Chapter 875: A Runaway Sword

"Phew~ I didn't even realize I had gathered so much trash in there." Lin Mu said as he looked at the various piles of items.

"Well, the s.p.a.ce within the ring is… immeasurable, so it doesn't even matter if you remove these things." Xukong replied.

Lin Mu had decided to sort through all the items that there were in his ring. He had not done so in a while and the things had become a bit messy. While he could access them with just a thought and they would appear, there were still things in there that Lin Mu had no idea or memory of.

He had stored a lot of things in pa.s.sing without thinking much and thus didn't know what they were. Not to mention there were even a few resources and treasure that he had not checked properly and didn't know what they were.

Like before, Lin Mu had separated them out into piles of useful and useless things. The useless things were mostly composed of things like, literal trash and sc.r.a.ps along with a lot of soil, rocks and other materials.

The useful things were in a single pile and were then divided into several, depending on their purpose. Some were things that could be used for cultivation, like pills and spirit stones, that were sorted in one pile.

Then there were other things like metals, ores, crystals, spirit herbs and more things that were also useful for cultivation, but not directly. They were divided into other piles of their own.

By the time Lin Mu was done, he had ended up with over fifteen different piles of things.  The spirit apple tree couldn't even been seen now, due to being hidden behind a couple of item piles.

"Seems like we are done." Lin Mu said as he looked around.

"Hmm… no wait, we got a couple more things." Xukong suddenly spoke.

"Oh? I thought we have everything here." Lin Mu replied.

"Well, the things that were together are here, but there are a few things that move around on their own in the ring too." Xukong reminded.

Upon hearing this, it struck Lin Mu.

He closed his eyes and sensed the items in the ring before brining out the first one.

~DENG~

In the next second, a large great sword appeared in front of him and fell to the ground. The stand that it was originally on was broken, and now there was nothing to hold it.

Lin Mu's eyes reflected the glitter of thousands and thousands of runes that swam on its surface. Every single inch of the great sword was covered in formations and it was the most, if not one of the most complex specimen of formations Lin Mu had ever seen.

"I almost forgot about this great sword." Lin Mu said as he looked at the sword intently.

He had gotten this from Jing Luo and had not gotten to study it much. Jing Luo had been at loss with the sword and had spent a great deal even acquiring it. The sword was strange and had a certain will.

It would run away if anyone touched it, and neither Lin Mu nor Jing Luo could understand why. And since it did that, Jing Luo couldn't touch it and study it. Lin Mu had not done much with it either, since he didn't want to lose it somewhere if he took it out in the real world.

"It should be fine to touch it here, right? Not like it can escape anywhere, plus it will return to the ring when I leave the Sleepscape automatically." Lin Mu said before deciding to do it.

"Just be careful. Even I can't tell what kind of a sword it is. It has a strange defensive barrier around it that can prevent out spirit senses from touching its main body." Xukong stated.

Lin Mu nodded his head and understood the danger. 

'If even Xukong can't use his spirit sense on it, then it must be something really powerful.' Lin Mu thought.

Xukong was having some thoughts about the sword as well.

'With the avatar's current level, I can't do much. That barrier on it is certainly not simple… is it an immortal weapon or something more?' Xukong wondered.

Normally, even Immortal Weapons wouldn't be able to hide from his perception and spirit sense, but this sword had managed to do that. This was certainly was surprising and only made Xukong more interested in it.

Lin Mu looked at the great sword and extended his hands towards it. 

"Let's see…" Lin Mu muttered and wrapped his fingers around the handle of the great sword.

~humm~

The moment he did that, the runes on the great sword lit up and a powerful aura emitted from it. The aura only appeared for a fraction of a second and disappeared quickly, but it was enough to startle Lin Mu and make him loosen his grip on the great swot.d

~SWOOSH~

And just like that, the great sword flew out of Lin Mu's hand and went in the distance.

"d.a.m.n, it really is impossible to hold." Lin Mu said as he watched the great sword go far before circling around the entire Sleepscape and return.

~thud~

Having done an entire turn, the sword felt like it was enough and went to sleep. It fell to the ground, making a small indent below it.

"Let's try one more time." Lin Mu said as he went to grab the great sword again.

~WHOOSH!~

"Whoa!" This time the response was even faster and the great sword flew out like a marksman's arrow. 

Lin Mu flew behind it and tried to catch it, but astoundingly it only sped up more. Even after using Blink to a.s.sist him, he could not catch up to the great sword.

"This is certainly not something I can hold." Lin Mu said after giving up.

He had tried for five minutes and it was evident to him that this much time was certainly not enough.
