Walker Of The Worlds

1388 A Lost Ship



A few days had passed since Lin Mu had left the Deep Sapphire Island. He had been flying non stop for the most part, only pausing to check if he was going in the right direction.

Thankfully with the items that Lanbao and Elder Niji had given him, it was a relatively simple task. Not to mention, the Huiqing Continent was closest to the island anyways.

“With little Shrubby this would have been a lot more easier…” Lin Mu missed his companion.

He had been doing regular checks on the ‘seed’ that Little Shrubby had turned into and knew that it seemed to be on the way to recovery. Senior Xukong had the same opinion too, with him estimating that Little Shrubby might directly breakthrough when he awakens.

“I’ll look for the best wood elemental resources I can for him to awaken.” Lin Mu decided.

In the Deep Sapphire Island’s storage, there weren’t as many wood elemental resources. Nearly 90% of them were of the water element with just a handful of wood elemental immortal herbs.

He would have already given them to little Shrubby if not for that fact that they were immortal herbs and could not be utilized by him yet. It was a strange situation where he had better quality stuff but it was simply not compatible.

‘Huiqing Continent should certainly have them though.’ Lin Mu thought to himself.

He kept on flying mindlessly until his attention was pulled by a small brown object in the distance.

“Huh? What’s that?” Lin Mu narrowed his eyes as he barely spotted something in the distance.

A few seconds later, he saw the brown object rise up again in the distance.

“A ship? That’s strange… Kunzi said no ships sail in this route since its filled with beasts.” Lin Mu muttered to himself.

He hovered and watched the ship for a minute before realizing that it seemed to be coming closer. The closer it got, the more Lin Mu realized it wasn’t just any ship, it was a large cargo ship!

“Did they get lost or something?” Lin Mu furrowed his brows and decided to approach it carefully.

He half activated fade, just in case he had to dodge some really strong attack. Fade could be said to be his strongest defensive skill in a way as it literally sent him into a parallel dimension.

It was the best way to avoid any kind of attack. Even with the newly obtained Immortal Strengthening Scripture Lin Mu would only be able to defend against attacks up to a certain level.

He didn’t know what kind of a ship this was and what level of offense it could muster. There was always a chance they might take him as a threat and bombard him or something.

The only reason Lin Mu didn’t use fade as a major defensive skill was due to the fact that it had a longer activation time. It would take thirty seconds to activate it. In a battle, he would have to buy a lot of safety to use it.

Thus with fade ready, Lin Mu appearance the ship.

Soon the cracked and broken surface of the ship came in his sight. There seemed to be bite marks scattered over the surface of the ship and a few chunks of meat were also stuck to it.

“They’ve definitely gone through a battle, that’s for sure.” Lin Mu now understood that they might have been forced here.

~GUSH~

A minute later though, the ship seemed to change direction and was now coming towards him.

“Seems like they’ve spotted you.” Xukong spoke.

“Mmhmm… and so far they haven’t attacked me so that’s good.” Lin Mu said while keeping his immortal sense extended.

He could faintly sense the aquatic beasts in the water as well. They were further than the range of his immortal sense, but Lin Mu could simply feel their auras. Having the bloodline of a beast made him more sensitive to other such auras too.

‘Let’s just take some precaution just in case…’ Lin Mu took out the scale that Lanbao had given him.

He held it in his hand for a few second and soon felt the auras starting to disappear.

“Hmmm… That should be enough.” Lin Mu quickly stored away the scale, preparing to meet the people on the ship.

~Hong~

A translucent dome around the ship became visible, showing that it was indeed under protection at all times.

‘If the managed to damage the surface this much, they probably managed to break their defenses. These are probably the bare minimum left or what they have managed to recover.’ Lin Mu guessed.

~WHOOSH~WHOOSH~

But then Lin Mu saw two people flying up from the ship and coming to stand a hundred meters from him. It was two men that were in the Immortal realm.

The first man seemed to be in the third tribulation stage of the immortal realm, while the second one was hard for Lin Mu to estimate. His immortal qi waves were suppressed making Lin Mu think that the man had some kind of a immortal tool on him.

“Who are you and what are you doing here in the middle of the ocean?” The first man asked.

“I’m just a traveler and got lost due to an accident.” Lin Mu replied vaguely.

“What kind of an accident? Did you ship sink?” they asked.

“No… A teleportation accident.” Lin Mu replied.

“What was your intended destination?” they questioned next.

“Huiqing continent.” Lin Mu answered.

“Hmm… same as us then.” They whispered to each other for a bit before turning to Lin Mu. “By any chance do you happen to have a navigational tool? Our’s broke during a beast swarm.”

“We’ll give you a free ride to Huiqing Continent if you give us one.”

“I do have one.” Lin Mu took out one of the many navigational compasses he had taken from the tribe.

“Perfect!” The two men’s eyes lit up. “With the compass we’ll be able to travel at full speed again and get out of this area.”
