Rise Of The Worm Sovereign

This was the first time the system was scanning and analyzing the data for a nascent soul realm beast, and thus it had taken it a bit longer than normal. By now, Shirong had calmed down and thanked his luck that the spear got him out of there quickly.

Because the beast was a flying beast, Shirong would not have been able to detect it using his spirit sense as the distance would have been too long. He didn't know how, but the green crystal spear had sensed it beforehand and warned him to run.

Shirong peeked out of the cave and ensured that the beast was gone before leaving it. In reality, even if Shirong had hidden in a cave, he knew that his chances of survival would be low if the flying beast decoded to attack him.

The cave was merely a way to get out of the sight of the flying beast so that it did not decide to eat him on a whim. Also from the sheer size and spirit qi waves, Shirong could tell that it was no common Nascent soul realm beast.

'That beast was at the very least an Adolescent stage Nascent soul realm beast…' Shirong thought to himself.

While Shirong had confidence in himself that he would be able to handle an Infant stage Nascent soul realm beast or cultivator, and escape from a Child stage Nascent soul realm beast, there was no chance that he would be able to do anything against an Adolescent stage Nascent soul realm beast.

The difference in the strengths would be so much that he would barely have to blink and he would be eliminated.

"Huh? This is strange… if this is an old beast that has been living here for a long time, why do the people from the Deer Wood city not have any information on it? They had information on the Twin Light Liger King, the Split Thorn Horn Beetle King, but not this?" Lin Wu muttered to himself.

He could understand about the Olive Viper King as it was a newly grown Nascent soul realm beast that only became one, two years ago. It was normal that the people from the Deer Wood city did not know about it.

'Wait a minute… I know of the four rulers but what is the last one?' Lin Wu wondered.

He activated the communication link with the Mole beast and asked him this question.

"Oh, that is the weakest Nascent soul realm beast of the five rulers being at the Child stage of the Nascent Soul realm. It is called as the Slim Arm Ape and doesn't really appear much. He mostly stays in his cave and actually hasn't been seen for about ten years now. But his subordinates still roam around the area, thus we know that it is still active." The mole beast answered.

"Is there anything peculiar about this beast?" Lin Wu questioned.

"Hmm… I've heard that the Slim Arm Ape can communicate with humans. That's all I can think of." The mole beast replied.

"Okay…" Lin Wu replied before stopping the connection.

He had not expected that there would be a beast that could communicate with humans here, that too one that would be in the Nascent Soul realm. Lin Wu wondered if this beast would be more reasonable than the other beasts and if he would be able to talk with it.

Shirong was currently sitting inside the cave again. This was much better for him, as he wouldn't have to get wet in the rain anymore. The shelter he had made before wasn't able to stop much of the rain, and even if he could make better shelter, it would have been impossible without creating a large amount of commotion.

Shirong knew that causing a conflict at the night time in the millennium forest, that too in the fourth ring would be quite dangerous. Thus he just decided to stay here for the time being, till the sun came up. Usually a cave like this would also have some water leaking into it due to the rain but it had a slightly elevated Stone floor.

This caused the water that entered it to spread to the sides instead of all over the floor. The cloth that he had used to put the spear on was left behind at the tree, thus the spear now kept on the ground directly.

Lin Wu did not mind it, as he was busy thinking about his own things. 

Shirong spent the rest of the night in the cave while thinking of the Eagle Beast. He had seen the direction it was heading towards and it was to the west. 

'If it is going towards the west and leaving the Millennium forest, then it would reach the plains first. But there is nothing in the plains except for a few towns and villages with farmland. A nascent soul realm beast wouldn't attack humans without provocation that too commoners, that would not even give it benefits.

Besides, if it wanted to eat humans the better choice would be to head to the Deer wood city, with its strength I'm pretty sure it would be able to massacre the entire city without facing much Resistance.' Shirong analyzed.

Soon the rain stopped and the sun could be seen peeking from behind the clouds. A pale rainbow could also be seen in the distance, which made the already beautiful forest look even more enchanting. Shirong picked up the spear and began his journey again.

He didn't even think if he needed to report the sighting of a Nascent soul realm beast to the authorities as his main goal was to get stronger. He had no time to think of what would happen to the others.
