BXBX NOVEL Chapter 459 - A Familiar Sensation
Originally, Lin Wu had thought that the Olive Viper King always kept on having more and more offspring so that he could have more subordinates. That was also why he thought that they had the crystal parts in their bodies.
But now it seemed like it was different than that.
\'If he hasn\'t had any offspring till now, then it must be either because he is unable to for some reason or has more requirements for it.\' Lin Wu thought to himself.
Lin Wu also wondered if this restriction was because of the bloodline itself or just the cultivation base of the beast. Since he himself had the same bloodline as that of the Olive Viper King, Lin Wu wondered if he would have to follow the same restrictions when he had his own offspring.
"Ugh! I\'ll think of this some time later." Lin Wu muttered to himself, finding it all to be weird.
"When will you be acting against the Olive Viper King then?" The Split Thorn Horn Beetle King questioned.
"I think in about ten more days." Lin Wu estimated.
He took the time needed for the avatar to reach the millennium forest in consideration, in addition to the time that might be needed for the three rulers to get ready for it. After all, not only was Lin Wu involved in it, but the two ape kings and the Split Thorn Horn Beetle king was too.
"Hmm… ten days it is then. I\'ll prepare for it thoroughly." The Split Thorn Horn Beetle king replied.
"Mmhmm, you do that. I\'ll go and talk with the Slim Arm ape king and the Demon spine ape as well." Lin Wu stated.
"Alright. I\'ll keep an eye out for the olive viper king as well. He certainly seems to be acting relatively strangely." The Split Thorn Horn Beetle king spoke.
Lin Wu nodded his head and decided to take his leave. Once he had flown away, the Split Thorn Horn Beetle king looked at his descendant.
~Sigh~
"Your master is only getting stronger and stronger… I think even the Twin Lights Liger King might not be able to hold his position for long now…" the Split Thorn Horn Beetle king spoke.
"Of course. I can feel master\'s bloodline. He is not someone that beasts of this forest can even hold up against. Even the Olive Viper King that has a bloodline similar to that of master is still inferior." The female Split Thorn Horn Beetle replied.
~Rumble~
The Split Thorn Horn Beetle king turned and went back into the nest.
"You can go and talk to the other insect beasts. Get them ready for the coming battle." The Split Thorn Horn Beetle king\'s voice echoed from the inside.
"Yes!" The female Split Thorn Horn Beetle replied before moving towards the tunnels where the other insect beasts lived.

Lin Wu took barely ten minutes to reach the territory of the two ape kings. Since they were father and son, they had merged their territories despite being rulers. That was why their territory was rather large now.
The Demon spine ape had worked in these past weeks to gather the smaller parts of the area that were unoccupied in the surroundings and gotten their own territory to expand in size more.
Lin Wu could already sense the presence of the monkey beasts in the forest below. One of the advantages that the ape kings had was that they had the best unity and teamwork out of all other rulers.
Since the slim arm ape king was once the tamed beast of a human, he knew of human tactics and skills that could be used to increase the administration of everything. This made his governance far better than that of the other rulers.
If one compared the number of subordinates among the rulers, then the Beetle king would have the most and the then two ape kings. After that would be the Olive Viper King and finally the Twin lights liger king.
The subordinates of the Twin Lights Liger king were less in number since their overall birth rate was far less than that of the other beasts. But they made up for this in their strength. They had more number of core condensation realm beasts than any other ruler.
Lin Wu could be said to be at the bottom of the ranking if one considered the number of subordinates, despite the fact that he was not a ruler himself. Though that was something that would change quite soon.
"There they are…" Lin Wu spotted the main cave of the Slim arm ape and the Demon spine ape.
He had already sensed the spirit Qi fluctuations of the Demon spine ape king which spread in a large expanse of an area. This was something that he couldn\'t do much about and was just the natural dominance of his own bloodline.
While it served as a suppression to other beasts, it could also be taken as an advantage since the Demon Spine Ape would be a walking beacon telling everyone where he was. But this time, Lin Wu could sense something familiar from the Demon spine ape\'s spirit Qi.
"Hmm… why\'s it like this?" Lin Wu wondered.
The closer he got, the more he found it to be familiar and only when he landed in front of the cave did he sense the direct aura of the Demon spine ape. And when he did, he realized why it felt familiar to him.
"The Dark attribute… no, not exactly dark. It seems to be a derivative as well…" Lin Wu muttered to himself.
Similar to the Shadow attitude that Lin Wu had felt from the skull god and the prophet of the skull god, this seemed to be linked to the dark element as well. Lin Wu understood that this must be some other derivative that he didn\'t know about.
\'Perhaps system will know a bit more…\' Lin Wu thought to himself.
~thud~thud~thud~
The sound of loud footsteps could be heard as the two ape kings appeared from the cave.
