Chapter 600 - Celestial Ascension Fruit

At this moment in the black tower located in the ancient battleground, two ghostly lights suddenly lit up inside the helmet on the top floor of the tower.

"He has just reached the Ascendant stage, so his origin energy hasn't completely fused with his body yet. It will take him 49 days to complete this process, and this window is something I have waited 10 years for…"

The ghostly light inside the armor flashed and then thundering roars came from outside the black tower. At this moment, a giant, black vortex suddenly appeared in the sky.

This vortex was too large. When it spun, it was as if it could absorb everything in the world. The sky changed color and even the countless souls in the ancient battleground began to tremble.

The ghostly light from the tower shined brightly as a powerful divine sense spread out from the tower and quickly covered the entire ancient battleground. The ground at some parts of the battleground loosened and soon several black bones flew out from underground into the air.

These small bones quickly fused in the sky and formed a black bone arm.

The black bone arm slowly flew toward the tower and stopped below the vortex.

"I haven't gathered much power, so I can't casually waste it. Also, his current location is one of the places I don't wish to go!" The ghostly light from the armor flashed again and one arm from the armor broke off. It gave off a burst of demonic flame before flying out of the tower and straight toward the bone arm.

The moment the armor touched the withered arm, it immediately attached itself to it. The moment the armor was attached, the arm became completely different than before as powerful bursts of demonic spiritual energy filled it.

"Go, bring back the origin energy!" The arm trembled before disappearing into the vortex.

"Only Ascendant cultivators have origin energy inside their bodies. Too bad I'm too seriously injured to pull the origin energy out of cultivators who have already integrated the origin energy into their body from this far away. I can only choose to attack those who just made a breakthrough to steal their origin energy." The ghostly light from the armor that was now missing an arm guard gradually dimmed until it finally went out.

Wang Lin was sitting in the lotus position inside the cave. He let out a breath of foul air and stood up. He had been sitting there for 10 years, so there were a lot of popping sounds before his body returned to normal.

After he loosened his body, his expression suddenly changed and he looked up into the ceiling of the celestial cave. At this moment, a black vortex silently appeared!

"This is…" Wang Lin's eyes narrowed. He had been in this cave for a very long time and had never seen this vortex before. The timing of this vortex was too good; it appeared right after he reached the Ascendant stage!

Wang Lin had a cautious nature, so when he saw the vortex appear, he immediately dashed for the gate of the cave.

Just as he moved, the vortex suddenly sped up and thus increased its size. Wang Lin's eyes became cold as he slapped his bag of holding and without any hesitation took out the cave token. His hand formed a seal, and soon his body became faint and was about to disappear.

At this moment, a black bone arm wearing armor came out from the vortex and viciously swiped at Wang Lin!

This swipe caused Wang Lin's disappearing figure to tremble, but then he instantly disappeared.

The black bone arm paused for a moment before going back into the vortex, and the vortex disappeared.

There was a distortion in the sky above an endless plain in the Fire Demon Country, and Wang Lin stepped out of it!

His expression was gloomy. Anyone who came across such a strange scene right as they reached the Ascendant stage wouldn't feel happy.

At the moment he used the token to teleport away, the arm interfered with the teleportation and caused a change. He spread out his divine sense and found that this place was completely foreign to him.

Just at this moment, a black dot appeared in the sky. This black dot spun at an unimaginable speed and in almost an instant turned into that giant vortex.

The vortex appeared in complete silence; even divine sense wasn't able to detect its appearance ahead of time. It was as if there was nowhere the vortex didn't exist.

Wang Lin's expression was gloomy as he stared at the vortex. This time he didn't run; he wanted to see how much power that arm inside the vortex had!

Almost at the moment the vortex appeared, the armored bone arm came out and reached toward Wang Lin!

No wind or clouds moved with this grab. There were no fluctuations showing signs of spells being used; this grab was almost as if a mortal was waving his arm.

Wang Lin frowned slightly, then he raised his right hand and for the first time he used the Finger of Death at the Ascendant stage. The black light was 10 times larger than before, and there were rings of ripples inside it!

The black light charged out like thunder and landed on the bone arm. At this moment, an astonishing amount of demonic spiritual energy came out from the armor. This demonic spiritual energy was also solid and immediately blocked the Finger of Death.

However, the demonic spiritual energy underestimated Wang Lin's Finger of Death. Perhaps if Wang Lin wasn't at the Ascendant stage, then the Finger of Death would immediately have shattered when facing this demonic spiritual energy, but now Wang Lin was using Ascendent level cultivation to activate the Finger of Death. Although the black light was stopped, the death energy within couldn't be stopped. At the moment the demonic spiritual energy and death energy collided, the demonic spiritual energy dissipated as if it had been absorbed by the death energy.

All of this happened in an instant.

Just as Wang Lin sent out the Finger of Death, he immediately noticed an invisible force coming at him. This force was like a gentle wind, but at the moment it landed on his body, his expression changed greatly!

He immediately noticed that his newly formed Ascendant origin soul was about to be blown away with this wind-like invisible force!

Even his mind wasn't able to resist at all, and even his right hand slowly lowered. His origin soul gradually drifted from his body and was about to leave.

But when a sleepy feeling appeared inside his body, Wang Lin's eyes became cold. Because his origin soul was about to leave his body, his body had stiffened and he was rapidly losing consciousness.

At this moment, he didn't panic and instead became filled with killing intent!

He was Wang Lin. He even dared to defy the heavens, he dared to even kill the heavens, so how could he be bewitched by this mere spell? Wang Lin had a heart of slaughter, and at this moment, his heart of slaughter and his killing intent collided, resulting in a powerful slaughter aura!

A low roar came from his mouth, and monstrous slaughter aura came out from his eyes!

Under the power of this slaughter aura, his origin soul that was already halfway out of his body was forced back in. After his origin soul returned, Wang Lin coldly looked at the arm.

"No matter who you are, don't mess with me…" Wang Lin took a step back, and at the same time, he used several teleport spells at once. In the blink of an eye, he disappeared.

The bone arm wasn't scary at all; what was scary was that wrist guard. The Finger of Death Wang Lin used to scout the situation allowed him to see through the wrist guard. There were many mysterious people in the demon spirit land. Wang Lin had just reached the Ascendant stage and he required a few days for his origin soul to completely fuse, so he didn't want to get into too much trouble right now.

At the moment Wang Lin left, a soft exclamation came from the black tower in the ancient battleground.

"No wonder he is a heaven-defying cultivator; he was able to forcibly resist my Heavenly Demon Wind with his heart of slaughter! But the better you perform, the more interested I am in your origin energy! In the Demon Spirit Land, those people that cultivate the way of the ancient demon can't form origin energy. Origin energy only appears when you cultivators reach the Ascendant stage. In these countless years, almost every cultivator who reached the Ascendant in this Demon Spirit Land had their origin energy devoured by me… You will be no exception!"

Wang Lin reappeared after teleporting. This place was a desolate area without any mountains or water. There were only withered trees everywhere. However, his eyes immediately narrowed as he noticed some restrictions in the distance.

"What the hell was that arm!?" Wang Lin frowned as he flew toward the restrictions in the distance.

Soon he arrived at the place the restrictions were located. This place was even more desolate than the one before. The ground here was filled with cracks due to how dry it was, and there was nothing abnormal about this place.

The restrictions protecting this place weren't intricate, but they won in terms of quality. There was no less than 1,000 restrictions here, and they were all interlinked, so activating one of the restrictions meant activating them all.

Although it was rough, it was still effective. Even a demon general would find it difficult to enter by force. Even if they could, it would take time to do so.

Wang Lin spread out his divine sense. With his cultivation and knowledge of restrictions, these restrictions didn't interest him. He was not interested in what was inside and was about to leave when the black vortex suddenly appeared, causing Wang Lin's eyes to narrow.

"It's like a ghost haunting me!" Wang Lin's eyebrows furrowed hard and his eyes became even colder. This black vortex kept appearing before him, and this made a hint of killing intent appear inside Wang Lin's heart. He let out a cold snort and quickly sank directly into the countless restrictions.

With Wang Lin's understanding of restrictions, he could break restrictions at the same level as the ones inside the celestial cave, so the restrictions before him presented no challenge. With just a glance, countless deductions flashed through his eyes. Then his body quickly disappeared into the restrictions.

The function of these restrictions, aside from preventing outsiders from entering, was also to create illusions to hide what was inside. However, Wang Lin had broken countless restrictions, so he was able to easily move through them without activating them. After going through the restrictions, the scene before him became vastly different from what he saw outside.

This place was still a plain, but it had been artificially divided into plots of land and emitted a strange fragrance.

"Eh?" Wang Lin was surprised, as he wasn't expecting something like this. What was more surprising was there was only one thing being grown here!

"Celestial Ascension Fruit…" Wang Lin's expression became a bit strange.

At this moment, the surrounding restrictions began to collapse as the black bone forced itself through the countless restrictions and reached in.

Chapter 601 - One Drop

The Celestial Ascension Fruit isn't a rare fruit. Although it isn't common, it is even possible to get it on planet Suzaku.

These fruits are only the size of a baby's fist, and they are completely purple and give off a strange fragrance. If a person were to eat one, they would become excited and feel extreme pleasures. This is why this fruit is called Celestial Ascension Fruit.

If a mortal were to eat one, they would become addicted, but it wouldn't affect a cultivator much. However, there are cultivators who enjoy eating the fruit and losing themselves in that intoxicating feeling.

In the mortal world, only the rich and powerful can get Celestial Ascension Fruits from cultivators after paying a heavy price. Then they can immerse themselves in the intoxicating feeling like they have become celestials themselves.

Wang Lin looked at the plain. It looked like this plain was endless, and it was filled with Celestial Ascension Fruits.

But Wang Lin wasn't interested in the fruits. At this moment, the armored bone arm broke through the restrictions and arrived here. Thick demonic spiritual energy was released from the armored bone arm and surrounded the area.

