Chapter 510 - Collapse! Break Down!
The two Da Lou Sword Sect elders looked at each other, then the short elder suddenly reached out with his hand. The man in white next to Qian Qin exclaimed and his body was thrown into the valley by an invisible force.
Just as he was thrown into the valley, a sharp sound that could pierce the heavens echoed within the valley. In the blink of an eye, a large amount of red dots came out from the rotting leaves covering the valley and began to gather. From a distance, this sight was terrifying.
"Senior apprentice brother!" Qian Qin suddenly turned around. She looked at the people of the Da Lou Sword Sect and shrilled, "What is the meaning of this, Senior!?"
Just as Qian Qin finished speaking, those countless red dots began to move. The red dots gathered to form a giant, red cloud, then it began to emit a loud buzzing sound and moved toward the white-robed young man.
Its speed was simply too fast. It moved like a red lightning bolt and surrounded the white-robed young man. At this moment, a scene that shocked everyone but the two elders to silence unfolded before them.
The countless red dots broke through the white-robed young man's clothes and dug into his body. In just three breaths of time, his white robe was blood red.
Bursts of terrifying screams and shrills came from his mouth. The intense pain caused him to keep scratching himself, and bone deep cuts appeared all over his body.
His body struggled and rolled violently in the valley. His eyes revealed a deep sense of despair and unimaginable hatred.
"Senior apprentice brother…" Qian Qin trembled violently and revealed a pitiful smile.
At this moment, almost all of the red dots in the valley appeared and entered the young man's body. His eyes slowly dimmed and his miserable screams slowly weakened.
This happened extremely quickly, but it was very shocking; it caused everyone's expressions to become very ugly.
"Today's matter was caused by me. If Qian Qin's senior apprentice brother hadn't died, then it would have been fine and there wouldn't be a grudge between us…" Yin Shaoqing looked toward Qian Qin with killing intent.
As for the other woman, the one who called Guo Xingyin "senior apprentice brother," her face was pale, her small hand covered her mouth, and she looked like she was about to puke. Her body was trembling, as she was clearly terrified by what just happened.
Only the blue-robed man who was always praising Guo Xingyin didn't show any sign of discomfort on his face. Instead, when he looked toward the valley, he had an intoxicated expression.
The Da Lou Sword Sect's Shi Fang smiled at the short elder and said, "It looks like the two of us don't have to kill anymore. That one person has already lured a majority of the Nine Multitude Bugs into his body."
The short elder smiled and said, "Brother Shi is better with restrictions; I hope you won't hold back. Once we obtain the Brilliant Golden Fruits, we still have to report back to the sect."
Shi Fang laughed. Without a word, he slapped his bag and a red jade appeared in his hand. His right hand took the form of a sword as he pointed at the jade and said, "Sword Seal Restriction, open!"
With that, the jade immediately began to buzz and then flew into the valley as a ray of red light.
When the red jade flew into the valley, the buzzing sound became even louder, and strands of red silk came out from the jade. Then, after a pause, there was a thunderous roar, and the red jade began to move in a mysterious fashion. In the blink of an eye, the speed of its movement increased until it seemed to have melted into countless strands. These countless red strands charged toward the young man that was barely struggling.
The red silk moved extremely fast and arrived before the young man in the blink of an eye. The red silk didn't enter the young man but instead intertwined together to form a net, which surrounded the young man and the ground several feet around him.
At this moment, the Da Lou Sword Sect elder, Shi Fang's, eyes lit up and he shouted, "Seal!"
With the word "seal," the red net began to emit a red light. There was a serious of crackling sounds as countless rays of red light appeared all over the red net, forming a very powerful seal.
After finishing all of this, the short, old elder immediately walked into the valley. Just as he entered, sound came from the leaves and red dots appeared from them; however, there weren't many of them this time.
The short elder's expression was normal as he raised his right hand and flicked his finger. Every time he flicked, he sent out a ray of sword energy and a large amount of red dots were destroyed.
In truth, if there were a few more Nine Multitude Bugs, it would have been very difficult for him to handle them, but now that there weren't many left, it looked like it was very easy for him to deal with them.
The Da Lou Sword Sect's Shi Fang flew into the valley. With his help, the remaining bugs were immediately destroyed.
The third person to enter the valley was Guo Xingyi's uncle-master, and after him was everyone else. As for Qian Qin, the anger on her face had disappeared, and what remained was a terrifying calmness.
After the short elder threw out the last ray of sword energy to destroy the last remaining Nine Multitude Bug, his eyes lit up and they landed on the field of golden flowers.
"Lu Songyi, go pick those Brilliant Golden Fruits!" The short elder's voice was filled with a "no one can disobey me" majesty!
Lu Songyi was the Soul Formation old man. After hearing this, he immediately nodded and was about to harvest the Brilliant Golden Fruits.
However, just at this moment, a gentle gust of wind entered the valley. At first there was nothing abnormal about this wind; at most it just rustled the leaves on the ground.
However, when the wind landed on the two elders, their expressions changed greatly.
Shi Fang suddenly turned his head, and his eyes lit up as he looked toward the outside of the valley. The short elder's face was gloomy. He placed his right hand over his bag of holding, and his eyes were filled with killing intent.
Their movement suddenly changed the entire atmosphere in the valley. There was now a killing intent surrounding the valley.
As a result, the old man named Lu that was about to go harvest the fruit suddenly stopped and revealed a shocked expression.
As for the other people, they were all the same. Only Qian Qin's eyes were calm as she looked at the body of her senior apprentice brother that had already died. It was as if everything happening around her had nothing to do with her anymore.
Shi Fang pondered a bit and then shouted, "Fellow cultivator that just arrived, there is no need to pretend or hide. I'm one of the Da Lou Sword Sect's elders, Shi Fang. I wish for fellow cultivator to come out to speak!" The two elders looked at each other and saw the shock in each other's eyes.
At the moment that wind came, that feeling from before increased several fold. At first it felt like there was a fierce beast far away, but then in the blink of an eye, that fierce beast was before his eyes.
This drastic change immediately caused the two elders' hearts to tremble violently.
A thick mass of grey gas came toward the valley. The grey gas was so thick that no one could clearly see the person inside. The grey gas stopped outside the valley.
The moment the grey gas appeared, Shi Fang's expression became extremely ugly.
The short elder's face was gloomy and he said, word for word, "Sir, you are?"
When he finished speaking, he didn't wait for a response. He let out a roar, his right hand touched his bag of holding, and a bronze mirror appeared in his hand. The mirror was thrown into the air and suddenly grow to three feet wide. It released a green light that surrounded the grey gas.
At the moment the short elder threw out the mirror, Shi Fang, who had fought with the short elder for a long time, meaning their cooperation was very good, formed a seal with his two hands without any hesitation and the treasured sword on his back flew into the air. The sword floated vertically above his head, and the illusion of a large sword appeared behind him.
Shi Fang shouted, "Chop!"
At the moment two elders attacked, the Soul Formation old man, Lu Songyi, moved like lightning and quickly charged toward the Brilliant Golden Fruits. He had cultivated for a long time and knew how to seize the moment of opportunity. Because he was already close to the fruits, he arrived there in the blink of an eye.
The light from the bronze mirror was like a restriction that surrounded the grey gas. At the same time, Shi Feng's sword closed in like it was from the peak of the ninth heaven. Before the sword even closed in, there were already sonic booms from it breaking the sound barrier.
The Da Lou Sword Sect was famous for their swords, so the power of their swords couldn't be weak!
However!
At the moment the sword energy descended, the grey gas suddenly moved. This movement was like ten thousand horses charging, like a tsunami that was sky high. In an instant, the grey gas charged through everything and surrounded the entire valley.
Along with this charge, there was a cold voice that came from within the grey gas.
"How could the light of a firefly compete with the bright moon?!"
This voice was extremely cold, and the moment the voice landed on everyone's ears, it caused them all to shiver. The green light surrounding the grey gas immediately collapsed into countless rays of green light before dissipating.
Cracking sounds came from the bronze mirror in the sky before BOOM!
The sword energy Shi Fang had struck out broke!
Chapter 511 - Battle!
The two Da Lou Sword Sect elders both almost coughed out blood at the same time as their bodies exploded backwards, leaving behind deep footprints in the ground.
Every foot print they left caused the ground to tremble slightly.
As the grey gas spread, one strand of it shot out like a sword. Its target wasn't the two elders but the Soul Formation old man, Lu Songyi, who was trying to secretly harvest the Brilliant Golden Fruits.
Lu Songyi's expression changed greatly. He knew that couldn't move in time, so he began to teleport. He knew that teleporting here was very dangerous, but at this moment, he couldn't worry about it too much. His figure began to distort and was about to disappear.
However, a cold snort came from within the grey gas as it was charging at him.
After the snort, the grey gas suddenly closed and broke through the distorted space. In the blink of an eye, it charged through Lu Songyi's body just before he could teleport away.
"You!" Lu Songyi's expression changed greatly and he was about to speak, but his body suddenly trembled and began to expand like a balloon.
This scene was simply too strange. Lu Songyi's body reached its limit before BOOM! A Da Lou Sword Sect Soul Formation cultivator was forced to explode just like that.
