Rise Of The Worm Sovereign

It took Lin Wu slightly longer than the other servants to upgrade the gems of the mole beast and the beetle beast. Perhaps it was because they had become the servant first and had the gems for the longest. It had become fully integrated into their bodies, thus making it a bit more difficult.

But once it was done, Lin Wu could tell the difference right away. 

'The connection strength and presence is certainly stronger… maybe this will have some effect on their mutation as well.' Lin Wu thought to himself.

But on the other side, the mole beast and the beetle beast didn't fall into a daze like the others and recovered almost instantly.

"I feel different?" The mole beast said.

"You too?" The beetle beast questioned.

"What do you feel is different now?" Lin Mu questioned.

"It is like… the spirit Qi has taken on a different quality… it flows smoother than before…" The Mole beast answered.

The beetle beast closed her eyes and checked her body to see the effects on herself and found that she had the same experience.

"Seems like master made it easy for us to use spirit Qi. Also, the information within our minds will certainly help us in cultivation now." The beetle beast answered.

"Mmmhmm… you two can stay at the tomb and figure your abilities out. We shall battle the Olive Viper King in a few days." Lin Wu informed.

"We will be ready, master." The beetle beast and mole beast assured.

Lin Wu nodded his head and teleported away from the hall he was in. He returned to the main central hall and decided to sort through his inventory now.

'Hmm… the herbs I have aren't really useful to me directly now. I think it is time to set them up for further growth.' Lin Wu thought to himself.

There were also other items in his inventory that Lin Wu didn't really need anymore or never ended up using as his strength rose up quickly.

"Alright system, sort out the herbs that can be replanted and shift them to the area that we designated as a herb garden. As for the others, you can store them in the herb repository for later." Lin Wu ordered.

~DING~

——

ORDER: Accepted 

NOTIFICATION: These herbs can be replanted: 1. Eight Sigils Chrysanthemum 2. Earth Spirit Ganoderma 3. Blood Quill Grass 4. Iron Bark Tree…. (total number= 127) 

——

Lin Wu was surprised at seeing the large number of spirit herbs that could still be planted again. He had thought that most of them would not survive that and could only be used as resources directly or for making pills.

"Even the Eight Sigils Chrysanthemum can be replanted… this should have been impossible though shouldn't it?" Lin Wu said.

~DING~

——

ANSWER: Due to the recent Data bank upgrades, the system has extrapolated and analyzed new methods of spirit herb growing. This can allow several spirit herbs to be replanted or even grown entirely from seeds and cuttings.

——

"AWESOME!" Hearing this Lin Wu was excited.

While he knew that he would have to depend on the monkey beasts to rear some spirit herbs, those weren't really of much value spirit Qi wise and were mostly for Lin Wu's own consumption as food.

But now he could actually rear the spirit herbs if needed.

"Data Updates are awesome!" Lin Wu exclaimed again.

He was now fully convinced that gaining more and more information and knowledge was the key to becoming stronger. As long as the system could gain more data, Lin Wu reckoned it could do everything.

"Alright, system how are we going to replant them?" Lin Wu asked.

~DING~

——

ANSWERS system can set up a formation array for rearing the spirit herbs. The host will only need to plant them according to the instruction and the formation will ensure proper growing conditions.

——

"Alright, we can do that. Which hall are we choosing for it?" Lin Wu questioned.

~DING~

——

ANSWER: The sixth to eleventh middle halls are perfect for rearing spirit herbs. The are plenty of spirit Qi channels passing through them that can supply the needed spirit Qi and sun soaking formations can also be set up to provide them the sunlight. 

As for the soil, normal soil from the millennium forest will suffice and for some specific herbs, it can be modified as needed.

——

Lin Wu read the entire answer given by the system and decided to get to work. He wanted to set all of this up before the arrival of the avatar so that he would be able to fight the Olive Viper King right away.

~SHUA~

In the next moment, he disappeared from the main hall and appeared in the hall, which the system had labeled as a sixth middle hall. Upon appearing there Lin Wu saw the floor was quite damaged and cracked. 

'No wonder the system chose this hall. The floors can just be removed entirely and replaced with soil.' Lin Wu thought to himself.

~DING~

——

NOTIFICATION: The host has to first remove all of the stone floor tiles to unearth the actual soil beneath.

——

"Let's get to it then. I'm a worm, I'm made for this!" Lin Wu motivated himself before using cellular crystallization.

This time, he changed his body to gain multiple barbs on it. After doing this, he laid on the ground and started spinning while also moving ahead.

~RUMBLE~

~DENG~DENG~DENG~

~THUD~THUD~THUD~

Chunk after chunk of the floor was uprooted and thrown around. Lin Wu was like a powerful excavator that rapidly moved throughout the hall. In about ten minutes, Lin Wu had successfully removed all of the stone tiles from the floor.

"There we go, this should be enough." Lin Wu said as he gazed at the sight of devastation.

If it were anyone else here and they saw the state of the hall, they would definitely think that it was destroyed due to some earthquake or other such disaster. It looked utterly terrifying.

"Now then… what's the next step?"
