The two arms formed by the red fog seemed to contain endless power and had killed countless cultivators to make him famous.

However, facing Wang Lin's palm, they were destroyed like withered wood!

The moment the two arms touched the palm print, they immediately collapsed. The first palm print rapidly descended and touched the red fog around the red-robed man!

The fog scattered and the red-robed man inside roared and bit the tip of his tongue to spit out blood. He raised his arms to collide with the palm print once more.

"Devil Dao Blood Body!" The red-robed man's expression was fierce and revealed a hint of madness. Blood erupted from the 36,000 pores on his body and covered him to form a blood body!!

There was an extremely pure Devil Dao aura coming from his blood body. His left hand contained dao and his right hand contained devil. When his arms pushed out, the first palm print collapsed before him!

When the palm print collapsed, the red-robed man coughed out blood, but the blood was immediately absorbed by him. He retreated several steps and the second palm print landed.

The red-robed man's hair was scattered and he seemed to have lost his mind. The only thing that remained was his unwillingness to die and a sense of madness. His legs began to rapidly wither and his blood and flesh began to move. All of his flesh and essences seemed to gather in his arms.

His arms suddenly expanded several folds, making for an extremely shocking sight!

Wang Lin had seen Big Head use this kind of spell before, but it was not nearly as amazing as the red-robed man's. Not only did his legs wither, but even his body withered. All the flesh and blood gathered in his arms and smashed into the second palm print in the sky!

Thunderous rumbles shook the world. The second palm print created by the five-element true body collided with the red-robed man. The palm print collapsed and the red-robed man's body trembled. He continued to step back, and his left arm exploded into a mist of blood.

His eyes were filled with despair. When the third palm print closed in, he let out the last roar of his life. He knew he could not escape, but he wanted to fight!

In a flash, he rushed into the sky toward the third palm print. His soul began to burn and his origin soul gave off a destructive aura. At this moment of life or death, he decided to burn his life in exchange for a surge in power!

His cultivation level increased from Void Tribulant Exalt like crazy as he burned his life force. When the third palm print closed in, his cultivation leaped into Golden Exalt!!

The moment he became a Golden Exalt, the third palm print collided with him and a thunderous rumble echoed. The thunder palm print collapsed, but this was just ordinary thunder, not slaughter thunder.

After the palm print scattered, the red-robed man had a crazed look. His body was a bloody mess, but he didn't die. He stared at Wang Lin and knew he only had 10 breaths left to live. After 10 breaths, he would die, and Wang Lin wouldn't have to do anything!

However, the only thought in his mind was that death was the price for 10 breaths of Golden Exalt strength to kill Wang Lin, who had forced him into this situation.

Without hesitation, he charged at Wang Lin!

"Die!" He let out a fierce roar filled with killing intent, and he closed in on Wang Lin on the second breath!

Wang Lin didn't dodge, he just coldly looked at the red-robed man.

"You're qualified for me to use 70% of my power!" Wang Lin muttered as the red-robed man closed in. He raised his right hand and the Yin Blade retracted. His eyes lit up and his five-element true body and thunder essence true body fused with him. Then he threw a punch at the red-robed man!

This punch was 70% of Wang Lin's power. This punch was a fusion of his Ancient Dao and Void Tribulant cultivation, with the celestial vein releasing 70% of its power!

The punch looked powerless, but it caused the world to change colors and tremble. The void between the two of them distorted and ripples echoed. Wang Lin's punch seemed to exceed time and space as it landed on the red-robed man's chest.

The Golden Exalt red-robed man's body trembled. He revealed a bitter smile as his body exploded!

He still had seven more breaths of Golden Exalt strength, but there was no need to spend that time!

The moment he died, the red-robed man clearly knew how strong Wang Lin was. He was not Wang Lin's match! Even though he had burned his soul and life, he was still not Wang Lin's match!

"Is this Golden Exalt…" Wang Lin's eyes were filled with battle intent. He had only used 70% of his power, but he felt how powerful Golden Exalts were.

When the red-robed man died, the 30,000 cultivators and dozens of third step cultivators scattered to escape. However, Wang Lin had already sealed the Devil Dao Sect, so they couldn't escape.

Wang Lin stood there with a cold gaze. He looked at the lake at the center of the sect and the island on the lake.

"You still won't show yourself!" Wang Lin's words echoed like thunder, but no sound came from the lake!

"Are you attempting to break through? I'll give you the chance!" Wang Lin waved his sleeve and he appeared next to a third step cultivator of the Devil Dao Sect. His finger swiped by and a head flew off.