Bang Bang Bang! The sound was still echoing inside the valley while a large amount of flesh and blood rained to the ground.
A faint blood mist slowly surrounded the area.
In the blood mist, a figure wearing purple slowly walked into the valley!
This person had long hair that was casually flowing behind his head. His face wasn't handsome, but he gave off an out-of-this-world feeling. On his finger there were two rays of grey gas moving around like two small dragons.
On his waist there was a purple token with the word "Seven" carved onto it!
Wang Lin's appearance caused the entire valley to become completely silent.
Guo Xingyi's face was completely pale without any trace of blood, and his body was faintly trembling. His right hand clenched onto his sword until his fingers went white.
His junior apprentice sister revealed a look of terror. Finally, she wasn't able to stand it anymore and so she knelt down to puke. Her face was extremely pale.
As for the blue-robed young man who didn't seem to be from the Da Lou Sword Sect, he looked even more intoxicated than before as he took a deep breath of this air that tasted like blood.
Aside from the three of them, the woman named Qian Qin revealed an unsettling and struggling expression.
This junior's cultivation and mentality weren't strong enough to be comparable to the two elders'. Although the two of them had their hearts shaken up and realized that things had gone south, their expressions were calm and only a bit ugly.
Wang Lin's expression was calm as his gaze swept past each of them. Then his hand randomly pointed at the air and strands of grey gas came out from the scattered flesh inside the valley and quickly gathered together.
A big cloud of grey gas was formed and quickly moved toward Wang Lin's finger.
A large amount of grey gas gathered toward Wang Lin's finger to form a ball at his fingertip. The ball was very cloudy and contained a mysterious force, so when one looked at it, they couldn't stop themselves from staring.
Wang Lin's eyes were calm as he casually squeezed his finger. There was a fluctuation of energy coming from inside the ball, causing it to shrink until it was only the size of a fingernail. Wang Lin grabbed it with his hand, and when he opened his hand, the grey ball of gas was gone.
The Da Lou Sword Sect's Shi Fang looked at the token on Wang Lin's waist before saying, word for word, "Heavenly Fate Sect, Purple Division's seventh disciple, Wang Lin!"
Wang Lin withdrew his hand, then he looked at Shi Fang and said, "Answer one of my questions and I'll let one of you go today!"
Shi Fang began to laugh as if he had heard the funniest thing in the world. His right hand formed a seal and pointed at the sky, then a powerful sword energy came from the sheath on his back. The sword energy was green, and it ascended into the sky.
Shi Fang sneered, "Wang Lin, although you are a mid stage Soul Transformation cultivator, with the two of us at the early stage along with our sword treasures from the sect, even if you were to kill us, you would be seriously injured. Let's see how you will go to the Eastern Demonic Spirit Sea when it opens in one and a half months!"
He had already heard rumors of the list of people chosen to enter the Eastern Demonic Spirit Sea. He heard that the newly accepted Purple Division seventh disciple was one of the people chosen.
Now that he had seen Wang Lin, he decided to gamble! He gambled that Wang Lin wouldn't dare to casually act against them because they both could retaliate in full force and end up injuring him. This would mess up Wang Lin's trip to the Eastern Demonic Spirit sea.
The short elder hadn't spoken a word since Wang Lin appeared, but his eyes had been locked onto him. Now that he heard Wang Lin's words, he secretly realized that something was wrong. According to his observations, this person was not one to do things without carefully considering them beforehand. Rather than wasting time talking to this person, he would rather they team up and take this chance to attack now. Their chance of winning against a mid stage Soul Transformation cultivator with two early stage Soul Transformation cultivators was already not high.
The short elder clenched his teeth, and without a word he began to move. He slapped his bag of holding and a blood-colored flag appeared in his hand. With one wave, a blood mist came out from the flag and immediately covered his entire body.
"Accept your death!" The short elder let out a shout as his hand formed seals and he viciously sent out his palms. Several bloody palm prints that carried the smell of blood suddenly appeared within the blood mist and shot toward Wang Lin.
At the same time, the short elder bit his tongue and spat out a large amount of essence blood. The color of this blood had a hint of gold, and after he coughed out the blood, he began to chant. He chanted like a ghost, making it hard to hear, but a mysterious force suddenly appeared as if it had descended from the heavens.
"Heavenly Ghost Devour!" After finishing the chant, the short elder's eyes lit up. With a loud shout, the slightly golden essence blood began to move in a mysterious way, and in the blink of an eye, it disappeared.
At the moment it disappeared, a 100-foot-tall illusionary head suddenly appeared behind the short elder. This head was very big and it was greenish black. There was no hair on the head, and it looked like a vicious ghost. Although the head was illusionary, it looked corporeal and gave off a cold aura.
The moment the head appeared, it let out a roar and flew out from behind the short elder and charged toward Wang Lin!
The short elder shouted, "Attack!"
Shi Fang clenched his teeth. Without a word, his hand formed a seal and slashed down. The sword behind his back let out an earth-shattering sword hymn and suddenly charged toward Wang Lin like a vicious dragon.
At the same time, Shi Fang still found that their chances were not good, so he spat out a mouthful of essence blood. Next, he sat down in the lotus position and caught his essence blood at the center of his palm. Then he let out a roar and slapped it on his forehead.
With a thunderous thud, Shi Fang's body trembled, and a ball of green light came out from his forehead. In the green light, Shi Fang's origin soul suddenly flew out, then he opened his mouth and blinding, green light shined from his mouth. The green light turned into a sword as long as a finger with a willow leaf carved onto it. His origin soul entered this sword and quickly chased after the sword energy he had just sent out.
"Accept your death!"
The two early stage Da Lou Sword Sect elders were already fighting with all they had.
Wang Lin's expression was calm as he stood there, and his gaze remained the same. He took one step, raised his hand, pressed at the air, and black light appeared on his fingers.
Finger of death!
With one finger, tens of thousands of souls die!
With one finger, all of the grass in the valley turned brown, and even the already withered leaves began to collapse. They weren't just collapsing on the outside; even the roots collapsed.
The several bloody palms that were charging toward Wang Lin now collided with his finger, and without any pause, they all immediately collapsed.
However, if they had just collapsed, then it wouldn't show the true power of the Finger of Death! The blood print that was breaking apart was slowly retreating, but before it was able to retreat far, it was immediately pulled back toward Wang Lin's finger due to the power of the finger of death.
This scene happened extremely fast. From the outside, it looked like when Wang Lin's thumb had pressed down on the bloody palms, they were absorbed by his thumb, and it now had a blood red color.
After absorbing the power of the blood palm, Wang Lin's eyes became even colder. Not only did the thumb not stop, it moved even faster. Wang Lin bypassed the sword energy from Shi Fang and then immediately pressed his thumb down between the brows of the ghostly head.
The ghostly head's eyes released a ghostly light, and at the moment Wang Lin's thumb arrived, it opened its mouth and swallowed Wang Lin's thumb.
"Eh?" Wang Lin's eyes lit up and he let out a smile. "Since you want to devour, then I'll let you devour your fill!"
With that, Wang Lin's thumb began to glow red as he pushed all the power he had absorbed from the bloody palms into the head. At the same time, a sliver of the destructive force from the finger of death that could destroy everything entered the head as well.
The ghostly head immediately began to expand. A cry came from the head as he immediately began to retreat, but he only retreated 30 feet before he exploded with a bang.
The short elder's life spell was broken, causing his face to immediately turn pale and cough out a large mouthful of blood. His eyes are filled with terror as he turned around and ran without any hesitation.
He was truly scared!
He once used this Heavenly Ghost Devour spell against a mid stage Soul Transformation cultivator. Although that mid stage Soul Transformation cultivator was able to break it in the end, he was in danger the entire time. But Wang Lin was able to break it so casually; how could he not run?
Chapter 512 - Kill!
Wang Lin coldly looked at where the short elder was escaping to and slapped his bag of holding, bringing the celestial sword out. From within the celestial sword came Xu Liguo's arrogant voice.
"Grandson, don't run! Your grandpa Xu will let my junior brother play with you!" As soon as the voice came from the flying sword, the half-moon blade immediately charged out toward the short elder.
All of this happened extremely fast. In almost an instant, Wang Lin broke the bloody palms, destroyed the ghostly head, and caused the short elder to run for his life.
At this moment, Shi Fang's sword energy was quickly closing in on Wang Lin.
Wang Lin turned around and saw Shi Fang's origin soul, which was on the small sword behind the sword energy. His expression remained the same, his body didn't move, and he only raised his left arm. Metal celestial energy suddenly came from his left arm and filled the valley.
At the same time, his left arm was like the the sun releasing a blinding, golden light, and a vortex slowly condensed at the center of his palm.
"Four cycle metal celestial spiritual energy!" said Wang Lin softly as he gently pushed his palm forward.
With a series of rumbling sounds, the golden vortex in his hand suddenly charged out and directly collided with the sword energy. At this moment, a large number of cracks appeared in the valley, and even many of the surrounding mountains began to collapse.
After the sword energy was the small sword with the willow leaf engraved on it. It charged through the air past the collision and went directly toward the area between Wang Lin's brows. Its speed was extremely fast, so although Wang Lin was at the mid stage of Soul Transformation, even he didn't want to mess with an early stage Soul Transformation cultivator who was going all out by merging their origin soul with their life saving spell.
