Rise Of The Worm Sovereign

Chapter 715 – The Beasts Vs The Supreme Elder

~BOOM~

Explosions continued to happen as the Supreme Elder attacked Lin Wu non stop. Lin Wu too, kept on dodging them while also making his way to the Frozen Brook Division.

"Fuck, this man is getting only faster." Lin Wu cursed.

He couldn't fly to the Frozen brook division directly either, as he was sure that the Supreme Elder might get suspicious about it. Thus, he had to pretend as if he was still fighting the man and weave around it.

But this didn't come with its drawbacks either. Lin Wu still ended up suffering from some attacks.

While he could indeed heal from them, there was still the foreign ice elemental spirit Qi that penetrated his body and entered his meridians, slowing down the speed of his Dao Shell forming even more.

'I should have put as much spirit Qi into the Dao Shell from the start instead of leaving it for last. I made a mistake!' Lin Wu regretted.

Though Lin Wu couldn't blame himself or the system for it either, since it was something completely new for both of them. Neither of them knew that they would encounter someone like the Supreme Elder who could slow down and even block his meridians.

Not to mention the fact that he had never needed so much time to breakthrough. This was not the first time Lin Wu was trying to breakthrough in the middle of the battlefield after all.

Thus, he thought that it would be the same.

'At least I now know not to make this mistake in the future… if I get out of this.' Lin Wu thought to himself.

"You beast! Stay in one place and die!" the Supreme Elder shouted.

He was getting irritated by Lin Wu's constant movement. He had already tried to use his stronger attacks, but they would all take longer time periods to get ready and Lin Wu would get away in that time.

Thus, he too had to act accordingly and used the other skill of his that were fast but didn't deal as much damage.

'At least his body is not fully immune from my Spirit Chilling Frost.' The Supreme Elder thought to himself.

Lin Wu was certainly an enigma to the man and he couldn't help but wonder where such a beast had come out from. And it was an even greater mystery such as to why it would attack the Frozen Cloud sect.

This was something that would be considered absurd in most cases. The number of times a sect has been assaulted to this extent by a beast could be counted on one hand. Especially for a top ten sects of the Long continent. 

The Supreme Elder could only imagine the loss of face they would face after this. 

'Dammit, our ranking will greatly fall as well.' The Supreme Elder realized.

This only made him more enraged, and he increased the intensity of his attacks. At the same time, he looked around the devastation in the sect and was filled with sorrow.

'All that effort, hundreds of years of work… all gone… I'll kill this beast!' The Supreme Elder thought to himself with determination.

But just as he was thinking this, he suddenly found himself being forced to close his eyes.

"Ugh!" The Supreme Elder help up his hand to block the light that was blinding him.

~ROAR~

The roar of a beast was heard echoing in the area as more spirit Qi fluctuation became apparent to the Supreme Elder.

"What?!" The Supreme Elder was shocked.

He suddenly found one more spirit Qi signature that was no weaker than Lin Wu appearing in his field of perception. And from the roar, he could tell that it was a beast too.

~THWACK~

"Haha! Got you!" Lin Wu said as he slapped the Supreme Elder away.

"What did you get into?" The Twin Lights Liger King asked.

He was the one who had used his innate bloodline skill to blind the supreme elder temporarily. It had given Lin Wu the chance to attack the old man and buy him some more time.

"That's the Supreme Elder I told you about. I want you and Tim to do hold him back." Lin Wu spoke.

"Hold him back? That man is at the Dao Treading realm!" The Twin Lights Liger King was shocked by Lin Wu's words.

"I know that. I don't want you two to hold him back forever, just for a little while. Give me just five more minutes and I'll end him myself." Lin Wu explained.

"Five minutes?" The Twin Lights liger king seemed hesitant.

With the original plan that they had made, the Twin Lights Liger King and Tim were supposed to handle the weaker disciples of the Frozen Cloud sect and Lin Wu would be the one handling the ones that were Dao Shell realm or stronger.

