Chapter 940 – Four Star Royal Ancient God
As Wang Lin inhaled, the purple star trembled and charged toward him. Just as it was about to be devoured by Wang Lin, the Moongazer Serpent let out a roar. Then an extremely powerful ancient god aura exploded from the Moongazer Serpent.
At the same time, Yi Muzi and Wudo Chan revealed a strange light in their eyes, and the two of them charged at the purple star. However, they both had used a lot of origin energy in the last battle, so their cultivation levels had dropped directly to Nirvana Scryer.
The two of them quickly charged at the purple star from two different angles.
There was a hint of madness inside Wang Lin’s eyes. As the two closed in, popping sounds came from his body and he grew one fold and directly swallow the star.
The moment he devoured the star, Wang Lin felt an unimaginable power explode from his body. After the power exploded in his body, he retreated like crazy.
An aura moved both inside and outside of his body, and he was filled with a powerful feeling. He felt like everything before him would be destroyed if he just threw a punch.
He let out a laugh, and his body suddenly went through a change as he retreated. Popping sounds came from his body and he suddenly became a giant hundreds of feet tall!
An extremely powerful aura suddenly filled the void. The hidden ancient god star between Wang Lin’s eyebrows condensed and the previous three and half stars immediately became four stars!
These were four real stars! A 4-star ancient god from the royal bloodline with inheritance from Tu Si. This was different from an ordinary 4-star ancient god!
The popping sounds inside Wang Lin’s body became even more intense and he directly grew until he was about 1,000 feet tall. A powerful aura spread out like crazy.
The pupils of both Yi Muzi and Wudo Chan shrank as they stared at Wang Lin.
Wang Lin clenched his fist and let out a laugh. The feeling of controlling the world filled him with confidence. At this moment, he suddenly turned around and his giant body moved past Yi Muzi and Wudo Chan. He charged directly toward the golden dragon who was staring at all of this dumbfoundedly!
The golden dragon had been injured many times and had used many spells. In addition, a large amount of his origin energy had been sealed, so the amount of power he could display had dropped directly to early stage Nirvana Scryer!
Looking at Wang Lin’s 1,000-foot-tall body coming at him, the golden dragon quickly shrank back into a dragon-robed person. He then retreated while his hands formed a seal, causing the five talismans around his head to rapidly rotate, and he shouted, “Poison Fire!”
After he spoke, one of the talismans above his head began burning. A green flame containing powerful poison shot toward Wang Lin.
Wang Lin’s expression was different. Right now he was no longer a cultivator but an ancient god who had obtained the inheritance of power and the inheritance of knowledge. A 4-star royal ancient god!
Although Wang Lin’s avatar’s power was completely sealed and he could only use the power of his ancient god body, a 4-star ancient god was powerful enough to kill this golden dragon!
The poison fire contained poison that was deadly to cultivators but was really insignificant to an ancient god. When Wang Lin closed in, his giant fist smashed down.
Boom! A sonic boom occurred and the punch created a gust of wind. The moment the green fire arrived, it was extinguished.
Large amounts of green smoke appeared and was pushed back at the dragon-robed man.
The dragon-robed middle-aged man’s expression changed greatly, and his hands formed a seal and he shouted, “Tribute Water! Ruined Metal! Punishment Wood! Buried Earth!”
As he roared, the five talismans above his head all shined and moved without any wind. Then a blue sea suddenly appeared and smashed toward Wang Lin.
This sea was the Tribute Water, and it brought the power of an army, arriving with a roar. However, it wasn’t able to stop Wang Lin’s 4-star ancient god punch!
The instant the sea arrived, it collapsed into countless drops of water and was pushed back. This sea indeed did have the power of an army, but Wang Lin’s punch was several times more powerful, so now could the sea not collapse?
The moment the Tribute Water disintegrated, there was a flash of gold as the sword formed by the dragon scales shot out toward Wang Lin.
His fist landed, and with a bang, the dragon scale sword trembled. It began cracking at the tip, as if there was a force peeling away all the dragon scales.
After the dragon scale sword, a black log followed immediately after. This huge log gave off the scent of blood and had countless souls of celestials in it. As the mournful cries echoed, countless ripples attacked Wang Lin.
After the Punishment Wood, large amounts of black soil formed a black storm that charged at Wang Lin.
Wang Lin’s expression was still indifferent, and his right fist landed on the Punishment Wood. The log was split in half and wasn’t able to stop his fist in the slightest!
The black storm formed by the black soil suddenly collapsed the moment the log was split in half.
Nothing could stop the punch from Wang Lin’s 4-star royal ancient god body!
After shattering all five elements, this punch landed directly on the dragon-robed man. There was a heaven-shaking explosion as the dragon-robed man cough out blood and was knocked back.
All of this happened in a short period of time. From the view of Yi Muzi and company, Wang Lin’s giant body had taken a step, thrown a punch, and the dragon-robed man was knocked backward.
Popping sounds came from inside the dragon-robed man and a large amount of blood spray out from his body. If they were outside and his cultivation wasn’t sealed, it would’ve been very difficult for Wang Lin to injure him!
However, here, Wang Lin held all the advantages. This man in the dragon robe had most of his cultivation sealed, so he had to retreat.
Wang Lin’s eyes were indifferent as he moved forward and kicked with his right foot. The face of the man in the dragon robe was ashen. Unwillingness filled his eyes as his hand formed a seal and he shouted, “Power of the Five Elements!”
After he spoke, the five talismans over his head rotated rapidly and the aura of the five elements appeared and formed an illusory crown. Then the power of the five elements shot out at Wang Lin.
Wang Lin’s eyes lit up and his hands reached out. Although his body had grown, his bag of holding was still with him. While it is really small compared to his body, he could still open it.
After he reached toward it, a crown appeared in Wang Lin’s hand!
The moment crown appeared, the dragon-robed man’s expression changed greatly. Disbelief filled his eyes as he exclaimed, “The dragon saint’s five element crown! How could you possibly have this!?”
“It even has a soul!” The dragon-robed man was flustered as he gave up on his spell and retreated. At the same time, he took out a wooden token and directly crushed it.
The wooden token turned into smoke and seemed to open a passage in this void. He was about to enter the passage.
Just as he was about to flee, the crown in Wang Lin’s hand flew out. As it rotated, it gave off five-colored light. Then a rose appeared, and as it bloomed, the shadow of a woman appeared.
The woman was filled with arrogance and was an absolute beauty. After she appeared, she pointed her jade-like hand at the dragon-robed man!
With this point of her finger, the dragon-robed man let out a miserable roar and could no longer escape. It was as if he was being pulled, and he turned into a ray of light and was absorbed by the crown.
The beautiful woman turned around and carefully looked at Wang Lin. She opened her mouth as if she wanted to say something, but no sound came out, and she eventually disappeared.
This scene didn’t only shock Yi Muzi and company, it even shocked Wang Lin. He quickly retrieved the crown and coldly stared at Yi Muzi and Wudo Chan!
These two people now posed no threat to Wang Lin. Their cultivation had already been seriously sealed and would continue to be sealed.
Then Wang Lin’s gaze turned to the Moongazer Serpent that gave off the aura of an ancient god. Then he opened his mouth and let out a roar!
The roar from his 1,000 foot body was no weaker than the Moongazer Serpent’s as it was the sound of an ancient god. When he let out the roar, it was heaven-shaking; even this void didn’t seem to be able to stop the roar of an ancient god!
Endless thunderous rumbles formed and countless sonic booms spread out. There was only one meaning contained within this roar in the language of the ancient gods, and that was “challenge!”
Every child ancient god had to challenge another ancient god as a passage to adulthood. Wang Lin, who held the inheritance of knowledge of Tu Si, knew this very well!
For the ancient god clan, in order to go from three stars to four stars, one required the aura of an adult ancient god; otherwise, it would be impossible to advance. This was something that couldn’t be changed! Once an ancient god obtained four stars, they would have the qualification for adulthood!
And this was the qualification to challenge!
His roar was to tell the ancient god inside the Moongazer Serpent that he wanted to challenge him!
The moment Wang Lin’s roar came out, a roar came out from inside the Moongazer Serpent. The Moongazer Serpent opened its mouth and countless tentacles came out. There was a person entangled within the tentacles.
This person was the same size as a normal cultivator, but with five blurred stars rotating on his forehead. He was entangled by tentacles as he stared at Wang Lin.
“My clan member, I accept your challenge for your passage to adulthood!”
The moment the 5-star ancient god spoke, the tentacles around it all loosened one by one. He then moved forward and walked three steps!
After the first step, his body grew until he was 300 feet tall, and a powerful aura surged out. Then, after the second step, he directly became a 1,000 foot giant, and an ancient aura surrounded the area. When he took the third step, he became 3,000 feet tall and was like a god!
Chapter 941 – Treasure of the Royal Clan
Yi Muzi was shocked when he saw all of this. He never would’ve thought that this Xu Mu had been hiding such a shocking secret! This person was actually an ancient god!
When he was sent here by the head elder of the family, he gained details about the Moongazer Serpent and made prepared himself thoroughly. Although he was shocked, he didn’t forget his task. After watching the 5-star ancient god walk out of the Moongazer Serpent’s mouth, he didn’t hesitate to charge inside.
He charged directly toward the Moongazer Serpent’s mouth. Although his cultivation had fallen greatly, his speed was not slow at all. In a flash, he disappeared into the Moongazer Serpent’s mouth.
Wudo Chan’s expression was a bit complex. He had looked through some records in the Alliance and accidently found out the identity of the Moongazer Serpent. So he knew there was something inside the Moongazer Serpent called the Moon Flower!
“The records said that the Moongazer Serpent’s Moon Flower can be used to refine a Pseudo Nirvana Void treasure. If I can obtain it and refine a Pseudo Nirvana Void treasure, then I can replace Esteemed Xuan Bao in the elder group!”
He clenched his teeth and chased after Yi Muzi. Just as the Moongazer Serpent closed its mouth, he entered.
Only Qing Shui didn’t enter the Moongazer Serpent’s mouth. He frowned as he silently watched Wang Lin and the huge 5-star ancient god.
“Clan member, my name is Lou Chen!” The 5-star ancient god’s eyes were filled with an ancient aura as he stepped forward. He didn’t form a fist but hit with his palm.
There was a heaven-shaking sound and a giant handprint formed from Lou Chen’s hand and shot straight toward Wang Lin!
Wang Lin’s eyes narrowed. This handprint was similar to the one in the Celestial Realm[1], but also very different. It shot directly toward Wang Lin, and Lou Chen’s hand followed directly after the handprint.
Wang Lin took a deep breath. The four stars on his head rotated, his right hand pointed up, and the ancient gods’ language came out from his mouth. Since he was now a 4-star ancient god, he could use some of the ancient gods’ spells! Wang Lin had waited a very long time for this day!
In an instant, a giant vortex appeared before him.
“Ancient God’s Weapon!” As Wang Lin roared, bursts of purple lightning came out of the vortex and then a long spear flew out. This spear was illusory, and it seemed like it was formed by the purple lightning.
Wang Lin grabbed the spear and swept forward. It collided with the incoming handprint. A loud rumble was triggered when they collided, and the handprint was cut in half.
However, Wang Lin’s spear was immediately grabbed by Lou Chen. With a squeeze, thunder came out from the spear and then the spear collapsed!
Wang Lin took a step out. Although his body was weak compared to Lou Chen’s, he still gave off an imposing aura. His right hand formed a fist and he threw it out.
Lou Chen looked at Wang Lin with a complex gaze. He had been forced to consume a star to refine Ji Xiantian into a puppet. Although he had left the Moongazer Serpent’s body, there were unspeakable difficulties. Even now, he didn’t know if he was the Moongazer Serpent or an ancient god.
He had assimilated with this Moongazer Serpent for far too long.
His mind was invaded by the Moongazer Serpent. In his view, he wasn’t worthy of being called an ancient god, he was merely the puppet of the Moongazer Serpent.
He had always struggled between whether he should pass the inheritance to Wang Lin or devour Wang Lin. While he was struggling when he voluntarily gave out a star to Ji Xiantian, perhaps in his heart he meant to gift that star to Wang Lin.
At this moment, he took a deep breath, his right hand formed a fist, and he threw a punch.
There was a bang, and Wang Lin felt his right arm go numb and he was forced back. Lou Chen was also forced back several steps, and the stars between his eyebrows became even more blurred.
The reason Wang Lin had challenged Lou Chen was because he knew that even though Luo Chen wasn’t an child ancient god, he was extremely weak right now!
The stars between Lou Chen’s brows being blurry proved his point. As opposed to Wang Lin, who only had four stars, the stars were solid and shined brightly. More importantly, Wang Lin was of the royal bloodline!
Even if an ordinary ancient god had devoured Lou Chen’s star and their cultivation level became higher than Wang Lin’s, they would still be no match for the royal clan’s spells. The royal clan of the ancient gods were real kings. Not only could they use royal clan spells, they also had royal clan weapons!
As he retreated, Wang Lin took a step forward and charged out at Lou Chen. The two continued to exchange bombardments of fists with each other.
Ripples echoed and loud rumbles spread across the void. At the start of the battle, Wang Lin was at a disadvantage, but the more he fought, the fiercer he became.
Wang Lin gradually grew familiar with the power of a 4-star ancient god as he fought. Oftentimes, a powerful storm would be set off with each punch. The punches also contained the spells of the ancient gods, so his battle with Lou Chen became even more intense!
With a bang, the two parted. As Wang Lin retreated, he raised his large hands and his eyes lit up. He began chanting in the language of the ancient gods and then the shadow of a towering ancient god appeared before him. It immediately let out a roar toward Lou Chen!
The complex gaze in Lou Chen’s face became even more intense, and he also raised his hands. The shadow of an ancient god appeared behind him, and it was taller than 100,000 feet. It was as if a real giant had just appeared out of nowhere!
However, this giant’s body was extremely bloated; it looked more like a Moongazer Serpent than an ancient god!
What was even more terrifying was that there was armor around this giant, and just its imposing aura was enough to make ordinary cultivators lose their wits!
As the armoed giant roared, Wang Lin and Lou Chen closed in on each other once more, causing explosions to echo once more. This time it wasn’t just the two of them fighting, even the giants behind them began to fight.
As Wang Lin laughed, his left hand reached out and recalled that weapon he saw Tuo Sen use in the ancient god’s body. Ancient God Tu Si’s life treasure, the God Slaying Spear!
As he thought about the spear, the language of the ancient gods came out from his mouth. Although he wasn’t able to call out the true body of Tu Si’s life treasure with his 4-star power, he could call out an illusion.
As Wang Lin reached out, large amounts of red mist appeared out of nowhere. This red mist churned and gathered in Wang Lin’s hand. Then a 1,000-foot-long spear suddenly appeared!
This spear was 1,000 feet long and 10 feet wide and it flashed red. It was the very famous God Slaying Spear of the ancient god clan. Even the void began to twist around it, and as the spear gently swept by, a net-like object appeared!
The net-like object in the void was formed by the powerful formation that cut off origin energy! Normally, it was impossible for it to appear, but under the swing of the God Slaying Spear, it was forced to show its original form!
The God Slaying Spear was something only the royal clan could use! When a royal clan ancient god reached adulthood, they would chose a weapon. These weapons were passed down from previous generations, but only the royal clan could use them!
When Lou Chen saw the God Slaying Spear, the complex gaze in his eyes became even stronger. He could tell that Wang Lin’s ancient god inheritance was extremely noble. He speculated that this person was a junior that had received the royal inheritance and cultivated as an ancient god on his own.
However, after he truly saw the God Slaying Spear, he was not only able to confirm his speculation, he also knew where Wang Lin’s inheritance came from!
“Tu Si… I didn’t think even he had died…” Lou Chen let out a sigh. The complex emotions in his eyes disappeared, and it was replaced with a gentle gaze.
“Tu Si’s inheritor, let me see how much of this illusory God Slaying Spear’s power you can use!” It was as if the knot in Lou Chen’s heart had been loosened. While laughing, his right hand reached out and the bone in his right arm began to move.
Bone spikes suddenly came out from his skin, and in an instant, Lou Chen’s right arm was covered in bone spikes. They extended like crazy, and in the blink of an eye, they were 1,000 feet long. They formed a extremely strange yet ferocious weapon!
Wang Lin gripped the illusory God Slaying Spear and battling intent filled his body. As he held the spear, the feeling that he was Tu Si appeared once more. Right now Lou Chen was the only person in his vision!
“I’m Ancient God Wang Lin!” Wang Lin stepped out and the God Slaying Spear swept forward. He heard popping sounds and then a large net appeared before him.
This net was illusory and it covered the entire void.
Lou Chen laughed and also closed in. The stinger formed by his right arm swung forward and directly matched Wang Lin’s God Slaying Spear.
There was a bang when the two of them collided. Then popping sounds echoed as the two continued to fight. Their violent battle caused a net-like object to appear.
Battle intent filled Wang Lin’s eyes, and during the battle, he threw the God Slaying Spear. Then both of his hands met before him with his thumb and forefinger linked, forming a diamond. He shouted, “God Slaying Seal!”
This God Slaying Seal was one of the spells of the ancient gods, and it was something only the royal bloodline had!
The God Slaying Spear flew out like lightning toward Lou Chen. At the same time, the God Slaying Seal shot out in a diamond shape and flashed forward.
Lou Chen laughed and shouted, “Good!” He waved his right hand and collided with the God Slaying Spear, creating an amazing shockwave. Then the God Slaying Seal arrived and an unimaginable storm was set off in the void.
This storm swept across this void as a large amount of the net revealed itself. As the net flashed, two ghostly lights suddenly appeared under it.
The ghostly lights revealed a cold and ruthless gaze. It was as if it was looking through the net from the outside.
“Moongazer Serpent… Ancient god…”
Chapter 942 – Heaven Defying Bead Trembles
The moment that cold and ghostly light appeared, Qing Shui’s originally calm expression changed drastically. He stared at where the ghostly light appeared and his eyes shined.
However, that ghostly light immediately disappeared as if it never existed.
Whether it was the ghostly light’s appearance or disappearance, Qing Shui actually didn’t see anything. However, just at that instant, there was a terrifying feeling that made all the hair on his body stood up. He had never had this feeling, even when he met his teacher, Bai Fan.
However, subconsciously, he felt as if he had felt this before. This contradicting feeling made it so Qing Shui couldn’t find the reason.
His expression was gloomy and there was a flash of coldness in his eyes. He remained vigilant and stared ahead while searching his memories for the answer to this contradicting feeling.
As Lou Chen laughed, he suddenly retreated from the God Slaying Seal. Large amounts of the bone spikes on his arms had collapsed, but he was excited. He looked at Wang Lin with admiration.
After the bombardment, Wang Lin also retreated. The God Slaying Spear in his hand was almost transparent now. Although he looked normal, he was greatly shocked. Earlier, Wang Lin clearly felt the heaven defying bead that had been fused with his origin soul and been dormant for a long time unexpectedly trembled for a moment.
This was an extremely rare occurrence. When the Heaven Defying Bead trembled, a sliver of mysterious power came out from the bead and went into Wang Lin’s body. This caused his eyes to shine blue for that instant.
Borrowing the moment of retreat, Wang Lin’s gaze swept his surroundings. At this moment, it was as if hundreds of thousands of bolts of thunder had exploded in his mind. He saw the ghostly light under the net that not even Qing Shui could see!
When the ruthlessness from the ghostly light landed in Wang Lin’s eyes, it was as if he had devoured a piece of nevermelting ice. His entire body was cold inside and out. The two ghostly lights seemed to notice Wang Lin’s gaze. They revealed a trace of shock and gradually disappeared.
“What the hell is this?!” As Wang Lin retreated, his mind shook. When he saw Qing Shui’s gaze, he knew Qing Shui must have noticed it too.
At this moment, Lou Chen laughed and closed in once more. He raised his right hand and mercilessly gripped. The five stars on his forehead rotated. In the blink of an eye, the five stars flew off his forehead and embedded onto Lou Chen’s fist.
When his fist arrived, the five stars appeared on his fist. They rotated rapidly until they formed a vortex. As Lou Chen’s fist closed in, the vortex formed a storm.
“It looks like Lou Chen didn’t notice the abnormality. He is a 5-star ancient god. yet he unexpectedly didn’t notice! Instead, it was Qing Shui who did!”
Wang Lin felt a lot of dread toward the two ghostly lights under the net. At this moment, Lou Chen’s right fist swept by. Wang Lin’s hand immediately swung forward and the power of a 4-star ancient god surged out. Wang Lin borrowed his power to change directions and moved far away from the net.
“I noticed it because of the mysterious power from the heaven defying bead. Qing Shui must have his own secret for being able to detect it. But just what exactly is hidden inside the void?”
Popping sounds echoed as Wang Lin and Lou Chen exchanged moves. Their collisions turned into endless rumbles that echoed across the void. As Lou Chen’s fist continued to bombard Wang Lin, the stars on his hand produced a suction force that actually pulled Wang Lin in.
Wang Lin’s eyes lit up and the four star between his eyebrows spun rapidly. They merged into his right hand as he met Lou Chen’s incoming fist.
If the battle of two ancient gods was placed in normal space, it would immediately cause the space to collapse. However, they weren’t affected here. As the rumbles continued, Wang Lin retreated and escaped the suction force from Lou Chen’s fist.
Lou Chen took a step and instantly closed in on Wang Lin while waving his fist. Countless fierce bone spikes appeared from his body. They were filled with the power of an ancient god and shot toward Wang Lin like arrows.
Wang Lin’s right hand shook the God Slaying Spear and swept it forward. Without any hesitation, the language of the ancient gods came from his mouth.
“Origin Ancient God, Borrowing the Power of the Ancestors!”
The moment he spoke, a large vortex appeared before him and absorbed all the bone spikes. The moment the vortex appeared, an earth-shattering roar echoed.
For the first time, excitement appeared in Lou Chen’s eyes. He smiled and said, “The origin ancient god spell that borrows power from the ancestors that only the royal clan can use. I, Lou Chen, haven’t seen it in a long time.”
As he spoke, he stopped in the void and his hands formed a ring. An illusory ancient god star appeared above his forehead. Shortly after, one star after another appeared. When Lou Chen moved his hand, the 5 stars emitted a gentle light and began to rotate. Then something flew out from the ring.
“Ancient God Beast Spirit!” Lou Chen shouted. Then the thing that flew out flashed and turned into a giant elephant!
This elephant was completely black and its long fur looked extremely ferocious. Its two long tusks gave off a white glow and its rough trunk was like a powerful arm. The elephant lifted its body as it let out a roar and mercilessly stomped down.
This created violent rumbles, and a savage flame came out from this giant elephant’s body like crazy.
Not only did the ancient god clan members have bodies that could destroy worlds, they also had incomparable magic spells!
This beast spirit was one of the powerful spells of the ancient gods. Only 5-star ancient gods could use it, and it had to be refined for a long time before they could use it.
Almost every adult ancient god had this spell. The first thing every ancient god did when they reached adulthood was find their own beast spirit to refine.
Tu Si also had a beast spirit. Back in the Land of the Ancient God, the beast that prevented Tuo Sen from obtaining the inheritance of knowledge was Tu Si’s beast spirit!
At this moment, Lou Chen used the spirit beast spell, and the giant elephant charged forward. The vortex before Wang Lin suddenly changed. As the giant elephant closed in, a giant fist came out from the vortex.
This fist had blue skin. When the fist came out, it collided with the giant elephant.
Boom!!
An unimaginable sound spread across the void, creating a storm that could cause the world to collapse.
The giant elephant let out a roar and its large body was pushed back. One of its two tusks broke in half and dissipated into dust.
Lou Chen also retreated, and the admiration in his eyes became even stronger.
Wang Lin coughed out a mouthful of blood and quickly retreated. He avoided the impact from the ripple and the net.
Lou Chen looked at Wang Lin and slowly said, “You are qualified to become an ancient god!”
The moment he spoke, the Moongazer Serpent in the distance revealed a demonic glow in its eyes. It then let out a roar. This roar caused Lou Chen’s body to tremble, and struggle filled his eyes. Large amounts of veins bulged and his expression became ferocious. Looking at the Moongazer Serpent, he roared, “Damn animal, don’t interfere with me anymore!”
The Moongazer Serpent’s eyes became cold and its roar became even more intense. There was a will inside that roar that made Lou Chen tremble and reveal a painful expression.
However, just at this moment, a shocking change suddenly occurred. A large portion of the net appeared in the space where the Moongazer Serpent was and those two ghostly lights appeared once more!
Qing Shui had been watching all of this closely. At this moment, his eyes lit up and he stared at the net near the Moongazer Serpent. His face turned extremely gloomy.
Wang Lin also saw this, and his pupils shrank.
As for Lou Chen, he also noticed that something was wrong.
The Moongazer Serpent’s large body suddenly trembled and it let out a roar. There was confusion and fear in its eyes, and it was about to rush out from this place.
The flashing net closest to the Moongazer Serpent sudden tore. The instant it tore, the opening widened and revealed a vast expanse!
It was as if the seal in this void was ripped open, and the two ghostly lights charged out.
The moment that ghostly lights charged out, Wang Lin, Qing Shui, and Lou Chen were all startled!
“Teacher!” Qing Shui’s eyes was filled with disbelief.
“Tu Si!!” Wang Lin gasped. His scalp felt numb and he was about to flee.
“Ancestor!!” Lou Chen stared at the thing that charged out of the crack and was startled.
All three of them saw different things. Seven-colored gas came out from the crack. This gas was very dense and surrounded the Moongazer Serpent before mercilessly dragging it toward the crack.
The Moongazer Serpent struggled and let out angry roars. However, its large body seemed to have lost all power to resist and could only be dragged into the crack.
As the Moongazer Serpent was dragged in, the crack quickly expanded.
At this moment, not only did the Moongazer Serpent’s angry roar lose its effect, even Yi Muzi and Wudo Chan, who were inside the Moongazer Serpent, were shocked. The two of them were moving quickly through the Moongazer Serpent when it was filled with the seven-colored gas. As the seven-colored gas filled the Moongazer Serpent’s body, the two of them found that the rate at which they were losing origin energy had reached a horrifying degree.
Large amounts of seven-colored gas came out through the crack. The gas split into three and went straight for Wang Lin, Lou Chen, and Qing Shui!
Chapter 943 – Heavens’ Dao?
Lou Chen had the deepest feeling regarding the Moongazer Serpent’s pain as they had assimilated. Without hesitation, he stepped forward and threw a punch.
This punch turned into a powerful rumble, and it was several times stronger than when he fought Wang Lin! The giant elephant let out a roar and turned into a black light that wrapped around Lou Chen’s fist. This caused the roar of the elephant to echo as he punched. The elephant reformed before the punch and charged into the seven-colored gas.
There was a heaven shaking sound and a shocking shockwave spread out. The seven-colored gas was pushed back a bit but quickly spread even more and devoured the giant elephant.
As the seven-colored gas closed in on Qing Shui, he didn’t retreat and instead his eyes turned cold. His right hand pointed between his eyebrows and a purple-red line appeared and formed an arc.
When Qing Shui saw that seven-colored gas, it was as if a flash of lightning crossed his mind, and he shouted, “I have spent my life cultivating as a celestial and have refined seven Ji Realm roots, allowing me to become a Celestial Lord. I have slaughtered countless people but have never fought the heavens’ dao!”
The moment the purple-red curved line appeared, it emitted a sizzling sound and an extremely powerful force came out from it.
“Heavens’ dao?” A low voice came from the crack and a chuckle came through. From the sound of the laugh, the person who spoke wasn’t a old man!
“Compare to you, who came from the sealed realm, I can indeed be considered your heavens’ dao! The Moongazer Serpent, two ancient gods, and you, who cultivates the Ji Realm, come with me to the place of the heavens’ dao. This can be considered good fortune for you all!”
Qing Shui’s eyes became cold and he charged out as the seven-colored gas closed in. The purple-red line arched through the seven-colored gas, creating popping sounds.
As for Wang Lin, the seven-colored gas also closed in on him. This seven-colored gas contained a powerful sealing force that prevented him from retreating. Killing intent flash across his eyes as he waved the God Slaying Spear in his hand and shouted, “Collapse!”
There was a loud rumble as the first 100 feet of the 1000 feet God Slaying Spear collapsed, creating a storm that shot toward the seven-colored gas.
The Moongazer Serpent’s roar became even more intense and it continued to struggle. The seven-colored gas surrounding its body looked like a seven-colored sun; it looked very beautiful.
However, the mournful roar filled this beauty with strangeness.
Half of the Moongaze Serpent’s giant body had been pulled in, and was still being pulled in. Thanks to this seven-colored gas, it had lost all power to resist. Even as it struggled, it revealed a terrifying despair.
Lou Chen had assimilated with the Moongazer Serpent, this roar pierced through him. As he rushed out, the five stars rotated and one of them flew out and collapsed!
Shattered star of an ancient god!
The star shattered and a crazed power appeared in the void. Just as the power of the shattered star was about to spread, Lou Chen mercilessly inhaled!
As he inhaled, the power of the shattered star entered his mouth. Roars of pain came from his mouth as his body expanded from 3,000 feet to more than 7,000 feet!
With one step, he broke free from the seven-colored gas and arrived next to the crack. As he roared, his powerful fist punched out. As he punched, one of the four stars between his eyebrows shattered!
The star that shattered formed an unimaginable impact that entered his right arm and allowed him to launch a punch at peak power!
This punch borrowed the power of two shattered stars. This allowed Lou Chen to reach power just short of his peak!
As his roar echoed, 10 giant elephants appeared and charged forward.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
At this instant, the void was filled with this majestic sound. His voice was so intense that even Wang Lin felt his ears sting. The void under his feet seemed to be impacted by a powerful force. If one looked from above, it would look as if the void within hundreds of thousands of kilometers had been scraped open, revealing the flashing net below!
Even the seven-colored gas around Wang Lin and Qing Shui was pushed back. The crack that was swallowing the Moongazer Serpent was ripped open and the seven-colored gas was pushed back, revealing the figure hidden inside the seven-colored gas.
The figure was completely exposed. He was a youth that looked very ordinary, but his eyes were extremely cold.
What stood out about him was a crescent moon mark between his eyebrows!
He coldly looked at Wang Lin’s group and remained neutral toward Lou Chen’s almost peak attack. He raised his right hand and calmly said, “Sealed Realm’s 99th formation, Devour Formation, activate!”
After he spoke, a rapidly rotating vortex appeared before the youth. The vortex was dark and it was like a mouth that could devour all. It expanded like crazy and seemed to devour Lou Chen’s punch!
However, just this vortex wasn’t enough to dissolve Lou Chen’s ancient god power. After it devoured, the vortex rumbled and immediately collapsed.
The youth’s expression changed and he retreated. Then his hands formed a seal and he shouted, “The Sealed Realm’s 9th formation, Heaven Splitting Formation, activate!” As he spoke, he bit the tip of his tongue and spat out a large mouthful of blood. This blood entered the crack before causing specks of light to fly out and condense into a large war axe!
The moment the axe appeared, a pressure that could shake the heavens appeared and large amounts of collapse appeared out of nowhere.
The war axe flashed and charged toward Lou Chen. It collided with Lou Chen’s fist. As the resulting rumble echoed, the war axe collapsed and Lou Chen coughed out blood. After being knocked back a few steps, one of the three remaining ancient god stars on Lou Chen’s forehead shattered and he rushed out once more!
The shatter of the third star caused storms around his body. His body went from 7,000 feet directly to more than 10,000 feet tall. He was now a true ancient god giant! Although it was far from his peak, he already held unimaginable power!
Wang Lin’s eyes lit up. If Lou Chen lost, he would be in danger. He took a step forward and his 4-star royal ancient god power surged out like crazy. He threw the God Slaying Spear in his hand and then formed a diamond with his hands and pressed forward!
A diamond light flashed out and merged with the God Slaying Spear. It penetrated the void and shot toward the youth.
