Rise Of The Worm Sovereign

Lin Wu then saw how the disciples got ready for the trials. They went for the trails of the Sky Bright Daoist first, as was the need. He didn't know why the monkey beast had chosen to put this condition but Lin Wu didn't really mind it either way.

He could tell that the techniques of the Sky Bright Daoist were inferior to that of the Taiji Celestial, of course, and the inheritance that he was passing on was for a lower kind of technique that he had comprehended himself.

"Hmm… system can I see the trials of the Sky Bright Daoist?" Lin Wu questioned.

~DING~

——

ANSWER: The Trials of the Sky Bright Daoist are held in a separate array architecture and is inaccessible from the main formation array.

——

"I see… guess I'll check it out later." Lin Wu muttered.

He could now tell that the monkey beast was probably doing this so that he could fulfill some kind of a condition that he had. He reckoned that when the monkey beast got the inheritance himself, he may have had to also get others to join him as a condition.

And that may have been why he was getting all of them to take the trials. He would of course not break the orders that Lin Wu had given and had stated directly that the Sky Bright Daoist's inheritance was inferior and that the Taiji Celestial could still be obtained after passing.

That way, those that did not pass the Taiji Celestial's trials would still gain the inheritance of the Sky Bright Daoist. In a way, it was a win-win situation and didn't really cause Lin Wu any specific problem.

It was actually helping him delay for time since he would not have been able to interfere with the trials if he was in hibernation.

"I wonder how they are doing now… since this is from five years ago, they should be done by now." Lin Wu wondered.

The memories had now ended here, and Lin Wu was switching to the ones that the avatar had.

~shua~

The scene changed and now he could see things from the perspective of the avatar instead.

"Oh? What's this? Someone came to challenge?" Lin Wu said upon seeing the scene.

Lin Wu saw several beasts standing around the Tomb. Most of them were the ones that were under the servants of Lin Wu, but there were also some beasts that didn't seem like they belonged to the millennium forest.

"Now who are they?" Lin Wu wondered.

He tried to recognize the beasts but could not. 

"System, any idea?" Lin Wu asked.

~DING~

——

ANSWER: The beasts are southern Tusk Tapirs. They live beyond the area of the Frozen Cloud sect and are highly territorial.

——

"Huh? Why are they here then if they are like that?" Lin Wu wondered and watched the memory.

***

"What are you all doing? You dare tread upon the land of King Lin Wu?" The Hook Winged Swan said in a fierce tone.

"Ptui~ What King? He's merely a Nascent soul realm beast. Our tribe has many such members. From now on, this area is ours and you all can either become slaves or get lost!" The leader of the Southern Tusk's Tapirs said.

Hearing this, Lin Wu felt a bit bewildered.

"What is this? The young master equivalent of a beast?" Lin Wu said in disbelief.

"You dare?!" The Hook Winged swan said before jumping down.

~SHUA~

His wings created sharp winds that pushed the trees and smaller beasts away before they could even do anything.

"HUMPH! Impudent!" The Leader said as they started to battle.

At first, the Hook Winged Swan seemed to be doing well, but the defense of the Souther Tusk Tapir was just too high. Their sharp tusks were also quite dangerous and could create deep wounds.

Even though the Hook Winged Swan was at the Nascent Soul realm as well, it was only at the Infant Soul stage and was not in a right match up against the Tapir beast. They fought for about thirty minutes and no one came out on top.

Though it didn't seem like the Hook Winged swan would be able to do much and he was also getting exhausted.

~CHIRP~

It was at this time a loud sound came from the distance.

~WHOOSH~

Strong winds blew as another bird beast arrived in front of the two fighting beasts. This was none other than the High Wind Gale Sparrow.

"STOP!" He shouted as razor sharp gusts of winds spread in the area.

~deng~deng~deng~

The winds clashed against the tough skin of the tapirs and managed to injure the weaker ones.

"Calling for help, huh? Won't be enough." The leader of the Tapir beast said before letting out a loud cry.

~TROOOOOO~

More Tapir beasts appeared and now there were over ten Nascent soul realm Tapir Beasts here. Seeing this Lin Wu was feeling weirder and weirder.

"Something definitely happened during this time… a shame that the main system was offline so we can't check the other data." Lin Wu muttered.

Since all of this had already happened before, he could only watch as the result had long since been decided.

~SHUA~SHUA~SHUA~

But the arrival of the Tapir beasts also triggered the other rulers of the millennium forest. And along with them, the remaining servants of Lin Wu arrived as well.

The Slim Arm ape king fought one of the Tapir Beasts that was at the Adolescent Stage, while the Split Thorn Horn Beetle King did the same. The Demon Spine ape was even more ambitious and took on two Child Soul stage Nascent soul realm tapir beasts on his own.

~BOOM~

~THUD~ 

~BAM~

~CLANG~

The battle raged on for a long time and the area was greatly changed due to it. Only the immediate surroundings of the Tomb were safe due to the Formation array protecting it. 

~huu~huu~huu~

The rulers of the forest were now exhausted as three days had passed since the battle had begun.
