Rise Of The Worm Sovereign

Lin Wu was currently floating around in a dark space. He was lying completely still so as to not arouse any suspicion from Shirong. The system had already told him that Shirong was observing the inside of the ring with his spirit sense and could do so anytime.

About five minutes passed, after which the system finally gave the green signal to Lin Wu.

~Phew~

'Took him a while, I was almost worried that he was suspicions now.' Lin Wu thought to himself.

"Now then, let's take a look at my gains, Hehe." Lin Wu said with excitement.

"System, show me the host data." Lin Wu ordered.

"Wahahahha!" Lin Wu could not stop laughing with joy upon seeing all the spirit qi that he had obtained.

He had truly not expected that he would be able to obtain such a large amount when he had originally started the plan. He had at most expected about ten percent of the current amount, but this had gone way beyond that. The amount he had right now was enough for him to directly reach the next cultivation realm, and that was exactly what he wanted.

But of course, he could not do that carelessly. Right now he was in a rather complex situation. On one hand, he had plenty of spirit qi and had the potential to gain even more, while on the other hand there was always a chance that he could be found out.

"Hmm, now that I've got the resources I need to plan further. I need to analyze what approach to take or I can end up in great trouble." Lin Wu muttered to himself.

He thought over the possibilities while gently floating in the empty space of the ring. The minor spatial dimension that was continued within the ring was quite large. From what Lin Wu had heard, this ring was a high grade spatial storage ring.

"System, what's the size of this ring?" Lin Wu asked curiously.

~Ding~ 

——

ANSWER: The ring has a storage volume of about fifty cubic meters, though this area is not in any particular shape and is rather fluid.

——

"Fifty cubic meters? Damn, this is bigger than the dorm room I used to live in." Lin Wu said with surprise.

'Though its strange… from the cultivation novels I've read the spatial storage rings have much bigger capacities than this. I've seen the characters store literal mountains in them. This ring is an ant compared to those. Or perhaps… this is how they're supposed to be in this world.' Lin Wu thought to himself.

About half an hour passed while Lin Wu was thinking of what to do next. Meanwhile, Shirong and the two other men, Ye Dai and Bei Wen, were flying towards the border of the forbidden zone. Because they had killed the rest of their companions, they now had to make sure that it was believable. Originally they were going to make it seem more believable by saying that they had encountered a great danger and had injuries. 

But now they did not need to do that. They had the best excuse which was nothing more than their cultivation bases which had regressed. They even had internal injuries, which made it even more believable to the clans that their dead companions belonged to.

In fact, they would be even more sure that they were saying the truth as one would not intentionally dispel their cultivation base just to pretend like that, as the losses would outweigh the gains. But the case with Shirong, Ye Dai and Bei Wen was exceptional.

They had obtained something which any power of this world would want to obtain. They would not blink even if they had to sacrifice millions of cultivators in order to obtain a pseudo immortal tool. That was just how important and precious it was.

Though Shirong now knew that it was even beyond that. He had intentionally not told the other two that the spear was not a pseudo immortal tool but rather an immortal tool. But he still had some apprehensions about the spear.

Even if it was an immortal tool, it did not seem to have the other characteristics that an immortal tool should have. From what he had heard, immortal tools would exude pressure that was unlike anything else, and the fluctuations of qi from them could be felt for thousands of kilometers if they were activated.

Another thing Shirong was sure of was that the spear had taken far too little of spirit qi to work. If it were a common immortal tool from what Shirong had read, they would take up the spirit qi of tens of spirit stone mines and even then would only exert a fraction of their power.

This lead Shirong to think of some of the legends that most cultivators knew of. There were many stories that described how lucky people were able to find trash weapons which were nothing but immortal weapons in disguise. They were either sealed or needed resources to activate.

From seeing the effect and actions of the green Crystal spear, Shirong was not leaning towards the latter. The spear needed to absorb their spirit qi in order to save them; this meant that it was most likely lacking spirit qi. 

'It is more likely to be a sealed immortal weapon. If it was a full-fledged one, I'm sure all the Immortal Ascension realm cultivators of this world would have been here and fighting over it.' Shirong thought.