"You all shouldn't have joined the Devil Dao Sect…" Wang Lin turned and stepped away. He appeared before another third step cultivator, and as that person howled, his finger pierced that person's forehead.

At the same time, the seal around the Devil Dao Sect rumbled. The seal around the sect rapidly shrank. Any Devil Dao Sect cultivator that touched the seal died.

Since Wang Lin said he was going to destroy the sect, he was going to destroy the sect. Not a single member would be allowed to escape!

Wang Lin indifferently moved and killed those dozens of third step cultivators one by one. He stood at the edge of the half-empty lake and looked at the island. Screams entered his ears as large amounts of the 30,000 Devil Dao Sect cultivators died.

These miserable screams continued to echo across the world. They entered Wang Lin's ears and also the heart of the Devil Dao Sect's sect master. who was still in closed door cultivation.

The Devil Dao Sect's sect master's expression was distorted. His eyes were red, but he continued to endure. He… didn't dare to leave!

He didn't dare. He had watched Wang Lin kill the golden-robed old man and saw the red-robed man sacrifice his own life to reach Golden Exalt cultivation. However, what made him tremble was Wang Lin's punch!!

That simple-looking punch had instantly killed a Golden Exalt!! The Devil Dao Sect's sect master had divinated thousands of times to see if he could survive that punch!

After doing so more than 1,000 times, he died 50% of the time! However, this was only 70% of Wang Lin's power. Once Wang Lin used full power... the consequences were very clear!

What's more, the Devil Dao Sect's sect master clearly knew that Wang Lin still had the Heavenly Bull soul armor!! Wang Lin hadn't even used the armor yet!!

"I can't go out!! I have already reported the matter here to the old ancestor. I don't know if he can rush back…" The screams from outside made his heart ache, but his expression soon became cold.

"So what if they die? Even if the entire Devil Dao Sects dies, as long as I'm still alive, it can be rebuilt. The more death and destruction there is, the more likely it is to anger the old ancestor!!

"And I also have a back up plan. The agreement between me and the Great Soul Sect's Esteemed Green Bull has come to an end. The final battle must be happening right now...

"The two continents have been acting out this play for tens of thousands of years. In the last 100 years, we made it even more real by sacrificing large amounts of cultivators!

"Using this price… We must be able to attract the attention of the royal family!! The Celestial Emperor that came out of closed door cultivation more than 100 years ago must have noticed… An Imperial Edict will be sent!!"

The Devil Dao Sect's sect master was enduring the screams from outside when his eyes became cold. Outside, Wang Lin looked at the lake and saw the shadow moving under the water.

The rapidly contracting seal had killed most of the Devil Dao Sect cultivators and destroyed a large amount of buildings, leaving the sect in ruins. It was condensing toward the center of the lake!

At this moment, on the Heavenly Bull Continent, a big event occured!!

The Gui Yi Sect was surrounded by countless Green Devil Continent cultivators. They began a crazed slaughter in an attempt to open the Gui Yi Sect formation. Both sides had seven or eight geniuses that had risen up, and the two armies fought regardless of death.

All the Void Tribulant cultivators, including the sect master and the several Void Tribulant cultivators from the Green Devil Continent, all raised their heads to look at the sky!

At this moment, the sky was covered by a monstrous, golden light. Under this golden light, all the cultivators inside and outside the Gui Yi Sect stopped fighting and looked at the sky in horror.

A wave of endless pressure came from the sky and descended. A golden figure calmly stood inside the golden light and looked down!

"Heavenly Bull Continent, Green Devil Continent, all members of the celestial clan, accept this edict!!"

There were two more of the same figure. One appeared outside the Great Soul Sect and one moved at an indescribable speed toward the Green Devil Continent!

As the powerful words came from the golden figure in the sky, all the cultivators inside and outside the Gui Yi Sect became silent. They all looked up and were shocked!

Imperial family!!

Celestial Emperor!!

Imperial Edict!!

The Celestial Emperor's imperial edict was extremely rare and barely appeared, maybe once in tens of thousands of years. This edict represented the irresistible majesty of the Celestial Emperor at the Central Continent. It would not be wrong to call it the might of the heavens!

On the Immortal Astral Continent, the Celestial Emperor had the bloodline of the Celestial Ancestor and was a supreme existence among the celestials. Although they were only the ruler of all the celestials in name, they were not something a mere sect, faction, or continent could resist.

