1535 Falling Sky Lance
Walker Of The Worlds
Lin Mu observed the rock creature that was about seven meters tall.
It had four arms and four legs, but had no eyes other than just a large mouth on its oval body. There were cracks on its body from which red flames were bursting out as well as parts that were made out of flesh.
‘Hmm… this one should be at least equal to the Third Tribulation Stage of the Immortal realm.’ Lin Mu estimated.
The creature was seemingly wandering around the area, with no obvious goal. Lin Mu couldn’t even tell if the creature had any intelligence or if it had any aim.
pAn,Da n<0,>v,e1 ‘Its existence itself is strange…’ Lin Mu thought before rising up from little Shrubby.
He let little Shrubby wait there as backup, if he needed it and pursued the creature himself. Lin Mu entered the ground using Phase and got closer to the strange rock creature. He had observed its patterns and knew that it couldn’t sense him.
That meant that the creature didn’t really have anything like Immortal sense. This gave Lin Mu an advantage and he could ambush the creature.
‘Hmm… should I try that? This might be a good choice to test it on.’ A technique came to Lin Mu’s mind.
~SHUA~
Lin Mu appeared high above the Rock creature and energy fluctuation appeared around him. A second later, the sound of heartbeats could be heard as an aura of heaviness surrounded him.
~huu~
Taking a deep breath, Lin Mu released the control of his weight and instead amplified it!
‘Aspects of Heaviness!’ Lin Mu activated his Dao Skill.
~BOOM~
With the sudden increase in his mass, Lin Mu descended like a meteor. He kept his legs and arms close to his body, turning into a longitudinal streak of fire.
‘I’ll have to change robes again…’ Lin Mu’s robes had already been ignited from the friction.
~GUGA~
The rock creature seemingly heard the noise and ‘looked’ up despite having no eyes. But unfortunately for it, all it saw was a long fiery streak descending from the sky that was just a few meters away from it.
If one looked from far away, they would think that a long fiery lance was falling from the skies.
~KABOOM~
Lin Mu’s mass combined with the momentum of his body shook the very air, and struck the rock creature. It didn’t even have a time to cry out before it exploded into bits.
But the process didn’t stop just there. Lin Mu was going too fast and his body directly pierced the ground.
The kinetic energy from his body transferred to the ground and made it tremble.
~RUMBLE~
~BOOM~
After a short delay, a loud explosion could be heard as an area of around six hundred meters directly collapsed into itself!
A crater that was nearly a hundred meters was formed and at the center of it one could see an even deeper hole. The hole was a lot narrow, being only a few feet wide.
A minute passed by as the things settled in the area.
“Ugh!” Lin Mu climbed out of the hole, feeling a bit disoriented.
His robes were basically gone and even his body had fine injuries on it. Thin cracks could be seen on his skin which was glowing in a golden light.
“It’s still enough to injure me…” Lin Mu muttered to himself.
~WHOOSH~
A second later, a red blur appeared next to Lin Mu.
“Are you okay!?” Little Shrubby asked with concern.
“Yes, I’m okay. I just miscalculated a bit…” Lin Mu replied as he observed his body’s state. ‘The Aspect of Heaviness is still quite dangerous to use on myself. Though its effects are also quite good…’ he glanced at the devastation caused by it.
This was one of the skills Lin Mu had come up a while ago but had not tested it until now.
He could have tested it on plain ground or a mountain, but knew that it would not be a true test. After all, the main target of it should be an enemy. But most humans would be too small for Lin Mu to properly target.
He would need a beast that was large enough for it, or some other object. Thus, when he saw the Rock creature, he reckoned it would be the perfect target for it. Plus, the creature had high defenses and thus it would be good for a piercing attack like the one he had come up with.
‘It’s good that I didn’t use my full power. If I added the other addition I had made, I might have been injured even more.’ Lin Mu thought to himself. “I need to improve my defenses even more if I am to use this without having to worry much.” He said to himself.
“Since you’ve made this skill, you should give it a name. It is strong enough to warrant one now.” Xukong said with a chuckle.
“Hmm… I’ll name it… Falling Sky Lance.” Lin Mu stated.
“Falling Sky Lance, a decent name.” Xukong acknowledged thought in his mind he was a lot more impressed. ‘He combined body cultivation, Qi skills and his Dao skill into one to come up with this. If he can stabilize it more and improve his defenses, the power will be several times more than what it is now.’ He reckoned.
Xukong wondered just how much better this skill could get, though he knew that Lin Mu had gotten the inspiration for it from his first Immortal Tribulation.
“I’ll need to test it a bit more later. But for now, let’s see where that crystal went.” Lin Mu spread his immortal sense around and quickly felt the baleful energy. “There it is,”
The black grey crystal had been flung quite far from where the Rock creature had been at. Though Lin Mu was surprised to see that it was fully intact. There was not even a single scratch on it.
‘It’s quite durable huh… that expands its uses more.’ Lin Mu thought.
