Walker Of The Worlds - Chapter 1579

Lin Mu could see the things the three men had done.

There were plenty of people they had killed and it was a regular job for them. That was entirely the reason why they had come to the Desolate Blood Battlefield. They were here to kill unsuspecting and inexperienced before taking their fortune.

It wasn’t anything uncommon, but these men were professional in this. They had been doing this for nearly a hundred years now and would even pick their targets beforehand. They would start by finding suitable people in the Middle Fort city and then tail them into the Desolate Blood battlefield.

As for whatever happened on the battlefield itself, it was not of concern to others. After all, death was common here and thousands of people died or went missing every month. Many times, it wasn’t even known if someone died or if they were just lost.

The plane was quite large after all, and contact with others was often limited. It wasn’t unusual for people to not see others for a year or two if they went far enough.

“They were relatively strong too and experienced…” Lin Mu only got another reminder of how important it was to have strong senses.

The three men could have at least dodged the first attack if they had managed to sense it coming in time. But now that they were dead, Lin Mu reckoned he may as well take all that they had.

He quickly gathered their weapons, armor, and the spatial storage treasures.

The three men had killed over fifty cultivators in their current visit to the Desolate Blood Battlefield and had thus obtained quite a lot of things. All of them now added to Lin Mu’s continually growing fortune.

‘More fortune taken from their providence… The Murdering Heart Sutra truly makes one want to take everything from others. Not just their material possession but also their souls.’ Lin Mu pondered to himself.

It was a cycle that wouldn’t end, thus Lin Mu simply decided to cut them short. Putting these thoughts to the back of his mind, Lin Mu decided to return for now.

“At least now we know how the Murdering Heart Sutra works… I’ll need to use it judiciously.” Lin Mu muttered to himself. “Let’s return to the base, Little Shrubby. I wanna eat something.” He spoke.

“Alright! I’ll make something.” Little Shrubby was happy to oblige.

Lin Mu got onto Little Shrubby’s back, and the two quickly returned to the temporary base. Once there, Little Shrubby got to making a meal while Lin Mu sorted through the items he had gotten from the three men.

The resources were the easiest to sort and were put away quickly, but when it came to the documents and such, Lin Mu took his time.

The three men actually had tens of cultivation techniques in their storage.

“Wait… doesn’t this sell for like ten thousand High Grade Immortal stones?” Lin Mu found an immortal cultivation technique that could be considered rather high quality.

He remembered having seen it in the Grand Sky Pavilion before.

But that wasn’t all, as he saw several lower quality cultivation techniques too. Then there were the Qi skills that Lin Mu found to be useful.

“I can learn these, too. Most of them are direct attack skills.” Lin Mu noted a few good ones that could be adapted into his fighting styles.

He put them in his list of tasks to do for later and read through the rest of the things.

And by the time Little Shrubby was done cooking, Lin Mu was done too.

“The food is ready!” little Shrubby called out, which he didn’t really need to.

After all, the aroma of the food was filling the entire cave and Lin Mu had smelled it a long time ago.

“Smells good!” Lin Mu gorged on the large meal while Little Shrubby ate as well.

Once the meal was done, Lin Mu cultivated and restored his expended immortal Qi.

Only when he felt that his body was in the optimum condition did he stop.

~huu~

Stretching his body, Lin Mu stood up.

Three days had passed since he had obtained the Murdering Heart Sutra and now he felt like it was time to get to the next task, the Immortal Stone Mines!

“The first mine isn’t that far, so I should head there.” Lin Mu picked out the route and called for Little Shrubby.

“We’re heading out?” Little Shrubby asked, feeling that they might not be returning to the base for a while.

“Yes. We’re gonna go to the Immortal Stone mines. Gather them up and then decide what to do next.” Lin Mu replied.

The Beast nodded his head in response, not having any opposition to his master’s words.

The two of them started their journey towards the first Immortal Stone mine, which was beyond where Lin Mu had fought Huangyu Shiyi.

The eleventh prince and the other cultivators had ended up in conflict due to the Immortal Stone mine too. Both parties had conspired to kill the other, but the prince was simply too strong for them to do so.

“It should be somewhere here…” Lin Mu now stood above the area where he had fought the prince.

His immortal sense spread around, looking for the Immortal Stone mine. There was a reason why it had not been found by others so far. It was deep in the ground and was well hidden.

And due to the characteristics of the Desolate Blood Battlefield, its energy fluctuations were further masked by the bloody aura.

“Oh?” but in all this, what Lin Mu found first was actually a cluster of Baleful Energies.

~PING~

He took out the Blood Vein Compass and saw it pointing to the ground diagonally.

“Let’s take a look then.” Having confirmed that there was probably a Blood Essence crystal here, he struck out with the Afternoon Pine.

~RUMBLE~

The ground shook and was unearthed as a ten meter wide hole was carved into it.

~WHOOSH~

And just as he had expected, a spout of Baleful Energies gushed out.