There was also Qing Shui. Without pause, his hands formed a seal and seven arcs of Ji Realm threads connected together and quickly shot forward.
As Lou Chen roared, his 10,000 foot body charged forward. His eyes were fearless as he threw his bombardment of punches.
The peak attack of the three caused the youth to panic and his pupils to shrink. At this moment, a withered hand reached out and pulled the youth back. A while-haired old man walked out and stood before the youth.
“Master!” As soon as the youth spoke, the old man shouted, “Shut up! Who allowed you to open the Sealed Realm!?” As the old man spoke, his hand formed a seal, then he said, “Requesting the formation to activate the Heaven Splitting Axe!”
The moment the old man spoke, specks of light appeared within hundreds, thousands, tens of thousands of kilometers. These specks of light gathered like crazy toward where Wang Lin’s group was.
They were simply too fast! Their speed broke the limit of law; they were even several times faster than the peak attacks of Wang Lin’s group.
The entire void seemed to be lit up; the originally dark void was filled with lines of crystal light. In an instant, these specks of light had already taken shape.
A war axe 1,000 feet long suddenly appeared! This war axe was formed by specks of light and was filled with a primal aura. As this aura spread out, the war axe suddenly descended!
It appeared before the old man and directly met the peak attacks of Wang Lin’s group.
Bang! Bang! Bang! As a crazy rumble echoed, Qing Shui coughed out a mouthful of blood and was knocked away. Wang Lin trembled and cracks appeared on his body. The four stars on his forehead rapidly rotated to offset the unimaginable impact, but he was also knocked back.
Lou Chen’s body gradually shrank and the power of the shattered stars quickly dissipated. His eyes were filled with sadness as he looked at the axe in the sky and shouted, “Wang Lin, does your inheritance know about this object? It is the holy treasure of the ancient god clan!”
The Heaven Splitting Axe exploded into countless specks of light, causing the fragmented net to quickly recover.
The old man outside the net revealed a strange look. Then he waved his hand and the specks of light turned into three large hands. One of them grabbed the Moongazer Serpent and mercilessly pulled it outside the net!
The other hand reached toward Lou Chen. Right now he simply had no power to resist! The third giant hand reached toward Wang Lin.
Just at this instant, decisiveness filled Lou Chen’s eyes, as if he was determined to do something. The moment the giant hand grabbed him, his right hand reached toward between his eyebrows. He took the last two ancient god stars and threw them toward Wang Lin with a wry smile on his face. His gaze toward Wang Lin was filled with never-before-seen gentleness. It was like an elder in the family looking at their own child.
“Your challenge to adulthood was excellent! Not even my child was as excellent as you… All children of the ancient god clan receive a gift after their challenge. These two ancient god stars will be my gift to you!”
Lou Chen’s voice was filled with a trace of relief and sadness as he looked at the void. He was grabbed by the giant hand and pulled outside the net…
“Ancient god… Ancient god… You can reverse the heavens, but you can’t reverse life… I, Lou Chen, am not an ancient god, but a lonely god…”
Chapter 944 – Heaven Defying Bead Reappears!
Lou Chen’s sad voice echoed across the void and landed in Wang Lin’s ears. Wang Lin’s mind trembled and he felt some kind of resonance!
Lou Chen had dared to defy the heavens and wasn’t afraid of heaven or earth. However, he wasn’t able to reverse his own fate, which was the Moongazer Serpent!
He was assimilated with the Moongazer Serpent and had most of his ancient god power absorbed. This forced him to revert from a peak 8-star ancient god back into child form. All of this was a fate he couldn’t change. He had been trapped inside the Moongazer Serpent for tens of thousands of years, living a life that was worse than death. With the pride of the ancient gods, the humiliation he suffered in his heart revealed his desolation.
The ancient god clan was an extremely proud clan, and this pride refused to allow anything to trample on them. Tu Si was the same, and Lou Chen was also the same.
Wang Lin silently pondered and his heart filled with pain. However, there was respect in his eyes; he respected Ancient God Lou Chen!
At this moment, there was a whistle in the void as the two ancient god stars moved at an extreme speed toward Wang Lin. Wang Lin grabbed the two stars, and at that moment, the stars merged with Wang Lin.
At this instant, an unimaginable ancient god power filled Wang Lin’s body. This ancient god power was too strong, and popping sounds came from Wang Lin’s body. In the blink of an eye, his body grew several times larger. He was now more than 3,000 feet tall!
All the veins on his body bulged as if there was a power inside him that wanted to tear him apart. Filled with pain, Wang Lin charged forward and let out a roar!
This roar turned into endless sonic booms and shot forward. It also contained the might of a royal ancient god, which caused the giant golden hand coming at him to pause.
Wang Lin could clearly feel the power of the ancient gods from the two stars Lou Chen threw at him surge through his entire body.
This ancient god power was equivalent to Wang Lin absorbing spiritual energy from countless planets for tens of thousands of years. It was as if his body was going to collapse under his power.
That feeling of his body being torn apart made him almost crazy, so he let out roars to vent himself. There was a trace of violent pressure within these roars!
The stars rapidly rotated between his eyebrows until it was impossible to see how many stars there were. Wang Lin let out a roar as he took a step and mercilessly threw a punch.
This punch immediately set off a storm. The void before him was pushed back as if it was being ripped open, and a powerful force swept forward.
The large hand formed by the golden light paused due to the punch Wang Lin released. However, with a heaven-shaking bang Wang Lin’s hand and the golden hand collided.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
This bombardment of punches caused both sides to stagger. The crazy amount of impacts caused the giant hand to retreat.
Wang Lin’s body trembled a bit and he retreated a few steps. At this point, his eyes gradually calmed down. At this moment, he no longer felt pain from his body but instead felt comfortable. He clenched his fists as if he was holding the world!
There was no giant hand reaching for Qing Shui, but his eyes had a strange gaze as he looked at the two people on the other side of the net. His eyes were filled with confusion, but there was also a trace of struggle in them.
It was as if he was in a trace, and pain came from his head. It felt as if there was a hidden memory that was mercilessly opened when he saw those two.
The flashing net in the void was rapidly recovering. Just as it was about to recover completely, there was a flash of coldness in the eyes of the old man outside the net. He stared at Wang Lin’s giant body, especially at the four rapidly rotating stars with a vortex in the middle. Specks of golden light scattered from Wang Lin’s body and gathered at the vortex, causing waves of powerful ancient god power to spread out.
There was a drop of black liquid that appeared and disappeared within the vortex.
“He really is a royal ancient god!” The old man’s eyes shined brightly.
“A 5-star royal ancient god that has just awakened! I didn’t expect there to still be royal ancient gods in the Sealed Realm. If the elder council finds out about this, it will set off a great storm! Fortunately, this person is only in the awakening state. If he had fully awakened and reached six stars, then even I would have to retreat!” The old man gasped and greed filled his eyes.
“If I can absorb his royal ancient god power, I will be able to occupy a seat in the elder council!” The crescent moon mark flashed between the old man’s eyebrows and he clenched his teeth. Then his hands formed a seal and the crescent moon mark actually flew out, forming an 10-foot-tall crescent moon imprint!
“This old man is a member of the ancient Moon Devourer clan of the Immemorial Celestial Clan. Today, I’ve come across the greatest opportunity in my life! No matter what, I can’t let him go!” As the old man roared, the crescent moon mark flashed like crazy and charged forward.
Just as the net in the void was about to withdraw completely, the crescent moon mark suddenly drilled out. It grew in the void until it was several thousand feet tall and was comparable to Wang Lin.
“Moon Celestial Devours God!” The old man’s eyes suddenly widened and a large amount of veins bulge on his face. As the veins extended, they gathered under the crescent moon mark, making him look very ferocious.
The moment he spoke, the crescent moon mark seemed to boil and gave off a demonic light. Then a giant mouth appeared on the crescent moon mark and charged to devour Wang Lin.
Endless suction force came from inside the big mouth. This suction was extremely strange; it was as if countless threads had come out to drill into Wang Lin’s body.
The mouth from the crescent moon was so fast that it closed in on Wang Lin in an instant. Wang Lin simply had no chance to react. As the endless suction filled the area, it directly devoured Wang Lin.
Wang Lin’s figure no longer existed in the void, the only thing that remained was the huge crescent moon mark. The old man was very excited when the crescent moon mark rushed back. He wanted to make it out of the net before it completely withdrew.
The old man’s laughter was filled with excitement. He didn’t think he would encounter such fortune today.
“After devouring this royal ancient god, this old man will have the cultivation level to hold a position on the elder council!” The old man charged forward toward the net. His right hand reached out for the crescent moon mark.
He had already thought about how he was going to gain respect in the elder council after he devoured the royal ancient god, how he would stand above all within his sect!
However, just at this instant, the old man’s expression changed greatly and his face filled with disbelief. All of his plans were ruined and he stared straight ahead.
A crazy aura came out from the crescent moon mark that devoured Wang Lin. This aura was extremely powerful and caused the crescent moon mark to tremble violently. Then the crescent moon mark exploded with a bang!
The crescent moon mark was broken by force into countless pieces. At this moment, the old man’s face was completely pale and popping sounds came from between his eyebrows. Then he coughed out a large a mouthful of blood. Terror filled his eyes and he cried, “Impossible!”
The crescent moon mark between his eyebrows cracked in half and the old man was knocked back. The youth in black next to him was still in a daze. Even now, he still didn’t understand why such a shocking change had occurred.
Inside the net, Wang Lin walked out from the shattered crescent moon mark. The five stars on his forehead rotated slowly and the power of a royal 5-star ancient god filled the area.
However, this wasn’t what made the crescent moon mark explode or what made the old man cough out blood. At this moment, there was a black and white bead floating between Wang Lin’s eyebrows!
Heaven defying bead!
The moment Wang Lin was devoured by the crescent moon mark, the heaven defying bead began moving on its own and flew out from between his eyebrows.
The moment the heaven defying bead appeared, a mysterious force came out from within it. The crescent moon mark wasn’t able to resist at all and suddenly collapsed!
At this moment, black and white gas surrounded the heaven defying bead. The black and white gas charged out, went through the flashing net, and charged directly at the old man.
The old man screamed and his face filled with fear. It was as if he recognized the heaven defying bead. His gaze toward Wang Lin was filled with unimaginable fear.
“You… You are…”
He lost his wits and retreated while feeling shocked. The fear in his eyes almost reached its peak.
However, he was too slow. The black and white gas went through the net that sealed this void. The moment it charged out, the black and white gas expanded and sped up before chasing after the old man.
In an instant, the black and white gas caught up. Whether the old man tried to teleport or merge with the world, everything became pointless before the black and white gas from the heaven defying bead.
The moment the black and white gas closed in, it surrounded the old man. The old man’s body trembled violently, fear filled his eyes, and his pounding heart isolated all other sounds.
As the black and white gas circled him, it formed a vortex before the old man. An arm came out from the vortex and made a beckoning motion toward the old man.
The broken moon mark between the old man’s eyebrows shot out with a bang, and there were still lines of blood connected to the mark. The moment the mark flew out, the old man let out an extremely miserable scream. His body trembled, large drops of sweat fell from his face, and the veins on his body bulged as if they were about to explode.
Chapter 945 – Secret
Despair filled the old man’s eyes as he looked at Wang Lin and mournfully said, “Sealed Realm’s supreme, please spare my life!!”
However, Wang Lin was still in shock and had simply no control over this matter, much less over the heaven defying bead.
Seeing that Wang Lin made no attempt to stop the heaven defying bead, the old man let out a miserable smile. He watched as the crescent moon mark was pulled from his forehead by the big hand before it slowly returned back into the vortex.
Large amounts of blood sprayed out from the old man’s forehead and he became dispirited. His eyes were bleak and his body flew back as if he had been hit by a powerful impact.
Fear filled black-robed youth’s eyes as he looked at Wang Lin. The coldness in his eyes collapsed and was replaced with terror. He dodged Wang Lin’s gaze and didn’t dare to make eye contact.
His body flashed and he grabbed hold of the old man. The old man’s eyes revealed a trace of struggle. Disregarding the blood from between his eyebrows, he shouted, “Quickly, retreat!”
The youth didn’t hesitate and quickly retreated while carrying the old man.
The formation formed by the black and white gas dissipated back into black and white gas. Then it penetrated the recovering net and returned back into the heaven defying bead.
The heaven defying bead slowly flew to Wang Lin and floated before him.
The surrounding flashing net was slowly covered by the void once more. Then there was nothing but the endless darkness and silence.
As for the Moongazer Serpent and Lou Chen, they were isolated outside the net. When the void spread, they disappeared forever…
Qing Shui stared at all of this. A majority of his celestial origin energy had been sealed. He looked at Wang Lin and his originally confused eyes became focused.
Looking at the heaven defying bead, Wang Lin was just as shocked as the old man who had lost his mark from ancient times. He wasn’t unfamiliar with the arm that came out from the vortex. He saw it when he first activated the heaven defying bead.
At this moment, while he pondered, Wang Lin carefully raised his right hand and touched the heaven defying bead. The bead immediately entered his right hand and disappeared into his origin soul.
“During ancient times, there were ancient people that cultivated their own heaven and earth. They became celestials and formed the Ancient Celestial Realm… The Ancient Celestial Realm is the holy land of my Celestial Realm, the real Celestial Realm!” Qing Shui seemed to be speaking to himself, and there was a hint of sadness in his eyes.
“Master Bai Fan was someone from the Ancient Celestial Realm. He descended from the Ancient Celestial Realm to teach us all…
“Teacher once said that the Ancient Celestial Realm was the guardian of all life. If the Ancient Celestial Realm exists, then the heavens and earth will exist. If the Ancient Celestial Realm was gone, then everything would be destroyed…
“He originally thought that the Ancient Celestial Realm would be eternal, but that day… The towering tree supporting the Ancient Celestial Realm collapsed and the Ancient Celestial Realm disappeared without a trace…. Even after spending a lifetime searching, teacher wasn’t able to find a trace of the Ancient Celestial Realm…
“The disappearance of the Ancient Celestial Realm represented the collapse of the ancient cultivation world and ushered a new era. The world was confused; without the Ancient Celestial Realm, how could there be celestials… Thus, Qi refiners were borned… I, Qing Shui, was a Qi refiner. I was heir to the country of Clear Water.
“However, although the Celestial Realm was gone, Master Bai Fan and few of his peers opened their own world. They took the four great passages to the Ancient Celestial Realm and created their own land, naming it… Celestial Realm!
“The Wind, Rain, Thunder, and Lightning Celestial Realms split the galaxy into four systems. Under the Wind Celestial Realm was the Cloud Sea, under the Rain Celestial Realm was Brilliant Void, under the Thunder Celestial Realm was Allheaven, and under the Lightning Celestial Realm was Summoned River… The system below the Rain Celestial Realm had its named changed by others to the ‘Alliance.’ Who else still knows that this place was once called ‘Brillant Void…’”
Qing Shui let out a sigh as he looked at the void. It was as if he was looking at the Thunder Celestial Realm from back then, and reminiscence filled his eyes.
“At the Thunder Celestial Realm, I met her…”
As Wang Lin pondered, his body gradually shrank. Popping sounds echoed as his 3,000 foot body slowly returned to normal size.
Five ancient god stars rotated between his eyebrows and gave off a fierce ancient god aura! At this moment, Wang Lin’s original body had the power of a 5-star ancient god, and he was now considered one of the strong!
If a 5-star royal ancient god used a spell, he could battle early stage Nirvana Cleanser cultivators! Once he returns to normal space and his origin energy is unsealed, almost no early stage Nirvana Cleanser cultivator will be his match!
For the first time, Wang Lin felt like he was powerful! His expression was calm as he silently looked at Qing Shui.
Qing Shui’s eyes revealed a hint of gentleness, but it was soon replaced with pain. He could never forget that time where he was lost in madness and accidently killed his beloved partner…
This kind of pain was deep inside his heart, and it continued to devour him. Not even “unforgettable” was enough to express how powerful it was!
“During ancient times, when my celestial clan was at its peak… In my memory, I clearly remember that this peak didn’t last for long. The four Celestial Realms entered a life and death battle over a single item!” The pain was quickly hidden away. This was a pain he faced alone every night, an unspeakable pain he could never forget.
“This great war lasted for far too long, and in the end, the Celestial Realms lost too much… In the end, during the peak of the war, a person came out from the void. According to Master Bai Fan, this person was an old acquaintance from the Ancient Celestial Realm.
“His appearance prevented this war from continuing, and he held the order from the Ancient Celestial Realm to set up barrier between the four Celestial Realms. If the barrier was opened once more, the anger of the Ancient Celestial Realm would descend and burn everything!”
As Qing Shui’s voice echoed, Wang Lin silently listened.
“The four great Celestial Realms were isolated from each other and the war was over… As for the root of all of this, the thing everyone wanted, I don’t know… All I know is that it was a bead…” Qing Shui looked at Wang Lin.
Wang Lin’s expression remained the same, but his mind was in shock.
“If I had obtained that bead, I would certainly keep it well-hidden and not take it out or let anyone see it. This object is simply too important…” Qing Shui spoke as if he was talking to himself and let out a sigh.
“The great war between the four Celestial Realms caused them to lose too many celestials. All four realms were at their weakest. However, it was during that time that a shocking change occured!
“A bunch of freaks from the Tattoo clan came from an unknown origin and appeared in the realm under the four Celestial Realms. These Tattoo clan members used extremely strange spells. We celestials were completely different. We don’t cultivate dao, only our celestial origin. We can reverse the power of heavens and wield it. Those people gathered all their power onto talisman-like treasures and used them!
“The battle was very intense. In the end, my celestial clan won and scattered this Tattoo clan. We even turned a large amount of them into the our slaves! However, the four Celestial Realms suffered even more damage… After that, we found out that this Tattoo clan came from the void under space! Which is here!” Qing Shui pointed under his feet!
Wang Lin gasped and his eyes shined. He had encountered the Chosen Immortal Clan a lot, but he didn’t expect the Chosen Immortal Clan’s origin to be the void!
Thinking about the old man and youth, an idea suddenly appeared in Wang Lin’s mind.
“This void doesn’t only surround the Alliance, it surrounds all four systems under the four Celestial Realms!” Qing Shui let out a sigh and muttered, “After the war with the Tattoo clan, I began to show signs of madness, but at that time I didn’t pay attention to any of this… After that, you should’ve heard about what happened from Master Flamespark.”
Wang Lin pondered for a bit while he looked at Qing Shui. After a long time, he slowly said, “Senior Brother, that old man said that he was from the ancient Moon Devourer Clan of the Immemorial Celestial Clan…”
Qing Shui’s eyes were filled with confusion as he softly said, “This is what also confuses me. I have never heard of this Immemorial Celestial Clan. Could the Tattoo clan from back then be from the same place? Were they also members of the Immemorial Celestial Clan…” The confusion in Qing Shui’s eyes became even stronger.
“However, I feel very strange. The moment the seven-colored gas appeared, I unexpectedly saw an illusion. I heard that teacher died while pointing madly at the sky. What exactly did teacher see…”
Wang Lin pondered deeply.
A large mystery seemed to fill the surroundings, but it was hidden in smoke, not allowing anyone to see the truth inside. Both Wang Lin and Qing Shui silently podnered in the void.
The celestial origin energy in Qing Shui’s body was eventually completely sealed. He gradually weakened, and on the third day, he lost the ability to fly.
Wang Lin supported Qing Shui as he continued to move through the void. The celestial fragment Master Flamespark gave them floated before him and gave off a gentle light. It was as if it had made a connection with the outside world and was leading the way.
Supporting Qing Shui, Wang Lin followed the celestial fragment. On the ninth day, Qing Shui was extremely weak. He looked at the void and the drifting celestial fragment as he said, “After I take the memories from Esteemed Xuan Bao’s origin soul, you should keep the origin soul. His origin soul contains a large amount of celestial origin energy, so it will be very useful to you!”
“Your attitude is very similar to mine back then… I hope you will cherish it more than me, because I no longer have the qualifications or people to cherish…” Qing Shui looked at Wang Lin as if he was looking at his past self.
The same kind of coldness, the same kind of slaughter, and the same kind of loneliness.
On this day, the celestial fragment suddenly shined brightly and stopped. As it shined, a vortex appeared before it.
There was an alter on the vortex with countless cultivators chanting. Master Flamespark stood on the altar with a smile and his voice entered.
“Welcome back!”
Chapter 946 – The Child Who Pointed at the Apricot Flower Village
There was a bright nebula among the vastness of space. This colorful nebula looked static, but it was undergoing a change unseen to the eye.
This nebula was filled with different colors and was very beautiful.
On this day, a ray of light flew through the nebula. This ray of light wasn’t fast, but when it passed through the nebula, it made it look as if the nebula was boiling and retreating.
What was more astonishing was that the person inside the ray of light wasn’t using a treasure like the Star Compass, he was moving with his body.
This person wore a green robe and looked about 30 years old. His appearance was ordinary and there was nothing unusual about him. If there was anything notable, it was that he gave off an ancient temperament.
It was as if this person had lived for tens of thousands of years.
Wang Lin walked the entire way. He didn’t use Spatial Bending, he just calmly walked among the stars.
It had been four days since he returned from the void.
Four days ago, he and Qing Shui opened up the passage back from the void with the help of Master Flamespark. Wang Lin didn’t mention much about what happened in the void. He didn’t go too deeply into the whereabouts of Yi Muzi, Wudo Chan, and the Moongazer Serpent.
Master Flamespark didn’t ask too much about it, but when they talked about the Moongaze Serpent, he frowned.
Wang Lin didn’t linger too long with Master Flamespark. He decided to leave using a private matter as an excuse. Master Flamespark silently pondered for a long time and didn’t force Wang Lin to stay. Although he couldn’t see through Wang Lin’s ancient god body even though his cultivation level was much higher, he could feel a powerful aura that shocked him greatly coming from Wang Lin.
Although this aura was fearsome now, with time, it would grow to an extremely terrifying degree.
The seal on Qing Shui’s cultivation quickly undid itself once he returned. After all, his celestial origin energy didn’t really disappear, it was merely suppressed by the seal.
After recovering his cultivation, Qing Shui didn’t stay where Master Flamespark was. He disappeared among the stars, his whereabouts unknown.
On the surface, when the two left, it looked like they didn’t interact at all, but Wang Lin knew Qing Shui would come and find him. After all, Qing Shui hadn’t searched Esteemed Xuan Bao’s memories yet.
Thinking about what happened in the void, Wang Lin felt very regrettable about it all. Whether it was Lou Chen’s life, the waves outside the seal, or the secrets of the Celestial Realm, they were all fresh in Wang Lin’s mind.
What shocked him the most was the heaven defying bead!
Wang Lin would never have guessed that the heaven defying bead would unexpectedly trigger a great war between the four Celestial Realms!
“The great war between the four Celestial Realms was certainly more fierce than the battle between Allheaven and the Alliance…” Wang Lin let out a sigh as he went through the nebula and looked ahead. At some point, he turned around and remained unmoving.
A moment later, ripples spread from where he was looking and Qing Shui walked out. He looked at Wang Lin with admiration in his eyes.
Wang Lin’s expression was calm as he smiled. “Senior Brother came.”
“The current you is qualified to travel the stars, so I can relax.” Qing Shui took a step and arrived next to Wang Lin.
Wang Lin immediately noticed a powerful smell of blood from Qing Shui’s body. He could vaguely feel that Qing Shui’s cultivation was several times stronger than several days ago!
“On the way, I heard a few people talking about your name, so I went and kill some Alliance cultivators who were good at hiding!” Although Qing Shui spoke like it was nothing, Wang Lin could tell that this was absolutely not a small matter!
The truth was certainly as he explained. The Slaughter Realm of the Alliance had kept up their pursuit of Thunder Celestial Xu Mu. Although Wang Lin had gone into the void, they didn’t give up and stayed around. However, they didn’t scatter but divided into two teams near where the Allheaven cultivators were.
However, this Slaughter Realm had terrible luck and one of its groups was confronted by Qing Shui. All of them were killed and even the leader was devoured by Qing shui.
Wang Lin slapped his bag of holding and Esteemed Xuan Bao’s origin soul flew out. He threw it at Qing Shui.
Qing Shui caught it and placed his right hand between Esteemed Xuan Bao’s eyebrows. Celestial origin energy surged into Qing Shui’s right hand and Esteemed Xuan Bao awakened. Burst of miserable screams echoed and his origin soul convulsed.
Qing Shui’s expression was gloomy and his eyes were closed. After a long time, he opened his eyes, and there was a layer of frost over his face. He threw Esteemed Xuan Bao’s origin soul back at Wang Lin.
Wang Lin didn’t speak and caught Esteemed Xuan Bao’s origin soul. This origin soul had lost its consciousness and had become nothing but a source of celestial origin energy.
The former dignified celestial, the junior brother of the Esteemed Tian Bao, ended up like this. It could only be said that whether you were a celestial or a cultivator, if you were a bit careless, you could end up in this state. If you wished to be different, then you had to become the strongest.
Wang Lin put this origin soul into his bag of holding and looked at Qing Shui. Qing Shui’s expression had returned back to normal, but there was a hint of fierceness in it. He had found a sliver of a clue from Esteemed Xuan Bao’s origin soul!
Qing Shui looked at Wang Lin and slowly said, “Xu Mu, I need to go the Alliance’s Slaughter Realm to pick up an item. Are you willing to go with me?”
Wang Lin pondered a bit and said, “Can Senior Brother wait for me for 10 days?”
Qing Shui nodded and said, “OK, I’ll come looking for you in 10 days!” Qing Shui didn’t waste time. He took a step and disappeared into the void. The moment he disappeared, a monstrous killing intent disappeared instantly!
Wang Lin let out a sigh. He knew that Qing Shui must have found someone within Esteemed Xuan Bao’s origin soul. After pondering for a bit, he took a step and ripples appeared under his feet; he merged with the world.
The reason he asked for 10 days was because there were two matters he had at attend to!
There was a cultivation planet in the northern region of the Alliance. This planet was in the depths of the northern region and was far away from the battle several days ago, so it wasn’t affected by the big battle. This planet was filled with spiritual energy and covered with endless forests.
This was a rank 7 cultivation planet!
There were three smaller cultivation planets around this planet, making them the secondary planets.
This rank 7 cultivation planet had a very beautiful name, it was called Dark Moon.
A majority of planet Dark Moon was covered in forests and large amounts of mortal villages were scattered across the planet. There were also many cultivation sects within its numerous mountains.
There was a famous mountain in the southern part of the planet, and it was called Heaven Mountain. This mountain was very fall and the top was covered in mist. No one knew where the peak was.
A small path of stone steps led up the mountain and the rest was hidden within the clouds. One couldn’t help but feel like this place was the Celestial Realm.
Every morning, the sound of bells would echo from the peak of the mountain. A few beautiful birds would fly out among the clouds and wander Heaven Mountain. Their cries would intersect with the sound of the bells.
This scene was like a scene from a painting. It was extremely elegant, like a hidden paradise.
Dong… Dong… Dong… The sound of the bell seemed to pierce the clouds as it spread out from the peak. It make the heart of anyone who heard it feel peaceful.
There was a mortal village at the foot of mountain. There weren’t many people there, only about 100 families. The village was filled with apricot trees, and the trees were in full bloom. A gust of wind would cause the fragrance of the apricot flowers to spread.
Smelling the fragrance of the apricot flowers would make one feel calm.
The sound of the bells seemed to blow away the coldness of night in the early morning. Burst of smoke and the sound of dogs barking appeared.
As the smoke floated into the air as if it removed the last sliver of darkness of night. Looking at this from away it was like a moving picture and contained its own domain.
Wang Lin silently stood in the distance and looked at the village ahead.
The smoke and the swaying apricot trees were dynamic and the almost 100 house were static. The dynamic and static things contrasted each other, like the leisurely and busy lives. This inadvertent combination made Wang Lin feel familiar and yet unfamiliar at the same time.
What he recalled was not the village before him but his childhood back on planet Suzaku.
In a fragments of nursery rhyme came from the distances as the found of the bell ringing echoed in the morning.
“The apricot tree blooms white flowers. The daughter won’t be taken by a daoist family. Last year, Lang the Second went up the mountain, and a year later Lang the First was a bag of bones. The cry of the daughter accompanies the dead but takes the coffin as family… The apricot tree blooms white flowers and children shouldn’t be taken by daoists. If asked about my age, I still don’t have found my dao. The dog barks, the cat scratches, scaring the daoist back home.”
The voice of a tender child entered Wang Lin’s ears along with the sound of a crisp bell ringing. It was a child dressed in close-fitting clothes riding on an ox walking toward the village.
There was an iron hoop through the ox’s nose with two bells attached. As the ox walked, the bells would ring unceasingly. There were several calves following the ox.
The child saw Wang Lin but wasn’t afraid as he continued to sing the nursery rhyme and gradually approached Wang Lin. The child tilted his head and his big eyes blinked as he said, “Uncle, why are you here? Are you lost?”
Wang Lin revealed a smile and nodded. “What is this place?”
The child pointed ahead and said his tender voice, “This is the Apricot Flower Village!” As he spoke, he sat on the ox and walked into the village. Only the nursery rhyme continued to echo…
Wang Lin let out a sigh. When the nursery rhyme entered his ears, a hint of sadness arose within him. He muttered, “Planet Dark Moon, a village under Heaven Mountain… This should be it.”
That vague call from a dying friend who was homesick echoed in Wang Lin’s years.
“Please take my ashes back to planet Dark Moon in the Alliance Star System. There is a mountain call Heaven Mountain. I remember that there was a village under the mountain. Please take my ashes there…”
Chapter 947 – Qualification
Several kilometers outside of Apricot Flower Village, there were a field of graves. Wang Lin’s figure appeared there. He looked at the graves before him and, after pondering for a long time, he slapped his bag of holding.
A white jade vial appeared in his hand. Holding the bottle, Wang Lin let out a sigh and said, “Sun Tai… The grudge before us is over. I have completed the promise I made to you to bring your ashes home.”
As he spoke, the small bottle automatically flew forward and entered the soil in the distance. Then a small moud slowly formed.
He waved his right hand and carved with his finger. There were flashes of light as Wang Lin carved a decorative tombstone with a few small words on it.
“Sun Tai’s grave”
“For us cultivators, one hundred years, one thousand years pass in the blink of an eye. Most relatives will have passed away, and those that remain feel alienated… Once you step on the path of cultivation, you are doomed to a life of hardship.
“When you’re walking down the path of cultivation, when you turn your head you can’t see where you came from, and when you look at the path ahead, it is shrouded in fog.”
Wang Lin let out a sigh as he looked at Sun Tai’s grave, and regret filled his eyes.
“Today I was able to send your ashes home even though you died in a foreign land… If there is a day when I die, I don’t know if there will be anyone to send me back to planet Suzaku…” Wang Lin silently pondered before leaving.
“This is karma.” Wang Lin’s footsteps didn’t stop as he gradually disappeared. However, that nursery rhyme didn’t leave, it shrouded his heart.
“Apricot tree blooms white flowers…
“Cultivation, cultivation, mortals yearn to become immortal and enter the cultivation world. Yet they don’t know how many cultivators are envious of a mortal’s bland life.
“How many more died in foreign places like Sun Tai, their ashes scattering with the wind, unable to return home… However, many parents and relatives weren’t able to meet their children even at their dying moment. If one had the chose again, would they still take that step to become a cultivator…
“The nursery rhyme was formed by many generations of bitterness. Outsiders might not be able to understand what the child sings about, but cultivators can feel the sadness in their heart. The name of that nursery rhyme must be… Don’t cultivate…”
Wang Lin’s figure faded from existed as he merged with the word. However, that nursery rhyme and that eternal sadness remained.
Wang Lin stepped through the stars. There was a powerful sense of regret over his body. Although the trip was short, the mood lingered with him.
The area between the western and northern regions had become the buffer area for the Allheaven cultivators. There was a cultivation planet near where the battlefield was. This cultivation planet was kept rather intact, and although there wasn’t much spiritual energy left, Li Yunzi didn’t care.
