1413 Stealing The Spiral Flake Crystal

Lin Mu was tailing the people of the Saber Battle union unaware that they had more goals than he had thought as he heard a few interesting things.

“Are we going to do it or not?” One of the people of the Saber battle Union questioned.

“Of course we will. Because of the Spiral Flake Crystal’s we weren’t able to allocate enough funds. But we absolutely need to get the information about the Bitter Burrow Root’s cultivation method.” Another person answered.

“Do we have someone on that Cong Clan’s woman?”

“I’ve sent two after them since the start. They’ll inform us in a bit.”

“What about us? Do you want to go after her too?”

p、a,nd a-n、o、ve,l “No, we’ll head back first while the rest will take care of it. We just need to get the Spiral Flake Crystal to the First Captain.”

Upon hearing all this, Lin Mu knew there was certainly something suspicious underway.

“I need to get the Spiral Flake Crystal first…” Lin Mu watched as the the group of Saber Battle Union was split in two.

One group waited here, while the second group with the leader went ahead. This was the group that had the Spiral Flake Crystal with them and Lin Mu followed after them.

With his spatial perception active, Lin Mu could sense the presence of the Spiral Flake Crystal on them. To him it looked like a piece of ice shining in the s.p.a.ce.

Others would not be able to see it if they didn’t have Spatial Perception that had reached Lin Mu’s level. To others, there was nothing existing there. After all, the Spiral Flake Crystal was safely tucked away into the Spatial Storage Treasure.

It was on the body of the man who looked to be the leader of the group. He was also the strongest member among them, being at the Fourth Tribulation Stage of the Immortal Realm.

~huu~

“This’ll be a new experience…” Lin Mu took a deep breath and chanted the Calming Heart Sutra to focus himself.

He sped up and approached the man.

‘There it is…’ Lin Mu could see the Spatial Storage Pouch hanging on the man’s waist.

It was tied firmly and there was no way it could fall. And even if it did by some miracle, it wasn’t as if anyone could check the contents. The Spatial Storage Pouches had special features that would restrict the access to the items inside.

And if someone tried to forcefully open it, they would just end up triggering the self destruction formation and the items inside would be lost to the void.

But these security features were useless against someone like Lin Mu, who didn’t need to tamper with the formation in the first place. He was directly going to pull the Spiral Flake Crystal from the minor void.

With the support of the Calming Heart Sutra Lin Mu’s Spatial Perception worked at full potential and he could make out the Minor Void that was bound to the Spatial Storage Pouch.

‘Mmm… it’s large enough to be accessed from a few meters away. That’s good…’ Lin Mu felt a bit relived.

If he had to steal it directly from the man’s waist, it was just a fight waiting to happen. But if there was no contact in the first place, it would be hard to track anything.

Lin Mu thus circled around the man, until he found a suitable place to access the Minor void from.

The s.p.a.ce inside the Spatial Storage Pouch was about twenty square meters wide and was enough to store quite a lot of things. But it also meant that it was connected to a s.p.a.ce that large.

If someone with Spatial perception saw this seen, they would see that the Minor Void was like a Sphere that was attached to the man carrying the pouch.

The place Lin Mu had chosen to burgle the Minor Void was about ten meters away. While it was not the maximum length at which the minor void could be touched, it was the best option for him.

It couldn’t be too far or he might end up not being able to take the Spiral Flake Crystal and it couldn’t be too close as he might get detected by the Saber Battle Union’s people.

“Here goes nothing…” Lin Mu extended his hand as the ring hummed slightly.

Its power was displayed as the s.p.a.ce in front of Lin Mu started to trembled. Thankfully he was still underground so it could not be seen.

‘Just a bit more…’ Lin Mu exerted more power as the immoral qi within his Dantian started draining.

Thankfully it wasn’t that much as he wasn’t accessing the lesser void, just the minor void.

A few seconds later the spatial fabric parted allowing Lin Mu to make contact with the Minor void!

It felt like his hand was pa.s.sing through different densities of cotton.

~HUALA~

Finally, Lin Mu had full access to the minor void.

‘PERFECT!’ Lin Mu was pleased with the progress.

He let his hand wander inside for a bit and soon found the Spiral Flake Crystal. It was easy to find since it emitted a cold feeling and Lin Mu simply tracked it according to it.

And upon holding it, Lin Mu also felt a chill going down his arm. The Spiral Flake Crystal was ice cold and even Lin Mu’s Golden Body could not resist the chill.

‘It’s almost as if it can pierce through all barriers…’ Lin Mu found it to be unique.

He started to realize why Xukong was insisting that he should obtain this item.

~SHUA~

But Lin Mu didn’t tarry there long, as he quickly sent the Spiral Flake Crystal into his own ring and withdrew his arm.

~HUM~

The spatial Fabric trembled again before starting to close. The ring had already stopped its control, allowing the s.p.a.ce to mend itself. After ensuring that there was no signs of being detected, Lin Mu directly used Fade and entered the parallel world.

~Phew~

“I did it…”