Wang Lin's eyes became cold as he stared at the arm. Then his right hand touched his bag of holding and the celestial sword appeared in his hand.

Xu Liguo quickly let out a roar. Ever since his rebellion failed, he had always been very careful. Now that Wang Lin had taken out the celestial sword, he decided that he would definitely achieve some merit today!

He has followed Wang Lin for many years and was very familiar with Wang Lin's personality. He thought to himself, "As longs I achieve some merits, this fiend won't think about what happened back then."

Sword hymns came from the celestial sword. A sword was a proud weapon above all other weapons. However, at this moment, the sword hymn that came out contained a dirty meaning.

After the black bone arm appeared, it clawed at Wang Lin once more, and the Heavenly Demon Wind gently blew toward him.

Wang Lin was already prepared; his eyes turned turn cold and his heart of slaughter appeared. He quickly swung the celestial sword to send out a ray of sword energy, and the celestial sword itself flew out after the sword energy in the form of a sword dragon.

Under Xu Liguo's control, the celestial sword swept toward the bone arm in an imposing manner and became entangled in a battle with the arm.

The bone arm didn't even seem to care about the celestial sword and reached out to grab the sword. However, at the moment the arm touched the celestial sword, it released violent sizzling sounds like a piece of ice that had just touched hot iron.

Xu Liguo began to laugh proudly. He was about to break free and get another hit off at the bone arm; however, thick demonic spiritual energy came out from the wrist guard and entered the celestial sword.

Xu Liguo was startled and wanted to break free, but the bone arm was like a pair of metal pliers that had a tight hold on the sword.

Wang Lin coldly looked at everything before him. At the moment that thick demonic spiritual energy was released, Wang Lin raised his right index finger and softly said, "Demonic Finger!"

What was changed this time wasn't his own celestial spiritual energy, but the demonic spiritual energy that was released. Using his Ascendant level cultivation, Wang Lin could transform the forces of the heavens and earth. It was different from the death aura that the Finger of Death gave, this was demonic spiritual energy.

At this moment, Wang Lin's right index finger was like a huge vortex, as all of the demonic spiritual energy rushed toward his finger. Soon, a ray of black light appeared at Wang Lin's fingertip.

This black light seemed to be able to devour light, and at the moment it appeared, it was surrounded by thick demonic spiritual energy. With a flick of his finger, the black light charged toward the bone arm.

Its speed was too quick, so it landed on the bone arm in an instant. After a series of cracking sounds, the bone arm shattered and Xu Liguo quickly moved the sword away.

At the moment the bone arm shattered, a symbol flashed on the wrist guard. Then the shattered black bone quickly spread, forming a black halo that was 10,000 feet wide.

Demonic spiritual energy filled this 10,000 foot area, creating a prison!

Then more symbols appeared on the wrist guard and began to emit the sound of a bell ringing. This sound came from the wrist guard, but it seemed to come from the heavens as it echoed within this 10,000 foot area.

All of this happened in an instant. This sound was a hundred times stronger than the Heavenly Demon Wind, so the clarity Wang Lin managed to maintain with his slaughter heart immediately showed signs of weakening.

Wang Lin's expression was gloomy, and with one step he arrived in the air. His hand formed a seal before turning into a palm that slammed down on the wrist guard.

At the moment his palm touched the wrist guard, a monstrous demonic flame burst out from the wrist guard. This demonic flame formed a fist-sized shadow. This shadow had a single horn and was completely black. After it appeared, it revealed a smile of contempt before suddenly opening its mouth and laughing loudly!

Wang Lin's origin soul shook, but his eyes became even colder. His right hand didn't stop and he pressed down on the wrist guard.

At this moment, the black shadow from the wrist guard let out another crazy laugh. This time the sound was several times more intense than before.

This intense sound wave created sonic booms that echoed between Wang Lin and the wrist guard.

The sonic booms were only secondary; the real attack was aimed at his origin soul. Thanks to this demonic laugh, Wang Lin's origin soul began to leave his body once more.

And his heart of slaughter was about to collapse!

The shadow on the wrist guard revealed a dark grin and laughed like crazy once more!

Wang Lin bit the tip of his tongue. Rather than retreating, he charged forward and grabbed the wrist guard. Then the celestial spiritual energy inside his body surged into the wrist guard like crazy.

At the moment his celestial spiritual energy entered the wrist guard, the demonic laugh disappeared. However, the black shadow also disappeared and entered Wang Lin's body through his right hand. It then turned into waves of demonic spiritual energy that charged at his origin soul.

The Demonic Dance Of Confusion!

Wang Lin's right hand clutched the wrist guard as he quickly fell from the sky, then he sat down in the lotus position on the ground. The demonic spiritual energy moved through his meridians and created bursts of illusions that directly shook his origin soul.

Wang Lin's eyes revealed a ghostly light as he looked at all the Celestial Ascension Fruits around him. Without any hesitation, he waved his hand and all of the Celestial Ascension Fruits within 10,000 feet flew off the branches and into the sky.

There was no less than 10,000 of these fruits. It was as if a small portion of the sky was covered by these purple fruits.

At this moment, the demonic spiritual energy inside him was luring his origin soul to fly out of his body.

Wang Lin's face was gloomy as he closed his hand. Suddenly, all of the fruits in the sky shattered and their juices were extracted. Then the juices were all gathered together before they were condensed, condensed, and condensed again!

In the blink of an eye, the juices of more than 10,000 Celestial Ascension Fruits was condensed into one drop!

A drop of blood-red liquid!

Looking at this drop of blood-red liquid, Wang Lin didn't hesitate to grab it and throw it into his mouth.

At the moment the liquid entered his mouth, Wang Lin's entire body shook. The mysterious feeling of the Celestial Ascension Fruit increased countless fold and exploded inside Wang Lin's mind with a thunderous roar.

Under this powerful stimulation, Wang Lin's mind was at its peak level of excitement. He suppressed his excitement and used it as power for his body. At this moment, his origin soul, which was about to be lured out by the demonic spiritual energy, suddenly stopped!

Wang Lin's eyes were bloodshot and the veins on his head were bulging as if he was enduring great pain.

"Scram!"

Wang Lin let out a low roar. This sound was like a thunderous roar that echoed across the land. Then a black shadow was forced out of his body through his right hand!

However, this black shadow was extremely stubborn. When it was half forced out, it began to laugh and struggled to re-enter Wang Lin's body.

Wang Lin's expression was fierce as the mysterious feeling from the Celestial Ascension Fruit filled his body. This gave his body unimaginable power, and while he had to endure pain, it also gave him intense pleasure!

The pain and pleasure were both suppressed by him. The suppression of these two feelings created an unimaginable explosive force!

"Scram!!!"

Wang Lin suddenly raised his head and his hand. Then a force exploded from his body and the black shadow was forced out of his body!

At the moment the black shadow was pushed out and sent flying into the air, Wang Lin charged toward it with bloodshot eyes. He grabbed the black shadow and then the celestial spiritual energy from his body surged out like crazy and entered the black shadow.

The black shadow let out miserable groan as it collapsed. It turned into fine, silky strings as it escaped from Wang Lin's hand before reforming itself 100 feet from Wang Lin and giving Wang Lin a vicious stare.

But Wang Lin completely ignored that gaze. At this moment, the feeling from the fruits was about to explode. Still under the fruits' influence, Wang Lin took a step forward and without any hesitation pointed his pinky at the black shadow!

Underworld Finger!

He used his Ascendant level cultivation to bring out the Underworld Finger. The finger pointed at the underworld to activate the domain inside Wang Lin's origin soul. This finger contained the life and death domain, it contained all of Wang Lin's will!

This finger reached its peak under the effect of the Celestial Ascension Fruit!

This finger caused the world to change colors!

This Underworld Finger was a spell infinitely close to a low quality celestial spell, so a large portion of the sky began to collapse and shatter. This one finger was life and death!

The shadow with a horn revealed a look of disbelief. It let out a scream and wanted to flee, but the finger arrived!

The black shadow's body paused and immediately collapsed!

An angry roar came from the armor inside the black tower located inside the ancient battleground. Then a powerful will rushed out and merged with the void.

After withdrawing that finger, the restriction created by the demonic spiritual energy within 10,000 feet disappeared.

Wang Lin's right hand was still gripping the wrist guard. Crazy amounts of demonic spiritual energy came from the wrist guard as it tried to break free, but Wang Lin's right hand held it tightly. He spat out a mouthful of origin energy and it fell on the wrist guard. Then the origin energy turned into a spiderweb and sealed the wrist guard.

Then he casually put the wrist guard inside his bag of holding. Wang Lin's eyes were still red, as the effect of the Celestial Ascension Fruit wasn't over. An intense battle intent had been born inside Wang Lin's body!

This battle intent was extremely powerful, and it was impossible to suppress. Wang Lin waved his right hand and the celestial sword flew back and landed in his hand. At this moment, Xu Liguo didn't dare to speak, as the current Wang Lin made his heart tremble.

Chapter 602 - Crazy Battle Intent

Wang Lin's eyes were completely red as he looked at the ground below him. The amount of Celestial Ascension Fruits he had absorbed was only 1/10th of all the fruits here. He reached out toward the ground with his early stage Ascendant cultivation and caused the ground to tremble! Then countless fruits flew off the trees and went toward him.

Nearly 100,000 Celestial Ascension Fruits were stored away inside his bag of holding. At this moment, Wang Lin could no longer suppress the battle and killing intent in his heart. He let out a roar and was about to leave.

But just at this moment, a cold snort filled with anger came from the void.

It landed directly inside Wang Lin's mind!

Wang Lin's mind trembled and then he coughed out a mouthful of blood and fell from the sky. After he landed, his head jerked toward the sky and his eyes revealed powerful killing and battle intent!

