Walker Of The Worlds

Chapter 520 - A Shrine And Bilao

Lin Mu’s eyes lit up as he liked this plan. For the first time, he had a concrete plan that would work.

"Alright then, I’ll do this and get the key first." Lin Mu said.

"Yup. And by then I’ll get the diversion of the other two vaults ready. It will take me a bit to check around and get to you." Jiao Fang spoke in a serious tone.

He then took out a jade slip from his spatial storage ring and held it out for Lin Mu.

"Here, register this in your communication jade slip so we can talk in the sect." Jiao Fang said.

Lin Mu gladly obliged and registered the Qi signature of Jiao Fang in his own communication jade slip.

"I’ll leave for the shrine now." Lin Mu said.

"You need to be careful then, and hide well. Even if some disciples see you and it is accidentally reported you may get found out and the patriarch may come to check up on the shrine before time." Jiao fang said.

"You don’t need to be concerned about that, I got a plan." Lin Mu said before he left the residence and closed the door behind him.

Jiao Fang waited a few seconds before taking a peek outside, but was then shocked.

"Huh? Where the hell did he disappear to?" Jiao Fang said, feeling bewildered.

~Sigh~

Sighing to himself, Jiao Fang realized the man was way beyond his understanding and it was better if he did not ask too much. That was also the reason why he had not asked Lin Mu how he had found out about his secret.

Deep in his heart, he was afraid that Lin Mu may kill him to hide his own secrets. Thus, he considered this option to be the better one.

"I should get to my part too... perhaps I make some gains too..." Jiao Fang muttered to himself before leaving the residence as well.

***

Lin Mu didn’t tell Jiao Fang that he did not care about being able to hide at all. His skills that were conferred by the ring were strong enough to take him through this all with barely any problems.

He had left the residence by blinking away and then sinking to the ground. From there he quickly made his way up the sect, right to where the residences of the elders were. These residences were bigger than those from the Herb Peak or the Pill peak and looked to be better maintained.

"That should be the path," Lin Mu muttered as he saw a small path that went to the depths of a few trees.

Going along with it, he soon came upon the shrine that they were talking about. Looking at the shrine, Lin Mu saw a few tablets kept inside it.

"Oh, so it’s an ancestral shrine for the people of the sect." Lin Mu spoke.

"It should be the shrine for people who have lived in the sect for many generations. Many disciples get married within the sect and have their children, who eventually grow up and have their own children.

Such families don’t have any homes in the secular world and thus end up making ancestral shrines in the sect itself." Xukong explained.

"Ah, no wonder Jiao Fang said barely anyone comes here. If they don’t have any ancestors here, they would have no use visiting the shrine. But then, if the sect patriarch visits this place and uses it to keep the key, he must be linked to it or something." Lin Mu replied.

"Could be... but it’s none of our concern," Xukong said.

"That’s true. Let’s just hurry up and take the key." Lin Mu said as he approached the shrine.

He held the medallion in his hand and it interacted a bit with the formations of the shrine before allowing him to enter. If one were to see this scene, they would think that the formation was malfunctioning as it had activated without anyone being there.

After all, unless they used their spirit sense to check the ground, they would never realize that Lin Mu had been hidden there all along.

Once the formation let him in, Lin Mu rose up to the floor of the shrine and saw a box kept at the back.

"That should be it..." Lin Mu muttered as he opened it.

"There we go," Lin Mu said as his eyes lit upon seeing the key to the vault inside.

This key was in the form of a formation plate and was made out of metal, along with a few precious gems. It was evidently of a much higher quality than the formation plate that Lin Mu had used to set up the illusory formation before.

Quickly putting the key into his ring, Lin Mu blinked out of the shrine and went away from the area.

’May as well check out the area.’ Lin Mu thought and he went to the location of the first vault.

This vault was located where the core disciples lived and was guarded by a couple of them as well. Lin Mu took a simple glance and could tell these formations would also take time to break.

He then went to the next vault, which was located deeper within the large compound where the elders of the main peak lived. Lin Mu was causally taking a look around the residences when he spotted someone he recognized.

"Alchemist Bilao... so this is where he has been residing." Lin Mu murmured.

He was currently around a luxurious residence that was surrounded by a lot of disciples. They were evidently guarding it and would turn away anyone that got close to it.

"Do not approach the residence, Alchemist Bilao is deep in preparation." One of the guard disciples warned another disciple who had gotten close.

That disciple took heed of the words and quickly went in a different direction.

Lin Mu though had no such problem, and he easily sneaked into the residence.

’Wonder what a person who is close to a heavenly tribulation feels like?’ Lin Mu thought.