However, this was only true before he had the Soul Lasher. Now, his expression didn't even change. He quickly backed up as he touched his bag of holding and a black shadow suddenly appeared, breaking the sound barrier right when it came out.
With a crisp sound, the small sword trembled as if it had been hit by a powerful force, and its speed immediately decreased.
There was another crisp sound as the whip hit the sword. An angry roar came from the small sword, and a green flame suddenly condensed around it. It broke through space and immediately appeared three inches away from Wang Lin's forehead.
"Oh? Desperate now?" Wang Lin quickly backed up as the whip moved at lightning speed toward the sword.
With a series of crisp sounds, the whip landed on the small sword, causing a series of miserable screams to come from it. In the end, a large amount of black gas poured out of it. It immediately stopped charging at Wang Lin and turned around to escape, except now the light on the sword was extremely faint.
A large amount of black gas came out from the small sword and turned into the shape of Shi Fang. The current him was extremely weak; it was as if a gentle breeze could make him collapse.
Shi Fang wanted to return to his body, but Wang Lin wouldn't give him that chance. Just as his origin soul was about to condense, Wang Lin's right hand pointed forward and a ray of green light shot out. The target wasn't Shi Fang's origin soul but his body!
Shi Fang watched as the green light turned into a giant monster. The most eye catching part of this monster was its sharp mouth.
At this moment, the sharp mouth was moving at lightning speed as it descended from above, then it pierced through Shi Fang's head and stabbed deep into his body.
Shi Fang's essence, blood, and flesh, along with some remaining celestial spiritual energy and anything that was devourable, were sucked dry in an instant.
In the end, all that remained was a corpse.
Shi Fang's origin soul that had just formed from the small sword stared dumbfoundedly at what just happened. He turned around to give Wang Lin a vicious look before flying toward the juniors in the distance.
There were four juniors, two male and two female. Shi Fang didn't hesitate at all as he charged toward Guo Xingyi.
Guo Xingyi was confused. He didn't knew why the elder was charging toward him. His vision suddenly went dark and there was suddenly a wound on his forehead. It was the small sword, it had pierced through it.
Guo Xingyi's body trembled and his eyes dimmed. However, his eyes suddenly lit up once more, but there was a strong sense of weakness coming from those eyes.
Wang Lin's eyes became serious as he looked at the scene with interest. It has to be said that possession was not simple; even Situ Nan took more than 10 days to complete the possession. However, this elder was able to immediately regain his sanity and looked like he had already completed a majority of the possession process.
This point surprised Wang Lin.
At this moment, Guo Xingyi's face was pale. He stared at Wang Lin and quickly said, "Fellow cultivator Wang, everything was my fault this time. If you let me leave, I'll give you the method of this quick possession technique. I also swear by my true soul that I'll never speak of the matter here today!"
With that, Shi Fang waved his hand, and aside from Qian Qin, the other two immediately exploded and died.
"Fellow cultivator Wang, this girl, Qian Qin, is still a virgin. I have a spell that can use virgins to heal your wounds. If you let me go, I'll gift that to you as well!" Shi Fang's heart pounded extremely fast as he looked at Wang Lin. If he hadn't been forced into a corner, he wouldn't be begging like this.
Qian Qin's body trembled after hearing Shi Fan's words. She looked at Wang Lin with a complex expression before clenching her teeth, kneeling down to the ground, and softly saying, "I beg Senior to please kill this person and the other Da Lou Sword Sect elder. Qian Qin doesn't have anything to give, but I am willing to spend my life serving Senior like a cattle or a horse."
Shi Fang's face was gloomy, and a hint of killing intent flashed across his eyes.
Wang Lin's expression remained the same as he slowly said, "Do you know if there was anything abnormal when Sword Saint Ling Tianhou returned from the Celestial Realm 200 years ago?"
"200 years ago…" Shi Fang was startled. He pondered a bit before his eyes lit up. He looked at Wang Lin and asked, "Could it be that you're talking that sword spirit?!"
Wang Lin's eyes became serious and he said, "Tell me about it."
Shi Fang pondered. After a long time, he bitterly said, "I only heard about it, so I don't know the details. I heard that the sword saint was a mess when he returned, and after that, a series of murders occurred inside the sect. Finally, an unknown sword spirit appeared and had a huge battle with the sword saint. After that, the sword spirit disappeared. No one knows where it went."
Wang Lin looked at Shi Fang. This person was not telling the truth.
Wang Lin's expression didn't change as he calmly said, "Place your fast possession method in a jade and give it to me!"
Shi Fang raised his head. He looked at Wang Lin and said, "Do you agree to let me go?"
Wang Lin coldly looked at this person and said, "That will depend on whether what you imprinted on the jade is real or fake!"
Shi Fang clenched his teeth as he took out a jade and imprinted the possession technique and the healing spell on it. Then he threw the jade directly at Wang Lin.
Wang Lin raised his hand to catch it and began to read it with his divine sense. He directly skipped past the spell that used a virgin to heal and focused on the possession technique.
Shi Fang's eyes lit up, and without any hesitation, he began to move. He charged into the distance and was about to leave the valley.
Wang Lin didn't even look at him as he pointed at him with his left finger. The grey gas that had been circling his finger suddenly shot out toward Shi Fang, breaking the sound barrier in the process.
Shi Fang immediately noticed. He jerked his head around and shouted, "Wang Lin, are you still a cultivator!?"
His body flickered. He was about to teleport, but he had just finished possessing this body, so everything was in a weakened state. Just as his body began to use celestial spiritual energy, the two strands of grey gas suddenly sped up and closed in on him at an unimaginable speed.
Shi Fang's pupils shrank, then his body trembled a bit and stopped moving. The two strands of grey had already entered his body and cycled through him like crazy along his veins.
After three breaths of time, with a loud bang, Shi Fang's body suddenly collapsed.
A large amount of flesh and blood rained from the sky again, and grey gas once again gathered from the flesh and returned to Wang Lin.
Wang Lin raised his head and his divine sense withdrew from the jade.
"This fast possession technique does have some value." Wang Lin put the jade away and looked into the distance.
That was where the half-moon blade and celestial sword were. The short elder was trapped by them and was waiting for Wang Lin's questioning.
Wang Lin didn't immediately move there but slowly walked to west side of the valley. This was where all the flowers were. He squatted down, picked up a fruit, and smelled it.
Wang Lin's action caused the mosquito beast that just ate Shi Fang's body begin to rapid beat its wings. Its eyes revealed a willingness to please.
Even the woman named Qian Qin's eyes became serious as she looked at the Brilliant Golden Fruit in Wang Lin's hand, and she couldn't help but sigh. Her sect had spent a lot of effort to find the Brilliant Golden Fruit, but they unexpectedly met the people of the Da Lou Sword Sect. She originally thought that everything was set in stone, but then there was a sudden change that resulted in the scene before her.
The sudden appearance of the Heavenly Fate Sect's Purple Division seventh disciple, Wang Lin, easily changed everything!
Wang Lin softly whispered, "Don't worry!"
After the mosquito heard this, it quickly nodded. Its eyes contained a hint of fanaticism.
As Wang Lin held the Brilliant Golden Fruit, he wanted to test if this fruit could fill up the metal element of the heaven defying bead. If not, then he would just feed it to the mosquito beast.
The heaven defying bead was only missing the metal element after the battle at the Suzaku Tomb; it was still missing half of the required element.
Chapter 513 - Golden Spirit Root
Wang Lin pressed the Brilliant Golden Fruit against his forehead, and it went inside it. After a while, he revealed a look of disappointment and loosened his hand.
"I was too impatient. How could completing the heaven defying bead be such a simple matter? Seven hundred years of cultivation, and even with my luck, I was only able to complete four of the elements. Every completion was filled with danger, so I believe that the completion of this last metal element won't be simple either… I just don't know if that Golden Spirit Root will have any effect."
Wang Lin secretly sighed, then he reached out and about ? of all the Brilliant Golden Fruits flew into the air.
The mosquito let out a cry of joy as it sucked hard with its mouth and devoured all the Brilliant Golden Fruits. At this moment, a golden light suddenly appeared around the mosquito and flashed brightly nine times before returning to normal.
Seeing that the mosquito seemed to have enough, Wang Lin no longer picked more fruits. His right hand formed a seal and sent out a ray of spiritual energy. This energy landed on the flowers, causing them to release a golden glow. This glow was very blinding.
Wang Lin's eyes lit up. He didn't back up but instead slapped his bag of holding and took out a large amount of jades. He imprinted his divine sense onto each of the jades and placed one next to each flower.
Not far away, the woman named Qian Qin stared at Wang Lin with a confused expression. She didn't know why he wasn't picking the fruit but instead looked like he was setting up a formation.
"Could it be that to harvest the Brilliant Golden Fruit, a formation that is required?" The confusion in Qian Qin's eyes increased.
After placing down the last jade, the pondering expression in Wang Lin's eyes disappeared and was replaced with a sense of clarity.
"According to the memories of the ancient god, only after this fruit has naturally grown, naturally ripened, and naturally withered will the Golden Spirit Root form.
