Walker Of The Worlds

The appearance of a Fifth Tribulation Stage Immortal was something Lin Mu had expected, eventually. But the fact that they were coming towards them meant that something had changed.

'Who might this be?' Lin Mu wondered.

After all, the number of Fifth Tribulation Stage Immortals in the entire tournament was limited.

Other than the ones in the top five, that Lin Mu knew about, there were several more that were spread in the lower ranks.

'If I recall correctly, there was just one Fifth Tribulation Stage Immortal that was defeated before this round. Which leaves a total number of eighteen of them. Of these eighteen, I know that the four among the top five are not here.' Lin Mu thought about who it could be.

He had also sensed eight other Fifth Tribulation Stage Immortals enter the other planes, which left him with around ten that he had no idea where they might be.

'While the probability of them being in this plane is low, there might still be a couple of them. Though depending on who they are, we'll have to adjust our strategy.' Lin Mu thought to himself.

After all, the Fifth Tribulation Stage Immortals were different from the Fourth and Third Tribulation Stage Immortals that they had faced so far. These were the elites among the elites and could already be elders in various positions.

As for those that were at the Sixth Tribulation Stage of the Immortal, they would be too occupied to participate in the tournament, usually. While they didn't have a restriction that prevented them from participating, it was already confirmed that no one of that level was taking part.

As for the Seventh Tribulation Stage Immortals, it wasn't even that one needed to think about. The number of experts at that level were limited and they wouldn't sully their reputation trying to compete with juniors.

While they wouldn't be opposed if they tried to participate, their standing would utterly fall. Being mocked by fellow experts was not something they would like after all. One would have to be utterly shameless to try something like that.

And above all, they would even be shunned by the members of the temple of the Four Guardian beasts. While it was fully within their rights to participate, the members of the temple could easily see when someone was trying to take advantage.

So even if they do win and get rewards, their work after that would get difficult. After all, the temple's displeasure would be felt by several others and they would rather avoid a person like this than offend the temple by associating with them.

It was basically a way to commit social suicide.

No sane immortal would try that. Though there had indeed been a few that had done it in the past. While their attempt had worked, the aftereffects had been less than desirable.

In the end, they had to leave the Rust Sky World itself to be able to live with some semblance of peace. But with the ever-extending reach of the Temple of the Four Guardians, it was unknown whether they had been able to do that or not.

~SHUA~

But a couple of minutes after Lin Mu felt the presence of the Fifth Tribulation Stage Immortal, he also sensed the presence of several Fourth and Third Tribulation Stage immortals that were now heading their way.
