Rise Of The Worm Sovereign

Only the former rulers of the millennium forest could sense the change in the Tomb.

"This… what is Lin Wu doing?" The Twin Lights Liger King woke up from his slumber.

He was still in recovery but had been woken up due to the bloodline chains that linked him with the seal of the tomb. The other rulers sensed it too, but didn't fully wake up, merely grunting in pain.

Thankfully, the pain only lasted a few seconds and faded away once the system was done with its task.

Back at the cave where Lin Wu, Lian Dajian and Elder Ruanjian were, the statue formed from runes seemed to be flickering.

"Is this how we're supposed to talk?" Lian Dajian wondered.

The plain features of the statue started to fluctuate and move.

Lin Wu narrowed his eyes and saw that the head of the statue was trying to change and take on a particular shape. He guessed that this was how the owner would talk to the holder of the flute.

But soon enough, the restriction started working and the rune statue flickered.

"Huh?" Lian Dajian and Elder Ruanjian were surprised again.

~HISS~

The sound of static appeared as the music of the flute disappeared. The hissing noise irritated the ears of Lian Dajian and Elder Ruanjian.

~WHOOSH~

Finally, the statue couldn't maintain its form anymore and dissipated into the rune which quickly faded away.

~CRUMBLE~

The two parts of the metal flute also turned to dust and blew away with the breeze.

"T-that… that's it?" Lian Dajian couldn't believe his eyes.

He had become greatly excited seeing that the statue had appeared and was looking forward to talking with his ancestor.

'No… it would have been the ancestor of the founder!' Lian Dajian remembered.

But now… all hope was lost.

"It failed?" Elder Ruanjian said, his voice falling.

"Unfortunate it seems like too much time has passed. As you can see, the flute tried to find its owner but could not. Seems like the owner has either perished to the annals of time or is simply unreachable." Lin Wu stated.

~Sigh~

A common sigh escaped the lips of Lian Dajian and Elder Ruanjian.

"We cannot bend the fates to our will… what is may stay as it is…" Lian Dajian muttered to himself.

"Seems like we have no other choice now, Patriarch." Elder Ruanjian said.

Lina Dajian nodded his head in agreement, accepting the situation. He looked at Lin Wu and didn't know how to speak next. Lin Wu though, knew exactly what the man was thinking and was laughing.

'HAHAHA! IT WORKED!' Lin Wu laughed in his mind.

~DING~

——

NOTIFICATION: Approximate coordinates of the Immortal world have been recorded!

DATA BANKS: Updated.

——

That was exactly what Lin Wu wanted and was pleased that the system had managed to do it successfully.

It wasn't that the system didn't have any information about the immortal worlds in the immortal realm or other mortal worlds. Rather, it was that the system didn't have anything to refer the coordinates with.

It was the same as telling someone to turn left from a tree, but never knew what kind of tree or where the tree was.

Even if they had the coordinates, unless they knew how to read them or where to place them, they were as good as useless. But now, Lin Wu had a gained reference point for it. The flute's resonance link had made a vast link that had been tracked by the system all the way to its end.

Something like this would have been impossible even if Lin Wu had used up all the energy he had. Only by piggybacking off the resonant signal of the metal flute did this become possible.

​ But before Lin Wu could take a look at the location, he decided to address the people at hand.

'Let's get them set first. After I'm done, I'll take my time to learn more about the coordinates,' Lin Wu thought to himself.

While Lin Wu was thinking all this, he had given Lian Dajian enough time to make up his words.

"King Lin Wu, would you help me out the same way you have with my son?" Lian Dajian requested.

"I will… but I cannot give you any guarantee of success." Lin Wu stated plainly. "You must already know that." He added.

"I do indeed. I shall be fine with whatever you decide." Lian Dajian said, cupping his fists.

"Yes! Please help the patriarch, King Lin Wu. The fate of the Lian clan depends on this." Elder Ruanjian said freely.

Both of them knew that it was no use keeping up the facades at this point. They had also seen Lin Wu properly and genially cooperating with them. This was enough to ignite a certain level of trust in their minds.

Additionally, the information and knowledge Lin Wu had presented for them was also enough for them to now consider him a great senior. They would have started calling him that already, if not for the fact that Lin Wu already had the title of King.

Thus it was not considered disrespectful anyway.

"Mmhmm… why don't I take you to the place where your son is? You can talk to him and get to know about the process first. It will take me some time to adjust the entire thing according to your levels as well." Lin Wu suggested.

"That will be fine, King Lin Wu." Lian Dajian said.

~shua~

Lin Wu waved his tail once more and teleported the three of them into the hall where Lian Xiaojian was 'tempering' his body.

~BOOM~

In the hall, Lian Xiaojian was once again blasted back and was sent flying all the way into the wall.

~THUD~

His huge and fat body created a loud sound as it fell to the ground.

"HAA… HAA… Haaa… This… is… just… not… enough…" Lian Xiaojian panted.

Over the years, he had indeed progressed through the hall. And while he was still unable to reach the door, he had still covered around sixty percent of the distance. This was the furthest he had gone before being knocked back.