Li Yunzi sat at the peak of a mountain on the planet. Beside him was a youth who had a gloomy expression. Although he was also sitting there, he looked into the distance as if he was waiting for something.
If Wang Lin was here, he would recognize the youth as Xu Ting, who nearly died in the big battle.
There were 13 balls of blood around Li Yunzi. These 13 balls of blood were the remaining Lou Fu.
There weren’t many Allheaven cultivators here, only a few people, with Li Yunzi as the leader. He was here precisely because the 13 Lou Fu would prevent the Alliance from launching another attack!
His divine sense was spread through the 13 Lou Fu, which allowed his divine sense to spread much farther than normal. As a result, nothing within the area could escape his divine sense.
Wang Lin’s figure appeared from within the ripples. He came to this cultivation planet looking for Li Yunzi. This was the second matter he had to attend to. Back before he entered the void, Wang Lin had a divine sense message sent to him, and the person who sent it was Li Yunzi.
Li Yunzi, who was sitting on the top of the mountain, slowly opened his eyes. The moment he opened his eyes, the 13 balls of blood trembled and 13 red eyes appeared on the 13 balls of blood.
All of them were staring in one direction, and a powerful pressure formed as a result. It formed a spell that could collapse the stars.
Li Yunzi revealed a faint smile and slowly said, “You came.” With this cultivation, he could naturally see that Wang Lin had undergone some changes, but he didn’t point it out or question Wang Lin. After all, he was inferior to Master Flamespark and therefore wasn’t able to clearly see through it.
There was a flash of coldness in Xu Ting’s eyes. He let out a cold snort and didn’t hide his killing intent as he stared at Wang Lin.
Wang Lin’s figure appeared under the gazes of the 13 red eyes. His expression was neutral, as if the pressure didn’t affect him at all, and he completely ignored Xu Ting. He looked at Li Yunzi and said, “Xu Mu greets Senior Li Yunzi.”
Li Yunzi waved his right hand and the 13 red eyes disappeared from the balls of blood, causing the pressure to disappear. Wang Lin’s expression didn’t change at all as he landed on top of the mountain and stood opposite of Xu Ting.
Xu Ting shouted, “Xu Mu!! You…”
“Noisy!” Wang Lin coldly looked at Xu Ting. This gaze was like a sharp sword that pierced through Xu Ting’s eyes. Xu Ting felt an explosion in his mind and his expression changed greatly. He was in shock and his entire body felt weak. Wang Lin’s words seemed to contain some kind of law that caused the blood flow in his body to reverse and his celestial origin to almost collapse.
BANG, bang, BANG, bang, BANG, bang…
At this instant, all sounds aside from his heartbeat were isolated from his ears. His heart rate accelerated and sweat poured out non-stop.
From his view, facing Wang Lin just now felt like he was facing an elder of his family, and he couldn’t resist at all. What made him feel even more fear was the powerful aura that was several times stronger than the heavens’ might. As his body trembled, he felt like he was under the feet of a giant. If this giant roared, it would make his body and origin soul completely collapse!
After coughing out a mouthful of blood, Xu Ting was filled with terror. He retreated as he stared at Wang Lin, but his mind was blank. He couldn’t understand why this had happened…
Li Yunzi’s eyes shined brightly and he exclaimed, then his gaze toward Wang Lin became serious.
Wang Lin no longer looked at Xu Ting but looked at Li Yunzi and calmly said, “I wonder why Senior has called Junior here.” Wang Lin’s voice was calm, but it just made Li Yunzi even more serious. He no longer looked at Wang Lin like an ordinary junior.
This was the effect Wang Lin wanted, he wanted to shake the mountain to alert the tiger! With his intelligence, how could he not know why Li Yunzi was looking for him? Back then, he didn’t have the qualifications to make demands, but now he did!
“During the celestial bestowment, this old man allowed you to look at the Zhan family’s Battle Scroll! I promised you then to allow you to see the second scroll! Today, I called you and Xu Ting over to observe it!” As Li Yunzi spoke, he lifted his left hand and reached toward the void. There was a tearing sound and then a rift appeared.
A ray of black light shot out from the crack. There was a black scroll surrounded by black light. It flew toward Li Yunzi’s hand and floated there.
“This is second Battle Scroll of my Zhan family’s three Battle Scrolls!” Li Yunzi’s left hand threw it forward, and he looked at Wang Lin with a hint of anticipation.
Wang Lin’s right hand grabbed the Zhan Battle Scroll, but he didn’t open it. Instead, he smiled at Li Yunzi and said, “Senior Li Yunzi, Junior can’t view this second Battle Scroll for nothing!”
As Li Yunzi looked at Wang Lin, his expression became gloomy. However, he recalled Wang Lin’s roar, and a moment later, he laughed. “Xu Mu, you’ve got guts! What do you want? Speak!”
Wang Lin pointed at the 13 Lou Fu and calmly said, “Junior wants a Lou Fu for looking at the second scroll!”
Li Yunzi silently pondered as he revealed a smile that was not a smile and said, “Is this a treasure you can have?”
Wang Lin faintly smiled but didn’t answer the question. Instead, he said, “Junior has an appointment with my senior brother. In a few days, he will come find me to go to a place with him.”
Li Yunzi meaningfully looked at Wang Lin as he laughed and said, “I’ll gift you one!” With that, his right hand reached toward the void and one the balls of blood descended. It rapidly condensed into a fist-sized ball and floated toward Wang Lin.
Wang Lin carefully grabbed it and put it in his bag after checking it.
Li Yunzi said, “Now you can look at it!”
“Since Vice Thunder Celestial Xu Ting is going to view it with me for a chance at good fortune, then Xu Ting should view it first. After all, he was the first to view it last time.” Wang Lin threw the scroll at Xu Ting.
Xu Ting’s trembling mind hadn’t recovered yet, but he subconsciously seized it. He opened the scroll and then a thunderous roar suddenly came from it.
A powerful battle intent appeared from the void and descended on Xu Ting!
Xu Ting’s body trembled as he felt a monsterous wind blow by. It was as if an ancient beast was sealed inside and now that the seal was released, the fierce beast released its monstrous aura. Countless years of anger escaped at once as if it was going to devour him.
Li Yunzi’s expression revealed a hint of tension. It was rare for him to show this kind of tension with his cultivation and age. He clearly knew how many talents in his family throughout the years were able to view the first scroll but were unable to withstand the unimaginable battle intent inside the second scroll before it even opened completely.
The less serious consequence was that they be seriously injured and maimed, the more serious consequence… their origin soul would perish!
Chapter 948 – Secret of the Battle Scrolls
Li Yunzi knew that what they saw and felt was beyond the limit of the mind!
Only a few people were able to open the second scroll. Even so, they were only able to open it a little. As for those who could completely open the second scroll throughout the countless generations, there were only three people, including himself!
Only those three could completely open the second scroll!
Xu Ting’s face was deathly pale, his body trembled, and lot of sweat poured out. His eyes were in a daze as he stared at the scroll that was opened by a sliver.
He felt a fierce aura charging out from the small opening in the scroll, and it wanted to devour him. This made him feel very uncomfortable, as if something was being suppressed in his chest. He want to let out a roar to release it, but he couldn’t make a sound.
A roar that came from the ancient times echoed in his ears. Then a violent wind blew at him, causing his clothes and hair to flutter.
He was in a trance and had an illusion that he was a lonely boat struggling among turbulent waves.
However, Xu Ting was a talented junior from the Xu family of planet Dong Lin. He had entered the celestial pool, where his domain melted, but he obtained his celestial origin. If he was in the ancient cultivation world, he would be a true celestial!
At this moment, he took a deep breath and his eyes shined brightly. Under this desperate situation, he suppressed the terror in his heart as he stared at the scroll, and his trembling hands slowly opened it.
This scene caused Li Yunzi’s eyes to light up and reveal a hint of admiration. He thought, “Xu Ting was one of the few cultivators who could comprehend the first scroll within four seconds. Normally, when cultivators like him open up the second scroll, they can only open it 40%; I just don’t know how much he can open it.”
Wang Lin’s expression was still neutral as he coldly stared at Xu Ting.
Xu Ting’s hands trembled even more violently. Every time he opened the scroll a bit more, the fierce aura became even more intense. He felt as if he was holding an ancient beast in his hand and was going to open the seal to allow it to devour him.
Time slowly passed as the scroll opened more and more in Xu Ting’s trembling hands. His clothes were soaked in sweat and his face was pale. Xu Ting had opened the battle scroll about 40%, and the battle intent coming from the scroll was already intense.
A storm appeared and swept by, causing a series of rumbles. A burst of black light came from the scroll and shrouded Xu Ting.
Xu Ting’s mind trembled, but he there was an unyielding force inside his heart. He clenched his teeth as all his celestial origin energy surged and he mercilessly open the scroll. There was a thud when he opened the scroll 70%!
Li Yunzi suddenly stood up and unimaginable surprised filled his eyes.
Just at the instant the battle scrolled opened 70%, a roar of a beast came from inside. Large amounts of black mist came out and turned into a giant beast that attempted to devour Xu Ting.
“Hang on!” There was anticipation in Li Yunzi’s eyes.
Xu Ting’s body trembled. The moment the fierce beast charged at him, he coughed out blood and his body was knocked back. There were popping sounds and large amounts of blood burst out from his body.
Letting out a miserable smile, he landed more than 100 feet away with a thud.
As for the battle scroll, it immediately closed and floated in the air. It was as if the scene just now hadn’t happened.
Li Yunzi let out a sigh. This Xu Ting was able to open the scroll 70%. Although he wasn’t able to resist the beast inside the battle scroll, he was already an extremely outstanding individual among the people that had attempted to open the battle scroll over the countless years.
He waved his right hand and the scroll flew toward Wang Lin. Li Yunzi gloomily said, “Xu Mu, it’s your turn!”
Wang Lin’s expression was neutral as he grabbed the battle scroll and looked at Li Yunzi. He had no relation with Li Yunzi, so Li Yunzi must’ve had other motives for wanting him to observe the second scroll. Now that he saw Xu Ting’s miserable state, he was even more certain.
Most importantly, Wang Lin clearly saw that the sliver of source origin Xu Ting had obtained from the first scroll was taken by the beast when it devoured him.
“This Battle Scroll is interesting!” Wang Lin revealed a smile as he grabbed the battle scroll and suddenly opened it!
The battle scroll was suddenly opened by Wang Lin. That fierce, ancient aura surged out at Wang Lin as if it wanted to devour him.
Li Yunzi stared at Wang Lin. Actually although Li Yunzi initially valued Wang Lin, his expectations weren’t high. Wang Lin was not the first non-family member he allowed to view the battle scroll.
However, over the countless years, at most they only managed to open a majority; no one had been able to completely open it!
However, the scene that unfolded before him caused Li Yunzi’s impression of Wang Lin to change drastically. Wang Lin was able to set a condition and borrow Qing Shui to suppress him. All this sounds simple, but how many people in the cultivation world could grasp the chance so perfectly? Even more so, how many people in the cultivation world dare to do such a thing before him?
Compared to Xu Ting, he was expecting a lot more from Wang Lin’s performance.
That fierce ancient aura surrounded him didn’t cause Wang Lin’s expression to change at all. In his view, this was not nearly as strong as his ancient god aura! It was just like a small beast roaring before him. No matter how much it roared, it was still weak!
Wang Lin calmly opened the scroll. As he opened it the fierce aura became even stronger and turned into a gust that swept Wang Lin. However this gust wasn’t able to move Wang Lin at all.
Li Yunzi’s pupils shrink and shined brightly as he stared at Wang Lin.
At this moment, a majority of Xu Ting’s celestial origin had collapsed. He looked at Wang Lin with endless hatred and complex emotions.
Wang Lin’s actions weren’t fast. After opening the scroll 30%, he let out a cold snort. Not wanting to waste any more time, he suddenly opened up the scroll 70%!
At this instant, the beast that devoured Xu Ting formed with a thunderous roar and attempted to devour Wang Lin.
Wang Lin’s eyes became cold as he stared at the beast rushing toward him and shouted, “Damned animal, you dare?!”
This roar was like thunder that split open the sky and rumbled across the cultivation planet. Even the mountain peak Wang Lin was standing on rumbled and showed signs of collapse. Cracks appeared in the earth nearby, forming large fissures.
If he encountered a powerful cultivator, Wang Lin may not be strong enough to deal with him, but this mere ancient beast spirit wasn’t enough to shake Wang Lin’s mind. At this moment, Wang Lin was an ancient god!
Also, he wasn’t an ordinary ancient god but a 5-star royal ancient god!!
The fierce beast let out roar and then a whimper, then its body that was charging at Wang Lin stopped. Fear filled the beast’s eyes. It was frightened by the words Wang Lin said before the scroll.
At that instant, it felt an aura that made it tremble before this cultivator. It clearly remembered that this aura was something it didn’t dare to provoke!
This incredible scene caused Li Yunzi’s eyes to widen. Even with Li Yunzi’s cultivation, he couldn’t help but become startled, but soon his heart was filled with ecstasy.
“This Xu Mu was able to make the beast spirit retreat in fear!! The only person in my Zhan family that could do this over the countless years was the ancestor, Zhan Xingye!” Li Yunzi ignored everything else and stared at Wang Lin.
Xu Ting clenched his fists, but the shock in his eyes was intense.
Wang Lin opened the scroll with zero hesitation after he let out that roar!
There was an extremely flamboyant “Battle” character on the scroll that looked like it was going to fly out from inside. It was amazing!
An ancient aura came from the word “Battle,” and in that instant, there was a battle dao shadow in each of his eyes. At this moment, Wang Lin’s vision blurred and he sank into this strange domain.
It was still that endless space with that old man wearing white. However, this time the old man was sitting, and his right hand continued to draw the word “Battle” in the void!
“This old man reached the Void realm and grasped the boundary of the world. I have left behind no descendants, and my entire cultivation is drawn into the word ‘Battle’. At this moment, before I attempt to break the edge of the world, I leave behind these six Battle Scrolls in case I fail and lose my life. If someone in the future obtains all six, then they will become this old man’s inheritor!”
As the old man muttered, his right hand suddenly stopped. There were thousands and thousands of the word “Battle” of varying sizes around him. The old man pointed with this finger and then all of these words filled with battle intent merged into one word before the old man in the blink of the eye!
“Battle!” The old man’s voice was calm, but the moment he said the word, the word “Battle” trembled, turned into a ray of black light, and went into the void…
Wang Lin’s body trembled as the battle dao shadow disappeared from his eyes and he awakened.
Li Yunzi quickly walked up. His eyes were filled with excitement as he urgently said, “Did you see it?!”
Wang Lin silently pondered a bit and nodded. Just as he was about to speak, Li Yunzi waved his sleeve. Xu Tiang’s body more than 100 feet away was swept by a powerful gust of wind and thrown countless kilometers away.
Li Yunzi suppressed the excitement in his heart and said, “Now tell me what you saw!”
Wang Lin slowly said, “Inheritance!”
“Inheritance, it was indeed inheritance. The disappearance of the ancestor must’ve had great connections with this inheritance!” Li Yunzi’s expression changed. He naturally had methods of knowing if Wang Lin was telling the truth, but all of this was pointless now. To be able to say the word “inheritance” was proof enough.
“When Ancestor Zhan Xingye saw the second battle scroll, he said something similar!”
Chapter 949 – Nether Guide
“Back then, Ancestor Zhan Xingye, after years of comprehension, finally opened the third battle scroll. However, after observing the third scroll, his expression was very strange. He went into closed door cultivation with the third scroll for 1,000 years and never came out during that time. One day, after 1,000 years, the clan found only the third scroll and a jade at the place where he went into closed door cultivation, but there was no trace of Ancestor!
“If it wasn’t for Ancestor disappearing, then not even the Thunder Celestial Temple would dare to provoke my Zhan family. Not even that ancient cultivation family would dare to. When Ancestor was there, my Zhan family’s honor held strong!
“However, all of this changed once Ancestor disappeared… Generations of descendants held the hope of finding Ancestor. Ancestor isn’t dead; otherwise, his life token would be broken!”
Hundreds of thoughts went through Li Yunzi’s mind. There were three people in the Zhan family that could open the second scroll, but no one could open the third scroll.
This was something he had never told anyone. Not even the juniors in the family knew of this. They all thought Li Yunzi and the elders of the family could view the third scroll.
Even Zhan Konglie thought the same thing.
Li Yunzi wryly smiled. He was aware that although there were three people in the family that could open the second scroll, they could only comprehend it. None of them could completely immerse themselves within it like Xu Mu could!
This had nothing to do with cultivation and didn’t even have to do with talent. As for what exactly was the reason, Li Yunzi wasn’t able to figure it out.
Li Yunzi silently pondered for a long time before looking at Wang Lin and slowly saying, “Xu Mu, what kind of price do I have to pay for you to look at the third scroll? Speak!”
In reality, he still had some personal agenda. In addition to looking for the ancestor, there was a message left behind in the jade left by the ancestor!
“If anyone in my Zhan family could obtain the inheritance, they would be able to reach the peak!”
Wang Lin pondered. After a long time, he shook his head. “With my current cultivation level, I shouldn’t be able to open the third scroll.” When he observed that second battle scroll, source origin energy entered his third eye.
“This has nothing to do with cultivation level, so you should try it. I, Li Yunzi, will try to fulfill any request you have!” Li Yunzi’s right hand touched the spot between his eyebrows and a scroll immediately flew out from there.
This scroll was the third Battle Scroll!
Li Yunzi took a deep breath as he grabbed the third Battle Scroll and handed it to Wang Lin.
Wang Lin caught it. The moment he grabbed it, he felt an aura that made his mind tremble. This aura was far stronger than the second scroll.
“I absolutely can’t open this scroll!” Wang Lin’s eyes twitched and he felt a shocking sense of danger from the scroll. He had a feeling if he opened the scroll, even if its was just a sliver, it was not something he could withstand!
“Senior Li Yunzi, I’m not looking to kill myself; I won’t open it. If I were to open it, there would be no chance of me surviving!” Wang Lin looked at Li Yunzi and sent the third scroll back.
Li Yunzi’s expression sank.
“However, Senior Li Yunzi can relax. Junior also wants to see what’s inside the third Battle Scroll. If there is a day when my cultivation is strong enough, I’ll come and seek Senior to view the scroll. If I were to even open it a bit and die to the aura, then Senior would have to find someone else.”
Wang Lin retreated a few steps and calmly spoke. He knew that Li Yunzi wouldn’t attack him. Of course, even if the other party was really unscruplious and attacked, Wang Lin had already prepared in advance. Even though he wouldn’t win the fight, he could still escape and delay enough until Qing Shui arrived.
As Li Yunzi stared at Wang Lin, hundreds of thoughts went through his mind. He naturally knew the dangers of the third scroll. Over the countless years, everyone that tried to open the third scroll had all immediately perished. Even he still didn’t dare to open the third scroll.
Moreover, this Xu Mu had achieved great merit for Allheaven. If he were to really trap this Xu Mu or if Xu Mu really died from viewing the third scroll, then Master Flamespark would presumably interfere.
Although, Li Yunzi didn’t really care. He knew that Master Flamespark wouldn’t turn against him during this war for a mere junior.
However, what made him care was Qing Shui!
From his point of view, Qing Shui was a madman. It was likely that he would pursue the matter about Xu Mu with anger!
“Qing Shui was willing to fight against Blood God for Xu Mu. He was willing to kill a member of the Thunder Celestial Temple during the celestial bestowment. If I forced this Xu Mu to stay, then I would be inviting trouble.” Li Yunzi’s expression was gloomy. He was also hesitant because he felt like Xu Mu wasn’t be as easy to imprison as he expected.
“Over the countless years, the only person I’ve met that could see the domain inside the scroll was Xu Mu. If he dies, then I don’t know when I can find another… It is better to have a good relationship with him!” As Li Yunz pondered, he laughed and admiration filled his eyes. He nodded and said,
“Good, not rash at all. You are worthy of being my Allheaven’s Thunder Celestial! Xu Mu, although my Zhan family doesn’t have a spell like the Xiang family to help you revive your soul fragment, we had have a spell that helps strengthen the soul. In the future, when you come looking for this old man to view the third scroll, I won’t let you take a loss. I’ll teach you this spell! I’ll also promise to help you with one thing with the entire force of the Zhan family as long as its something my Zhan family can accomplish!”
Li Yunzi had made a big promise. Wang Lin’s face revealed gratitude and he respectfully said, “Thank you, Senior. Senior can rest assured about this matter!”
Li Yunzi smiled as he nodded and said, “Forget it. Since you have an appointment with Qing Shui, you should go!”
Wang Lin clasped his hands and left. After taking a few steps back, he turned into a ray of light and disappeared into the distance.
The moment Wang Lin left, Li Yunzi’s expression became gloomy and he muttered, “Master Flamespark won’t have a dispute with me over such a trivial matter, but there is Qing Shui… However, Qing Shui won’t live for long… After Qing Shui is dead, I want to see how you will escape from me, Xu Mu!”
After Wang Lin left this cultivation planet, his expression became gloomy. When Li Yunzi summoned him, he had to come, or else he would offend Li Yunzi. If he wanted to borrow Allheaven’s power to avoid a future crisis, he had to respond to Li Yunzi’s summon.
Moreover, the two of them still had maintained their relationship, so he had no reason not to come.
Since he had no choice but to go, then with Wang Lin’s cunning, there was no way he wouldn’t make any preparations. Even if Qing Shui didn’t mention the matter about finding him in 10 days, he would still have asked Qing Shui for help.
Moreover, when Wang Lin analyzed the situation, coming to meet Li Yunzi wasn’t without benefits. Reality proved his analysis to be correct. Not only did he obtain more source origin energy and learned the origin of the Battle Scroll, he also obtained a Lou Fu blood ball.
If he didn’t come to see Li Yunzi, the troubles in the future would be even more intense than now. After all, Li Yunzi was one of the old monsters of Allheaven!
As he flew, Wang Lin recalled everything that had happened, and his expression gradually calmed down. He sneered as he disappeared among the stars.
After finding a large rock floating in space, Wang Lin sat down, waiting for Qing Shui. A few days later, ripples appeared before Wang Lin, and Qing Shui walked out.
When he appeared, he gave off a powerful scent of blood. Behind Qing Shui were heads with faces filled with despair. There were at least 100 of them floating behind him.
Wang Lin opened his eyes and wryly smiled. Qing Shui’s cultivation level was even higher than it was 10 days ago. It was obvious he had devoured a lot of cultivators.
“These people are all Slaughter Realm cultivators that were good at hiding. If we want to enter the Slaughter Realm, we need these heads!” As Qing Shui spoke, he waved his right hand. The heads behind him flew and formed a circle.
“Celestial spell Nether Guide!” Qing Shui’s hand formed a seal. His celestial origin energy surged and he pointed with his finger. One of the heads exploded into a bloody mist with a bang. Then this continued, and soon, all 100 heads collapsed.
Dense blood mist surrounded the area. Qing Shui waved his right hand and the blood mist began to rotate faster and faster. The mournful cries of the souls of the cultivators came from within this vortex and echoed inside Wang Lin’s mind.
“Nether Guide!” The moment Qing Shui’s cold voice came out, the mournful cries from the vortex became even more intense. They gathered at the center of the vortex, forming a black hole-like thing!
Condensing all memories related to the Slaughter Realm from all the soul fragments into one spot. This formed a guided passage toward the Slaughter Realm using the memories of over 100 cultivators!
This was the celestial spell Nether Guide!
The black hole formed by over 100 cultivators rotated like crazy. In an instant, it seemed to break the void, and a dark red world appeared within the hole!
There were large buildings that seemed to stab into the void like swords here, and a powerful killing intent covered everything.
At the center stood a tower that was at least 10,000 feet tall. Black chains hung from the tower and connected it with the surrounding buildings.
This was the Slaughter Realm!
“This spell is very practical, so I like it a lot!” Killing intent filled Qing Shui’s eyes as he took out a jade to record the spell and threw it at Wang Lin. Then he stepped into the vortex without hesitation. Wang Lin caught the jade and wryly smiled. He feared that Qing Shui probably liked the spell because it allowed him to easily and conveniently slaughter his way into the enemy home base.
Wang Lin also moved and entered the vortex right after Qing Shui!
A large vortex had suddenly appeared in the Slaughter Realm, pulling the attention of all the cultivators. An instant later, a cold voice spread.
“I’m Celestial Lord Qing Shui. Today I’m here to pick up something that belongs to me, and then I’ll destroy this realm!”
The moment this sound appeared, it turned into a storm of killing intent that swept across the entre Slaughter Realm!
Bang, bang, bang, bang!
In an instant, countless sword-shaped buildings collapsed!
“What exactly did this Slaughter Realm take from Senior Brother Qing Shui to make him so angry after he searched Esteemed Xuan Bao’s memory?” Wang Lin stepped out from the vortex and coldly looked at the Slaughter Realm!
Chapter 950 – Slaughter Realm
The Cultivation Alliance had two sects, four temples, and eight realms. The Slaughter Realm created their own world as their base. Countless years ago, the founder of the Slaughter Realm took over a crack left over from the collapsed Rain Celestial Realm. He also gathered lot of heavenly metal to create the 99 Heaven Raising Swords!
These 99 Heaven Raising Swords became buildings unique to the Slaughter Realm.
In the Cultivation Alliance, the Slaughter Domain’s name was illustrious, and over the tens of thousands of years, it had completed countless exploits for the Cultivation Alliance. Whether it was the first battle against the Four Divine Sect or the later exchanges with the Corpse Sect, all of those conflicts had the shadow of the Slaughter Realm.
Not many rank 6 cultivation countries had heard of the Slaughter Realm, but once they reached rank 7, the Slaughter Realm would be a well-known name!
On a rank 7 cultivation planet, once a person’s cultivation reached a certain level, they wouldn’t be willing to leave their soul under another’s control. The series of events caused by this sentiment were all dealt with by the Slaughter Realm. The bloodbath caused by these matters gave them a vicious reputation!
Of course, there were many cultivators that the Slaughter Realm couldn’t deal with. These were dealt with by other forces within the Cultivation Alliance.
The Slaughter Realm could be said to be the Alliance’s blade. Those recruited by the Slaughter Realm were people who had spent their lives in slaughter!
Over tens of thousands of years, the Slaughter Realm maintained a core of 99 cultivators. If anyone died, they would immediately be replenished. Aside from these 99 cultivators, there were also the outer disciples. There were many outer disciples, and they were led by these 99 cultivators.
Aside from these 99, there were also the Realm Master and the Vice Realm Master!
It could be said that the Slaughter Realm was a cultivation sect, but they were far more powerful than most cultivation sects. Not many people were willing to provoke the Slaughter Realm in the Alliance!
Even some powerful cultivators would feel headaches when it came to the Slaughter Realm. Not only were these people vicious, they were also very good at stealth. If they failed their mission, they could immediately retreat and hide all traces of themselves.
From the birth of the Slaughter Realm, there had never been someone who slaughtered their way to their home base. If there were, then what Wang Lin did barely counted.
However, all of this changed when Qing Shui’s cold voice echoed!
Many of the sword-like buildings collapsed. Countless iron chains fell off and turned into a storm that swept the Slaughter Realm.
Bursts of roars came out, and in an instant, countless shadows flew out from the storm. These cultivators were all dressed in black and were of varying ages. Their cultivation levels varied from Illusory Yin to mid stage Nirvana Scryer. Most of them were at the Yin and Yang stage, very few at Nirvana Scryer.
“Xu Mu, can you help me with these minions?” With a step, Qing Shui stepped past the black-robed cultivators. His voice was like a blast of cold air.
With Wang Lin’s cunning, he naturally understood Qing Shui was sending him a great fortune. Although there were many cultivators, he had the body of an ancient god, so it wouldn’t be difficult to kill them!
“Senior Brother can be at ease!” As Wang Lin spoke, he took a step out and suddenly threw a punch!
There was a heaven-shaking bang and a sonic boom appeared before Wang Lin. The void shattered and the cracks swept forward.
The endless storm formed by Wang Lin’s punch condensed into one point and rushed out. Even a peak late stage Nirvana Scryer cultivator’s expression would change when facing it. If they were a bit late in dodging, they would be killed instantly!
Before Wang Lin were several Illusory Yin cultivators who had spent their lives in slaughter. Just as they approached, their expressions were changed by Wang Lin’s punch. Popping sounds echoed within their bodies and large amounts of blood gushed out from their bodies. The person in front pf Wang Lin wasn’t able to resist at all and his body collapsed.
As his body splattered, the surrounding cultivators were filled with shock and fear. They wanted to escape, but at this moment, they clearly felt that a mysterious force had locked down the surroundings, so they couldn’t escape at all.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang. All of these cultivators’ bodies collapsed and their origin souls flew out and were caught by Wang Lin.
All of this happened in an instant; it was unbelievably fast. All of the surrounding Slaughter Realm cultivators were shaken!
“Xu Mu!!”
“He is Allheaven’s Thunder Celestial Xu Mu!” Someone immediately recognized Wang Lin’s identity.
Wang Lin’s face was cold. There were about 100 cultivators before him. Although there were many of them, he considered none of them a threat! If it was before, it would be impossible for Wang Lin to face these cultivators. However, now that he had become a 5-star royal ancient god, everything was different!
Wang Lin took a step, ripples appeared under his feet, and he disappeared.
“Spatial Bending!!!” An early stage Nirvana Scryer cultivator’s eyes opened wide. Shock and aghast filled his eyes and his scalp went numb. He was about to lose his wits, and he retreated without hesitation.
“He actually knows Spatial Bending. No matter how many people my Slaughter Realm has, it will be extremely difficult to hurt him!”
Wang Lin’s figure disappeared. When reappeared, he was behind an Illusory Yin cultivator. After he appeared, it looked like his fist slightly punched forward and landed on the cultivator’s back.
That person didn’t even have the qualifications to dodge or detect this punch. He trembled and popping sounds echoed from his body. A powerful force rushed into his body, causing his bones to shatter inch by inch. Then his body exploded with a bang.
After grabbing this person’s origin soul, Wang Lin’s figure disappeared.
A mid stage Nirvana Scryer cultivator’s eyes were red and he shouted, “Form a formation!!” However, just as he shouted, his expression changed. He suddenly turned, opened his mouth, and spat out a ray of red light.
There was a long sword inside the red light, and it released a whistle when it shot forward. There were thousands of soul fragments coming from the sword. The mournful cries of the souls made the flying sword reach a peak!
“This sword is very good!” A cold voice came from all directions. Wang Lin stepped out from the void before the mid stage Nirvana Scryer cultivator. His hand reached out and instantly grew into the arm of an ancient god. He grabbed the flying sword and pulled it back.
The mid stage Nirvana Scryer cultivator let out a muffled groan and his face became pale. This flying sword was his life treasure, and now that Wang Lin had cut off his connection to it, he was seriously injured.
However, he felt a sense of panic that overrode all of this.
“To be able to so easily take my life treasure. This person… What exactly is his cultivation level!?!” This mid stage Nirvana Scryer cultivator was famous even in the Slaughter Realm. His prestige was even higher than that of Killer Yu Fei.
However, at this moment, he was truly terrified, especially when he remembered how Yu Fei had escaped back to the Slaughter Realm but was still killed by a giant hand that came through the vortex. Recalling this made his scalp go numb.
Without hesitation, he quickly retreated and slapped his bag of holding. A large amount of jades flew out and he shouted, “Explode!”
These jades all exploded, forming a powerful impact.
All of this happened in a flash. After taking the flying sword, Wang Lin charged out without hesitation. The explosion of all those jades had no effect on him. The mid stage Nirvana Scryer cultivator was completely shocked when Wang Lin approached him. Wang Lin’s two fingers formed a sword and he pressed it down between the mid stage Nirvana Scryer cultivator’s eyebrows.
