Chapter 1087 The Purple Crested Orchid
While the Gui n thought they were being protected, Lin Wu was busy with the arrays of the n.
~DING~
——
NOTIFICATION: Gui n array takeover at 71%
——
The system had gotten working on the arrays of the n the moment they had entered the ce.
After all, Lin Wu was quite interested in their cial dome too. Its defenses were quite strong, since they could not only prevent Lin Wu the system from peeking in, but even that unknown beast had managed to not damage it much.
When it had attacked them, it had done so from the inside in the first ce. If not for that, the Gui n could have just turtled in their dome and stayed protected until the unknown beast decided to move away.
Lin Wu didn''t know why the Unknown beast had decided to stay there, but he knew it would be dying soon.
''I absolutely have to fulfill my ''promise'' to the Gui n.'' Lin Wu thought internally, with a smile.
The Gui n had no idea that their protector and invader were going to be the same. Of course, it was best they stayed in the dark, as it was the best result for Lin Wu.
~HISS~
Shortly after Lin Wu had entered the forbidden area, a hissing sound was heard. It felt like pressurized gas was leaking out from a container, but Lin Wu knew it wasn''t that simple.
"My, my… Poison gas right from the start?" Lin Wu said as he looked at the hazy area in front of him.
The entire area was covered in a purple colored mist, and barely anything could be seen behind it. The sound of the leaking gas was alsoing from behind the mist.
"Unfortunately for you, this doesn''t work on me!" Lin Wu whipped out with his tail which had transformed into the shape of a fan.
~WHOOSH~
One sweep with Wind spirit Qi infused into it was all it took to clear out all the gas, and reveal what was hiding behind it.
~KUWHEEEEEE~
A giant nt was revealed behind it. This was none other than the Purple Crested Orchid that Lin Wu had been looking for.
It had tens of flower heads, with one being thergest one. Each of the flower heads had sharp teeth and a long ck tongue that seemed to be dripping with poison as well,
The area around the nt had long since turned ck from the poison and anyone that stepped into it would end up dying within seconds.
Even for Dao Treading Realm cultivators, this was deadly and Immortal Ascension realm cultivators would barely be able to hold out against it. If one did not have specific skills that allowed them to resist poison, they would simply perish by taking a breath.
Lin Wu''s spirit sense scanned the beast and estimated its cultivation base to be at the Dao Comprehension Stage of the Dao Treading realm.
"Seems like you''ve been freeloading off the Gui n for quite some time. You''ve grown decently… perfect for harvesting now." Lin Wu smiled and shot towards the Purple Crested Orchid.
~KUWHUUU~
The Purple Crested Orchid did not intend to take it passively and counterattacked.
All of its flower heads except for the main one shot towards Lin Wu, while vines rose from it and tried to wrap around Lin Wu.
~SHING~
Unfortunately for the vines, as soon as they tried to touch Lin Wu, sharp des rose from his body, cutting them with ease.
~SIZZLE~
Corrosive fluid dripped from the cut vines, which also sshed onto Lin Wu''s body. But to him, resisting it was simple enough.
Hispatibility with the Poison Dao was quite high too after all. And his tough body has long since be immune to most poisons. Lin Wu had consumed enough materials that contained various kinds of poison in order to develop immunity to it.
"Now… DIE!" Lin Wu opened his mouth wide enough to engulf the entire flower head as well as the main stalk of the Purple Crested Orchid in one go.
The nt was barely able to resist for a moment before its life was consumed by Lin Wu.
The Dao Embryo and Dantian of the Purple Crested Orchid were located in the main stalk of the nt and were directly consumed by Lin Wu.
"You can have the rest, Tim." Lin Wu let the beast have his promised meal.
~KIIIII~
Tim didn''t hesitate for even a moment and jumped in to eat the remaining flower heads and vines that were now lying on the ground limply.
''Time to digest this…'' Lin Wu coiled up and let his body absorb everything.
The system was also working to analyze the Purple Crested Orchid and was updating the data.
A few minutes passed as his body started to adjust to the new nutrients. And soon enough, the system notification was heard.
~DING~

"Hoho… this was better than I thought." Lin Wu looked at the Wood Dao Trace and the Poison Dao Trace that had reached almost the maximum it could go.
98% was the highest any of his Dao Traces had reached, other than the two that he had used to make his Dao Embryo.
And once Lin Wu was done absorbing it all, his avatar had also reached the Gui n.
"Time to fulfill the promise." Lin Wu said and in the next moment, a loud sound was heard.
~BOOM~
