Rise Of The Worm Sovereign

Chapter 927 6000 Years Of Lifespan



Lin Wu had realized that at the 20 meter mark the increase in power he got had reached a plateau. Even if he expanded it beyond this, there would be no more gains. The main point of having a larger Dao shell was to have a better chance at accommodating a Dao Embryo.

The stronger Dao Embryo's were often bigger in size and could grow further in the Dao Treading realm too. If one didn't have a sufficiently large Dao Shell, they wouldn't be able to unearth the true potential of their Dao Embryo thereby making them weaker than their peers.

Such was the common understanding among the cultivators in many worlds.

Lin Wu thought so too and went for the maximum expansion of the Dao shell. Even when he felt the diminishing growth rate at the ten meter mark he didn't stop. He wanted to see if he could exceed the limits and find something new.

Other's didn't have the support of the system or the massive supply of resources that Lin Wu now had. Even reaching the five meter size Dao Shell was considered a great achievement not to mention going past that.

A majority of cultivators reached bottleneck right there and needed hundreds of years to expand their Dao Shells by even a few centimeters. Only someone like Lin Wu could do this in less than a decades time.

Upon discovering the cap at the 20 meter mark, Lin Wu reckoned he had to take another route. Thus he started to expand his other Dao shell. It was the Dao Shell that had automatically formed under the influence of the second Nascent soul.

The source of that Dao shell was from the unknown bloodline and it had actually expanded a little on its own too.

In fact it had reached the five meter mark automatically without Lin Wu's effort.

He thus decided to put more spirit qi into expanding it and ended up expanding it all the way to the twenty meter mark. And once again, he reached the same conclusion.

A Dao Shell at the twenty meter would indeed reach a cap. Growing it past that was indeed possible, but one would not gain any power from it. It would merely be a change in the physical appearance.

"Though it was not all without benefit… My lifespans has increased once more." Lin Wu said while his eyes stayed on the Host Data.

His lifespan had increased by two thousand years while technically staying in the same cultivation realm. All this only made him confirm that the second Nascent soul from the unknown bloodline did contribute a lot to his lifespan.

"Well… can't complain about that. More lifespan is always good." Lin Wu chuckled.

"What matters more is how I use that lifespan… and I want to keep on growing it." Lin Wu said in a low voice while his eyes trailed to another window that had always been floating on the side.

This window was smaller than other windows and on it only a string of numbers was displayed. It was a countdown.

<strong>[23 hours, 12 minutes, 15 seconds…]</strong>

"Just a little under a day till the wedding." Lin Wu felt a little excited.

The wedding was none other than that of Wang Xiong. It had been delayed quite a few times by now, first due to the Frozen Cloud sect, second time due to the Calamity Fiend in the south along with the blight and the third time due to the internal conflict of the Cang Lan sect itself.

But now all that had been resolved and the wedding was about to happen.

Though the reason for Lin Wu's excitement wasn't because of Wang Xiong, but rather the event that would be happening during the wedding.

"I'll finally get to do a proper action scene, ahh~" Lin Wu smiled widely. "It'll be a fun day. System don't forget to record everyone's expressions." He reminded.

"Affirmative." The system responded plainly.

Lin Wu started to hum a song and went through a long list of notifications he had not checked due to cultivating. Since most of them weren't important, the system had sorted them into a separate section.

In it, Lin Wu saw several messages and updates about various parts of the continent.

For example in the south,

The Calamity Fiend didn't feel as terrifying to the powers of the south now that the Millennium Forest's army was protecting them.

The Tieba city had a change in the ruling lords recently and half of the older lords had perished. The cause of this was unknown but many thought it to be internal conflict.

And in the north,

The Lian clan had grown richer once more having expanded their business due to collaborations with the Millennium Forest kingdom. The Patriarch of the Lian clan was also said to be getting stronger but no one knew why.

The First heir of the Lian clan had also solidified his position in the clan, becoming the owner of over two hundred shops all over the Long Continent bringing in a massive revenue.

Even an elder of the Lian clan, Elder Kai Li had become very rich and influential. So much so that, some caller her the merchant queen.

p The second ranked clan of the Long Continent, the Ji clan wasn't behind either.

After experiencing an internal massacre in which the heir of the clan, Ji Shirong slaughtered most of his siblings many had thought that the clan's status would fall. But that didn't happen. Instead, Ji Shirong now ruled the clan with an iron fist.

He was unofficially the patriarch and was tacitly given approval by the ruling patriarch Ji Shan who had retreated from the main scene of the clan. While many found it strange, they simply guessed that it was to give Shirong more freedom.

And it wasn't like Shirong was lacking in personal strength either, having reached the Dao Shell realm before the age of fifty!

It was simply unthinkable to the majority of the Long continent and even caught the attention of the Long Clan elders.