With a bang, this famous mid stage Nirvana Scryer cultivator’s body collapsed. His origin soul was forced by out by Wang Lin, and before he could escape, he was caught by Wang Lin.
At this instant, Wang Lin finally felt his own change. It wasn’t that a mid stage Nirvana Scryer cultivator was too weak, it was just that he had grown strong enough to stand among the powerful!
As for Qing Shui, as he laughed, he charged toward the tower at the center of the Slaughter Realm.
As he closed in, the black-robed old man sitting inside the tower suddenly opened his eyes and revealed a gloomy expression. As the Vice Realm Master of the Slaughter Realm, he couldn’t help but tremble. Without hesitation, his body divided into two identical black-robed old men. One of them waved his right hand and a crack appeared in the void.
There were countless small vortexes that emitted hissing sounds around the edge of this crack.
After ripping open the crack, one of them stepped into it. The other let out a cold snort as he turned into a gust of black wind and charged out of the tower.
The black wind flew out extremely fast, and the black-robed old man appeared before Qing Shui with a gloomy expression. He shouted, “Sir, you are pushing us too far!”
There was a flash of coldness in Qing Shui’s eyes. His right hand formed a seal, and without hesitation, he waved his hand. Eight black dragons suddenly appeared and charged at the old man.
At the same time, Qing Shui’s body flickered and arrived next to the tower. His hands formed a seal as he pushed them out and calmly said, “Heaven and Earth Ice Seal!”
In an instant, Qing Shui’s celestial origin activated and a powerful chill spread out from his body. Countless drops of rain appeared and immediately turn into ice crystals.
Popping sounds echoed as all the ice crystals collapsed and a ray of blue light shot out. This blue light swept through the Slaughter Realm. It was as if the world had changed colors, and the entire Slaughter Realm turned blue. It was as if all the passages connecting to the Slaughter Realm had been sealed.
Qing Shui walked out from the blue light, and with a point of his right hand, the tower collapsed into dust. Inside it was a crack, and inside the crack was a black-robed old man.
Half of this old man’s body had entered the void, but at this moment, he was struggling against a large amount of blue light. However, now matter how hard he struggled, he couldn’t leave through the crack.
Qing Shui closed in and his right hand reached out. He immediately pulled the old man out from the crack.
Just as Qing Shui pulled the old man out, there was a flash of coldness in his eyes. He immediately jumped up and pulled the old man to block his back.
Chapter 951 – Yield for Me!
Just at this instant, two rays of purple light flew out from underground. One of them shot directly toward Wang Lin, the other pierced through the old man. The old man’s eyes opened wide and his body and origin soul were destroyed by the purple light that was meant for Qing Shui.
The purple light shined brightly and filled the world, completely suppressing the blue light sealing the realm. Killing intent flash across Qing Shui’s eyes and red light appeared on his red index finger. His Ji Realm had recovered a bit, and it collided with the purple light.
A heaven-shaking explosion echoed and the purple light was forced to retreat. It then turned into a person. It was a middle-aged man with purple hair, and eyes were filled with killing intent.
“This old man is the Slaughter Realm’s Realm Master Ling Yunzi!”
“Ji Realm!! So my wife’s belonging is in your hands!” Qing Shui was forced back several steps as he stared at the purple-haired man. His eyes were filled with monstrous killing intent.
“Qing Shui is a former Celestial Lord of the Thunder Celestial Realm. Rumor has it that after his resurrection, his cultivation hasn’t recovered. Although he is still very strong, I have a Pseudo Nirvana Void treasure. Even though it is broken, it is enough for me to battle him. Killing Qing Shui will be a great accomplishment!” The purple-haired man let out a cold snort and created a large amount of purple mist. As he charged forward, six clones appeared and also charged at Qing Shui.
The Slaughter Realm had a Pseudo Nirvana Void treasure. Even though it was seriously damaged, it was still quite strong. It was given by the grand elder of the Alliance to the first Realm Master of the Slaughter Realm to use as a realm protection treasure!
As the purple mist spread out, Qing Shui charged into the mist filled with killing intent. Thunderous rumbles came from within the purple mist as Qing Shui began his battle with the purple-haired man!
Both of them had the Ji Realm, and a chilly aura shrouded the purple mist!
As for Wang Lin, his expression was cold, and whenever he merged with the world, he would kill a person. At this moment, he had just stepped out from the void, but he raised his head and his pupils shrank.
He saw a ray of purple light come from where Qing Shui was. This purple light far too fast, and what made Wang Lin’s heart sink was that he felt a sliver of Ji Realm in there!
“Ji Realm!” Without hesitation, Wang Lin retreated when the purple light closed in. At the same time, his hand reached out and the ancient god stars between his eyebrows began to rotate. Soon, a ray of light gathered in Wang Lin’s right hand.
“Royal clan weapon, God Slaying Spear!”
The light condensed very fast and the spear appeared in the blink of an eye. It wasn’t 1,000 feet long this time, just the size of an ordinary spear. Wang Lin grabbed it and mercilessly threw it!
It collided with the purple light in an instant!
There was a loud explosion that echoed across the world and an indescribable shockwave spread like crazy. Some of the cultivators weren’t able to doge fast enough, so their bodies immediately collapsed, causing their deaths.
The God Slaying Spear wasn’t damaged at all. It had only dimmed a little, and it returned to Wang Lin’s hand.
“The weapon of the royal ancient gods can resist this level of Ji Realm!” Wang Lin’s eyes shined as the spear in his hand slowly disappeared.
“Unfortunately, with my current cultivation, I can only create an illusion. The real God Slaying Spear is with Tuo Sen!” As Wang Lin retreated, he disappeared in a flash. When he reappeared, he was behind a Slaughter Realm cultivator, and his finger reached out.
There were less than 100 Slaughter Realm cultivators remaining. None of the remaining people had weak cultivation. They grouped up and all made hand seals. They all chanted together and then the entire Slaughter Realm trembled. Of the large sword buildings, 11 of them immediately collapsed.
11 rays of light flew out and fused into the void as they chanted. A moment later, Wang Lin’s figure appeared from the void with 11 rays of light pursuing him. They were too fast for him, so they closed in on Wang Lin in an instant.
There was a silver sword inside each of the 11 rays of light, and they were filled with monstrous killing intent. Each of these 11 swords were crafted from heavenly metal by the first Realm Master. After being refined in the Slaughter Realm for countless years, they had become peerless slaughter weapons!
The 11 flying swords chasing after Wang Lin let out mournful cries of souls of people killed by the Slaughter Realm. These souls circled the rays of light and pursued Wang Lin like crazy to devour him. It was as if they wanted to pull him in.
“Good swords!” There was a flash of coldness in Wang Lin’s eyes. These 11 swords were indeed excellent, especially when you consider they were all forged around the same time period and all experienced the same amount of refining. Each had begun to show signs of forming their own treasure spirit. If you were to collect them all and condense them, the result would be several times stronger than the four swords Ling Tianhou made!
“If I can take the 99 flying swords, even if my cultivation isn’t a match for Ling Tianhou’s, I should still be able to resist due to the power of this treasure!” Wang Lin’s eyes lit up and he licked his lips.
“This Slaughter Realm indeed does have a lot of treasures!” Hundreds of thoughts flashed through Wang Lin’s mind. Qing Shui didn’t actually need his help, he had asked him to come to give him a chance to obtain a fortune robbing the Slaughter Realm. Qing Shui did this to repay Wang Lin for what he did in the void.
Just at this moment, three people flew out from the 100 or so cultivators nearby!
Among the three people, two of them were at the mid stage of Nirvana Scryer. The third person was an old man with very high cultivation level, late stage Nirvana Scryer!
This old man didn’t step forward when Wang Lin and Qing Shui appeared. Instead, he was cautiously hiding and had only revealed himself now.
The moment they appeared, the old man slapped his bag of holding and four white jade gourds flew out. These four gourds were crystal clear and smooth. The moment they appeared, the old man pointed forward!
The four gourds suddenly began to rotate before the old man and faced off against Wang Lin.
“I request the treasured Celestial Gourd to kill this person!”
The moment the old man spoke, the four gourds trembled and milky white mist came out of them. The mist formed the shadow of four beautiful women, and they fluttered toward Wang Lin.
The other two cultivators beside the old man used their own spells and treasures. One of the hit their own forehead and a black core flew out from between their eyebrows. The core rotated and gave off an eerie aura as the cultivator shouted, “Water of Ten Thousand Lords!”
The core flickered and immediately turned into black water and expanded. In an instant, it covered half the area in a raging sea that swept toward Wang Lin.
The final cultivator emitted large amounts of blood light and his skin was covered in bloodlines. His appearance was extremely ferocious. His hands formed a seal, then he pointed forward and shouted, “Bloody Celestial Net!”
This caused popping sounds to echo inside his body, and those blood lines actually flew out from his body. This large blood net flew toward Wang Lin.
The three of them had used their most powerful spells and treasures. They launched a crazy offense, taking advantage of the moment when Wang Lin was attacked by the 11 swords.
The three of them weren’t the only ones attacking. The remaining almost 100 cultivators all activated their origin energy and launched their attacks at Wang Lin.
Wang Lin’s eyes lit up and he revealed a sneer before spitting out an object. This was the 18 Hell Celestial Sealing Stamp! The moment the stamp appeared, roars came out from within like a storm.
Wang Lin pointed with his right hand. This point was like an unsealing spell that unlocked the 18 layers of hell and allowed the resentful souls to come out.
Wang Lin shouted, “Magic Arsenal!”
In an instant, countless soul fragments filled the world and charged at the surroundings. Most noticeable was the Blood Ancestor’s soul that let out a roar at the world.
Since Wang Lin had casted Magic Arsenal, he no longer paid attention to them. What he focused on were the 11 crystal lights chasing him! His body flickered. Instead charging forward, he retreated. As he did so, he reached out with his ancient god hand and grabbed a ray of light.
The moment he grabbed it, he felt a sting of pain from his hand. A flash of coldness appeared in his eyes and his origin energy and ancient god power surged. He mercilessly squeezed but was surprised to find that he couldn’t shatter the crystal light!
Instead, this caused a sharp rebound from the crystal light. Tens of thousands of souls flew out with twisted expressions and tried to devour Wang Lin.
“I have many spells related to souls. A mere tens of thousands of souls dare to be insolent before me?!” The coldness in Wang Lin’s eyes disappeared and was replaced with thunder!
His origin soul was the ancient thunder dragon that controlled the thunder of the heavens. A vortex appeared between Wang Lin’s eyebrows and his origin soul flew out, revealing his ancient thunder dragon soul. It let out a thunderous roar.
Roar!!!
The world shook from this roar, and large amounts of thunder gathered from all directions. In an instant, the Slaughter Realm turned into a thunder hell!
The deafening rumbles of thunder echoed across the world. The rumbles entered the ears of the cultivators and even caught the attention of the two people fighting in the purple mist. Qing Shui’s gaze was filled with admiration, while the purple-haired man’s gaze was gloomy.
Endless thunder filled the area. The thunderous roar made it seem like all the thunder in the world had gathered and had to submit to Wang Lin. A bolt of thunder flashed down toward the crystal light in his hand.
It was like Wang Lin held the thunder of the world that attracted all thunder!
“You, yield for me!!” Wang Lin let out a roar. The tens of thousands of souls from the crystal light no longer revealed ferocious expressions now and instead were filled with panic. As the endless thunder gathered, they all revealed expressions of surrender.
The crystal light collapsed and then a silver seven foot sword appeared in his hand. The surrounding tens of thousands of souls all entered the sword.
There was a “9” carved on the body of the sword. It let out a hum as it yielded to Wang Lin.
Chapter 952 – Trace of Nirvana Cleanser
This sword was seven feet long and three inches wide. The silver light it emitted was like moonlight. It floated in Wang Lin’s hand and let out sword hums.
Wang Lin’s right hand touched it and he left his divine sense mark on it.
The long sword hummed loudly and then a ray of sword energy shot out and circled around Wang Lin.
“It indeed is a good sword!” Joy filled Wang Lin’s eyes and he flew after the next flying sword. The surrounding cultivators simply had no way to stop Wang Lin. Magic Arsenal had summoned numerous souls to fight them, and the endless thunder continued to descend.
Wang Lin took a step and his hands reached out. Another sword was caught in his hand and began to struggle. Its struggle was intense, as if it was humiliating to be in Wang Lin’s hands. As it struggled, the sword shot ray of sword energy upwards.
At this instant, the remaining nine flying swords all let out a sword hymns and their speed increased.
Just as the nine swords closed in, they fused into one fierce sword that stabbed toward Wang Lin.
There was a flash of coldness in Wang Lin’s eyes and the sword in his hand began to struggle even more. He let out a cold snort and simply gave up suppressing it. His left hand formed seals and restrictions appeared, landing on the sword. After the sword was sealed, Wang Lin threw it inside his bag.
At this moment, the sword formed by the nine swords closed in and surrounded him in a powerful burst of sword energy. Wang Lin could immediately feel a wind that could pierce one’s body and directly sink into one’s origin soul.
Just at this instant, there was a flash of dark red coming out from the Slaughter Realm in the distance. It was a middle-aged man in a red robe that had charged out.
The moment the middle-aged man appeared, his body flickered and moved like lighting to the center of the battle. His right hand moved, and under his control, the four figures created by the four gourds broke through all the obstructions to charge at Wang Lin.
This middle-aged man followed closely after. He seemed to turn into a cloud of red smoke as he moved and charged at Wang Lin.
He had remained hidden for a very long time, waiting for a chance to attack. He didn’t dare to provoke Qing Shui, and he was even a bit afraid of Xu Mu. Looking at the ring of cultivators, he sneered and thought, “It seems that Master Devil God had the same idea as me. However, if I had taken the Alliance’s summon for all the Nirvana Cleanser cultivators, then I wouldn’t be in such a scary situation.”
Wang Lin’s mind trembled and he stepped forward without hesitation as he went past the nine swords that had fused into one. His right hand formed a seal and he pointed behind him as he shouted, “Call the Wind!”
In an instant, a black wind appeared in the world and turned into three black dragons. They let out roar and charged out. The four figures immediately entangled around one black dragon, and there was a trace of confusion in the dragon’s cold eyes.
However, the other two black dragons didn’t stop and charged directly at the red smoke formed by the middle-aged man.
A laugh came from the red mist and then it dissipated and turned into the middle-aged man. His eyes were bright and he moved like an illusion. He unexpectedly went between the two dragons and charged toward Wang Lin.
“Xu Mu, don’t try to hide your cultivation level anymore. To go unscathed among so many Illusory Ying, Corporeal Yang, and Nirvana Scryer cultivators, you must be a Nirvana Cleanser cultivator!”
Wang Lin’s eyes lit up. He had been wondering why there were no Nirvana Cleanser cultivators in the Slaughter Realm. However, his divine sense was still at the Nirvana Scryer stage, so he couldn’t detect them.
However, after he saw the middle-aged man, Wang Lin felt an aura that was weaker than that of the Nirvana Shatterer old monsters but far stronger than that of Nirvana Scryer cultivators!
“Nirvana Cleanser!” Wang Lin took a deep breath and battle intent filled his eyes. More accurately, this was the second time he had faced a Nirvana Cleanser cultivator. The first time was Blood Ancestor, and this middle-aged man was the second!
“This person’s aura isn’t as strong as Blood Ancestor’s, so he should be at the early stage of Nirvana Cleanser!”
As the middle-aged man closed in, he waved his hand and the nine swords that fused into one trembled. It circled him and released a yielding hymn.
“Let’s use this person to test my true strength!” Wang Lin’s eyes lit up and he no longer retreated. His right hand formed a fist and he charged straight ahead.
Although the middle-aged man’s expression was calm, his heart was disturbed. He couldn’t quite see through the person before him. On the surface, this Xu Mu was only at the early stage of Nirvana Scryer, and the difference between them could be considered heaven and earth.
However, he didn’t know why he felt fear the instant he saw Xu Mu. It was as if there was a powerful aura coming from Xu Mu that that even he was wary of.
“This person must be hiding his cultivation!” The middle-aged man didn’t underestimate Wang Lin but treated Wang Lin as someone at the same cultivation level as him. His right hand formed a seal and he pointed out. Countless specks of light gathered in his palm.
“Extraction of origin energy of the world!” Wang Lin’s pupils shrank. In addition to controlling laws, the other ability Nirvana Cleanser cultivators had was to extract origin energy from the world.
This was why Nirvana Cleanser cultivators were powerful. With the ability to extract origin energy from the world, they didn’t have to be afraid of wasting origin energy and could use spells at any time.
The middle-aged man pointed with his finger and shouted, “Hongze Desolate Sand!” The specks of light that gathered from all directions turned into black sand. This was no ordinary sand but Desolate Sand formed by a spell using origin energy.
Every grain of sand contained a large amount of origin energy. There were also powerful restrictions contained within each grain of sand.
Wang Lin moved forward with his right fist. The ancient god stars under his third eye rotated rapidly and then he mercilessly threw a punch!
There was a shocking explosion. An giant ancient god arm formed as Wang Lin threw that punch. It was like the hand of a giant had thrown that punch.
The power of an ancient god against the origin energy gathered by a Nirvana Cleanser cultivator!
The Desolate Sand covered the world. As Wang Lin’s fist closed in, the middle-aged man laughed and shouted, “Hongze Illusion, become real!”
The endless sand gathered. At the moment Wang Lin’s fist arrived, it unexpectedly formed a giant fist the same size as Wang Lin’s fist!
This was the spell of the middle-aged man!
“The law I comprehended is the law of illusion!” The middle-aged man waved his hand. The giant fist formed by the sand suddenly collided with Wang Lin’s punch.
Endless rumbles echoed within the Slaughter Realm and a storm spread out everywhere. Some cultivators weren’t able to dodge quickly enough and were caught by the storm. They were dragged by the storm and screamed as they turned into a mist of blood and became part of the storm.
At the center of the storm, the giant fist made of the sand from the middle-aged man’s spell collapsed into sand and was blown back.
Wang Lin’s body also trembled and numbness spread through his right arm, followed by bursts of pain. His body also retreated due to the impact of the force.
“This is a Nirvana Cleanser cultivator!” Wang Lin’s eyes became cold.
The middle-aged man was even more certain that this Xu Mu was indeed hiding his cultivation. If this Xu Mu was really at the Nirvana Scryer stage, then there was no way he would’ve resisted this truth illusion.
The middle-aged man’s hands beat the void before him and the origin energy in his body surged. The sand that was pushed back immediately gathered and formed a giant sand crane. It let out a heaven-shaking cry as it charged toward the retreating Wang Lin.
Just at this moment, white light came from the ground and a green-robed old man appeared. He licked his lips and charged out as his eyes lit up.
“The reason this old man gave up the Alliance’s summon and hid for this long was to avoid trouble. With Qing Shu here, I normally wouldn’t have shown myself under any circumstances and would have looked for a chance to escape. However, with Master Empty Fantasy battling Xu Mu, this gives me, Master Devil God, a chance to obtain some merit!”
The old man’s figure was extremely quick, and he charged toward Wang Lin. As Wang Lin retreated, his eyes revealed a vicious light and his hands formed a seal. Two green flames condensed in his palms.
This old man had always been extremely cautious throughout his life and never did anything he wasn’t confident in. This was the same in the Slaughter Realm.
Back on his cultivation planet, he carefully spent thousands of years slaughtering countless cultivators and stole their pills and treasures. Even after he left, no one knew he had done all of this.
In the Slaughter Realm, his caution reached its limit, his timing this time was also extremely good! In an instant, this old man had closed in on Wang Lin.
He was not afraid of Wang Lin detecting him, and his origin energy surged out as he charged forward. This caused the surroundings to tremble and distort.
“I want to see how you will use Spatial Bending!” Killing intent filled the eyes of the old man named Master Devil God. His body was like an arrow, and he swung his hand.
However, at this moment, a shocking change occurred!
A miserable scream came from the purple mist and then seven purple figures fell from the sky. The seven figures collapsed one by one until only one remained!
Chapter 953 – Hairpin
This purple body was the Slaughter Realm’s Realm Master!
His face was pale, blood was coming out of the corner of his mouth, and his eyes were filled with sock.
A ray of red light descended from the purple mist. It was too fast, but it didn’t charge at the purpled-haired man. Unexpectedly, it went after Master Devil God!
Master Devil God’s expression changed greatly and he wanted to dodge. However, before Qing Shui’s Ji Realm, he had no qualification to dodge. The Ji Realm directly pierced through his chest.
The old man’s eyes immediately became dim and his body collapsed. It could be said that he died the most clean death among the Nirvana Cleanser cultivators. When he died, endless melancholy surrounded him.
The red lightning didn’t stop after it pierced through the old man’s body; it swept through the area. There were only sounds of explosions as the bodies of most of the surrounding cultivators collapsed!
This was the power of Qing Shui’s Ji Realm!
Wang Lin had already prepared to open his third eye and use source origin energy to face Master Devil God’s approach. However, with Qing Shui’s help, he was able to immediately charge after Master Empty Fantasy.
The purple mist churned in the sky and quickly contracted into a fist-sized ball that floated into Qing Shui’s hand. There was also a carved purple hairpin in his other hand.
Qing Shui’s gaze toward the hairpin contained a hint of gentleness. However, when he looked at the cultivators of the Slaughter Realm, that gentleness disappeared. Instead, his eyes were filled with indifference as he walked down.
“A place that I, Qing Shui, want to slaughter would never have any survivors!”
The purple-haired man’s face was deathly pale, and without hesitation, his right hand formed a seal. He pointed at the void and then his entire arm collapsed into a pile of flesh. The flesh rotated rapidly and forced open a crack. He was going to enter the crack as quickly as possible.
“All of you deserve to die for using the item I left my deceased wife as a treasure!” With that, Qing Shui pointed with his finger!
With this point of his finger, a gloomy voice came from Qing Shui’s mouth.
“Celestial spell, Mountain Crumble!”
After he spoke, the Slaughter Realm trembled and six large mountains appeared out of nowhere. Each of the mountains were 20,000 feet tall, and at the moment they appeared, they gave off a powerful pressure.
The moment Qing Shui spoke, the six mountains flashed and fused into one. They became one mountain that was indistinguishable from a real mountain!
The mountain began to tremble and black smoke came out from its highest point. As the black smoke filled the sky, a dark red flame burst out from the peak.
The temperature of the flame could destroy all life. It sprayed out with large pieces of rock that mercilessly smashed down from the sky.
The earth shook as if it was armageddon.
Layers of dust filled with poison covered the world. It made the entire world look like it had turned into ruins.
Waves of magma came out from the peak of the mountain. The Slaughter Realm was immediately filled with endless heat and a destructive aura.
This magma contained the power to destroy anything in the world!
The cultivators in the Slaughter Realm whose cultivation was lacking were affected by the poisonous dust. They screamed as their bodies withered and disappeared into the void.
Some of them struggled within the magma. However, the temperature of the magma was too high. Even when they used spells and treasures, it would be difficult for them to escape!
The crack the purple-haired man had opened immediately collapsed thanks to this spell. He retreated with a pale face. He was at the early stage of Nirvana Shatterer and had used the broken Pseudo Nirvana Void treasure, yet he was no match for Qing Shui. At this moment, he only had one thought, and that was to quickly escape!
“Unfortunately, I’m the only Nirvana Shatterer cultivator in the Slaughter Realm and most of the Nirvana Cleanser cultivators are at Alliance headquarters. Otherwise, with enough help, I could use the 99 sword formation. However, I fear that not even the 99 sword formation could withstand this spell!”
As for Master Empty Fantasy, his face turned pale and he gave up on fighting Wang Lin. Seeing Wang Lin chasing him, he cursed and threw the nine swords away. He knew that Wang Lin was interested in the nine swords and wanted to use them to distract him.
Wang Lin’s eyes lit up and he gave up on pursuing. His right hand reached out and immediately grabbed the nine swords. The nine swords began to struggle violently.
Qing Shui’s eyes revealed monstrous killing intent as he stretched out his hands and pushed up while shouting, “Mountain, first crumble!”
The moment Qing Shui spoke, the flames that spew out and the magma that flowed out began to tremble and shot into the sky.
During this process, they suddenly collapsed and formed an unimaginable shockwave that spread across the Slaughter Realm. More than 10 cultivators were hit by the flames and magma. They weren’t able to resist and got turned into ashes.
Qing Shui shouted once more, “Second crumble!”
The entire Slaughter Realm trembled and the large peak suddenly crumbled. Endless magma and flames immediately gushed out.
“Third crumble!” Qing Shui’s hand formed a seal and pointed at the distant mountain!
At this instant, this mountain truly collapsed, and countless pieces of gravel scattered and flames swept the sky. In the blink of an eye, there was no sky, only flame!
As the mountain collapsed, endless magma flow out like the sea and occupied all the land in an instant!
The sky was filled with endless flames. The earth was covered in maga. In between was a dense poison mist!
Miserable screams echoed. In a short period of time, everyone other than the purple-haired man and Master Empty Fantasy died!
Even Master Empty Fantasy’s origin energy dissipated and the aghast in his eyes became intense.
The purple-haired man wryly smiled. He gave up on resisting and looked at Qing Shui with a complex gaze. He knew that Qing Shui didn’t want to kill them yet; otherwise, he would have died inside the purple mist.
All the buildings in the Slaughter Realm melted and not a trace of them remained!
Wang Lin stared dumbfoundedly at all of this. He could never have imagined that this Mountain Crumble contained such power!
“This is the celestial spell… Mountains Crumble!”
Qing Shui waved his sleeves and 88 rays of silver light flew out from the magma on the ground. His hand reached out and the 88 rays of silver light were merged into one. He threw it at Wang Lin.
“Since you like it, then I’ll gift it to you!”
Wang Lin grabbed the silver ball and put it inside his bag.
Qing Shui flickered as he turned into black wind and grabbed Master Empty Fantasy and the purple-haired cultivator. Then he mercilessly took a step and the Slaughter Realm began its final collapse.
The Slaughter Realm was originally built in a spatial crack within the Rain Celestial Realm. Now that the space had collapsed, the Slaughter Realm was devoured by the void.
A large vortex immediately appeared under Qing Shui’s feet. His body sank into the vortex. He nodded at Wang Lin and slowly said, “I still have other things to do. Xu Mu, after we separate today, it will be unknown when we will meet again. You… Take care of yourself!” With that, he sank into the vortex and disappeared with Master Empty Fantasy and the purpled-haired cultivator.
Wang Lin silently pondered as he stepped into the vortex as well and left this collapsing Slaughter Realm!
Wang Lin’s figure appeared among the stars. He let out a sigh and looked back. After a long time, Wang Lin’s body flickered and he merged with the world, moving toward planet Tian Yun.
In the distance, Qing Shui calmly moved forward. Behind him, Master Empty Fantasy and the purple-haired cultivator followed him with depressed looks. An mark unique to the Celestial Realm flashed between their eyebrows, the slave mark!
Qing Shui’s hand held an item; it was the purple hairpin. His eyes gradually grew gentle, but they were filled with pain and reminiscence.
“The creator likes to mess with people…” In Qing Shui’s life, he had only shed tears twice. The first time was when the country of Clear Water was destroyed and his parents died. He was a small cultivator who had managed to escape an almost certain-death situation. He was filled with grief and indignation as he shed tears.
The second time was when he went crazy in the Thunder Celestial Realm and killed his love. He shed tears of remorse!
This hairpin had brought back his endless memories and emotions. He remembered that it was the day he became Bai Fan’s disciple that he gifted this hairpin to her…
He could never forget these happy memories.
He felt a stab of pain in his heart, and teardrops fell from Qing Shui’s eyes for the third time in his life.
“Han Yan…”
Memories flowed like the water in his palm that slowly trickled down his fingers. The cold feeling was something no one could forgot… The things he thought of inadvertently were sad enough to drown himself.
Scenes of the past appeared before Qing Shui’s eyes. His dead wife’s dimming gaze, and even until the end, she always held this hairpin.
The tip of the hairpin remained pierced deep within her heart. Fresh blood was dripping down from the hairpin and scattering all over the ground.
“Qing Shui, I didn’t die because of you, I died because of myself… You shouldn’t feel bad, you shouldn’t be sad all your life. You didn’t harm me…”
In order to not make Qing Shui feel indignation and guilt when he became sober, this woman, at the moment of Qing Shui’s madness, smiled and killed herself before him.
Her gentle and sentimental gaze was filled with unwillingness. Her smile that contained her silent tears contained the power to awaken Qing Shui!
The Qing Shui back then awakened due to such a scene.
“The husband in my mind is a man with an indomitable spirit. He will not abandon his life due to one moment in his life or waste his life away. Instead, he will use all his power to persist… And find out the reason for all of this!”
Qing Shui’s eyes were filled with sadness as he muttered, “Rest assured, Han Yan, I’ll find the cause to all of this…”
Chapter 954 – Young Master
Wang Lin’s figure moved through space like an illusion. He didn’t head directly to planet Tian Yun but looked for Lei Ji, the big-headed boy, and Ta Shan using the connection he had with them.
During the chaotic battle, Wang Lin had no time to worry about them. Afterward, he had gone into the void and disappeared.
After he left the void, it wasn’t until now that he had the time to look for them.
Wang Lin had even lost track of Ta Shan during the battle. However, due to the connection of the seal on Ta Shan, it wasn’t hard to find his trace.
Wang Lin remembered that in the battle, the three of them weren’t affected. At this moment, he closed his eyes and his divine sense spread out. After a long time, he felt a familiar fluctuation to the east.
Wang Lin’s expression was calm as he opened his eyes and stepped forward. Ripples appeared under his feet and he disappeared.
“The Mountain Crumble celestial spell was very powerful. Although I expected Celestial Emperor Bai Fan’s latter three spells to be stronger than the first three, this Mountain Crumble was beyond my imagination… Mountain Crumble, Mountain Crumble, what kind of comprehension did Celestial Emperor Bai Fan have to create such a powerful spell… I don’t even know when I will be able to create my own spell…”
There was a rock floating slowly far east of Wang Lin. This rock obviously came from a collapsed cultivation planet. As it floated, small pieces of it fell off.
There was a faint fluctuation of spells around it that dissipated like smoke. This rock looked very ordinary. There were simply too many rocks like this among the stars, so no one would pay attention to it.
Ta Shan had hidden himself inside the rock. After he lost contact with Wang Lin, his mind was blank. However, Celestial Emperor Qing Lin’s spell melted the origin soul into the body and it retained some intelligence. It was very different from the puppets that couldn’t think.
After Ta Shan found that Wang Lin was no longer there, he subconsciously found his rock. He entered it and quietly cultivated within.
On this day, Ta Shan suddenly opened his eyes. His eyes were completely calm, without any change. His body moved to the outside of the rock and stood on top of it.
A large amount of ripples appeared before him and Wang Lin stepped out.
Ta Shan’s expression didn’t change when he saw Wang Lin, he only revealed a respectful expression.
Wang Lin smiled as he waved at Ta Shan. Ta Shan took a step as he turned into a shadow and disappeared behind Wang Lin.
“Next is Big Head and Lei Ji.” Wang Lin closed his eyes as he felt for the imprint on Big Head. After a long time, he frowned.
“Big Head’s imprint is very weak, as if it could dissipate at any time.” He took a step and then ripples appeared and he disappeared.
There was a large figure moving through the stars, leaving behind a trail of blood. His body was covered in wounds, and every step he took he would leave behind a large amount of blood.
Almost every step caused blood to come out of this giant’s body. What was even more scary was that there were deep pits between the first through seventh bones on his spine. Each hole gave off an eerie, green glow. In addition, there were similar green pits all over the different joints on his body, at least dozens!
There was pale cultivator on his shoulder. This cultivator’s appearance was strange; he had a very big head. However, this cultivator was extremely weak.
There was a black handprint that gave off a stench on the big-headed cultivator’s back. There was also black smoke coming from his back that gave off a sizzling sound.
