Rise Of The Worm Sovereign

Chapter 576 - A Violent Meeting

Lin Wu tried to scan the area with his spirit sense and realized that even touching the outer part of the fog was impossible.

"Is this even fog? Its defense is more like a steel plate…" Lin Wu muttered to himself.

Soon they reached the very edge of the mountain and Wang Xiong came to a halt. He then held out what looked like a badge and flashed it to the front.

~whoosh~

Soon a hole opened up on the fog, allowing them to pass through.

"You can come out now senior, this area is hidden from the view of others." Wang Xiong said.

Lin Wu checked it once to ensure it was fine and only then did he leave the ground. 

~Rumble~

The earth shook as Lin Wu's body appeared out from it. The emerald green glow of his body looked eerie as it got diffused in the fog even more. 

"Please follow me senior. We will have to go by foot from here." Wang Xiong stated.

"Alright," Lin Wu replied before continuing onwards.

Wang Xiong kept the badge in front of him and it acted as a tool to keep the fog away. The three of them continued heading up the mountain while Lin Wu looked at everything. He was trying to see what was hidden here or if there was a secret.

The system was unable to scan anything here and the interference field here was also strong. While the system might be able to forcefully break through it, that was not a good option. 

After all, Lin Wu didn't want to announce to everyone that he was here. The same could be said for a lot of formations. Even the areas that were restricted in the Frozen Cloud sect, the only reason Lin Wu did not enter them even if he had the capability was others finding out about it.

Even if Lin Wu was in the Dao Shell realm, he wasn't overconfident and knew that he couldn't take on the entire sect if he managed to offend them. There were cultivators in the sect that were possible at the very edge of the Immortal Ascension realm, not to mention the ones that were at the Dao Treading realm.

Lin Wu might be able to defend against one or two of them, but if all of them come, it would be very dangerous. 

'Better to keep a low profile right now…' Lin Wu muttered to himself.

After walking for about an hour, they reached the very top of the mountain. It was here that they experience a vast change. 

~shua~

As if they had passed through a curtain, the fog disappeared completely around them.

"Huh? Where did the fog go?" Ye Jin wondered.

"We are now in the main area of the peak. The formation protects this place." Wang Xiong spoke.

And just as Wang Xiong said this, Lin Wu heard a few notifications.

~DING~

——

NOTIFICATION: Detected Dao Shell realm spirit Qi fluctuation 

NOTIFICATION: Detected several Nascent soul realm and core condensation realm spirit Qi signals.

——

Lin Wu narrowed his eyes and quickly switched to the map. One by one, several hundred markers popped up on the map. A majority of them were ones at the core condensation realm and about five percent of them were at the Nascent soul realm.

"1,2… 56… 208… that's a lot…" Lin Wu counted the markers.

He saw about six Nascent soul realm markers hidden to the very back and ahead of them was the Dao Shell realm marker. It was the brightest and biggest one, making it very easy to notice.

~shudder~

Lin Wu also felt something strange in his body. It felt like his bloodline had just sensed something that was dangerous nearby.

"That's bound to be that demon beast…" Lin Wu muttered to himself.

If something could directly make him feel dangerous through his bloodline, even at his current level, it meant that it was something really dangerous.

"Guardian Yun! We are here…" Wang Xiong said out loud.

Lin Wu was alert just in case things went south. Ye Jin was nervous too, but the reality turned out to be rather mundane. For the first five minutes, there was no response.

"Is everything fine?" Ye Jin asked, seeing there was just silence.

"Hmm, he's usually quick… this is strange." Wang Xiong said.

"Should we go on ahead?" Lin Wu asked.

"We may as well." Wang Xiong replied and stepped ahead.

But just as he took five steps forward, a voice was heard.

"I see chief disciple has brought some guests. Won't you introduce them to me?" the voice spoke from the distance.

Lin Wu, who had been seeing the map the entire time, knew that this Guardian Yun had not moved one step from his original location.

'Deliberator acting mysterious huh… I see you.' Lin Wu thought to himself.

A few seconds later, the dot on the map moved at a great speed and appeared right in front of them.

