Walker Of The Worlds

Chapter 2339: Hidden Danger

Lin Mu though about it all, before it finally clicked to him.

"We're thinking about this in the wrong way." Lin Mu spoke. "We're forgetting the fact that we know more about the Spatial Plane than the others probably do. We know how the Death Qi boundaries work as well as the movements of the Chimeric Beasts." He stated.

"Of course!" Ziran understood it too now. "There's no way they would have figured it out the same way we did, or at the very least their understanding is not at the same level as us." He added.

"Hmm, if they considered this a safe place to set up camp due to the Death Qi boundaries, it is likely that they got ambushed due to this mistake. After all the Death Qi boundary might not have shifted for a long time leading them to take it as a permanent fixture." Crown Prince Feng Shun could also understand it all now.

All in all, it seemed like the strangers had fallen victim to their own mistakes. But that still left several questions unanswered.

"I suppose they ran away after the swarm of Chimeric Beasts charged in, which was probably why we found that buckle in the stomach of the Chimeric Beast." Elder Hu spoke. "But that doesn't solve the issue behind this isolating array either." He added.

"Hmm… since they activated this isolating array here with this tool, there was definitely something they wished to hide even if they were forced to run." Lady Kang said finding it unusual. "Perhaps that something is still hidden here." She added.

"Can you find or sense anything, Daoist Mu Lin?" Crown Prince Feng Shun asked.

"Let me try," Lin Mu said as he used his Spatial Perception. He had already looked around the building and the places that something could have been hidden in, but didn't find anything before. As such, there was only one place that was left where something could have been hidden.

Lin Mu's eyes moved down, as he checked the depths of the ground.

The others followed his gaze and realized that something might be down there. Thinking this, they too joined in, using their immortal sense to scan the ground as much as they could. And sure enough, about five minutes later, Lin Mu finally found something.

"It is there… very deep." Lin Mu said furrowing his brows. "How deep?" Crown Prince Feng Shun asked. "I didn't sense anything within the first eight hundred meters." "Same for me." Daoist Chu and a few others saids.

"Much deeper than that." Lin Mu answered. "At least nineteen hundred meters." He said feeling unsure.

"What is it?" Lady Kang could sense something was wrong. "Something more to it?"

"Yes… whatever is down there it wasn't buried… It burrowed there on its own." Lin Mu answered feeling doubtful about it still.

"Burrowed?" The Crown Prince raised his brows. "You mean it is something alive?" "Maybe… the energy coming from it does not seem something a normal creature would exude though." Lin Mu's spatial perception could see the faint glimmer of energy but couldn't match it with any kind of Qi or energy a living creature would release.

The group could sense the potential danger and decided to be careful.

"How do we check what it is?" Qiao De asked.

"I could go down, or we can dig it out." Lin Mu replied as he clenched his fist.

The group knew the method Lin Mu was suggesting and quickly moved up into the sky.

~SHUA~

Lin Mu raised his fist back and punched out as a ribbon of energy shot out from his fist!

Boulder Collapsing Fist: Third Form - Earthen Devastator!

~BOOM~

Just like many times before, a the ground below was pulverized by the power of the Earthen Devastator and the same could be said for the stone building. Lin Mu hovered in the air while being clans in the Longgui Bulwark Armor, ready for anything that might come his way.

At the same time, his Immortal Sense and Spatial Perception was active to the full extent, tracking anything that could harm them.

"Huh?" Still, this time Lin Mu's abilities did not manage to keep up.

~WOONG~

For in the next second, his vision and immortal sense went blank before his body was knocked back into the sky.

"DAOIST MU LIN!" Crown Prince Feng Shun and the others shouted as they saw him being launched into the sky.

"Careful!" Elder Hu who had been alert from the start, came to stand in front of Lady Kang as per his duties and struck out.

~BANG~

His armor clad fist struck a grey appendage that was covered in writhing energy that easily started to corrode the gauntlets.

"What is this?" Elder Hu was taken aback as the grey energy penetrated his armor and entered his hand. "ARGH!" A sharp pain could be felt from his hand, as if someone was hammering nails into it. ~SHUA~SHUA~SHUA~

But that was only the start, as multiple such appendages rose out from the dust cloud below and struck out at everyone.

"ENEMY ATTACK!" Crown Prince Feng Shun shouted before retaliating.

He threw out multiple palm strikes, that gathered wind elemental immortal Qi and turned into large imprints.

~BOOM~BOOM~BOOM~

The imprints forced the dust cloud to dissipate while also pushing back a few of the appendages. This ended up revealing what was hiding underneath, much to their shock.

"What in the…" Daoist Chu gasped as a massive creature was revealed.

It looked like a maggot with a circular mouth and no eyes. There were thousands of teeth in its mouth set in multiple rows, while tentacles extended out of the very same maw. More tentacles extended from its long body, but they were spread on the ground instead.

A few of them bled, as dark corrosive blood dripped out. Where ever the blood spread, it tainted it grey while making it all weaken.

~THUD~THUD~THUD~

They didn't get to see the creature for long though, as it was faster than they had expected.

~SCREECH~