"However, I don't have the time to wait right now. The time it takes for the fruits to completely wither is random; it can take days or years. I don't have time to wait, so I have to use this spell from Tu Si's memory!
"An ancient god uses the bones of a demonic beast, but I'm using jades, so the effect may not be as good…" Wang Lin felt helpless about this. With how powerful the ancient gods were, all the materials they used were the best.
He faintly shook his hand and then raised it to form a very strange gesture. This gesture was not the seal of a cultivator, but something from the memory of ancient god Tu Si that had the effect of a catalyst. This was the gesture to activate the formation.
Wang Lin muttered, "Die!"
After he said that word, a ray of yellow light shot out from his left hand and landed on a jade. The moment the yellow light landed on the jade, the jade let out a high pitch shrill.
Shortly after, the jade exploded.
This scene caused Wang Lin to frown. Even Qian Qin, who was in the distance, was scared.
However, although the jade had exploded, the yellow light didn't disappear but became even stronger. When the jade exploded, the yellow light charged out and landed on another piece of jade.
After that there was a series of explosions. At almost the instant the yellow light touched a jade, it would cause it to explode to dust.
Wang Lin frowned even harder. After several breaths of time, the yellow light became stronger and stronger. It was now golden and was no different from the color of the flowers.
The golden light surrounded all the flowers, causing them to slowly shrink as if they were about to fall off their stems.
Not only the flowers, but even the Brilliant Golden Fruits began to shrink and slowly wither. Even the stem was the same; it was as if they were all being baked by intense heat.
This scene caused the mosquito beast to let out a series of sad cries and reveal a deep sense of sadness. If it wasn't for the fact that it trusted Wang Lin a lot, it would have already come down to steal the fruits.
As for Qian Qin, her heart hurt as she stared at the withering Brilliant Golden Fruits. Her heart bled and ached for the withering fruits.
Wang Lin's expression was normal, but his eyes were very serious as he silently stared at the withering Brilliant Golden Fruits. The entire atmosphere of the valley became heavy.
It didn't take long for all the golden flower petals to fall. However, the petals didn't fall like normal flowers. Instead, they melted into a golden liquid that fused with the ground.
After the petals came the Brilliant Golden Fruits. They also melted into drops of golden liquid that fused with the ground.
After that it was the stems. This whole process lasted half an incense stick of time. After that period of time, there was nothing left on the ground.
The mosquito let out a sad cry. Its head loosened and it began to pout in the air.
Wang Lin's eyes lit up as he walked toward where the Brilliant Golden Fruits once were. He looked at the ground and suddenly his eyes shined brightly. He squatted down and his right hand slowly dug into the ground. He let out a smile as he pulled his hand back and something that shined as brightly as the sun came up with his hand.
He had pulled out a mysterious object that looked like a ginseng with four whiskers and was glowing like the sun. When one looked at it, they would get a very warm feeling.
Wang Lin secretly thought, "Four whisker Golden Spirit Root! If I had let it form naturally, it could have at least reached five whiskers!"
The mosquito in the sky was completely stunned as it stared at the root in Wang Lin's hand. This kind of gaze had never appeared in its eyes before born. This gaze was filled with a hint of madness.
Qian Qin also had her small mouth opened as she stared at the root in Wang Lin's hand, and her mind went blank. At this moment, she finally understood that what she thought earlier was her own ignorance. The true use of this Brilliant Golden Fruit was to harvest its roots.
Wang Lin plucked one whisker and pressed it against his forehead. Shortly after, his expression changed.
This object was more effective than the Brilliant Golden Fruit and could make the metal element of the heaven defying bead increase a bit. However, the amount was simply too small. He calculated that even if he absorbed this entire root, it would only increase the metal element by 10%.
He let out a sigh as he plucked a whisker and threw it at the mosquito beast, whose eyes still contained that hint of madness and want but had restrained itself from charging down.
The mosquito let out a happy cry as it quickly flew to catch the whisker. With one suck, it completely swallowed the whisker.
Only two of the four whiskers were left!
After the mosquito devoured the whisker, the madness in its eyes slowly disappeared. This time, it began to glow, and unlike before, it didn't end and continued to glow.
Finally, the mosquito slowly curled up its wings and its entire body curled together. The golden light released from its body became even stronger until it formed a golden cocoon that completely surrounded the mosquito.
The golden cocoon slowly darkened as it completely surrounded the mosquito, making it so no one could see inside.
Wang Lin's eyes lit up and he forced his divine sense into the cocoon. After observing it a bit, he revealed a happy smile.
"After the mosquito has devoured so many treasures, it is finally going to evolve. Its strength should increase a lot this time."
Wang Lin's right hand reached out and the golden cocoon was put away into the bag of holding. After he put it away, he pondered a bit and waved his hand, causing a ray of green light to appear.
When the green light appeared, it turned into a giant thunder toad and landed with a thud. Its eyes were filled with laziness.
However, this laziness completely disappeared when it saw the two whiskers in Wang Lin's eyes. The lazy gaze turned into a serious stare.
Wang Lin faintly smiled, then he plucked one whisker and threw it at the thunder toad.
The thunder toad's stomach expanded and a red tongue shot out from its mouth. The whisker that was in the air disappeared without a trace. A thunderous roar came from the thunder toad, then it slowly began to close its eyes as if it was very tired.
Wang Lin pressed at the air and returned the thunder toad back to his bag of holding, then he looked at the woman, Qian Qin, who was still watching.
When Qian Qin noticed Wang Lin's gaze, her body trembled. She quickly bowed but didn't say a word.
"I was able to obtain this Golden Spirit Root thanks to your luck. You can take this last whisker!" With that, Wang Lin plucked the last whisker and put away the main root for his original body. He took one step, then his body turned into green gas and disappeared without a trace.
Qian Qin was startled and subconsciously caught the whisker floating toward her. Everything before her was like a dream; she wouldn't dare to believe it was all true.
When she turned her head, the man named Wang Lin was already gone without a trace.
Qian Qin stood there for a very long time before putting away the whisker. She walked up to her fellow sect member, then she let out a sigh and quickly left this place.
Wang Lin's body moved like lightning. It didn't take long before he crossed a mountain range and entered the depths of this land.
Here was where the short elder of the Da Lou Sword Sect was sitting in the lotus position on a giant tree with an extremely pale face. One inch away from between his brows was the half-moon blade, which seemed to just be floating there.
One inch above his head was the celestial sword; it was also just floating there. Although the sword was motionless, it gave off a powerful sword energy.
Chapter 514 - Destination, Eastern Sea!
After seeing Wang Lin arrive, the old man let out a sigh of relief.
"Fellow cultivator Wang Lin, if there is any problem, we can talk about it. This old man will tell you anything you want to know without a single lie!"
The short elder was helpless because his cultivation was weaker and his treasures were worse. Wang Lin didn't even have to chase him; all he had to do was throw two treasures at him and it was enough to drive him crazy.
The flying sword wasn't too bad. Although it was very sturdy, the sword energy wasn't too powerful. However, just this sturdiness was a big problem for him too. No matter what he tried, it had no effect on the flying sword. If it wasn't for the fact that he was running for his life, he would have done whatever it took to take it so he could study it.
What really caused the short elder to completely give up was this strange half-moon blade.
This half-moon blade was like a primordial war god that harvested lives. Its speed was too fast, and the entire time, it was extremely close to his head. It was as if it had a powerful hold on his neck, so no matter what he did, it would be difficult for him to escape death.
As a result, how could the short elder dare to run anymore? Just like this, with a blade and sword pointed at him, he waited for Wang Lin's arrival.
The bitterness in his heart was very strong. He regretted coming here with Shi Fang and offending this fiend.
He couldn't be bothered about whether Shi Fang was still alive or not; all he was worried about was how to save his own life.
Strands of grey gas moved around Wang Lin's finger as he stared at the old man. He calmly said, "Many years ago, when the sword saint returned from the Celestial Realm, was there anything abnormal? Hesitate and die! Lie and die! Say something different from what Shi Fang said or die!"
The short elder was startled, but he quickly blurted out, "When the revered Sword Saint returned, there was a terrifying sword spirit that had chased after him. It battled with the sword saint for many days before collapsing. The sword saint sealed away ? of the sword spirit deep within East Demon Spirit Sea."
Wang Lin's eyes lit up and he quickly asked, "What is so mysterious about the East Demon Spirit Sea?"
The short elder didn't dare to delay and said, "The East Demon Spirit Sea is one of the three great forbidden areas of planet Tian Yu. There are many ancient demons inside there. Every 10,000 years, the control of the gate to the area changes ownership. This time it belongs to my Da Lou Sword Sect. The gate is opened every 5,000 years, and every time it opens, every sect sends disciples to enter to capture ancient demons.
"Capturing ancient demons is only secondary. The main reason for the East Demon Spirit Sea is a trial, a bloody trial. Once one enters, the danger is extremely high!
"It can even be said that the fewer people that come out, the better, because the real benefit is when you leave, you will receive the Demon Spirit Inheritance!" At this moment, the short elder's eyes were filled with greed.
"Demon Spirit Inheritance?" Wang Lin's eyes narrowed.
