Walker Of The Worlds

“Looks like you’re going to be famous, Brother.” Lu Xu said while the others showed agreement on their faces.

“It sure looks like that.” Lin Mu replied to Lu Xu who had spoken earlier. 

Lin Mu watched as the audience looked at them with great interest and excitement.

It was clear that they had brought a lot of attention to themselves this time.

‘It is still within the calculations… this should help the odds to change once more…’ Lin Mu thought to himself.

While he thought this though, one of the members of the Temple of the Four Guardian beasts approached them at the gate.

“The winners need to come with me.” The member said calmly.

The person didn’t seem to care much about who Lin Mu and the others were, and seemed to only think about the task they needed to do. It was normal since they had already been dealing with several winners before this and had seen the strong individuals among them.

“Let’s go,” Lin Mu said to his companions.

“Are we getting the rewards already?” Qian Wen inquired while walking.

“Yes, the winners will be given the rewards too. If you are injured, you can also get treatment.” The member of the temple replied.

“That’s good.” Ming Aolian was excited about what they might get.

Childe Wildfire was silent during this time though and just followed after the member of the temple. 

Thankfully the people didn’t follow them or stop them thus getting away from them was easy. After all, doing something like that would be the same as interfering with the work of the temple of the guardian beasts and would be deemed as an offense.

The people knew about it very well, and wouldn’t take the risk of getting published by the temple.

Instead of that, the people were busy discussing about the last spatial plane. They couldn’t help but be amazed by the methods that Lin Mu had used as well as the skill that Childe Wildfire had shown.

The people were very curious about the skills and wanted to learn them too. Of course, it was something that wouldn’t be possible normally, but just learning a bit about them would still be decent gain for them.

After all, one of the main reasons why people came all the way to the Dao Wind Empire to watch the tournament was to gain experience and learn about the various skills that other cultivators had.

It was a rare chance that one wouldn’t get normally as experts that had been in seclusion for a long time would appear.

Not to mention, the demonstration that the temple would do was also something that only fortunate people got to see.

Then there were the nobles who were also hard at work, trying to learn more about Lin Mu. Even if he had been ‘claimed’ by the Crown Prince, it didn’t mean that they couldn’t extend a cordial invitation to him.

Or at the very least, they could send him some customary gifts. 

It was up to Lin Mu whether to accept them or not. But simply attempting that was something that the nobles wouldn’t hold back from.

Of course, Lin Mu didn’t know all this that was happening in the background. All he was concerned about right now was to see what rewards they would get as well as the next round of the tournament.

Lin Mu and his companions were was guided to one of the bigger buildings that had been set up near the central areas. Here, one could see a lot of the temple members as well as guards.

Though there were no normal cultivators there. 

The guard had created a perimeter and non participants were not allowed to approach the building. One could see the importance of the building from this.

‘There’s certainly a lot of strong individuals inside there…’ Lin Mu could sense several strong immortal Qi fluctuations coming from the inside.

The strongest seemed to be at the Seventh Tribulation stage of the Immortal realm, while the weakest was at the Fourth Tribulation stage of the immortal realm!

It was evident that a lot of the temples strong members as well as elders were gathered there at the current time.

“This building wasn’t here before, was it?” Ming Dandan furrowed her brows after seeing it.

“This place is the Victors Pavilion and where the contestants shall be coming to collect their rewards. This is also where any extra announcements shall be made by the elders.” The person guiding them revealed.

“I see…” Lin Mu replied.

He looked around and used his immortal sense to check out the building sensing several arrays that had been set up. Among them, there were defensive as well as illusory arrays that were set to protect it.

‘There’s also a Vision Avoidance array… first time seeing this.’ Lin Mu thought to himself.

A Vision Avoidance array was a special kind of illusory array. It was relatively difficult to set up, as it needed some special resources to make it and also needed assistive tools to function.I think you should take a look at

It was an illusory array that allowed one to hide a location in such a way that only a few selected individuals would be able to see it.

‘They probably set the targets to the temple members as well as the winners. No wonder no one else saw this building before. It was hidden under the array and is probably how the elders are also monitoring the situation.’ Lin Mu thought.

He could sense several connective arrays that were linking it to the great array in the sky along with a few monitoring arrays.

Lin Mu and his companions were brought to a wide hall, where several counters were set up.

Though each of this counters were empty, and only had a single glass orb floating on top of it.

“This is the rewards hall. If you place your hand on the observation orb, it will check your achievements and grant you the respective rewards.” The member of the temple instructed. “It is up to you when to accept the reward. If you wish, you can also let them be delayed.’ He added before pointing towards another door.

“That is the entrance to the healing hall. If you are injured, you can go there to get your injuries mended.” He explained.

“Can we take beasts there too?” Ming Aolian asked.

“Ah good!” Ming Aolian was pleased. “Brother Mu Lin, I’ll take Ting there first.” 

“I should also get Mulch Crawl Eater Beast healed up.” Ming Dandan chimed in.

“Sure, you two can go ahead.” Lin Mu replied. “You can get the reward later.” 

“We’ll see you in a bit then!” Ming Aolian said before going to the healing hall with Ming Dandan.

With the two ming sisters gone, only them men were left.

“Will there be an announcement about the next round soon?” Lin Mu questioned.

“There shall be a week long break for now.” The member of the temple answered. “All of you will be informed through your tokens about any further updates.” 

“Huh? A week long break?” Lu Xu and Qian Wen were surprised.

“Why’s there a break?” Lin Mu asked.

Normally, they shouldn’t really be delaying the tournament that much and would continue as long as all the contestants were ready. 

‘Even if they need a break to prepare, it shouldn’t be a week long. Maybe a coupled days…’ Lin Mu thought.

“There have been a few incidents that have come to light and needed to be addressed by the temple first. In order to have a proper assessment, the temple has decided on a week long break.” The person replied.

Hearing this Lin Mu and Childe Wildfire were surprised.

Lu Xu and Qian Wen also wondered what exactly had happened.

It made Lin Mu wonder what could have happened that would force a change like this to happen in the tournament. But it wasn’t like he couldn’t guess a few things.

‘Is it the work of Black Fin island members?’ Lin Mu wondered as he remembered the words of the Countess.

They had a suspicion that Yao Changying was behind it, but they didn’t know the extent of it. For now though, it was clear that they would have to wait for a while before they got to learn more.

Childe Wildfire though was internally pleased, as he got the time he needed for his breakthrough.

‘I can do it without rushing now…’ he thought.

“I’ll leave you to get your rewards.” The member of the temple said before taking his leave.

With him gone, Lin Mu and the others were left alone.

“Well then, let’s see what we get!” Lu Xu was excited and quickly went to the observation orb.

He placed his hand on the orb, making it glow lightly before a few runes appeared in it.

Then in the next moment, a pouch appeared on the counter next to it!
