu listened to them silently and decided their fate at that moment.

"Time to finish this…" Lin Mu muttered and disappeared once again.

In the previous room, the twenty Nascent soul realm experts were doing their duty and keeping a guard on everything. Five of them were on each side of the wall and would patrol it, making sure that nothing approached the area.

Their gazes were sharp and alert, as if ready for everything. But all of a sudden, their gazes went dull and their faces blank. They stopped moving as a faint chant was heard in the hall.

The chant was strange and stirred one's mind before emptying it out entirely.

Twenty bladed weapons appeared in the hall and hovered behind the twenty men.

~shing~

~thud~

Then in one swift motion, twenty heads were lopped off. All of them fell to the ground at the same time and made a slightly higher noise than normal.

"Huh? Did you hear that?" Someone in the next room said.

"Did something fall?"

"Go check it out," The leader ordered.

"Yes!" one of the men said and started to move towards it.

"You fool, don't go alone. Take more people with you. Do you want to be ambushed?" The leader scolded.

His men looked at him apologetically for their mistake, but their expressions flipped entirely the next second.

"What?" The leader questioned, seeing the weird looks his men were giving him.

"T-That—" But before his men could say anything, he felt some grip his neck.

His breath was halted in that very second and he felt himself being lifted off the ground. His eyes bulged out, and he felt like his neck was put in a vice.

"You were correct about an ambush… but it was not them getting ambushed." Lin Mu said in a low voice.

"Lead—"

~Shing~

~thud~

The men were about to shout but could not as their heads suddenly rolled to the ground. The leader watched on in utter shock and his bulging eyes bulged out even more, making him look like a squished frog.

A faint glimmer of light could be seen rising from the headless bodies of the men that Lin Mu had just killed, but before the glimmer could increase anymore, the spirit weapons acted again.

Spirit Qi fluctuations emanated from the weapons, showing their power. Each and every one of them was a high grade spirit weapon, which was a bit surprising to the leader. He watched as the spirit weapons destroyed the Nascent souls of his men that were trying to escape.

"No… you… kill… can't… do… away…" The man struggled to speak, but it was all in vain.

His tongue tried to move, but the pressure on his neck only increased more.

"You don't need to move your tongue now. You will do it when I order you to do it later. For now… shut your mouth." Lin Mu said, his voice cold like the cellar of a tyrant's castle.

~swish~

Lin Mu's hand moved like the wind and struck the man in multiple places.

~CRACK~CRACK~CRACK~

~KACHA~

In just a second, the man's bones were split apart, and his limbs were broken. His spine was shattered from the waist as well, leaving him crippled. The sudden pain was enough to knock him out, and Lin Mu let go of him.

~thud~

His body fell down like a rag doll and his legs were bent at some awkward angles. Lin Mu looked at it coldly before he disappeared. A minute later, he returned with the rest of his companions.

All of them had tense expressions on their face due to the aura that Lin Mu was emanating right now. He had only told them one thing, and it was to 'follow'. And now they saw the reason for that, they were utterly taken aback.
