Chapter 21 - Killing the worm

Letting out the four chains, I control one to lock itself in place a hundred meters away, and at the same time, send the hook at the worm's head.

Seemingly noticing the vibration of the air, the worm tries to move out of the way, but I change the path of the attack enough to connect with it anyway.

Thanks to it moving back, the attack that was aimed at the top of the head only hits the very tip. Passing through its head and into the mouth.

Activating the array, its mouth is filled with a strong force field, making the spasms of its head only able to cause it more pain.

Controlling the chain to pull the worm out of the ground. I send the second chain to the second half of its body.

As the anchor hits the ground, and the hook enters the worm's body, I use it to pull the rest of the body out.

The more the chains pull, the crazier its body contorts in a vain fight to stay in the ground.

With the fight almost done, I lock its rear end with the remaining two chains, moving its entire body out of the ground, and up in the air.

Its whole body must be almost two hundred meters long, and twelve meters wide. I can't see its color, as thanks to the array in my eyes, it is just a vivid shiny red worm.

It is contorting and trying its best to unlock the hooks buried deep inside its body. But it is useless. The stability that the four chains give me made for a perfect counter for its body.

Coming out of the Moon Chaser Ray Array on the worm's head, I take out the Drilling formation, place it on the top of its head, and turn it on.

With a small noise of metal scraping on a hard surface that quickly makes way to a sound of skin being torn, the worm starts convulsing even more of pain.

In just three seconds I make my way through its body, almost falling from the bottom of its head.

The one meter wide hole is not big enough to kill such a big creature, so I make dozens of holes on its head. And after the thirtieth one, it finally dies.

Entering a half meditative state, I focus my perception inside its body, in order to locate its dantian.

Given its size, if I try to locate it without even knowing what region it is, I'll need days.

Feeling the accumulation of ki a little above its middle, I drill my way to its dantian. Taking out a ball the size of my hand, full of a rich earth ki.

Re-entering the Moon Chaser Ray, I make it fly in circles, and focus on gathering the ki from inside the dantian. Circulating it through my meridians to claim ownership, and storing it inside my dantian.

The worm's dantian is almost full of an extremely dense ki, way more powerful than mine. Each drop almost completely fills my dantian.

While doing my best to compress my ki, I chant the mantra from the Earth God Body Technique, and send the excess ki into my bones.

Cultivating this way puts an extreme stress on my meridians and dantian, but they manage to withstand it.

In less than an hour of cultivation I manage to consume all the ki from inside the worm dantian.

This single hour gave me almost triple the progress I usually get from a week of cultivation.

Looking at the huge body of the worm, still up in the air, the river of blood that washed the sands now a trickle, I don't remember reading in any book of any use for its remains, so i just let it fall to the ground, take back the chains, and make my way back to the edge of the desert, ti get some rest.

Following the path of the little compass I bought at the sect, I find my way back to the forest easily.

Finding a big enough clearing, I place down the six formation poles, and activate the array.

Going for a more glamorous house this time, I recreate a building from my previous planet, no one will see it anyway.

A cathedral.

With four fifty meters high towers on the sides, and a main building with a thirty meters high ceiling. Every spot on every wall has a piece of decoration. Statues of marble, and paintings.

Just for precautions I also set up the Dragons Construct Array, and let them roam around the cathedral, to act as an alarm.

On my trip to the desert, I've been avoiding sleeping by cultivating, but I'm not at the level where my body doesn't need any rest yet, so as soon as I finish with everything, I fall asleep.

Being pulled out of my sleep suddenly, I notice that the dragons are being attacked by something.

Getting up and walking out of the cathedral, I make my way to the source of the disturbance by entering the Moon Chaser Ray.

Three hundred meters to the south is a group of four, two men and two women. Their clothes must have some obscuring arrays, for I can't see them even through infrared. But as they attack, the lights from their attacks shine on them, making it easy to see.

Their attack mainly consists of nature related ki. Controlling the nearby forest and vegetation to atack for them.

“Stop!!” I yell as I make the Moon Chaser Ray dive down and vanish, leaving me to hit the ground heavily with my four hooves.

Controlling all the dragons to retread behind me, forming a circle of a hundred dragons above my head, I say to the group. “May I know why you are attacking my formation?”

The group takes some seconds to come back to themselves, stunned by the suddenness that everything is happening.

“We didn't even know they were constructs of a formation before trying to capture one. This was all a misunderstanding.” Says one of the men.

Making one of the dragons shine brightly and float up, I give each of them a good look.

They all have the same badge on their chest, a clear sign of being from the same sect. The badge has a tree with a dense foliage all the way to its top.

I Remember reading about this sect in some of the books in the library. If I record correctly, their name is Divine Tree Sect.

It is located not too far away to the south of the Divine Sky Sect, and is slightly inferior in power.

They seem to be a group of humans, the tallest is slightly above two meters tall, they all look slim, the men with few muscles and the women with a flat body.

I see a bit of surprise and fear as they look up at my face, and inspect my body.

“Okay, I understand, but now that you know, please stop and be on your way.” I say, looking at the man that spoke earlier.

“What makes you think you can order us to do anything?! You rascals from the Divine Sky Sect always try to act all high and mighty, but are the worst!” Says one of the women, clearly recognizing the badge on my chest.

“I've never met you, why do you speak of me as if you knew who i am? My mother taught me well, so I'll ask one more time, but it shall be the last. Please be on your way.” I say with finality in my voice.

As the woman was about to explode and speak again, one of the men stopped her, and said. “Our way is through this path that you seem to have claimed. Will you step aside and let us through?”

“Sure, just don't touch my dragons nor my house.” I say as I rearrange the dragons to keep guarding the perimeter, and after a quick jump, get inside the Ray formation and fly back home.

“Why did you let him speak to us that way? He is in the same realm as us, and we are four.” Asked the angry woman.

“Can't you see how powerful these formations are? He must be with a group, only groups can afford these types of arrays, we can't compromise our mission for such petty reasons.” The man says.

The woman is still angry, but sucks it up and complies
