Rise Of The Worm Sovereign

Chapter 1091 Facing The Archnemesis

The Beam of energy lit up the hole as it reached the bottom in an instant. 

The hole was nearly a kilometer deep and Lin Wu finally saw what was its bottom. But that was only for a moment, as the energy beam struck the beast and exploded.

~KABOOM~

A blinding explosion filled the entirety of the Bale Dread Valley. Its power was massive, so much so that the ice dome started to crack, while all the Yellow Bale Melt crystals shattered!

~KIIIII~

Tim who was waiting outside was also blown away by the explosive wave. Though thankfully it wasn't enough to injure him. Not only was the explosion dulled by the ice dome, but the beast was also tough enough to take it.

The explosion lasted for about ten seconds, after which the light finally died down.

But even after that, the area continued to glow, for it had been turned into a molten lava field!

"Wakey! Wakey! BITCH!" Lin Wu shouted. "I've been looking for you for years!"

~GIRIRIIRIRIR~

A strange cry was heard before movement was felt.

~WHOOSH~

Then in the next moment, Lin Wu saw a creature rising from the molten lava lake. 

The Creature was as big as Lin Wu and was just as terrifying in looks as his Avatar.

"Man, you're one ugly motherfucker!" Lin Wu couldn't help but say. "I forfeit the award of the Ugliest creature ever to you." He taunted as the beast grew furious.

The beast in question was an amalgamation of several different creatures.

Its upper body was bulkier than the rest of its body and had three different pairs of limbs on it. The first pair looked like that of a crab's pincers, the second pair looked like sharp claws a mantis would have, while the third pair were long and slender like that of a scorpion's pincers.

Below the three pairs of limbs, it had long spider like limbs that were spiked at the end. There were ten such legs and below that its body narrowed down before turning into a long centipede like shape. And at the end of this, there was a long barbed stinger, that was dripping with venom.

The beast's head didn't have a proper head, and one could only see thirty eyes on the top of its body that were attached to individual tentacles.

Below these eye-tentacles was its mouth that had sharp teeth similar to Lin Wu's avatar and also had a pair of tusks along with a long tongue that seemed to also function as a proboscis.

The beast's entire body was covered in a tough carapace that was similar to that of Lin Wu's organic form, but yellow and green glowing patterns also flowed through it. And between the joints and segments of the unknown beast, one could see throbbing red flesh.

Lin Wu's surprise attack seemed to have done a number on the beast, as its body was covered in several injuries. Greenish yellow blood dripped from its wounds and caused the ground to sizzle wherever it fell.

~GIRIIIIIIIII~

The unknown beast cried out in fury and rushed at Lin Wu. Radiation poured out of its body, while flames and wind covered its crab like pincers.

"Seems like we developed similar skills, huh." Lin Wu had a hunch about this, but now it was confirmed. "BUT YOU'RE STILL LACKING!" The worm retaliated.

Lin Wu's tail transformed into a long blade and was coated with thunder, fire and wind elemental spirit Qi. And if that was not enough, Lin Wu also added Sapphire Qi to increase its piercing power, while releasing his venom from points in the blade too.

~CLANG~

Lin Wu's tail and the two crab like pincers of the beast met, causing a shockwave to be created.

~BOOM~

The lava under them was pushed apart, as a gully formed from their clash.

~SLICK~

But just as they were in a stalemate, the unknown beast opened its mouth and stabbed with its proboscis like tongue!

~CRACK~

And much to Lin Wu's surprise, it actually managed to pierce into his body!

"Ugh! Guess you haven't been slacking either." Lin Wu said as he tried to push the proboscises out of the side of his head. 

~WARNING~

——

NOTIFICATION: Unknown venom has been detected! The host does not have immunity to it!

——

Seeing the notification, Lin Wu knew this was going to be his strongest adversary. His immunity to poison was now being matched with a stronger poison.

~SHING~

Still, Lin Wu ejected several razor sharp shards from his neck, which forced the proboscis of the unknown beast out.

~DENG~DENG~DENG~

The Unknown beast wasn't going to back down from that either, and used its tail with a barbed stinger to attack Lin Wu. The stinger poked at Lin Wu's body, leaving holes and cracks in it.

~CRACK~CRACK~CRACK~

"ENOUGH!" Lin Wu blasted the beast back with a beam of Lightning and Fire Qi, allowing him to put some distance between them.

Lin Wu wished to take this chance to reassess his situation, but was shocked by a presence appearing behind him.

"Wha—" Before Lin Wu could even speak, two sharp claws struck him from the back.

~BOOM~

Lin Wu was sent crashing down into the lava. 

~DING~

——

NOTIFICATION: Spatial Fluctuations detected!

WARNING: The target is utilizing spatial teleportation!

——

"Dammit…" Lin Wu gritted his teeth, as a long crack appeared in his crystalline body. "Initiate recovery!" he ordered.

~DING~

——

RECOVERY: Restricted!

WARNING: Poison in the Host's body is preventing regeneration and healing!

——

"Shit… it only gets worse." Lin Wu looked at his body, which was leaking energy from the cracks.

~slick~

Lin Wu partially changed his body into an organic one, as it offered him better control over particular parts.

He then used Chimeric Organogenesis to create patches of skin that would cover the wounds and then created new armor over them to prevent them from getting hit again.

His form now looked like a mix of crystals and flesh, completely unlike what he had shown before.