This game will keep you awake all night long.Panzer.Quest strategy game
"That is correct. This Demon Spirit Inheritance can push cultivators' cultivation one whole level. If one receives it during the Dao Seeking stage, then it will decrease the risk and increase the chance of reaching the Ascendant stage by a lot!
"Of course, if one is already at the Ascendant stage, it will still help increase their cultivation level. If one is at the late stage of Ascendant, it might even help them take the step into the Incorporeal Yin and Corporeal Yang stages and obtain a body that can last for tens of thousands of years!
"This is why it is such a big deal for planet Tian Yun. There are many greedy people, but the East Demon Spirit Sea is very dangerous. If you want the benefits, then you must be willing to pay. Anyone that is allowed to enter is one of the most outstanding people of their generation!
"There is even a rumor that it is possible for only one person to come out. If… someone can do that, they will obtain a never-before-seen reward… a low quality celestial spell!"
Wang Lin pondered a bit and then his eyes lit up. With one thought, Xu Liguo seemed to notice, and the half-moon blade immediately lit up. In an instant, the half-moon blade penetrated the head of the short elder.
The short elder's body trembled, blood gushed out of his mouth, and his eyes dimmed. He pointed at Wang Lin as his eyes gradually closed, then he fell on the ground and remained motionless.
Wang Lin waved his right hand and the half-moon blade and celestial sword returned to his bag of holding. Then his body flickered and disappeared.
Three incense sticks of time after Wang Lin left, the short elder suddenly opened his eyes and the hole between them slowly closed.
He took a deep breath and looked dispirited. He turned around and looked viciously at the void and muttered to himself, "You want to kill me? Well, it's not that easy! This old man cultivates the three soul method, which allows me to survive death three times. I didn't think I would use my last one here! Wang Lin, once I return to the Da Lou Sword Sect, I'll definitely find a way to force you to your death to get my revenge for today!"
His eyes gave off cold light as he flew off into the distance.
However!
Just at the moment he moved, two strands of grey gas silently shot out from the jungle in the valley. Their speed was too fast, and they broke the sound barrier as they closed in.
The short elder's expression changed greatly, and without any hesitation, he shouted, "Scatter!"
With one word, a large amount of ripples appeared around his body to block the two strands of grey gas.
At the same time, the short elder's body took a step back. Half of his body entered the void and he was just about to teleport away, but he was too late.
The two strands of grey gas completely ignored the ripples and went directly through them. Like two wild chains, the strands of grey gas directly charged into the short elder's body.
The old man's face turned pale and let out a pitiful smile. He could feel the two strands of grey gas cycle like crazy inside his body, and with every cycle, he would lose some of his life force.
Wang Lin continued to moved in the depths of the Earth Northern Demonic Land. The grey gas around him would sometimes be thick and sometimes be thin. The most eye-catching was the several strands of grey gas that were constantly moving between his fingers.
As he flew, his expression suddenly changed. He looked behind him and let out a sneer.
Shortly after, a thick strand of grey gas came from behind Wang Lin and formed a ball of grey gas before him.
After taking one look at the ball, Wang Lin reached out to grab it. When he opened his hand, the ball of gas had disappeared.
Wang Lin moved like lightning, and as he flew, he turned into a giant cloud of grey gas as he charged into the depths of the Earth Northern Demonic Land.
"Time waits for no one! The East Demon Spirit Sea will be the perfect place for me the practice the Celestial Slaughter Art. This is one of the reasons for going!
"Zhou Yi has helped me before, and now he is trapped in the East Demon Spirit Sea. There are a few people who I owe, and I'll repay them all. I must go to try and help him. This is the second reason for going!
"Master All-Seer cares about the heavenly fate and would not do anything without reason. If he wants me to go, he must have his reasons. If I don't go, I'll be going against fate, and that would make it hard to get a foothold on planet Tian Yun. This is the third reason for going!"
"I just don't know if I'll have the luck to find something that can help increase the metal element in the heaven defying bead. If the heaven defying bead is complete, it will probably have great benefits for Wan Er and might even awaken her…" Wang Lin touched his forehead and revealed a gentle look of reminiscence.
While thinking about Li Muwan, Wang Lin felt a hint of warmth in his cold heart. Li Muwan was the only one who walked into his heart and came with him to planet Tian Yun.
"Wan Er…" Wang Lin pondered a bit before letting out a sigh, then his body turned into grey gas and disappeared.
The deeper one goes into the Earth Northern Demonic Land, the stronger the demonic beasts becomes. In the inner 150,000 kilometers, there are even desolate beasts as strong as Ascendant cultivators.
In the last 10 days, the Earth Northern Demonic Land was covered in endless grey gas. Strands of grey gas rose from the ground and took life away with it.
However, this grey gas never went within 150,000 kilometers of the center, so the desolate beasts didn't bother with it. This grey gas also only lasted for a mere 10 days before disappearing, so it didn't cause any lasting effect.
Ten days later, there were only 6 days left before the opening of the East Demon Spirit Sea, so Wang Lin left this area!
In contrast to 10 days ago, there was now a very well hidden killing intent and a hint of grey gas moving inside his eyes. The most eye-catching were the five strands of grey gas moving between his fingers that were emitting the sound of howling wind.
This sound seemed to contain a mysterious power, and anyone that heard it would have their attention drawn by it.
"The Celestial Slaughter Art can be considered to be at the small completion stage!" Wang Lin's expression was calm as he walked out of the Earth Northern Demonic Land and looked up at the sky.
"Transforming life force into seals is difficult. In this trip, I was only able to make three seals."
A grey symbol appeared on Wang Lin's forehead. This symbol wasn't complex, it was filled with life force. After the symbol appeared, it immediately began to spread, and it covered his body in an instant.
Shortly after, another identical symbol appeared and covered his body. With a total of three flashes, three symbols covered his body.
Wang Lin lowered his head to look at his body, then he formed a sword with his finger and waved his finger. There was a grinding sound from the point of contact, but the finger didn't pierce through.
"East Sea…" Wang Lin looked into the distance and revealed a look of determination.
Chapter 515 - Why The East Sea
There is a mysterious place in the void in planet Tian Yun's vicinity.
From a distance, this just looks like a place where a lot of floating objects have gathered, an endless sea of floating objects.
There are only two colors here: green and red. All of the floating things here are these two colors.
Every 5,000 years, this sea of floating stuff emits a mysterious power, and a lot of mysterious things are absorbed into this sea by this power.
Among these mysterious things are corpses and treasures. Anything and everything can be absorbed.
This place is like a giant treasure trove that only absorbs and never emits. If you want the treasures, you must go inside!
No one knows how this place was formed. Rumor has it that when planet Tian Yun came to be, this place had already existed for a long time.
Some people say that this place was a palace of a powerful celestial general. Later, when the Celestial Realm collapsed, it was somehow impacted and turned into ruins. However, this ruin that everyone sees is only a state created by a powerful spell. If one is fortunate enough to go inside, they can definitely recover the celestial palace.
There are even rumors that this place is a tunnel that links to another space. Maybe people can find a passage to the realm beyond the Celestial Realm here.
Overall, there are countless rumors about this place, and every one of these rumors are filled with confidence as if they have some definitive facts.
This sea of unknown origin is on the eastern side of planet Tian Yun, so after a long time, it was referred to as the East Sea!
Back when the All-Seer first completed his dao, he invited several friends, including Sword Saint Ling Tianhou before their relationship broke down, and explored this place three times!
The first two times they came back empty-handed, but on the third time, only half of the people that went returned!
It was also after that time that Sword Saint Ling Tianhou's and the All-Seer's friendship broke apart. Even until now, they have never talked about what happened on that third expedition.
However, after that time, the All-Seer said one thing!
"There is an ancient demon inside there. From today onward, this place belongs to my planet Tian Tun, and this place will be called the gate to the East Demon Spirit Sea!"
WESTERポイント最大1000pt!「WESTER」ダウンロードは今がチャンス!西日本の暮らしがおトク・便利・楽しくなるアプリ 「WESTER」.今ならダウンロードと条件クリアでWEST…移動生活ナビアプリWESTER
The words "ancient demon" spread during that time and were remembered by countless people.
Even someone from the Cultivation Alliance came to check the East Demon Spirit Sea. However, in regards to letting outsiders enter the East Demon Spirit Sea, the All-Seer, Ling Tianhou, and all the other old monsters around had a rare, uniform opinion about it.
They would never allow anyone from the outside to enter. This place was the forbidden area of planet Tian Yun!
After the situation stayed like this for a very long time, this East Demon Spirit Sea just naturally became a forbidden area that belonged to planet Tian Yun.
There aren't many mysterious places like the East Demon Spirit Sea, but they aren't very rare either. The Cultivation Alliance doesn't want to have a bad relationship with the cultivators of planet Tian Yun over such a place, because for them, it is not worth it.
The opening of the East Demon Spirit Sea every 5,000 years is a big event for planet Tian Yun. At the moment it opens, there will be a tide phase that lasts for several months!
The tide phase is when the mysterious power from within the East Demon Spirit Sea spreads out across a very large area. As long as the cultivators are there, they can see that countless treasures, countless spells, countless corpses of demonic beasts, and countless strange things are pulled and absorbed into the East Demon Spirit Sea.
