Rise Of The Worm Sovereign

Chapter 206 - Shirong's Return?

Shirong seemed to have had some gains from observing the Heavenly tribulation and looked to be happy. Lin Wu didn't know what exactly it was, but he thought of keeping an eye on it. 

His Avatar on the other hand had recorded everything when the heavenly tribulation happened and the system had already analyzed and updated its data banks. The avatar had also cultivated in the past two days and already had enough spirit Qi for the upgrade.

"Alright system, upgrade my cultivation base to the next stage." Lin Wu's avatar ordered.

~Ding~

——

UPGRADING CULTIVATION BASE: Early stage of the core condensation realm -> Mid stage of the core condensation realm.

SPIRIT QI CONSUMED: 6000 units [liquid spirit Qi]

CULTIVATION BASE UPGRADED: Avatar Data Updated

AVATAR CULTIVATION: Mid Stage of the Core Condensation Realm.

    -Spirit Qi required to upgrade = [0000/12000] units (liquid spirit Qi)

"This was quicker than before. Seems like going through it once before helps a lot." Lin Wu muttered to himself.

He could already feel the difference in the power, and this was spread across both the bodies. It was a strange sensation, but Lin Wu was quickly getting used to it. He looked at the map and saw that his new subordinate and his companions were nearly out of the forest by now.

Unlike Shirong, they had not stopped to see the heavenly tribulation and had instead focused on traveling. Lin Wu saw that they were getting into battles with the beasts and wondered how they were doing.

"Wang Xiong is definitely handling it rather easily now." Lin Wu said.

He observed him on the map for a couple of hours like watching a game live stream and then got bored.

"Man, they really are slow. I should just tell them so directions." Lin Wu muttered to himself.

He used the communication link with Wang Xiong and spoke to him.

"Senior? Do you need something?" Wang Xiong asked.

"No. I'm gonna give you some directions, and you just follow them. That way you'll avoid the beasts and get out of the forest quicker." Lin Wu replied.

"Really? Thank you senior." Wang Xiong responded.

Lin Wu nodded and then started to direct him in the safe direction. He entertained his avatar like this while cultivating at the same time. Lin Wu's main body was currently skewering a couple of beasts and draining them of their vital energy and spirit Qi.

~shing~

"Should be out of here in one more day…" Shirong muttered to himself.

Lin Wu checked the map and found that they were at the edge of the second ring now. The number of beasts was getting lesser and lesser, which had increased their speed, thankfully. Now Shirong could just fly the rest of the way on the spirit sword, and it wouldn't pose him much of a problem.

In the past two days, Lin Wu had also been receiving some information from his servants too. The bird beasts told him that the viper king and the liger king were searching for a new beast and had sent out their subordinates for it.

The Beetle said something else though. Apparently what the cricket beast had said was true and the beetle king was truly inviting Lin Wu to meet him. They were also looking for him, and the beetle was simply informing him in advance while keeping her identity a secret.

They were not able to find Lin Wu directly, thus they were now looking for the sparrow beast and the swan beast as they were his subordinates and thus should know his location. Lin Wu could have directly gone there but wanted to wait and watch the actions of the rest of the beasts.

"This should be due to the results of that battle of the bloodlines. I don't know if I should accept this though… I'll just wait and watch, I guess." Lin Wu thought out loud.

The mole beast though told him about the different attitudes of the Viper King And the Liger King. While the viper king wanted to outright kill him, the liger king seemed to be a little bit more cautious since he had found out he was the one that killed all the lamp light ligers.

The thing that Lin Wu was most happy about was the cultivation speed. It was rather quick, and he knew it wouldn't take it long for his avatar to reach the peak stage of the Core condensation realm. But that was where a thought came to him that confused him.

If both his main body and the avatar reached the Nascent Soul realm, then will they both have a heavenly tribulation and nascent souls, or not. Even the system couldn't answer this for him and told him that only doing it will give him an answer.

Lin Wu could upgrade his main body to the Nascent Soul realm at any time and was only waiting to reach the Deer Wood city, so that he could teleport back to the tomb to do it. He also needed to wait for the Tribulation attenuation formation to charge up so that was another thing. 

'If push comes to shove, I'll just use the stored spirit Qi that I have. I should still have plenty left over after using it for the upgrade.' Lin Wu thought.

Shirong kept on fighting a few beasts and eventually exited the Millennium forest. 

"Finally…" He muttered and continued onwards.

About an hour later, he was at the Deer Wood City's entrance. He saw that there were a lot more people going in and out of the city. Some of them were workers that were carrying materials and transporting them onto carts that were being pulled by some tamed beasts.

There were also cultivators that were overseeing the work and ensuring that it went well.

"HURRY! We have to finish up the Tribulation platform as soon as possible and we haven't even accumulated all the materials by now," one of the cultivators shouted at the workers.

The workers gritted their teeth and hurried according to directions. One of these workers looked up at the sky and spotted something.

"LOOK ITS YOUNG MASTER SHIRONG!"
