1732 Spatial Plane Closings



"Ugh… This is chaotic." Lin Mu muttered as he opened his eyes.

To his Spatial perception, it was as if hundreds of curtains were falling all at once!

Lin Mu almost felt a headache filling his head, before he forcefully limited his control over the Spatial Perception.

'What is happening…' Lin Mu wondered as he held his head.

Only after a few minutes did he feel better and tried to reason with his situation. It was now that he realized that it was a change that was beyond his control happening all around him, or rather more accurately the Space around the plane.

'A Spatial Plane is disappearing… what in the…' Lin Mu was surprised.

He focused his attention on it, this time making sure that he didn't lose any extra attention. Without the other characteristic distracting him, Lin Mu could clearly tell that there were insignificant changes happening all round him.

More accurately though, it was the fact that a Spatial Plane seem to be 'shrinking'.

"Wait a second… how can it be shrinking??" Lin Mu was confused.

He spent a few minutes watching it before he realized that there was more to it than he had originally thought.

Lin Mu watched it for a few more minutes before realizing that the space was indeed 'shrinking'. It was a phenomenon that didn't happen usually, making Lin Mu rather confused about it in the first place.

'The Spatial Planes are programmed in such a way that they will disappear once all the participants within it have finished their round.' Xukong explained this time around.

He had been watching everything for a while now. He was mostly focused on his own cultivation thought, letting Lin Mu take the lead as much as he wanted.

Xukong's trust in Lin Mu had risen quite a bit and he didn't interfere unless it was absolutely needed. For the most part, he had been watching as Lin Mu's path in the tournament. To the spider, it didn't matter how Lin Mu really won. All it mattered to him was that Lin Mu was fine and didn't lose right away

Lin Mu instantly perked up after hearing Senior Xukong feeling like there was more to it. He thought further about what Senior Xukong had said and realized that what he was taking about was none other that the Life Cycle of the Spatial Plane.

'How did I not sense this earlier?" Lin Mu questioned himself. ' Wait… the Spatial disturbance were too blurry to tell at the start.' Lin Mu said to himself.

The longer he spend on this the better he realized the situation that he was in.

And this was something that was crucial for him in the first place.

Lin Mu focused on it and realized that the Spatial Plane could actually be seen by him. His spatial perception was extended to the maximum, almost straining his eyes.

"Ugh… this is hard." Lin Mu cursed as he used the Spatial Perception at his maximum power.

To him the Space felt like it was melting ice. It was hard to see and he needed to spend a lot of energy to 'see' how the reality was.

But once he did, he realized that the Spatial Plane was none other than the one of the planes he had he seen at the very start.

'If this is hear then it means… the rest are here too.' Lin Mu thought to himself.

He thought over why a Spatial plane would be collapsing like this and realized the most obvious reason. The more Lin Mu observed it, the better he realized what was truly happening.

'How is a Spatial Plane collapsing?' Lin Wu questioned himself.

A couple of minutes later he realized what might be the most likely possibility.

"It can't be, can I?" Lin Mu questioned himself. 'The Spatial planes closing only means that the Arrays sustaining them are being shut down. But this is not something that would happen normally.

For it to happen now only means that the arrays set up by the Formation masters of the Temple are being changed. Then this means that the entire Spatial Plane was being actively changed as Lin Mu watched it.

At the end Lin Mu reckoned that the reasoning for this would only one thing.

"A Spatial Plane is closing, which means that there is no one left inside it." Lin Mu muttered to himself.

Extrapolating from this, Lin Mu reckoned the fact that the Spatial plane closing was unknown to others.

'Without Spatial Perception that is strong enough, they won't even be able to sense that there is a change in the Space around them, not to mention the disappearance of a Spatial Place.' Lin Mu thought. 'But now that is has happened, there is only one reason… the Spatial plane has completed its existence.' Lin Mu thought.

It made sense as that was the only reasonable thing as to why a stable Spatial Plane would disappear.

'If I consider this, then it means that that first Spatial Plane took nearly 3 days or more to be finished. Whoever was inside it was strong enough to eliminate all the opponents in that time. My best bet is the Third prince.' Lin Mu thought.

Whatever the true result might be, there was one thing that had been confirmed from this.

'I can now tell when different rounds are over depending on the Spatial planes. Their closure is something that can be felt by me even now.' Lin Mu thought.

Lin Mu didn't waste this chance either and locked down on the fine changes in the space. After all, he knew that the changes  might not be as clear as they were right now and tried to be as sharp as possible.

An hour passed like this, after which he was sure of the different Spatial fluctuations that could be felt in the first place. At the same time he extrapolated the fact that the first Spatial plane took 3 days to be removed.