Due to their bloodline, over countless years, they were not only the nominal emperor, but also the symbol of the entire celestial clan. Unless one planned to betray the celestials, they had to listen to the imperial edict!

More importantly, this emperor was one of the nine suns. With such a powerful strength along with his identity, it allowed this generation's imperial family's power to reach an extremely high degree!

"Greetings, Celestial Emperor!" All the cultivators clasped their hands and bowed. No matter where the cultivator came from or what their cultivation level was, they all bowed with respect from the depths of their hearts.

The golden figure in the sky was not the Celestial Emperor, but holding the imperial edict meant that he was the embodiment of the Celestial Emperor!

The celestial clan didn't need to kneel before the emperor, they only had to bow. This was a rule set by the Celestial Ancestor because he believed that celestials were those that defied the heavens, so how could they kneel to another so casually?

The reason the imperial clan always stayed back and didn't participate in worldly affairs was also due to the will of the Celestial Ancestor. Celestials couldn't be restrained, and if they were restrained, they weren't worthy of being called celestials!

As a result, even the four other Grand Empyreans gave the imperial family a certain degree of respect.

As all the cultivators inside and outside the Gui Yi Sect bowed, the golden figure in the sky looked down on the earth.

"There are three imperial edicts - one here, one at the Great Soul Sect, and the last one at the Green Devil Continent's Devil Dao Sect!"

With a wave of their right hand, the golden light shined brightly once more. An imperial edict made of unknown material was opened by this person.

"The celestial bloodline has lasted since ancient times until now. The cultivators of the Heavenly Bull Continent and the Green Devil Continent are to stop this war immediately! Yun Yifeng, Tang Jia, Edge Cloud, Zhou Hai, Zhao Dongqing… These eight people will come to the palace and enter the ancestral temple to enter the trial!!"

The golden figure's words were slow, but each word was like thunder. The eight cultivators he named were all filled with excitement.

These eight names belonged to the most eye-catching 16 people in this war that were at the Gui Yi Sect!

As these words echoed, the Gui Yi Sect's sect master let out a deep breath and revealed a smile. This war seemed complex, but it was actually very simple. The battle between the two continents was to display the new generation to attract the attention of the celestial emperor and enter the ancestral temple!!

The Gui Yi Sect's sect master was not the only one who smiled. The Void Tribulant Exalts from the Green Devil Continent also smiled. They all clasped their hands and bowed once more after the edict was finished.

"We all obey the will of the Emperor!!"

The golden figure waved their right hand and the golden edict flew out. It floated before the Gui Yi Sect and gave off a soft, golden light.

After doing this, the golden figure no longer spoke and disappeared from the sky. The golden light in the sky slowly disappeared and returned to normal.

Almost at the same time, outside the Great Soul Sect, the battle between the two sides reached the most intense moment. Void Cloud and the geniuses from the Great Soul Sect were battling when the second golden figure appeared.

The same scene took place above the Great Soul Sect.

All the cultivators bowed and even the imperial edict had pretty much the same meaning, only the eight names were changed to Void Cloud and company!

After the golden figure left, both the inside and outside of the Great Soul Sect were completely silent.

Old Ancestor Green Bull looked at the sky after the golden light had scattered and revealed a complicated expression. He let out a sigh, far too many cultivators had died in the war between the two continents, but for this opportunity, they had to do this!

It was the opportunity to enter the ancestral temple!

"Although the old ancestor's divination changed a bit, it ended up being mostly the same… But I never told Wang Lin the reason…" The old man shook his head as he let out a sigh and went toward his closed door cultivation location.

This war that had lasted for more than 100 years ended because of these two imperial edicts. The cultivators of the Green Devil Continent slowly retreated back to their homes on the Green Devil Continent.

The Heavenly Bull Continent had suffered heavy casualties, but the Green Devil Continent had suffered even more!

On the Green Devil Continent, in the Devil Dao Sect, as the seal rapidly shrank, anyone who touched it died miserably. Even the buildings were turned into ruins by the seal.

In less than 30 breaths of time, the seal had destroyed everything and killed all the cultivators. It gathered around the lake under Wang Lin's feet.

At the same time, most of the origin souls of the 30,000 cultivators were destroyed. Only the origin souls of the dozens of third step cultivators remained trapped inside the seal. They all flew toward Wang Lin and were caught by him.

Origin souls were very important for his Rapid Spell Art as he only had one Spell Vein. If he could devour more origin souls, his casting speed could reach a shocking degree!

