~Crack~

Some distance from Wang Xiong, the ground started to crack before it parted. And from the ground appeared a large body. It kept on extending more and more, stunning both Wang Xiong and Ye Jin.

The two of them could only gawk at it, while Ye Jin wondered just what kind of a being this was. She could tell that it was a beast, but the size of it was simply massive. Wang Xiong's private courtyard was rather large, but even then, half of the yard was directly occupied by the being that just appeared.

Finally, Wang Xiong could see the head of Lin Mu that appeared from the mass of crystals.

"SENIOR! It's really you!" Wang Xiong said, feeling excited.

"Of course it's me. Who else do you think looks like me?" Lin Wu lightly joked.

"Y-yes! Only Senior Lin Wu has a magnificent body like this!" Wang Xiong stammered, but still managed to flatter Lin Wu.

Ye Jin was finally coming around and understood who Lin Wu was.

"This… this… this is the senior you talked about all these years?" Ye Jin asked in disbelief.

"Won't you introduce us Wang Xiong?" Lin Wu asked with a smirk, though to Ye Jin it was just a terrifying look instead.

"Ah yes, Senior Lin Wu, meet my Dao companion Ye Jin. I believe you've already tested her before, so she should be up to your standard." Wang Xiong quickly turned into a formal mode.

Ye Jin was a bit taken aback by it took.

'Why does it feel like I'm meeting the parents now?' Ye Jin wondered.

"I see… very well, I should introduce myself as well." Lin Wu said, turning Ye Jin nervous as well.

"I am, Lin Wu! The Crimson Eyed Emerald Worm, The progenitor of the Emeraldine Legion, The King of the Millennium forest, the keeper of the Taiji Celestial's tomb and his direct disciple!" Lin Wu introduced himself, using all the titles that he had.

It was as if steam was coming off Ye Jin's head and she felt like she was about to faint.

Even Wang Xiong had not expected Lin Wu to say things like these. Though he was intrigued by some of the things that he said.

"Senior you said you are the King of the millennium forest? When did that happen?" Wang Xiong questioned.

"A couple of days after I woke up from my seclusion." Lin Wu answered.

"Whoa! Then that means… you broke through?" Wang Xiong asked with anticipation.

"Of course," Lin Wu said and unsealed his aura partially.

~shua~

The spirit Qi in the air suddenly turned still as if frozen and all the beasts that were on the peak became dead silent as well. Even though Lin Wu's aura was mostly contained within the courtyard, his bloodline was still strong enough to spread the resonance around and affect the beasts.

~gasp~

Ye Jin felt short of breath and for her, it was like a hill was placed on her chest. Wang Xiong was in a slightly better condition, but it was difficult for him to breathe as well. But that was not all as his eyes flickered slightly and he saw something in Lin Wu.

Ever since getting the inheritance of the Taiji Celestial, Wang Xiong had been diligently practicing and improving his proficiency with the Taiji Refinement scripture. This allowed him to devise some techniques and skills of his own.

One of such techniques was similar to Lin Wu's Radiation perception, but this allowed him to see the yin and Yang aspects of the world instead. Wang Xiong's proficiency with it was very low and even after all this time, he had barely managed to get some control over it.

When he activated the skill and observed anything, it would appear in different shades of grey. Yet even then, Lin Wu's body appeared like a sun to him. He had to quickly stop using the skill or he feared that he may just turn blind.

'Just what level is senior even at? How much power and energy are confined within his body? Even patriarch was not close to this level when I observed him secretly.' Wang Xiong thought in his mind, feeling awed.

~humm~

Lin Wu quickly withdrew his aura in a small span of five seconds, yet that was enough to turn both Wang Xiong and Ye Jin sweaty.

"Ah sorry, I've yet to gain the same control as I used to have on my body." Lin Wu lightly apologized, though it didn't seem like he was truly thoughtful.

"It… I-it's fine, senior. It is we that are at the fault for asking this…" Wang Xiong quickly responded.

Now that he had felt a hint of Lin Wu's power, he was more than impressed. Lin Wu's veneration in his heart had increased by many times. Ye Jin was the same and now understood why Wang Xiong often muttered the word 'senior' so much.

"Senior Lin Wu is certainly a peerless expert." Ye Jin couldn't help but praise either.

The two cultivators couldn't even tell at what Level Lin Wu's cultivation base was at due to it overwhelming their senses. And they didn't dare to ask him directly either, as it could just lead to more trouble if it was taken as being rude.

Lin Wu chuckled internally and felt pleased with the reactions that Wang Xiong and Ye Jin showed him. He felt his vanity being satisfied with a little and wondered if there was time for some reward now.

"Wang Xiong." Lin Wu said.

"Yes, Senior!" Wang Xiong replied in a very concise manner.

"While you have gotten a little lost on the task I gave you, I cannot deny your achievements. And for that reason, I believe you are worthy of a reward.

Hearing the word reward made both Wang Xiong and Ye Jin's ears perked up. Though she also wondered if she should escape from here since Lin Wu's presence was being a little too uncomfortable to her.

Wang Xiong could only anticipate the reward that he was about to get.
