Rise Of The Worm Sovereign

Chapter 901 Shirong's Opposition



The meeting between the Dark Plains sect higher ups went on for three hours before a consensus was reached.

The final agreement was to send a formal request to the Chan sect for collaboration, as well as the full exchange of information about the calamity. The thought that most elders had was that there was no way information about such a strong being would not be recorded.

This was the same thought that the lords of the Tieba city had and they were currently in the process of finding such information as well.

Lin Wu had returned to Tieba city's underground tunnels after his excursion to the Peony plains kingdom had had decided to pause his 'attacks' for now.

'This should be enough to get them working. Now I just need to keep them on their toes, whenever they feel like the danger is gone, I shall act.' Lin Mu thought to himself.

"Though… the gains I've had from these are quite good…" Lin Wu said as he stared at the number in front of him.

~DING~

——

AVATAR CULTIVATION BASE: Shell Completion stage of the Dao Shell realm

-Spirit Qi required to upgrade = [68,154,127/????] units (liquid spirit qi)

——

This was a massive amount that would have taken Lin Wu over a year to gather if he cultivated normally. Even his main body only had a greater amount than this due to the fact that it had not only absorbing spirit Qi but also consuming the many spirit fruits and herbs provided by the 'allies'.

"If it was possible, I'd like to switch this up with my main body too…" Lin Wu said with a hint of desire.

But he knew for his plan to go well, it was essential to not let a hint of his involvement get out.

'Though it shouldn't be long before my main body has some big gains too… the other sides should soon come around.' Lin Wu thought to himself with a smile.

Far from the Tieba city, to the very north of the Long continent, there existed a hidden mountain range.

It was shrouded by illusory formation arrays that kept it hidden from the eyes of everyone. Only a few people could figure out that this existed here and even fewer could even approach it.

In the center of this mountain range, there existed the Ji clan. And currently, an argument was ongoing in one of the many buildings of the clan.

~CRASH~

The sound of precious celadon breaking could be heard and waves of spirit Qi accompanied it.

"ENOUGH! I shall not take anymore of your accusations." Ji Xiaolian shouted.

"Accusations? I have proof, dear sister." Shirong said with a smirk.

~thud~

He threw out a glass orb that fell on the ground in front of Ji Xiaolian.

~shua~

In the next moment, it started to glow, and a burst of runes flew out of it. The runes turned into an illusory screen in the air and images started appearing on them. The images showed none other than Ji Xiaolian herself.

"Fake! This is all fabricated!" Ji Xiaolian shouted and waved her hand.

~SHATTER~

The glass orb crumbled into fragments as the images in the air disappeared as well.

"Aahaha! That is of no use. I have plenty more." Shirong taunted before taking out three more glass orbs.

"You!…" Ji Xiaolian was infuriated.

She clenched her fist and wanted nothing more but to pulverize her brother but had to hold back.

"Good. Seems like you still know to act in moderation." Shirong said in a mocking tone. "Unlike the time when you used Nian Yue sect to hypnotize me." He added in a cold voice.

"Humph! That was nothing. It doesn't go against the clan rules as long as I don't harm you physically." Ji Xiaolian replied, trying to keep up her demeanor.

"Oh? Is that so?" Shirong smiled lightly, sending shivers down Ji Xiaolian's spine.

~shua~

Spirit Qi fluctuations started to come out of Shirong's body and increased in intensity. First they were only at the nascent soul realm, but then they exceeded that level, reaching the Dao Shell realm.

"How's this possible!?" Ji Xiaolian was shocked.

"Why? You think I was just passing my time idly in seclusion? Did you think I didn't act against you just because I was in seclusion?" Shirong replied.

"How can you reach the Dao Shell realm this fast? Even with our clans' resources, it shouldn't be possible! Even Father didn't reach it at your age." Ji Xiaolian felt like all the information she had gathered was wrong.

"Ah~ That's where you are wrong dear sister. I never used our clan's resources for this. Well other than some information and knowledge, I didn't use any actual cultivation resources." Shirong corrected.

And while Shirong said this, the spirit Qi fluctuations coming from him only kept on getting stronger. At first he was only at the Shell Initiation stage, but now it could be sensed that he was at the Shell Genesis stage!

"You… what did you do? How can you do this?!" Ji Xiaolian couldn't wrap her mind around this.

Even with unlimited resources, it should have been impossible for Shirong to accomplish this. It wasn't even an issue of cultivation resources, but rather of being able to utilizing them.

For example, even if one had a literal mountain of spirit stones, they wouldn't be able to reach the Dao Treading realm instantly. Sure, they might progress though the Qi refining realm, core condensation realm quickly, but the further they went, the slower the process would be.

Thus, even if Shirong had the resources, there was no way for him to increase his cultivation base this quickly.

"Let's just say I had some extra help in this aspect." Shirong said with a smile and raised his fist.

~BOOM~

The roof was directly blown up and the clear sky above could now be seen.

"What do you think you are doing!? Do you think the clan will allow you to do as you please?" Ji Xiaolian yelled.

"That's exactly what I want to see." Shirong said, his face turning dark.