Out of the two late stage Void Tribulant cultivators, one's origin soul was destroyed and the other had burned to death, so Wang Lin hadn't collected them. The main reason was because Wang Lin needed to judge how powerful he was right now.

In such a situation, if he took care to maintain the origin soul, he wouldn't be able to accurately judge how powerful he had become.

In the future, it wouldn't be difficult for him to obtain Void Tribulant origin souls. However, for these dozens of third step cultivators, he had no hesitation in taking them, and he put them into his storage space.

Wang Lin didn't know what had happened in the Heavenly Bull Continent. He just stared at the lake below. The sounds of dying cultivators had disappeared and now it was dead silence.

"The Devil Dao Sect has been destroyed and everyone is dead. If any of them remain, they are on the Heavenly Bull Continent, yet you still won't come out!" Wang Lin's words were cold and he waved his hand at the lake below.

The moment he waved his hand, the seal around the lake shined brightly and thunderous rumbles echoed across the ruined sect. The seal began to rapidly contract around the lake.

The water in the lake began to ripple rapidly and water vapor flew out. It was obvious this lake was rapidly collapsing!

The seal contained powerful destructive force. When it contracted the water, the water dissipated and the lake collapsed, leaving only the light that rushed toward the island at the center.

However, when the seal was halfway to the island, a roar came from inside the lake. A dark blue sea dragon rushed out from the lake!!

This was a sea dragon, a completely blue sea dragon that was hundreds of thousands of feet long!! The sea dragon was a celestial beast on the Immortal Astral Continent. It looked fierce and gave off dense celestial energy!

This sea dragon had lived for a certain amount of time. It gave off an ancient aura and its head was somewhat different from other dragons' heads. The row of thorns on its back made it look even more shocking!

This dragon had no claws, it looked like a large python. But it had power comparable to a dragon's! Its body looked slender but was hundreds of feet thick. On its head, aside from the thorns covering its back, there were two huge fins that connected together like a fan.

As the sea dragon flew into the air, large amounts of water flew down from its scales. As the dragon flew out, the water level of the lake decreased a lot!

Roar!!

The moment it appeared, the sea dragon's giant, red eyes stared at Wang Lin and it let out a shocking roar. As it howled, two more eyes appeared. This dragon actually had four eyes!

The sea dragon should live in the sea, but it lived inside the lake. The moment it appeared, a pressure spread out from its body.

The moment the sea dragon appeared, an earth-yellow light came from the island, forming a protective barrier that protected the island from the seal.

Shortly after, the sea dragon suddenly moved. It opened its mouth and charged at Wang Lin to devour him. All the thorns on its back stood straight and gave off a cold chill.

This sea dragon had power no weaker than a peak Golden Exalt!!

It had followed the Empyrean Exalt for a long time, and when he left, he left the sea dragon here at the Devil Dao Sect. He was confident that with this dragon and the power of the Devil Dao Sect, the sect would be safe for countless years!

As the sea dragon charged into the sky toward Wang Lin, a ray of golden light arrived in the Green Devil Continent from the Heavenly Bull Continent, flying at a speed faster than Void Tribulant Exalt cultivators. From its speed, it wouldn't take too long before it arrived at the Devil Dao Sect!

The sea dragon roared and rapidly closed in on Wang Lin. Inside the island surrounded by the earth-yellow light, the Devil Dao Sect's sect master stared above. His eyes could easily penetrate this place and see everything outside.

"This sea dragon was left by the old ancestor. If I wanted to kill it, it would take a lot of effort and I might not even succeed. Although this Wang Lin killed Elder Feng, Elder Feng sacrificed his life to reach Golden Exalt for a short period of time. There was still a big gap between him and a real Golden Exalt!

"He can kill Elder Feng, but he can't quickly seal with the sea dragon left by the old ancestor!! With the sea dragon's delay, the old ancestor will certainly receive the news!" The Devil Dao Sect's sect master didn't dare to go out, but his hatred for Wang Lin was monstrous. He wished he could devour Wang Lin's flesh and blood.

As he clenched his teeth and whispered, his right hand trembled. The Devil Dao Sect's sect master looked down on his right hand and green gas appeared. The green gas turned into seven strands and entered his orifices.

The Devil Dao Sect's sect master trembled and closed his eyes. However, he soon opened his eyes, and they were filled with ecstasy. He began to laugh out loud.

"It's done! The Celestial Emperor has handed out the imperial edicts. There are three imperial edicts, and one of them is heading to my Devil Dao Sect. That edict must be dedicated to me!" The Devil Dao Sect's sect master laughed and revealed an insuppressible sense of excitement.