In addition, the back of the big-headed boy had sunken in and was decaying at a rapid pace. If it wasn’t for the fact that he was resisting with his own power, he would have already gone unconscious due to the pain.
“Lei Ji, leave me behind and leave on your own.” Black blood came out from the corner of the big-headed boy’s mouth and his eyes had lost all their luster.
The big figure started moving even faster after pondering for a while. After a long time, he said, “Big Head, you were injured to save me. I, Lei Ji, am a member of the Giant Demon Clan, how can I just leave you? Even if I leave you, they will not give up their pursuit! Their goal is me! Don’t say anymore and focus on healing!”
The big-headed cultivator bitterly smiled as he looked at the stars before him, and his eyes became even more bleak. He seemed to see his mother from many years ago. His mother didn’t seem to be scolding him, she looked at him with a gentle gaze and called to him.
“Mother…” the big-headed boy muttered, then death aura surrounded his body. In a trance, he seemed to see his family and all the people killed by him.
These people appeared before him one by one and coldly looked at him.
The big-headed boy’s body trembled and he felt very cold. His coldness wasn’t just in his body, but also the loneliness of his heart. The memories of his childhood continued to resurface.
“Am I going to leave… After thousands of years of cultivations, in the end, I’m still going to leave…” The stench from the black handprint on the big-headed boy’s back became even stronger and almost his entire back turned black.
His eyes slowly closed as if he was shrouded by coldness, and he was gradually losing consciousness.
“Big Head, hold on! I believe that Master will come and find us!” Just as the big-headed boy was about to close his eyes, Lei Ji’s roar entered his ears.
The big-headed boy’s body trembled and he was just barely able to open his eyes. He wryly smiled and whispered, “Is that so…”
There were two 10,000-foot-tall figures chasing Lei Ji. They were like two giants taking large strides while pursuing them.
They each had the mark of an axe flashing between their eyebrows. Their gazes were cold and contained killing intent.
There was a young man wearing a blue shirt sitting on top of one of the giants. He was extremely handsome, but there was a hint of evil on his face.
He wasn’t sitting in the lotus position, he was leaning back with a bunch of red cherries in his hand. Sometimes he would eat one as he watched Lei Ji with a teasing yet must-obtain gaze.
“There has been no flesh in this Alliance that has been able to escape from this young master. I didn’t expect to encounter the body of a royal Giant Demon Clan member when I just came out to play. Not bad, not bad!
“That old thing in the family said that the Alliance is in chaos due to the war, so I shouldn’t casually come out. If I hadn’t come out, how could I have met this kind of body?” The young man ate a cherry with a smile and immediately spat out the seed. The seed shot out in a ray of light toward Lei Ji.
The seed was so fast that it caught up to Lei Ji in an instant. It exploded into a green skull that attacked the eighth section on Lei Ji’s spine.
However, just as this green skull was about to press down, a hand came out from the void and grabbed the skull. It mercilessly squeezed and crushed the skull!
A ripple appeared behind Lei Ji and a cold voice came out.
“You sure have guts to dare to hurt my mount and my servant!”
“Master!” Lei Ji trembled and suddenly turned around.
“Master!” The big-headed boy suddenly opened his eyes and revealed unimaginable joy.
Chapter 955 – Inner Disciple of the Corpse Sect
As the ripples spread, Wang Lin walked out calmly. He didn’t even look at the young man in blue, he only looked at Lei Ji’s injuries and the big-headed boy, who was at the border of life and death.
After he saw the black handprint on the big-headed boy’s back, coldness flashed through Wang Lin’s eyes.
His right hand reached out and he grabbed the big-headed boy. Then his right palm hit the big-headed boy and large amounts of his origin energy entered the big-headed boy’s body.
The big-headed boy’s face turned red and he coughed out a mouthful of black blood. This blood gave off a powerful stench.
At this moment, the blue-robed young man was still eating the cherries and his body was leaning back. After eating a cherry, he pointed at Wang Lin and said, “Sun Gouzi, you have possessed this Giant Demon Clan body long enough to use your cultivation now. Go kill this person that insulted me.”
The Giant Demon Clan member beside the youth revealed a respectful expression and said, “As you command!”
As he spoke, he suddenly turned around and stared at Wang Lin with killing intent. He took a step forward, formed a fist, and closed in with a grin.
When he closed in, the big fellow named Sun Gouzi’s right hand formed a seal and a large ocean appeared under his feet. A big wave formed in the ocean, and it looked like the big fellow arrived riding the wave.
“Junior, accept death!” As his right hand pressed forward, the ocean seemed to boil and gathered at this right hand. It turned into a sea dragon and charged at Wang Lin with a roar.
The moment the sea dragon charged, there was even the smell of the ocean. Wang Lin kept his right hand on the big-headed boy’s back and didn’t even look at the sea dragon or the big fellow behind it.
This big fellow was only at the early stage of Nirvana Scryer. Ignoring Wang Lin’s current 5-star royal ancient god body, it wouldn’t even be difficult for him to kill this big fellow with his origin energy cultivation!
Although the Giant Demon Clan members’ bodies were strong, they were far too weak compared to the ancient gods’ bodies. Wang Lin waved his left hand and a powerful force surged out.
This power was invisible, but the moment Wang Lin waved his hand, crackling sounds came from the space between him and the big fellow. It was as if the space between them was going to shatter.
This scene caused the eyes of the youth who was about to bite a cherry to narrow, and he couldn’t help but pause for a moment.
As for the big fellow, just as the sea dragon formed by his spell shot out, it was met with an unimaginable force. The sea dragon trembled and let out a miserable hiss. It was stopped dead in its tracks and was pushed back by this endless force.
The scales on its body immediately flaked off and dissipated into water. As the sea dragon was constantly pushed back, it completely dissipated.
As for the big fellow, his pupils shrank. He wanted to dodge, but it was too late. When the sea dragon was pushed back, his chest sunk in and he coughed out a large mouthful of blood. Then he quickly retreated.
Explosions echoed inside him. Every explosion caused a large amount of blood mist to spray out from his body.
It only took several breaths of time for him to become a bloody mess. Horror filled his eyes, and when he saw Wang Lin’s left hand reach toward him, he was about to lose his wits.
“Young Master, save me!!”
The youth in blue’s expression became gloomy, then he suddenly stood up and grabbed the stem of a cherry. He squeezed his hands and all the cherries exploded. The countless seeds covered in red liquid shot at Wang Lin.
As they flew, the cherry seeds turned into green skulls. Surrounded by the red liquid, the skulls gave off bursts of sharp screams.
However, this youth in blue was a step too late. It was as if the Giant Demon Clan man had lost control of his body. Fear filled his eyes and he was pulled toward Wang Lin.
He was pulled extremely fast and was next to Wang Lin in an instant. Wang Lin’s left hand lightly hit the big fellow. His eyes dimmed and he felt an unimaginable force shaking his body. It actually shook his origin soul out of the body.
The moment the origin soul flew out, Wang Lin grabbed it. Wang Lin’s hand was like a claw, and no matter how the origin soul struggled, it wasn’t able to escape. Wang Lin lifted his foot and kicked the Giant Demon Clan body. The body immediately flew and collided with the green skulls covered in the red liquid.
There was a heaven-shaking explosion and the big fellow’s body exploded into countless pieces. However, due to the strange suction from the green skulls, instead of the body pieces scattering, they were completely absorbed by the green skulls.
All of this sounds slow, but it happened in a flash. From start to end, Wang Lin still had his right hand on the big-headed boy’s back. Large amounts of black mist came out from the big-headed body’s head.
The death aura on the big-headed boy gradually disappeared and was replaced with vitality.
“What are you, Sir?” The youth in blue’s mind was shaken when he saw all of this. He knew that no ordinary cultivator could kill an early stage Nirvana Scryer cultivator so easily, especially one that had possessed the body of a Giant Demon Clan member!
However, no matter how he look at the person before him, this person was only an early stage Nirvana Scryer cultivator.
Wang Lin didn’t answer the youth in blue’s question. He raised his right hand and pressed down on the big-headed boy’s back once more. When he pressed his hand down this time, traces of distorted mist came out!
After his hand landed on the big-headed boy’s back, the black handprint unexpectedly moved. Then five black soul fragments formed a palm and attempted to devour Wang Lin’s hand.
Wang Lin’s expression was neutral. Bursts of miserable screams that could only be heard with divine sense echoed as the five soul fragments died.
Endless black gas came out from the back of the big-headed boy. The big-headed boy felt as if his blood flow had reversed and his body trembled violently until he coughed out a large piece of black blood. This black blood immediately melted like a piece of ice and dissipated.
All of this only took several breaths of time. Wang Lin withdrew his right hand. Then he coldly looked at the youth in blue and took a step forward.
The youth in blue’s expression changed greatly. Without his order, the Giant Demon Clan member quickly retreated. Fear filled the eyes of the big fellow. Even though he knew he was a bit stronger than his companions, he was no match for someone who could easily kill his companion, so he had zero will to fight.
As he retreated, the youth in blue’s expression became gloomy and he shouted, “I’m the Corpse Sect’s inner disciple. This is all a misunderstanding; I hope Sir won’t pursue this matter!” As he spoke, his right hand formed a seal and a green gas came out from his body. It quickly entered his right hand, and in the blink of an eye, the youth’s right hand was covered in a green light.
“Corpse Sect!” Wang Lin’s expression changed.
The youth in blue revealed a vicious gaze. Taking advantage of Wang Lin’s moment of pause, he waved his hand without hesitation. He then shouted, “Five Ghost Yin God Wheel!”
Five rays of green light came from the youth’s hand and became five ghosts. They let out mournful cries and then turned into green handprints that shot at Wang Lin.
The five ghosts revealed ferocious expressions, and an extremely powerful aura spread out and instantly closed in on Wang Lin.
Wang Lin’s expression was neutral as he casually wave his hand. A powerful gust of wind flew at the handprint.
The handprint exploded and the five ghosts let out miserable screams. Wang Lin took a step forward, his right hand formed a fist, and he mercilessly threw a punch!
A rumble echoed and a storm swept by. The youth in blue’s face was pale, but he didn’t panic. He carefully looked at Wang Lin and then pressed his hands down on the body of the Giant Demon Clan member below him.
This giant’s body trembled and he revealed a bitter expression. Then his hands formed a seal and he pointed up as his voice echoed.
“Giant Demon Clan’s bloodline ability!”
After he poke, the giant’s body trembled and a crack appeared between his eyebrows. A ghostly light also appeared, but it didn’t attack Wang Lin. Instead, it wrapped around the youth in blue. Then a vortex appeared behind the youth.
The vortex appeared without any warning and there were no suction force coming from it. However, the youth in blue immediately stepped into the vortex.
“Giant Demon Clan’s bloodline ability!” Wang Lin let out a cold snort and then swung his right fist. A storm even more powerful rumbled and then charged at the youth in the vortex.
Just at this moment, the Giant Demon Clan member clenched his teeth and the origin energy in his body reversed. This caused his origin soul to become unstable and made the origin soul and body unbalanced. As the origin energy rushed into his origin soul, he withstood the pain and then his origin soul exploded!
The explosion of the origin soul formed a destructive force and immediately affected his entire body. Then his body exploded too!
This explosive force rushed out, but it didn’t scatter. Instead, all of it went straight toward Wang Lin.
This destructive force swept by like a powerful storm in an attempt to stop Wang Lin. Behind the destructive force was the fading vortex and the sneer of the youth in blue.
“I don’t care who you are, I’ll find your name! You will die for provoking the Corpse Sect!” The young man in blue spoke gloomily as his figure gradually disappeared.
Wang Lin’s expression was calm. The moment the force of the man exploding swept toward him, he slapped his bag of holding and the third God Slaying War Chariot he hadn’t used for a long time flew out!
It turned into a very beautiful butterfly with a bang!
Chapter 956 – The Woman in Pink
The five-colored butterfly was very beautiful, and as it flapped its wings, they released five-colored powder. There was also a blood sparrow next to it. This blood sparrow belonged to Blood God. but it was captured by the five-colored butterfly.
The five-colored butterfly flew out and its left wind gently flapped. The storm sweeping toward it suddenly trembled!
The five-colored butterfly’s left wing flapped again.
The power of law appeared and the destructive shockwave was pushed back. It was as if a pair of large, invisible hands had forced it back.
The third time the five-colored butterfly’s left wing flapped, three more butterflies appeared, and they also flapped their wings. The destruction force sped up and it rushed toward the rapidly shrinking vortex.
Just as the vortex was about to disappear, the destructive force and that sliver of law from the five-colored butterfly penetrated the vortex.
A miserable scream echoed from inside the vortex and then the vortex disappeared…
In the Alliance Star System, there was a sea of souls that no outsider knew about. There were large amounts of land floating within this sea of souls. On one of the islands, there were many buildings. A vortex suddenly appeared next to one of the tall, black buildings.
The moment the vortex appeared, there were sounds of explosions and a large amount of blood sprayed out. The origin soul of the young man in blue flew out from the vortex. It looked as if he was about to collapse at any moment.
Just at this instant, the door of the building suddenly opened, revealing an old man with a very gloomy expression. He was simply too fast and directly grabbed the origin soul.
“Grandpa, save me!” The blue-robed young man, who could barely open his eyes, uttered these words before going into a coma. His origin soul gradually dissipated. Although it didn’t collapse, it was extremely weak.
Wang Lin frowned, he could feel that the moment the power from the five-colored butterfly entered the vortex and attacked the youth, there was a flash of black light that dissolved a majority of the force. Although this black light collapsed, the youth in blue was only seriously injured, not dead.
“Life-saving treasure!” As Wang Lin pondered, he walked toward Lei Ji. Looking at the green light coming from his joints, he pressed down his right hand at each spot.
Every time his fingers landed, the green light would turn into a soul fragment and disappear.
A moment later, there was no more green light on Lei Ji’s body. Lei Ji let out a sigh of relief and looked at Wang Lin with respect.
Lei Ji’s giant body turned into a mountain and flew through the stars. Wang Lin sat on his back, and beside Wang Lin was the big-headed boy, who was healing.
They were getting closer and closer to planet Tian Yun.
Ten days later, Wang Lin looked at the familiar space before him. He knew that not far away was the area that belonged to the rank 7 cultivation country of Tian Yun. During these 10 days, he was thinking about what he should do during this trip to planet Tian Yun. However, even more so, he was pondering over the hand seals Esteemed Xuan Bao had used with the four-colored butterflies.
Back then, he carefully memorized the hand seals, but no matter how many times he tried them during these 10 days, he felt nothing.
At this moment, Wang Lin stood up and looked ahead. He slowly said, “Big Head, you and Lei Ji go find an abandoned planet. Hide yourselves and wait for me. If I’m fine, I’ll let you two come. If you hear no news from me, then the two of you quickly leave this place.”
With that, Wang Lin’s body flickered and he left Lei Ji’s back. He moved forward with his white robe and his flowing, black hair, which made him look very much like a celestial.
As he walked, Wang Lin once more stepped into planet Tian Yun’s sphere of influence.
“This trip… Is a blessing and disaster; however, there are some things that must be done! Besides, this crisis might not be as difficult to resolve as I thought! In truth, all of it had to do with the celestial cave token!”
Wang Lin slowly moved forward as he pondered.
“All of them want that celestial cave token. The token, the matter with Blood God, the All-Seer’s scheme, and various other things forced me to leave.
“Back then, my cultivation was too weak and I had no power to resist; I stood no chance against the All-Seer… Even though I still can’t stand up to the All-Seer, it will not be so easy for him to kill me!” Wang Lin touched the spot between his eyebrows. His real ace was not his magical treasure or spells, but the third eye between his eyebrows!
“After viewing the second Battle Scroll, I gained another sliver of source origin energy… This is my real life-saving spell!
“After all, the All-Seer and I haven’t publicly turned against each other. I’m still a disciple of the All-Seer. In addition, what’s more important is that Huanglong said I’m a person of planet Suzaku. A disciple of the Vermillion Bird branch of the Four Divine Sect… This is something worth pondering…” Wang Lin revealed a sneer and pressed down between his eyebrows.
The third eye immediately appeared between his eyebrows and then was replaced by the ancient god stars. Soon, a bead appeared, then all of it disappeared, leaving only a red mark that gave off trace of heat.
“If it wasn’t for the fact that Master Flamespark gave me enough origin energy to reach the mid stage of Nirvana Scryer once my domain reached a certain level and the fact that I obtained the inheritance from Lou Chen to become a 5-star royal ancient god, I wouldn’t have even noticed this extra mark on me!
“This mark contains the power of the world. When my divine sense gathers on it, I hear the faint cry of the Vermillion Bird… I didn’t have this when I went back to planet Suzaku, so based on this, it must be related to Sect Head Huanglong.”
Wang Lin’s eyes lit up. The Vermillion Bird mark on his forehead flickered and he charged forward.
Planet Tian Yun appeared in the distance in Wang Lin’s eyes. Looking at the familiar planet, he couldn’t help but sigh. He could never forgot how he came directly here after leaving planet Suzaku and was accepted as a disciple of the Purple Division.
“In a flash, hundreds of years have passed…” Wang Lin shook his head and walked forward.
“When I first came here, I was only a Soul Transformation cultivator. The second time I’m here, I can battle Nirvana Cleanser cultivators!” Wang Lin moved forward but was surprised. He immediately stopped and stared at planet Tian Yun ahead.
He saw flashes of golden light above planet Tian Tun. They were rays of sword energy that were stacked together. After taking a closer look, they were all gathered above the Heavenly Fate Sect on planet Tian Yun.
“Ling Tianhou!” Wang Lin’s expression changed when he felt Ling Tianhou’s aura among those flying swords.
After pondering for a bit, Wang Lin didn’t stop and flew forward.
Outside the Heavenly Fate Sect, countless rays of sword energy filled the sky as if there was a sword storm. There was a cultivator on every single sword, and they were all disciples of the Da Lou Sword Sect.
Before him was a fierce red Qilin. This Qilin was extremely fierce and its eyes were like lightning. Endless flames came from its body and two streams of hot air came out of its nostrils. On its back sat a skinny old man with a gloomy expression.
This old man had four illusionary swords behind him. They gave off a powerful aura as they flickered. He was Ling Tianhou!
Aside from this old man, there were four more cultivators that seemed to be very powerful. Of the four of them, three were men and one was a woman. The three men were all old men with white hair, and their eyes were like the sun and moon.
One of them was wearing a black and white robe with a yin and yang pattern. His expression revealed nothing as he calmly sat on a giant gourd. Behind him were nine people. These nine people were clearly his disciples, as they floated respectfully behind him.
The other old man was very large, as if he was a meat mountain. He sat on a purple bamboo chair being carried by four big, shining fellows.
The third old man was wearing a yellow robe and was as skinny as a corpse, but his body gave off a powerful sense of vitality. He had no followers and he stood alone in the sky with an indifferent expression.
The final person was a woman. She was younger, middle-aged. This middle-aged woman didn’t dress up. Her clothes were very ordinary, as if she was just a woman from a village among mortals.
However, she gave off an earthly aura from her body. Behind her were four women. They were all very beautiful and their beauty could be considered unsurpassed! This was especially true of the woman in the left, who was wearing a pink dress and was stunning! They attracted the gazes of a majority of the Da Lou Sword Sect cultivators, but the four women paid them no attention and calmly looked ahead.
Ling Tianhou said, “All-Seer, back then your disciple Wang Lin took the token, and afterward you said that a mystery of the heavens will be revealed today. This old man wants to see what your so-called mystery of the heavens is!”
Back then, these old monsters all sent Greed to find Wang Lin. However, no more news of this matter came back, and a majority of the seals they left on Greed had disappeared.
The matter at the Demon Spirit Land was very crucial, so the old monsters had come looking for the All-Seer because they were anxious. After all, Wang Lin was someone from the Heavenly Fate Sect.
Back then, the All-Seer had a calm expression and only said one sentence!
“When green and purple light fills the sky, you all can come to my Heavenly Fate Sect and see the mystery of the heavens!”
Early this morning, the originally clear sky above planet Tian Yun was suddenly shrouded by green and purple. The colors were gorgeous and seemed to color the entire planet.
Then Ling Tianhou immediately came here with his disciples. At the same time, several old monsters who knew of this matter rushed over to the Heavenly Fate Sect.
After all, the All-Seer’s divination ability was famous in the Alliance!
The All-Seer, who was wearing white, calmly stood in the sky. Beside him were the Heavenly Fate disciples that all looked into the sky with cold gazes. However, what they looked at even more were the four beautiful women.
“He is here!” The All-Seer’s expression was calm and he calmly smiled. His gaze fell on the horizon.
After the All-Seer finished speaking, Ling Tianhou, the three powerful old monsters, and the beautiful woman immediately noticed something.
At this instant, all the cultivators’ gazes gathered on the horizon. The four women behind the middle-aged woman didn’t even blink and stared intently.
“I don’t know what Wang Lin, the one that shook the Demon Spirit Land and caught the attention of all the great cultivators of Allheaven, looks like…” The eyes of woman in the pink dress were filled with curiosity.
Chapter 957 – Arrival
Not only her, but the other three beautiful women also looked into the sky with their pretty eyes. Wang Lin’s fame had almost became a taboo over the years!
However, the more it was a taboo, the more rumors about Wang Lin spread.
Above the Heavenly Fate Sect’s square, Bai Wei looked up at the sky with a complex feeling. He found it difficult to imagine what that person from back then had become.
There was a gloomy middle-aged man beside Bai Wei. He wore a purple robe and his gaze was like lightning. He looked at the sky and let out a cold snort in his heart.
“Wang Lin… Even though you didn’t die during these years, you couldn’t have ascended too much. I just don’t know how much weaker you are compared to me, Zhao Xingsha!”
Bai Wei cautiously looked at the middle-aged man and felt dread toward this senior brother. Zhao Xingsha’s cultivation had advanced a lot during his closed door cultivation. He had broken through Ascendant and was only one step away from Illusory Yin!
“Zhao Xingsha became one of the seven true disciples of the All-Seer 30 years ago. He had a feud with Wang Lin, so when they meet, it will be difficult for him to not have killing intent.”
There was also a woman beside the two of them. Her expression was down. Although she was looking at the sky, it was as if she had no interest in anything.
This woman was the fourth disciple of the Purple Division, Wang Lin’s fourth senior apprentice sister. Back then, she was forced by Zhang Xingsha to trap Wang Lin with a spell.
Later, Wang Lin escaped and she taught Wang Lin greater teleportation to resolve their enmity.
In the distance, there was a youth who looked about 30 years old. He wore a blue shirt with three blue dragons embroidered on it. These three dragons were extremely fierce and lifelike, especially their eyes, which gave off fierce gazes and were breathtaking to look at.
If Wang Lin saw this person, he wouldn’t find him unfamiliar. He was the person that worked with Wang Lin’s fourth senior apprentice sister to trap him. The Blue Division’s Sima Rufeng!
Inside the Heavenly Fate Sect, everyone who knew Wang Lin all had their own thoughts. However, no one believed he would be able to leave alive if he were to appear here today.
As everyone’s gazes gathered on the horizon, a white figure appeared in the horizon and slowly walked over.
His black hair flowed in the wind, and under the flashes of sunlight, there was a hint of purple in it. His white robe gave him the air of a celestial, and it looked like white snow was arriving.
A feeling of a thousand years of lonely twilight appeared from his figure. He just slowly approached like this, and behind him was the fiery red sun. This made his face dark; only his bright eyes that revealed a thousand years of wisdom could be seen.
This scene was very beautiful.
At first the figure was very far away, but in just an instant, it was outside the Heavenly Fate Sect!
“Wang Lin!
“Wang Lin!!”
In an instant, several people recognized Wang Lin!
“So he is Wang Lin…” The woman in pink’s beautiful eyes landed on the figure in white.
Ling Tinghou’s eyes were like lightning and contained a powerful sword energy. The moment he saw Wang Lin, he frowned. Although his expression was still gloomy, there was a trace of shock in his eyes!
“Early stage Nirvana Scryer! This Wang Lin was only at the Soul Transformation stage, and in just a few hundred years, he has unexpectedly reached such heights!! Unless he encountered great fortunes, it would be impossible for this to happen! There is also that mark between his eyebrows…” The shock set off a huge wave in Ling Tianhou’s heart.
The old man that was like a meat mountain suddenly opened his eyes. His eyes shined brightly as he stared at Wang Lin with disbelief.
The expression of the old man as skinny as a corpse also changed, and he gave Wang Lin a profound look. He then looked at the All-Seer and revealed an expression that made it seem like he had realized something.
As for the old man wearing the black and white robe sitting on the gourd, he unexpectedly revealed a smile. However, there was a flash of a ghostly light in his eyes, so it was impossible to see what he was thinking.
“The Vermillion Bird mark!” The middle-aged woman was surprised and carefully looked at Wang Lin.
If these old monsters were like this, then there no need to mention the surrounding cultivators. Not many of them could see through Wang Lin’s cultivation, but they could all feel a pressure coming from Wang Lin’s body.
The woman in pink looked at Wang Lin with her beautiful eyes and revealed a hint of interest.
All of this sounds slow, but it all happened the moment Wang Lin appeared, and the expressions of everyone landed in his eyes. He patted his clothes as he calmly looked at the All-Seer, then he clasped his hands and respectfully said, “Disciple Wang Lin greets Master!”
The All-Seer’s eyes revealed a strange light as he stared at the mark between Wang Lin’s eyebrows. After a long time, he revealed a smile and kindly said, “It’s good that you returned. Wang Lin, these seniors want to ask you something, and you must answer truthfully.”
A middle-aged man behind Wang Lin pointed at him and shouted, “Little brat Wang Lin, you actually dared to come back!!”
“Back then, you killed members of my Da Lou Sword Sect in the Demon Spirit Land. Today is when you pay in blood!”
Wang Lin revealed a smile, but his eyes were as cold as ice. He coldly looked at the middle-aged man and calmly said, “Senior Ling Tianhou, does this disciple of yours have the qualifications to speak to me like this?”
Ling Tianhou’s expression was extremely gloomy as he stared at the mark between Wang Lin’s eyebrows. Although he feared the Vermillion Bird mark somewhat, what really shocked him were the other two powers between Wang Lin’s eyebrows.
“What kind of fortune did this Wang Lin encounter in these hundreds of years? It’s as if he was reborn!”
While he pondered, Ling Tianhou waved his sleeves, causing the middle-aged man who was shouting at Wang Lin to tremble and get pushed back into the group of cultivators.
Ling Tianhou’s voice was chilly as he slowly said, “He indeed doesn’t have the qualifications to speak to you like this! To be able to reach the early stage of Nirvana Scryer at your age, if we let go of our enmity, even this old man admires you!”
His words set off a huge wave. It was no different from throwing water into boiling oil. This caused the expressions of all the surrounding cultivators to change!
Bai Wei gasped and stared at Wang Lin. His mind was blank. He couldn’t believe how Wang Lin, who was only at the Soul Transformation stage hundreds of years ago, had become a Nirvana Scryer cultivator who he could only view as a legend!
“Nirvana Scryer…”
As for Zhao Xingxia, his body trembled as he couldn’t believe what he had heard. He was startled on the spot.
It wasn’t just the two of them, almost all the other cultivators were the same.
After all, this was just too unbelievable.
“This Wang Lin has actually reached the Nirvana Scryer stage. Although there is still a gap between him and us, he is still someone who has achieved a lot and can no longer be looked at as a junior.” The old man on the gourd smiled and said, “Wang Lin, I want to ask, why did you escape through the vortex before us back then? Did you do something you didn’t want us to know about?”
Wang Lin’s expression was neutral as he calmly said, “Junior did indeed cause a calamity in the Demon Spirit Land, so I had to leave.”
The eyes of the skinny old man shined and he coldly asked, “What calamity?”
Wang Lin calmly said, “In self-defence Junior had to trap Blood Ancestor’s daughter! When fellow seniors came with Blood Ancestor, Junior naturally had to escape!”
After he spoke, the old man who had the body of a mountain of flesh sat up and said, “Is the celestial cave token in your hands?”
“I wonder who Senior heard this from!” Wang Lin looked at the old man that was like a mountain of flesh. This person was only at the early stage of Nirvana Scryer, and moreover, Wang Lin didn’t remember this person among the people that pursued him.
The old man’s mind trembled from Wang Lin’s gaze. His expression changed and there was a flash of disbelief in his eyes.
The All-Seer’s expression was still gentle as he slowly said, “Enough, Wang Lin. Teacher is asking you if the celestial cave token in your hands.”
Wang Lin looked at the All-Seer and respectfully said, “Since teacher asked, Disciple doesn’t dare to conceal it. Back in the Demon Spirit Land, Disciple indeed obtained a celestial cave token!”
After Wang Lin spoke, the old monsters’ eyes lit up and they began to silently ponder. Then an oppressive aura spread out and gathered on Wang Lin.
The old man sitting on the gourd looked at the mark between Wang Lin’s eyebrows and said, “Wang Lin, take out the token and you can keep your life!”
The old man with the mountain of flesh body revealed a hostile gaze and gloomily said, “You aren’t qualified to have that celestial cave token.”
Without waiting for Wang Lin to speak, killing intent flashed across Ling Tianhou’s eyes. He slowly said, “Since we know the token is in his hands, why waste time?”
He let out a cold snort and pointed with his right finger. A heaven-shaking ray of sword energy shot toward Wang Lin.
Wang Lin’s expression was calm. When the sword energy arrived, he retreated a few steps and threw a punch. This punch caused a sonic boom, and the rumbling was earth-shaking.
A black vortex appeared from Wang Lin’s fist and collided with Ling Tianhou’s sword energy.
Just at this instant, the All-Seer’s eyes lit up and he waved his right sleeve. A seven-colored wind flew forth and landed between Ling Tianhou and Wang Lin.
This seven-colored wind contained a mysterious power. When it blew by, it caused the black vortex from Wang Lin’s fist to dissipate. While it dissolved Wang Lin’s power, it also blocked Ling Tianhou’s sword energy.
This gently dissolved everything.
“Ling Tianhou, to attack my Heavenly Fate Sect disciple at my Heavenly Fate Sect, do you really think I’m not here?” The All-Seer’s voice was gentle as he looked at Ling Tianhou.
The four origin swords behind Ling Tianhou flew out as he stared at the All-Seer and shouted, “All-Seer, could it be that you want to take the token for yourself!?”
Chapter 958 – Recognition
The All-Seer’s expression sank and he calmly said, “As long as he hasn’t betrayed his sect, then he is still my disciple!”
“Your Heavenly Fate Sect wants to protect your disciple? Could it be that my Da Lou Sword Sect disciples died for nothing!? Chen Long was the only surviving one among the 12 Swords, the rest were all killed by Wang Lin! This old man will not bully the weak; as long as Wang Lin can resist three rays of sword energy, then this matter will be forgotten! If you dare to stop me, All-Seer, I’ll risk everything and go to war with you!” Ling Tianhou’s face was filled with killing intent. Although he was speaking to the All-Seer, his gaze was locked on to Wang Lin.
“This senior said that I don’t have the qualifications to hold the token. Dare I ask Senior how long you can last against Sword Saint Ling Tianhou’s sword energy?” Wang Lin looked at the old man that was like a mountain of flesh.
The old man with the mountain of flesh body was extremely gloomy. He let out a cold snort and remained silent, but there was a flash of killing intent in his eyes.
Wang Lin faintly smiled as his gaze fell on Ling Tianhou, and he calmly said, “Please enlighten me, Sword Saint!”
Ling Tianhou waved his right hand and one of the four origin swords behind his back flew out. This sword was flickering between light and darkness. At this moment, a ray of sword energy flew out.
The sword energy was like a rainbow!
With Ling Tianhou’s cultivation, the sword energies he left his disciples when they went into the Demon Spirit land were all very powerful, so there was no need to mention how powerful this one that came from the source was. The sword energy took the form of a dragon and whistled toward Wang Lin.
Crackling sounds came from the sky as if it couldn’t withstand the might of the sword energy.
The surrounding Da Lou Sword Sect disciples all became excited as they watched.
