Rise Of The Worm Sovereign

"Aaand Done!" Lin Wu said after completing the mutation protocol with the tenth and final monkey beast.

~phew~

"That took way more spirit Qi, than I had expected. No wonder specifically targeted Mutation is faster, just like the system said." Lin Wu said to himself.

Previously, when Lin Wu used the Rhombus gem to make a beast servant, the mutation was not actually direct and intentional. Rather, it happened as a side effect of being in contact with the rhombus gem, which also emanated a part of the radiation from Lin Wu's body.

After being in contact for long enough, they would mutate their bloodlines, causing them to transform into a new kind of a species.

"Perhaps I should come up with a new name for them…" Lin Wu muttered to himself as he watched the monkey beasts that were lying on the ground and slowly changing.

Even though the mutation was directly done, it was still going to take at least a day for them to complete this. While observing the beasts, Lin Wu's eyes went to the small white dots that were moving around on their bodies.

"Ugh! System teleport them into one of the flooded underground halls and wash them. I don't want the lice spreading to other places here." Lin Wu ordered.

~DING~

~SHUA~

In the next second, the ten black fur monkeys disappeared in a flicker of light. Lin Wu observed on the other monitor window as they were dunked into a flooded underground hall. This hall was still linked with the rest of the tomb, but over the years, water had leaked into it from the rains.

It had been like this long enough that it was now a water tank. The ten black fur monkeys were thrown into this hall and the formations in the hall started activating.

~woom~woom~woom~

The system used several formations, such as the water repelling formation and water attracting formation, to make the water move around in a spiral. Soon, the water formed into a tornado and the entire hall became a washing machine.

The ten black fur monkeys were fully unconscious due to the effect of mutation and thus didn't feel anything at all. As for them being submerged in water? Spirit beasts and cultivators could hold their breaths for far longer than normal animals and humans.

Not to mention these black fur monkeys were all at the early stage of the core condensation realm thus, they were stronger than the average spirit beast. To them, even if they were submerged in water for thirty minutes, they would be fine.

Besides, the system was keeping an eye on their vitals and wouldn't let any harm come to them. The ten black fur monkeys spun in the 'washing machine/hall' for about five minutes before it detected zero presence of lice.

~DING~

——

TASK COMPLETED: Black Fur Monkeys sanitized.

——

"Very good system." Lin Wu said as the black fur monkeys were then brought back into the hall.

~splat~

A wet splat was heard as all of them fell to the ground at once.

"Ah, I forgot about the water… fear not though!" Lin Wu said as he pointed his tail towards the monkey beasts.

~WHOOSH~

He then morphed the tail to have two flat blades that were perpendicular to the tip and started spinning them rapidly. But in addition to this, he used radiation to heat up the air.

"There we go. Shirong might call this… Immortal Crystal Armament: Hair dryer form!" Lin Wu chuckled.

The hot air quickly dried out the drenched monkeys and also dried the water on the floor. About a minute later, they were fully dried and Lin Wu changed his body back to normal.

"Ah, the things I do for convenience…" Lin Wu said to himself.

He then went to do some other tasks until it was time for the monkey beasts to wake up. Only when they were fully woken up, could he give them the information. He could of course, try to inject it right now, but with them being unconscious, the information may just get jumbled up.

So instead of wasting effort and time, Lin Wu just decided to wait and do something else till then. He simply read a few more documents that had been compiled by the system and also let his body cultivate at the same time.

The day passed rather quickly, with little to no changes happening in the forest.

"Another part done…" Lin Wu said with a nod.

Lin Wu had just finished about six more books that the stem had compiled from the data obtained in all his adventure. They contained information about a lot of different things and were sort of an entertainment for Lin Wu as well.

"Let's check up on our guests shall we…" Lin Wu said as he brought up the monitor back.

Looking at it, he could see that three of the ten black fur monkeys were already awake and were just testing out their new bodies. Lin Wu also took this chance to observe them and see if there was anything different.

Looking at them, they also had the crystalline parts like the other beast's Lin Wu had mutated.

In the case of the black fur monkeys, their knuckles, elbows, shoulders, knees, and ankles. Basically, the parts that were joints for their limbs had become crystalline and looked Ike they had green gems embed in them.

"Damn, now their normal knuckles are the same as knuckle dusters." Lin Wu said upon seeing the protruding knuckles.

Though in the case of cultivation base, it hadn't really changed much since most of the spirit Qi that they absorbed during this time and that which Lin Wu had given them had gone into progressing their mutation and speeding it up as well.

Lin Wu watched as the black fur monkeys tested out their new bodies and the changes in them. They clashed knuckles and tapped them together. Then, they started fighting as if it were a boxing match.

"Huh… I may have another entertainment choice now…"
