Rise Of The Worm Sovereign

Tian Han was finally feeling that his plan was coming to a fruition. His preemptive trap, set a few months ago was finally working. He had not even intended this to be for Tian Chu but for anyone that he did not want to obstruct his path.

He would have found a way to bring them here and then let them be killed by the beast. It was a relatively simple trap, but needed some really good support. If not, the barrier that needed a very proficient formation master to create, just the Crocodile Head wolf was enough of a challenge.

That was a beast which could not be controlled and Tian Han could only fool its senses to avoid it from attacking him. Though he still had reserve methods to escape in case something problematic happened and his plan failed.

He knew how to choose his allies and how to eliminate his foes. And that was exactly what he had done here. 

Unfortunately for him, his plan was about to flip on its head very soon.

~ROAR~

The crocodile head wolf opened its jaws wide and surrounded Tian Chu's body with them. A glint of pleasure appeared in Tian Han's eyes as he saw the despair on the face of Tian Chu, but that pleasure froze when the beast froze.

~SLICK~

~SHING~

Three crystal spikes shot out of the ground; two of them stopped the jaws of the crocodile head wolf from closing, while the final one pierced through the body of the beast. Even though the fur and skin of the beast was tough and resistant to many attacks, this was not one that could be blocked.

~HISS~

The beast hissed in pain, unable to roar anymore since its jaw was propped open by the two crystal spikes. The spikes stopped them from closing or even opening wide as they directly sprouted more spikes from their sides that directly pierced though the two ends of the jaw.

~drip~ drip~

Blood spilled from the beast's jaw, drenching Tian Chu who was in the middle. Her eyes were left wide open as she stared at the death, which had just been halted in its place.

~RUMBLE~

But that was just the start, as the entire area started to shake. Tian Han finally grabbed hold of his mind and floated up on a spirit sword, avoiding any tree or bamboo that might fall on him.

~Thud~ thud~

~Crash~

Various trees and the Fragrant parrot Bamboos fell to the ground as the soil started to rise.

"What is this?" Tian Han couldn't help but question.

Tian Chu was having the same thought and saw as a wall of crystal started to rise from the ground surrounding her. Her head moved as she took in the view of the being that was appearing. 

It was massive and seemed to be made out of emerald colored crystals. She could tell that it was a living being rather than something like a skill or spirit too because the vitality was very apparent to her.

"A beast? No… it can't be one…" Tian Chu muttered under her breath.

Tian Han's pupils reduced to a pinpoint as alarm bells started to ring. 

~humm~

The metal plate he was holding in his hand started to buzz like crazy, prompting him to take a look at it. But the moment he saw it, a bead of sweat dripped from the side of his face.

"Dao Shell Realm? Impossible!" Tian Han said upon seeing the massive sized circle on the plate.

~TREMBLE~

The ground kept on shaking as Lin Wu's entire body finally left it. It was then that Tian Chu realized it wasn't exactly walls that were rising, but rather the coiled body of a beast.

Lin Wu's crimson red eyes gazed upon the three beings in front of him. The Crocodile head Wolf shivered in its place, unable to move due to the spikes restraining it. Tian Chu trembled as she saw a powerful presence staring at her. 

Just the gaze was enough to soften the bones in her body and she was forced to avert her gaze.

'You'll die! You'll die! You'll die if you look!' Tian Chu's heart shouted at her.

Lin Wu who saw this, thought to himself, 'she'll need a little more training, her mentality is weak… but she's a good test subject.'

He then turned his gaze towards the third and final party, Tian Han. 

"What in the name of heavens…?" Tian Han gasped.

Unlike Tian Chu, he had a stronger will power and did not cower from Lin Wu's gaze, which earned slight approval from him.

'He's a bit like Shirong. He has the ambition, but lacks the same talent or smartness…' Lin Wu assessed.

~Crack~

Lin Wu's mouth opened into what could only be called a cruel smile. The fangs and canines were prominently displayed and added another fearsome factor into the intimidating look.

"Greetings," Lin Wu's voice echoed in the ears of the two humans.

~thud~

Tian Chu fell to the ground upon hearing it. Not because she hadn't expected it, but because it sounded far too human to her. 

Tian Han has the same astonishment and gave rise to a few ideas in his mind. He hid his left hand behind him and made certain hand seals.

~SHUA~

The barrier that was in front of him changed color and became far more corporeal. 

~woong~

It then started to shrink inwards, trying to restrain Lin Wu who was there.

"My, my… someone is really brave." Lin Wu said as he saw Tian Han acting, despite the fear that was pressuring him.

"NO!" Tian Chu yelped upon seeing the shrinking barrier. 

She knew what it meant and that it could kill very strong cultivators, reducing them to a mix of ground bones and flesh. She had once seen the elders use that to trap a group of Nascent soul realm beasts, when a beast horde had occurred.

The barrier had not only managed to stop them, but had even killed them all.
