Rise Of The Worm Sovereign-Chapter 1018 The Talented Frost Foxes And Works Of The Forest
"You let the enter the trails?"
Hearing the Emeraldine Sky Light Monk Ape's words, Lin Wu was a bit surprised.
While he knew that the Sky Bright Daoist's trials were open to everyone, sending in the members of the Frost Fox Clan might be a bit too much. With the restrictions they had on them, their progress was going to be quite slow.
Lin Wu didn't even know if they would be able to pass some of the trails as they were directly based on cultivation ability. If one was always stuck at a certain level, passing those trials might not be possible either.
Not to mention, these trials came on pretty early as well.
"Yes, I did, master." The Emeraldine Sky Light Monk Ape replied. "They are actually doing quite well." He revealed.
"They are?" Lin Wu raised a brow before activating the array of the tomb.
~shua~
In the next second, a screen materialized in front of him that showed the scene of the trial.
"They're on the thirteenth trial…" Lin Wu observed that they were in the middle of a battle right now.
It was just an illusory battle but the Frost Foxes were taking it very seriously. Each of them fought valiantly and their skills were also quite strong. At the very least, Lin Wu could tell that the descendants of Yun Bai weren't lacking in their battle skill.
Lin Mu then scrolled back and checked the recordings of their previous trials. The ones that he was focused on were those that involved one's cultivation ability. That was the part where the frost foxes were the most disadvantaged after all.
They were limited by the Ming Dao world's restrictions and would not be able to break through. Most of their members were destined to halt at the Core condensation realm and only a handful would be able to reach the Nascent soul realm.
Only Yun Bai was the one who could reach the Dao Shell realm, and even that was because of the contract he had made with the founder of the Frozen Cloud sect all those years ago.
It was here that Lin Wu saw something surprising.
"Wait a second… how's this possible?" Lin Wu was confused by the outcome of this trial.
The trial in question was basically a test to see if one could figure out a way to breakthrough to the next major realm. Of course this was in an illusory realm and anything that happened here would not be real.
But at the same time, it would give one a lot of experience as it would almost be the same as real life.
The time flow was accelerated in this trial, so one could spend tens of years in a matter of minutes here. It would allow one to have an easier time breaking through in their real life later on.
Lin Wu had originally thought that they wouldn't be able to progress past this trial, but surprisingly they passed it very quickly.
It was at this point that Lin Wu understood the reason.
'Of course… this is the Sky Bright Daoist's trials. There is no such thing as the world's restrictions here. The Frost Foxes can actually reveal their full potential here.' Lin Wu realized.
He also went through their other trials and found all of them to be a bit impressive. Some trials took them longer time, but they had still managed to pass it in the end.
"This is good… The Frost Foxes will get to learn more about their bloodline and bodies. Let them continue the trials then." Lin Wu stated.
"Of course, master." The Emeraldine Sky Light Monk Ape agreed. "Also, if they do pass all the trials, should we allow them to take Taiji Celestial's trials?" he asked.
"Hmmm… send them to me once they are done. I'll decide after that." Lin Wu replied.
He was fine with them taking the Taiji Celestial's trials but doubted they would be able to fully pass it. The Frost Foxes were innately of the ice element and would not be as suitable to practice the Taiji Celestial's techniques from what Lin Wu could understand.
It was fine if they were humans, but they were not. They had a bloodline that dictated their potential after all.
'If they do manage to succeed, they'll get the inheritance of the Taiji Celestial, if not the Sky Bright Daoist's inheritance isn't bad either.' Lin Wu thought to himself.
He then discussed a few more matters with his subordinates and took decisions for the Millennium Forest.
Next was the long list of pending meetings that were on the backlog since last year. There were a lot of people that had been desiring to meet Lin Wu, but had been told to wait due to his 'seclusion'.
Of course, these people wouldn't be rude and quickly accepted it. Some of them returned to their homes, but there were a handful that had simply decided to stay in the Millennium Forest Kingdom.
It was a novel place compared to the human kingdoms after all, and to many cultivators, it felt new. Some were enthralled by its activities, while some were enchanted by the food that was available there.
Unknowingly, the Millennium Forest Kingdom had taken on the flair of a tourist destination.
There were even disciples of sects coming over to play after paying a lot of merit points in their sects. They would take up 'missions' that would assign them to the Millennium Forest kingdom or around it, just so that they might have a reason to visit.
The ones who had desired to meet Lin Wu though, weren't disciples. They were instead elders or other high ranked people who could represent various powers and had come to discuss deals and trade agreements with the king.
Of course, Lin Wu's subordinates could also deal with these matters, but there were still many that wished to meet the king personally.
The cost for this was also significant, otherwise there would be no lack of tom, dick and harry's that wanted to meet Lin Wu.
Lin Wu didn't deny them this either and properly met with all of them.
They were bringing him favorable deals, so why would he deny them?
Besides, it only helped to further expand the scope of Lin Wu's influence and was beneficial to his plans. 𝒇𝘳ℯℯ𝚠𝙚𝑏𝗻𝑜ѵ𝑒𝙡.co𝑚
He was also very fast and finished several meetings in less than three hours. As for the others who had returned to their homes, they were called back again. Lin Wu's subordinates had sent out messages that the King was out of seclusion and would be meeting as many people as possible.
This made several of them rush back, and they would probably arrive in a day or two at the max.
"I'll do some other tasks in the time being." Lin Wu spoke to Cang Ci and the Emeraldine Sky Light Monk Ape. "And if some do end up arriving early, just make them wait." He added.
"As you wish, master." The two replied.
"Mmm… I'll be in Tieba city for a bit." Lin Wu said before activating the teleportation array.
~SHUA~
The teleportation circle materialized around him and sent his body traveling through the void.
A few seconds later, Lin Wu was now under Tieba City.
"Oh? Looks like the Shadow Legion finished the renovation here too…" Lin Wu looked around the long and wide halls.
These used to be crude and made from solid rock, while the floor was dirt. But now, the Show Legion had worked on it and everything had been made properly.
The floor was paved with stone tiles carved with repeating patterns, while the walls had been smoothed out. A level of symmetry was also established, making the hall look like the grand hall of some sect or kingdom.
And at the very back of it, there was none other than the Avatar.
It had been cultivating her for over a year now and had grown a bit.
Lin Wu glanced at the Avatar data for a moment and didn't even mind the increase in the spirit Qi. To him, the gains in spirit Qi didn't matter as much due to the sheer amount of it that he would get every year from his 'cultivators'.
Instead of that, what Lin Wu was interested in was the Dao Embryo of the Avatar.
"Hmm… The Helix of Assimilation is almost the same as before. Guess without more creatures to feed it, the growth will be minimal." Lin Wu muttered to himself before taking out several of the stored beast corpses.
~THUD~THUD~THUD~
In just a few seconds, a mountain of beast corpses was formed in front of the avatar.
There were over a thousand different types of beasts in it, that ranged from Qi refining realm all the way to Dao Treading realm!
There were even parts of the Aqua Dream Ocean Lotus mixed in it, that Lin Wu had especially saved for the avatar.
Then there were a few fat Qi Sapping ticks on the side too.
