Walker Of The Worlds

Lin Mu knew that retrieving lost objects from the minor void was a relatively easy task for him. Though for almost all others, it might be an impossible task depending on how long or where the object was lost.

Usually, the destruction of a spatial storage treasure meant that the things kept in it were as good as destroyed, but some could eject the objects into the minor void instead. There were even specialists whose main occupation was to retrieve these objects.

Of course, someone that did this needed to be an expert in not only formations but also have a good affinity for the spatial element. The first requirement was sufficiently easy to fulfill, but someone having an affinity for the spatial element was incredibly difficult.

Thus, the specialists who could do this were in high demand. While they could not be found in the Xiaofan world, there were others that could be found in the higher world. And Lin Mu was about to become Xiaofan world's very first object recovery specialist.

"Here it is." Elder Liqiang handed the fragments of the ring to Lin Mu.

He nodded his head and took them before closing his eyes. He chanted the calming heart sutra and used his spirit sense to carefully analyze the metal fragments. There were almost no traces of spirit Qi left in it after all this time, but after about half an hour, Lin Mu managed to find a very tiny link.

It was volatile and seemed like it would disappear at any time.

'Rather than a link, it's more of a loose string…' Lin Mu thought to himself.

He tried to follow the path of the link and opened his eyes, that faintly flickered. Spatial perception activated and Lin Mu's gaze extended past the reality. The others that were sitting around and watching him didn't know what he was doing.

'Why is he just staring blankly?' they wondered.

But then, five minutes later, they saw Lin Mu extended his hand.

"Open," Lin Mu wordlessly said.

~shua~

Then under the stunned gazes of everyone, the space in front of Lin Mu started to distort. As if some fabric was being wrinkled, the space moved, then a second later it tore apart.

~HONG~

"How…" Elder Weimin and Elder Liqiang were stunned.

"Marvelous…" The supreme elder was amazed. 'Even those people from the Sky precepts sect can't do this, can they?' he thought.

Lin Mu's hand then entered the spatial crack that had just opened in front of him and searched inside. His spirit sense entered it as well and quickly found the objects that they were looking for.

"Got it," Lin Mu said before withdrawing his hand.

When Lin Mu's hand came out, one could see a long rod like object in it.

~clang~

Lin Mu put it down on the side and reinserted his hand into the spatial crack to find the other objects. About a minute later, Lin Mu was done pulling out all that he could find in there and finally decided to close it.

~Shua~

The black hole in the fabric of space started to shrink before it mended itself, and everything returned to normal.

"Brother Lin Mu this…" Elder Liqiang was at a loss for words.

"Ahahha!" Jing Luo couldn't help but laugh. "This isn't even the most absurd thing he's done."

"Brother Lin Mu's attainments in the spatial element are truly great." Hua Langya couldn't help but say.

"They're just so-so. I have yet to learn a lot of things." Lin Mu replied calmly.

"Ahahah, Brother Lin Mu is simply too humble." The supreme elder said with a smile.

"We can set up the teleportation gate now." Jing Luo said after checking that the components were all right.

"Mm, please get it ready. It's best we are done before Patriarch Hua returns." Lin Mu agreed.

"What's the input on patriarch? Has he made any progress yet?" Elder Liqiang questioned.

He was the one who was out of the loop for the most part and thus wanted to know if their plan was going well or not.

"The last I heard, they are almost done with the initial negotiations. A few representatives from the Long Cloud Sect will be willing to talk to us under special conditions.

What those conditions are though, we will only know after the patriarch returns." Hua Langya informed.

"Hmm… tell them to head to the Hong Lin kingdom. They can use the teleportation gate there and use that to return to Noon Grass sect. They'll save a lot of time that way." Lin Mu stated.

"I should be done setting it up in a couple of days, just before they are done with their work as well." Jing Luo commented.

Lin Mu nodded his head and let Jing Luo leave to begin his work.

~Rumble~

While they were talking, a low rumbling sound was heard.

"Hmm?" They all looked towards the source and saw that it had come from the outside.

Lin Mu raised his brows and sensed something.

~Creak~

He opened the window and peered outside, only to see the figure of Little Shrubby.

"Master look!" Little Shrubby called out.

The others heard his growl too and came to see what was happening. Their eyes went wide seeing the scenes.

"Where did you get that bird?" Lin Mu asked, seeing the large beast that Little Shrubby had with him.

The beast looked like an oversizes ostrich and had a frog like bulge on its throat that moved up and down. The beast was currently being held by its neck by one of the prosthetic hands and looked to be in a pitiful state.

"A Howler Ostrich?" Elder Weimin recognized the beast.

"I found a few of them wandering on the outside of the sect. I was looking around and this one came to fight me. I thought it would taste good, so I brought it!" Little shrubby said happily.

~GROAN~

The Howler Ostrich on the side didn't seem pleased upon hearing his words though and cried in displeasure, though only a groan could be heard  due to its neck being clutched.
