Walker Of The Worlds Chapter 1734 Fifteen Days Pass

Chapter 1734 Fifteen Days Pass

"I'd like to bet on a few unlisted contestants." Luo Liqin said to the clerk.
"Go ahead." The clerk didn't care who the people bet on.
He didn't care that Luo Liqin was better on someone that looked to be random either. To him, there were always people that liked to try their luck, and would thus bet on people that were not that popular or simply unknown.
"How much do you wanna bet?" The clerk asked after seeing the choices that Luo Liqin had picked out.
He couldn't recognize any of the names, considering them to just be some average cultivators.
"About one thousand six hundred High Grade Immortal crystals." Luo Liqin said.
As soon as the clerk heard it, a stunned expression appeared on his face.
"Do you mean one thousand six hundred Mid Grade Immortal crystals?" he wondered if Luo Liqin had misspoken.
"Nope." Luo Liqin said before taking out a storage pouch.
~thud~
Placing it on the desk, the formation automatically calculated the number showing it on the screen.
"It really is that much…" The clerk now wondered who this person was.
While there had been several others that had placed bets bigger than this, they weren't on some random people.
"Are you sure of this? You will lose everything if they don't win." The clerk stated.
"I'm sure." Luo Liqin was firm.
"Alright." Since Luo Liqin had asked for this, the clerk couldn't say much and confirmed the bet.
~shua~
Entering a few runes, he recorded the bet and took the Immortal stones. Once that was done, he gave Luo Liqin a square jade piece.
"That'll serve as a receipt." The clerk said. "If you win, you can use that to claim the winnings." He replied.
"Very well." Having done that Luo Liqin quickly left, wanting to observe the matches.
'There sure are some random betters now…' The clerk thought to himself before moving on to the next person having no idea that this would be one of the best bets so far.
The time passed rather quickly as Lin Mu and his companions waited out the competition.
'This is a lot more relaxing than I thought…' Lin Mu thought to himself.
He was simply focused on comprehending the Space and was using the Spiral Flake Crystal. It allowed him to not only improve but also know when another Spatial Plane would be closing.
And that happened on the fifth day.
~SHUA~
Lin Mu was interrupted by the shaking of space. Only he could sense it, but this time he was able to overcome the uncomfortable sensation quickly. He simply focused on the Space itself, allowing him to 'see' the second Spatial Plane collapsing.
'Two planes gone, twenty seven to go…' Lin Mu noted.
After the momentary interruption, Lin Mu went back to comprehending the space.
But the very next day, he felt it again.
"Looks like it'll start to happen more often now." Lin Mu reckoned as the third Spatial Plane disappeared.
Six days had passed now and the first week would come to an end soon.
Lin Mu's companions were also relatively calm, and could even relax a bit. They had split up the duties and would let two go out while two waited in the hidden crack along with Lin Mu.
This also prevented them from gathering too much attention, as a large group would be too eye catching.
Besides, they had seen that there were already people forming alliances. But these alliances were of just two people. After all, the winners would be two and it wouldn't make sense to add any more to their group.
Ming Dandan was the first one who had noticed this and had informed Lin Mu about it. Thus he had given the suggestion that they should do the same, only letting two people wander nearby.
The pairings were also relatively simple, with the Ming sisters in one team while Lu Xu and Qian Wen were in the other. Lin Mu though was alone as he simply didn't go out unless needed.
His duty was to observe the space, and only interfere if his companions faced people that were stronger than them.
The making of a team had made it easier for them too though, as they had an easier time fighting in a duo than alone.
Another day passed and another Spatial Plane closed, taking the count to three.
On the eighth day though, Lin Mu felt the Spatial fluctuations twice!
"Two Spatial Planes? That's five down now." Lin Mu reckoned it will only increase from now.
'Though the opposite might also happen and things might slow down as the overall number of contestants decrease.' Lin Mu thought. 'Considering that five Spatial Planes have closed, it should be the top five rankers most likely.' He guessed.
The pace of spatial planes closing certainly increased as Lin Mu could now feel at least one Spatial Plane closing every day. By the fifteenth day, half of the Spatial Planes had already closed up.
"Just fourteen more to go… we will need to start acting when there's last few left." Lin Mu muttered to himself before closing his eyes.
The Spiral Flake Crystal was still in his hand and he had been improving steadily with it.
His 'search' inside the Spiral Flake crystal was also getting better. He had come across the unknown object several times now but had still been unable to truly 'hold' it. But the number of times he was encountering it was increasing as well.
Lin Mu knew he was close to obtaining it.
He hoped that when he did, he would be able to overcome his limitation and improve his understanding of the Space.
But the very next day, Lin Mu had to halt his work as he was called urgently.
"Brother Mu Lin, there's trouble!" Ming Dandan's anxious voice could be heard.
Lin Mu opened his eyes as his immortal sense immediately spread around.
"What is it?" he questioned holding the Jade Slip.
"Sister Aolian is locked in a tough fight! The opponent is two Fourth Tribulation stage immortals!"
