Rise Of The Worm Sovereign

"Sssss," Shirong gritted his teeth as the armor rubbed against his skin which was already burned.

Once the armor was fully turned into a spear, one could see the ugly burn wounds all over Shirong's back and chest. His hands were trembling as he popped a healing pill into his mouth and sat down to stimulate the healing properties.

He continued using more pills and twelve hours passed like this. The burns on his body were finally healed and his skin turned to its normal color. 

While this was happening, Lin Wu was going over the entire series of events and the notification log that the system had recorded. A lot of things were happening all at once and Lin Wu did not have much time to focus on other things while he was using his innate skill.

In fact, he had almost failed at stopping the spatial rift, but thankfully his proficiency rose at the very last moment which helped him tide through it.

" System show me the logs," Lin Wu ordered.

~Ding~

Lin Wu was barely holding on and his spirit qi was draining rapidly when he was trying to suppress the spatial rift. He was using radiation manipulation to use the natural radiation in the environment to force the spatial attribute qi back.

He didn't know whether this would fully work, but thankfully it did and stopped the spatial rift. Honestly, he had not expected to fully close the spatial rift, all he wanted was to stop the suction force so that Shirong could get away safely.

But after using the innate skill radiation manipulation for a long time, that too in a complex task, its proficiency increased which made everything easier for Lin Wu. That was when he gathered even more radiation and made the vortex to suppress the spatial rift from all sides.

When the spatial rift was closed, he was wondering if his identity would be exposed and the others would find out he was a supposed 'immortal weapon'. But thankfully Shirong had given him an idea which he would not have thought of them because he was also tired mentally.

But there was another thing that was restricting him, which was none other than his proficiency level. But he thought he may as well try it and see if it worked. This time though, he could leech of spirit qi from Shirong and use it in the skill.

In a pleasant surprise, the skill proficiency of cellular manipulation increased as well, and he was successfully able to turn into an Armour. Though he had to admit that this form was rather uncomfortable to him, but then he reckoned that he will get used to it, eventually.

Another big thing he learned was the relation between radiation and spirit qi. Lin Wu had been wondering how a naturally present thing such as radiation would affect spirit qi as it was present nearly everywhere. But he got the answer when his proficiency increased and he was able to perceive everything better.

It turned out that only when radiation was in a high enough concentration would it affect the spirit qi, but the exception to this was none other than himself. If he was the one manipulating radiation, even a smaller amount of it could resist spirit qi.

This was a new discovery to him and opened up a lot of new ideas. Another thing he realized was that he was getting closer to being able to control specific types of radiation. Right now he was merely using everything blindly. He didn't really know how the physics of it worked, but it worked.

Even his qi amplification skill increased in proficiency because he had been using it all this time, which was a nice surprise to him. Now there was another thing that required his attention, which was none other than his current form of an armor.

He wondered if there would be any new differences in this form. In his different weapon forms, he was able to increase the performance of certain qi skills that Shirong used. He wondered if this could apply to any defensive skills that he knew as well.

"System, how's the analysis going?" Lin Wu questioned.

~Ding~

——

ANSWER: The new data has increased the speed of analysis and it is approximately fifty percent done.

"Good, hopefully we'll know what exactly happened back there…" Lin Wu muttered to himself.

***

Shirong finally opened his eyes and looked at the spear that was lying on the ground next to him. He stared at it for a few seconds before standing up and walking to the bathroom. An hour later, Shirong was refreshed and clad in a new set of clothes.

"Ah, this feels much better…" Shirong said in a relaxed tone.

He entered the room he was previously in and saw that the spear was still there. He picked it up and wondered what he could do with it now since he couldn't store it in the spatial storage treasure anymore. He could always continue to wear it as an armor, but it also meant that his spirit qi would be continuously consumed.

~Sigh~

"I'll need to get a new high grade spatial storage treasure soon… but now I lack money as well. Hmm, clan Head Lu shouldn't mind sponsoring me for a bit, besides I can always pay him back later." Shirong muttered to himself.

Shirong didn't know that even if he had a high grade spatial treasure tool, Lin Wu wouldn't go inside it. He was scared by what had happened and would not go inside another one till he knew what exactly happened. 

"Well, then let's go talk to clan head Lu…" Shirong muttered to himself before putting the spear in a safe and leaving the courtyard.
