Rise Of The Worm Sovereign

Chapter 399 - The Silver Beak Sky Soar Eagle Is Trapped?

There were thousands of spirit stones, along with other things such as spirit herbs, spirit tools and even some books kept in the vault. Lin Wu quickly stored them before heading to the next place on the map.

There were over ten clans in the Jiao Dian city and all of them had their fair share of items stored away. While Lin Wu had killed plenty of cultivators and eaten them, they didn't really have that many items in their spatial storage treasures.

Lin Wu was able to automatically sort their spatial treasures and any spirit tools they had on their body when he ate them and the system would categorize them. Till now he had obtained over a hundred spatial storage tolls from the city and was depending on the system to scan and sort the items.

One by one, Lin Mu raised each of the vaults and obtained all of the things that were hidden in there. He also found several cultivation techniques, but would need to wait for the systems analysis to complete before he was able to see if they were useful to him or not.

"Hmm… where is the Silver Beak Sky Soar Eagle now?" Lin Wu looked at the map.

Since she had not returned despite it being quite some time, Lin Wu was curious. Then on the map, he saw the Silver Beak Sky Soar Eagle about two hundred kilometer away from the Jiao Dian city.

"Huh? What's she doing there?" Lin Wu wondered and zoomed into the map.

There were some trees and hills around the Silver Beak Sky Soar Eagle, but he couldn't see any other markers there. The only marker that glowed there was that of the Silver Beak Sky Soar Eagle.

"System, update this area's map." Lin Wu ordered.

~Ding~

——

SCAN COMPLETE: Map updated

——

In a few seconds, the system updated the entire map that it had scanned and showed the new changes on it. Most of the life markers on the map had already disappeared, which was humans.

As for the ones that were still present in the ruined city and around it, they belonged to that of the various beasts that lived in the area. They weren't particularly of interest to Lin Wu as they weren't even at the Core condensation realm.

Lin Wu instead gazed at the area around the Silver Beak Sky Soar Eagle and saw that there was actually a marker for active sprint Qi disturbance there.

"System what is this?" Lin Wu questioned, unable to understand.

~DING~

——

ANSWER: The spirit Qi fluctuations show that they are from a formation array. But the system cannot tell what kind of a formation array it is without coming into closer contact. The Silver Beak Sky Soar Eagle seems to be contained within the formation array though.

——

"WHAT! How the hell did that even happen?" Lin Wu couldn't help but exclaim.

In the very next second, he burrowed underneath the ground and bored his way to the location of the Silver Beak Sky Soar Eagle. 

~Rumble~

The ground around Silver Beak Sky Soar Eagle shook and she looked around.

~PIIIII~

She let out a cry and slammed her wings at the cage like barrier that was surrounding her. 

~DENG~

The cage rang like a bell, but was surprisingly able to withstand the attack of the Silver Beak Sky Soar Eagle. 

~thud~

The ground burst open and out came Lin Wu. He looked at the cage that surrounded the Silver Beak Sky Soar Eagle and was shocked.

"How did this even happen?" Lin Wu questioned.

"It's those sneaky humans! Three of them were running away and two of them suddenly used this formation to trap me. Their bodies withered right away after using it though, and the third human managed to get away." The Silver Beak Sky Soar Eagle answered.

"Huh? What was their cultivation base?" Lin Wu questioned, feeling suspicious.

"The seemed to be at the core condensation realm at first, but when they used this formation, their cultivation suddenly increased to the Nascent Soul realm." The Silver Beak Sky Soar Eagle answered.

"What about the third human that got away?" Lin Wu questioned.

"He was at the core condensation realm as well, but he was much younger than the others." The Silver Beak Sky Soar Eagle answered.

Hearing the Silver Beak Sky Soar Eagle's words, Lin Wu understood that she had met some hidden experts. Though they were not able to fight much against the Silver Beak Sky Soar Eagle, they did manage to delay her from pursuing the third man.

~Sigh~

"Let's get you out first…" Lin Wu said and raised his tail up.

Its shape started to change, and it became like a long blade. The long blade then glowed before a blue layer appeared over it. 

~shua~

~kacha~

Lin Wu swung his long blade like tail at the cage barrier and broke it in one hit. The cage split apart like cake, though the noise made by it was a lot more annoying than that of the people who sang happy birthday.

~piiiiii~

The Silver Beak Sky Soar Eagle let out a cry and flapped her wings, destroying the rest of the cage. Once Lin Wu had made one cut on the formation, the rest of it had weakened considerably. 

"This was a twin metal mesh cage formation array, wasn't it system?" Lin Wu questioned upon recalling about it.

Lin Wu had read about this formation array in the many records that he had, but he wasn't fully sure.

~Ding~

——

ANSWER: yes, this is a Twin metal mesh cage formation array. But it was an inferior version that was powered with a sacrifice technique, along with a lot of spirit stones. Traces of souls can also be felt here, which is a confirmation that the two men who used this formation array were at the Nascent Soul realm.

——

Upon seeing the system's answer, Lin Wu furrowed his brows and felt like this was not something simple.