He couldn't help but be injured. On a normal day, if Wang Lin's mind was injured like that by just a cold snort, he would immediately escape. However, he was different right now, and there was a hint of madness in his eyes!

Not only did the injury in his body not decrease his battle intent, it actually made him even more crazy!

He slapped his bag of holding and devoured a large amount of pills. With one step, he charged out. Although he was crazy, his consciousness was still there. When the cold snort came, he vaguely felt where it came from and directly charged there.

"Kill!" The only thought in Wang Lin's mind was to kill!

The killing intent that was removed when he turned into a mortal exploded once more thanks to the stimulation of the Celestial Ascension Fruit!

The fiend that made the Sea of Greed and Zhao tremble had awakened!

Wang Lin's body moved like a flaming meteor across the sky, and he charged directly at the direction where he vaguely felt that cold snort come from

Another cold snort came from the tower in the ancient battleground. This snort contained disdain and killing intent.

The cold snort arrived and landed on Wang Lin, causing him to cough out another large mouthful of blood. His eyes became even more crazy as he slapped his bag of holding and almost 100,000 Celestial Ascension Fruits surrounded him.

Without any hesitation, Wang Lin's hand reached out and the 100,000 fruits all collapsed one by one. The juices condensed and refined until the 100,000 fruits were condensed into just one drop!

Wang Lin looked at the demonically red liquid that could cause a person to collapse and swallowed it.

The moment he swallowed that demonically red liquid, Wang Lin felt like his body was about to explode, and the speed at which his blood was circulating through his body reached its limit!

His battle intent and madness reached an unprecedented degree at this moment.

Then he slapped his bag of holding and a wine jug appeared in his hand. This was the wine jug that he got at the cave, and it contained 10 drops of celestial liquid!

As soon as he brought out the wine jug, he drank four drops!

After the celestial liquid entered his body, celestial spiritual energy moved through his meridians like raging thunder. An unimaginable amount of celestial spiritual energy moved inside his body to the point where he might not be able to handle it! If it wasn't for the fact that his meridians were strengthened when he entered the Ascendant stage and were refined by the ancient demon, he definitely wouldn't have been able to bear this!

Wang Lin seemed to have gone crazy. His hair started flowing in the air and he charged out like a madman.

 これは家です!本当に驚きです.Iconike

 

 

A ghostly light flashed within the armor inside the black tower and a divine message echoed out.

"Could he have gone crazy?! If he really comes here and damages the armor I'm in… He won't be able to make it here!"

A ray of killing intent came out from the tower and disappeared into the void.

This strand of killing intent suddenly locked onto Wang Lin from within the void!

The celestial spiritual energy was surging through Wang Lin's body when the killing intent arrived. His body trembled, but the battle intent in his eyes became even stronger. With a roar, the celestial spiritual energy inside his body seemed to explode, causing his body to move even faster!

At this moment, Wang Lin was like a flame. Every time the person inside the black tower tried to extinguish the flame, it would ignite once more.

It wasn't that he wasn't injured anymore; on the contrary, he was seriously injured from the continuous attacks from the person inside the black tower. However, due to the Celestial Ascension Fruit, the stimulation in his origin soul was not going to go away any time soon unless he died!

Under this stimulation, no matter how serious his injuries were, he wouldn't care!

The celestial spiritual energy surged even faster thanks to the effect of those four drops of celestial liquid!

At this moment, there was only one thought in Wang Lin's mind, and that was "Kill!"

The divine sense inside the tower became even more angry and continued to attack. If it was anyone else, they would have already died, but thanks to the strange cooperation of the Celestial Ascension Fruit and celestial liquid, Wang Lin wasn't dead!

Normally his flesh would have died long ago and his origin soul would have collapsed. However, thanks to the effect of the Celestial Ascension Fruit, his origin soul didn't collapse! Thanks to the surge of celestial spiritual energy from the celestial liquid, his body didn't break!

"Die!" The divine sense showed a hint of fear. Given Wang Lin's current state, even the person inside the black tower couldn't help but feel like something bad was coming.

From his point of view, this Wang Lin had really gone crazy!

"If I knew it was going to be like this, I would not have tried to devour him!"

The death intent inside the divine sense pierced through the void and landed on Wang Lin!

Wang Lin coughed out a large mouthful of blood. Although his eyes dimmed a bit, it was soon replaced with killing and battle intent!

As Wang Lin flew, a beast-like roar came out of his throat. "Finger of Death…"

The finger of death absorbs the life force others, causing the living to wither and give their power to it!

At this moment, Wang Lin used this power in this crazed state. An aura of death began to spread out from his body and fused with the world.

As he floated in the air, all of the vegetation under him withered. As he flew across the sky, the withering on the earth spread, and vegetation, birds, and beasts all died.

This place looked like hell! It was very strange yet extremely shocking!

Their deaths created strands of white gas that caught up to Wang Lin and entered his body. These strands of white gas quickly helped repair Wang Lin's damaged body and origin soul.

In the Fire Demon Country, Zi Shu was sitting on a horse. He was wearing a blue robe and had a giant sword on his back, and his eyes looked coldly into the distance. Behind him were 30,000 demon soldiers. The Da Lou Sword Sect's 12 Swords had all scattered, and he was one of them. His cultivation was at the peak of the late stage of Soul Transformation. He had successfully gotten the position of chief commander and was leading his demon soldiers to meet his fellow brothers!

As they moved, his expression suddenly changed when he saw a meteor blazing across the sky. His eyes narrowed to look at it carefully and then his expression immediately changed.

"Ascendant cultivator!"

He quickly lowered his head and ordered his demon soldiers to back up, as he was unwilling to provoke this Ascendant cultivator. He also saw that this Ascendant cultivator's state of mind seemed a bit crazy.

What made him even more terrified was that everywhere that person went, the earth under him would completely wither and be absorbed. Fortunately, they weren't on the same path, or else Zi Shu would have immediately chosen to go into another direction and stay far away from this person.

Wang Lin didn't even notice the demon soldiers; right now the only things in his eyes were battle and kill!

At this moment, the cold snort carrying killing intent and a hint of anxiety came again. This time it was even stronger, causing Wang Lin's body to tremble and cough out another mouthful of blood.

His body was about to be destroyed and his origin soul was about to dissipate. However, all of the life force he had absorbed on the way here was slowly nourishing his body and origin soul, allowing them to slowly recover!

Zi Shu stared at Wang Lin in the sky. When he saw Wang Lin cough out blood, his eyes suddenly lit up!

"This person must be seriously injured. Although he has a strong aura, for him to cough out blood while just flying shows just how injured he is! Since this person has reached the Ascendant stage, he must have many magic treasures and even some good techniques. More importantly, if I can refine his origin soul and feed it to my sword spirit, it will increase the power of my sword spirit greatly!"

A hint of killing intent appeared in Zi Shu's eyes, but it soon dimmed. "This person is an Ascendant cultivator after all… But if I let this opportunity pass, who knows when I'll meet another seriously injured Ascendant cultivator… Lets do it!" Zi Shu's eyes lit up once more.

"Kill!" Zi Zhu's body turned into a shadow and charged directly toward Wang Lin. The demon soldiers behind him heard the order and quickly began laying down the formation!

A killing intent locked onto Wang Lin!

Wang Lin's eyes were filled with killing intent, so he was very sensitive to killing intent. He turned his head and saw the 30,000 demon soldiers on the ground and Zi Shu, who was charging at him!

He revealed a grim smile, then his body moved and charged toward Zi Shu. He was simply too fast and arrived next to Zi Shu's body in an instant.

Zi Shu's expression changed greatly. He expected this person to run, not charge at him while seriously injured. He let out a snort before his hand formed a seal and the large sword on his back flew out.

At the moment the large sword flew out, Wang Lin appeared. He grabbed the large sword with his right hand and threw it behind him. Then at the same time, he passed right beside Zi Shu.

At the Wang Lion passed by Zi Shu, he softly tapped Zi Shu's shoulder!

Zi Shu trembled and his body immediately withered along with his origin soul. In the blink of an eye, a life seal was formed, and it flew toward Wang Lin.

Wang Lin's didn't stop at all and charged into the 30,000 demon soldiers on the ground. A mad slaughter began! Blood stained the earth and souls filled the sky!

Strands of life seals continued to appear and enter his body! Half an incense stick of time later, the ground was covered in blood. After it was over, Wang Lin flew out and charged into the distance.

He now had 30,000 life seals, each of which carried endless vitality. As each mark disappeared, his body recovered a bit. The life seals were quickly dissipating, but his body was also quickly recovering.

The anger of the divine sense inside the black tower in the ancient battleground became even stronger.

"This person absorbed a large number of Celestial Ascension fruits. Under the effect of the fruit, he isn't even afraid of death!

"Many of my attacks should have killed him, but instead of dying, his battle intent became even stronger.

"That's not even the important part. This person has a spell that allows him to absorb life from all sorts of lifeforms, allowing his injuries to recover at a rapid pace! If this continues, he will arrive here one day…"

A very rare feeling of regret appeared in the divine sense inside the black armor.

Chapter 603 - There is Killing Intent…

At the moment Wang Lin left, Zi Shu's body was already on the ground. It had completely withered and was left without a trace of vitality, but there was a faint, golden light flashing on his forehead.

Zi Shu's origin soul had already collapsed, so his body fell from the sky.

The difference between him and Wang Lin was too big; he couldn't even use the sword energy that his master gifted him before he died.

Wang Lin's heart carried a fierce madness, and the celestial spiritual energy inside his body moved like surging waves between his meridians and origin soul. Adding on the stimulation from the fruit, he was like a war god carrying monstrous killing intent.

His eyes were bloodshot as he took a step forward in the air. There were rumbling echoes across the air as if his steps were shattering the sky. He moved rapidly across the air with these large strides.

He was still far away from the location of the ancient battleground. Wang Lin's eyes were bloodshot as he walked across the sky, attracting the attention of a lot of people inside the Demon Spirit Land.