When the sword energy closed in and was about to tear his body apart, Wang Lin’s eyes lit up. His right hand formed a fist and he threw a punch.
There was a loud explosion as the space before Wang Lin’s fist showed signs of collapse. Just as the sword energy closed in, Wang Lin’s fist collided with it.
There were several heaven-shaking rumbles. Wang Lin retreated two steps as he calmly looked at Ling Tianhou and slowly said, “First ray!”
Ling Tianhou’s sword energy collapsed and spread like a storm. The All-Seer waved his big sleeves and all that power disappeared. He looked at Wang Lin and revealed a smile.
Coldness flashed in Ling Tianhou’s eyes and he waved his right hand without hesitation. The origin sword that flew out let out a sharp sword hymn that penetrated the heavens. Then it directly flew out at Wang Lin with its original body.
When it closed in, Wang Lin laughed and his right hand formed a fist. A surge of power travelled from between his eyebrows and gathered in his hand. Specks of light appeared around Wang Lin’s fist, and he shot forward along with the punch.
At the same time, there was a flash of coldness in Wang Lin’s eyes. Since he had returned to planet Tian Yun, he didn’t intend to be low key. After all, the only way to speak was with strength!
If he wanted to go back to the Demon Spirit Land to obtain the qualifications to hold the token and to obtain the recognition of all the old monsters on planet Tian Yun, then all of it would depend on this battle!
With Wang Lin’s cunning, he had already analyzed all of this. At this moment, after throwing the punch, his left hand touched his bag and he shouted, “Three sets of nine swords!”
After he spoke, rays of silver light flew out from his bag of holding like crazy. Every ray of light gave off a harsh silver glow and countless soul fragments came out from each ray of light. Then bursts of mournful cries filled the world.
As all 27 flying swords all flew out, Wang Lin pointed with this finger. All 27 flying swords flew toward Ling Tianhou while the souls released mournful cries!
Even the All-Seer was shocked by this. He had already foreseen the result, but he didn’t know the process. He foresaw that Wang Lin’s cultivation would have increased greatly and that he would return on the day the green and purple light covered the sky, but he didn’t know exactly what cultivation level Wang Lin would be at.
He even saw through the several powers between Wang Lin’s eyebrows. Three of them were things even he dreaded!
“Although I calculated that this child would come back, I couldn’t calculate the reason. This child dared to return to planet Tian Yun because he must have something to rely on. The Vermillion Bird Mark is one of his backings!”
The beautiful woman was also shocked. Surprise filled her eyes and she immediately saw how extraordinary those 27 swords were.
She was a master refiner, and she thought, “The material of these 27 swords are all extraordinary, and they also contain powerful killing intent. It is obvious they have been refined in a place with monstrous killing intent for countless years. Any one of those swords would be a peerless weapon! Now that the 27 swords have formed a sword array, their power…” The beautiful middle-aged woman gasped.
The old man sitting on the gourd suddenly stood up. He stared at Wang Lin, and a huge wave was set off in his heart!
“He definitely isn’t at the early stage of Nirvana Scryer!”
As for the old man that was like a mountain of flesh, his mind trembled. He stared at the 27 swords and the indifferent Wang Lin. Cold sweat came out from his forehead.
“I underestimated him!”
Ling Tianhou was named “Sword Saint,” and he had great accomplishments and insight related to swords. When he saw these 27 swords, his eyes shined.
“Such flying swords, such a sword formation. Wang Lin, you are qualified to have a fight with me!” Ling Tianhou waved his hands and the three remaining origin swords behind him flew out. As the four swords rotated, rays of sword energy shot out, forming a net of sword energy.
The 27 flying swords caught up to the impact of his punch under Wang Lin’s control. They fused together and formed a storm with the swords at the core. There was also sword intent contained within, and they collided with the four rotating origin swords that belonged to Ling Tianhou.
Rumble, rumble, rumble!
As the rumbles continued, the 27 swords were all pushed one by one. However, the bombardment caused Ling Tianhou’s origin swords to retreat!
Every time a flying sword was knocked back, it would return back to Wang Lin. A moment later, all 27 swords circled Wang Lin. At this moment, the power of Wang Lin’s ancient god punch exploded.
Under the power of the punch, Ling Tianhou’s four origin swords were all knocked back!
This scene was shocking to anyone who saw it!
However, Wang Lin knew that Ling Tianhous hadn’t used any spells and had purely attacked with sword energy. This wasn’t Ling Tianhou showing mercy, but even if Wang Lin was at the early stage of Nirvana Cleanser, he wouldn’t enough of a threat for Ling Tianhou to use spells!
Ling Tianhou’s eyes revealed a strange light, but it soon disappeared. He laughed and had already forgotten about the promise of only three attacks. His hands formed a seal and he waved them, then his hair moved without wind, his eyes lit up, and he shouted, “You are qualified for this old man to use spells. This old man only knows three spells! Sacrifice, Hole, Break! Sacrifice sword, first phase, cast the sword with blood!”
After he spoke, the surrounding cultivators were all shocked. Ling Tianhou’s name was illustrious, and he was a master with spells that could shake the heavens. Every cultivator knew that Ling Tianhou only had one mortal enemy, and that was the All-Seer!
He seldom used his spells, and almost every single time he had used them, he was in a battle with the All-Seer.
However, Ling Tianhou had unexpectedly used a spell in his battle against Wang Lin. As a result, even if Wang Lin lost, he would immediately become famous.
As Ling Tianhou shouted, he pointed forward and the four origin swords fused into one. They became an ethereal sword that gave off bursts of hot energy. Then it turned, looking as if it was becoming liquid, and became colorful under the shining sun. Then it shot straight at Wang Lin.
Wang Lin’s expression was calm. He retreated a few steps, slapped his bag of holding, and shouted, “Five set of nine swords formation!
In an instant, rays of silver light flew out from his bag and flew together with the 27 swords. A total of 45 swords rotated like crazy, forming a vortex. Wang Lin’s hair flowed in the air as his hand closed and he mercilessly pointed forward!
“Heavenly Chop!”
With this point of his finger, the rate at which his origin energy cycled almost reached his peak. Countless Heavenly Chops flew out and merged with the vortex before him. The entire vortex trembled and then it condensed and shot forward.
Wang Lin had already refined 45 of these swords from the Slaughter Realm and changed their appearances. The only ones who could identify them now were people from the Slaughter Realm.
At this moment, this sword vortex that contained the power of countless Heavenly Chops collided with Ling Tianhou’s spell. At this moment, the world changed colors and reversed.
An intense rumble echoed across the world. The sounds of constant collapsing had replaced all sounds in the world.
If it wasn’t for the All-Seer blocking the shockwave of this impact, then it was likely a large part of planet Tian Yun would’ve collapsed. After the impact, Wang Lin’s body was pushed back. His 45 swords were not damaged, but they were bleak as they circled Wang Lin.
Facing him, the sword formed by Ling Tianhou collapsed and turned back into four origin swords. Ling Tianhou wasn’t pushed back, though his eyes lit up and he laughed. “Wang Lin, the grudge between you and the Da Lou Sword Sect is all gone. This old man won’t take the token away from you. Since you were the one who obtained it, then you have a position to enter the celestial cave!”
Ling Tianhou turned around and stepped out. The Da Lou Sword Sect disciples were all still confused, but they immediately followed. Rays of sword energy quickly went off into the distance.
“Ling Tianhou’s actions were very profound…” Wang Lin looked at Ling Tianhou’s figure and pondered.
The surroundings were completely silent. Whether it was the Heavenly Fate Sect disciples or the disciples brought by the old monsters, shock filled their eyes.
“Who would’ve thought Wang Lin would have the power to battle Ling Tianhou!?” Excitement filled Bai Wei’s eyes. Even now he still didn’t believe what he had witnessed.
Zhao Xingxia’s face was deathly pale and his gaze toward Wang Lin was filled with fear. He no longer dared to have any evil intent.
There was still the fourth sister, who had been downcast the entire time. The confusion in her eyes disappeared and she looked at Wang Lin with a mysterious gaze.
“If he can help me…” The woman bit her lower lip and made a decision.
Not only them, almost everyone who knew Wang Lin was shocked into a trance. In their eyes, Wang Lin’s figure from back then gradually fused with the white-robed figure they were looking at now.
Wang Lin didn’t put away the 45 flying swords, his gaze swept by before landing on the old man with the mountain of flesh body, and he calmly said, “Senior, am I qualified?”
The old man silently pondered before letting out a cold snort and saying to the All-Seer, “Fellow Cultivator All-Seer, I still have a batch of pills to refine, so I won’t disturb you anymore.”
With that, he shouted at the four disciples carrying him, “Return to the sect!”
The four disciples quickly nodded, then they lifted his huge body and disappeared into the distance.
The old man standing on the gourd looked profoundly at Wang Lin and laughed. “Fellow Cultivator Wang hid himself quiet well. This old man is called Strange Dream Tan. If you have time, you’re welcome to my Planet Dream.” With that, he clasped his hands at Wang Lin and left.
The person that left with him was the skinny old man. From the beginning, he had an indifferent expression. Even when he left, he didn’t say farewell to the All-Seer, he just left.
The last one to leave was the beautiful middle-aged woman. She looked at Wang Lin and smiled, “Fellow Cultivator Wang’s flying swords are filled with killing intent. However, too much killing intent can be hard to control. If you have time, please come to planet Zi Xia.” With that, she bowed toward the All-Seer and left with the four women behind her.
When they were leaving, the eyes of the woman in the pink dress shined. She looked at Wang Lin and smiled. “My teacher is good at refining, but the cost will not be expensive.”
“You little girl!” The beautiful woman chuckled and the three other woman also laughed. Only a few people noticed that the gaze the woman in the green dress had toward Wang Lin was very different.
“He perhaps has already forgotten about my name… After all, for him, it was a very small matter, but for me, he saved my life…” The woman sighed.
The woman in the pink dress asked, “Senior Sister Qian Qin,[1] what’s wrong?”
Qian Qin shook her head but didn’t speak.
Under the All-Seer’s order, the members of the Heavenly Fate Sect all scattered. In the square, there was no one else other than Wang Lin and the All-Seer. After everyone left, Wang Lin looked calmly at the All-Seer.
The master and disciple once again faced each other after hundreds of years.
The two of them pondered for a long time and the All-Seer slowly asked, “What do you plan to do?”
“Disciple wants to enter the Demon Spirit Land.” Wang Lin’s expression was respectful.
The All-Seer had his hand behind his back as he calmly said, “You have the qualifications. Whether it is as the Allheaven’s Thunder Celestial or as one of the Four Divine Sect’s Vermillion Bird Series. As far as I know, this generation of Vermillion Bird Series only has three people including you!”
Wang Lin silently pondered. He didn’t know much about the Vermillion Bird Series. After hearing this now, although he was moved, his expression revealed nothing.
Chapter 959 – All-Seer’s Secret
“It will Make some preparations to open up the Demon Spirit Land this time. This matter is important, and I also need to invite some friends before we can enter that cave. During this time, you can wait here at ease.” The All-Seer’s expression was calm, not revealing any anger or joy as he spoke. After he finished speaking, clouds appeared and he left by stepping on the clouds.
“The Purple Wood Pavilion was still kept for you.” The All-Seer’s voice came from the distance.
Wang Lin looked at where the All-Seer disappeared and pondered.
“Ling Tianhou’s actions had profound meaning behind them! Even on the final spell he used, he didn’t use his full power…” Wang Lin wasn’t able to guess all of Ling Tianhou’s thoughts, but he was able to get a rough idea.
“As for All-Seer… I can’t see through him…” When it came to the All-Seer Wang Lin, had always been confused about the All-Seer’s inner thoughts. Even if he found a trace of a clue, in the blink of an eye, there would be another interpretation that make it all a mystery again.
“I can’t see through him.” Wang Lin let out a sigh. There was also a layer of mist shrouding the All-Seer. He had a feeling that every time he saw the All-Seer, he was a bit different.
In truth, Wang Lin had speculated that the All-Seer would prepare for his arrival like this. However, when it came to facing it, even though the All-Seer had done as Wang Lin expected, he felt like there was something wrong.
Everything was a too bit smooth, as if everything happened according to Wang Lin’s plan.
Wang Lin looked around the familiar Heavenly Fate Sect while frowning. After pondering for a bit, he walked down toward the Purple Wood Pavilion. There was only one road leading there. The path had stone towers on both sides and was filled with lush greenery.
At this moment, it was sunset. As the wind blew, it brought about a coolness along with the rustling of leaves. Even the sound of water came from the distance.
Wang Lin had walked down this road before. Now that he stepped onto this road again hundreds of years later, he felt regretful.
“It’s as if nothing has changed…” Wang Lin walked forward at a leisurely pace.
As he walked, a woman and man blue wearing blue robes walked close to him while talking. Their cultivation levels weren’t high, only Soul Transformation.
Along with the wind, the words spoken by the two of them slowly blew by.
“Junior Sister, I heard that in seven days, the Ghost Eye Market will open up a gain. I heard that several cultivators have rushed over.”
“Ghost Eye Market? The one that auctioned a celestial spell and instantly became famous?” The woman’s voice was filled with surprise.
“That’s right, it is that Ghost Eye Market. That celestial spell caused a huge uproar. Rumor has it that some powerful old monsters even took a trip there. Celestial spell! With our status, we can only get incomplete celestial spells, and they are still low grade celestial spells. Rumor has it that that celestial spell was a rare complete spell! This time, the rumors say that the Ghost Eye Market will have a mysterious item for auction.”
“Ah, what does any of this have to do with us? The prices of everything in the Ghost Eye Market are unimaginable. Furthermore, one requires an invitation to enter.”
“It doesn’t matter. Although we don’t have the right to enter the auction house, we have access to the tree trade area in the Ghost Eye Market.” As the man in blue spoke, he took out a jade from his bag. This jade was completely black, aside form the center, which had an eye. This eye gave off burst of red light and was very strange.
“Ghost Eye invitation jade!” The woman’s eyes lit up.
The man in blue was proud and he was about to speak when he looked ahead. What he saw caused him to become startled. He saw Wang Lin walking down from the mountain.
When the woman noticed the abnormality of her senior brother, she raised her head and also noticed Wang Lin.
With their cultivation level, they weren’t even remotely aware of Wang Lin’s existence.
Wang Lin’s expression was gentle. When he got near the man and woman, he smiled at the man in blue and said, “Senior Brother Li, don’t be a stranger.”
“You… You…” The man in blue was like a foolish chicken. He had just returned to the sect, so he didn’t know Wang Lin had returned. When he saw Wang Lin earlier, he thought Wang Lin looked familiar, so he was startled. However, after hearing Wang Lin’s words, he was even more shocked.
“Wang Lin!!” The man in blue retreated a few steps and aghast filled his eyes.
Wang Lin smiled. He didn’t know this person’s full name and only knew he was named Li. They had briefly met once, and he remembered that this man looked at him with mockery and disdain.
Looking at this person today, this person’s cultivation level had increased from early stage Soul Transformation to mid stage Soul Transformation.
No longer looking at the man named Li, Wang Lin walked past them and gradually left.
“Senior Brother, he is called Wang Lin? This name seems familiar…” The woman looked at Wang Lin’s back with a puzzled look.
“Wang Lin has actually returned! If I ran into him here, Master has to know about it. Could it be that he has obtained Master’s forgiveness? Just now, I didn’t feel any spiritual energy from him at all, as if he was a mortal. However, the moment he passed, I was so shocked that all the spiritual energy in my body trembled until it almost collapsed.” The man in blue’s expression was pale. He pulled his junior sister and quickly left.
“Senior Brother, what’s with you?” The woman was puzzled.
The man in blue quickly said, “His name is Wang Lin. He was the Heavenly Fate Sect’s Purple Division’s seventh disciple. Junior Sister, do you still not remember!?”
The woman was startled and her expression immediately changed.
“Is it that one that was rumored to have killed countless people in the Demon Spirit Land and created a river of blood? Who in the the end was eventually hunted by Master and seven seniors but was still able to escape? The devil Wang Lin?!”
In the distance, Wang Lin wryly smiled. Gossip was a fearful thing. The rumors about him had gradually changed over the hundreds of years. Letting out a sigh, Wang Lin walked out of the Heavenly Fate Sect through the small path.
In front of him was a mountain that pierced into the sky. The peak was covered in mist and there were purple lights inside this mist. This was where the Purple Division disciples stayed.
Heavenly Fate Sect, Mount Purple.
Looking at the familiar peak, Wang Lin entered a trance. It was as if he had gone back into the past and saw a youth walking step by step up the mountain and step by step gained a firm footing here.
While pondering, the wind of the mountain blew by, and it was cold. Although not freezing, it still took away warmth and left you with only coldness.
There were various plants swaying on the mountain. It was unknown if it was the mountain moving or his heart.
Wang Lin walked up the mountain as if he was walking into heaven. Wang Lin slowed down as he walked up the mountain. Along the way, he met no cultivators. The only sound he heard was the wind that sounded like sobbing.
Aside from the sound of wind, there was no other sound. The mountain was still the same as before, with a delicate pavilion in the corner. From a distance, you could vaguely see a vertical plaque with one word on it.
Purple!
As Wang Lin moved forward, that corner of the pavilion concealed itself once more. Only after walking past an obstacle did the pavilion from before appear.
Purple Wood Pavilion!
“Who still remembers that this place was called the Purple Cloud Pavilion…” Wang Lin stood silently for a while before he pushed open the door. The smell of mold blew out from the pavilion.
The furnishing in the room was the same as before, there was nothing different. If there was any change, it was that there was dust everywhere. Whether it was the table, wooden chair, or the bed, it was all covered in dust.
The oil lamp on the table had long since ran out of oil.
Wang Lin raised his finger and gently rubbed the table. He quickly created a deep mark on the table. Looking at the dust on the table, Wang Lin waved his hand.
A gentle wind swept by. This wind swept before Wang Lin and blew past the dust on the table. Then it went past the wood chairs, the bed, upstairs, and downstairs. It was as if a storm had gone through the pavilion.
However, what was strange was that the storm only swept the dust and nothing else was moved. Not even the purple window emitted a single sound that signalled it was blown by the wind.
After several breaths of time, Wang Lin raised his palm and closed his hand.
At this instant, the storm seemed to reverse in time and gathered in Wang Lin’s hand from all directions. In an instant, the storm in the pavilion disappeared.
A dark grey vortex appeared in Wang Lin’s palm. This was all the dust in the pavilion.
He casually waved his right and all the windows in the pavilion opened. The grey vortex drifted out from the window; it was as if hundreds of years of time and all the memories of the past were deposited away. Everything in the room now looked new. The sky darkened as the sun set.
The room was completely dark, which made Wang Lin’s figure look a bit blurry. He let out a sigh and walked to a purple wood cabinet. He remember that the oil was placed here. He opened the cabinet and sure enough found a small bottle containing brown lamp oil.
After adding oil to the oil lamp, Wang Lin turned on the lamp. There was a sound when the flame was lit, and the darkness in the room was dispelled.
However, the moment the flame lit up, a gust of wind came from the mountain. This caused the flame that had just lit up to flicker and sway, and Wang Lin’s shadow became distorted.
“Eh?” Wang Lin’s expression changed as he stared at the flickering flame. A thought flash through his mind and his eyes shined brightly!
“The wind blew and the flame changed. Its change is unpredictable in the wind, making it impossible to tell what its original shape was… I understand! The All-Seer is like this lamp. The reason I feel like he is a different person each time is because he is always changing. Just like how a person has thousands of avatars and all of them are in the same body. They are alternating at every moment… This is why the All-Seer gives me such an unpredictable feeling!”
Wang Lin looked at the flickering lighting and his expression was light and dark. However, enlightenment filled his eyes.
Chapter 960 – First Glimpse of Source Origin
“The flame moved with the wind just like how the wind makes the plants move, which makes it look like the mountain is moving, but in reality…” Wang Lin pondered.
“In reality, the mountain didn’t move, the flame didn’t move, what moved was the wind!” Wang Lin waved his right hand and all the windows snapped shut.
After blocking the wind from outside, no more blew into the room.
Without wind, the flame calmed down from its violent flicker. However, it still gently swayed from the consumption of oil.
Wang Lin frowned as he stared at the flame. Before the flame’s light, his face was bright and dark, revealing a faint of gloominess.
“Something’s wrong! The wind has already stopped, but this flame is still moving…”
At this moment, although Wang Lin didn’t know it, his state was very similar to dao confirmation, but instead of confirming his own dao, he was confirming the All-Seer’s dao.
He had been acquainted with the All-Seer for hundreds of years. Back then, with Wang Lin’s low cultivation level, he couldn’t see through the changes on the All-Seer’s body. However, now he was vaguely able to see some clues.
There were too many secrets surrounding the All-Seer. What made Wang Lin dread him the most was that he was unable to guess what was going through the other party’s mind at all.
“The All-Seer is like the flame that is ever-changing… Even when I isolate the wind, it is impossible to find its original appearance.” Wang Lin frowned, and his gaze was still locked onto the flame.
Time slowly passed. Unknowingly, it was already 3 AM. The sky outside was completely dark, and as the wind blew on the window, it caused the paper to rustle.
This sound was very clear in this quiet night.
“The wind moves, the mountain moves, the flame moves…” Wang Lin raised his head and took a step. He disappeared from the room and reappeared in the night sky.
Below him was the Heavenly Fate Sect’s Mount Purple!
The wind was strong this night, and clouds filled the sky. Not much moonlight fell on the earth through the clouds, which made everything before him very dark.
While he pondered, Wang Lin raised his right hand and gently waved it. There was a trace law that appeared during Wang Lin’s comprehension of Summon the Rain
The wind surged in the sky covered by the dark clouds. The clouds that seemed to contain rain all dissipated and then bright moonlight fell on the earth without any obstacles.
Under the moonlight, a shadow appeared under Mount Purple.
The wind blew by, causing the plants on the mountain to move, and the sounds of them rustling could be heard.
Looking at the mountain and the large shadow, although the plants on the mountain were moving, the shadow barely changed.
“This mountain is not moving!” Wang Lin’s eyes shined brightly. It was as if something had gone off in his head, and enlightenment filled his eyes. He seemed to have grasped a trace of a clue.
“The wind only blew the surface, yet the mountain seemed to move, but in reality, it was my heart that moved! My heart moved, so the mountain moved!” Clarity filled Wang Lin’s eyes and then he returned to the room.
Looking at the flame, Wang Lin’s breathing gradually subsided until it seemed like he was dead.
If an outsider was here and they saw this, they wouldn’t feel the slightest change. The flame would still be slightly shaking and crackling.
However, at this moment, this flame was like a violent wave that shook in various ways. It gradually slowed down until it became motionless, as if the Stop spell was used.
At this instant, Wang Lin’s mind trembled. He was filled with disbelief, as if he found that what he saw was completely unbelievable.
The origin energy flowed to every part of his body without his control, and sounds of something bursting came from his body.
It was as if a mortal martial artist had opened all their meridians.
As his origin energy cycled like crazy, Wang Lin’s third eye silently opened and a gap opened. However, no red light came out. Instead, it was as if it was absorbing something. This caused the origin energy inside Wang Lin’s body to cycle even faster!
This speed had already reached an unimaginable speed, but Wang Lin felt no pain. The current him seemed to be startled as he stared at the flame. The belief in his eyes reached a peak.
He couldn’t believe what he was seeing. What he saw was no longer the candle flame but a very weak flame. This flame was what Wang Lin had created before.
If this was all, it wouldn’t have shocked Wang Lin so much. However, although the flame looked like it stopped, it was still moving!
This kind of movement was a kind of reversal. It was as if there was a force surrounding the flame that was making it rapidly dissipate in a way Wang Lin didn’t understand.
It might be inaccurate to say it was dissipating. It was as if the flame was becoming large and larger. In the end, Wang Lin saw the secret within the flame after it had been magnified countless times!
These were small elements. These elements would move past each other and collide in a specific way. Each time they collided, they would release a trace of heat.
At a glance, these elements were a mess, but it was different from Wang Lin’s point of view. Whether it was how they moved or collided, they all contained some kind of law.
“This is law… The law of fire…” From beginning to end, Wang Lin didn’t blink. He stared at the flame and muttered,
“Could it… Go deeper…” Just as Wang Lin thought of this, the countless elements suddenly magnified. Just like that flame, they instantly grew very large at a violent speed!
As the elements continued to be magnified, traces of illusionary lines surrounded it. However, at this moment, the origin energy in his body rumbled. He felt a sharp pain between his eyebrows and he awakened.
Cold sweat poured out form his forehead and his entire outfit was soaked. The current Wang Lin was completely pale, and he took a deep breath. He looked at the candle and muttered, “What is that… Could it have been source origin…”
“I could grasp that law, but I only saw the source origin for an instant, and my body couldn’t withstand it.” Wang Lin pondered for a while before he closed his eyes and cultivated.
Time slowly passesd. The darkness outside the window disappeared and was replaced with light. Just as dawn arrived, Wang Lin opened his eyes from cultivation. Than a gaze that could pierce anything landed on the door.
“Seventh Brother… May I come in…” A soft voice came from outside the pavilion.
Chapter 961 – Wang Lin’s Embarrassment
Wang Lin calmly said, “Fourth Sister please enter.”
The breathing outside the pavilion was heavy, and after a long time, the door was pushed open. A beautiful woman in purple walked in biting her lower lip.
Although this woman’s appearance was not as stunning as Li Mei, she was still beautiful. However, there were traces of the passage of time on her face, making her feel a bit aged.
After she entered the room, she silently sat in a chair. She didn’t look at Wang Lin; her empty eyes silently looked at the empty space before her.
The room was completely silent as Wang Lin closed his eyes and continued to cultivate. However, he soon felt a faint divine sense that stretched out from between the woman’s eyebrows.
As his divine sense spread out, it spread toward Wang Lin. It wasn’t fast, it eased its way over like it was very hesitant.
As the divine sense approached, Wang Lin’s eyes opened and a ray of light shined out of them. The divine sense trembled and wanted to retreat, but it was instantly frozen in the air.
The face of the woman in purple was deathly pale. She could feel that if her divine sense moved at all, Wang Lin would instantly devour it.
Wang Lin stared at the woman in purple and loosened his lock on her divine sense, allowing her divine sense to return to her body. She couldn’t hide anything before Wang Lin. There were six seals on her body, sealing her cultivation. What she revealed to the outside was only late stage Soul Transformation.
If it was the Wang Lin back then, he wouldn’t be able see through this. However, now he only needed one gaze to completely see through the woman in purple.
Wang Lin frowned slightly and said,
“What does Fourth Sister want?”
The woman in purple opened her mouth as if she wanted to say something, but in the end she remained silent.
“Since Fourth Sister doesn’t have anything, then I won’t be sending you off.” With that, Wang Lin waved his sleeve. A gentle breeze appeared, causing the woman’s body to tremble and step rapidly toward the door. Just as she arrived at the door, her eyes revealed a decisive gaze and she whispered, “Wang Lin, now that you have reached the second step, aren’t you afraid of the crisis that might befall you in the Heavenly Fate Sect?”
Wang Lin’s eyes lit up and his right hand reached out. He pulled the woman in purple back in and calmly said, “What does Senior Sister mean?”
The woman in purple clenched teeth as she looked up at Wang Lin and softly said, “If you hadn’t fled back then, it’s likely you would have gone inexplicably missing over the past few hundred years!
“I presume you already noticed that within the Heavenly Fate Sect, none of the thousands of inner and outer disciples and even us direct disciples, no one’s cultivation has reached the Illusionary Yin stage!”
Wang Lin’s expression was calm as he silently looked at the woman in purple.
“When someone breaks through the late stage of Ascendant and reaches the Illusionary Yin stage, that person will mysteriously disappear within a year. This matter is taboo within the Heavenly Fate Sect. Back then, your cultivation level wasn’t high enough to know this, and you presumably still don’t know.”
Wang Lin’s expression still didn’t change at all.
The woman in purple looked at Wang Lin. After she finished speaking, she found that Wang Lin’s expression still hadn’t changed. Her heart couldn’t help but sink, and she clenched her teeth. “I know you may not believe me, but I, Zhao Xinmeng, joined the sect at the age of seven and cultivated for a thousand years…”
Without waiting for Zhao Xinmeng, Wang Lin shook his head and said, “Are you not afraid of Teacher finding out that you’re speaking about this here?”
“Every day at 5 AM, Master goes into close door cultivation. Unless something major has occurred, he won’t come out. Master has had this habit for thousands of years.” Zhao Xinmeng seemed a bit hasty.
“Wang Lin, everything I say is true!”
Wang Lin pondered a bit and looked at Zhao Xinmeng. Then he said, “This is why you have six seals inside your body?”
Zhao Xinmeng wasn’t shocked by Wang Lin seeing through her. She revealed a trace of bitterness. “What else can I do beside this? A piece of my soul is in Master’s hands, so I simply can’t leave. Even if I were to leave, Master would only need but a thought for me to be completely destroyed.
“There are many people who seal their cultivation like me. Among them, the Red Division’s Sun Hong has the highest cultivation level. She has 11 seals on her body, forcing herself to stay at the mid stage of Ascendant. She even interfered with her own comprehension so that it won’t match her real cultivation level. If she were to release the seals, she could quickly reach the early stage of Nirvana Scryer.
“There is also the Red Division’s Lu Hai. If he released his seal, his cultivation level would immediately become peak Corporeal Yang.
“These are only people I know, but I believe there are those that have hidden themselves very well among the seven divisions! However, no matter how much our cultivation advances, we don’t dare to open the seals. Even if we reseal our cultivation after it has been open, we will mysteriously disappear within a year. If we were seriously injured and our cultivation level fell, those who didn’t hide their cultivation would be fine, but those of us who hid our cultivation level would still disappear.
“From my understanding, Master has been cultivating for tens of thousands of years and has had countless disciples. However, none of them have ever appeared or even been heard of…”
Wang Lin’s expression was neutral as he looked at Zhao Xinmeng. The six seals on this woman were very strange. If they were not face to face like this, they would’ve been easy to miss. However, Wang Lin believed that before the All-Seer, this kind of method was useless!
“Master didn’t stop us from sealing our cultivation, he just ignored us…” Fear filled Zhao Xinmeng’s face. This was something she didn’t understand, and neither did all the disciples who hid their cultivation levels.
“No matter how much we hide, Master won’t acknowledge it, as if he really doesn’t know… However, if the seals open, we will be doomed. 500 years ago, there was a disciple of the Orange Division whose seal had reached its limit. His seals were opened by force, and he disappeared the next day…
“It’s impossible to escape. Even if we hide our cultivation, there is a limit. I can’t afford to continue living such a life… And in the past hundred years, my seal has begun to loosen and I’m starting to lose control. Recently, this has been even more serious…”
“Save me! Wang Lin, save me! I’ll do whatever you want as long as you save me!” Tears streamed down Zhao Xinmeng’s eyes as she looked at Wang Lin, and her voice became hoarse.
“Did you know that although you only returned yesterday, you have gathered the attention of everyone within the Heavenly Fate Sect who hid their cultivation? They must all be wondering when you will disappear…” Zhao Xinmeng bit her lower lip. She couldn’t talk to anyone about this, as this was considered an absolute taboo in the Heavenly Fate Sect!
She was already in despair before this. The seal on her body loosened more each day, and before long, the seal was going to collapse. The fear of her cultivation revealing itself terrified her.
“Rumor has it that that all cultivators whose cultivation level went past Ascendant were… Devoured by Master… Wang Lin, I won’t ask you to retrieve my soul, only that you help me reinforce the seal so that my cultivation will forever stay at the late of Soul Transformation.”
Zhao Xinmeng stood up and was about to bow to Wang Lin.
Wang Lin raised his right hand and a gentle force appeared, causing Zhao Xinmeng to stand up straight. He pondered for a bit and was about to speak when he suddenly looked outside the pavilion.