"Wang Lin, you want to kill me? You want to kill my Devil Dao Sect's dao? The old ancestor will soon arrive, and once he does, you will without a doubt die. The imperial edict is coming soon, once the imperial messenger is here, how will you kill me?!

"If you kill me, then you will kill the person who will accept the edict, which is a great crime!!" The Devil Dao Sect's sect master was very happy.

Outside the earth-yellow light, the sea dragon charged at Wang Lin. Its huge body gave off a shocking pressure, and this pressure was enough to shock the world. All below Golden Exalt would tremble and not dare to fight it!!

As the roar became even more intense, he heard a sound that could shake one's soul. This roar seemed to contain a powerful force that could make one tremble!

Wang Lin's expression was cold as he stared at the sea dragon that was rapidly closing in. He had never seen such a beast before, and he felt the terrifying aura coming from it.

This was the power of a Golden Exalt, which was causing the sky to change colors as the sea dragon closed in. The clear sky became dim and gloomy as if clouds had filled it.

"Golden Exalt beast…" Wang Lin's eyes shined and revealed a monstrous, golden light. His eyes revealed shocking battle intent.

His cultivation erupted completely without reservation. This was his first time releasing his full cultivation since he obtained the great fortune at the Green Devil Scorpion Temple!!

He fully released his Ancient Dao body and his Void Tribulant cultivation. Aside from not wearing the soul armor, this was Wang Lin's highest peak in his nearly 3,000 years of cultivation!!

His white hair suddenly extended several fold until it was longer than this body. It hung in the air and matched his white robe. Wang Lin looked like he was surrounded by cold, white light!

As his hair extended past his feet, Wang Lin raised his right hand and pointed at the sea dragon!

"Sundered Night!"

The world rumbled and the surroundings suddenly changed into a monstrous sea. As the sea roared, the sky became dark.

A rising sun in the dark sky released dazzling light. The sea dragon's huge body trembled and its eyes revealed fear.

It clearly felt that the cultivator was using a spell that made it feel unimaginable horror. It felt like it had gone back to a time when it was still very weak; it remembered the fear it felt when facing the might of the heavens.

The rising sun revealed Wang Lin's figure. He was the rising sun and walked out from the bright light. A powerful faith power spread out from his body.

This faith power surrounded the area and caused the sea dragon's body to tremble violently. The sea dragon didn't dare to close in; it retreated like crazy.

Even though it had strength equal to that of a Golden Exalt, it felt death closing in on it inside the dark sky. However, no matter how fast it retreated, it could not escape from the dark sky and the force that will tear this darkness apart.

As the light from the rising sun spread out the darkness collapsed layer by layer toward the sea dragon. It was as if it was going to tear the sea dragon apart along with the darkness!

The feeling of death surrounded the sea dragon's entire body, and its body trembled as it roared. Intense pain came from all over its body. The power that was tearing the darkness apart was destroying its body.

This intense pain was something not even its powerful physical body and Golden Exalt cultivation could bear. As it roared in pain, it was filled with fear and despair as if it was in a nightmare it could not wake from.

"Surrender or die!" As its body was about to collapse and die, as pain flooded through its body, pushing it infinitely close to death, a powerful voice filled with faith and majesty echoed in the world.

The moment the voice rang out, the sea dragon struggled to open its eyes, blinded by the rising sun. It saw Wang Lin walk out of the rising sun and then suddenly entered a trance.

"Grand Empyrean…" In the eyes of the sea dragon, the rising sun behind Wang Lin was like a sun. The tenth sun on the Immortal Astral Continent!!

The figure under the sun, the powerful faith power, it was a Grand Empyrean!!

Its owner, the Devil Dao Sect's ancestor, was only an Empyrean Exalt, and at this moment, Wang Lin looked like a Grand Empyrean to the sea dragon. It fell into a trance, it would not yield to others, even in death, because it had its own pride. However at this moment it trembled and laid down without hesitation.

"Surrender!" The moment it released this message from its mind, the seal of its original master immediately collapsed. A beast at the Golden Exalt stage could not be controlled by ordinary means. It required a great amount of aura to make it surrender

Aside from Grand Empyreans, others couldn't make a celestial beast like this their slave; they could only keep an equal relationship. The dragon and its previous owner were like this.

But the moment it surrendered, a green soul aura came out from the head of the sea dragon. Wang Lin grabbed this soul aura with his hand.

