Walker Of The Worlds Chapter 1457 High Profile Teleportation

Chapter 1457 High Profile Teleportation

Immortal Juo was as imposing as ever and didn't seem to care that many people were gawking at him.
Though the people quickly composed themselves, knowing that it would not be good for them. The man in front of them was the General of the Huiqing Empire, one of the top experts, The Steel Horned General Niu Juo!
Most of them wouldn't even get to see an expert like this in their lifetime, even with how privileged they were.
"It really is the Steel Horned General!"
"No wonder they delayed the array activation."
"Yeah, if it's the general, then it makes sense. He does have the authority to delay it."
The people in the crowd couldn't help but gossip.
But in all this, there were a few that had different thoughts. Specifically, the fact that a General of the Huiqing Empire was heading to the Holy Topaz Empire.
Normally, a thing like this would be a little difficult and would be a high profile thing. Using a teleportation array to head to the Holy Topaz Continent could almost be considered casual in this case.
"You're heading to the Holy Topaz Continent?" Lin Mu responded to the large man.
"Indeed." Immortal Juo spoke before gazing at Lin Mu's unmasked face. "You really are at the First Tribulation Stage of the immortal realm."
Immortal Juo was able to recognize Lin Mu simply by the feeling he got from him. Thus, it didn't matter if he wore a mask earlier. And now that the effect of the mask wasn't there either, it was even easier for others to sense his cultivation base.
After all, Lin Mu couldn't wear a mask when he was using the array.
It could be said to be an immigration rule as one needed to show their identity.
This was normal, as no empire would want unknown individuals appearing right in the heart of their cities. If someone had nefarious thoughts, the resulting situation would be hard to deal with and could cause devastating losses.
"Of course, I hadn't lied before." Lin Mu replied to the man before noticing that quite a few people were looking at them.
Immortal Juo noticed this before speaking, "don't mind them. The weak will always look up to the strong. The faster you get used to it, the better."
"That is true... but the same attention can bring some problems that might become bothersome." Lin Mu responded.
"Ahaha, you just need to overcome them with pure strength, then." Immortal Juo chuckled.
Shu Shaoxing who was standing next to Lin Mu, was a quite surprised.
"You know the general?" Shu Shaoxing said in shock.
"We're acquainted." Lin Mu stated.
"He's someone worth watching out for." Immortal Juo added.
~gasp~
Shu Shaoxing took a breath after hearing this. To him, the words of Immortal Juo had a different meaning.
'Brother Mu Lin is backed by the general? Who is he?' Shu Shaoxing wondered.
As Lin Mu was using the array, Shu Shaoxing did expect him to be decently wealthy, but having a backing like this was bigger than that. As for Lin Mu's words about just being an acquittance, Shu Shaoxing took that as a way of downplaying his relations.
'He must be someone going out to train on his own.' Shu Shaoxing thought before another astonishing thought came to him. 'No wait! Perhaps Immortal Juo came especially for him? Is he looking after him!?'
AS soon as he thought this, it was like a dam had been broken. Wild theories formed in Shu Shaoxing's mind, with some going so far as to guess that Lin Mu might be one of the princes of the empire!
Of course, he kept his thoughts to himself, knowing that speaking them out loud might not be good.
For now, he just decided to be as good as possible with Lin Mu.
~SHUA~
"The Transcontinental Teleportation Array will be activating soon. Everyone be ready." The supervision finally announced as the runes started to glow brightly.
Lin Mu could feel a colossal amount of Immortal Qi surging into the array below him. At the same time, he felt a strange link being formed between his body and the array.
'The token is acting as the link?' Lin Mu sensed the token in his pocket trembling. 'No wonder they said not to lose it.'
Lin Mu could see that others were feeling the same as some of them, held the token tightly in their hands, fearing that they might lose it somehow. But in all this, Lin Mu was reminded of another thing.
'Wait... if token is the method to link with the array, what is the Saintess gonna do?' Lin Mu was now concerned.
He closed his eyes for a moment and activated spatial perception, looking around for the Saintess. She had said that she'll take care of the rest, but Lin Mu couldn't help but be worried.
Even if the Saintess could hide her presence normally, it couldn't hide from Lin Mu's spatial perception when there were turbulent spatial fluctuations around here. Lin Mu soon spotted the Saintess, a short distance from him.
She was standing in an empty spot between the crowd. It was strange because despite there being empty space, everyone was ignoring it.
'How's she doing that?' But that wasn't all Lin Mu noticed.
He could also see some new runes forming around her. They were disguised with the Dao of Air as well and couldn't be seen by others. These runes were interacting with the array below them and forming a temporary link for the Saintess!
'Such a rapid speed... that too with a large and complex array like this... the Saintess certainly has some great skills.' Lin Mu understood.
~HUMM~
A few seconds later, the array seemed to have reached its peak, and dense spatial fluctuations covered the entire hall. Everyone's vision went dark and their bodies turned weightless.
Lin Mu was the first one to regain his vision, since his spatial perception was active from the start.
'We're in the teleportation channel...'
Those who didn't have Spatial Perception couldn't 'see' the Teleportation Channel as well as those who did.
Thus, for most of the people, the place they seemed to be in looked blank. Other than the fact that they were moving, they couldn't tell much. Some of them were a bit panicked, but tried to hold it in.
"This feeling never changes." Immortal Juo spoke as he looked at the passing streaks of light.
"The vastness of the void is indeed overwhelming." Lin Mu responded.
He was perhaps the one with the most experience with the void here and thus knew a lot more. Lin Mu could also see a lot more than what others did.
While others might only see a few streaks of light here and there passing, Lin Mu saw the spatial energies themselves.
He could also sense the faint objects that were hidden in the darkness. Most of them were just chunks of rocks, or other debris floating around in the lesser void. But from time to time, Lin Mu could sense some items there too.
'I don't usually encounter other items while teleporting... there are a little too many of them here aren't there?' Lin Mu noticed the number of items increasing.
Of course, compared to the distance they were crossing, the number of items Lin Mu saw were just a handful. But even that was quite a lot when compared to the vastness of the void.
"Those should be the remains of some unfortunate travelers." Xukong spoke at this time.
"Oh? Did they meet accidents?" Lin Mu was surprised, since the array was supposed to be quite safe.
"It's possible. Though since they are located just around the teleportation channel, it is likely that someone had tried to hijack the route and use it themselves. But they failed and thus lost everything." Xukong answered.
This gave another idea to Lin Mu, "doesn't this mean I might be able to find a lot of things, if I search around like in the past?" he asked.
"That might be possible." Xukong responded.
"And it should be safe too, since this is a higher ranked world. With teleportation being common, they won't mind some spatial disturbances." Lin Mu added.
"Indeed. You can try that if you wish too. But your Qi consumption will also be higher due to the spatial fabric being tougher here." Xukong replied.
"Yes, I'll try when I feel like it." Lin Mu nodded his head.
Lin Mu continued to observe the void and the teleportation channel, enhancing his own understanding of both. This was another learning opportunity, so he didn't want to miss it either.
And with this being a long distance teleportation, they spent about five minutes in the teleportation channel. The only time Lin Mu had spent longer in a teleportation channel was when he had arrived in the Rust Sky world. After all, that was an Interworld Teleportation and was quite long.
Finally though, everyone saw a bright light at the end of the channel that turned their vision white.