Among these people were cultivators and the demon generals of the Fire Demon Country. As long as they didn't provoke Wang Lin, he ignored them, but at the moment they had any killing intent toward Wang Lin, he would immediately be able to detect them due to his current state.

Anyone who had killing intent would be killed by Wang Lin without any hesitation!

There was a private planet far away from planet Tian Yun called planet Mo. This planet belonged to someone called Mo Ancestor. His cultivation had reached Illusory Yin of the Yin and Yang stage.

This time, with his current cultivation, he lost the qualification to enter the Demon Spirit Land. However, of his three disciples, aside from the head disciple, the other two both entered.

At this moment two youths wearing grey robes were flying across the sky in the Fire Demon Country. These two were the two direct disciples of the Mo Ancestor!

As they flew, one of their eyes suddenly lit up. He looked into the distance and could clearly feel that there seemed to be a primal beast emitting unimaginable killing intent and that it was coming toward their direction.

This person's expression suddenly changed and he yelled, "Junior Brother, quickly retreat!" With that, the two of them quickly scattered to the sides, and right after they did so, a meteor-like figure passed by.

The figure passed by them.

"Ascendant!" This person's pupils shrank.

"Senior Brother, he… he seems to be injured!" The person's junior brother suddenly stared at the figure filled with killing intent gradually moving away and suddenly sent a voice transmission. "An Ascendant cultivator must have a lot of treasure on him. If we can obtain his demon crystal…"

The senior brother's eyes narrowed and he hesitated.

"Senior Brother, both of us are at the late stage of Soul Transformation. Although our chances aren't great, with the two of us against an injured Ascendant cultivator, and if we use magical treasures…"

Just as the two of them were communicating with each other, Wang Lin suddenly stopped. He turned around, looked behind him with his bloodshot eyes, and muttered, "There is killing intent…"

He suddenly turned around and charged toward those two like a bolt of lightning!

When the two of them saw Wang Lin turn around, their expressions quickly changed and they began to retreat. However, Wang Lin's speed was too fast, so in the blink of an eye, he arrived next to the junior brother and extended his finger!

The youth's expression changed greatly and was aghast at the situation. He looked at Wang Lin's gaze and was startled; this gaze was too terrifying!

Wang Lin's finger made the youth feel like it was completely irresistible, as if this finger represented the heavens!

This finger landed on his forehead at an unimaginable speed. This youth let out a miserable groan before his body instantaneously withered and his origin soul collapsed. The shattered origin soul and essence of his body was turned into slaughter energy, then that strand of slaughter energy left his body and flew to Wang Lin.

This all happened too fast! So fast that the senior brother wasn't able to react at all. By the time he awakened from the shock, his body shivered. Without any hesitation, he began to teleport and his body stepped into the void.

Wang Lin took a step forward, streaked through the sky, and his right hand reached out. His finger seemed to have pierced through the void and forcibly pulled the young man out!

The young man's face was pale as he quickly said, "I'm Mo Ancestor's…" Without waiting for him to finish speaking, Wang Lin's hand tightened. This person's body suddenly collapsed into pieces of flesh that fell to the ground.

His life force turned into grey gas and flew toward Wang Lin.

After killing the two of them, Wang Lin's eyes became even more red, and the battle intent became even stronger. Then his body suddenly jerked and he charged into the distance.

As Wang Lin flew, the earth continued to wither. Every living thing died, whether it was vegetation or animals. All of them were killed and used to nourish Wang Lin's body.

He seemed to come from hell as he devoured all life!

Wang Lin flew almost in a straight line across the Fire Demon Country, and everything along this line withered!

A large amount of death was left behind as Wang Lin passed through. This was a kind of humiliation and provocation for a country. Dozens of demon generals were sent out to encircle and suppress this devil cultivator!

The location of his encirclement was located near the border of the Fire Demon Country and Sky Demon Country. This place was called the Million Demon Mountain!

Thick fog that never dissipated covered the Million Demon Mountain. There were two cities near the Millon Demon Mountains with one on each side. One was the Fire Demon Country's Leisure Sky City and the other was the Sky Demon Country's Melting Fire City.

At this moment, more than 100,000 demon soldiers were prepared in Leisure Sky City and more than 10 demon generals were looking at the distance.

Among the demon generals, there was one person of a different rank. This person was a middle-aged man, and his expression was gloomy.

"Killing this cultivator will not be difficult for us. This time the Vice Commander-in-Chief is with us, so it will be even easier." A man next to the middle-aged man smiled. Although he was smiling, he was still showing respect.

The next demon general laughed. "That's right. With the Vice Commander-in-Chief here, we can turn that cultivator into ashes in an instant!"

The middle-aged man calmly said, "All of you, finish this battle quickly, and once you guys kill that cultivator, I'll be leaving." Although his expression was gloomy, there was still a hint of pride in his eyes. As a vice commander-in-chief, his status was very high, and he would normally not leave the capital for a mere cultivator.

He was originally going to go to the Sky Demon Country for a personal matter, but when he arrived, he received orders from the Demon Emperor to stay here for a few days to lead the demon generals in a fight against a cultivator.

He was quite helpless about this arrangement. In his opinion, there was no need to send this many people to kill a cultivator. It was too troublesome.

At this moment, he pondered and said, "Are you guys sure this person will pass through here?"

"Vice Commander-in-Chief, be at ease, as we have already sent people to scout. This person is traveling in a straight line and will definitely pass through here!"

"Vice Commander-in-Chief, there is one thing that confuses me. Out of the 10 people we sent out, only three of them died instead of all of them dying. It seems like this cultivator has some strange attitude when it comes to killing people."

As the demon generals were talking, the middle-aged man's expression changed. He looked into the distance and revealed a hint of impatience as he said, "A mere Ascendant cultivator who is also seriously injured dares to be this bold in my Fire Demon Country? All of you, quickly finish this fight!"

The more than 10 demon generals were startled and they all directed their cold gazes into the distance. One person wearing blue armor took a few steps forward toward the middle-aged man and said, "Lord Vice Commander-in-Chief, your subordinate, Yin Dong, is willing to go kill this person!"

The middle-aged man nodded.

Demon General Yin Dong took a step, turned into a ray of green light, and flew toward Wang Lin.

Yin Dong's eyes became cold and revealed a hint of killing intent. He had to beautifully kill this person before the Vice Commander-in-Chief. If he could catch the attention of the Vice Commander-in-Chief, he would be on the path to success!

"An injured early stage Ascendant cultivator, hmph. My demonic force is almost at 300,000, and although I have no confidence against a real Ascendant cultivator, you are seriously injured. Killing you won't be difficult!"

"Killing intent…" As Wang Lin flew, his eyes contained a monstrous amount of red, and killing and battle intent filled his mind!

"Incomer, stop!" Yin Dong shouted as he flew, and he poured all of his domenic force into this sound to create a shock effect.

This loud roar was like a thunderous roar as it echoed across the city. Then all 100,000 soldiers came to attention and a killing aura surrounded the area.

The middle-aged man revealed a hint of admiration for talent and said, "This Yin Dong is not bad; he knows to use aura to pressure people!"

Yin Dong felt very proud when he felt the killing intent in the air. However, he didn't know that this killing intent led to the bloody gates of hell!

This thick killing intent was immediately felt by Wang Lin in his current sensitive state. This killing intent was too strong, and when Wang Lin felt this, his crazy mind caused his battle intent to increase several fold.

He didn't stop at all and stepped forth. Yin Dong let out a cold snort and was about to use a skill, but right at this moment, Wang Lin suddenly raised his head. His eyes revealed a crazy amount of red light as he lifted his hand and pointed forward. In an instant, a black light created by the finger of death shot out.

Yin Dong didn't even have time to dodge before he was surrounded by the black light, then his body withered and eventually collapsed.

At this moment, the shouts from the 100,000 demon soldiers on the ground suddenly stopped!

Silence, a strange silence filled the wall. The middle-aged man's eyes suddenly opened and for the first time revealed a sign of caution.

"Kill!" During this silence, Wang Lin let out a roar. Then strands of slaughter energy came out from his body and turned into dragons. In an instant, the more than 30,000 strands of slaughter energy appeared and filled the air. At this moment, Wang Lin was surrounded by more than 30,000 dragons and looked like a demon god that was descending.

"Every chief commander, listen to orders and prepare the formation!" A shout came from one of the old men among the demon generals, causing the 100,000 demon soldiers to immediately move!

At the moment the 100,000 demon soldiers moved, the 30,000 strands of slaughter aura descended. A blood bath was about to start!

Chapter 604 - Ten Years of Enlightenment, the Dao Transforms Into the Underworld

It was not false that 100,000 demon soldiers could destroy an Ascendant cultivator, but only if this Ascendant cultivator wasn't Wang Lin. When a normal Ascendant cultivator meets 100,000 demon soldiers, although they can use spells to kill them, the 100,000 demon soldiers can battle the Ascendant cultivator by fusing their demonic spiritual energy into one and creating a formation.

But at this moment, Wang Lin was so crazy that he wasn't even afraid of death, so how would he mind these demon soldiers?

His Celestial Slaughter Art required slaughter to create more slaughter energy. At this moment, Wang Lin's origin soul was being stimulated by the Celestial Ascension Fruit and he had a large amount of celestial spiritual energy in his body, so how could he be stopped by 100,000 demon soldiers!?

If there were five times more demon soldiers, Wang Lin would definitely be defeated, but he would not lose when facing only 100,000 of them!

Slaughter energy charged through the demon soldiers like crazy. As the tragic screams came from the demon soldiers, their demonic spiritual energy gathered to form the image of a scorpion!

The scorpion was made of demonic spiritual energy and had a very large body. The scorpion's tail looked like it could shatter space itself when it attacked.

The middle-aged man on the wall had a gloomy expression as he said, "Go and kill this person!"

The demon generals beside him all charged out toward Wang Lin.

