"Damn! The man reached the Adolescent soul stage as well? That was unexpected. Even with the Taiji Celestial's inheritance, it shouldn't have been this fast." Lin Wu was surprised.

Lin Wu reckoned even Shirong might not have reached that point this fast. From what he had seen till now, Nascent soul realm cultivators took at least fifty years to cover the entire Child Soul stage if they had some resources.

Without them, they might even take over a hundred years. From Wang Xiong's progress, it was evident that he was being fully supported due to his position as the chief disciple.

"Looks like helping him out back then was the right decision. Not only did I get that source crystal, but now there is a strong subordinate that I can take advantage of later on." Lin Wu said while nodding.

Having discovered this, Lin Wu decide to pay more attention to what the disciples were talking about.

"Where could the mysterious tomb be?" a few disciples were discussing in a group.

They were all at the Qi refining realm with one of them being at the core condensation realm. It was evident that the core condensation realm disciple was actually the leader of the small group.

"From all the information the elders have gathered over the past four years it is determined that the tomb is somewhere in the fifth ring." The core condensation disciple spoke.

"But can we really trust it?" A doubtful disciple asked.

"Senior brother is right. If it were not for the elders carefully considering it, they wouldn't have halted their mission for four years. I'm sure they did it so that we had more accurate information and had enough time to prepare." A female disciple said.

Hearing this Lin Wu was surprised.

"Huh, four years… so they were actually going to come the very year when I fell asleep? What made them change their mind, I doubt it's just something like collecting the information?" Lin Wu wondered.

He knew that the sect already did several missions in the millennium forest, the only difference was that they seldom came to the inner rings of the forest. The furtherer they went was the third ring as beyond that the core condensation realm beasts started to appear.

Even for core condensation realm disciples, core condensation realm beasts could be very dangerous. Especially since some of the beasts could form large herds or groups and attack together. 

"Let's go then, we should be the first ones to reach there. There are many other teams out to find the tomb. Who knows if we are lucky, we might get an inheritance like Chief Disciple Wang Xiong as well." The core condensation realm disciple spoke.

Hearing this Lin Wu was now sure that all these disciples coming here was related to Wang Xiong.

"What happened? Did the fact that he got the inheritance in the forest get leaked?" Lin Wu wondered.

He scrolled through the different windows and saw nearly a hundred different teams of disciples all over the forest. A majority of them had entered through the southern part, but there were some who had chosen to enter from the other three directions as well.

"The ones who entered from the east will have the advantage. After all the tomb is located in the eastern part of the fifth ring. But… this is only if they get to it." Lin Wu muttered.

He switched the scene to the eastern part and saw only three teams here. They were also stronger overall when considered against the rest.

'They even have a Nascent soul realm disciple with them?' Lin Wu noted. 

Back at the frozen cloud sect he had scanned most of its area and had recorded all of the spirit Qi signatures of the stronger cultivators that were part of it. This included everyone at the Nascent soul realm and above.

"System is this person part of the data we have?" Lin Wu questioned.

"Negative," The system responded right away.

"Huh… so this disciple must have broken through recently." Lin Wu said.

He could tell that he was at the Infant Soul stage of the Nascent Soul realm too and from the slight instability of his cultivation base, it was evident that he had yet to fully uncover the use of his power.

"Senior brother Wang Xiong said that we should approach from the east since the Tomb at the border of the sixth and fifth ring. Everyone should have memorized the map right?" The Nascent soul realm disciple asked.

"Yes, Senior!" all three teams answered at once.

"Good, we shall split into three but still stay within two kilometers of each other. You are to send out a distress signal the moment you encounter danger beyond what you can handle. And if you see any Nascent soul realm beast, run!" The Nascent soul realm disciple explained.

"There are five of them in the forest, right senior?" One of the disciples who looked rather young asked meekly.

Even this young looking disciple was at the Core condensation realm which was rather surprising, considering he didn't look older than sixteen as of now.

"Indeed. They are the five rulers of the forest and are very strong beasts. One of the rulers was said to have left the forest a few years ago, but someone else should have replaced it by now. We need to be careful at every step.

Even I may have a hard time battling them as they are quite likely to be at the Child Soul stage or above." The Nascent soul realm disciple warned.

"We understated senior!" all of them replied.

"Alright, now let's head on." The leader replied and the teams started to move.

Lin Wu understood that this was the team that Wang Xiong had sent in.

"Just what are you planning… Wang Xiong?"
