Rise Of The Worm Sovereign

Reaching the minor plane was not much of an issue for Lin Wu who easily traveled underground.

The said plane was hidden amongst several mountains and its entrance was quite small too. But for Lin Wu and the system, finding it was just a joke. A single scan was all it took for the system to show Lin Wu its exact position.

"Hmm… if it is here among the mountains, that means a sect used to be here, right?" Lin Wu looked through the database to see if there was any information, but couldn't find anything.

'The Hu clan did a thorough erasing of all history of sects, for sure…' Lin Wu thought.

The entrance of the minor plane was hidden in a narrow crevice that Lin Wu very easily widened.

~CRACK~

~CRUMBLE~

The crevice was forcefully shattered, allowing Lin Wu's body to pass through it easily.

"What's the scan saying for this system?" Lin Wu questioned.

~DING~

——

ANALYSIS: The Minor plane is unstable and the spatial channel leading to it is turbulent. This makes it difficult to return once one has entered.

SUGGESTION: A spatial stabilizing array can address the defect of the minor plane.

——

"Very well, let's do that." Lin Wu accepted.

~SHUA~

In the next second, a few thousand runes formed around him and were quickly being inscribed all over the area. They were inscribed on the walls, and even the very air. Fifteen minutes later, the array was completed and the runes faded away.

~HONG~

A spiraling portal became visible at the end of the crevice and started to let out energy fluctuations.

"It's definitely unstable for sure… since no sect has maintained it, it has fallen to this state. If a sect was still here, it would have hundred of formations stabilizing it." Lin Wu muttered to himself.

He moved towards the portal and was quickly pulled into it.

~SHUA~

Lin Wu felt the familiar weightlessness as well as the pull of the Spatial Channel. At the same time, he saw the flickering motes of light around him in a dark expanse.

'The Lesser void…' Lin Wu only saw it for a few seconds before finding himself in a new place.

~THUD~

His large body landed on the ground, creating a depression in it.

"Scan the area system." Lin Wu ordered right away.

~DING~

Lin Wu opened the map window and saw the vast expanse of the minor plane.

From what he could see, the Minor plane was around a thousand square kilometer in area. Though most of it was just covered in forests and hills. And while there were lakes in it, there wasn't any larger water body.

Even the biggest lake seemed to be just a hundred meters in size. It just so happened that the Grass Mane Monkeys were also located near that lake.

'From the information I got earlier, there aren't any strong beasts here. The strongest is said to be at the Nascent soul realm and there are no Dao Shell realm beasts.' Lin Wu recalled. "I guess the minor plane restrains them from breaking through further…" he said before moving towards the lake.

Lin Wu basically faced no obstacles in his path as all the beasts were scared away by his mere presence. He was also looking to see if there were any new beasts here, but all of them were the same as the rest of the Hu continent.

'I guess only the Grass Mane Monkeys are the unique beast left here. But even that's because they were hunted to extinction outside.' Lin Wu thought.

A few minutes later, Lin Wu arrived near the lake.

His large body cast a shadow over the entire lake, as well as the forest around it. After all, Lin Wu was even bigger than the lake.

~KIKIKIKI~

As soon as he appeared, the sound of the monkeys could be heard.

Lin Wu quickly locked onto them, but didn't attack them. He could see that they were quite scared and seemed to be hanging among the trees.

They actually weren't that big, being even smaller than the Black Fur monkeys from the Millennium Forest. It seemed to be a tribe of them and tree were about fifty of them present right now.

'Hmmm… One of them seems to be at the Adult Soul Stage of the Nascent soul realm, but the rest are all at the Core condensation realm or below.' Lin Wu's spirit sense quickly grasped their situation.

"W-who are you?" A few seconds later, a large Grass mane monkey walked out of the trees.

He was the biggest one amongst them and seemed to be their leader. He was also the one with the highest cultivation base.

"Are you the leader?" Lin Wu questioned.

"Yes, I am… but who are you and what do you want with us?" The leader of the Grass Mane Monkeys' questioned.

Lin Wu could tell that the beast was quite scared, but was holding on due to his identity as a leader. After all, the leader knew that there was no way they could escape from Lin Wu if he had really come here to harm them.

But since he just seemed to be hovering in the air, he felt that there was still hope.

'First the humans come and kill my kin and now this… just what is happening to this place.' The leader of the Grass Mane Monkeys thought.

"I am Lin Wu. The King of the Millennium Forest Kingdom." He spoke. "And I've come here to offer you shelter and opportunities."

"Millennium Forest Kingdom?" The other Grass Mane Monkeys were confused upon hearing the name.

After all, they had never left this place, and thus didn't know much about the Hu continent.

"Are you from the outside world?" the leader of the Grass Mane Monkeys questioned.

"Yes I am. I've heard that this place was discovered and that your tribe lived here." Lin Wu answered.