But now the Twin Lights Liger King didn't know if he could do something like this. Even if he was rather strong for a Dao Shell realm beast, he still knew his limits. Besides, they couldn't exactly tell how strong the Supreme Elder was.

Telling the stage of a Dao Treading realm cultivator was a difficult thing and unless their Dao Embryo appeared it would be close to impossible to estimate. This was due to the fact that their cultivation base was not based on their spirit Qi anymore, but rather their comprehension.

"Just do it, I know you are capable." Lin Wu spoke. "Tim! Wait, where is he?" he asked.

"He should be nearby. The last I saw him, he was eating the corpses." The Twin Lights liger King spoke.

"Dammit." Lin Wu looked around for Tim and found his marker on the other side of the barrier.

"Why the hell are you inside?" Lin Wu asked out loud.

~Kii~

Tim's startled cry could be heard coming from some distance away. It was obvious that he had heard Lin Wu and from his tone could tell that Lin Wu was not happy with him.

"Tim I swear, come here right now or no snacks for you!" Lin Wu ordered.

~KIIIIII!!!!~

~WHOOSH~

The sound of the barrier flickering could be heard as the figure of Tim quickly appeared from it. He broke through the barrier as if it was nothing and stood in front of Lin Wu in attention.

Tim: o_o

"Okay, now I want you to kill." Lin Wu spoke.

"Kill? What?" Tim asked.

~RUMBLE~

And just as he said that, the sound of thunder could be heard.

~Crackle~ Crackle~ Crackle~ 

But if one looked up at the sky, they would realize that it was not thunder that was making the sound, but rather something entirely different.

"ALL YOU BEASTS WILL DIE!!!!" The Supreme Elder yelled.

His hands were extended above his head and copious amounts of ice elemental spirit Qi was coming out of them. The ice elemental spirit Qi gathered into a large ball of ice above him that kept on expanding.

The ice ball turned into an ice chunk and then into a large ice block. But even then, it showed no signs of stopping.

"Fuck! It's that skill." Lin Wu remembered,

This was the same skill Wang Xiong had used in the trials of the Taiji Celestial long back. Lin Wu knew about its effects very well and how powerful it was.

'When Wang Xiong used it, he was barely at the core condensation realm and his skills were not that good either. If it is used by the Supreme Elder who is far more experienced and is even at the Dao Treading realm, who knows what kind of an effect it will be.' Lin Wu understood.

The snow kept on falling as well, and the rate of its falling increased as well. Lin Wu and the Twin Lights Liger King soon realized another fact.

"Is it just me or is the cold air making it hard to control spirit Qi?" The Twin Lights Liger King questioned, as cold sweat appeared on his head.

"No… you're not alone. It's being done by the supreme elder. This is his ability. It slows down your control and flow of spirit Qi." Lin Wu answered.

"Dammit! That is not something I can fight against." The Twin Lights Liger King spoke.

"You need to. Just long enough for me to be ready, then I'll get rid of him. Even if you are injured it will be fine, I can heal you all." Lin Wu said with confidence.

The Twin Lights Liger King gritted his teeth, feeling conflicted about it. But in the end, he could only sigh to himself and accept the choice. He was after all, the subordinate of Lin Wu and Lin Wu was his king.

"Food?" Tim suddenly spoke.

"Huh?" Lin Wu looked at Tim who's expression was different 

Tim: *_* 

It was as if there were star's in his eyes as the Weasel stared at the large mass of ice that was forming in the sky.

"FOOD!" Tim shouted.

An idea appeared in Lin Wu's mind as he spoke, "yeah! That's food Tim! Go get it! Eat eat! Eat that man too, if you want to!" 

~KREEE!!!!!~

Tim let out a fearless battle cry filled with excitement as he charged into the sky.

Lin Wu the looked at the Twin Lights Liger king.

"Aren't you ashamed? Even a child is braver than you." Lin Wu teased.

'Fuck you! That's not being brave. That child is retarded!' The Twin Lights Liger King cursed in his mind, but didn't say it out loud.

~Sigh~

Letting out one last sigh, he too flew up into the sky.
