Rise Of The Worm Sovereign

961 A Voice Of Unknown

The system's alerts were enough to send Lin Wu into a fighting state. Over hundreds tentacles appeared from his body, all having different kinds of tips. Some being spiked, some having mouths, while some in the shape of spouts.

Spirit Qi swirled around Lin Wu as well, while his aura turned sharper.

"Where is it system?" Lin Wu questioned, unable to see it on the map.

~DING~

ANSWER: Anomaly is not in this plane.

Reading this, Lin Wu narrowed his eyes.

'Did I catch the attention of some hidden expert?' Lin Wu wondered.

For to escape the system while also targeting him from another plane only meant that it was a lot more stronger than him.

"Who?" Lin Wu called out.

For a few seconds, there was no one responding making one think that there was nothing. But the pressure that Lin Wu still felt confirmed that there was indeed someone targeting him.

As for why? He didn't know that yet.

'Luckily I'm in the avatar at this time, I can detonate it and return to the main body.' Lin Wu already initiated the self destruction process.

There was a terrifying amount of energy contained within the Avatar along with an even greater amount of radiation. This was further optimized by the system to ensure that the explosion would rip apart the very space itself.

And the copious amounts of radiation would ensure that even an immortal would be affected by it. Lin Wu had long since known that radiation affected not just spirit Qi but also immortal Qi.

This was the conclusion the system had inferred after years of analysis.

Thus in a battle against someone Lin Wu couldn't win against, he could at least force them to retreat using massive amounts of radiation.

'Though there is a chance it might trigger a nuclear winter… wonder if this world had an ice age before?' Lin Wu thought to himself, not really afraid of the threat.

The avatar gave him the confidence to go against stronger foes as it was essentially a second life for him. Plus, even if it was destroyed, Lin Wu would be able to make one again.

He had more than enough spirit Qi stored up for it anyway. In fact, Lin Wu had kept enough reserve spirit Qi to make around five more avatars. Plus, with the amount of data the system had, he would be able to make the Chimeric Fiend Worm once more.

There would be no loss of his progress either and could be sped through simply by pouring more spirit Qi into it. With no bottleneck, the entire process could even be called rather fast.

But soon Lin Wu was brought out of his thoughts as a voice echoed within his head.

"Someone dares to tread upon my Dao?" The voice spoke.

While it seemed like it was threating, its tone was quite calm forming an antithesis for Lin Wu.

"Who are you?" Lin Wu questioned not seeing the person or being.

"Oh? You don't even know me and still dared to tread on this Dao?" the voice seemed a little surprise.

"What do you want?" Lin Wu asked, not bothering with the voice's words.

Lin Wu did pick up that the voice was interested in the Dao that he was 'treading' upon, which was most likely to be one of the two unknown Daos he had the 100% compatibility with.

"Hmm… since you can do this, let me see if you are qualified to tread on my Dao." The voice replied, disregarding Lin Wu's inquiring. "Oh? The Five mortal and Four heavenly elemental Daos are within the scope of your understand already? Interesting… Sword and Spear Dao as well?" The voice's surprise seemed to be increasing.

This time Lin Wu kept silent, wanting to see just how much the voice could understand about him.

"You have the Beast Dao too? That's unusual, since the Sword and Spear Daos don't really fit with it. The other elemental Dao's can be complementary to it, but not the Beast Dao." The voice continued to observe.

Soon though, its tone changed.

"And this… can it really be that?" The voice now had a hint of excitement and fear to it. "You actually managed to tread upon that Dao as well? AHAHAHA!" The voice laughed out loud.

"You know about my two unknown Daos?" Lin Wu now felt like this voice wasn't really hostile to him.

"Ah, yes… you don't know its name either. It does make sense, no one has been able to grasp that Dao for a long time. A Dao that old is often forgotten, but never erased…" The voice replied. "Still… if you have managed to grasp all this, then you are qualified to tread on my Dao. I permit you!"

"Permit me?" Lin Wu said in a confused tone before feeling a new aura within him. "Huh?"

All of a sudden, a new term appeared in his mind. While it was new, Lin Wu also felt like it was innately known to him. It was as if he was simply… remembering it.

"Dao of Assimilation…" Lin Wu muttered.

"Yes, yes… you'll feel it soon. Hahaha! I'd have loved to have you as my disciple. You're almost comparable to me back when I comprehended this Dao." The voice now seemed to be happy.

"Disciple? What?" Lin Wu had not expected this.

"I'll offer you this. Survive… The Karma of my Dao and then one day I may take you in as my disciple." The voice answered. "And the other Dao should be known to you soon as well. You treading upon my Dao should be enough of a trigger for it to manifest as well." It added.

"It will trigger the other Dao? Wait! Who are you?" Lin Wu questioned, but received no answer.

He could only watch as the pressure from the voice disappear.

~DING~
