Lin Mu had his immortal sense spread and was searching for any other cultivators nearby.


    Other than the first one he had gotten rid of, he could tell there were at least four more nearby. Though they were scattered and were in a better condition than the first man.


    ''They should be from an earlier batch of people and have recovered since then.'' Lin Mu thought to himself.


    "I see someone," Lu Xu was the first to respond.


    "I do too." Ming Aolian replied.


    Lin Mu sensed their position and checked the cultivators they were gonna face.


    "Go forth." Lin Mu could tell that they would have no issues.


    ~SHUA~ SHUA~


    Lu Xu and Ming Aolian began their assault.


    Lu Xu''s sword flew, while Ming Aolian called out her wolf. The two quickly ambushed the unsuspecting cultivators.


    After all, the others didn''t have the same range of Immortal sense that Lin Mu did. By the time they sensed them, their attacks had already gotten close.


    ''That takes care of it. I should also get to work.'' Lin Mu thought to himself as he shed out with Afternoon Pine.


    ~SHING~


    The sh sent out a Sword Light that ripped through the ground and traveled for nearly five hundred meters before hitting a cultivator that was trying to hide.


    ~shua~


    The immortal couldn''t even let out a cry as his body turned into a sh of light and was teleported back out.


    "Seems like there will be quite a few that will try to hide. It is a valid tactic after all…" Lin Mu wasn''t against something like this either, but for him, they also served as the perfect targets.


    Lin Mu knew that these people trying to hide would basically be dying the stage. Which worked in his favor, and he liked it too. But he also needed to know just how long to dy.


    After all, Lin Mu didn''t know exactly when the other people would have finished their rounds.


    ''That''ll be one of the things I need to figure out. Themunications are stopped between here and the outside world after all.'' Lin Mu thought to himself.


    Though it wasn''t like Lin Mu didn''t have an estimate of it either. He knew that it would take at least a month before this stage would end at the maximum. The ce wasn''t that small after all, even even if the contestants hid for the most part, they would eventually have to start fighting.


    ''Though there should be a few Spatial nes that should end up finishing early.'' Lin Mu thought to himself.


    These nes were none other than the Spatial nes with the Top rankers.


    Lin Mu was sure that the Spatial nes with Feng Baxing and Yao Changying would end up finishing the fights very early. He wouldn''t be surprised if it happened in a day or two either.


    With that in mind, he also continued his hunt for contestants. <novelsnext></novelsnext>


    ~SHING~ SHING~


    Two more shes were sent out, removing two contestants from the tournament.


    Qian Wen and Ming Dandan were also doing well, having defeated a contestant each.


    And just like this, a day passed as Lin Mu and hispanions finished off whoever they countered. It was now that Lin Mu contacted the others.


    "We will need to find a ce to rest and hide if we are to drag this battle out." Lin Mu informed the others.This is property ? N?velDrama.Org.


    "I saw a ce that could work for us." Ming Dandan informed.


    "Where is it?" Lin Mu asked.


    "About a two-kilometer distance from where I am." Ming Dandan said then realized how vague it was. "Ummm… I can''t tell the direction." She added.


    Being a Spatial ne, no one knew what direction they were walking in as there was nothing like north, east, west and south in the first ce. There was no sun either, and only a nk blue sky without any clouds could be seen.


    This made it as vague as possible, forcing the contestants to continually seek out the others to fight.


    At the same time, the Spatial ne was rather in, having little topographical changes. There were no forests, rivers orkes. All one could see was barrennd, with a few hills spread here and there.


    "Don''t worry, we should be able to seek it out." Lin Mu said through themunication jade slip. "I''ll try to look for it. Do you remember what it looked like?" he asked.


    "Yes, it is in the middle of two hills that have a crack going near their base." Ming Dandan replied.


    "Hmm… that should be easy enough to find." Lin Mu said as he first looked around physically.


    He already knew where Ming Dandan was and thus it was easy for him to look for the hills.


    ''A total of eight hills… only four of them are close to each other though. So it''s either of those.'' Lin Mu quickly found the possible ones. "Alright, I''ll head there first then inform you all. Continue doing what you are right now." He informed before making his way to the hills.


    The first pair of hills that he had spotted didn''t have the crack though and looked to be rather in. Thus he ended up going to the second hill pair which was indeed the one he was seeking out.


    "This should work well enough." Lin Mu said after looking at the crack which spread from the base of the hills to the center.


    It was barely two meters wide and was narrow than a couple of inches on most parts.


    Lin Mu used his Immortal sense and took a survey of the area, finding that the crack actually went rather deep. The strangest thing was that he could tell the crack was not natural.


    ''Did the formation masters intentionally let the crack be formed?'' Lin Mu wondered as he could sense traces of formations here too.


    He reckoned they could easily make use of this as a hiding ce for the time being.


    "Guess the temple also wants us to make use of our terrain for the best results." Lin Mu muttered.
