For the first time, Immortal Taegu got to learn what fear was.
Facing a large army of four legged people that he knew nothing about. Endless repeating waves of them that never stopped and more kept on spawning.
And now another wave of Dao Treading realm experts that had great strength. It all left him at a loss, especially seeing the technique they were using.
"What in the name of heavens is this?" Immortal Taegu could only mutter this much.
In front of his eyes, the group of exiled convicts were all knocked away like bowling pins.
The spinning Haima Tribe members kept on demolishing their group without even giving them a chance to resist.
In less than a minute, the entire group had been wiped out.
Some of them tried to use their Dao Embryos and Dao skills, but it had been far too late to do anything. The speed of the Haima tribe was not something that could be compared to the average cultivator after all.
"I can't stay here… I need to leave!" Immortal Taegu decided.
Even if he was an immortal, going against a coordinated attack from an army of Dao Treading realm experts wasn't something he could do. Not to mention, there was still some lingering fear in his heart.
'There's no way this is all there is. There are certainly more… if an army of immortals pops up, I won't even be able to run.' Immortal Taegu was now sure all this was a huge trap.
While running away, his mind went to the large banner that was floating above the mountain. The Banner literally told one to come get someone named Huyun Chuan.
"FUCK! I've been a fool, that was literally calling for a trap." Immortal Taegu cursed himself.
He had been too blinded by fortune to have taken it seriously. And now, he was in a grave situation.
~SHING~SHING~SHING~
But just as he was a kilometer away from the battlefield, the sound of several swords flying could be heard.
"Dammit!" Taegu dodged as soon as he heard, knowing that someone was using spirit swords.
This only confirmed his conjecture that this was a trap.
"If they can have spirit tools in the Land of Exile, they are not simple at all…" Immortal Taegu said to himself.
"Why not take a break and come with me peacefully?" Suddenly a voice rang out in Taegu's ears.
"Who?!" He turned back, but saw nobody there.
But then he felt something with his spirit sense.
"Shit!"
Immortal Taegu turned around once more, finding a new person within the scope of his perception.
It was a young man that looked to be in his early twenties.
But this was merely his appearance, Taegu could tell that this was no less than deceptive as the spirit Qi fluctuations placed him at the Immortal Ascension realm. At the same time though, he felt like his perception was being clouded.
'Is he at the Immortal Ascension realm or not?' Immortal Taegu wondered.
This was something that everyone would have to experience when they saw Lin Mu. His cultivation wasn't focused on one path and took both Body and Qi cultivation as the principals.
It was unknown what the end result of this all would be. But so far, Lin Mu was satisfied with his growth and decided that this was the route he wanted to go forth with.
~SHA~SHA~SHA~
The tens of spirit weapons that were blocking Immortal Taegu's path spoke a different tone though.
"There is no other way out is there?" Immortal Taegu asked.
"That is up to you. Either come peacefully, or struggle while I test something out." Lin Mu answered honestly.
Immortal Taegu gazed at Lin Mu, pondering on his choices and weighing the benefits.
~HUALA~
But while he as thinking about this all, he felt a new wave of spirit Qi.
He then saw a sphere rising form Lin Mu's body. The sphere expanded greatly before stopping at the ten meter mark.
'What in the… a ten meter wide Dao Shell?' Taegu was stunned.
His shock was only the start as in the next moment he witnessed a Dao Embryo rising from the Dao Shell. The Dao embryo was unique in shape and continued to created sound.
~LUB~DUB~LUB~DUB~
The True Earth Heart Beast non stop, creating an imperceptible pressure.
~DENG~
Just as Immortal Taegu tried to analyze it, he felt like his body was turning heavy.
"Wait a second… Please—" Immortal Taegu wanted to say something, but then felt a crushing pressure being exerted on his body.
~THUD~
His feet directly sank into the ground, going down about 6 inches before stopping. While this result was quite less than the past performance of Lin Mu, it was still more than enough to overwhelm a new immortal who had just reached the First Tribulation stage of the Immortal realm.
"No more! No more! I yield! I yield!" Immortal Taegu shouted immediately.
His instincts screamed at him once more, advising him that this was a losing battle. If he went against the this any more, he would be on the losing and dying end.
Thus, to avoid that, Taegu took the humiliating but life saving option.
It could be seen, he was a lot more intelligent than the others who had fought with Lin Mu so far.
"Oh? That was fast…" Lin Mu had not expected this either.
~HUA~
Not wanting to give up his guard, Lin Mu decided to meet the man first hand.
"I am Immortal Taegu, I am—" The moment Taegu saw Lin Mu, he decided to take the formal route.
But before he could say much, his hands were grabbed by Lin Mu.
"Oh? This isn't that different from a Dao Treading realm expert." Lin Mu's voice could be heard.
His hands held Taegu's hands while his spirit sense observed everything within the man's body.
This time though, he saw something new.
There wasn't just spirit Qi within Taegu's body, but also Immortal Qi!
