Rise Of The Worm Sovereign

Unaware that the elders of the Frozen Cliff Division had started their actions, Lin Wu and his two subordinates made their way towards them. 

~tremble~

Faint tremors could be felt coming from the ground, but by the time they reached the surface, they were mostly gone. This in combination with the chaos that was happening in the sky was enough to make everyone miss it.

Lin Wu continued to dig and make the tunnel while the Twin Lights Liger King and Tim followed behind him. 

"Just a little more…" Lin Wu muttered as he observed the map.

The system was showing the navigation HUD, which allowed Lin Wu to quickly fight the right path. This was all decided according to the intel that Tian Han and Tian Chu had given him before and then the system had scanned the sect again to get updated information.

As a sunrise to Lin Wu, there really were a lot of areas that were unable to be scanned by the system. These areas were under the protection of certain formation arrays that made barriers around them.

One of these areas was none other than the one protecting the Frozen Brook division's territory. Their territory was composed of several peaks, including the main peak of the entire sect.

It was the peak where the sect patriarch's residence and the grand hall of the sect was located. This was also why the Frozen Cliff Division wanted access to it. There were a lot of valuable items there including things that they would need to prove their legitimacy.

Without them, they won't be able to succeed in the end, even if the patriarch never appeared.

The second area was the peak where Yun Bai was being restrained. It was none other than his own peak, and the elders of the Frozen Cliff division had sealed him inside. 

'The founder of the Frozen Cloud sect definitely didn't trust Yun Bai, since he kept a seal like that. It was made specially to contain him once he himself was gone. It was to let his descendants to control Yun Bai if he ever revolted against them.

Still… that didn't happen, and these people found out about it.' Lin Wu thought to himself, deciding to take a look at the formation since it might be something that the system could benefit from.

After all, there weren't many formations that would be able to restrain cultivator at the peak of the shell expansion stage of the Dao Shell realm. That too, someone as long lived and experienced as Yun Bai.

If it were any other seal, the man would have been able to find a way to break through it. But now he was helpless and could only wait to be rescued. Though he didn't even know that help was coming.

If it were not for Wang Xiong's quick actions, he would have still not been able to do anything and it would have been a little too late.

A few minutes later, Lin Wu finally reached his chosen locations.

"Alright system, do a scan again." Lin Wu ordered.

They needed to see if the people of the Frozen Cliff division were gone or not. Lin Wu needed for at least half of them to be gone or be divided. Once that happened, he would be able to attack.

~DING~

——

SCANNER: Activated 

SCAN COMPLETED: Map updated

NOTIFICATION: Targets have moved to the intended locations as predicted

——

"Perfect!" Lin Wu said as he saw the change on the map.

A lot more markers had appeared on the map, possibly from the Frozen Cliff Division, though there might have been some from the Frozen Plains division as well. According to the plan, Lin Wu was supposed to kill those of the Frozen Cliff division, but he wasn't restricted to kill those from the Frozen Plains division.

After all, there was a great chance they would attack him, since he would be killing the others. Lin Wu was a large and terrifying beast for most, humans would fear him by default and attacking him could be considered normal.

"Is it time?" The Twin Lights Liger King questioned, feeling the sudden increase in spirit Qi fluctuations coming from the surface.

"Yes, it is time!" Lin Wu said as he quickly started to move up.

~TREMBLE~

The ground started to shake and the people nearby felt it clearly this time.

"W-what's happening?" One of the disciples posted nearby couldn't help but questions.

"An earthquake? How can one happen within the sect?" another one wondered.

"Could it be due to the anomaly there?" A guard disciple spoke, pointing to the dark clouds that were gathered in the distance.

There were arcs of lightning spreading across the clouds, and thunderclaps could be heard all around the sect.

"Wait… is that a heavenly tribulation? Who's breaking through at this time?" The first disciple questioned, finding it strange.

"I don't think we were informed of this happening. It seems to be in the abandoned territory of the Frozen Brook division too… could it be someone from their side?" 

"That would be unusual—" But before the disciple could finish his sentence, the ground suddenly burst open.

~BOOM~

Even though the disciples were standing away from where the ground had burst open, it was still enough to knock them down. After all… these were just the lower members of the Frozen Cliff division and were only at the Qi refining realm.

"ARGH!"

"MY BACK!" 

The disciples were injured just from this and suffered multiple injuries. The stone bricks and soil pelted their bodies.

~SHUA~

A green glowing light appeared from the large hole that had opened up and it was as if a large pillar rose up from it.

"Oh? What have we here? A few small disciples…" Lin Wu said as he observed the knocked down disciples.

His large body was enough to make a few disciples faint just from a look while the others trembled non stop.

"What in the name of heavens…"

"M… Mo… MONSTER!!!!" A disciple finally shouted.
