Chapter 621 - Grasping Meld

Jing Luo, who had been defending and dodging the attacks from the mist weapons all this time, suddenly found them dispersing.

"Huh? What happened?" Jing Luo said, feeling a bit confused.

He looked around, but the mist was still blocking his field of view. He started to search for the core area of the technique and flew around. But he ended up finding someone completely unexpected.

"Haha! Even if it is not that first elder, at least I got you!" Jing Luo said to himself as he found the third elder hidden in the mist.

The first elder had evidently made a defensive layer around him that hid him and protected him, so that he could recover from his injuries, but now that layer had disappeared along with the mist weapons.

The third elder, who was sitting cross legged on a floating mist cushion, didn't hear anything at first, but then a moment later he could hear the sound of winds tearing.

~SHUA~

By the time he reacted, it was too late.

~SPLAT~

A spear now embedded into his skull. It went through his right eye and came out through the back of the skull, easily shattering the bone. Blood and brains spilled out from the back and his mouth as his neck slogged to the left.

Jing Luo quickly approached the man with the dagger in his hand. The dead man's body slightly glowed and his Nascent Soul was just about to leave it when Jing Luo stabbed the dagger into it.

"AAA!!!!!" The Nascent Soul screamed in unwillingness.

The third elder could not understand how this all happened. One moment he was calmly recovering in a safe space the first elder had made and now in the next moment, he was dead.

Had he not been off guard, Jing Luo might not have been able to kill the man so easily. He had after all, managed to defend against multiple high grade spirit weapons at once when he had been attacked by Jing Luo.

"Hmm… now where is that Spatial storage treasure…" Jing Luo said as he searched the man's body.

The thing Jing Luo was after was the shawl that the third elder had used. Its defenses were far too stronger than they should have been, and Jing Luo felt suspicious about it. After taking out the spatial storage treasurer of the third elder, which was a shoulder band. Jing Luo put his brand on it and checked it.

"I KNEW IT!" Jing Luo said, as his eye turned bloodshot.

He pulled out the Shawl from the spatial storage treasure and looked at it. His spirit sense probed it and checked the formations on it, along with the building materials.

"Ripple mist sect… I swear the Jing clan will have its revenge!" Jing Luo said out loud.

Jing Luo then sensed something in the distance and furrowed his brows.

"Spatial fluctuations? What's Lin Mu doing?" Jing Luo questioned.

***

Back in the mist fortress, Lin Mu had split it apart using meld.

His hands trembled as Lin Mu gritted his teeth.

"This is much harder than I thought!" Lin Mu said with difficulty.

He was currently trying to control the two chunks of space that he had separated using meld but was finding it to be extremely difficult. He wanted to find the first elder who was hidden there, but to do that he would need to split it once more.

Not only that, but Lin Mu also realized that his spirit Qi consumption right now was through the roof. Using meld on such a large area was consuming it like a camel in an oasis. Lin Mu tried to estimate his consumption and saw that despite his increased cultivation base, controlling an area as big as this used up one percent of his entire spirit Qi stores every second!

It had been twenty seconds since he used Meld and he had already used up about one third of his spirit Qi stores, inducing the previous consumption during the battle. Normally it should not have been this high as his body would also absorb spirit Qi passively from the air.

But due to the effect of the Weapon mist domain, Lin Mu could not absorb spirit Qi from the air. If he was still able to passively absorb spirit Qi, the consumption of spirit Qi might have been sufficiently offset by that.

"You need to focus! Sense the fine details of the spatial fabric, and find its flaws. There are always flaws in the spatial fabric. Once you grasp them, you will know where to tear it from." Xukong spoke in Lin Mu's mind.

~huu~

Lin Mu took a deep breath and closed his eyes. The next moment he opened his eyes, he started to chant the severing heart sutra and used his spatial perception at the full potential.

~humm~

The scene in front of him turned as dark as the night and it was as if an endless sheet made out of cloth had been spread in front of him. The sheet had millions upon millions of threads in it that interwove.

Lin Mu could see that Meld had currently ripped the sheet from one part and had spread it apart. While in the real world it looked like the cut was clean, here Lin Mu could see that I was not like this.

Instead of being fully cleaved into two, the cut was more like someone had stabbed a knife in the middle of a napkin and created a hole. The then edges of the napkin were pulled apart to broaden the cut.

This was exactly what Lin Mu had done right now. Having learned this, Lin Mu quickly grasped the proper method. He lessened his control over meld and started to shrink the area that he controlled.

~shua~

The mist at the edges started to flow once again and was no longer frozen. Lin Mu continued to shrink the area till it was abouttwenty meters wide and he was sure that the First elder was contained in it.