Wang Lin immediately noticed more than 10 strands of killing intent coming at him. He quickly moved and pointed his right pinky forward.

Underworld Finger!

This Underworld Finger was used with Ascendant level cultivation. One finger to summon the underworld. After his domain and origin soul fused, this finger represented the changes of life and death. The moment the finger appeared, countless flashes of lightning appeared across the sky and a large river suddenly appeared in the air.

This river was cloudy with countless remnants and limbs flowing within it. There were also countless ghosts struggling within, and many different human faces could be seen within the water!

As Wang Lin waved his pinky, large waves were created inside the river and descended from the sky. It came down like a flood and trapped all living things within it.

As the water from the underworld fell from the sky, the sky became cloudy and the life and death domain was activated!

This underworld river was something he comprehended in the 10 years it took for his origin soul and domain to fuse. This river did not belong to the heavens; it was formed by Wang Lin, and only he controlled it. He had comprehended the heavens' reincarnation cycle, and during those 10 years of enlightenment, he used the Underworld Finger to create this endless underworld river!

The moment the demon generals charged out, they were washed away by the underworld river that descended from the sky and were trapped by it.

Bursts of exclamations came from the demon generals. They just couldn't believe that the youth before them was this strong!

One spell was able to trap most of the demon generals! Although they couldn't completely see through this spell, a few were able to see some clues!

The middle-aged man on the wall's face changed like it never had before. He unconsciously took a few step back and revealed a look of disbelief.

"This… This isn't possible… This person is only an Ascendant cultivator, but he has such a terrifying dao that he has already created his own underworld river!

"This kind of cultivation has already reached the second step of reaching the edge of the heavens' dao!"

Making his own reincarnation cycle with the underworld river formed by his own dao was the biggest harvest he had in the last 10 years of defying the heavens! But this dao was still only a vague concept in Wang Lin's mind. After all, 10 years of comprehension was still too little.

However, he was currently being stimulated by the Celestial Ascension Fruit, so his mind had reached a new peak. Adding on the surging celestial spiritual energy inside his body, the effects of both could be able to complete that vague concept in his mind and make it into reality!

This was the most important step in his life as a cultivator so far! Once he takes this step, he will truly have his own dao! From that moment on, he will no longer cultivate the heavens, the earth, the immortals, or the gods. He will become a daoist! Someone who cultivates dao!

The underworld river swept across the group and carried more than 10 demon soldiers back with it! The demon generals trapped inside the underworld river struggled like crazy. Their combined struggle was very powerful and even caused the newly formed underworld river to loosen a bit!

Wang Lin's eyes became red as he turned into shadow and entered the underworld river. Once he entered the underworld river, it became as stable as Mount Tai!

"Anyone who wishes to kill me will be trapped in my underworld river. This is my own reincarnation cycle that isn't controlled by the heavens!" Wang Lin's voice spread out his dao. It fused into the underworld river and turned into reincarnation power!

The underworld river rolled back and disappeared from the world, and the more than 10 demon generals disappeared with it!

The scorpion formed by the demon soldiers also collapsed. As the 30,000 strands of slaughter energy moved through, they carried back with them strands of grey gas.

These strands all rushed toward Wang Lin, who was slowly walking toward the city. It looked like the grey gas was a giant cloak on Wang Lin's back. This cloak was so big that it covered the earth.

The expression of the middle-aged man on the wall became pale and his throat felt dry. He kept backing up, as he felt like he had no power to resist the man before him.

"My cultivation level is the same as this person's; both of us are at the early stage of Ascendant. This person is seriously injured, so I was originally 100% confident in killing him, but now I'm not even 10% confident… This person already has his own dao, and that underworld river is too terrifying! The Demon Emperor has harmed me by making me stay here…"

The middle-aged man clenched his teeth and began to retreat like crazy. He didn't hesitate at all as he took out a black, fist-sized beast bone and crushed it. The moment the beast bone shattered, a strand of black gas came out of it. The black gas quickly surrounded the middle-aged man and teleported him away.

This black bone was a very precious item that could teleport someone directly back to the capital. Only the commander-in-chiefs and vice commander-in-chiefs had them!

Wang Lin'e eyes were extremely red. He waved his hand and the 100,000 demon soldiers turned into 100,000 strands of slaughter energy. Adding on the 30,000 strands from before, 130,000 strands of slaughter energy charged out!

At the moment the middle-aged man disappeared, the 130,000 strands of slaughter energy quickly caught up!

There was a very luxurious transfer array in the capital of the Fire Demon Country that only commander-in-chiefs and vice commander-in-chiefs could use. The head steward of the Fire Demon Country was silently cultivating next to the array.

He suddenly opened his eyes and revealed a smile as the transfer array activated. He knew that a commander-in-chief or vice commander-in-chief had returned.

"I wonder who returned…" He stood up and turned around to look at the formation. However, his expression immediately changed. He stared at the formation and was completely dumbfounded.

As the formation lit up, a withered mummy fell from the void. The mummy's eyes were still open and filled with reluctance.

The death of a vice commander-in-chief was a big deal for any of the countries in the Demon Spirit Land. The angry roar of the Fire Demon Country's Demon Emperor echoed throughout the entire capital.

"Search! Find who that cultivator is and kill him. I don't care what his identity is, I want him dead!"

As Wang Lin left the city at the border between the Fire Demon Country and the Sky Demon Country, he took with him 100,000 strands of slaughter energy.

The power of the Celestial Ascension Fruit in his body was still going strong. Not only had the killing not lowered his battle intent, it caused it to increase even more! His killing intent also increased.

He turned into a ferocious meteor as he charged toward the location where he sensed the source of the attacks!

In the past several days, that cold snort never appeared again. Wang Lin's body had already recovered thanks to all of the life force he had taken from the earth. In fact, his body was reaching its peak with the help of all the slaughter energy.

In the black tower in the ancient battle ground, there was a ghostly light flickering inside the armor that was missing a wrist guard, and there was an old man kneeling before the armor!

This old man was wearing all black; he was the person that saved Hu Pao!

"I'll give you three pieces of the demonic armor. Stop him; he is not allowed to step foot onto this ancient battleground!" As the divine sense message echoed in the tower, a wrist guard, chest piece, and shoulder guard flew off the armor!

The moment the three pieces of armor flew out, they turned into black threads that drilled into the old man's clothes. The black threads moved through the old man's skin and quickly appeared all over his body. The threads constantly moved, and when they eventually stopped, a set of black armor appeared over the old man!

This armor was simple, but there was a monstrous amount of devilish energy coming from it. An arm-sized illusion appeared from the devilish energy. This illusion was a shadow with a single horn, exactly the same as the creature Wang Lin destroyed.

The moment it appeared, it entered the old man's forehead. The old man seemed to be enduring a great deal of pain. The veins all over his body swelled up and his cries of pain spread far into the distance.

After a long time, the old man's body trembled. Then his eyes revealed a devilish light and he respectfully said, "This devil servant obeys!"

"Go!" The ghostly light from the armor was very dim. The divine sense message it gave out revealed that it was tired.

The old man no longer spoke. He stood up and walked out of the tower. Then he looked into the distance and, after pondering a bit, he shouted, "Demon Guardians, come out!"

After he said that, a huge gust of wind appeared over the entire ancient battleground. This wind was extremely cold and felt like it could freeze the ground it blew by.

This demonic wind circled around the old man and turned into a woman wearing armor. There was a tattoo on her face that covered her whole body. However, due to her armor, parts of the tattoo were blocked.

After she appeared, she knelt down on one knee and softly said, "Demon Guardian Wind Song, present!" If Wang Lin was here, he would notice that this woman was very similar to Demon General Xie Lian.

Shortly after, the earth trembled and there was a series of explosions. The ground 100 feet before the old man suddenly exploded and a completely black arm reached out.

A very lean old man climbed out from the ground. He was on all fours like some kind of wild beast. He turned his head to look at the old man and grinned. "Demon Guardian Earth Devil, present!"

At this moment, soul fragments filled the horizon and waves of ghostly wails could be heard. These soul fragments formed a giant, black cloud that covered the sky. There were no less than 100 million soul fragments within the black cloud!

The black cloud formed a cone shape, and below it, a sullen looking young man was slowly walking over. The roars of the large amount of soul fragments behind him echoed across the area.

"Demon Guardian Hu Pao, present!"

Chapter 605 - Demon Guardian

After passing through the Ten Thousand Demon Mountain, the location of the source of the cold snort became even more clear to Wang Lin. After several days, an endless wasteland appeared before him.

There was countless debris covering the wasteland. The ground was covered in cracks and there was an unpleasant smell being carried by the wind.

Wang Lin's eyes were bloodshot. The Celestial Ascension Fruit had penetrated his entire mind after being under its effect for so many days. His awareness had increased several fold and now he only needed a little stimulation to erupt.

At this moment the only thought in Wang Lin's mind was "kill!"

He moved like a bolt of lightning, charging directly at the wasteland.

Just at this moment, a series of explosions came from the ground below Wang Lin. Following the sound, a spike made of yellow earth suddenly shot into the air toward him.

At the moment this spike appeared, countless more appeared. They were like ferocious needles that whizzed through the air. In the blink of an eye, Wang Lin was surrounded by spikes.

Wang Lin's divine sense was very sensitive. Instead of backing up, the celestial spiritual energy inside his body formed a vortex. Under the power of the vortex, all of the spikes shattered.

A black figure suddenly jumped out from the ground and landed on one of the spikes. This person was skinny and his body was completely black. He was on all fours with his head tilted as he looked at Wang Lin and licked his lips.

Wang Lin's eyes were bloodshot as he took a step forward and pressed down with his right thumb. The Finger of Death appeared and shot toward the skinny old man as a ray of black light.

The old man let out a grin. This grin was very dark. Facing the Finger of Death, not only did he not dodge, he suddenly opened his big mouth. At this moment, an illusion suddenly appeared behind him. This illusion was about 100 feet tall, looked like a cocoon, and there were pustules on it.

