Rise Of The Worm Sovereign

Chapter 990 Speeding Past The Islands

It wasn't the first time Lin Wu was seeing buildings like these either. He felt that they were actually a bit familiar, even having similar runes and carvings on them.

"Didn't I see them in the old ruins in the Pale Marble kingdom?" Lin Wu recalled.

He had seen such buildings when he had gone searching for the Vermilion Bird's Bloodline crystals. It was also then that he had met Zhu Tianying for the first time.

"Are these related to the same old people?" Lin Wu couldn't help but wonder.

~DING~

——

ANSWER: According to the system's analysis these old ruins have similar structure to the one's found in the Pale Marble kingdom. But they seem to have been inhabited by a different type of people. It is quite possible that the ruins made in the Pale marble kingdom might have been left behind by them as well, but were taken over by the later settlers.

——

"Hmm… I see. And since these ruins have the Teleportation Arrays build by the invaders of the past, it is quite likely that all those ruins were also made by them. Now it makes sense." Lin Wu guessed.

He looked at the map and saw the teleportation array about ten kilometer deep into the Island. This was certainly the largest Island he had come across so far and it had a lot of beasts on it too.

'May as well gather more 'data'.' Lin Wu thought.

Since they were new beasts he had not seen before, it was best to expand his scope of knowledge. Plus it didn't matter if these beasts were weak, all he needed was to keep them for the Avatar.

There were also some spirit herbs growing here that were relatively valuable. Since they had not been touched for quite literally hundreds of years, they had plenty of time to grow to maturity.

Of course, to Lin Wu these herbs wouldn't do much but they would very well serve to expand his already massive fortune.

After about two hours, Lin Wu had gathered all he needed from the Island and could now head to the Teleportation Array.

"Scan the array system and see if it can be linked to the rest." Lin Wu ordered.

~DING~

"Oh? This one needs other resources?" Lin Wu saw the list, finding it to be reasonable. "Fine, do it system. And also connect it to the tomb's array." He ordered.

~DING~

REPAIRING: Teleportation Array

INITIALIZING: Please wait patiently…

——

Lin Wu watched as several items such as Spirit stones, spirit jade fragments, beast hide and more resources flew out of his storage. System quickly got to work on them and started making the things needed for the repairs.

The beast hide was cut apart into triangular pieces about six inches in size. These pieces were then infused with spirit qi and new runes were written on them.

Once the runes were all inscribed the triangular beast hides were pierced with a long sharp piece of Spirit Jade. Combining these two a formation flag was prepared.

Of course, using beast hide and spirit jade to make Formation flags was a little too much, but with an old array like this, it was the best course of actions. Normally though, formation flags were made using fabric on which runes would be painted on. The ink used for this was made from beast blood and some other spirit herbs.

It was the more affordable method, but the system had taken the high class method instead.

The formation flags flew out into specific places on the ground and embedded themselves into it. Next the spirit stones rushed into the nodes of the array and powdered it up.

A few more materials took their places and in about thirty minutes the Teleportation Array was repaired.

"Good. Let's move onto the next location then shall we?" Lin Wu quickly activated the array and picked the furthest location.

A minute later, his body disappeared and passed through the spatial channel once more. Lin Wu paid a lot more attention this time since the time he spent here was very less.

He could sense the strange energy here that was different than anything he had felt before.

'The Spatial Element is part of the Three Primordial elements right… so it should be possible to grasp it too…' Lin Wu could see the great merit in learning it.

But he didn't know how to go about it. Even the system would be helpless unless it had data to work on, and as of now, Lin Wu had not come across any data of this kind.

He hadn't met or seen any beasts that had an affinity to the Spatial element and even the most talented humans he met so far weren't able to use it. It made Lin Wu wonder, just how difficult it might be compared to the four heavenly elements.

"If I can grasp it somehow, I might be able to find a way out of this world without needing to ascend. This will allow me to take others with me as well." Lin Wu muttered to himself.

In the time that he had spent thinking all this, he had already returned to the Ming Dao world and was now on another island.

~DING~

DATA BANKS: Updated

MAP: Updated

——

Lin Wu saw the new markers appear on the map and began his work again. This process repeated for several more islands as Lin Wu got closer and closer to the Hu Continent.

Eventually though, he reached the final island on the list.

"No more arrays from here, I'll need to fly the rest of the way." Lin Wu rose to the sky.

But he didn't even get to go farther than a kilometer before he heard a warning.

~BOOM~
