Rise Of The Worm Sovereign – Chapter 839

839 Coordinates Of An Immortal World

Chapter 839: Coordinates Of An Immortal World!

Lian Xiaojian laid on the ground and rested for a bit. 

His energy had been sapped by the latest attempt and he would need to rest for a while before trying again. He had been given these instructions long before and knew exactly to follow them.

But Lian Xiaojian couldn’t rest too long either. He needed to make sure that his body was constantly under a certain level of stress. If that threshold of fatigue and injuries was exceeded or underwhelmed, he would be unable to have any success.

This was something he had learned from the constant battering of the formations. He had realized that the attacks would intensify whenever he was well rested and ease up when he was reaching a certain level of exhaustion.

If his injuries also reached an extreme level, he would be sent flying back. While the final attack may seem powerful, it inflicted the least injuries and mostly had a knock back power in it.

This was the protocol that the system had developed and it was said to have approximately a fifty percent chance of succeeding.

Lian Xiaojian rested for a few minutes, before gritting his teeth and standing up. 

“Again!” he shouted, trying to hype himself up.

“HAAA!!!” Lian Xiaojian let out a battle cry as he charged ahead.

~SHUA~

The runes activated and the formation array started sending out hundreds of attacks at once. Lian Xiaojian dodged them skillfully or endured them front on with his body. Some of the attacks caused no damage to him, while some of them left deep gashes in his flesh.

“COME ON! COME ON!” Lian Xiaojian kept on running as he finally reached the same point he had last time.

That was also the furthest point he had reached in three years.

‘Today will be the day I break the record!’ Lian Xiaojian thought with determination.

It was safe to say that this was not his first time doing this, and he had kept up the habit to keep his hopes up.

“Just a few steps more…” Lian Xiaojian grunted in pain as blood dripped from his flesh.

His limbs were cramping up while his body fleet like it was on fire… which it actually was a few times.

~SHUA~

But just as Lian Xiaojian was on the precipice of the previous limit, a bunch of runes appeared in the area behind him, giving him a little surprise.

~BOOM~

That moment of surprises was enough to break his focus and send him back flying.

“AAAAAH!” Lian Xiaojian let out a scream as he flew through the air.

~WENG~

But before he could hit the wall at the very back, he found his body being wrapped with something.

“Caught you!” A voice was heard as Lian Xiaojian saw a crystal rope binding him from the center.

It prevented him from slamming into the wall and brought him down safely.

“Huh? King Lin Wu?” Lian Xiaojian said in confusion. 

The crystal rope was none other than an extension from Lin Wu’s tail that had caught him. But when Lian Xiaojian looked at the two other figures standing next to Lin Wu, he was even more shocked.

“ELDER RUANJIAN? FATHER!?” Lian Xiaojian couldn’t believe his eyes.

When he had entered this hall, he was fully ready to seclude himself and practice till he succeeded. While he had certainly gotten thoughts about taking a break, the anxiety of suddenly exploding and dying would quickly kick them away.

Thus, seeing someone here was a pleasant surprise to him.

“W-What… what are you all doing here?” Lian Xiaojian couldn’t help but ask.

He even wondered if he was hallucinating again after getting injured too much. It had certainly happened a few times in the past, and he had become a little doubtful of his eyes.

‘Are they really here or am I just dreaming?’ Lian Xiaojian wondered to himself.

“Young master, Xiaojian.” Elder Ruanjian said in a weak tone.

He could see the injuries riddled body of Lian Xiaojian and found it hard to believe. 

“Xiaojian…” Lian Dajian reciprocated.

“Your father and Elder Ruanjian are here to meet you and also discuss some things.” Lin Wu stated.

“Oh? What things?” Lian Xiaojian questioned.

~Sigh~

Lian Dajian let out a sigh and explained all that had happened to Lian Xiaojian. How he had discovered that he too had the Vital House Physique and it was unawakened too. Then he told him that since he had a higher cultivation base and had lived for longer, his own chances of awakening the physique were low.

The father and son talked for about thirty minutes, with Elder Ruanjian chiming in from time to time. But Lin Wu kept his silence and instead checked out the newly gathered information on the system screens.

‘Whoa! Just how far is this place?’ Lin Wu was stunned on seeing the coordinates.

Of course, the literal coordinates were something that would not be understandable by Lin Wu, but the system had skillfully converted it into values that Lin Wu would understand.

~DING~

——

Distance of coordinates from the host’s current location: Infinite 

NOTE: There is a realm barrier that exists between the worlds and the host would need to cross the void to reach the immortal world. 

Distance of coordinates from the realm barrier: 1.2 Light years

——

“SHEEEEESH!” Lin Wu couldn’t help but say.

The location was truly too far from the Ming Dao world. In fact, it wasn’t even in the same realm of existence.

‘No wonder ascension is needed to reach the immortal worlds. One needs to pass through the void and overcome the realm barrier. Without that, one can wander as much as they want in the space but they would never reach an immortal world.’ Lin Wu thought to himself.

With the two realms of existence in different parts of the void, no matter how far Lin Wu traversed, he would never reach an immortal world. Which was why the system had pegged the distance between his current location and coordinates as infinite.
