Walker Of The Worlds

Chapter 954: Retaliation And Question

The cultivators who were controlling the Bull Whip Chain formation were currently whispering amongst themselves.

”We canʼt let him go. The mayor will not be pleased with it.” One of them spoke.

”Of course we canʼt. Havenʼt you seen his strength? Heʼll be the perfect candidate for the mayor to use.” Another cultivator said.

The leading cultivator felt the communication jade slip on his waists hum and he checked it for a message.

”What is it?” the others asked.

”Itʼs the mayor. He informed the lord and they definitely want him.” The leader replied.

”Do they know who he is though?”

”No… but that doesnʼt matter. The conflicts are ongoing and it is the right time. We shall fish in the muddied waters while the others are busy. Once it is all over, will be the wiser.” The leader stated.

Hearing this, the cultivators nodded, and a serious expression appeared on their faces.

”Letʼs do it then.” They said before making a wide hand seal.

A glowing streak of light was released from the city below as it rose up into the sky. The streak of light merged with the formations of the Bull Whip Chain Formation and made it transform.

~HONG~

The chain trembled in Lin Muʼs hands as he felt something different from it.

~WOONG~

The chain suddenly turned into runes and slipped out of Lin Muʼs hands, as if grains of sands slipping past his fingers. They reformed back into the chain some distance away and then split apart even more.

~shing~

~shing~

~shing~

Now, instead of one chain, three of them appeared and let off a humming sound. The ends of the chain started to morph as well and transformed into a sharp spike.

”The amplification will only last a short while before weʼll lose control. We need to finish it before that.” The leading cultivator said to his companions.

~CLANG~

The chains shot towards Lin Mu like a dangerous viper and attacked him. He dodged around with Blink but realized that the speed of the chains was many times more than before.

”The spirit Qi powering it has multiplied? What was that thing which merged into it?” Lin Mu questioned as his brows furrowed.

One of the chains made a circle around Lin Muʼs back and attacked from below, to which Lin Mu kicked it.

~DENG~

As if a bell had been hit, the chain recoiled and bent back. A look of surprise appeared in the eyes of the cultivators controlling it.

Taking this opportunity, Lin Mu blinked and grasped the chain that had gotten out of their control temporarily and held it tightly in one hand.

”PULL IT BACK!” The leading cultivator shouted.

”No, so fast…” Lin Mu said as he raised his fist up high.

Spirit Qi swirled around his hand as a massive power gathered within it.

Lin Mu brought down his fist where the two links of the chain met and struck it hard.

~DENG~

The runes flickered haphazardly as the force of the attack spread through them.

~DENG~

But Lin Mu didnʼt stop there and slammed his fist onto it again.

”Donʼt let him continue!” The leader said and controlled the other chains to attack Lin Mu while he was busy with his attacks.

~CLANG~ CLANG ~CLANG~

The Two free Bull Whip Chains slapped across Lin Muʼs back but dealt him no damage.

~Crack~

”Look! His armor is breaking! Just a little more,” The cultivators controlling the chain noticed.

They increased the speed of the attacks, and Lin Mu did the same. Three seconds later, it finally happened.

~KACHA~

~KACHA~

”His armor broke!” the cultivators rejoiced, but their joy was short lived.

~SHATTER~

The chain Lin Mu was attacking broke apart as well, and the runes scattered into the air.

~COUGH~ COUGH ~COUGH~

The cultivators controlling it felt the impact, and some of the weaker ones directly coughed out blood. Rage could be seen on their faces as they continued to attack Lin Mu.

~shua~

Taking opportunity of the fact that Lin Mu was a bit vulnerable after breaking one of the chains, the cultivators quickly wrapped one of the free Bull Whip Chains around Lin Muʼs body.

Lin Mu was like a Rabbit caught by a boa and was tightly coiled. But to this Lin Mu had a surprising response. He simply stopped flying and let gravity do the work.

~CLANG~

As a surprise to the cultivators controlling the Bull Whip chain, the weight on the chain multiplied all of a sudden.

”What is happening? Is he pulling it down?” The leader was confused.

But what was even more surprising was the fact that they couldnʼt feel any spirit Qi being used or a Qi skill being executed.

”What kind of an ability is this?” The cultivators were confused.

~CREAK~

The chain creaked under the sheer weight of Lin Mu and was forcibly bent downwards.

”Hold it!” The leader said as he gestured.

~WEENG~

But that was of no use, as a gap was created between the links of the chain. That was all Lin Mu needed and he simply punched out.

”Boulder Collapsing Fist: First Form – Impact!”

~BOOM~

A heavy force struck the chain, forcing it to unravel. It was like a coiled spring being released and whipped back, hitting the other free chain in the process as well.

Blink!

Lin Mu disappeared at that moment and grasped onto another chain before hammering it with his fists, shattering it apart.

~KACHA~

Not giving the cultivators any time to rest, Lin Mu did the same with the other chain too, while the cultivators struggled to control the formation under the strong attacks and the backslash they were suffering.

~KACHA~

With the last chain shattered, Lin Mu was no longer being stopped.

~cough~ cough~

The cultivators spat out more blood as their faces turned pale.

”Where did he go?” One of them noticed that Lin Mu had disappeared right in front of them.

~Bam~

His question was answered with a blow to the back, which sent him flying while several of his bones broke in the process.

~Crack~ Crack~ Crack~

”Now that the chain is gone… letʼs talk…” Lin Mu stated in a cold tone.
