Walker Of The Worlds

Chapter 1220 Three Choices

　　Along the explosion a plume of fine dust was shot out of the hole created by piercer. It was evidently the crushed material and was rather fine, almost like dust. 

Lin Mu observed it and found it to be a lot deeper than the hole created by Devastator. But at the same time it was narrow and definitely could not be entered like the large tunnel. 

~Sigh~

”While its deeper, its not usable.” Lin Mu muttered to himself.

While he observed his handiwork, the Haima Tribe people walked up to him feeling shocked. They couldn’t muster any words to speak and knew that the person in front of them was very powerful.

One of them was especially terrified, this being none other than Jehu, the Haima warrior who could speak in broken Dao script. He had fought with Lin Mu and so had the other two warriors.

While they had surrendered after seeing him overwhelm them easily before, realizing that he was simply holding back was even more terrifying for them. They had never seen anyone that could cause this much damage to the Rust Hail Mountains, and it was chilling to imagine what would happen if an attack like that struck them.

Perhaps even their bones and souls would be reduced to nothingness.

”A-are you done, Noble Lin Mu?” Elder Niji finally spoke.

”Yes… though it seems like our endeavor would be a lot difficult than I thought.” Lin Mu replied.

”But you managed to create such a large hole.” Elder Niji said in doubt.

”I know… but this is not enough. Even if I continually do this, which I cannot, the time needed to drill through the entire mountain would take far too long. Besides… there is another problem,” Lin Mu said and pointed to the edges of the hole. “We might have a chance if the hole stayed as it is… but this is recovering.” 

Elder Haima looked closer and saw that the rock was actually growing back!

It was slow, but the longer they watched, the faster it was getting. While it was not closing abruptly, Lin Mu could estimate that the entire hole might close up in a few days. As for the hole made by Piercer, it would take even less time, perhaps just a few hours.

With this disappointing discovery, Lin Mu guessed that he might need to take the route of using a teleportation formation. But for that, they would need to be lucky enough to catch someone that had just been banished here.

Doing that was a lot more difficult than just talking about it. The teleportation array would only appear for a brief moment, then one would also need to get there in that time. At least Lin Mu had the confidence of locking onto the array, as long as his spirit sense touches it once.

Then even if it diapered, he might slit be able to decipher it.

Elder Niji who had been watching Lin Mu who was thinking intently, felt a little lost.

”Do we not have a solid chance?” Elder Niji asked.

”We might… or might not currently. But we definitely will in the future.” Lin Mu said with confidence.

Lin Mu after all, had more than just his own expertise to depend on. As long as Xukong awakened, Lin Mu was sure that he would be able to figure out some solution.

’Then there is also the factor of adapting. Once my body has gotten used to this place, I might be able to do a lot more.’ Lin Mu thought and raised his hand towards the mountain wall.

”Meld…” Lin Mu lightly spoke and waved his hand.

~shua~

The mountain wall was soundlessly cut!

Elder Niji barely noticed it but the Haima tribe warriors didn’t.

~step~step~

”Hmm… manipulating space here is indeed harder… the spatial fabric is tough.” Lin Mu noted.

The cut in the mountain wall was about a meter deep and was smooth, just like meld had done before. But this cut was made with Lin Mu’s full force of Meld. On Xiaofan world, Lin Mu barely needed this much power to use Meld or cause damage with it.

Which only showed him the different levels of spatial laws in higher worlds. Xukong had already informed him about this and it was just Lin Mu confirming it. 

’So now I have three paths… either find a teleportation array and reverse it, blast the mountain apart with Devastator or cut it with meld.’ Lin Mu assessed his choices.

All three of them would need time for him to work with. But the latter two options were something that were sure shot. All Lin Mu needed was more time, and he would eventually be able to do it.

”Let’s return for now.” Lin Mu said.

”Alright.” Elder Niji agreed, not even bothering to ask how Lin Mu had cut the mountain there.

’He didn’t even touch it, and unlike before, there was no powerful pressure. It was silent and undetectable… a lot more dangerous.’ Elder Niji thought.

The group returned to the outpost and descended into the Haima tribe from there. Lin Mu talked with Elder Niji for a few hours before he was given a place to sleep. 

It was an entire house that was close to Elder Niji’s own house and was good enough for Lin Mu. 

”The bed is rather large… though guess it is meant to accommodate the tall bodies of the Haima tribe people.” Lin Mu said, seeing the bed that was over two meters tall and four meters wide. 

Though the bedding on it was not something that Lin Mu would prefer. Thankfully, he had a lot of soft mattresses stored in the ring. Simply putting one on the bed frame, Lin Mu was ready to do something he had not done for a long time: Sleep.

Ever since walking up in the cavern down in the Broken Chasm, Lin Mu had been awake. It had now been over two months and it was about time he rested.
