Rise Of The Worm Sovereign

Chapter 993 Reaching The Hu Continent



The three colored beam pierced into the Dao Embryo of the Aquadream Ocean lotus, erasing its existence in mere seconds. Faint traces of Dao traces lingered around it as it was being erased by the powerful beam.

The Nascent soul of the Aquadream ocean Lotus couldn't withstand the backlash and was killed as well. And along with that, the life of the Aquadream Ocean Lotus came to and end.

"Haa… HAA…" Lin Wu panted as he gazed at his handwork.

Torn and burned parts of the Aquadream Ocean Lotus were scattered all around him. Some floated on top of the ocean surface while some had started to sink.

Greenish blue blood also stained the water, making it look eerie.

"At least it's dead now…" Lin Wu muttered to himself.

He checked the map for any other dangers before quickly sucking all the water around him into his mouth. This also pulled the torn body parts of the Aquadream Ocean Lotus into his mouth, allowing him to replenish his stores.

It was more than the amount of energy he had expended in the fight and was quickly adding more to his body.

'Need to store a part for the avatar as well…' Lin Wu had kept half of what he had consumed for the avatar.

He hoped to let it breakthrough, or at least progress its Innate Skill, Chimeric Adaptation.

'Perhaps it might allow the Dao Trace compatibility for the water element as well.' Lin Wu thought to himself.

Lin Wu rested for a bit and let his body recover from the injuries that he had sustained. Having a crystalline body meant that he was very durable, but he could still get injured.

The only thing was that the injuries weren't visible as easily. They would often end up accumulating internally and the system would continually repair them.

Only when Lin Wu felt like he was fully recovered did he fly off. His destination was the Hu continent and was not that far now. Lin Wu soared across the sky without stopping while continually scanning the area for anything interesting.

About four hours later he finally saw a very large landmass.

"That should be the Hu continent…" Lin Wu said observing the long rocky coast that was dotted with hundreds of trees.

'I knew there would be something to check for people entering the continent. Especially for the Hu continent which has the Hu clan ruling as the sole power…' Lin Wu thought as he let the system take care of the array.

By keeping a track of who entered the continue, the Hu clan would have an easier time maintaining their hegemony. The system soon finished its work and allowed Lin Wu to enter the borders of the Hu continent.

"Hmm… doesn't feel that different." Lin Wu said as he sensed the different energies and auras in the area.

He had thought that there would be some different kind of a feel to the Hu Continent, but it seems like he was just mistaken.

"Hmm, one of the major geographical difference is that the Hu continent actually has several Volcanoes. I should take a look there since they contain a lot of materials…" Lin Wu thought to himself.

There was another thing that Lin Wu wanted to look for in the Hu continent.

'That beast might be here too… if it is not here then Gui Continent would be the only other option left.' Lin Wu thought to himself.

He would be fine if it were these two entire continents. Lin Wu just hoped that it wasn't hiding in the ocean somewhere.

'Not knowing much about it makes it difficult to estimate where it might go. There is no saying what its behavior is like. Not to mention… with its size and appearance it should have most likely caused quite an uproar if it was seen.' Lin Wu thought to himself.

"Oh? It's done already." Lin Wu looked at the map seeing quite literally over a thousand markers appearing at once.

These were categorized into several types such as strong beasts, spirit herbs, materials, unique places, humans and settlements. Lin Wu just filtered out all the beast below the Dao Shell realm and did the same for the humans.

"That's quite a small number… are there so few strong cultivators here?" Lin Wu said after seeing the filtered results.

The number of Dao Shell realm beasts was barely five and there was just a single Dao Treading realm expert in the area that the system had scanned.

"No Dao Treading realm beasts and No Dao Shell realm human cultivators, hmmm… seems strange." Lin Wu glanced at the map finding that all these markers were actually concentrated on a single location.

"A city… It's relatively big as well." Lin Wu could see a human settlement roughly on the western side of the map.

There were other smaller settlement too but none of them were big enough to catch his attention, only this one city seemed to be the biggest one among them all.

"Well them, let's take a look." Lin Wu dived straight into the ground and drilled hundreds of meters down before making his way to the city.

This was his fastest mode of travel and would allow him to move around stealthily. It also made it so that he could nick all unique beasts he saw on the way for the avatar.

These were weaker beasts, but would certainly contribute to the growth of the Helix of Assimilation.

If anyone saw it, they would see a blur rising from the ground and snatching the beasts. The would disappear into the ground never to be seen and not even a hole would be left behind.

For some people it could even be called as downright terrifying.

The path to the human city was relatively straight and Lin Wu only made detours when he sensed something interesting on the way there. But despite all this, he reached it by the end of the day,