Every time it opens, all the old monsters around Tian Yun send in their disciples. Although it is very dangerous, it only opens once every 5,000 years. It is too good of an opportunity to miss, so might as well risk it!
Every time the gate to the East Demon Spirit Sea opens, a large amount of people enter. On the lower end, there are a few hundred, but on the upper end, there are more than 1,000. The weakest are at the Soul Transformation stage, while the strongest are people who have touched the Yin and Yang stage.
That is the highest cultivation level allowed, because planet Tian Yun has a very strict requirement on people who can enter. Anyone above the Ascendant stage is definitely not allowed to enter.
After all, this place is used for training everyone's disciples. Even when it is open, it is only half open so they won't all die inside.
However, nothing is absolute, and everything depends on what gets sucked in during the tide phase. If there was something so heaven defying that it would even tempt these old monsters, then the East Demon Spirit Sea would become very lively.
At this moment, there are still five days until the East Demon Spirit Sea opens.
But there were already countless cultivators outside the East Demon Spirit Sea. These cultivators were all people who were going to enter this time around. They were wearing various different clothing, and although they mingled, the distinction between each sect was very clear. The disciples of each sect were all grouped together and it was very lively.
As time passed, more and more cultivators appeared outside the East Demon Spirit Sea. Even some old monsters that never showed their faces had come with their disciples. Every time one of them appeared, it would cause an uproar among the cultivators. All of the cultivators would make way, as they didn't dare to block these people's path.
On this day, a ray of red light almost covered the entire area outside the East Demon Spirit Sea. At the same time, a thick smell of blood spread across the area. This caused the surroundings to look like a world of blood.
"Blood Planet's ancestor!" Some cultivators immediately recognized the person from the smell of blood. At this moment, everyone stopped their chattering.
From within the blood-red light, a giant, blood-red jade slowly floated toward the East Demon Spirit Sea. On the top of the giant jade sat a woman. She had red phoenix eyes, her beautiful brows contained killing intent, and she was wearing a white robe that when compared to the blood-red jade below her, it created a powerful visual contrast.
Although she was sitting in the lotus position, one could still see her slim figure. She had a head of silky, black hair, a tender and white sunflower seed face, skin as smooth as crystal, an exquisite nose, and her red phoenix eyes glowed like the blazing sun shining on the lake on the surface but contained well-hidden depth and coldness within. If one were to accidently get caught inside her eyes, they would be out of luck…
She sat on the blood jade and flew over. Everyone who saw her moved out of the away, allowing her to reach the outside of the East Demon Spirit Sea. She stopped in an empty area.
Along the way, the woman didn't say a word. When the blood jade finally stopped, she closed her eyes and began cultivating.
"Blood Ancestor's daughter, Yao Xixue!" Some cultivators immediately recognized her.
Blood Ancestor Yao Xinghai was a famous old monster around planet Tian Yun. This person's cultivation level was really high. He has challenged the All-Seer total of seven times, and although he lost all seven times, his cultivation level was higher each time. Especially the seventh time, when he showed off his terrifying blood spells.
This person owned his own cultivation planet around planet Tian Yun. He captured natives to provide him with blood to cultivate his demonic techniques.
This Yao Xinghai has never accepted any disciple except for one girl. This girl was his beloved daughter. He taught her all of his techniques and even helped change her life by defying the heavens to allow her bloodline power to awaken.
This father and daughter duo spends most of their time on the Blood Planet and never interacts with anyone. But the more they stay isolated, the less people are willing to mess with them.
Let's not talk about the matter here for now. On Earth Planet, one of the five planets orbiting planet Tian Yun, outside the large transfer array in the Xuan Yuan Sect, the junior master of the Xuan Yuan Sect, Xu Yunshan, was silently standing there. Although he looked calm, he was constantly hitting his palm with the fan in his hand and looking at the distance.
Behind him followed three people!
These three people were all white-haired old men. Although they wore simple clothes, they gave off a terrifying aura, making it feel like the air around them was becoming thin.
On the outer rim of the transfer array sat several hundred Xuan Yuan Sect disciples. They were sitting at various corners of the transfor array and were silently cultivating. They were waiting for the command to use the spiritual energy inside their bodies to stimulate the Celestial Energy inside the transfer array to activate it.
As Sun Yunshan softly tapped the jade fan in his hand, his face was without any hint of impatience and was still calm.
Not long after, a ray of pink light came from the horizon. Sun Yunshan frowned and revealed a look of helplessness. He then put away the fan and looked at the pink light.
The pink light was extremely fast, and in the blink of an eye, it arrived. The light made a circle around the area before landing 10 feet away from Sun Yunshan, revealing a girl in her 20s.
This girl was wearing a pink dress and her skin was as smooth and clear as crystal; she was like a person made of jade. She gave off a fragrance that would cause people to be completely intoxicated by her.
The girl puffed her cheeks and quickly said, "Elder brother, you promised me that as long as I could make it, you would let me go!"
Sun Yunshan looked at her and shouted, "What nonsense! The East Demon Spirit Sea is not a place you can go with your cultivation level! Although father is in closed door cultivation, he has already ordered that you are not allowed to go! Xuan Yi, bring her back to the sect!"
One of the old men behind Sun Yunshan took a step forward and stood next to the girl. He clasped his hands and said, "My lady, please don't make it hard for Xuan Yi."
The girl snorted. She didn't even look at Xuan Yi; she looked at Sun Yunshan and said, "Mother agreed!"
Sun Yunshan was about to speak, but his expression suddenly changed. He no longer bothered with the girl as he looked at the horizon and revealed a smile.
"Brother Wang, I have been waiting for you!"
Chapter 516 - Greed's Trip
After Sun Yunshan finished speaking, a ray of purple light rushed over like lightning. It quickly closed in, landed on the ground, and revealed Wang Lin inside.
Wang Lin faintly smiled and clasped his hands. "I was met with a little delay on the way here. I didn't think brother Sun would be waiting."
Sun Yunshan laughed and said, "No problem. I was originally going to head to the East Demon Spirit Sea yesterday but heard that brother Wang was someone the All-Seer picked to go. I thought about it and decided to wait a few days for brother Wang so we could go together. I'm not in a rush."
Wang Lin gave him a warm smile and said, "Thank you for your consideration." With that, he looked at the people around Sun Yunshan.
Sun Yunshan laughed. "These three are the Xuan Yuan Sect's elders responsible for my safety, as my cultivation can't match brother Wang's. Ah, if it wasn't for Father's order, I wouldn't go to the East Demon Spirit Sea."
Wang Lin smiled. "Brother Sun is funny!"
As for the girl wearing pink, her gaze shifted as she stared at Wang Lin and showed a hint of surprise.
Sun Yunshan pointed at the girl and said, "Brother Wang, this is my little sister, Sun Rounan!" With that, he gave her a stare and shouted, "This is the All-Seer's core disciple, Wang Lin. Why haven't you greet him yet?!"
Sun Rounan wrinkled her nose as she greeted Wang Lin with her voice that was like a bird singing. "Rounan greet elder brother Wang!"
Wang Lin smiled and nodded. He didn't take more than one look at her before his gaze fell on the transfer array.
Sun Yunshan was very smart and naturally knew Wang Lin's thoughts, so he said, "Brother Wang, it is getting late, so let us get going!"
Wang Lin nodded, then the two of them walked side by side toward the center of the transfer array.
As Sun Yunshan walked, he didn't even turn his head and as he slowly said, "Xuan Yi, come back!"
Xuan Yi didn't say a word as he turned around and walked toward the transfer array along with the other two elders. The only one left outside the transfer array was the pink-dressed girl. She stomped her feet and shouted toward Sun Yunshan, "Big Brother, just let me go!"
Sun Yunshan said, without any hesitation, "No!"
"Activate the array!"
After the shout, the hundreds of disciples outside the transfer array opened their eyes and started using their spiritual energy, causing a large amount of spiritual energy to enter the array.
This array wasn't a normal array but one that sent people into space. The amount of celestial jades and spirit stones required to activate this array was enormous.
A series of rumbling sounds came from the array as a powerful force began to spread out from it like a shockwave.
Those hundreds of disciples' clothes were blown back and created a lot of flapping noises. Their faces were all pale, but none of them moved an inch.

Shortly after, a rainbow hundreds of feet wide suddenly shot upwards and pierced into the sky. Rings of light began to spread out in the sky and a majority of the sky on the planet was covered by this ripple of rings.
The ripples lasted for half a incense stick of time before disappearing.
At the moment the rainbow shot into the sky, the girl next to the array revealed a hint of pride. Her right hand touched her bag of holding and a jade appeared in her grasp.
"Hmph, if you don't want me to go, then I'll just follow you guys secretly! I stole Dad's Thousand Transfer jade, and with it, I can follow along. Maybe I'll even find some treasures in the East Sea!"
The moment the jade appeared in her hand, it released a white light and surrounded the girl in an instant. With a flash of white light, her body turned into a strand of white light and fused with the rainbow.
East of planet Tian Yun, location of the gate to the East Demon Spirit Sea.
There were only three days until it would open!
The number of surrounding cultivators had increased to a frightening amount; there were at least 10,000 people here. However, among all these cultivators, not all of them were going to go inside. In fact, a majority of the people present were just here to view the tide phase.