At the moment the skinny old man opened his mouth, a big mouth also appeared on the illusionary cocoon behind him. He sucked the black light of the Finger of Death into his mouth and then swallowed it.

At the moment he swallowed it, the illusionary cocoon behind him also acted like it had swallowed the Finger of Death. Its belly was bulged and its entire body began to squirm. The pustules on the cocoon burst, releasing foul-smelling liquid.

The old man's skinny hand reached out, causing the foul liquid to condense into a ball of pus in his hand.

He stared darkly at Wang Lin and spoke for the first time. "Little kid, your spell was delicious; let me gift you one too!" With that, he threw the ball of pus in his hand toward the ground.

This ball of pus was too fast and landed on the ground in the blink of an eye. When it exploded, it released the pus and fused with the ground.

In an instant, the ground within 10,000 feet began to tremble. Shortly after, large amounts of pus came out from the ground and suddenly formed an encirclement. A thick layer of pus quickly rose up on the outer ring, creating a powerful wall.

The old man licked his lips and in a flash he disappeared into the pus. Right after he disappeared, the wall of pus suddenly began to close in from all directions.

The wall of pus covered the sky and the earth. As it closed it in, it formed a giant sphere.

The old man appeared outside of the pus sphere. He stared at the sphere that was quickly contracting and said, with his hoarse voice, "Wind Song, there is no need for you to be here, so you can go back. A mere cultivator dares to do as he wishes here. He has no chance of surviving my Heaven Pus and Earth Sore!"

A gust of cold wind blew by and the woman with the tattoo on her face appeared 100 feet from the old man. She coldly looked at the pus sphere that had shrunken down to only 100 feet wide and coldly said, "If this person could be killed so easily, Master wouldn't have sent us out!"

"Oh? Then I want to see how this little cultivator can escape from my Heaven Pus and Earth Sore!" The skinny old man smiled, but soon his smile froze.

When the pus sphere shrunk down to only 30 feet wide, it stopped and no longer shrunk. A powerful battle and killing intent penetrated through the pus sphere.

The killing intent that penetrated through caused the surrounding temperature to immediately drop and created gusts of cold wind.

The battle intent that was mixed in with the killing intent caused the skinny old man's pupils to shrink.

Just at this moment, muffled roars came from within the sphere of pus. Soon, a ray of sword energy split the sphere of pus and charged out!

This sword energy was monstrous. When it appeared, it caused the sky to be filled with sword energy!

There was another sword next to the celestial sword. It was a treasured sword, and the faint figure of a devil ram soul had appeared on the sword. There was also a half-moon blade next to the two swords. This blade let out a blade hymn and gave off a cold aura.

Behind those three weapons was Wang Lin. He slowly walked step by step out of the sphere of pus that was cut in half. His eyes were bright red, and the killing and battle intent in his eyes had fused into a mysterious light.

The skinny old man's heart trembled when he looked over. "This person's gaze is somewhat terrifying!"

At the moment he stepped out, the three weapons before Wang Lin charged out. They turned into three rays of light and shot toward the old man and the woman.

The woman's expression was gloomy as she took a step back and immediately disappeared. The black half-moon blade let out a sudden hymn as it also disappeared.

A series of groans and sounds of metal colliding quickly echoed throughout the surrounding area.

The old man's eyes became cold. He didn't even look at the three weapons before his hand formed a seal and he shouted, "Earth Sore!"

The ground 10,000 feet around the old man began to shake. As the ground shook, rings of light appeared and quickly began to expand. They looked like the sores that grow on people's faces, but they were growing on the earth.

The old man shouted, "Explode!" At this moment, his energy surged and all of the sores growing out of the ground immediately exploded.

Then Xu Liguo came out from the celestial sword and cursed at the skinny old man. "Blow yourself up!" He controlled the celestial sword to attack the old man directly. The old man revealed an impatient expression and his hand reached out, trying to grab the celestial sword.

In his eyes, it wasn't hard to grab the sword with just his body at his cultivation level!

Xu Liguo laughed in his heart when he saw the old man trying to grab the sword. Not only did he not dodge, but he even slowed down, waiting for the old man.

"This… What kind of sword is this?!" The old man was shocked and quickly retreated. However, the celestial sword gave chase. The sword with the evil ram soul arched around and attacked the old man's back.

After the sores on the earth exploded, a thick wall of pus 100 feet tall appeared and spread out in ripples. Wang Lin's body was filled with celestial spiritual energy as he floated in the air. He took a step toward the old man, who was entangled with the two swords.

The old man let out an angry roar as he called out the illusionary cocoon again to use his spell. With one step, Wang Lin broke space and arrived above the old man. His blood-red eyes stared at the illusionary cocoon and his right hand reached out. Strands of slaughter energy charged out and drilled into the illusion.

Then he closed his right hand and pulled back. There was a tearing sound as he tore the illusionary cocoon from behind the old man. Wang Lin's eyes lit up as he threw the cocoon behind him.

Then his right hand viciously reached out.

The cocoon exploded as it flew through the air. Large amounts of pus sprayed out and there was a muffled groan from the void. Wind Song's body appeared where the cocoon exploded. Her face was pale, but her eyes were even more gloomy.

The half-moon blade followed closely after her and stabbed toward her. Wind Song waved her hand. There was now a silver dagger in her hand. The sound of metal colliding was heard as the half moon blade was pushed back, but Wind Song was also pushed back a few steps.

She had just arrived here while fighting the half-moon blade and was forced to reveal herself because of the cocoon exploding.

After the cocoon was crushed, the old man coughed out blood and revealed a look of disbelief. At this moment Wang Lin's thumb pressed down again and the Finger of Death appeared once more!

This time the black light charged out like crazy. This black was too fast and was already very close to the old man. The moment it appeared, it appeared before the old man. The old man panicked and opened his mouth to devour the black light. Although he devoured the black light, it didn't dissipate and instead penetrated through his mouth.

Just at this moment, Wind Song threw the dagger in her hand. The dagger and the half-moon blade began to fight. She then turned into a cold breeze and charged toward Wang Lin, who had his back toward her.

The wind was very fast; she closed in on Wang Lin in almost an instant.

Wang Lin didn't turn his head but touched his bag of holding. The Soul Lasher appeared in his hand. The long whip was completely black and gave off an aura that could cause the soul to tremble.

At the moment Wind Song closed in, the Soul Lasher suddenly moved. There was a loud bang followed by Wind Song's miserable groan. She was knocked out of the void and there was a red whip mark on her face. For the first time, her eyes revealed shock. RIght now she didn't want to kill, she wanted to retreat as soon as possible!

Wang Lin's mind had long lost his consciousness due to the stimulation of the Celestial Ascension Fruit, so everything he did was by instinct. Wind Song quickly retreated. For her to be able to fight the half-moon blade, her speed was naturally very fast.

She quickly retreated without even leaving a shadow.

Without even thinking, Wang Lin's palm pressed down and a huge hand print suddenly appeared before him. The same nameless palm print that managed to even scare Mo Lihai appeared!

Wang Lin's slaughter energy moved within the palm print.

Creating a gust of wind in its path, the palm print moved at an unimaginable speed, chasing after Wind Song. The palm print passed through Wind Song while she retreated. The slaughter energy inside the palm entered her body, causing her to explode.

A gentle wind blew by and caused Wang Lin's hair to flutter. He continued to march into the distance, and in front of him were the three weapons.

On the ground there there were a pile of flesh and a mummy giving off an endless amount of death aura…

Chapter 606 - Awaken

Inside the black tower, the ghostly light flickered like it never had before. There was even a hint of fear inside the ghostly light. This kind of thing almost never happened in these countless years!

"That palm print… It's him!! Could this person have something to do with… him… could he also be here!?" There was a trace of panic in the divine sense.

Normally, with his mental strength, this kind of panic would never appear. However, that person was simply too terrifying. So terrifying that even with his cultivation, his heart would tremble when thinking about that person!

"Although this person's palm print has a lot of differences, about 70% of it is the same as his spell…This… Is this a coincidence, or…?"

"Wang Lin!" A loud shout came down like a thunderous roar from the sky. Although this shout came from a person, it also felt like it had come from 100 million souls!

This sound arrived like a series of explosions. The sky changed color and it was as if the sound was the only thing that remained.

Wang Lin's stimulated origin soul showed a sign of sobering up when he heard this voice. Although his eyes were still blood-red, at this moment, they revealed a rare glimmer of clarity.

He turned around and saw dark clouds rushing over from the horizon. These black clouds were made of countless soul fragments. These soul fragments were full of energy and caused terrifying ripples as they charged over.

A black-robed young man walked toward Wang Lin step by step under the black clouds. This person looked normal, but there was a deep sense of hatred in his eyes. He stared at Wang Lin and shouted, while clenching his teeth, "Wang Lin, do you recognize me?!"

Wang Lin's eyes revealed a sense of clarity. He looked at this person and said, in a low tone, "Hu Pao."

"You still remember me! Wang Lin, I'll personally kill you today!" Hu Pao laughed like crazy, causing the clouds of soul fragments above him to tremble. This created a huge pressure that enveloped the area.

"Wang Lin, you never would have imagined that I, Hu Pao, would be like this today. Back then you were so strong in my eyes that it was completely impossible to do anything against you. However, now you are only an ant in my eyes!" Hu Pao stared at Wang Lin while venting all the resentment he had stored up in the past 10 years. He wasn't in a rush to attack, he wanted to vent!

Wang Lin's voice was still calm. "Indeed, I would never have imagined."

Hu Pao madly shouted, "When you abandoned me and Thirteen, do you know how much we suffered? Especially me, who had all of my bones crushed and meridians shattered by that commander.

"I suffered torture and humiliation in the dark prison. Where were you then?

