Rise Of The Worm Sovereign Chapter 408
Advertisement
Seeing that their final destination ended up being one of the very first ones they had been to, though not for the same reason, Lin Wu and the Silver Beak Sky Soar Eagle didn't know what to say.
"Well… at least this saves me time and I can get done with Shirong as well." Lin Wu said before turning to the Silver Beak Sky Soar Eagle. "Do you feel anything here?"
The Silver Beak Sky Soar Eagle closed her eyes and sensed the surroundings with her spirit sense and the bloodline resonance. She stayed like this for a minute before opening them, this time her pupils glowing.
"It's here… IT'S HERE! I CAN FEEL IT! ~PIIIII~" The Silver Beak Sky Soar Eagle let out a cry of joy.
Lin Wu nodded his head and understood that the barrier formations might have been far more than what he had seen outside. The layers between which he had trapped Shirong were on the outermost part and were thus the easiest to get into.
Whereas the current layer they were in was the innermost one, and there were thirteen layers to the border from here, with each layer having a different strength and durability. It had taken Lin Wu a few minutes to open up an opening in the outermost layer, just from that, one could imagine how long it would take with each subsequent layer.
'Thankfully we have the platform that brought us here…' Lin Wu thought to himself.
"Let's get in! I can't hold back," The Silver Beak Sky Soar Eagle stated and turned around to head towards the large archway in the main structure of the ruins.
Unlike the other places, the pillars in this part were made such that the platform would end up in the right center and the level of it would match the entrant. In fact, without the platform, this place would like unequal.

The archway here was over thirty meters tall, allowing both Lin Wu and the Silver Beak Sky Soar Eagle to enter easily. Once the two of them were in, they could sense the density of the air increase and become heavy.
"W-what… what is this?" Lin Wu questioned.
~Ding~
——
WARNING!: The air in this area is suffused with a dense interference field.
——
Seeing the system's warning, Lin Wu became a bit more alert. He didn't know what was the limit to which the system could handle the interference field. If the system worked similar to the electronics in his past life, there was a chance it might just stop working completely till he was here.
"Let's just hope that doesn't happen…" Lin Wu muttered to himself.
The area in front was dark, but a minute later, they felt the ground tremble.
~RUMBLE~
Two streaks of light came from the arch way from where they had just entered. These streaks of light traveled through the flooring and seemed to have come from the platform directly.
~Zoom~
The two streaks of light reached a pedestal that was located about fifty meters away from where they were and went perpendicular towards the walls to the sides. Lin Wu and the Silver Beak Sky Soar Eagle were completely unable to use their spirit sense here currently and thus needed to depend on their sight.
The interference field was finally at that point where even their meridians seemed to be in a little bit of distress. This was not a good sign, and if they were being affected by it already while being at the Nascent Soul realm and the Dao Shell realm, there was a great chance it might just kill others that were at a lower cultivation base.
"Whoa! Where are they going?" Lin Wu questioned.

The two streaks of light climbed up the wall and entered the hundreds of patterns that were made on them. As the streaks filled them up, the hall started to light up.
~Huala~
About ten seconds later, the entire area was lit up and the two beasts could not see everything there. In front of them was the pedestal that had just redirected the lights. On the sides of the two were tall pillars that supporting the ceiling and at the very end they saw something else.
Lin Wu had fully expected that there would be a statue of the vermilion bird here too, but it was not so. Instead of that, there was just a large altar at the very end of the hall. This altar also had the patterns, but this one seemed to be a bit more different from the ones on the walls.
"Huh? Aren't these… written in Dao Script?" Lin Wu recognized.
He stared as the system translated it all for him. But that did not catch his attention for long, as that was taken up by the container that was kept on the altar.
The container looked to be made out of some kind of a crystal and was open at the top, like a glass. The only difference between it and glass was that it was massive in size and thus worthy of being called a container.
The crystal was unlike the transparent ones and was opaque instead. But from it, both Lin Wu and Silver Beak Sky Soar Eagle could feel a delicious smell.
"What is this?" Lin Wu couldn't help but lick his lips.
~PIIII~
The Silver Beak Sky Soar Eagle had her eyes locked on the prize and let out another cry.
"That's it! That's the bloodline of the Vermillion bird!" The Silver Beak Sky Soar Eagle proclaimed.
Lin Wu narrowed his eyes and zoomed up on the container, seeing that it had a bright red liquid kept in it. The liquid was flowing like dense lava and flames also danced around the edges of the container.
"Is that… Blood?" Lin Wu questioned.
The two of them got closer and finally confirmed that it was blood… but the question stood what or rather whose blood this was. Lin Wu felt a bit nervous while the Silver Beak Sky Soar Eagle seemed to be excited.
'System, try and see if you can scan this.' Lin Wu asked.