After all, this only happened once every 5,000 years, and for some cultivators, that was their entire life.
If one can't step into the Yin and Yang stage and break past the first step, they can't live for 5,000 years.
Even old monsters that rarely appeared were here outside the East Demon Spirit Sea. Some of these old monsters came by themselves, some had their disciples with them. Every one of them that appeared caused an uproar and took an area for themselves.
But the more they acted like this, the fewer people would be willing to offend them.
Luckily, these people all knew each other, so even if they took an area, no one would mess with each other. For example, the Blood Ancestor's daughter, Yao Xixue. No one has taken a step into the area 1,000 feet around her.
On this day, there were only two days until the gate would open.
A large amount of specks of light appeared in the void. There were simply too many specks of light, so it looked like all the stars in space were charging toward this location.
Just these lights created a powerful pressure like a huge storm was about to arrive.
At this moment, aside from the famous old monsters, all the other cultivators' expressions changed. Even the Blood Ancestor's daughter, Yao Xixue, opened her eyes to look at the endless specks of golden light.
Yao Xixue softly muttered, "Sword Saint…"
The golden specks coming from the distance turned into ancient swords. Then rays of sword energy suddenly closed in, creating a powerful pressure. As they closed in, all of the cultivators around the East Demon Spirit Sea entrance moved out of the way.
This scene was more grand than any of the other old monsters that arrived.
Among the large amount of sword energy, there was a giant Qilin beast. Sword Saint Ling Tianhou was sitting on the head of the Qilin, and his eyes were as bright as torches.
Behind him were four flashing illusionary swords, making him look even more fierce.
There were 12 people behind the Sword Saint!
These 12 people each had an ancient sword on their back. There were illusions of various beasts coming from each sword, forming the 12 beasts.
"The 12 Swords!" Some of the people here recognized these 12 people.
All of the people of planet Tian Yun knew that Sword Saint Ling Tianhou was always in competition with the All-Seer. It has gone on for countless years and it still continues.
The All-Seer was already one head above the Sword Saint, but the Sword Saint was never discouraged and never stopped.
The All-Seer had the Seven Heavenly Fate disciples, and he went on to make the Da Lou Sword Sect's 12 Swords!
The Seven Heavenly Fate disciples had celestial spell inheritances, while the 12 Swords had demonic beast spirits protecting them.
The moment the Sword Saint arrived, a large opening of 50 kilometers immediately opened up, and within it was only the Sword Saint and his 12 disciples.
Ling Tianhou's expression was very gloomy. He originally wouldn't come here this early, but this trip was very important to him. He looked at the sea of floating stuff and revealed a look of reminiscence.
Back then, when he returned from the Celestial Realm, that sword spirit chased after him. What shocked him the most was how powerful the sword spirit was. In the end, he lured it here and used a special spell to trap it inside the East Demon Spirit Sea.
This time he was going to borrow the power of the tide phase to drag the sword spirit into the depths of the East Demon Spirit Sea so that it can never return.
"That sword spirit belonged to that female celestial general. Although it is very powerful, it won't listen to me. Since it won't listen to me, then no one else can have it, especially that old thief, the All-Seer!" Ling Tianhou let out a soft snort and revealed a gloomy expression.
Ling Tianhou was thinking when his expression suddenly changed. He looked into the void and revealed a mysterious light.
A large cloud of cold air suddenly appeared in space. This cold cloud was dark green and was filled with skulls. There were countless skulls inside this dark green cloud, at least 1,000!
There was even some flesh still remaining on some of the skulls.
Among those skulls, there was one that was very large. This was clearly the skull of a primordial beast. On top of this giant skull sat a middle-aged man.
This person was surrounded by a death aura that obstructed his figure. The images of skulls flashed all around him; they seemed to be endless like a forest of skulls.
Along the way, he charged directly through, not bothering about anyone else, and directly entered the 50 kilometer area around Sword Saint Ling Tianhou that no one else dared to enter.
The middle-aged man surrounded by the dearth aura and sitting on the giant skull let out a raspy laugh. "Old friend Ling Tian!"
Sword Saint Ling Tianhou faintly smiled and said, "Greed!"
This Greed was the one on planet Suzaku that wanted to devour ancient cultivators to recover his cultivation. He also wanted to find where that divine retribution came from and unknowingly was looking for Wang Lin.
This person was one of the main culprits that tried to steal the heaven defying bead from Situ Nan.
In order to avoid Situ Nan, he escaped here to find his old friend, Sword Saint Ling Tianhou.
"How did you become so seriously injured?" Sword Saint Ling Tianhou was able to immediately see that Greed's injures still hadn't recovered.
Greed's eyes give off a ghostly light as he slowly said, "It's a long story. I went to the Da Lou Sword Sect to look for you. When I heard that you were here, I quickly rushed here and wanted to give you a great opportunity! If you and I team up, then you will be able to be one head above old man All-Seer!"
Chapter 517 - Greed's Thoughts
Sword Saint Ling Tianhou's eyes lit up and he slowly asked, "What kind of fortune would make you, Greed, care so much about it?"
Greed pondered a bit, then he clenched his teeth as he looked at Sword Saint Ling Tianhou and whispered, "Does Sword Saint remember when the Cultivation Alliance sent out a notice looking for an item tens of thousands of years ago? This item is a bead, and the reward is a complete high quality celestial spell! This is a high quality celestial spell, the biggest reward the Cultivation Alliance has ever offered! According to my sources, there aren't more than 10 complete high quality celestial spells within the Cultivation Alliance!"
Ling Tianhou's eyes became serious and he slowly asked, "Are your injuries related to this bead?"
Greed nodded and bitterly smiled. "Let's not talk about the past. It was because my cultivation wasn't strong enough. However, if Sword Saint acts, then it will definitely be easy!"
Sword Saint Ling Tianhou raised his head as he looked into the void. After a long time, he said, "It won't be too late to talk about it after the East Demon Spirit Sea is over, but before that, you have to help me with one matter, Greed!"
Greed's eyes lit up and he said, "What does the Sword Saint need me to do?"
Sword Saint Ling Tianhou seriously said, "Go into the East Demon Spirit Sea and protect my 12 disciples until they complete the secret mission I gave them. If you can do that, then I'll help you."
Greed's expression sank. "Ling Tianhou, what do you mean by help me?" he asked.
Ling Tianhou turned to look at Greed. His face was expressionless as he calmly said, "Greed, when I was making my name among the stars, you hadn't even started cultivating. Your scheme is clear before my eyes. If you hadn't been forced to by the owner of the bead, why would you rush here to find me? If I were to push you away now, I'm afraid that shortly after, we would be separated by life and dead!"
Greed pondered. After a while, he smiled and said, "Sword Saint worries too much. As long as I'm there, I promise to keep your disciples safe! However, I heard that the gate to the East Demon Spirit Sea is mysterious, so I don't know if I can enter with my cultivation…"
Ling Tianhou calmly said, "You don't have to worry about it. You are injured, and it is my turn to open the gate, so I'll naturally let you in."
Greed nodded and no longer spoke.
As the two people spoke, a large, seven-colored cloud came from the distance.
Greed's eyes lit up and then he completely disappeared. If one looked closely, they would see that he had turned into a shadow that stayed very close to Sword Saint Ling Tianhou and remained motionless.
Before the seven-colored cloud closed in, a sense of peace surrounded the area. From inside the seven-colored cloud, a white-robed All-Seer slowly walked over.
As the All-Seer walked over, he smiled and nodded at people he knew. Behind him were nine people.
These nine people were wearing robes of different colors, but their eyes were all sharp like lightning and they each had powerful cultivation. Among them was someone who fought with Wang Lin for the title of the Purple Division's true disciple, Wang Lin's sixth brother, Chen Tao!
The current Chen Tao was wearing a purple robe and gave off a powerful pressure. He was like a sword that was about to be drawn, releasing its sharpness.
The All-Seer's group of 10 calmly moved toward the gate. Every cultivator respectfully made way, and the scene was even more grand than when Sword Saint Ling Tianhou arrived.
In the blink of an eye, the All-Seer's group arrived before the gate. They were only about 1,000 feet from Ling Tianhou's group. Everyone's gazes were locked onto these two groups.
In addition to those people, all of the various old monsters were looking over at Ling Tianhou and the All-Seer with expressions of watching a good show.
At this moment, it could be said that almost all of the powerful cultivators from planet Tian Yun and the surrounding planets were here. What was gathered here was almost the full power of the rank 7 cultivation plant of Tian Yun.
Only one more day until the grand event that only happened once every 5,000 years!
When the gate opens the tide, which will be an unforgettable scene for anyone seeing it for the first time, this trip to the East Demon Spirit Sea will reach a new height. After that, it will be time for the cruel trial inside!
The All-Seer's expression was neutral as he stood there and many cultivators came to greet him. As he talked, his eyes occasionally looked into the distance as if he was looking for something.
The nine disciples behind him all had their own friends and were chatting with them. All besides Chen Tao, who was also occasionally looking around as if he was looking for something.
"Why isn't he here…" Chen Tao frowned slightly.
The final day before the East Demon Spirit Sea's opening slowly passed.
Today was when the grand event would start, today was when the East Demon Spirit Sea was going to open!
