Rise Of The Worm Sovereign

Chapter 416 - Discovered?



Chapter 416 - Discovered?

The Nascent Soul realm cultivator that was waiting outside furrowed his eyes and went down to check. After coming to the same conclusion, he had an enraged expression.

"SEARCH THE ENTIRE AREA! WE HAVE A SECOND PARTY IN THE RUINS RIGHT NOW!" The Nascent Soul realm cultivator shouted.

The man's voice echoed in the entire area and reached the ears of all that were in here. Along with his voice, the man also spread out his spirit sense in the ruins, trying to find the 'intruders'. 

Shirong became tense and was ready to attack when he felt the spirit Qi coming near him. But just when it was actually about to touch his body, the Immortal Crystal Armament automatically wrapped around him and formed into an armor.

The Spirit sense that touched the surface of the armor slipped off it as if water on Teflon. 

~phew~

"Close call…" Lin Wu muttered to himself.

What Lin Wu had just done was to use the traces of unknown energy that were within Shirong's Dantian to form a masking layer. It was the same unknown energy that Lin Wu had used to make the backdrop function and it was now coming in handy.

Although, this ended up depleting a part of it in one go. But now the protection offered by it would last for a while against the spirit sense of others. Lin Wu had not expected it to come in handy right now.

~Howl~

Suddenly, the howl of a beast that was familiar to Lin Wu and Shirong could be heard.

"The Specter Skull Hounds!" Lin Wu recognized.

Lin Wu soon found a couple of Specter Skull Hounds coming towards them.

"Dammit, they can smell him out!" Lin Wu realized.

"There! The Servants of the Skull God have found the intruders! Get them!" The voices of the men could be heard as they found Lin Wu and Shirong's positions.

Shirong narrowed his eyes as a dangerous look appeared on his face. 

"So be it! ~Kaboom~" Shirong said before letting out a massive spirit Qi wave.

Lightning gathered around his body before exploding outwards, destroying the ruins that he was hiding in, along with the specter skull hound that had gotten closer.

~thud~

~thud~

~thud~

The debris from the explosion was shot towards the followers of the Skull god as well and managed to injure a few while killing some directly.

"ATTACK! Don't let him escape!" The Nascent Soul realm cultivator, who was near the place where Ji Quan's corpse had been ordered.

~shua~

In the very next second, various attacks were launched towards Shirong. There were flames, weapons, smoke, and shadows coming towards him now, all of them directed toward his vital areas and intending to kill.

"Humph! You dare?" Shirong harrumphed and waved his hands.

Before the attacks could even reach him, dense wind attribute spirit Qi repelled it all away.

"ARGH!"

"DODGE IT!" 

The cries of the followers of the skull god were heard as their attacks were sent back to them, injuring them further. The ones that were the weaker ones among them were directly killed.

This single opposition of Shirong had killed nearly thirty of the followers of the skull god. But this was merely a drop in the bucket and there were many more that were now heading in his direction.

Lin Wu let his spirit sense fully flow now that there was no use hiding and directly probed each and every follower of the Skull god that was nearby. Now he could even tell which stage of which cultivation realm they were at, unlike before when he could only tell the realm.

"Man, this does not seem good. They got fifteen Adult stage Nascent Soul realm cultivators already. Gonna be a tough battle…" Lin Wu muttered to himself as he quickly tried to make a plan.

There were a few ideas in his mind and he hoped to be able to defeat all of them, but if that was not possible Lin Wu decided to place his bets on the one person who could do so… the Silver Beak Sky Soar Eagle.

She was already at the Shell Completion stage of the Dao Shell realm and her cultivation was still increasing due to the bloodline essence she was assimilating. Not to mention the Silver Beak Sky Soar Eagle had already managed to restrain the Dao Treading realm Aquadream Sea Lotus before.

~Ding~

But while Lin Wu was thinking this all, the chime of a bell was heard coming from afar.

~swoosh~

In the next moment, streams of smoke soared through the sky as they attacked the next barrier. There were over a hundred such streams that attacked the barrier and it started to visibly weaken with each passing second.

"How are they doing this? Those barriers are far too strong for even me," Shirong couldn't help but say.

~shing~

And just as this was said, the glint of a weapon was seen from the side by him.

~clang~

Shirong slammed his hand against the spirit sword that had just attacked him. Since he was wearing the Immortal Crystal Armament in an armor form, Shirong was fully protected as of now and even high grade spirit weapons would not be able to do much against him.

"What! How?" Words of surprise could be heard from the old Nascent Soul realm follower that had just attacked Shirong.

Shirong looked at the man and rushed towards him.

"Why don't you test and see yourself!?" Shirong yelled as he punched out.

The gauntlet on his arm glowed with an emerald green light as wind and lighting attribute spirit Qi swirled around it. 

Immortal Sky Shaker Art, Crystal Armament: Decimation Fist!

Wind and lightning merged as they formed into a cyclone that shot towards the Nascent Soul realm follower. 

~swoosh~

The speed of the attack was far too fast for the old man to dodge and the best he could do was to defend against it. He pulled out six coins and threw them in front of him.

"Prime Coin Hexagram Shield!" The old man chanted.
