Chapter 447: Getting Past The Blockade (1/2)
Lin Wu approached one of the checkpoints where the cultivators were standing around. There were no other people at this checkpoint, unlike the other ones due to this being a rarely used route.
”HALT!” The cultivator at the front shouted.
”Who are you? State your identity.” They asked while their spirit sense spread towards Lin Mu.
Lin Mu could tell that one of these cultivators was at the core condensation realm and that was the one who was using his spirit sense.
”Greeting, I am Wu Lian a wandering cultivator.” Lin Mu said giving a fake name.
The core condensation realm cultivator sensed his cultivation base and a serious expression appeared on his face.
”He's at the peak stage of the core condensation realm,” He whispered to his companions.
They too showed similar expressions and became even more alert.
”What is your business here?” They asked.
”My business? Oh, it is just…” Lin Mu said and started chanting.
A second later the eyes of all the cultivators went dull, and they entered a daze. There were ten cultivators here but all of them had been affected at the same time. Lin Mu had used nothing but the severing heart sutra.
He had not seen its effects after he reached the peak stage of the core condensation realm and thus had expected it to be much stronger than before. And that was exactly what happened here.
'Go ahead, little shrubby.' Lin Mu said through his link.
~Zoom~
In the next moment, a blur passed by them, but they did not notice it. Lin Mu glanced and saw that Little Shrubby had already gone far enough and stopped chanting the severing heart sutra.
”… I'm here to visit the city and buy some things. I need to get spirit tools and also sell some of the resources that I do not need anymore.” Lin Mu continued.
”Huh?” The cultivators felt a bit strange for a moment and looked around.
”Is there a problem?” Lin Mu asked with a friendly smile.
”No… nothing. So what did you say again?” The core condensation realm cultivators asked.
”Oh, I said I was visiting the capital city to buy and sell things.” Lin Mu repeated.
”Hmm… wait a little bit.” The cultivator replied before turning to his companions.
”Check and see if he matched anyone wanted or blacklisted.” He said.
”Yes, senior.” The others replied and looked through some information that was stored in a jade slip.
It took them a minute before they spoke again.
”Everything seems normal, senior,” they replied.
