Walker Of The Worlds

Chapter 325 - Avoiding The Check

Lin Mu had been planning to get a lot of stuff that he thought he would need in the future, thus that was exactly what he was buying right now. It wasn’t anything too important though, just things that would make the quality of his life better.

And since Lin Mu could keep everything in his ring, it was extremely convenient.

"You know there are special spirit tools that function as a house, you can simply get one of those in the future," Xukong suggested seeing Lin Mu buying all the things.

"Oh? You mean like the myriad armament canopy abode?" Lin Mu asked.

"Well, that one is a rather extreme example. But yes, something like that. Though if you want one in this world, it would be hard to find a spirit tool refiner that can make it." Xukong replied.

"Due to the difficulty, you mean?" Lin Mu questioned.

"Not really that, but rather due to the niche kind of a tool that it is. It isn’t really something used for offense, particularly so the people here may not be experienced in it. Though a small one should be around the same category as a high grade spirit tool." Xukong answered.

Lin Mu was intrigued by this and wondered if he could find anyone that could make it for him. But then he realized that while he did have a lot of gold, he didn’t have as many spirit stones.

’Hmm, I’ll need to get spirit stones.’ Lin Mu thought.

Lin Mu of course had other things that were worth a lot of spirit stones but he couldn’t sell those. They were of big use to him, like the pills and the tools that he already had. But he did have certain things he could sell, such as the spirit apples that he had.

His stock of the spirit apples had reached quite a large amount by now and their growth rate had also increased to seven apples a day ever since he reached the peak stage of the qi refining realm. He knew that the spirit apples that grew in the garden of karma were of a better quality than the ones that grew in the orchards and thus should be worth more.

"I should find a place to see how much they’re worth. This is Wu Lim city so it shouldn’t create any trouble even if I sell the spirit apples." Lin Mu muttered to himself.

Lin Mu had just finished buying from the seventh store when he noticed that the route was blocked for some reason. There was a crowd of people standing around and beyond them, he could see some guards standing.

"What’s happening here?" Lin My asked a person standing nearby.

"We don’t know either. The guards have put the entire district on lockdown and no one can leave till they verify their identities. They’re especially checking for cultivators, apparently." The person said.

"Huh? Why though?" Lin Mu asked further.

"Only the guards know, and they won’t tell us. They’re just forcing us to follow their orders." Another man that was standing beside him replied.

Lin Mu nodded and realized that there was probably some incident that had happened. He extended his spirit sense and checked all the other exits that were nearby, only to find the same thing happening there. He also noticed that the guards were all cultivators and were actually using spirit sense to check for cultivators.

As soon as Lin Mu saw that he retracted his spirit sense and knew that he couldn’t let his identity be exposed here. While he had been given a writ of authority which he could use, he knew that it was better to only be used in a time of emergency.

Since he still had an opportunity to avoid them right now, he chose to do that.

After all, with Lin Mu’s skills, a thing like this was quite easy. He quickly found a suitable place from where he could get to the roof of the buildings using Blink. Because the buildings and the houses in the city were rather closely packed, it was easy for Lin Mu.

But then upon reaching the roof, he suddenly laid down.

"Dammit! They got guards on the roof too?" Lin Mu cursed.

"Of course they would. If they didn’t, they would be rather stupid, wouldn’t they? A cultivator that was a criminal can easily scale buildings, this would be the most obvious route of escape." Xukong spoke.

Lin Mu realized his mistake and got back down. There were far too many guards even on the roofs and he knew even with blink there was a great chance he would be found out and he didn’t think Fade would be as effective here, the buildings were rather densely packed.

~Sigh~

"Seems like I need to go the proper way this time. I don’t want to create trouble unnecessarily the day that I come here." Lin Mu said to himself.

Lin Mu took out the writ of authority and put it into his sleeve to show it at the right moment. He then used his spirit sense to find a route that had the least amount of people. Even if guards knew that he was a cultivator, Lin Mu didn’t want other common people to know it.

After all, people liked gossiping and who knew whose lips would take it where and turn it into what. But just as Lin Mu was doing this, he suddenly felt something under one of the paths.

"Huh? Another cave?" Lin Mu muttered with surprise.

He had not expected that there would be caves here as well.

"It could be a sewer system," Xukong suggested.

"A sewer system? What’s that?" Lin Mu asked.

Xukong "...".

Lin Mu didn’t know why, but an awkward silence descended after asking that question.

"You don’t know what a sewer system is?" Xukong asked with apprehension.

"I know what sewer is, but not what a sewer system is." Lin Mu replied.

Xukong didn’t know if he should laugh or cry, but then he remembered the state of the northern town and even this city. He realized that there were actually surface level sewers here that were simply covered by large stone tiles.

~Sigh~

"I forgot what kind of a world this is..."