The sea of floating stuff that was called the East Demon Spirit Sea began to change. The speed at which all the stuff was moving through space became notably faster.
This change attracted the attention of all the surrounding cultivators.
Just at this moment, Chen Tao's eyes suddenly lit up as he turned to look into the distance, and he slowly revealed a smile.
Several rays of light came from the distance. Their arrival didn't attract the attention of the other cultivators, but Chen Tao's eyes locked onto a purple figure.
"Seventh Brother…" Chen Tao's eyes revealed a mysterious light.
As the All-Seer casually looked at the purple figure, he let out a faint smile but didn't say a word.
When Wang Lin saw the All-Seer's group from a distance, he clasped his hands and said, "Brother Sun, I need to go meet with my master, so we will part ways here. If there is a chance, we will meet inside the East Demon Spirit Sea!"
Sun Yunshan's face was covered with dust. They clearly had to rush at full speed to make it here on time. He smiled gently and said, "After we enter, I'll depend on brother Wang to look out for me!"
"No problem!" Wang Lin faintly smiled as he took a step and turned into a cloud of purple smoke before flying toward the All-Seer.
Wang Lin moved like lightning toward the All-Seer, and before he got close, people heard the sound barrier breaking. His expression was calm, and there was a hint of grey gas in his eyes. His appearance right now wasn't anyway weaker than the current Chen Tao's.
His movement immediately caught the attention of some cultivators. When they saw his purple robe and token, some well connected cultivators immediately guessed his identity.
"The Heavenly Fate Sect's Purple Division's seventh disciple, Wang Lin!"
Yao Xixue, who was sitting on the giant, red jade, opened her eyes to look at Wang Lin. After taking a few glances, she withdrew her gaze.
Yao Xixu secretly thought, "I don't know why Father asked me to pay extra attention to the new disciple of the Heavenly Fate Sect. This person's cultivation is normal, and it doesn't look like there is anything outstanding about him… However, to be able to selected by the All-Seer to come here right after joining the Heavenly Fate Sect is indeed shocking."
Wang Lin flew straight forward and arrived before the All-Seer shortly after. He respectfully said, "Disciple Wang Lin greets Master!"
The All-Seer smiled and said, "Stand properly behind Master. This once in every 5,000 years grand event is about to happen, so pay attention. Maybe a treasure fated for you will appear as well!"
After the All-Seer finished speaking, he meaningfully looked at Wang Lin and then no longer spoke.
Wang Lin nodded in response, then he stood behind the All-Seer and formed a row with the other nine disciples.
These nine disciples' gazes all landed on Wang Lin. Aside from Chen Tao, whose eyes contained a hint of a mysterious light, everyone else's gazes were emotionless; it was as if they were looking at a stranger.
Wang Lin didn't carefully look at these nine people. He casually glanced at them and knew that there were three women and six men.
Sword Saint Ling Tianhous's eyes became a bit serious when Wang Lin arrived. He had always felt like this child was a bit familiar ever since he saw him at the All-Seer's birthday celebration, but no matter what, he couldn't remember.
"Eh?" Greed's exclamation came from behind Sword Saint Ling Tianhou.
Ling Tianhou softly asked, "You know this child?"
"I don't know this child, but he gives off a familiar feeling… Maybe he is the descendent of an old friend…" Greed's eyes lit up brightly, but he immediately hid it.
Wang Lin's appearance also attracted the attention of the famous old monsters. The only reason they were paying attention to Wang Lin was because the All-Seer would never accept a disciple for no reason. The All-Seer left everything to fate, and if it wasn't fated, then there was no way he would accept a disciple.
They just didn't know if the fate was for him or the other disciples.
Just at this moment, a soft rumbling came from the East Sea. This rumbling was like throwing rocks in a calm pond, creating waves of ripples.
At this moment, the gazes of over 10,000 cultivators focused on the sea of floating stuff, and the entire area was silent.
Among the surrounding cultivators, some of them had seen the once in every 5,000 years tide phase more than once. However, instead of making them more calm, their hearts trembled even more each time.
Almost all of the cultivators that had seen the tide phase were sure that this East Sea must have been an amazing place before turning into what it was now.
Otherwise, there would be no way for it to create such a shocking tide phase. This was like a mystery that still hovered over the heads of the people of planet Tian Yun.
Chapter 518 - Tide Phase
The tide phase of the East Demon Spirit Sea began. As the sea began to move faster, the rumbling sounds got even louder. In the end, the rumblings linked together and seemed to extend up to the heavens and down into the void. Soon, the entire area was filled with a loud rumble.
The entire sea of floating stuff was bubbling like lava. All of the things were moving around like they were ancient ghosts trying to escape their prison.
The rumbling sound had already spread across the endless space. This sound was so loud that it echoed endlessly inside the ears of the surrounding cultivators.
Wang Lin's eyes became serious as he looked at the endless sea of floating stuff.
This was the first time he had seen this place, so everything here was foreign to him. Everything he knew about his place, he had heard from others or from Sun Yunshan on their way here.
Even the tide phase was something he had only heard about but had never seen before.
"I have to carefully observe this tide phase that only happens once every 5,000 years to see what's so mysterious about it." Wang Lin's eyes lit up.
At this moment, everyone's gazes gathered on the endless sea of floating stuff. The rumbling sound got louder and louder until finally, a sharp roar came from inside the sea.
This roar was very painful to the ears; it was like the howling of a ghost. At this moment, all of the floating stuff trembled and began to spin due to a mysterious force.
This spinning was terrifying; it was as if the entire star system was spinning. Some of the cultivators with lower cultivation levels couldn't help but float toward the spinning sea. If it wasn't for the people beside them pulling them back, they would have fused with that sea.

Wang Lin's eyes were calm and his dao heart was sturdy, so he won't be pulled in by this kind of spinning.
As the East Sea spun, the roar became even more ear-piercing than before. The roar had already surpassed the rumbling. Finally, a green gas began to spread out from all the stuff inside the East Demon Spirit Sea.
The moment the gas appeared, it began to spread out. In the blink of an eye, the outside of the sea was already surrounded by the green gas.
However, the green gas immediately began to boil and then it gathered at the center. It was as if there was a powerful force pressing from all sides, causing the green gas and the floating stuff to gather at the center in an instant.
The entire space suddenly shook as all the green gas and floating stuff gathered together to form a mysterious spring opening.
This mouth of a spring was not static but continued to grow as things gathered from all directions. It became wider and taller until it was more than 1,000 feet tall.
Sword Saint Ling Tianhou's eyes revealed a mysterious light and he muttered to himself, "It has begun…"
"I wonder what will be attracted here this time…" There was a flash of seven-colored light in the All-Seer's calm eyes.
At this moment, all of the cultivators that had seen the East Demon Spirit Sea open once before had their gazes deadlocked at the opening of the spring.
This green column was like a pillar that seemed to be holding up space itself. It kept growing taller until it reached the limit of the divine sense's range.
At this moment, Wang Lin revealed a shocked expression. As the green column continued to grow longer, a pressure like the heavens' might slowly began to spread out from it.
Just this sliver of the heavens' might made Wang Lin feel like there were 10,000 mountains pressing down on top of him. There was a cracking sound coming from his body, making it seem like he was about to collapse at any time.
"Very powerful!" Wang Lin's eyes revealed an unyielding look. A grey gas appeared between his brows and then turned into a tattoo that quickly covered his body.
As a result, the pressure reached a point where he could withstand it.
Since Wang Lin was like this, it's obvious that many of the surrounding cultivators were worse. Their faces were extremely pale, and they were forced to retreat. If it wasn't for their elders and masters being there to withstand the pressure for them, many of them would have collapsed and died!
Just at this moment, a scene that would be hard for many cultivators to forget in their lifetime suddenly began to unfold.
The giant, green pillar suddenly collapsed and rays of red light continued to shoot out from it. The rays of red light spread out like crazy; they even went through the bodies of the surrounding cultivators and went deep into space.
As the green pillar continued to collapse, more and more rays of red light were released. The red light spread out at an unimaginable speed.
At this moment, if you look at it from another angle, the East Demon Spirit Sea, one of the three forbidden areas of planet Tian Yun, was covered in green and red light.
The green light was slowly disappearing and being replace by red light. This red wasn't blood red; it was more like the red of the blazing sun.
This red light spread out like light from the sun with the East Demon Spirit Sea as the center; the light spread endlessly in all directions.
As for exactly how far the red light spread out, no one but a few select individuals knew.
Some of the deserted planets far away from planet Tian Yun were covered by this red light. Even the farther away planet Suzaku was affected. The current Suzaku, Zhou Wutai, was cultivating when he opened his eyes to find that the sky was completely red.
Even farther away, more planets were covered by this red light.
There was no way to clearly calculate how far this red light that only came out from the East Demon Spirit Sea once every 5,000 years spread each time.
At this moment, the red light suddenly stopped spreading as if it had reached a limit. However, a heaven-shaking thing was happening at all the places the red light reached.
Among the stars, planets, and space, everything from treasures, jades, spirit stones, celestial jades, corpses, ancient swords, treasure remnants, celestial spells, ancient cultivation treasures, and various other things, no matter where they were, as long as they were in the range of the red light and without an owner, they began to tremble!
