Rise Of The Worm Sovereign

"You want to take over the world!?" Wang Xiong said out loud.

"Yes." Lin Wu replied.

"And you want to start by taking over the Frozen Cloud sect?" 

"Yes."

"And you want me to take over it?" 

"Yes, it's the most obvious method and won't go against Yun Bai's restriction either. You are a legitimate member of the sect and also the chief disciple. If anything, we are just speeding up the process." Lin Wu stated.

While Wang Xiong knew that Lin Wu wanted to make an organization to protect the world against the Shadow calamity, him taking over it entirely was way beyond his thinking. It was frankly something no one in the world could do.

There were many reasons for it, the main one being that the powers of the world would not allow something like that to happen anyway.

'No, wait… Senior Lin Wu is not a normal being, anyway. If there's anyone that can do it, then it's him.' Wang Xiong thought to himself.

Ye Jin had simply given up on thinking anymore and had decided that she will just let everything happen. As long as Wang Xiong was there, she would be with him and support him. Other than that she only felt like she would stress her mind if she thought too much about it all. 

The powers that were now acting was beyond her power and thus it was better for her to keep her head down.

~Sigh~

"Guess I'll just follow your words, Senior." Wang Xiong stated.

"Mmhmm, I assure you it will be for the best." Lin Wu replied.

"So, where do we start?" Wang Xiong asked.

"The first would be to solidify your position in the sect. We will begin with the Di Guan mine and solve the problem there. I'll go there myself and also see what's exactly hidden in it that the Frozen Cliff Division wants it." Lin Wu replied.

"Yes, senior. Plus, there is the spy that we caught as well. There are some other people that are interfering in this. They have apparently allied with the Frozen Cliff division. The one name we have is Weiyuan. I've already checked the sect and its no one from here. 

We tried to see the other potential suspects as well that may have been behind it, but our investigations came out negative." Wang Xiong stated.

"Hmm, Weiyuan… I'll keep that in mind. What else do you have about it?" Lin Wu questioned.

Wang Xiong then told him about the agitation jade and a little more information they had gathered. Lin Wu was really intrigued by this and wanted to see the item himself.

"Show me the agitation jade." Lin Wu asked.

"Here you go senior." Wang Xiong withdrew the agitation jade from his spatial storage ring. 

This time he had three of them. There were two more that his subordinates had managed to find in the Di Guan mines. Lin Wu took a look at them and found them to be rather peculiar.

"System, scan and analyze them. I want to know everything about them." Lin Wu ordered.

~DING~

——

SCANNER: Activated

TARGET IDENTIFIED: Agitation jade

INFORMATION: It can be made from several different materials that can be mixed and matched to get the same result. These are made using Demesne Blood Cobra Venom, Mind Befuddling flower, and Vitrine Gourd Water; its mixture is then infused into a jade. The combination of these materials results in an effect of anger and volatility in beasts. 

The Agitation jades can decrease the intelligence of beasts, increase their anger and make them hostile to all beings. They will fight anything that they see and it can cause a beast wave if enough beasts are affected.

The agitation jades are a forbidden spirit tool, first used by the invaders that appeared in the Ming Dao world. They used them to induce beast tides that devastated the lands.

The greater the number of agitation jades used, the greater its effect. If the beasts are under its influence for longer periods of time, they can be permanently be affected. 

Depending on its grade an agitation jade can affect beasts all the way up to Dao treading realm. The one that the host has right now is a mid grade agitation jade and can affect beasts in the Nascent Soul realm.

Reading the information, Lin Wu furrowed his brows.

"This is certainly not something just anyone can make… if they can do this, then they are probably from one of the stronger powers of this world. After all, the information about things related to the invaders was either destroyed or hidden away by the guardian clans." Lin Wu stated.

"You think this is related to the invaders' senior?" Wang Xiong asked, feeling worried.

"I don't just think, I know it. The agitation jades were made by the invaders first and they brought the knowledge. Thus the only people who can make it are the ones who hid the information in the first place." Lin Wu replied and looked at Yun Bai.

"What do you think?" Lin Wu asked.

"Hmm… I think I've heard of these before, though I'll need to check my clan's archives again. Perhaps I'll find something there." Yun Bai replied.

"Alright, you can go and check that, I'll go deal with the beast in the Di Guan mines. You two just gather your people and get them ready for the things to come. We'll have a lot of work to do. They need to be strong if they are to fight for this." Lin Wu ordered.

"Yes senior!" Wang Xiong replied.

"Oh and… take these." Lin Wu said as a mountain of objects appeared next to him. 

Seeing these, Wang Xiong was confused at first, but then he recognized what they were.

"This… what do we do with these many pills, senior?" Wang Xiong asked, feeling a bit dumbfounded.

"What else do you think? Give them to your people and tell them to hurry up. I don't want us to lag behind just because your people are weak.." Lin Wu replied, much to Wang Xiong's embarrassment.
