Rise Of The Worm Sovereign

Chapter 157 - Dual Bladed Glaive Form?

Lin Wu was still in the form of the Long sword and stuck in the ground. But now that he had completed the breakthrough to the next stage, he felt as if his power had been multiplied by a lot.

Shirong who was standing beside it also felt the change through both his connection with the Immortal Crystal armament and the spirit qi that was emanating from his side. He extended his hand and grasped the handle of the Long Sword.

As soon as he did that though, he felt a suggestion appearing in his mind. It had come from the connection he had with the spear, and he knew that it was hinting him to do something.

"HAHAHA! Why should I hesitate now? This is how a battle should be!" Shirong hosted out loud.

Shirong willed it, and the Immortal Crystal armament started changing its form. From the shape of a long sword, it elongated into a pole. Then at the ends of the pole appeared two blades. Each having a single edge and pointing towards the opposite directions.

The long sword had now turned into a dual bladed glaive. There were two red lights glowing at the base of each blade and shone like malevolent eyes in the dark.

"Immortal Crystal Armament: Glaive Form!" 

Lin Wu had especially designed this form with the system's help. He knew that the radiation was incompatible with the spirit qi of the others and thus if he wanted to use it in cooperation with Shirong he would ha vie to figure out a different way.

This glaive form was his solution. One blade of the Glaive would release radiation from Lin Wu, while the other end would channel the qi skills of Shirong. 

Shirong couldn't see the weapon in his hands but knew that it held a great power within it. 

"So what if I can't see? I'll just eradicate the entire area!" Shirong shouted as he jumped up in the sky.

~HONG~LONG~

A humming sound was heard as Shirong started spinning the dual bladed glaive at great speed.

"QUICK ATTACK HIM!" The lamp light Luger's leader shouted and lunged ahead, but the others were unable to do the same.

The bloodline suppression in combination with the previous radiation wave was still affecting them and made it quite difficult for them to move. They tried to control the spirit qi in their body to flow, but it did not, becoming restricted.

Shirong was still spinning the dual headed blade in the sky. The wind generated from its spinning movement created enough thrust to keep him flying. One of the blades of the glaive glowed with a yellow light and turned hot, while the other blade of the glaive was covered in a green light.

The yellow blade was emanating radiation while the green one was emanating wind attribute spirit qi from Shirong.

"TAKE THIS!" Shirong yelled as a storm formed around him.

The spinning wind was laced with potent radiation and had become quite hot. 

"Immortal Sky Shaker Art: Sundering Tempest!" 

~WHOOSH~

The heat storm descended on to the ground with Shirong's will, decimating everything. The grass, trees, leaves were shredded by the sharp winds while the potent radiation contained within it dried them out thoroughly such that they were desiccated. They became so fragile after being dried that they were reduced to dust. 

The same thing happened with the Lamp Light Ligers. Their fur was burned off while their skin singed. Then the Sharp winds cut it apart, spilling their blood, letting more radiation into their bodies, weakening them even more.

"WHAT IS THIS HUMAN!" The leader of the Lamp Light Ligers said in a terrified tone.

But only Lin Wu could hear his true meaning, Shirong couldn't even hear their pain filled cries hidden behind the sound of the stormy winds.

The tempest continued and soon their flesh was cut, the radiation penetrating deeper, before finally ending their lives.

The Storm lasted for about thirty seconds before it faded away, leaving behind a scene of what could only be described as a calamity. There were no grass, nor trees here. Even the ground had been unearthed and a circular depression had been created.

In this circular depression laid the destroyed corpses of all the Lamp Light Ligers. Not a single one of them had been able to survive, and none of them had complete corpses.

~thud~

Shirong fell to the ground on his back and coughed out a mouthful of blood. Using the qi skill Sundering tempest had taken out a lot more from him than he had expected. This was not his first time using this qi skill, but it was his first time using it with the Immortal Crystal armament.

The effects that he had seen were completely incomparable. Using it with a normal spear, halberd or glaive had barely ten percent the power of what the Immortal Crystal Armament had shown. Shirong was left in absolute awe with this amplification.

'And what was that other power contained within it? That… heat? It even affected spirit qi.' Shirong wondered as he took labored breaths.

~huu~

~huu~

~huu~

But Shirong wasn't the only person that was incredibly tired. Lin Wu had also used up a large amount of his own spirit qi to use that ability. The combination of two skills, one innate and one qi skill, was much more complex than one would think.

Especially when two incompatible things like radiation and spirit qi were being combined. The system had been able to create an unstable equilibrium between them, and thus this new attack was formed. The skill had a short period of action, but its power was overwhelming.

While lying on the ground there, Shirong took out a few pills and stuffed them into his mouth, beginning to heal his injuries. Thankfully, Lin Wu was completely uninjured this time and did not need to spend any extra spirit qi to regenerate.

"Seems like I need to research this more. Perhaps there are more combinations that I can use."