Zhao Xinmeng was startled, and a moment later, she also detected something. After pondering for a bit, for some reason her face blushed and she arrived next to Wang Lin in a flash. After taking off her shoes, she got onto Wang Lin’s bed and formed a seal to hide herself.
Wang Lin frowned. At this moment, light footsteps came from outside the pavilion.
“Seventh Junior Brother, Bai Wei requests a visit.” Bai Wei’s feminine voice slowly drifted into the room.
Wang Lin had no bad feelings toward Bai Wei. If not for Bai Wei secretly reminding him back then, Wang Lin wouldn’t have such a deep understanding of the All-Seer.
“Senior Brother Bai, please enter.” Wang Lin’s voice was calm. However, there were faint scent of body fragrance that entered his nose that made him uncomfortable.
The door opened. Bai Wei still had that beautiful appearance, but now he looked a bit frail. Inside the room, he looked at Wang Lin and let out a sigh. “Still the same as before. Seventh Brother you haven’t changed at all from back then.”
“Brother Bai is the same. We haven’t seen each other in hundreds of years, but it is as if I just saw you yesterday.” Wang Lin smiled.
Bai Wei’s eyes were like water as he looked at Wang Lin and softly said, “Seventh Brother is using the wrong term. I’m no longer Senior Brother Bai, but Junior Sister Bai…”
Wang Lin’s expression became strange and he couldn’t help but wryly smile.
Bai Wei saw Wang Lin’s expression and smiled. His eyes shined, revealing a peerless look, and he smiled. “Why is it so difficult to call me Junior Sister Bai? I have always been a woman.”
Wang Lin felt quite embarrassed. Even after a thousand years of cultivation and life experience, he still didn’t know what to do. He could only let out a dry cough and say, “I wonder what matter Senior Brother Bai came here for.”
Bai Wei’s eyebrows lifted and he looked at Wang Lin with his water-like eyes.
Even with Wang Lin’s early stage Nirvana Scryer cultivation and ancient god body, he was almost unable to bear this gaze. He wryly smiled and said, “Bai… Junior Sister Bai, what did you come here for?”
Bai Wei’s expression released and she whispered, “Wang Lin, you shouldn’t have come back! It’s not easy to say it here, but are you free? On planet Tian Yun, there is a market called the Ghost Eye. If you are free, then I have something to inform you on the way there.”
Wang Lin pondered. He hadn’t been back for a long, so it was a good idea to hear from Bai Wei what had happened in the hundreds of years that passed. Also, his relationship with Bai Wei was quite good, so there was no reason to refuse.
After observing Bai Wei, he found no seals. Bai Wei’s cultivation was truly at the mid stage of Soul Transformation.
“OK, we will meet below Mount Purple at noon today.”
Chapter 962 – Xu Liguo’s Favorite
Bai Wei smiled at Wang Lin, expectation filling his phoenix eyes, and he left.
Wang Lin wryly smiled. He felt a headache toward this Bai Wei. At this moment, a ripple appeared from his bag and Xu Liguo’s voice echoed in his mind.
“Top quality! Top quality! Master, this is top quality! I, Xu Liguo, have met countless people, but I have never met someone this graceful. Especially her gaze when she left, it made even Grandpa Xu’s bones soft. Master, if you don’t like it, then I do. When I saw her, it reminded me of Mei Ji[1].”
Wang Lin ignored Xu Liguo’s words and cut off his voice.
At this moment, a chuckle came from Wang Lin’s side. Zhao Xinmeng appeared and her gaze toward Wang Lin was a bit different.
Wang Lin frowned as he got up and sat down on the chair. He said, “Fourth Senior Sister, I’ll consider your matter.”
Zhao Xinmeng looked at Wang Lin, and after pondering for a bit, she softly said, “Although my cultivation level isn’t high, I have retained my virginity throughout my thousand years of cultivation. If you can strengthen my seal, I… I can give you my thousand year origin yin.” Zhao Xinmeng’s face turned red as she faced Wang Lin. She opened up her sleeve, revealing a small red dot.
She bit her lower lip and put down her sleeve before looking at Wang Lin and leaving.
“This is my last hope. If he can battle Ling Tianhou, his cultivation can’t merely be at the Nirvana Scryer stage, he is likely at the Nirvana Cleanser stage. If he helps me, he must be able to suppress the seal completely…” Zhao Xinmeng let out a sigh and her figure disappeared over the horizon.
“If I ask for others for help, with Master there, I fear no one would dare to help…”
Wang Lin sat inside the room and pondered. Helping Zhao Xinmeng was easy, but doing this would not please the All-Seer.
“If what Zhao Xinmeng said was true, then there must be a profound meaning to Master’s indifference… Presumably… He is also conflicted on this in his mind.”
While pondering, the celestial sword Xu Liguo was in began to become restless and the fluctuations from his bag disturbed his thoughts. Wang Lin frowned and slapped his bag of holding. The celestial sword immediately flew out and a large amount of black fog appeared. The black fog quickly condensed to reveal Xu Liguo’s figure.
Xu Liguo’s eyes shined. After he appeared, he inhaled deeply in the spot where Bai Wei stood earlier. His face was filled with an intoxicated look and he muttered, “Top quality! Really top quality! Compared to her, even the little girl in the Demon Spirit Land is nothing. If I can…” Xu Liguo revealed a nasty smile.
Wang Lin coldly looked at Xu Liguo. Xu Liguo trembled and he felt a cold intent spread across his body. This coldness penetrated his soul, which made him sober, and he began to secretly complain.
“Damn it, why did this fiend’s cultivation level go up again? There is no justice. Although I still feared him before, my soul didn’t tremble from must a gaze from this damn fiend. It felt as if this fiend could cause Grandpa Xu to die with just a thought!” Xu Liguo’s expression changed, but he immediately revealed a flattering expression.
“Master is mighty. Your cultivation level has increased once more. Master is really gifted by the heavens…”
Without waiting for Xu Liguo to finish speaking, Wang Lin interrupted him and calmly said, “What were you so anxious to come out for?” Although his voice was calm, his eyes were cold.
From Wang Lin’s view, Xu Liguo needed to be beaten down occasionally; otherwise, Xu Liguo would get too unruly. This devil was something he had created, and perhaps only he understood this devil the most.
Before Xu Liguo was refined into a devil, he had a lot of resentment, and his personality intensified after being refined into a devil. He knew that if Xu Liguo returned to his true form, the only way to control Xu Liguo was to always be stronger than him.
Back in the Nether Beast, the old man thought Xu Liguo was a loyal person, but in reality, he had no loyalty at all. At most it was a habit formed by being under Wang Lin’s control for almost 1,000 years.
Unyielding thoughts would occasionally appear in Xu Liguo’s heart. Wang Lin knew of this well.
“Not good. This devil fiend is going to punish me today…” Xu Liguo was nervous as he licked his lips and flattered, “Master, the reason Little Xu came out is to congratulate Master’s increase in cultivation. Ever since I brilliantly decided to follow Master, Master’s cultivation level has increased every time I come out. After a long time, this little one thought that if he comes out more often, maybe Master’s cultivation level will become even higher. Hehe…” As Xu Liguo spoke, he carefully looked at Wang Lin, ready to change his words at any time.
Wang Lin frowned but revealed a smile. He looked at Xu Liguo and said, “Since you have the heart, then don’t go back inside the celestial sword for now. Stay with me and properly comprehend the sword intent you inherited.
Xu Liguo immediately patted his chest and said, “Master, rest assured, Little Xu will not disgrace you and will properly cultivate.” Although Xu Liguo said this, he secretly laughed.
“It is still your Grandpa Xu who is smarter and has quicker reactions. Just a few sweet words and even this fiend will be beaten! No matter how high your cultivation level is, you can’t beat your Grandpa Xu’s spell!”
Wang Lin no longer paid any attention to Xu Liguo. He sat down and began to cultivate.
Xu Liguo was like a ghost that floated around in the room. Then he became bored and couldn’t help but think of Bai Wei’s peerless beauty. He first carefully looked at Wang Lin before he sniffed and revealed an intoxicated expression.
“Beauty, a real beauty… If she was a woman, she wouldn’t be that special. Grandpa Xu has met a lot of women, but her for be a man…” Xu Liguo’s mind trembled and his heart felt itchy. He wanted to go find Bai Wei right now to talk heart to heart.
His mind was filled with fantasies, and he felt restless. However, thinking about how Wang Lin was still nearby, he couldn’t help but sigh.
“When Grandpa Xu followed the Giant Demon Clan ancestor, the ancestor was so good to me. He gave me Mei Ji. Those days were filled with color… Unfortunately, after returning to this fiend, I’m stored away in the bag all day. The good life is so far away.” Thinking about this, Xu Liguo felt anger in his heart.
“When when my cultivation is strong enough one day, I must get back at this fiend. At most I’ll just fight to the death… fight…” Just as he was thinking, he suddenly saw Wang Lin’s eyelids move. He immediately revealing a flattering smile.
However, after waiting for a long time, Wang Lin’s eyes wouldn’t open. Xu Liguo inwardly cursed, “He really doesn’t know how to enjoy life. If I had someone so devoted to me, I would have already jump on them, not to mention that beauty…” Xu Liguo let out a sigh. He knew that he wasn’t powerful enough. After thinking for a long time, he sat down and began comprehend that ancient sword intent inheritance.
“Your Grandpa Xu has to work hard; otherwise, the gap between me and the fiend will only grow wider. Then I will never be able to escape this fiend’s clutches and escape this abyss of misery.”
After Xu Liguo began to cultivate, Wang Lin opened his eyes. His eyes shined brightly before he closed his eyes and ignored Xu Liguo. However, Wang Lin had made up his mind to refine this devil once more.
Time quickly passed, and in the blink of an eye, it was noon. The sun outside the pavilion was bright and seemed to dispel all darkness. The sky was clear and blue; it would cause anyone’s heart to calm down.
Wang Lin opened his eyes and his body moved. The door opened on its own and he walked out. Xu Liguo got up to follow. His eyes looked around as he suppressed the excitement in his heart.
“I’m about to see that beauty!”
Wang Lin stepped through the air and headed toward the bottom of Mount Purple. In the distance, he could see figures moving among the seven mountains. This revealed the scene of a big sect.
There was chanting coming from the distance. It was the lower level disciples of the Heavenly Fate Sect practicing their spell proficiency.
Dense spiritual energy filled the Heavenly Fate Sect. However, it was noon, so the spiritual energy contained Yang fire and was not fit for cultivation. There was no magnificent fluctuations of spiritual energy like there was during dawn or dusk.
The Purple Division had the lowest status among the seven divisions. Even the seven direct disciple lineup wasn’t complete; including Wang Lin, there were only five.
As a result, there were fewer ordinary disciples on Mount Purple. This made the huge mountain quite bleak. It was sparsely populated.
As he walked down from the mountain, he saw no one. Xu Liguo followed behind Wang Lin, and the sunlight that landed on him didn’t give him any discomfort. In fact, it felt pleasant, especially with the thought of how he would meet the beauty soon. Xu Liguo’s heart itched, and he only hated Wang Lin for being too slow.
Looking at Wang Lin’s shadow, Xu Liguo thought, “This fiend has cultivated for so many years and has had no fun in his life, but even this Grandpa Xu has to admire his increase in cultivation levels! That little Core Formation cultivator has become a powerhouse…” Just thinking about this, Xu Liguo quickly dispelled this idea and thought, “I can’t become like him. What joy is there in his life? It can be said that this fiend’s cultivation was built by danger and slaughter. I, Xu Liguo, am not suited for this. It is comfortable to hold beauties.
“If I were like him, I would definitely be destroyed sooner or later. I don’t know when this fiend will have bad luck and be killed… No, if he is killed, my fate won’t be good either. Perhaps my mind will be erased to be used as an ordinary sword spirit.” While Xu Liguo was thinking about random thing,s Wang Lin had arrived at the bottom of the mountain.
There was a pavilion at the bottom of the mountain. There was a purple figure standing inside the pavilion, and from afar they gave off a graceful feeling. However, the figure was feminine and revealed a hint of weakness.
At this moment, a gentle breeze blew out and lifted the purple figure’s hair. This person lifted their hair with their jade-like hand, then they turned around and smiled at Wang Lin.
If one didn’t know the details, then this person was far more beautiful than most women.
Bai Wei’s eyes lit up and he smiled. “Senior Brother Wang indeed kept his promise.”
Although Wang Lin’s expression was neutral, Xu Liguo stared at Bai Wei from behind him. If not for Wang Lin being here, then no matter what, he would have jumped at Bai Wei.
“What is this?” Bai Wei’s gaze looked at Xu Liguo. Xu Liguo’s body was filled with black mist, and at this moment, this black mist contracted, revealing his appearance when he was a cultivator. His eyes revealed an evil glare, but his expression was serious. Just as he was about to speak, he heard a cold snort that frightened him to immediately reveal a flattering expression.
The rapid change startled Bai Wei.
“This is my treasure spirit. Brother Bai, where is the market you were talking about? Please lead the way.” Wang Lin didn’t make much of an introduction.
With Wang Lin here, even though Xu Liguo’s heart itched, he didn’t dare to reveal too much. He could only look helplessly at Bai Wei and curse in his mind. “This damn fiend Wang Lin. He’s not going to eat him himself, and he also won’t let Grandpa Xu eat. There no is justice, no justice!”
Bai Wei’s eyebrows wrinkled and he said, “Senior Brother Wang!”
Wang Lin immediately became embarrassed. It was very rare for him to become embarrassed, and now Bai Wei had done it twice.
While he was embarrassed, Xu Liguo’s eyes lit up and he stared at Bai Wei. He thought to himself, “Heaven has shined upon me, Xu Liguo, to meet the love of my life. I can’t stand it!” Black smoke appeared around Xu Liguo and he turned into a big mouth that look like it was going to devour Bai Wei.
At this moment, every thought of Wang Lin was all thrown away by his mind. He could only see Bai Wei’s smile. As he rushed out, a cold light flashed in Wang Lin’s eyes and his hand penetrated the black mist and directly grabbed Xu Liguo’s soul.
Xu Liguo suddenly around and just revealed a fierce expression at Wang Lin when Wang Lin grabbed him. Then Xu Liguo quickly revealed a flattering expression and repeated, “Master, Master, I know was wrong. I was wrong.”
Wang Lin grabbed Xu Liguo and said, “Bai… Junior Sister Bai, please lead the way.”
Bai Wei also saw some clue and looked at Xu Liguo with great interest. This gaze made Xu Liguo excited.
Bai Wei smiled as he slapped his bag of holding and a flying sword appeared. He stood on the sword and flew off into the distance. Wang Lin’s expression was calm as he took a step and caught up to the sword light.
“Although this Bai Wei was feminine before, it was not this extreme. His body is now filled with Yin aura and even his temperament has changed greatly!” Moving forward, Wang Lin could feel someone secretly following him. Without even turning around, he knew this person was Zhao Xinmeng!
Chapter 963 – The Three Chen Brothers
“Due to the Yin energy inside Bai Wei’s body, not only did his mind change, his behavior has also become quite feminine. If he was born like this, it would be fine, but it was obviously not this extreme back then.”
While they flew, Wang Lin’s light shined faintly as he looked at Bai Wei. He always felt like there was something wrong with Bai Wei, but he couldn’t find the exact problem.
However, a thousand years of cultivation allowed him some special sense. Although he was not as all-seeing as the All-Seer, he could still feel a trace of events that were yet to occur.
Bai Wei apparently didn’t notice Wang Lin’s divine sense sweeping past him and continued to smile and talk with Wang Lin.
“You weren’t here for long before. In a few months, the weather on planet Tian Yun will change. The abrupt change between overcast and sunny is regarded as a unique scenery of planet Tian Yun.
“During these hundreds of years, the Heavenly Fate Sect has been calm and not much has happened. If anything did happen, it’s that a white tree someone planted in the back mountain and claimed it would never flower flowered. However, the color of the flowers weren’t white but black. It only lasted three breaths of time before it turned to dust… It surprised quite a few people that time. I was there as well; I thought it would have been great if I could have saved a flower.”
“There is nothing suspicious…” Wang Lin frowned, but that slight feeling was nagging in his heart. His expression remained neutral as he coped with Bai Wei’s conversation.
“After you left, Master spent most of his time in closed door cultivation and rarely came out…”
As Bai Wei smiled, he told Wang Lin every single incident that happened in the Heavenly Fate Sect. At the start, Wang Lin was seriously listening, but soon he frowned.
Nothing Bai Wei talked about was great; they were all trivial things that had no meaning.
Bai Wei smiled. “There is also Ghost Eye City. That city became famous many years ago after successfully auctioning a complete celestial spell. Every time it opens, it attracts a large amount of cultivators. It is open for one month, and aside from the auction house, people are free to trade. However, Ghost Eye City wasn’t very big and the amount of residences are limited. If we go late, I’m afraid we’ll have to camp.”
Wang Lin pondered a bit and allowed Bai Wei to talk while leading the way, but he pondered in his heart.
After 15 minutes, Wang Lin suddenly said, “Junior Sister Bai, what cultivation method do you cultivate?”
Bai Wei was startled and his expression changed. He stopped before retreating a few steps while starting at Wang Lin and saying, “Does Brother Wang disdain me? If you find me annoying, then I’ll leave and never bother you again!”
Wang Lin was shocked. He only asked what his cultivation method was, but he didn’t expect Bai Wei to change so greatly.
Wang Lin slowly said, “Brother Bai misunderstands; I’m just casually asking.”
Bai Wei bit his lower lip and pondered for a moment. He then looked at Wang Lin with a complex look and said, “The cultivation method I cultivate is called Celestial Double Desire Art!” After speaking, Bai Wei became silent and flew north.
“Celestial Double Desire Art…” Wang Lin’s eyes shined as he looked at Bai Wei’s figure. His eyes narrowed, and he could clearly see the rich Yin energy inside Bai Wei suddenly accelerate. It was moving very quickly through Bai Wei’s meridians and formed a mark.
This mark was formed by the movement of Yin energy through Bai Wei’s meridians. Before, the Yin energy inside Bai Wei was too slow for Wang Lin to notice. However, he was able to see it now, but the mark only appeared for a moment before disappearing.
Wang Lin’s eyes lit up and he remembered that mark. He asked no more questions and followed Bai Wei. At dusk, he saw a circular city in the distance.
This city was like a circle that fell on the earth and was guarded by cultivators. Before they got close, Wang Lin felt fluctuations of restriction surrounding the city.
Rays of sword energy would occasionally drop down from the horizon. Sometimes it would be one and sometimes it would be many. They descended outside the city and showed their invitations before entering.
Wang Lin know it was best not to spread out his divine sense in an unfamiliar place, or else it could cause misunderstandings. He was naturally cautious, and although his cultivation level had increased, his caution hadn’t reduced. After all, caution was needed to survive in the cultivation world.
After pondering a bit, Wang Lin’s divine sense spread out toward the city. He wasn’t rash in the way he spread his divine sense; it was more like a gentle breath. He didn’t try to find the secrets in the city but focused on the restriction fluctuations.
He was acting like he had arrived before a strange door. Instead of violently breaking into the door, he was opening the door and taking a quick look inside. Although this was impolite, it was a common behavior in the cultivation world.
Unless one was very tyrannical, this generally wouldn’t cause any misunderstandings.
The restriction over the city had no objection toward Wang Lin at all. With Wang Lin’s cultivation and enlightenment in restriction, the restriction over the city didn’t notice his divine sense at all.
However, just as Wang Lin’s divine sense went through the restriction and was about to return after sweeping the city, three divine senses that were well-hidden erupted. They were like three dragons that charged at Wang Lin’s divine sense.
“What cultivator came to my Ghost Eye City? I’m one of the three Chen brothers, Master Yi Chen!” An ancient voice came out from the divine sense when it got close to Wang Lin’s divine sense.
At the same time, the illusionary dragon formed by the three divine senses rotated to form a storm. They were about to trap Wang Lin’s divine sense to prevent it from leaving.
Two of the three divine senses were at the early stage of Nirvana Scryer. The divine sense of Master Yi Chen was at the mid stage of Nirvana Scryer. The combination of their divine senses made Wang Lin unable to escape immediately.
Wang Lin’s spells were all within his body, and his divine sense hadn’t reached the mid stage of Nirvana Scryer yet, so he was no match for the three of them with his divine sense.
“I’m the Heavenly Fate Sect’s Wang Lin. It is my hope I hope you’ll forgive me.” Wang Lin was the first to be impolite, so he wasn’t angry.
“Your divine sense was reckless and was trapped by me, but you want me to forgive you? What kind of reasoning is that? Today, the three of us won’t make it hard on you. Personally come to admit your mistake and then immediately leave. If you dare to step into Ghost Eye City again, don’t blame us for not being kind!” Next to Master Yi Chen, a gloomy divine sense appeared.
Wang Lin and Bai Wei stood outside the city, waiting in line to enter. As for Wang Lin’s conversion with the three, unless one’s cultivation was very high, they wouldn’t notice anything.
Bai Wei was obviously not aware of anything, but Wang Lin frowned.
“I hope Fellow Cultivator doesn’t mind, but the three of us are in charge of Ghost Eye City’s security, so we must be cautious. If Fellow Cultivator doesn’t agree, then don’t blame me for destroying this divine sense!” Master Yi Chen sent out a sigh. He knew doing this was a bit too much. After all, this person hadn’t gone out of bounds and it was just a natural sweep.
The three Chen brothers had all done this before. Except right now, they were hired by Ghost Eye City, so they had to be cautious. Also, he was a bit unhappy right now.
Basically all the Nirvana Scryer old monsters on the planet understood that the three of them were responsible for the security of Ghost Eye City. Most of them wouldn’t probe with their divine senses as a sign of respect to the three of them.
The person before him obviously wasn’t showing them any respect. What use was it for him to admit to his mistake after realizing the situation was bad?
“If this person refuses to admit his mistake and comes to fight the three of us, I can respect him as an equal. However, it is obvious he saw how strong we three are and became timid!
“Moverover, if we don’t severely punish this person, we will not have a day of peace before the auction begins. In order to scare of others that dare to observe with their divine senses, we must be more severe.
“I’ll give you three seconds to consider!” Master Yi Chen gently spread out his message. It would be too easy for the three of them to take care of an early stage Nirvana Scryer cultivator! Even if this person was really from the Heavenly Fate Sect, the All-Seer wouldn’t lower himself to deal with them. Moreover, the three of them didn’t kill. After all, the three of them had given this person a chance, so even if they destroyed his divine sense, no one would say anything.
If it was someone from the Da Lou Sword Sect, Master Yi Chen wouldn’t think this. After all, Sword Saint Ling Tianhou was famous for protecting his own.
Three breaths of time passed by in an instant. Master Yi Chen let out a cold snort and the divine sense dragon formed by the three of them let out a roar at Wang Lin’s trapped divine sense. They were about to destroy Wang Lin’s trapped divine sense.
“The three of you have gone too far!” Wang Lin didn’t pay attention to Bai Wei or Xu Liguo. He frowned and then disappeared with a step.
Ghost Eye City’s restriction couldn’t even stop Wang Lin’s divine sense, much less his physical body. At the moment Wang Lin disappeared, the restriction only flashed three times before it completely collapsed.
The moment the restriction collapsed, Wang Lin’s figure appeared above Ghost Eye City. His speed was beyond imagination. The moment Wang Lin appeared, he directly grabbed a divine sense dragon. The dragon wanted to struggle, but it was no use. Wang Lin flung the dragon backward and there was a loud rumble as the divine sense dragon collapsed.
Inside Ghost Eye City, there was a very beautiful building. Inside the third room from the east sat an old man. This old man wore a green robe and had a dignified expression. However, at this moment, his eyes opened, he coughed out blood, and his expression changed greatly!
“Nirvana Cleanser old monster!” The old man’s body flickered and disappeared.
Chapter 964 – Converting an Enemy to a Friend
Moving like water, Wang Lin’s hand formed a fist and he casually threw a punch. An unimaginable black storm formed. One of the divine senses that formed the divine sense dragon was touched by Wang Lin’s punch.
That divine sense collapsed before it could even resist.
The moment the divine sense dissipated, in the magnificent building of Ghost Eye City, a middle-aged man in purple was in the second room from the east drinking tea. He suddenly smashed the tea cup and the tea evaporated. The middle-aged man turned pale and he coughed out blood, then aghast filled his eyes.
The rate of his heart pounding accelerated and he exclaimed, “Could it be Nirvana Cleanser!?” His expression changed before he finally clenched his teeth and disappeared from the room.
As Wang Lin floated in air, his divine sense returned to his body. He coldly looked at last divine sense. The owner of that divine sense was Master Yi Chen.
Everything happened too fast, and it was over in a flash. The last divine sense quickly retreated.
With an indifferent expression, Wang Lin’s hand reached out. The last divine sense seemed to be squeezed by the world and was pulled toward Wang Lin. Wang Lin grabbed it and directly crushed it.
In the first room from the east in that magnificent building, there was a white-haired old man. He was standing behind the table with a brush in his hand and was writing vigorously on the paper on the table.
Doing multiple things at once was too easy for cultivators like them. However, at this moment, the brush in his hand broke and he suddenly looked up. His face turned pale and blood rushed up his throat, but he forcibly suppressed it.
“Not good!” The old man cursed in his heart and waved his sleeves as he charged out at an extremely fast speed.
A wave was set off in Ghost Eye City as the collapse of the restriction caught the attention of all the cultivators. They all had varying cultivation levels, and they looked up at the sky.
Wang Lin’s expression was calm. He had already been very tolerant. If the three of them had released his divine sense, this would not have happened.
Three rays of right light flew out from the city and arrived before Wang Lin. The three rays rays of light revealed themselves to be the three Chen brothers!
The old man with white hair was Master Yi Chen. Behind him was the green-robed old man and the purple-robed middle-aged man. The three of them had bitter expressions. They didn’t understand how this person had easily destroyed their divine senses in person when his divine sense was clearly at the early stage of Nirvana Scryer.
If he merely destroyed their divine senses, they wouldn’t be so scared, as they simply could have worked together. However, what terrified them was how easily Wang Lin had done it.
One grasp, one punch, one squeeze. All very simple and all random actions. The three of them could feel that he hadn’t even put any effort into it, and that was the root of their terror.
No Nirvana Scryer cultivator could do this; not even peak late stage Nirvana Scryer cultivator can do this, because there were, after all, three of them! There was only one explanation for what had happened: this person was a Nirvana Cleanser cultivator!
“Please forgive us, Fellow Cultivator Wang Lin. This matter was our fault…” Master Yi Chen bitterly smiled. The three of them stood before Wang Lin rather embarrassedly. The three of them were all famous on planet Tian Yun, and now that they had provoked someone they shouldn’t have. Although their hearts felt bitter, they didn’t feel dissatisfaction.
After all, since the other party was a Nirvana Cleanser cultivator, forget a courteous sweep of divine sense, even if he arrogantly swept by, it would be understandable.
If they knew his cultivation level beforehand, they wouldn’t have dared to stop him. After all, no one would dare to question a Nirvana Cleanser cultivator that had come to Ghost Eye City. Even if that person didn’t have an invitation, they would be treated as an honored guest.
“In Planet Tian Yun and all the surrounding planets, Nirvana Cleanser cultivators are extremely rare. Any one of them are people who can make a cultivation planet tremble with a stomp of their feet. I haven’t heard of anyone named Wang Lin. He said that he was from the Heavenly Fate Sect… Could it be… Could he be from an older generation of the All-Seer’s disciples?” The three of them all looked at each other with doubt in their eyes. However, the power Wang Lin showed off was indeed worthy of a Nirvana Cleanser cultivator.
The green-robed old man felt rather embarrassed and said, “Please don’t blame us, Fellow Cultivator Wang. The three of us are in charge of this city, so we may had offended you. Please forget us, forgive us!”
The middle-aged man also let out a wry smile and thought, “The reputation of the three Chen brothers didn’t really fall. After all, who would dare provoke a Nirvana Cleanser cultivator?”
All three of them had sincere expressions and repeatedly admitted their mistake. Wang Lin’s expression relaxed and he calmly said, “It was also I who made the mistake first, so let’s just forget this matter.”
The three of them let out sighs of relief. If Wang Lin wouldn’t let this go, they could only try to escape. Provoking a Nirvana Cleanser cultivator was like being branded for death.
Master Yi Chen politely said, “Fellow Cultivator Wang must have came to Ghost Eye City for that bottle of Liquid Purple Jade. However, there are still several days before the auction. Does Fellow Cultivator have a place to stay? If not, the three of us can arrange a place for you.”
The purple-robed middle-aged man and the green-robed old man both looked at Wang Lin with inviting gazes.
No matter how arrogant the three of them were, when facing a Nirvana Cleanser cultivator, they didn’t dare to reveal any of it. Instead, they showed the intent of getting closer.
“Liquid Purple Jade?” This sounded familiar to Wang Lin. After pondering a bit, he looked at the three of them and nodded. “Then I’ll be trouble you three fellow cultivators!”
Master Yi Chen laughed and said, “No problem. It was fate that we were able to become acquainted with Fellow Cultivator Wang Lin.” He smiled as he gestured with his right hand to welcome Wang Lin.
Wang Lin turned around and looked at the distance. At the city gate, Bai Wei was staring at him, and behind him was Xu Liguo.
“You guys, come over.” Wang Lin’s voice wasn’t loud, but it clearly entered Bai Wei’s ears.
Bai Wei hesitated a bit before flying into the air. Xu Liguo looked at Bai Wei’s back with a memorized look and quickly followed.
When the three of them saw Bai Wei, they were startled, but they didn’t say anything. They went to the eastern side of the city to a gorgeous four story building. There was a courtyard around it filled with fake mountains and rivers. The spiritual energy here was very dense.
Master Yi Chen smiled. “This is where the three of us stay in the city. Fellow Cultivator Wang can pick a room.”
Wang Lin clasped his hands and smiled. “Many thanks!”
Only after seeing Wang Lin’s smile did the three brothers finally relax. The purple-robed middle-aged man laughed. “Brother Wang, rest first and I’ll order people to prepare some fruit. Since we brothers don’t know Brother Wang, the four of us have to debate dao.”
Master Yi Chen nodded with a smile. The green-robed old man laughed. “Third Brother is right. How we met Fellow Brother Wang can be considered a legend!”
Wang Lin faintly smiled. There was no need to reject their warm invitation, and he was also interested in the Liquid Purple Jade. He nodded. “If that’s the case, then I’ll be happy to oblige.”
“Brother Wang is too polite.” Master Yi Chen then left with the other two.
Bai Wei couldn’t get used to all of this. With his cultivation level, he would’ve never interacted with cultivators of this level, even though he was the All-Seer’s disciple.
Soon, servants came and arranged lodgings for the two of them. There were lot of vacant rooms here. After Bai Wei left, Xu Liguo subconsciously followed, but after Wang Lin cast a cold gaze, he obediently followed Wang Lin.
The room Wang Lin chose was a rather elegant room on the second floor. The purple wooden table and chair, the red wooden cabinet, and the painting hanging on the wall all calmed his mind.
There was an embroidered yellow lamp shade over a carved dragon lamp. When the light went through the shade, it was bright yet gentle as it scattered into every corner of the room.
The room wasn’t big, but Wang Lin was very satisfied. Xu Liguo floated in the air and looked around. His heart was filled with disdain and he wondered what was so good about this place. This fiend really didn’t know how to enjoy himself. If it was up to him, he would find a place with a lot of girls. Oh, how comfortable that would be.
Wang Lin quietly sat in the room with his eyes half-closed. It looked like he was looking at the window, but in truth was thinking about Bai Wei’s actions.
“What exactly is this Bai Wei looking for me for… He would not call me here for nothing. There is also that strange mark in his body…” Wang Lin pondered. He had always felt like there was something Bai Wei wanted to say to him.
“Everything he spoke about along the way was pointless… What does he want to say to me…” Wang Lin frowned as he recalled everything Bai Wei said. Then his eyes suddenly narrowed.
