Lin Mu was possibly one of the people that was the most experienced with teleportation here. Especially when considering the fact that he could see the entire process happening in detail.
But that wasn't all. Entering the Spatial Plane through the channel, Lin Mu had to pass through the formations themselves, allowing him to observe them in further detail.
'This is better than before… I can see the flaws clearly!' Lin Mu's immortal sense was always scanning for it all.
His spatial perception was also active, letting him know when the Spatial plane was near, which wasn't long.
Unlike before, the four Spatial planes were created rather 'close' to the Rust Sky world. Even if there was the void separating the two, the closeness was still less than the previous thirty planes.
Lin Mu guessed that this was due to the fact that the Temple of the Four Guardian beasts had to add additional arrays to the spatial plane for security. To do that and also to keep it distant would not be viable, thus they took this approach.
Of course, to most people this was information that wouldn't even be observable. Neither would they care about it. But to Lin Mu, it meant differently.
It allowed him to know more about the limitations of the Spatial Plane as well as how they could be exploited.
'Next time I try to access the nodes, it'll be a lot easier,' Lin Mu thought.
That was all the time he got before Lin Mu arrived in the Spatial Plane.
~shua~
His body materialized in a flash of light along with his opponent.
Tian Ning stood on the solid ground, while power continued to ripple around him. He was already gathering power and was ready to attack.
Lin Mu had sensed it too and was alert from the start.
"Hope you give it your all." Tian Ning spoke. "Or you won't be able to last long."
"I won't let you be disappointed," Lin Mu said, Afternoon Pine, appearing in his hand.
~humm~
The sword seemed to have sensed the battle on the edge and was excited for it.
"Let's show them a good battle then!" Tian Ning said before taking the lead.
ƥandasnovel.com His fourth Tribulation Stage Immortal Realm cultivation base was displayed to the full extent as waves of Immortal Qi emanated from his body. Arcs of lightning crawled over his skin, illuminating his tattoos in a blue glow.
~Rumble~
Like a peal of thunder, Tian Ning struck Lin Mu.
'Fast!' Lin Mu was surprised by the man's sudden acceleration.
If it weren't for the fact that Lin Mu already had his immortal sense extended, he might not have even sensed the man get so close to him. Still, Lin Mu only had a fraction of a second to react and he swung the sword at a great speed.
~CLANG~
The sword slash formed from Metal elemental Qi collided against the lightning clad fist of Tian Ning.
~ZZZZZZ~
The lightning rippled against the sword slash, both as aggressive as possible. The yellow glow of the sword slash was slowly being eroded away by the blue lightning and it wasn't even a couple of seconds later that Lin Mu knew he had to avoid it.
"HAAA!" He pushed forth with the sword and used the force of the clash to move to the side.
~BOOM~
Tian Ning's fist slid off the sword slash before exploding on the ground behind Lin Mu.
'He's faster than Huangyu Shiyi for sure… Is he using lightning to accelerate himself?' Lin Mu could already analyze the man from his initial attack.
At the same time, it allowed Lin Mu to know that he would have to either match the man's speed or simply endure the attacks.
Doing the latter was possible for Lin Mu, but he also knew the drawback of that.
'I'll get slowed down if the lightning hits me. Tian Ning's proficiency with the lightning element might be high enough to even paralyze me due to my golden body.' Lin Mu thought to himself.
It was a weakness that came with the True Gold Body Forging arts, and Lin Mu also knew how to overcome it by using the earth. But that would also mean it would anchor him to one position not allowing him to dodge much.
'I still need to see what he's capable of… till then I have to keep my distance and observe.' Lin Mu decided.
~HONG~
With that done, Lin Mu rapidly swung Afternoon Pine as yellow metal pine trees rose from the sword slash!
The sword's skill was activated and Lin Mu directly infused his sword intent into it.
"Sword Intent, good!" Tian Ning though, was unfazed and instead looked to be excited.
~RUMBLE~
A layer of lightning covered his fists again as he used his previous attack again.
~CLANG~CLANG~CLANG~
But then a second later, the attack seemingly transformed!
"Thunderclap Nine Heavens Technique! Thousand Charge Lightning Fists!" Tian Ning roared.
His fists moved at unbelievable speed, turning into mere blurs. All the pine trees that were coming towards Tian Ning were getting struck by his fists before they could even reach him. Hundreds of illusory images of his fists appeared, striking the metal pine trees together.
Lin Mu's eyes went wide as he observed the sheer speed of the man.
'Only Little Shrubby might be faster than this…' Lin Mu furrowed his brows.
He was now starting to realize, just what level one needed to be at to fight the third prince to a standstill. Even if Tian Ning was a single stage below Feng Baxing, his skill could still make up for it. Also, it was quite likely that the Third prince reached the fifth stage due to a fortunate encounter.
Whatever it might be, there was still a chance Tian Ning could compare to the man.
'This is going to be tough…' Lin Mu thought to himself, as several tactics shuffled through his mind.
Picking the right one was difficult, and he would need to observe the man a bit more.
