Walker Of The Worlds

Lin Mu was circling the black crack with curiosity. It was completely unlike anything he had seen before. The wind which brought along leaves and dust spun around the black crack and then disappeared after a few seconds, depositing the leaves and dust below it.

Lin Mu watched the black crack for thirty minutes and observed that a few gusts of wind would come every few seconds and disappear after swirling around the black crack a few times. After 30 minutes he saw that a small pile of dust and leaves was created below the black crack.

'This is rather peculiar.' Lin Mu thought.

Lin Mu then searched the surrounding area to see if there are any more black cracks. He searched a radius of 200 meters yet could not find any more of them. He was intrigued by the black crack and was lost in thought.

'I'll wait and observe this black crack for some more time. I want to gain a certain level of understanding before I try to do anything to it.' Lin Mu decided.

Lin Mu then returned to the hunting shack and sat down to chant the severing heart sutra. Lin Mu cultivated for four hours, during which he first restored the spirit Qi that he had depleted in opening the spatial rifts and then increased his overall store of spirit Qi.

At the end of his cultivation session, Lin Mu measured the spirit Qi within his dantian and estimated that it had increased to around 600 wisps.

Lin Mu then cooked some meat for his dinner and ate it. While eating his dinner, Lin Mu once again saw the small four-legged silhouette spying on him from the bushes.

Determined to catch the silhouette this time, Lin Mu strengthened his legs with spirit Qi and shot towards the small silhouette. It only took Lin Mu three seconds to cross a distance of 100 meters, yet to his surprise, the small silhouette seemed to react much faster than him and disappeared into the forest.

"That beast is very fast for its size. Though it doesn't look very strong." Lin Mu muttered to himself.

Lin Mu then returned back to the shack to continue eating his dinner. After he was done with that, he sat down and chanted the calming heart sutra. This time it only took him ten minutes to assimilate all the vital energy from the beast meat, even though he had increased the meal's portion.

Lin Mu did not feel much difference in the vital energy within his body. It was as if he had finally reached a bottleneck and would need a long time to progress any further.

After Lin Mu was done assimilating vital energy, he thought about how he could increase his proficiency with the new skills. Although he knew how to use them instinctively, he still won't be able to use them at the right time during a battle.

'I need to make a training regimen, to increase the proficiency of my skills.' Lin Mu thought.

"The primary use for the first skill 'Flicker' is to dodge attacks. So I need to somehow simulate attacks." Lin Mu spoke to himself.

After tackling some ideas, Lin Mu finally decided upon a method he could use to train the skill. The first thing he needed to improve upon was to get the timing of the activation right. As the skill only lasted for a second, it was absolutely necessary that Lin Mu triggers it at the right moment.