"When I called countless times for you to save me, where were you? In your eyes, Thirteen and I were only pawns. Unfortunately, Thirteen is still a fool and doesn't know your true face!"

The soul fragments above him seemed to feel this excitement and roared with him.

"Fortunately, the heavens have eyes and didn't let me just die. Instead, it give me a new life and let me meet Master. I was able to complete my soul refining spell here, and I have refined over 100 million soul fragments. Today you will without a doubt die! However, I won't kill you so easily. I'll seal your soul inside your body and throw you into the most cruel dungeon in the nine demon country where you will be humiliated but won't be able to die!

"Then I'll extract your soul and seal you in a soul flag where I can torment you every day!"

Hu Pao viciously stared at Wang Lin before revealing a hint of mockery and saying, "Have you ever thought that you would one day be killed by the spell you taught? Have you ever tasted the feeling of 100 million soul fragments invading your body!?"

"After I take your soul, I'll return to the Soul Refining Tribe and take all of their souls too!" Hu Pao's body was trembling. This trembling was caused by excitement, and he began to laugh like crazy.

Wang Lin pondered for a long time and slowly said, "So it turns out you hate me this much."

"Hate? Of course, I, Hu Pao, will not be ordinary in this life. With this soul refining spell and the 100 million soul fragments, I'll be at the top of the Demon Spirit Land. You are not qualified to be my master, even if you were before! You must die!"

Arrogant laughter came from Hu Pao. At this moment, he really did have the qualifications to be arrogant. The power of 100 million soul fragments was indeed great!

Especially because these 100 million soul fragments all came from this ancient battleground. Before they died, none of their cultivations were weak. There were even some demon general level soul fragments, making it all the more terrifying!

"With this soul flag in my hand, who else can stop me besides the Master who saved me? No one can stop me! 100 million soul fragments isn't my goal, my goal is one billion, 10 billion. I want a 10th demon country to appear in the Demon Spirit Land. The first demon emperor will be me, Hu Pao!"

Wang Lin silently looked at Hu Pao and slowly said, "So it seems you want to kill me, and hatred is only half the reason. The other half is to kill everyone else that knows the soul refining spell. This way there will be no one else who can use the same spell as you to compete with you for soul fragments… correct?"

Hu Pao stared at Wang Lin and let out a grim laugh. "You are indeed worthy of being my previous master. That is correct, you treated me as a pawn, but you taught me the soul refining spell. Although I hated you before, it wasn't that much. However, inside the dark prison, I reached enlightenment. What right do you have to be my master? What right did others have to attack me because they don't like you? Because you are strong? Then if I become even more powerful, then what!?

"That is why, at the moment I was rescued, I swore that I'd become strong. I'd overtake you and then kill you!"

Wang Lin slightly shook his head as he carefully looked at Hu Pao and said, "To be able to cultivate to this step in only 10 years of time, I have to admit, not even the most blessed daughter of the heavens could compare to you on this.

"At first I was puzzled. Although your talent is good and even better than Red Butterfly's at certain points, it is impossible to cultivate to this degree in only 10 years. It should also be impossible for you to contain and control so many soul fragments, but now I understand the reason! You must have cultivated a method that burns your potential and life. You will quickly reach your peak for a very short period of time. This peak will be very short, and I'm afraid it will last not even more than a day…"

"Shut up!" Hu Pao's expression was fierce as he pointed at the sky. A part of the black cloud suddenly split off, turning into millions of souls. Hu Pao pointed at Wang Lin and the soul fragments rushed toward him.

Hu Pao madly laughed. "I'll let you see what a million soul fragments are like. You probably have never even seen one million souls before!"

Xu Liguo clearly heard the talk between the two of them. He looked at Hu Pao and thought, "This kid doesn't know how high the heavens is. Your grandpa Xu has tried to revolt many times, and each time I failed. If you can really succeed, I'll change my surname to Hu and be called Hu Liguo!

"Revolting is a very difficult thing, and it requires a lot of planning, especially when it is against this fiend. How can you think it will be this simple!?"

Wang Lin raised his head and calmly looked at the sky. The one million soul fragments rushed at him. This was something he hadn't seen in a long time. This black mass of soul fragments, all with ferocious expressions, wouldn't retreat until they had completely devoured him.

Wang Lin let out a soft sigh as he raised his right hand and pressed it toward the sky, then a symbol appeared in his palm.

The one million soul fragments suddenly stopped and remained motionless after seeing the symbol. This scene was too strange and it even startled Hu Pao.

"The soul refining spell is not used like this!" Wang Lin's voice was soft as he waved his right hand. Looks of respect appeared in the eyes of the one million soul fragments!

The soul fragments recognized Hu Pao as their master, but when they saw that symbol, they immediately understood that the person before them was the real master!

"This… This is impossible… Not possible!!" Hu Pao suddenly lost connection to those one million souls in his mind. He was startled and revealed a ferocious expression as he shouted, "100 million souls, devour!"

After he said that, the black clouds in the sky suddenly descended, creating crazy amounts of pressure, and the 100 million souls rushed out. At this moment, it was as if the only thing that existed in this world right now were the soul fragments!

Hu Pao revealed a ferocious expression. It was as if could see that Wang Lin was about to be devoured.

As the 100 million soul fragments rushed over, Wang Lin's origin soul left his body and swept the area. The weak point that Wang Lin left in the soul refining spell that he taught was used at this moment. Wang Lin had absolute control over all of the souls refined by people who learned the soul refining spell from him!

The 100 million soul fragments were startled, and they immediately showed respect in their eyes and circled Wang Lin. They formed back into the black cloud and stared back at Hu Pao. At this moment, Hu Pao was completely stunned; there was no longer a single soul fragment near him.

This huge change, this strange scene caused Hu Pao's mind to blank out.

"Your soul refining spell was manipulated by someone to make it easier to control. However, how could the root of the soul refining spell be so easily changed without the true inheritance and tens of thousands of years of sacrifice?!"

Wang Lin was the person who inherited the soul refining spell, and the soul refining spell was the heart of the Soul Refining Sect. Although the soul refining spell wasn't an earth-shattering spell, it was something that was refined by countless generations of Soul Refining Sect disciples. The members of the Soul Refining Sect spent tens of thousands of years diligently studying how to refine the spell. How could anyone completely remake the spell in merely 10 years without even the true inheritance!?

Hu Pao's benefactor couldn't do this. Maybe the person inside the armor could, but he wouldn't waste his time on such a small matter.

"Impossible… How did this happen… Benefactor clearly told me that he had already fixed the weakness of this spell… Why…" Hu Pao's dumbfounded expression suddenly turned to anger. He stared at the soul fragments around Wang Lin and shouted, "Soul fragments, quickly return!"

His voice was almost breaking, but the soul fragments around Wang Lin didn't even look at him. They all circled around Wang Lin with looks of respect on their faces!

"Soul fragments, quickly return!" Hu Pao roared like crazy, but the soul fragments still circled Wang Lin.

Hu Pao's heart was filled with rage as his body trembled and he coughed out a large mouthful of blood. He spent countless days and nights during the last 10 years refining souls. His courage continued to expand until he had refined 100 million of them. At that moment, he believed that he had the power to pierce the heavens. He had become strong and could kill Wang Lin to take Wang Lin's place!

However, at this moment, when he was facing Wang Lin, all of that disappeared. More than 10 years of hard work were handed over to Wang Lin just like that. The flame of rage burned brightly in his heart, brightly enough to almost make him collapse!

"Wang Lin, I will kill you!" The veins on Hu Pao's face bulged out and he became crazy. The current him looked even crazier than Wang Lin when he was under the effect of the Celestial Ascension Fruit.

Because he had hopes, when his hopes were shattered, he became even more disappointed and crazy!

Wang Lin revealed a complex expression. He waved his right hand and sighed. "You rebelled because of me. Before you die, I'll let you see a true spell using the soul flag!"

The one-billion-soul soul flag flew out from Wang Lin's bag of holding. The surrounding 100 million soul fragments suddenly trembled before they rapidly fused into one soul!

This soul was crystal-clear as it threw a punch at Hu Pao!

When the punch landed, Hu Pao's body trembled and was torn asunder along with his soul!

Wang Lin let out a sigh as he waved the one-billion-soul soul flag, and the 100 million soul fragments flew into it. There was a hint of struggle in the clarity in his eyes. He looked into the distance and could see that there was a black tower far in the distance.

There was an old man standing below the tower. He was wearing black armor and was also looking toward Wang Lin.

Wang Lin's gaze moved away from the old man and moved to the tower. He could feel powerful, devilish energy coming from the black tower.

This was true devilish energy. There was a distinct difference between this and the devilish energy created from cultivator's cultivation.

Now that Wang Lin had sobered up, his pupils shrank. This devilish energy was very powerful, extremely powerful. The person inside the tower had to be a peerless expert. Wang Lin took a deep breath. His origin soul and his body hadn't completely fused yet. It would still take half a month for his origin soul and body to become one, and only then would his cultivation of early stage Ascendant be stabilized.

"The Celestial Ascension Fruit is simply too tyrannical. Although it allowed me to withstand his attacks, it also made me enter a state of craze that I have never entered before…" Wang Lin took a deep breath and stared into the distance before him.

The old man wearing black armor below the tower took a step. This step caused the earth to tremble, and the trembling spread to Wang Lin's feet.

"Late stage Ascendant… This person's cultivation… No, wait, this person's true cultivation level isn't this high, it is the armor on his body!" The clarity in his eyes struggled once more. The effect of the Celestial Ascension Fruit was attacking his mind like crazy, trying to return him to the madness once more.

Wang Lin's eyes became cold and he let out a cold snort to suppress the effect of the fruit. Then he raised his right hand to point at the sky. There was a loud rumble as a large river appeared in the sky.

Shortly after, he pointed to the spot between his eyebrows with his left hand. A ray of golden light came out from his forehead and into his left hand. Ling Tianhou's sword energy appeared!