“Could it be that what Bai Wei wanted to say was contained within those pointless matters… If that’s really the case, then he must be facing some difficulties that made him not dare to speak to me directly. He is certainly not afraid of me, but… Master?” Wang Lin felt like he had grasped some clue, but he wasn’t sure.
“Perhaps there are restrictions that prevent him from telling me… so he could only give hints…” Wang Lin silently pondered about how Bai Wei’s expression changed so drastically when he asked about Bai Wei’s cultivation method.
It was also at that moment that Wang Li noticed the strange mark formed by the movement of the Yin energy inside Bai Wei.
“What exactly does Bai Wei want to say…” Wang Lin pondered for a moment before he looked up at the door. A moment later, Master Yi Chen’s voice came through.
“Brother Wang, the fruit and nectar have been prepared. Since the sky isn’t dark yet, how about the four of us debate dao?”
Chapter 966 – Understanding the Truth
Master Yi Chen seemed to have gained a little enlightenment. He held the wine cup and didn’t put it down for a long time.
“Is Brother Wang talking about the Allheaven Star System when talking about cultivation families?” Master Yi Chen revealed a look of interest. After Wang Lin nodded, Master Yi Chen continued, “Speaking of the Allheaven Star System, they really are different. It is astonishing for them to have developed so far by focusing on cultivation families. If it wasn’t for the Cultivation Alliance telling me this, I wouldn’t believe it.”
“Allheaven’s battle against the Alliance in the north caused the Alliance to retreat. Their power can’t be underestimated.”
As he spoke, bursts of thunder came from the night sky and the clouds gradually gathered to cover the stars. Humidity filled the area and then a bolt of lightning that illuminated the night struck down.
At the same time, large drops of rain poured down, creating loud splashing sounds. There was a thin layer of mist rising up from the ground.
The stunning woman named Ling Er exclaimed and quickly came to the edge of the pavilion to look outside.
Master Yi Chen’s enlightenment was interrupted. He was startled before shaking his head. “Planet Tian Yun’s weather has been very strange in the recent months. A moment ago it was a bright night sky, yet the next moment dark clouds cover the sky and there is heavy rain.”
The middle-aged man named Master Yi Xing nodded and said, “Yes, it is like an eccentric cultivator whose personality keeps changing and is impossible to see through.”
When what they said landed in Wang Lin’s ears, it caused him to tremble. He suddenly looked up at the sky outside the pavilion with the wine cup in his hand. It was as if he was struck by lightning. Originally, he was confused by the matter with Bai Wei, but now it was as if a pair of invisible hands had opened up a path.
“It’s like a person’s personality; it is strange and constantly changing. Impossible to see through…
“Earlier, Bai Wei said that the weather on planet Tian Yun will change in a few months. The abrupt changes between cloudy and sunny are a unique sight to planet Tian Yun.
“Although this sounds ordinary, it is actually profound. The constant changes in weather on planet Tian Yun are actually referring to Master’s personality constantly changing. It was the same as the speculation I had about him constantly changing between his avatars!”
Wang Lin’s actions caused the three Chen brothers to look at each other. They couldn’t see through what Wang Lin was thinking and couldn’t help but quiet down.
After Master Yi Xing’s words removed the fog in his mind, Wang Lin’s thoughts were incredibly clear. He thought back to Bai Wei’s demeanor and seemed to grasp some of the situation.
“There was a white tree someone planted in the back mountain, and it was claimed it would never flower, but it flowered. However, the color of the flowers weren’t white but black. They only lasted three breaths of time before they all turned to dust… It surprised quite a few people that time. I was there as well; I thought it would have been great if I could have saved a flower.
“There was a hidden meaning behind his words. That white tree was referring to Bai Wei himself! The white tree being unable to flower means he was originally a man, yet he became a woman… Then he said the white flowers unexpectedly flowered, but instead of the flowers being white, they were black. This is even more obvious, he is telling me that due to some reason, the black and white reversed and he went from male to female!
“The flower only being alive for three breaths of time means he didn’t have much time to leave. He told me all of this so I could save him!
“This was why his reaction was so exaggerated when I asked him his cultivation method, it was to increase my doubt and ponder his words. This was also why he told me it was the Celestial Double Desire method!
“The strange mark formed by the Yin energy flow normally doesn’t reveal itself. However, when Bai Wei said ‘Celestial Double Desire method,’ it appeared. It was Bai Wei wanting to remind me of something!!
“Combined with what he said about the weather changing before, it means the person he was afraid of was the All-Seer. The person who caused him to become like this was likely also the All-Seer!
“This is the real reason he asked me to come out of Heavenly Fate Sect!” Wang Lin suddenly stood up, clasped his hands at the three Chen brothers, and said, “Three fellow cultivators, I have an important matter to deal with, so I won’t disturb you all any longer!” After Wang Lin spoke, he grabbed Xu Liguo and threw him into his bag. Then, with a step, he disappeared.
The three Chen brothers were greatly puzzled. After pondering a bit, they couldn’t think of a reason.
With one step, Wang Lin had already appeared outside Bai Wei’s room. He didn’t want to know the All-Seer’s secrets, but he had to be constantly on guard. Only after understanding the All-Seer could he protect himself.
As a result, Wang Lin wanted to know exactly what was going on with Bai Wei!
Just as he appeared, he exclaimed and felt a faint restriction fluctuation from Bai Wei’s room. It was extremely weak, and even with Wang Lin’s cultivation level, he wouldn’t notice it unless he was here.
“Something’s wrong!” Wang Lin’s eyes lit up and his divine sense charged straight into the room. The moment his divine sense touched the weak restriction fluctuation, a powerful repelling force appeared and collided with Wang Lin’s divine sense.
This sound echoed and immediately caught the attention of the three Chen brothers.
After the loud noise, Wang Lin’s eyes lit up. The room he forcibly opened became clear in his eyes and there wasn’t a single person inside!
Bai Wei was missing!
“With Bai Wei’s cultivation, it would be impossible for him to leave without me or the Chen brother noticing. It is also impossible for him to place such restrictions. Bai Wei must have been taken by force!
“The person who took Bai Wei must have a cultivation level far higher than mine and the Chen brothers’!” Wang Lin’s expression was gloomy, but his eyes quickly narrowed.
“Wrong! If someone took Bai Wei, why did they place a restriction to guard the room…” Wang Lin silently pondered and then revealed a sneer.
Wang Lin’s body flickered and immediately disappeared. When he reappeared, he was in the sky. At this moment, the world was shrouded in rain, lightning flashed inside the clouds, and thunder echoed across the planet.
Wang Lin’s divine sense spread out and swept the area, but he didn’t find any sign of Bai Wei. Wang Lin knew it wasn’t that Bai Wei had let the area but was hidden well enough to avoid his divine sense.
His right hand formed a seal and he pointed up at the sky and said, “Summon the Rain!” As he waved his finger, lightning flashed across the sky and lit up the earth. All the rain around Wang Lin seemed to solidify in the air and stopped descending.
Shortly after, an invisible force seemed to come out from Wang Lin’s finger. In an instant, all the rain within tens of thousands of kilometers was enveloped in this force and stopped.
Even the new rain formed by the clouds in the sky no longer fell. The other raindrops all froze in various positions in the air. Even if they were just one inch above the ground, they were still motionless.
Every raindrop contained a strange force.
Endless origin energy instantly gathered and entered very raindrop. At this moment, the world lit up, and the surge of origin energy shocked all the powerful cultivators in Ghost Eye City.
The three Chen brothers looked up at the sky in shock.
Master Yi Chen gasped and muttered, “This kind of spell… Is something only Nirvana Cleanser cultivators can use!”
Wang Lin’s eyes lit up and he waved his hand. A loud rumble came from all the raindrops that froze, and they gathered around Wang Lin. In the blink of an eye, they formed a huge vortex.
The rumble of the storm echoed across the sky. Wang Lin’s divine sense spread out and entered the vortex. Then both of his hands formed a seal and pointed at the ground. The storm smashed down and the countless raindrop spread everywhere. The raindrops split into countless more raindrops, and all of them contained Wang Lin’s divine sense. It was as if Wang Lin’s divine sense had split into countless avatars.
Every single avatar spread out their own divine sense, and although it didn’t increase the range of Wang Lin’s divine sense, it made his search much more refined.
As his divine sense swept the area, Wang Lin’s eyes lit up and landed on a valley thousands of kilometers away from Ghost Eye City.
He took a step, creating a loud rumble. Wang Lin turned into a bolt of lightning and charged toward the valley thousands of kilometers away.
This distance only took him a blink of an eye to cross. There was a restriction in the valley, but this restriction gave off no fluctuations. If it wasn’t for the fact that he had used the rain to enhance his divine sense, he would’ve never found anything abnormal.
When he arrived, the restriction opened a sliver without Wang Lin doing anything. Then a vigorous voice came out.
“Please enter, Brother Wang.”
“Bai Wei!” Wang Lin’s expression was calm, but his heart was in shock. This voice indeed belonged to Bai Wei. However, Bai Wei’s voice before was feminine, making it difficult to tell if it was male or female. However, at this moment his voice was filled with vigor and was obvious it was a male’s voice.
Wang Lin frowned as he stepped into the restriction crack and entered the valley.
This valley was isolated from the rain, so no rain entered. The valley was filled with flowers and plants, but everything had long since been dead. A large amount of Yin energy was gathered here.
There was a person sitting in the valley!
This person was Bai Wei!
However, this aura was very different from Wang Lin’s memories. Bai Wei’s face was calm and the feminine aura he had was now gone. Instead, it was replaced with a sense of determination, his eyes were like lightning, and a stern aura surrounded his body.
The current him no longer had the look of a woman. No matter how you looked at it, he was a handsome man.
Bai Wei pondered for a bit and then slowly said, “Brother Wang, are you surprised?”
Chapter 967 – Let the All-Seer Foresee Wrong Once!
Bai Wei looked at the restriction above the valley and said, “My name is Bai Wei! Brother Wang, you coming here means you must have understood the meaning behind my words.”
Wang Lin frowned. Not only was the Yin energy still inside Bai Wei’s body, it was extremely strong. In fact, it had already reached an unimaginable degree.
This dense Yin energy shouldn’t appear inside a cultivator’s body. It was strong enough to almost become solid. With Bai Wei’s cultivation level, his body shouldn’t be able to bear this kind of Yin energy. He should have already lost all vital signs and become a corpse.
Wang Lin calmly and slowly said, “The white tree blooms, black and white reverse. I did understand some of what Brother Bai said.”
Bai Wei let out a sigh and revealed a wry smile. After a moment of silence, he said, “I still can’t outscheme Master. I thought I had three more months before the real danger. Within those three months, I thought I could get Brother Wang to help me. I had a 20% chance of escaping, but unfortunately… I still failed to escape from Master’s plan.”
Wang Lin frowned but didn’t speak.
“Brother Wang, I originally didn’t think you would find me this quick and was prepared to give you a hint tomorrow, but there is no need for that now. Right now is when Master is in closed door cultivation. Once he comes out, he will notice the anomaly and come here.”
“Before Master arrives, is Brother Wang willing to hear a story…” Bai Wei revealed a bitter smile as confusion and reminiscence filled his eyes.
“I was born in a rich mortal family on planet Tian Yun. Right before I was born, the sky was filled with a red glow, and then after I was born, it disappeared.
“It wasn’t until after I entered the cultivation world that I learned that the red light was true Yang, and if you calculate my time of birth, it was during a moment of extreme Yang.
“It was an extremely rare day that only happens once every thousands of years. I went back and searched. Every single child born that day had died in their mothers’ wombs besides me.
“If it was a boy, they would at least leave behind a corpse. However, if it was a girl, then they would dissipate, leaving nothing behind.” Pain filled Bai Wei’s eyes as he looked ahead. It was as if he was recalling something he didn’t want to remember.
“I had a sister… We were twins. When the extreme Yang reaches its peak, there is a moment of extreme Yin. I was born just as it was about to turn to extreme Yin. Although my little sister dissipated, she absorbed a bit of that extreme Yin. Her flesh was gone, but her soul entered my body.
“Originally, everything was peaceful and Little Sister’s soul had not awakened; she remained asleep. If things remained like this, then none of this would have happened.
“When I was seven, I was brought into the Heavenly Fate Sect. My talent was very good and I cultivated very fast. I soon stood out among the outer disciples and became an inner disciple.
“In the blink of an eye, hundreds of years passed and I reached the Soul Transformation stage. I also obtained the chance to step out among the inner disciples and became one of Master’s direct disciples in the Purple Division.
“As my cultivation level increased, I gradually noticed how I was different. I also found out that half of my soul belongs to my little sister and that her soul was showing signs of awakening. My original plan was to ask Master to help separate her soul and let her enter the reincarnation cycle after she awakened…” Bai Wei let out a bitter sigh, but soon his expression became ferocious and he clenched his teeth.
“I’ll never forget that day. I was cultivating and my little sister’s soul was about to awaken. Then Zhao Xingsha suddenly appeared before me with a cultivation level far above mine and injured me. This caused my little sister’s soul to further integrate with mine when she was about to awaken. This forced me into that miserable situation where I was not male or female.” Monstrous hatred filled Bai Wei’s eyes.
“In desperation, I looked for Master for help, and Master gave me the Celestial Double Desire method. He said that once I cultivate to the 9th level, my sister and I will separate.
“I had never thought that Master would lie to me. Thanks to the Celestial Double Desire method, my cultivation expectedly increased leaps and bounds. This method focused on the soul and had great influence on my growth. However, I didn’t care about it; all I wanted was to allow my little sister’s soul to return into the reincarnation cycle one day.
“In a flash, hundreds of years passed. This was also when you left planet Tian Yun. When I found out that something was wrong, it was too late…” Bai Wei’s eyes filled with sadness and he tore his shirt, exposing his chest. There was a green line and a red line extending from each of his arms, and the two lines intersect in the middle as if they were tree branches.
“See this? This is the mysterious thing that appeared on my body after cultivating the Celestial Double Desire method. All the meridians in my body changed after cultivating the Yin and Yang Double Desire method.” At this moment, pain filled Bai Wei’s face. The Yin energy inside his body moved and that strange mark appeared once more.
“Every time I talk about it, this mark activates and the Yin energy inside my body increases greatly. The Yin and Yang Double Desire method cultivates on its own, outside of my control.
“I also know that the extreme Yang change was done by Master. He used his spell to cause an extremely rare extreme Yang day to occur… All of this was part of his plan…
“As I stayed in the Heavenly Fate Sect, I gradually understood. Master’s cultivation has reached a bottleneck. He is unable to escape and has been possessed by this inner demon… I am merely one of his experiments…
“I know that Master is waiting for the extreme Yin to reach its peak. Just like how the day of extreme Yang had that instant of extreme Yin, he is waiting for that moment of extreme Yang from the extreme Yin in my body!
“I also know that Master has attempted this extreme Yang tragedy several times before and after me. However, in the end, I think I’m the only one who survived!”
It was as if Wang Lin was struck by lightning when he heard Bai Wei’s words. He gasped and shock filled his eyes.
“What exactly is this extreme Yin and extreme Yang… that made the All-Seer go through all of this to get it?” Wang Lin looked at Bai Wei. Based on his intuition, he believed 70% of what Bai Wei said.
Bai Wei’s face revealed an ferocious expression and he laughed. “Wang Lin, my plan failed, and I simply can’t compare to Master. He must know that I knew everything all along. I’m merely an ant before him, and no matter how much an ant struggles, I’m unable to reverse fate!
“However I, this ant, this experiment of his, will do something to shock him! I don’t believe he can clearly foresee this idea that suddenly appeared in my head!
“Wang Lin, I know my own situation better than anyone else; it is impossible to save me. However, before I die, I want to take this extreme Yang that has been cultivating for thousands of years, the thing that the All-Seer has been waiting for, and give it to to you. Wang Lin, do you dare to take it?”
Bai Wei looked at Wang Lin, and his voice echoed into the valley. The same words appeared all over the valley and entered Wang Lin’s ears like bolts of thunder.
“Do you dare to take it?”
Wang Lin silently pondered. He couldn’t help but ponder. He didn’t know what it was, but if the All-Seer cared so much about it, then it had to be important to the All-Seer. If he were to take it now, he would definitely face the anger of the All-Seer!
“Time is almost up; Master will come any time. Wang Lin, give me an answer. Do you dare or not!?” Bai Wei waited for a moment and revealed a look of disappointment. He wryly smiled as he shook his head and muttered, “Could Master have calculated all of this as well… Did he calculate that even if I were to offer it to you, you wouldn’t accept? And even if you did, you would give it back to him… Master, have you really never calculated wrong in all these countless years? I don’t believe it, I don’t believe it!!! I don’t believe you have never been wrong once in your life!!”
When Bai Wei’s words entered Wang Lin’s ears, Wang Lin’s eyes started to shine brightly.
“To never predict anything wrong and to always be right, that is the perfect All-Seer. An All-Seer like this has no weakness. If anyone wants to fight him, then before fighting, they are already at a disadvantage! But… if you make him calculate wrong, then what would happen…” Wang Lin’s heart rate rapidly increased.
“The All-Seer calculated that I wouldn’t dare to take it. If I take it, he will definitely have the intent to kill me. This intent won’t be suppressed and he will attempt to kill me on the spot!
“His foresight is shocking; everything is within his calculations!”
To take it or not to take it!
Wang Lin’s eyes were filled with struggle. He had always acted decisively and rarely hesitated, but right now he had to hesitate. After all, taking it meant he would be pushed into a predicament that would be difficult to survive. But if Wang Lin didn’t take it, he knew the perception that the All-Seer could never be wrong would be imprinted in his mind. Although he had never faced off against the All-Seer in a battle, this could be considered a confrontation between them!
If he didn’t take it, then his confidence against the All-Seer once he has to face him will fall greatly. No matter what Wang Lin did, he would have to wonder if it was also all within the All-Seer’s calculations!
If he did this, his dao heart would become timid. What need was there to talk about karma comprehension, source origin energy, or walking down the path of dao? His cultivation would stop and forever live under the shadow of the All-Seer’s omnipotent foresight!
“I’m a heaven-defying cultivator!” Wang Lin’s eyes lit up and he thought about how he defied the heavens in the Demon Spirit Land. How could a mere All-Seer compare to the heavens!?
“Bai Wei has no good intentions. Before dying, he wants to drag me into challenging the All-Seer with him! He wants to see the All-Seer wrong about someone before he dies!”
Wang Lin’s eyes became cold, then he slowly said, “Why would I not dare?”
There was a ray of light flying through space outside of planet Tian Yun. There was a purple-robed man inside the ray of light, and his face was filled with arrogance.
“I wonder what little Lin’s cultivation level is now. Damn it, I didn’t think those women at planet Feng Luan would be so powerful. They bullied me because I had no brother to help me. I’m going to find little Lin and properly deal with those little girls.”
Chapter 968 – One Finger to Pierce the Heavenly Fate
Bai Wei’s eyes narrowed, then he looked at Wang Lin and nodded. He remained silent. As time was almost up, Bai Wei took a deep breath and took a meaningful look at the world around him. Finally, his gaze looked to the east as if he saw his hometown…
His eyes revealed sadness as he slowly closed them. The moment he closed his eyes, the extremely dense Yin energy increased drastically.
This increase was terrifying. In this instant, all of the withered vegetation exploded into dust. Crackling sounds could be heard and ice appeared around the walls of the valley.
A heavenly Yin energy came out from his body and a vortex formed above his head. This vortex was formed by Yin energy, and it grew larger as it rotated!
The Yin energy roared. Wang Lin’s eyes were like lightning as he silently looked at Bai Wei.
The vortex rotated faster and faster until it formed a storm. The entire valley was covered in ice. Even the withered vegetation was all frozen.
Although the restriction at the mouth of the valley was subtle, now it shattered.
If you looked at the valley from outside, you could see the rain falling now. Lightning would occasionally strike down as if the heavens were angry, causing thunderous rumbles.
Large amounts of water poured down and gathered into puddles. As the rain continued to fall, endless ripples appeared in the puddles.
However, in this rainstorm, this valley seemed to be cut off from the outside. It was as if there was an invisible cover blocking out all the rain. The rain was stopped outside the valley and flowed down along this cover.
As the rain became stronger and stronger, you could vaguely see an arc of ghostly light above the valley. This ghostly light was the rain making the barrier around the valley visible!
At this moment, as the Yin energy inside valley became stronger and stronger, not even the cover was able to withstand it anymore. A crack opened up in this cover.
The moment this crack appeared, Yin energy came out. Although it was invisible, it caused a series of heaven-shaking crackling sounds.
Before the rain could fall into the crack that appeared on the cover, it was turned into ice by the Yin energy. As the Yin energy rose up into the sky, an extremely strange scene unfolded!
Wherever the Yin energy passed through, all the raindrops were frozen. From a distance, it looked like a string of pearls that shined brightly whenever lightning flash across the sky.
This didn’t end here. More and more cracks appeared on the cover. Every crack that appeared allowed more Yin energy to escape. As the Yin energy rushed out, even more rain got turned to ice.
A moment later, the cover shattered into pieces. When the cover shattered, large amounts of Yin energy spread out across the land.
At this instant, every raindrop around them turned into ice with the valley as the center. In just a few breaths of time, all of the raindrops had turned to ice.
Wang Lin’s eyes released a strange light. This Yin energy was very powerful. Even with his ancient god body, he found it a bit unbearable and couldn’t help but retreat a few steps.
Sitting before Wang Lin, Bai Wei’s hair moved without any wind. His clothes gave off flapping sounds as if it was being hit by wind. The Yin energy in his body reached a peak and his body was rapidly covered by dark blue ice.
In the blink of an eye, the dark blue ice covered him completely. Then it condensed between his eyebrows, transformed into thorns, and pointed between his eyebrows.
A strange mark appeared between Bai Wei’s eyebrows. This mark was the same one that Wang Lin saw that was formed by the movement of Yin energy inside Bai Wei!
At this moment, this mark flashed a ghostly light. Every time it flashed, Bai Wei would reveal a painful expression and some of the Yin energy in his body would be sucked in by it.
Every time it flashed, the dark blue ice around Bai Wei became thicker. His body slowly assimilated with the ice until they became a part of each other.
As the mark flashed more and more, even more Yin energy was absorbed into it. Soon, the last bit of Yin energy was absorbed by the mark.
His body trembled and everything from his neck and below became ice. The mark between his eyebrows had turned blackish purple, and the Yin energy within it was shocking!
The indescribable pain made Bai Wei let out the last roar in his life. This roar was filled with his dissatisfaction, his hatred for the All-Seer, his sadness and helplessness, and all of his struggles against fate!
Also there was also a glimmer of relief…
Wang Lin seemed to be impacted by this roar. His expression became complex and he took a few more step back. He could understand Bai Wei’s thoughts; it was a sworn defiance, a rebellion against the All-Seer!
It could be said that this was a type of defiance!
Bai Wei’s roar spread like crazy across tens of thousands of kilometers. However, his roar was drowned out by the heavy rain and violent thunder.
“All-Seer, I exchange my life for you to be wrong once. I, Bai Wei, will laugh in the underworld! I’m willing to trade this worthless life of mine to make the All-Seer wrong once!”
As Bai Wei laughed like crazy, the mark that contained all his Yin energy went through a strange change. The endless Yin energy was condensed repeatedly as the vortex rotated, and a thunderous roar came from within it.
In an instant, the vortex formed by the mark reached an extreme, and a golden light appeared in the depths of the vortex. All the Yin energy gathered toward it like crazy.
In an instant, all of the Yin energy disappeared, leaving being a shining, golden dot that floated toward Wang Lin.
Bai Wei’s body was motionless. He had almost lost all of life force and turned into an ice sculpture with a ferocious expression!
An eternal ice sculpture. This ice sculpture gave off a powerful aura of defiance and unwillingness to be controlled by fate!
The golden dot floated toward Wang Lin. He could feel a powerful vitality and extreme heat from this dot!
“A sliver of extreme Yang!” Wang Lin raised his right hand and reached toward this golden dot.
At this moment, all of the ice inside the valley melted rapidly, and soon it was all melted. Green grass quickly regrew and soon this valley was in spring.
Outside the valley, all of the raindrops that were frozen melted and quickly fell. All of the changes that were caused by the Yin energy returned to normal.
The moment Wang Lin’s hand touched the extreme Yang, time was up.
There was a mountain in the Heavenly Fate Sect that was very strange. It looked like a giant trident that was buried underground, and the only thing that remained above ground were the three tips!
Rings of seven different colors gave off bursts of light. The celestial spiritual energy that filled the area made it look like the Celestial Realm.
The All-Seer was sitting at the tip of the middle mountain peak. He wore white and his white hair moved with the wind. Although he was old, it didn’t feel like he was decaying. Instead, it was as if he had become a celestial.
The moment the time was up, he opened his eyes. The moment he opened his eyes, there were large amounts of clouds passing by. What was even more shocking was that the sun and moon reversed in his eyes while the clouds rapidly changed.
It was as if time itself existed within the All-Seer’s eyes!
He calmly looked at the earth. After a long time, he let out a sigh.
“Everyone pursues longevity, to live as long as the world… However, how many people know what this longevity counts as? To live as long as the world… The world has always existed, so who would dare to say they were as old as the world?
“What they pursue is only an illusion, and this is the vision of an ant! I, All-Seer, don’t seek to live as long as the world. I want my fate to become the heavens’ fate. I want my will to become the heavens’ will. I want the heavens’ dao to merge with my dao!”
The All-Seer’s gaze fell into the direction of the distant Ghost Eye City. There was strange light in his eyes and he muttered, “Wang Lin… you dare!”
He didn’t move, he only raised his right hand. His index finger casually pointed forward!
At this instant, a storm was set off just outside of planet Tian Yun. There was a loud rumble and endless origin energy of the world gathered.
All of the origin energy from within tens of thousands of kilometers seemed to have received a call and gathered like crazy.
In almost an instant, a giant finger appeared outside planet Tian Yun. This finger was 10,000 feet long and and 1,000 feet wide. It was transparent, as if it was an ethereal existence.
Endless origin energy gathered at the finger at an unimaginable speed. It was so fast, it was beyond imagination. It was as if this finger was an endless black hole that sucked in all the origin energy.
In an instant, this finger went from ethereal to almost solid; even the fingerprint was clearly visible. The marks on the finger were like mountains and gorges!
It slowly descended toward planet Tian Yun!
This finger was too big, but it wasn’t the finger of an ancient god. It was a spell the All-Seer had created on his own. One finger to pierce the heavenly fate!
Chapter 969 – Approach
The All-Seer was a member of the Alliance’s elder group, so he naturally knew powerful spells. It has to be said that back when the All-Seer was at his peak, even Esteemed Xuan Bao was extremely fearful of him and didn’t dare to carelessly offend the All-Seer.
Although the All-Seer wasn’t the most powerful in the Alliance’s elder group, even the stronger members of the group didn’t want to get on the All-Seer’s bad side!
All of this indirectly explains how powerful the All-Seer was!
However, the All-Seer was very low key and not many outsiders knew of him.
At this moment, the finger that formed outside planet Tian Yun slowly pressed down on the planet.
Although it looked slow, it was extremely fast. A heaven-shaking pressure roared across the sky. The cultivators on planet Tian Yun felt a terrifying majesty descend the world.
Because there was too much origin energy gathered before the finger, an arc appeared before the finger, and it touched planet Tian Yun first.
The entire planet seemed to shake and a huge wave was set off in the atmosphere as if there was powerful force moving within it. This origin energy arrived before the finger. It even caused some of the planet to collapse and everything to become twisted.
A thunderous rumble echoed across the world when the finger landed on the atmosphere. The atmosphere immediately collapsed and seven-colored light spread across the area.
A crack was opened by force by the finger. This crack was still expanding, and it caused the weather to suddenly change.
Looking from the ground up at the sky, it was as if the finger had pierced a hole in the heavens and slowly descended!
It was pointed at the valley thousands of kilometers outside Ghost Eye City!
Before the finger fell, an unimaginable pressure descended and the earth crackled. The expressions of all the cultivators who thought they had achieved something changed, and none of them dared to fly over to look.
when the powerful pressure spread out, their minds trembled. A feeling that the heavens and earth would be destroyed arose from the bottom of their hearts.
Originally, rain covered the sky above Ghost Eye City and the thunder rumbles echoed endlessly. However, at this moment, as the giant finger descended, all the clouds were pushed away. It was like a curtain at the doorway that was pulled apart. Even the might of the heavens seemed to have to make way for the point of this finger.
A thick, dark cloud didn’t dodge fast enough and was touched by the ripples before the finger. It exploded in an instant and brightened up the sky with a large amount of lightning.
These lightning bolts moved along with these ripples and diffused across the sky. They formed a very bright and unforgettably gorgeous scene in everyone’s eyes!
Violent thunder echoed across the sky. As the giant finger descended, it was as if the sky was going to collapse.
Wang Lin stood inside the valley and looked at the finger slowly descending from the sky with a gloomy expression. He could clearly feel the aura coming from the finger, it was the All-Seer!
“What kind of spell is this!?” Wang Lin held the extreme Yang in his hand. The moment it fell into his hand, he felt the heaven defying bead inside his origin soul tremble.
With no time to think about the change to the heaven defying bead, Wang Lin put the extreme Yang into his bag and then stared at the giant finger descending from the sky.
This finger was too big. It gave off a seven-colored glow and caused the heavens and earth to tremble endlessly. Cracks appeared in space as it descended toward Wang Lin.
An unimaginable pressure descended from the sky and gathered around Wang Lin.
“The All-Seer!” Wang Lin frowned with a gloomy expression. Then his right hand touched his bag and an item appeared in his hand. This was something Qing Shui gave him, a crystal to use Summon the Rain!
Back then, Qing Shui said that there were three uses of Summon the Rain sealed inside. The Summon the Rain cast by Qing Shui would not be ordinary. Wang Lin had not used it yet so he could keep it as an ace to keep himself alive!
However, this was the time to use it!
The giant fingered slowly descended and charged toward Wang Lin. A loud rumble echoed, and the pressure from its descent caused the earth to shatter once more!
Even Ghost Eye City was affected. Large sections of its walls fell and cries came from the city.
At this moment, there was a planet far away from planet Tian Yun, but it was still within the influence of planet Tian Yu. It was a cultivation planet called Da Lou!
There was only one sect on this planet, and this sect was called the Da Lou Sword Sect!
The Da Lou Sword Sect occupied a large part of the planet and covered hundreds of thousands of kilometers. It was far larger than the Heavenly Fate Sect. Ling Tianhou was willing to pay the price when setting up the Da Lou Sword Sect, so its scale was extremely large.
Mountains filled with spiritual energy were everywhere in the Da Lou Sword Sect. There were numerous pavilions and there were monumental towers at every certain amount of distance! There were a total of 999 towers! It was as if they were set up to form a giant formation!
There was a tower among them that was very unique in both appearance and height. This tower was extremely tall, at least 10 times the height of the other towers!
Its height seemed to pierce into the sky. Even if you were very far, you could still feel the colossal pressure of this tower!
At the top of this tower sat the Sword Saint Ling Tianhou. The four origin swords flashed as they formed a mouth and rotated around him.
Fierce sword intent spread out from the tower, causing planet Da Lou to be filled with shocking sword intent!
“Interesting! Interesting!” Ling Tianhou suddenly opened his eyes, and there was a flash of coldness within them. There was a smile on his face.
“How many times has the teacher betrayed the student? This old man loves watching these moments of the All-Seer the most… However, this Wang Lin is a member of the Vermillion Bird Series. Even the elders of the Alliance have to ponder when acting against a member of the Vermillion Bird Series. After all. no one is willing to provoke the former overlord of the Brilliant Void Star System, the Four Divine Sect!”
“Forget it. Wang Lin, if you can withstand one spell from and not die, this old man will help you!” Ling Tianhou smiled. His favorite thing to do was cause trouble for the All-Seer.
