Rise Of The Worm Sovereign

Chapter 456 - Club Tailed Lizard

Lin Wu had certainly not expected to find the mate of the Olive Viper King here.

"I did know that the Olive Viper King had a lot of descendants, but most of them were snakes. This means that he had other mates, but this one seems to be different. Did he find her somewhere else?" Lin Wu couldn't help but wonder.

"Those eggs as well… they are different…" Lin Wu narrowed his eyes.

Along with his own bloodline, he could feel something else mixed in it. It was hard for him to tell what it was exactly thought. 

"System scan the lizard beast and tell me what it is." Lin Wu ordered.

~DING~

——

SCANNER ACTIVATED: Target selected 

TARGET IDENTIFIED: Club Tailed Lizard

CULTIVATION BASE: Infant Soul Stage of the Nascent Soul realm 

INFO: The Club Tailed Lizard is a relatively docile spirit beast as compared to other beasts like it. It lives in the tropical forest of the eastern central part of the Long Continent and can also be found on the island in the great ocean.

It can reach up to the Dao Shell realm and has the potential to even reach the Dao Treading realm if given the right resources. Due to their docile nature, they were once used as mounts by the kingdoms of the old. But the many wars in the past led to their population dwindling and now they have become rather rare. 

Their tails have a bulbous growth at the end which they use as a club and it is enough to break the bones of several beasts. The females of this species are highly protective of their offspring and will fiercely defend them till death.

There have even been cases of them self detonating at the precipice of death.

Reading the entire page of information the system showed Lin Wu, he was rather intrigued. He had not thought that a beast like this had existed nearby. He was also surprised by the club like tail since he had not seen it on this beast.

"If this is a club tailed lizard… then where is its club?" Lin Wu wondered.

No matter how much he observed the Lizard he could not see the bulb like club at the end of its tail. 

"Hang on… that looks like scar tissue?" Lin Wu said.

~DING~

——

ANSWER: This Club Tailed Lizard has been injured recently and had the top of its tail which had the club on it broken off. 

——

"No wonder… perhaps it was this lizard that the Olive Viper King fought and got injured? I did know that reptiles get into a little fight when mating and injuries are not uncommon." Lin Wu recalled.

Having learned of this, Lin Wu had a great hunch that this was perhaps why the Olive Viper king has not been active as of yet and that it had been hiding the presence of the Club Tailed Lizard.

"How's he hiding her, though?" Lin Wu wondered and focused on the area around the Club Tailed lizard.

After a little bit of a search, Lin Wu saw the hidden secret.

"Huh… never expected the Olive Viper King would end up with an ability like this." Lin Wu muttered to himself.

From what Lin Wu could perceive, there were small blocks of faces buried around the area where the Club Tailed Lizard was living in. But that was not all, as the faces contained radiation.

This was quite interesting to Lin Wu as it was not fully radiating outwards like radiation normally should. Rather, it seemed like the radiation was 'controlled' and only enough amount was released to neutralize the spirit Qi fluctuations of the Lizard beast.

"That's a very unique method… I gotta take note of this." Lin Wu muttered to himself.

'While it is a bit shitty, it is usable… haha!' Lin Wu thought.

He observed the Lizard and the eggs for a bit before deciding to leave. Though he still didn't know how the Olive Viper King managed to bring the Club Tailed Lizard into the Millennium forest without other beasts discovering it. 

'Even if he can hide the spirit Qi fluctuations, that should only be if the lizard is confined to a specific area rather than moving. How did he accomplish this?' Lin Wu couldn't help but wonder.

Knowing that it was useless waiting here and thinking about it, Lin Wu decided to return to the Mole Beast.

"Did you find anything, master?" The Mole Beast questioned.

"I did, yes. The Olive Viper King has a new mate that is at the nascent Soul realm as well." Lin Wu answered.

"What?! How?" The Mole beast was shocked to hear this.

"I don't know either. But he managed to hide the Club Tailed Lizard that is his mate for all this time now and even managed to let it enter the illumine forest without anyone knowing. I do not know how this is possible, but this is probably why he hasn't left his nest all this time." Lin Wu replied.

"That does make sense… I guess I'll keep an eye on him and see what else happens." The mole beast stated.

"Alright, you keep it up. I'll take my leave." Lin Wu replied.

"Farewell master and thank you for your help." The mole beast expressed his gratitude.

After leaving the underground cave of the Mole Beast, Lin Wu decided to pay a visit to his last beast servant, which was none other than the Split thorn horn beetle. She was also at the Peak stage of the Core condensation realm and was currently the strongest among all of his servants perhaps.

'Even though both the mole beast and the beetle beast got the rhombus gem at the same time, the Beetle beast managed to come out on top. Hmm… I guess the mole beast spying all this time affected his speed. 

The beetle beast on the other hand, was at the beetle king's territory and got plenty of time to focus on its own cultivation.' Lin Wu guessed.

And just while thinking all this, he reached the location of the beetle beast.