The old man in black armor's eyes lit up and he stopped.

Chapter 607 - Condensing The River's Soul

The black-armored old man frowned and his eyes lit up. First he looked at the river in the sky. After pausing for a moment, his gaze moved to the sword energy left by Sword Saint Ling Tianhou.

His eyes were glowing brightly as he stared at that sword energy and sucked in a breath of cold air.

"There is something mysterious about this river formed by his dao. However, it has just formed, so there isn't enough power behind it. But this sword energy… this sword energy is strong… very strong! The person who created this sword energy must be a peerless expert. I'm afraid that person's cultivation level has already entered Nirvana Shatterer!"

Wang Lin's two most powerful hands were brought out. His goal wasn't to fight but to shock the enemy!

Wang Lin had already become sober; the madness from the fruit had been suppressed and he had regained his cunning. Right now this old man was not someone he could deal with, let alone the mysterious existence in the black tower.

The black-armored old man's gaze withdrew from the sword energy. He then looked toward Wang Lin and silently pondered.

The surroundings were completely silent except for the sound of the underworld river flowing in the air. The sound of the river flowing created sound ripples that diffused across the area.

Just at this moment, a huge divine sense suddenly charged out from the tower behind the black-armored old man.

"Where did you learn that palm print!?" The divine sense echoed like a thunderous roar.

The moment this sound appeared, the ground began to shatter, but it stopped 100 feet before Wang Lin.

Wang Lin's eyes narrowed. He remembered now, it was this voice that had seriously injured him countless times on the way here. If not for the slaughter energy and Finger of Death, he would have already died.

Wang Lin said, "I learned it in the Celestial Realm!"

The huge divine sense muttered, "Celestial Realm… Yes, he did go to the Celestial Realm once back then…"

Wang Lin began to retreat. He was no longer under the effect of the Celestial Ascension Fruit. Now that he had calmed down, he was covered in cold sweat.

"Capture him alive!" After the divine sense sent out this message, it disappeared back into the tower.

The black-armored old man didn't hesitate before suddenly leaping into the air. He moved like a bolt of lightning toward Wang Lin. With his late stage Ascendant cultivation, his hand formed a seal and he shouted, "Wind!"

With one word, a giant tornado suddenly appeared. As it swept across the ground, the earth began to shatter and countless broken rocks were mixed into the tornado as it charged at Wang Lin.

Wang Lin's expression was gloomy as he backed up several step and his right hand pointed at the sky. The underworld river suddenly descended from the sky and swept across the area.

The incoming tornado was stopped by the flow of the underworld river. After a few bursts of reincarnation energy, the tornado was pulled into the underworld river.

"Such a young age and you already have your own dao. You are not simple!" The old man's voice was calm. His hand formed a seal and pointed at the sky.

"Thunder!" After the old man shouted, the sky immediately darkened and dark clouds suddenly filled the sky. These dark clouds looked like ugly faces.

With the word "thunder," a small gap suddenly appeared in the black clouds. Following a loud rumble, a ray of black thunder descended from the sky!

Wang Lin's expression changed as he raised his left pinky without any hesitation toward the descending thunder!

Underworld Finger!

Wang Lin couldn't afford to underestimate this thunder spell. He heard from Situ Nan that thunder spells were the most difficult to practice. Unless someone had a lot of skill, they were very difficult to learn!

This was because thunder was considered the power of the heavens, and how could the power of the heavens be so easily used by a human?

The underworld river began to move due to the Underworld Finger. The entire underworld river began to move following the direction of Wang Lin's finger. Then the underworld river charged into the black thunder in the sky, carrying the power of reincarnation!

An earth-shattering explosion echoed across the sky. Although the underworld river began to collapse, the black thunder was also dissipating. After ? of the underworld river had collapsed, the black thunder dissipated completely!

"Your dao is very powerful!" The black-armored old man sneered. His right hand pointed at the sky again and he shouted, "Rain!"

The dark clouds in the sky suddenly shrank and drops of black rain immediately began to fall. These raindrops fell down from the sky like swords straight toward Wang Lin.

"Late stage Ascendant… is indeed something I can't beat. However, if you want to kill me, it will not be this simple!" Wang Lin's eyes lit up as he took a step and walked directly into the underworld river.

When he entered the underworld river, he merged with it. He became his dao; he was the underworld river!

The underworld river that had already lost ? of itself immediately formed a giant wave after Wang Lin walked in. It flowed on the ground and in the blink of an eye turned into a dragon!

Wang Lin was located at the head of the dragon!

The dragon head rose up and let out a roar. This was the roar of the underworld, it was Wang Lin's heaven-defying dao! This was the roar Wang Lin gave as he raised his head.

The black rain falling from the sky suddenly paused after the roar. Then the black raindrops all shattered and turned into slivers of black smoke. In the blink of an eye, the sky was covered in black smoke.

"What a good fusion with your dao! Unfortunately, I don't think your dao can even withstand one hit from me! This old man doesn't have his own dao, but this armor of mine does!"

The old man's expression was normal. His arms opened up as he sneered and flew into the air before shouting, "Wind!"

The wind picked up again and formed a giant vortex in the sky. This was a vortex of wind, and its appearance caused all of the black gas to be sucked into it.

The old man shouted again, "Rain!" Drops of black rain appeared inside the vortex. These raindrops were made of devilish energy, so they were not normal!

"Thunder!" There was a thunderous roar and another ray of black thunder appeared within the black clouds. At the moment the black thunder appeared, there were strands of black lightning moving within the black raindrops.

At this moment, with the thunder at the center and countless raindrops connected by the black lightning, it was as if there was a giant nest of lightning covering the sky.

"Lightning!" The old man's voice seemed to even suppress the roar of the thunder! Then the thunder, raindrops, and even the vortex descended from the sky at lightning speed!

Wang Lin raised his head. This was a new peak for him; it was a battle like he'd never had before!

Unless something heaven-defying happened, then he would without a doubt lose when trying to fight against a late stage Ascendant cultivator with only his early stage Ascendant cultivation! Wang Lin knew this well because he had that heaven-defying object!

Ling Tianhou's sword energy was that heaven-defying object!

Wang Lin slapped his bag of holding, took out the one-billion-soul soul flag, and 100 million soul fragments immediately flew out. After these soul fragments appeared, they didn't fly into the sky but instead quickly flew into the underworld river.

All 100 million soul fragments soon fused with the underworld river.

"When I was under the influence of the Celestial Ascension Fruit, I was able to create this underworld river with my dao. Now that I'm sober, I'm still able to condense the soul of the river!"

The 100 million soul fragments fused with the underworld river and fused into one. This soul was the soul of the underworld river!

The underworld river now had a soul, so it suddenly moved when the wind, rain, thunder, and lightning descended from the sky. Wang Lin was inside the underworld river. He spread out his divine sense and his dao fused with the river. At this moment, his origin soul let out a roar and the underworld river charged into the sky.

Now that it had a soul, the underworld river seemed to have gained intelligence. It was like a dragon, as it let out a roar and wanted to devour the wind, rain, thunder, and lightning spell!

At the same time, 130,000 strands of slaughter energy came out from between Wang Lin's eyebrows and fused with the dragon. Now this underworld river carried killing intent!

This was Wang Lin's real underworld river. It contained 130,000 strands of slaughter energy, 100 million soul fragments, and Wang Lin's dao!

The mix of these charged out like crazy toward the descending spell from the old man!

This was a battle of people at the peak!

The thunder roared, the raindrops carried the lightning, and the wind vortex displayed its might as the spell collided with the underworld river. At this moment, the sky changed colors and a loud explosion echoed endlessly through air. The ground trembled as a large amount of cracks appeared everywhere.

At this moment, it was as if a layer had been peeled off from the entire ancient battleground. The sky above the ancient battleground seemed to have completely shattered!

This was a battle of heaven and earth!

At the same time as the earth was shattered, a large amount of soul fragments flew out from underground. These soul fragments were all powerful, so they weren't refined by Hu Pao. When Wang Lin saw these soul fragments, his eyes lit up and he shook the soul flag in his hand.

The soul flag turned into a giant, black cloth that covered the sky. With just one sweep, countless souls were captured by the soul flag. These soul fragments turned into strands of black gas and fused with the underworld river.

As the heavens and earth shook, the black-armored man's expression became gloomy. Then he gave Wang Lin a meaningful look and shook his head. "This wind, rain, thunder, and lightning spell is my weakest spell. Next you will see the dao that belongs to this armor!"

Dao of the Devil!

The old man wiped the armor on his chest. In an instant, the armor began to move in a strange manor. Strands of devilish energy came out from the armor and quickly gathered before the old man.

A sickle that gave off monstrous, devilish energy formed before the old man!

The devilish energy that the sickle was giving off was incredibly dense. There seemed to be some law that was outside of the heavens' control inside this devilish energy. Its appearance caused cracks to appear in the nearby space before the space quickly shattered.

This sickle wasn't completely solid, it was changing between incorporeal and corporeal. As it changed between these two states, there was a sizzling sound.

The moment the sickle appeared, the old man revealed a painful expression; it was as if he was enduring unimaginable torture. The single-horned devil illusion that had entered the old man's brow appeared. Its expression was the exact opposite of the old man's; it looked very comfortable.

The devil illusion completely flew out of the old man's body, turned into black smoke, and entered the sickle. The sickle suddenly became alive and charged straight at Wang Lin.

The underworld river and the wind, rain, thunder, and lightning spells continued to collide, giving off loud explosions that echoed across the sky. The sickle quickly flew through the air, leaving behind a long trail of devilish flame.

Wang Lin's eyes narrowed as he raised his right hand. Sword Saint Ling Tianhou's sword energy condensed at the tip of his finger!

Ling Tianhou's life revolved around swords. He had created four small worlds that he refined into four sword gods. He was considered powerful and on par with the All-Seer on planet Tian Yun. The power of his sword energy was unimaginable!
