Walker Of The Worlds

Unaware of the conversation between the elders and Patriarch Hua, Lin Mu appeared in the space of the ring. Appearing in the dark yet 'starry' space was always a surreal experience.

The silvery streaks of spatial energy continued to move around, fading in and out of existence, while the Ethereal altar's glow could be seen in the distance. The glow was like a long pillar of light that was gently radiating out of the light.

Lin Mu flew towards the altar, knowing that Senior Xukong was waiting for him there. Upon reaching there, Lin Mu saw the strange phenomenon that was taking place there. Or more like he was forced to see it.

The strange aura coming from the altar was hard to miss. Especially the pitch black runes that kept on materializing and turning into thin needles that shot up and disappeared.

"What is going on, senior?" Lin Mu asked.

"I have no idea… but seeing as the altar is possibly doing this and your state before, its likely to be another part of the Nine Divine Heart Sutras." Xukong replied.

Lin Mu furrowed his brows and approached the altar. He was the only one who could actually get close to it, and even Xukong was unable to break through the barrier. It was on an entirely different level and he had no confidence to do it even if he used his main body.

Approaching the barrier, Lin Mu tried to go past, but was unable to.
