Chapter 1730 A Hiding Place To Drag The Tournament

Lin Mu had his immortal sense spread and was searching for any other cultivators nearby.

Other than the first one he had gotten rid of, he could tell there were at least four more nearby. Though they were scattered and were in a better condition than the first man.

ʼThey should be from an earlier batch of people and have recovered since then.ʼ Lin Mu thought to himself.

”I see someone,” Lu Xu was the first to respond.

”I do too.” Ming Aolian replied.

Lin Mu sensed their position and checked the cultivators they were gonna face.

”Go forth.” Lin Mu could tell that they would have no issues.

~SHUA~ SHUA~

Lu Xu and Ming Aolian began their assault.

Lu Xuʼs sword flew, while Ming Aolian called out her wolf. The two quickly ambushed the unsuspecting cultivators.

After all, the others didnʼt have the same range of Immortal sense that Lin Mu did. By the time they sensed them, their attacks had already gotten close.

ʼThat takes care of it. I should also get to work.ʼ Lin Mu thought to himself as he slashed out with Afternoon Pine.

~SHING~

The slash sent out a Sword Light that ripped through the ground and traveled for nearly five hundred meters before hitting a cultivator that was trying to hide.

~shua~

The immortal couldnʼt even let out a cry as his body turned into a flash of light and was teleported back out.

”Seems like there will be quite a few that will try to hide. It is a valid tactic after all…” Lin Mu wasnʼt against something like this either, but for him, they also served as the perfect targets.

Lin Mu knew that these people trying to hide would basically be delaying the stage. Which worked in his favor, and he liked it too. But he also needed to know just how long to delay.

After all, Lin Mu didnʼt know exactly when the other people would have finished their rounds.

ʼThatʼll be one of the things I need to figure out. The communications are stopped between here and the outside world after all.ʼ Lin Mu thought to himself.

Though it wasnʼt like Lin Mu didnʼt have an estimate of it either. He knew that it would take at least a month before this stage would end at the maximum. The place wasnʼt that small after all, even even if the contestants hid for the most part, they would eventually have to start fighting.

ʼThough there should be a few Spatial planes that should end up finishing early.ʼ Lin Mu thought to himself.

These planes were none other than the Spatial Planes with the Top rankers.

Lin Mu was sure that the Spatial Planes with Feng Baxing and Yao Changying would end up finishing the fights very early. He wouldnʼt be surprised if it happened in a day or two either.

With that in mind, he also continued his hunt for contestants.

~SHING~ SHING~

Two more slashes were sent out, removing two contestants from the tournament.

Qian Wen and Ming Dandan were also doing well, having defeated a contestant each.

And just like this, a day passed as Lin Mu and his companions finished off whoever they countered. It was now that Lin Mu contacted the others.

”We will need to find a place to rest and hide if we are to drag this battle out.” Lin Mu informed the others.

”I saw a place that could work for us.” Ming Dandan informed.

”Where is it?” Lin Mu asked.

”About a two-kilometer distance from where I am.” Ming Dandan said then realized how vague it was. ”Ummm… I canʼt tell the direction.” She added.

Being a Spatial plane, no one knew what direction they were walking in as there was nothing like north, east, west and south in the first place. There was no sun either, and only a blank blue sky without any clouds could be seen.

This made it as vague as possible, forcing the contestants to continually seek out the others to fight.

At the same time, the Spatial Plane was rather plain, having little topographical changes. There were no forests, rivers or lakes. All one could see was barren land, with a few hills spread here and there.

”Donʼt worry, we should be able to seek it out.” Lin Mu said through the communication jade slip. ”Iʼll try to look for it. Do you remember what it looked like?” he asked.

”Yes, it is in the middle of two hills that have a crack going near their base.” Ming Dandan replied.

”Hmm… that should be easy enough to find.” Lin Mu said as he first looked around physically.

He already knew where Ming Dandan was and thus it was easy for him to look for the hills.

ʼA total of eight hills… only four of them are close to each other though. So itʼs either of those.ʼ Lin Mu quickly found the possible ones. ”Alright, Iʼll head there first then inform you all. Continue doing what you are right now.” He informed before making his way to the hills.

The first pair of hills that he had spotted didnʼt have the crack though and looked to be rather plain. Thus he ended up going to the second hill pair which was indeed the one he was seeking out.

”This should work well enough.” Lin Mu said after looking at the crack which spread from the base of the hills to the center.

It was barely two meters wide and was narrow than a couple of inches on most parts.

Lin Mu used his Immortal sense and took a survey of the area, finding that the crack actually went rather deep. The strangest thing was that he could tell the crack was not natural.

ʼDid the formation masters intentionally let the crack be formed?ʼ Lin Mu wondered as he could sense traces of formations here too.

He reckoned they could easily make use of this as a hiding place for the time being.

”Guess the temple also wants us to make use of our terrain for the best results.” Lin Mu muttered.
