Rise Of The Worm Sovereign

Lin Wu briefly thought about it all, but knew that this was a long term goal he needed to fulfill.

'It all depends on whether I am able to get out of this world first. If that is possible, I should be able to do the same for them too.' Lin Wu thought to himself.

With that said, he went to the main hall of the Taiji Celestial's tomb and brought Tim along. He needed to have a chat with him as well as see what changes had taken place.

~SHUA~

Two teleportation circles brought them to the main hall, that was currently empty. It had been upgrade once more and now it looked no different from a royal palace. The only thing was that the hall was devoid of anyone else.

And this was its usual state to as Lin Wu mostly stayed in his personal chambers and would be in a state of cultivation. If not that, he would be in the control of his avatar and causing some mayhem in the Hu continent and the Long continent.

The image of the Calamity Fiend had become firm in both the continents and it was now a name synonymous with terror. There was almost no one that hadn't heard of it and knew how powerful it was.

"What are the changes in your body you can tell me about?" Lin Wu decided to take a direct approach first.

It would not only get him information from Tim, but would also allow him to asses the change in the beast's intelligence.

Tim tilted his head and thought over Lin Wu's words before speaking.

"I'm at Dao Treading realm." Tim answered.

"Yes… that was already established. What else?" Lin Wu prodded him on.

"I… have golden fur?" Tim replied, but looking at Lin Wu's face realized it wasn't what he wanted. "I'm bigger?" he said next.

~Sigh~

Lin Wu shook his head knowing that while the beast had grown a bit more intelligent, it still wasn't to the point where he could be considered 'normal'.

"You Dao Embryo. You know what it is?" Lin Wu questioned directly.

"Yes!" Tim nodded his head.

"And how do you know about it?" Lin Wu wanted to know more.

He knew that Dao Embryo's would be known instinctively when one formed them, but there were many variations to this. Plus, there was the fact that the Dao Embryo that Tim had formed was something unusual.

It wasn't its form, but the feeling it gave one. Lin Wu and the system couldn't identify which Dao it belonged to as the Dao Traces around the Embryo were simply unknown to them.

"My Dao Embryo is called as the Unyielding Will Crown." Tim revealed. "I just know about it and information about it appeared in my memory." He added.

"I see… then do you know what it can do?" Lin Wu asked.

"It makes me strong… very strong!" Tim simply stated. 𝐟𝓇ℯ𝒆we𝒃𝘯𝒐νe𝑙.co𝚖

Lin Wu raised a brow but didn't know what to say. Tim's answer wasn't exactly incorrect, but it certainly was vague.

'Guess we won't know until he actually uses it…' Lin Wu thought about taking Tim out for a hunt later. 'But I should still take a closer look…' he glanced at Tim.

"Can you show me your Dao Embryo?" Lin Wu asked. "I want to observe it." He waved a large crystal in front of Tim.

"Okay…" Tim didn't reject it as he saw the crystal that was ready as a snack for him.

"Alright then," Lin Wu tossed the crystal to Tim who quickly started munching on it.

~SHUA~

And while he did that, Lin Wu directly used his spirit sense to probe Tim's body. His spirit sense entered the beast's Dantian and quickly reached the Dao Shell that was floating in the center of it.

Tim's Nascent soul had also changed a bit, having taken on a golden hue. It's aura was also a bit different. It felt familiar to Lin Wu, but he couldn't place his finger as to where he had sensed it before.

'System, do a full scan of Tim.' Lin Wu ordered.

~DING~

——

SCANNER: Activated

TARGET SELECTED: The Myriad Obsidian Weasel, Tim.

SCAN: Completed

NOTIFICATION: Partial Analysis possible.

—

Target: Tim

Cultivation base: Embryo Birth Stage of the Dao Treading Realm

Bloodline: Myriad Obsidian Weasel

Dao Embryo: Unknown

——

Seeing the results of the system, Lin Wu knew that the scan wouldn't work for the Dao Embryo directly.

'Will direct contact work, system?' Lin Wu asked.

~DING~

——

ANSWER: Direct contact with the Dao Embryo might allow the system to do a deeper analysis.

——

'Guess I just need to try that…' Lin Wu thought while ensuring that Tim wasn't resisting.

If he did, there was no saying what kind of problem could occur.

~huu~

"Here goes nothing…" Lin Wu took a deep breath and proceeded.

His spirit sense first touched the Dao Shell of Tim. It was halted by it, but Lin Wu exerted a little power using the Sapphire Qi of the Undaunted Sapphire Body Art. It allowed him the ability to pierce barriers and the Dao Shell was no exception.

With the growth in Lin Wu's cultivation, the Undaunted Sapphire Body Art had also grown and reached a new level. At this point, he could evens apply it to his Spirit sense, allowing it to go past barriers with ease as well.

~SHUA~

As soon as he did that though, the Dao Embryo within the Dao Shell trembled. It sensed Lin Wu's presence and released a pressure.

It slowed down the Spirit sense, but Lin Wu simply used more power and forced his way through. A minute later, it finally reached the Dao Embryo and contact was made.

~HONG~

The moment he did that though, Lin Wu felt the familiar aura again.

~WARNING!~

——

NOTIFICATION: Unknown anomaly has been detected!

——

"SHI—" before Lin Wu could even curse though, he felt his consciousness being pulled away.

He didn't know how much time passed, but when he regained his 'vision' Lin Wu found himself to be in a strange place with swirling colors.