Not even the previous owner of the sea dragon was able to obtain this soul aura. However, under a trance and enlightenment, this sea dragon had given its soul aura to Wang Lin!

Controlling the soul aura meant full control over its life and death!

The moment Wang Lin took control of the soul force, the darkness disappeared and the surrounding sea and sun scattered. Everything returned to normal. The earth was still the ruins of the Devil Dao Sect and the sky was clear.

However, the Devil Dao Sect's sect master inside the earth-yellow light was filled with disbelief when he saw this. His body suddenly trembled.

"No… No way!! That sea dragon belongs to the old ancestor. It… It actually surrendered to Wang Lin!!" The Devil Dao Sect's sect master was filled with fear. He was not just shocked by the surrender of the Sea Dragon, but the Sundered Night spell Wang Lin had used after erupting his full cultivation!!

"Faith spell!! That was a faith spell!!" He thought the sea dragon could delay for some time, but he didn't expect things to turn around so quickly. In just a few short moments, Wang Lin used a faith spell and the sea dragon chose to surrender!!

Endless fear instantly surrounded the heart of the Devil Dao Sect's sect master. Without hesitation, he bit the tip of his tongue and spayed out blood. The blood turned into a blood mist and quickly entered the earth-yellow light to reinforce the power of the light barrier.

"I can't let him inside! I'm not his match, I can't let him enter!! Time, I need time. Old Ancestor should be here soon and the imperial edict should be here even sooner. Time, I need time!!" The Devil Dao Sect's sect master seemed to have gone crazy. His hands rapidly formed seals and they flew into the light barrier around the island.

As the light barrier flickered and was being reinforced, Wang Lin stepped forward. The sea dragon followed and looked at Wang Lin with respect and awe.

As Wang Lin closed in on the light barrier, he silently raised his right hand. There was a flash of coldness in his eyes and he threw a punch.

Rumble, rumble, rumble, rumble!!

The light barrier that was reinforced by the Devil Dao Sect's sect master only lasted for an instant before it shattered into countless pieces. All the surrounding buildings on the island were destroyed as well, revealing the desperate Devil Dao Sect's sect master!

Wang Lin coldly looked at the Devil Dao Sect's sect master. He didn't hesitate to charge forward with a punch. The Devil Dao Sect's sect master seem to have gone crazy as he retreated and his hands formed seals. However, his body trembled and he coughed out blood. He was seriously injured and was forced back.

"Wang Lin, you dare to kill me!? My Devil Dao Sect's ancestor is an Empyrean Exalt cultivator. If you kill me, you will die a terrible death!!"

Wang Lin didn't speak. He stepped forward and was about to throw another punch!

Just at this moment, a ray of golden light arrived at an unimaginable speed and shrouded the world! Inside the golden light stood a golden figure!

"Celestial Emperor's messenger, Celestial Emperor's messenger, the Imperial Edict is here. Wang Lin, I want to see if you still dare to kill me!! Do you dare to go against the edict!?" The Devil Dao Sect's sect master was filled with despair, but now he was suddenly very excited.

The golden light in the sky gave off a dazzling glow and lit up the ruined Devil Dao Sect. The golden figure didn't even look down as he waved his hand and the imperial edict appeared.

"Devil Dao Sect, accept the edict!"

As he spoke, the Devil Dao Sect's sect master's eyes were filled with indescribable excitement and surprise. He stopped retreating and clasped his hands toward the sky. Just as he was about to speak, the excitement in his eyes collapsed and was replaced with fear.

Because Wang Lin wasn't looking up at the golden light in the sky and had ignored the imperial edict. He didn't pause, and he instantly closed in on the Devil Dao Sect's sect master. He raised his right hand and smashed down!

A thunderous rumble echoed when his punch landed. Wang Lin's full cultivation erupted and formed a power that would terrify all Golden Exalt cultivators.

Killing someone under the imperial edict!

The Devil Dao Sect's sect master's heart trembled and he retreated like crazy. He activated his full cultivation and the Dao and Devil shadows appeared to defend him.

Thunderous rumbles echoed once more and Wang Lin's punch shattered the Dao shadow and collapsed the Devil shadow. His punch landed on the Devil Dao Sect's sect master's chest.

The Devil Dao Sect's sect master trembled and coughed out a large amount of blood. His injuries became even more serious. He was knocked back and fear filled his eyes. Thunder spread out from his body and formed countless balls of thunder that shot at Wang Lin.

