Lin Wu had been flying for about ten minutes now and had gotten a good idea about his speed. It was nearly the same as he had when he used his drill form to dig into the ground, which was quite fast.

He had gone past a lot of beasts who shivered and trembled upon sensing his presence. He was still not able to fully reel in his spirit Qi fluctuations and the system needed to do it for him. But when he was actively using spirit Qi that could not be done and as such, it would spread wherever he passed.

"Well, that's enough for now. Let's see if there was a change in my digging speed or not." Lin Wu muttered to himself before landing on the ground.

~thud~

Even though he landed gently, an imprint was still formed when he landed. He lowered his head and entered the ground before starting to dig. In just ten seconds, he realized that even in his normal form he was digging at a slightly slower speed than flying.

"Let's see how well the drill form does. If just the normal form is this fast, then the drill form must be something else." Lin Wu said before using his innate skills to morph his body.

His head became conical, while spiral grooves appeared all around his body. 

~shing~

~Rumble~

Lin Wu shot forward like a fish in the water as the soil gave way to him. He parted the ground like it was butter and felt nearly no resistance. He slowly started to expand to his full size and found his speed to still be increasing.

"Damn, even in my full size the speed doesn't reduce and actually increases. This is something else…" Lin Wu said, feeling surprised.

Ten minutes passed like this and unknowingly he had gone quite far from the area of the tomb. He was now close to the sixth ring of the millennium forest. He did not fear it as much anymore and could freely enter due to being a nascent soul realm beast.

Besides, the increased concentration of the spirit Qi was a pleasant feeling that he could not help but like. While the tomb also had a spirit Qi gathering formation, it could not compare to the large natural source of spirit Qi located in the center of the forest, right below the Dark Bloom Caverns.

"Hmm… I should be able to enter there now that I'm at the Nascent Soul realm. But… I still got a few more things to do before that. Can't go in rushing before preparation." Lin Wu said to himself.

He looked at the condition of his servants, who were still asleep after five days, and wondered if he should go check up on them. He discovered that the closest servant beast that was near his location was none other than the Beetle beast.

"Hmm… that cricket beast invited me to meet the Beetle king, right? I may as well complete both goals in one go and go there since I'm nearby." Lin Wu decided.

He tracked the position of the beetle beast on the map and soon reached the place. Unlike the other rulers of the forest, the area that the beetle king lived was mostly composed of dead trees. There were chips of barks everywhere and they had been packed into a tough cement like layer using mud.

"This is definitely the work of Split thorn horn beetles." Lin Wu said, recalling the description of the system.

The beetle beasts liked to carve up and break trees to make their nests which were what this basically was. This area was densely packed with trees around the boundary, while this part was relatively open. Lin Wu checked the map and found there to be thousands of insect beasts in the area.

He saw the location of the servant beast and found that there was a large marker near it.

"Hmm… that must be the beetle king. Did he perhaps… find out about me?" Lin Wu wondered.

He scanned the area for any suspicious activity and couldn't find any.

"At this point, I may as well go and meet the guy. If we fight, we fight." Lin Wu said with determination.

But he didn't enter straightway. Doing so would be a direct provocation as he would be intruding on the territory of a ruler of the forest. Instead, he knew just the right thing to do.

Lin Wu closed his eyes and let out a concentrated wave of spirit Qi that spread all the way to where the Beetle king was. Every beast that came under the range of the wave was able to sense who Lin Wu was.

"MY KING! IT'S ANOTHER NASCENT SOUL REALM BEAST!" The aide of the beetle king said.

The other beasts were scared, as usually, something like this meant that the Nascent soul realm beast was here to challenge the owner of the territory. Usually, the losing part would give the territory to the winner and leave the area. But now their condition was rather different. 

There were five rulers in the forest already, and all of them had their shares of the territories. With another beast being added to the mix, there would be more conflict that may even result in fatalities.

In the five rulers, the beetle beast was relatively less active currently and his subordinates were avoiding all conflicts. All they wanted to do right now was to maintain the status quo and avoid them making losses.

The beetle king's eyes glinted, and it was now that another insect beast spoke up.

"My king, I know this aura. It's the beast I was talking to you about, the one that spared out egg clutches." The cricket beast informed.

"So it really is him… he broke through to the Nascent Soul realm and endured a heavenly tribulation the likes of which this forest has never seen." The beetle king muttered.

"What should we do now?" The aide of the king asked.

"Let's meet and talk. It's not like we have any other choice…"
