Rise Of The Worm Sovereign

Lin Wu gazed in the distance with his tens of eyes and saw that the sea had fully formed now. There was grey water everywhere and it had drowned out most of the mountains of the Cang Lan sect.

It was only the Core mountain of the Cang Lan sect on which their Great Hall was built that was above water right now. This was simply because it was the tallest and the largest one of them all.

~RUMBLE~

Finally, it seemed like the Dao skill was finality ready as a large wall of sea water now surrounded the entire Cang Lan sect.

"Guess we can call this a Tsunami?" Lin Wu muttered to himself.

Cang Anyu raised his hands high at this moment and roared, "Chimes of Cang Lan: Tides of Death!"

~GUSH~

With that, the tall walls of sea water collapsed, turning into a massive ring of Tsunami that was now crushing everything in its path.

But that wasn't all. As Lin Wu could see, it was also destroying the vitality of everything in its path. All the plants, animals and life within the Cang Lan sect were being wiped out at a shocking rate.

"The name is accurate at least." Lin Wu said before raising his body tall.

It directly rose over two hundred meters and was now eye level with the tsunami.

"Show me your strength! HAHAHA!" Lin Wu then roared out, his voice reaching far and wide.

Even the people who had escaped out of the sect could hear it clearly.

Shirong and the rest even felt chills doing down their spine upon hearing that voice.

<strong>~BOOM~</strong>

Finally, it happened, the massive Tsunami drowned out the entire core mountain of the Cang Lan sect. The Calamity Fiend's body disappeared within it and even Cang Anyu could not be seen inside it.

~SCREECH~

~SCREAM~

~CRY~

But that was not all, as the cries of agony could be heard. It was strange, as there was no one to scream there.

"Is that… coming from the sea?" Wang Xiong guessed.

"Yes… that sea is an amalgamation of resentment and dread. There are probably the soul remnants of many mixed in it. They are now crying out in despair." The Supreme Elder of the Cang Lan sect confirmed much to everyone's fear.

'The Dead were something that shouldn't be interfered with.'

Such was the common consensus among the righteous. But there was still a great power to them, that could not be touched normally. And yet today, they all could see it.

The power inspired fear and terror, but at the same time, it brought forth bad omens.

It would be hard to say what would happen to land that was tainted by such resentment.

Not to mention, there were still thousands of people who had died within it. Some due to the Calamity Fiend, and some due to the Tides of death.

"The Cang Lan sect will have to bear a great price for this…" The Long Clan elder muttered.

"Indeed… this is the same as their legacy being wiped out to some extent." Patriarch Bing spoke.

"Only time will tell how things goes… hopefully Patriarch Cang Lan's sacrifice works."

While they could wish for this, the reality was turning out to be quite different. About ten minutes later, they finally saw the Tide of Death parting.

"Huh?" Lian Xiaojian felt a fluctuation.

But then in the next moment, he sensed a large burst of vitality coming from the center of the Cang Lan sect.

"WHAT IS THAT!?" Lian Xiaojian shouted.

"Impossible!" The Supreme elder was aghast.

~ROAR!~

A familiar distorted roar could be heard and a large heard rose from the middle of the Cang Lan sect.

"Its… it's alive?" Wang Xiong found it hard to believe it too.

"Heavens save us…" Patriarch Bing could sense that the Calamity Fiend seemed to be entirely fine.

There was no change in its aura and the spirit Qi waves coming from its body only made him think that it was unaffected.

"We need to call the patriarch and the ancestors… we can't deal with this." The Long clan elders decided.

"Please do." The Supreme elder of the Cang Lan sect stated. "This is no longer something that just threatens the south… this is a threat to all of us."

The Long clan elders nodded while the male elder took out a jade slip.  A moment later though, his face fell.

"What happened?" The female elder asked.

"It… it doesn't work…" The male elder spoke.

"What?" The female elder was doubtful.

"The jade slip doesn't work! There seems to be some interfering." The male elder replied.

The others were also unnerved upon hearing this.

"Everyone, try to contact your sects and clans." Shirong quickly spoke, taking out his own personal jade slip.

They all tried to frantically contact their respective bases, but after a minute, they realized it was no use.

"It really is blocked… how is this possible?" Lian Xiaojian said with fear.

"Is it the work of the Calamity Fiend?" one of the elders of the Cang Lan sect asked.

"No doubt… Who else could do this?" Patriarch Bing spoke.

"There's only one way. We need to get as far as possible. There should be a limit to this interference." Shirong suggested.

"Yes!" Wang Xiong agreed. "Do you have any more of the talisman you just used, Elder?" he asked the Male Long Clan elder.

"No… that was the only one I had." The man shook his head.

"Curses… anyone else have methods to travel fast? We need to send at least once person away so that they can contact others." Wang Xiong stated.

But before they could discuss much, everyone felt a wave of energy coming from the distance.

"It's looking at us!" Lian Xiaojian shuddered.

They all saw the Calamity Fiend staring in their direction. And not just that, but its mouth was open along with tens of tentacles that too had mouths.

"CAREFUL!"

~SHUA~

In the next moment, several flaming jets shot towards them. Its speed was faster than they could react.

~RUMBLE~

~HONG~
