Rise Of The Worm Sovereign

Shirong felt a stinging pain in his eyes as his vision turned to white. He became dazed by the innate ability of the Lamp Light Ligers. 

"Dammit!" Shirong cursed out loud as he covered his eyes with his left arm.

~Roar~

The Lamp Light Ligers took this opportunity and finally attacked Shirong.

~slash~

~cut~

Shirong blindly swung the long sword and cut the Lamp Light Ligers that came near him but was unable to dodge all of them. He used his spirit sense at the very last moment and was able to avoid injury to his vitals. Still, a large claw wound was opened from the top of his shoulder all the way to his waist. 

Along with this, there were smaller scratches that were on his arms and legs. With the combined attack of over ten Lamp Light Ligers, he barely protected his head and neck. The long sword's reach was the only thing that was keeping the Lamp Light Ligers from attacking again.

They had to retreat after attacking immediately or they would have been chopped in half from the sharp long sword. While Shirong could use his spirit sense to observe the area, due to the properties of the Innate skill of the Lamp Light Ligers, even his spirit sense felt unstable.

It took him all of his Will owe to control it and even then it was putting a big load on his mind. Shirong had not expected that the Blinding Lamp Flare skill of the Lamp Light Ligers would be this strong.

'No wonder their king was able to become the strongest beast of the millennium forest. With an innate skill like this, most cultivators and beast would be incapacitated and killed swiftly.' Shirong thought.

He had known about the Twin Lights Liger that lived at the sixth ring of the millennium forest and knew that it was the strongest spirit beast of the forest being the very peak of Nascent soul realm. Even his clan had records about the Twin light Liger and knew that the beast had been living here for the past five hundred years.

Lin Wu right now was anxious and was trying to figure out the flaws of the plan. He knew there were many in the one that he had made, but it was the best he could do right now. With Shirong's vision gone for the time being, there was a great chance that he would be killed by these Lamp Light Ligers.

"This is it! The moment of decision, I can't hesitate anymore!" Lin Wu said with determination.

He scanned the area and ensured that he had taken note of everything before starting his plan.

"System, upgrade my cultivation base to the next stage!" Lin Wu ordered.

~Ding~

UPGRADING HOST'S CULTIVATION BASE: Please wait patiently.

Shirong suddenly felt the long sword heating up in his hand and let go of it involuntarily. He was able to observe it with his spirit sense for a moment before he felt like his spirit sense would get destroyed if he kept on observing the Immortal Crystal armament.

'Is another one of its seals being released?' Shirong wondered.

He didn't know if he had fulfilled any condition that was required to release the next seal, but now it was happening in front of him. Though he did not know if this would be good or not as the last time it had knocked him out and also the Deer wood city's people.

Shirong definitely did not want to lose consciousness in the middle of the Fifth ring of Millennium Forest like this, as he knew it would be a death sentence. Even if these beasts were scared off by the Immortal Crystal armament, more would take their place.

The Lamp Light Ligers on the other hand were now feeling fear all of a sudden.

~Grrr~

"What is happening?" one of the Lamp Light Ligers questioned.

"That weapon! It is doing something!" The bigger Lamp Light Liger said.

All of the Lamp Light Ligers looked towards the long sword that was pierced into the ground. Waves of spirit qi started rolling off the long sword as the area started to heat up.

"Let's see how you like this!" Lin Wu said as he absorbed all the spirit qi that was around him.

~Shua~

The radiation emitting from his body started spreading into the surroundings as the Lamp Light Ligers began to feel hot. But Shirong was unaffected as Lin Mu was avoiding him intentionally. Besides, he couldn't see him for the time being anyway, and even his spirit sense was restricted greatly.

~Whirr~

Now Lin Wu's body started glowing with a bright green light that spread in the surroundings. The Lamp Light Ligers though were immune to the Bright light and were able to keep on looking despite it. Their innate skill Blinding Lamp Flare gave them immunity to light based skills that could affect their eyes.

~Growl~

"Why is it so hot all of a sudden?" The Lamp Light Ligers spoke in distress,

Their fur was rather thick, and the heat had only made it that much worse for them. The heat they were feeling was also quite different, it didn't seem like their body was heating from the outside, but rather from the inside.

Their fur was acting like an insulator and keeping the heat coming from their bodies from escaping.

"AARGH! I can't take this anymore!" One of the Lamp Light Ligers cried and retreated.

But before it could take more than three steps, it froze. Not only that Lamp Light Liger, but all of the others did too.

"This…"

"What overwhelming bloodline!" The leader Lamp Light Liger realized.

~Ding~