At the same time, the golden figure surrounded by the golden light coldly looked at Wang Lin. He held up the imperial edict and let out a roar filled with a sense of majesty.

"To kill someone before the imperial edict, you have guts! Still not backing down?"

Wang Lin completely ignored the golden figure and stepped toward the seriously injured Devil Dao Sect's sect master. He completely ignored the balls of thunder!

"No one can save someone I want to kill!" Wang Lin raised his right hand and threw the third punch!

A thunderous rumble echoed and all the balls of thunder collapsed. Although the Devil Dao Sect's sect master was a Golden Exalt cultivator, he let out a miserable scream. He coughed out blood once more as he was knocked back. His whole body seemed to wilt, and monstrous fear appeared in his eyes.

"The imperial edict is here. If you kill me, then you will without a doubt die!" The Devil Dao Sect's sect master looked miserable and blood mist gushed out from his body. The shockwave from Wang Lin's punch was rippling in his body and he was almost out of strength.

His cultivation was not a match for Wang Lin!

"You dare to kill before the imperial edict? Arrogant. I'm am the imperial messenger here to announce the imperial edict. Not retreating means defying the edict!" The golden figure saw Wang Lin and immediately roared before he rushed toward him!

As he charged out, a golden light released from this golden figure, turning into a golden curtain that flew toward Wang Lin.

Dense celestial energy came from the golden curtain, along with a sense of majesty.

When the crazed Devil Dao Sect's sect master saw this, he seemed to have spotted a chance to survive. He looked mad as his hands formed a seal and a vortex appeared between his eyebrows. Nine black flying knives flew out toward Wang Lin.

"Scram!" There was a flash of coldness in Wang Lin's eyes and he turned to roar at the incoming imperial messenger. He waved his hand at the imperial messenger.

With this, the world changed colors and a giant palm print appeared. It carried with it the might of the world and flew toward the imperial messenger.

As a thunderous rumble echoed, the giant palm print collided with the golden light curtain. The light curtain immediately collapsed and the palm touched the imperial messenger.

As the thunderous rumbles replaced all sounds in the world, the imperial messenger coughed out blood and was knocked back 1,000 feet. He barely stopped and coughed out blood once more. He looked at Wang Lin with disbelief in his eyes.

"Empyrean… Empyrean Exalt cultivation!!"

Wang Lin had forced the imperial messenger back with one palm. His cultivation erupted and a black wind appeared around his body, colliding with the nine black flying knives. Thunderous rumbles echoed and all nine knives collapsed.

Wang Lin stepped forward and instantly arrived next to the Devil Dao Sect's sect master. Fear filled the Devil Dao Sect's sect master's eyes as Wang Lin's right hand smashed down on his chest!

A thunderous rumble echoed and his expression dimmed, the death aura filling his body. He was knocked back and Wang Lin followed after like an arrow and threw another punch!

More than 100 years later, the scene outside the Meng Earth Continent - the human heads flying and Wang Lin desperately trying to escape fate - appeared in his mind! This time, he didn't punch but opened his mouth and inhaled!

"Die!" Wang Lin threw a punch and the body of the Devil Dao Sect's sect master collapsed. His origin soul screamed as he escaped from his collapsed body.

Everything that had happened in the Green Scorpion Temple and his tenacity appeared in Wang Lin's mind. Killing intent appeared in Wang Lin's eyes.

This devour seemed to cause infinite suction force to spread out. The origin soul of the Devil Dao Sect's sect master let out a howl of despair before his death.

"Old Ancestor, save me!

"Lord Messenger, save me!!"

The expression of the imperial messenger holding the edict changed greatly. He clenched his teeth and charged down once more to stop Wang Lin from devouring the Devil Dao Sect's sect master.

"Wang Lin, if you kill him, I can't declare the Emperor's edict. This is not a matter you can bear; it is an offense to the might of the celestials. Do you want to betray the entire celestial clan!?!"

This was the first time the imperial messenger had delivered an imperial edict. He didn't expect to encounter something like. As an imperial messenger, he had seen many powerful cultivators in the Central Continent, but none of them was as arrogant as Wang Lin, to dare to kill someone under the imperial edict!!

"You're dead. If you do this, you're dead!" The imperial messenger was extremely angry and rushed out with a roar. Golden light shined from his body and turned into a large, golden print around his body. He smashed toward Wang Lin, who was devouring the Devil Dao Sect's sect master!

At this moment, the Devil Dao Sect's sect master's origin soul had been pulled within 1,000 feet of Wang Lin by the suction force. He could not break free at all and was letting out howls of despair.

