Rise Of The Worm Sovereign

Chapter 470 - The Battle Begins

~BOOM~

An explosion could be heard echoing throughout the Millennium forest, making all the beasts cower in fear.

"AHAHAHA! Finally, I can do it!" A voice could be heard shouting.

If one looked at where it came from, they would find an olive green snake with crystalline back shouting out. It was long and had burst through the hill near a large lake. Green energy floated around him like ribbons before entering his body.

The spirit Qi fluctuations coming from him would put the beast at the Adult Soul Stage of the Nascent Soul realm.

"With my new mastery, the Twin Lights Liger King is nothing! And that little worm… humph! I'll finish him and eat him whole!" The Olive Viper King proclaimed out loud.

By now, several of the Olive Viper King's subordinates had gathered around and were looking at him from the trees. They too were snakes of different kinds along with some random beasts mixed in.

"What is our King now about to do?"

"Is it time for another war?" 

"YEAH! LET'S GO KILL THEM ALL! WE SHALL OWN THIS ENTIRE FOREST!"

The voices of the beasts could be heard coming from the crowd as they mixed together. But no one noticed at this time that a small group of the beasts that were shouting suddenly disappeared into the ground.

A few seconds later, two more such smaller groups disappeared. The beasts did not fully notice due to their excitement and kept on celebrating their king's recovery and growing stronger.

There were praises and flattery being sent out freely as the Olive Viper King enjoyed the vanity. But while he was doing this, he finally noticed the scent of a few beasts suddenly disappearing.

"Hmm?" The Olive Viper King looked around but didn't really see anything different.

But a few more seconds later, he spotted something from the corner of his eye.

"Where did they go? They were there just a second ago…" The Olive Viper King felt a bit confused.

He focused his gaze on the area, and his eyes went wide.

"Holes?" He potted holes where the beasts were supposed to be.

They were hard to see due to the trees and other foliage, but the Olive Viper King still managed to spot it. His gaze turned fierce as a wave of spirit Qi arouse from his body. His spirit sense spread around the area like a rain covering the land, but he didn't find anything.

This time, he kept a closer eye on things and sensed a few more beast groups disappearing.

"WHO IS IT!" The Olive Viper King shouted out directly.

Hearing their king shouting like this, the subordinates of the Olive Viper King were confused.

"What's happening, my king?" some of the higher ranked subordinates of the olive Viper King questioned after coming closer.

"SEARCH THE AREA! WE HAVE AN INTRUDER!" The Olive Viper King announced.

As soon as his words spread around, his subordinates frantically started to look around for the suspected intruder.

About a minute later, they finally found a sigh.

"LOOK THERE!" A large python with the thickness of an oak tree shouted.

But the moment he did, green crystalline spikes rose from the ground, piercing him and pulling him under.

"WHAT HAPPENED!" Some of the beasts that notice this shouted out in hysteria.

"I GOT YOU NOW!" The Olive Viper King said as he prepared to fly towards the location.

But before he could, he suddenly felt a gust of wind coming from the back. 

~BOOM~

Tens of blades made of Wind attribute spirit Qi hit the back of the Olive Viper King, knocking him off the hill.

"No, 'I' got you!" Lin Wu chuckled as he appeared from the ground.

"Who is that!?" some of the beast that hadn't seen Lin Wu before questioned.

This was the first time they were seeing Lin Wu clearly and were shocked by it. Lin Wu's size was even bigger than their king and he was made entirely of crystal than their king, who only had half of his body made of crystals.

While the Olive Viper King was caught off guard, he wasn't really injured, mostly shocked.

"YOU DARE!" The Olive Viper King yelled as he looked at Lin Wu with its dark eyes.

The white sclera of his eyes was turning red as veins popped up in rage. 

~WHOOSH~

The Olive Viper King rushed towards Lin Wu, full of anger, and breathed out a cloud of poison.

"SHEESH! Someone forgot to brush their teeth!" Lin Wu said as he avoided the poison breath.

He knew that the poison of the Olive Viper king was strong and could even affect him possible, thus he wanted to avoid it as much as he could. To dodge the incoming Olive Viper King, Lin Wu flicked his body to the side as the Olive Viper King slammed into the muddy soil near the lake.

~THUD~

The Olive Viper King's body left an imprint in the soil, but he quickly got up. His spirit sense had already detected Lin Wu and lunged towards him.

It was here that Lin Wu found another big difference between himself and the Olive Viper King.

"Damn, he's faster than I am…" Lin Wu muttered to himself.

His slender form and a smaller size gave him a speed advantage which he was fully making use of.

"You came at just the right time. I've been craving some food!" The Olive Viper king said as another poison breath spread towards Lin Wu.

This time, the breath was in the form of a spray and came straight. Lin Wu had a little time to dodge it and thus didn't do it.

"Huh, think you can get me this easily. No way!" Lin Wu said as a vortex of wind attribute spirit Qi was shot outwards from his body.

The wind blocked the poison breath from coming near Lin Wu, but the Olive Viper King didn't really care and directly slammed into him instead.
