Rise Of The Worm Sovereign

965 A Streamlined Path

The Dao embryo that Lin Wu had just formed was named 'Helix Of Assimilation.'

Lin Wu also understood how the Embryo worked or what its function was. Unlike the previous Dao Embryo, the Totem Of Upheaval, he obtained a lot of information.

'The difference is quite drastic… or is this due to the fact that I was specifically permitted by that unknown being?' Lin Wu wondered.

In fact, Lin Wu got what was basically a manual for progressing the Helix of Assimilation.

"Huh… the process is rather straightforward… pretty much what I have been doing all this time…" Lin Wu said upon going through the instructions.

In the Dao Treading realm, one needed to grow their Dao embryo while also comprehending the Dao from it. The methods to growing the Dao Embryo were varied and not everyone had the same method.

Many people even searched for thousands of years while being stuck at the very first stage. But to Lin Wu, it was as if it was handed on a silver platter.

The method was simple… he just needed to consume other beings. Whether they be animals, beasts, plants and all creatures. Heck, they didn't even need to be living things in some cases.

As long as it was something unique and/or had energy, it would help progress his Dao Embryo. And the growth of the Dao embryo would also increase his comprehension of the Dao automatically.

It was a streamline method and would be perfect for Lin Wu.

"It's almost as if this was made for me… no, wait… I've been following this pattern since the start so it's obvious for it to have appeared to me." Lin Wu corrected himself.

He was the one who had created the ideal conditions for this Dao to have presented to himself after all.

~DING~

DAO EMBRYO: Helix Of Assimilation Dao Embryo (Dao of Assimilation) [updated]

——

The changes in the Avatar data were similar to those of the Main body. The main difference was simply in the Dao Embryo it now had.

"So the breakthrough is finally completed…" Lin Wu didn't feel that different from before.

'Hmm… perhaps I need to trigger the Dao Embryo to feel it.' Lin Wu thought to himself.

The Dao Embryo, Helix Of Assimilation wasn't really something that directly contributed in offense or defense after all. It provided more of a passive support, allowing Lin Wu to grow stronger faster.

Thus he couldn't just 'activate' the Dao Embryo's Dao Skill to see its effects.

"Now that I think of it, isn't the Totem Of Upheaval still a mystery to me? I don't even know its actual function or the Dao skill that came with it." Lin Wu realized.

The unknown being had called it a lost Dao, and Lin Wu wondered if it having no other practitioners actually influenced the amount of information learned.

~Sigh~

"Doesn't matter. I'll just have to learn it on my own. This is what normal cultivators do anyway." Lin Wu didn't think he was at any disadvantage.

And while thinking about this, another thought came to it.

"Hang on… did my breakthrough cause any trouble?" Lin Wu wondered and checked the monitoring screens. "Huh… nothing? Really?" he couldn't believe it.

"System, were there really no changes in the area due to my breakthrough?" Lin Wu questioned.

~DING~

——

ANSWER: The host's breakthrough have been highly contained naturally and did not cause any external effects. No one knows that the host has broken through other than the servants and subordinates that share the Emeraldine Legion Bloodline.

——

"I see… well this can be an advantage I suppose. I can continue to keep my cultivation base a mystery to others." Lin Wu reckoned.

Lin Wu spread his spirit sense, grasping all that was happening within Tieba city at once. The city had already become his 'base' a few years ago and was firmly under his control.

Or rather, under the control of the 'Shadow lord' as he had been unofficially called.

The soldiers Lin Wu had raised along with Feng were the ones controlling the city now. Cang Ci had also contributed to it all, being Lin Wu's main executive here. She was the only one that knew of Lin Wu's two identities other than some of his beast subordinates.

Because of this, Cang Ci's duties were also quite vast having to do work for 'both sides'.

"I should call her now… I can make some changes in the plan." Lin Wu muttered and sent a message to her.

~step~step~step~

Rushed footsteps could be heard coming from the distance just a couple minutes after Lin Wu had sent out the message.

"Master!" Cang Ci called out upon seeing Lin Wu. "You… feel different."

"I do?" Lin Wu couldn't tell the difference in his own aura like this but it seemed like others could. "How so?" he questioned.

"You feel like… like… a vortex? Like you would sweep away everything with you." Cang Ci answered.

"I see…" Lin Wu found it to be somewhat accurate. 'Guess this is the change from my Dao Embryo.' He reckoned.

"Did you finish your breakthrough already?" Cang Ci guessed.

"I did indeed." Lin Wu nodded his head. "And as a virtue of that, we can now make some improvements."

"Congratulations!" Cang Ci said with a bright smile. "And what do you have in mind for improvements?" she asked.

"You said once before that we have several people willing to join us, but they need to see a figurehead?" Lin Wu asked in turn.

"Y-yes. They want to see the so-called Shadow Lord." Cang Ci confirmed.

~SHUA~

"Well… tell them… they can meet him if they want to." Lin Wu said while a person formed next to him.