"So this is the man…" Lin Wu muttered as he saw the person dressed in a pale white robe, wearing a white fox mask on his face.

~sniff~

"He's definitely a beast… at least partially." Lin Wu sensed the scent.

Though taking a look at the humanoid looking beast was intriguing to Lin Wu. He now wondered what was the story behind this person and why he had managed to make a deal with the system.

"This is Ye Jin, a Core disciple of our sect and my Dao Companions." Wang Xiong said, pointing to her. "And this… is senior Lin Wu. The King of the Millennium forest, I believe you might have an idea." He added.

Guardian Yun completely ignored Ye Jin and simply looked at Lin Wu who towered over him. In front of Guardian Yun who was two meters tall, and Lin Wu who was hundreds of meters, it was simply a ridiculous comparison.

No one could see the expression of Guardian Yun under the mask and thus it was hard to estimate what he was thinking. Though Lin Wu had some other approaches. 

Radiation perception activated and his field of vision changed.

"Wanting to test out I see…" Lin Wu muttered to himself as several skills silently activated without anyone knowing.

Then in the very next moment, a tearing sound was heard.

~SHUA~

~RIP~

It was as if the air itself was torn in half when the Fox masked man moved. 

~DENG~

Wang Xiong and Ye Jin were stunned and pushed back as they saw Guardian Yun clash with Lin Wu.

~Crackle~

Currently, Lin Wu was using his tail to block the attack of Guardian Yun. The man in question had condensed a hammer made out of ice and had swung it at Lin Wu. 

"Oho? You got a different definition of hospitality, I see…" Lin Wu spoke as he easily resisted the attack.

Frost had started to spread from the Hammer onto Lin Wu's tail. Terrifying ice Qi could be felt in the air as it started to rise in concentration. Wang Xiong felt the pressure and chill and was instantly alarmed.

He grabbed onto Ye Jin and retreated as far as he could in that moment.

"What?!" Ye Jin was startled.

"Dammit, what is guardian Yun doing?" Wang Xiong was confused.

Lin Wu saw the frost and ice forming on his tail and smirked.

"Something like this is not enough," He said as copious amounts of radiation started pouring out of his body.

~Sizzle~

~poof~

The ice and frost evaporated almost instantly and even the normal spirit Qi in the air was affected. Guardian Yun narrowed his eyes as he saw the handle of the hammer he was holding melt as well.

"Fire elemental Qi? No… what is this?" He muttered to himself finding it strange.

The heat was as if coming out of nowhere. He couldn't feel any spirit Qi working for it, but rather it felt like the spirit Qi was being repelled instead.

~shing~

Lin Wu took this opportunity to flick his body and extend a spike from the side that pierced the head of the ice hammer.

~shatter~

The hammer broke apart like chalk in guardian Yun's hand, and the man quickly flew back.

"Is that enough or do you want more?" Lin Wu asked.

The man looked on in silence, his thoughts unknown. 

"Let's do more," He said in a low voice and raised his hands.

~shua~

The spirit Qi in the air started to gather at a rapid rate and even more spirit Qi was pouring out of Guardian Yun's body. Lin Wu saw the spirit Qi moving around in specific patterns and found it to be recognizable.

"So he's using that… this will be a bit hard to resist…" Lin Wu internally said to himself.

~whoosh~

He reacted immediately and let wind attitude spirit Qi surround his body. The wind moved rapidly and turned into a sphere around him. The chill coming from Guardian Yun was almost isolated from it, but the ice spirit Qi still tried to penetrate it.

"I'm just starting!" Lin Wu said as radiation started leeching into the wind attribute spirit Qi.

~shua~

As if the air was lit up on fire, the sphere of wind exploded and turned into a scorching fireball. Lin Wu's body was hidden within it and the ice attribute spirit Qi coming from Guardian Yun was fully pushed back.

But that was just the start, as Guardian Yun made a few hand seals.

"Forbidden Frost Scripture: Tearing Blizzard!" He chanted

Wang Xiong and Ye Jin who heard it, were shocked to no end.

"That… patriarch's original technique!" Ye Jin recognized.

Wang Xiong though gritted his teeth and pulled Ye Jin further back.

'Has he finally gone insane?'