The imperial messenger's action caused the Devil Dao Sect's sect master to struggle even more violently. If he wanted to live, he would have to borrow external force to escape!

The golden print closed in and instantly shrouded Wang Lin. When it was about to land, Wang Lin's eyes revealed a flash of coldness. He suddenly turned around and his eyes revealed monstrous, golden light!

The golden light contained the sword fragment of the Celestial Ancestor's sword and the power to suppress the heavens and earth. At this moment, that power erupted from the golden light in his eyes.

"Scram! If you attempt to stop me again, no matter what your identity is, I'll kill you today!" The golden print released a sound like it was about to collapse under Wang Lin's gaze. An invisible force bombarded the golden print and caused it to be unable to move forward.

The heart of the imperial messenger trembled when he felt the suppression force from Wang Lin's gaze. His expression changed and his scalp felt numb as his body trembled from the majesty of the gaze!

This kind of gaze, this kind of majesty, and this kind of suppression was something he had only ever felt from the Celestial Emperor. Although Wang Lin couldn't compare to the Celestial Emperor, at this moment, the imperial messenger felt like he was facing the Celestial Emperor!

He didn't dare to not retreat - he had to retreat. As he retreated, the Devil Dao Sect's sect master was completely filled with despair. He watched his origin soul get pulled from 1,000 feet to less than 300 feet from Wang Lin. Seeing how he was going to be devoured, his eyes were filled with madness!

"If you want to kill me, then you will be buried with me! Lord Messenger, this old man accepts the edict. This old man wants to listen to the edict of the Celestial Emperor even if I die!!" He didn't choose to blow himself up but chose to let the imperial messenger read the imperial edict. This would set in stone Wang Lin's crime of killing him. He was using his death to make Wang Lin suffer in the future!!

As his howl echoed, his origin soul was less than 10 feet from Wang Lin. His origin soul turned into a ghostly light and was devoured by Wang Lin.

"Let's die together!"

The mission of the imperial messenger in the sky was to pass the edict. Now that the person who was going to receive the edict had accepted, he didn't hesitate to open the edict. At the same time, his voice echoed!

"The celestial bloodline has lasted since ancient times until now. The sect master of the Devil Dao Sect on the Green Devil Continent dared to offend the might of the imperial family. He schemed with the servant of the Green Devil against the imperial family. If he is still alive, then destroy him along with the Devil Dao Sect before the edict!!

"If he is dead and if he is killed by a person named Wang Lin, then Wang Lin will accept the edict. Come to the Central Continent. I learned of how you helped Dao Fei, and I have not forgotten about it!!"

As the imperial messenger read the edict sweat, appeared on his forehead. Before he met the person who would receive the edict, he couldn't open it either. This was the first time he saw the edict, and after reading it, he was startled.

If he was like this, there was no need to mention the Devil Dao Sect's sect master. After he was completely devoured by Wang Lin, he heard all of the edict and his vision went black...

After devouring the Devil Dao Sect's sect master, Wang Lin closed his eyes and popping sounds echoed in his body. He erased the divine senese on the origin soul and injected it into his Spell Vein. When he had free time, he could use this origin soul to increase the number of Spell Veins he had.

A moment later, Wang Lin opened his eyes and waved his sleeve. The earth trembled and the half-collapsed lake and island trembled. As the storm swept by, it was destroyed completely.

The Devil Dao Sect had collapsed!

The imperial messenger in the golden light stood there with an awkward expression. It wasn't until Wang Lin opened his eyes that he clasped his hands with a bitter smile.

"Fellow Cultivator Wang, don't blame me… This… I didn't expect the contents of the imperial edict to be like this… If I had known earlier, I would have joined forces with Fellow Cultivator to kill that traitor!"

Wang Lin had a calm expression as he looked at the imperial messenger, but he didn't speak. He was also surprised by the contents of the imperial edict, especially the last few lines about him helping out Lian Daofei.

"The madman's name was Lian Daofei… When I opened the storage space, he and the woman in silver were lost to a rift in the unknown… This madman often called himself 'king,' and from what Teacher Xuan Luo told me, his big brother is the Celestial Emperor...

"Could it be that the madman was found by the emperor, and after he woke up, he told him about his relationship with me…" Wang Lin pondered as the imperial messenger felt terrified. He was extremely regretful and was bitterly cursing the death Devil Dao Sect's sect master.

"That damn sect master; he could have died, but he had to drag me into it. If I knew, I would have ignored Wang Lin and would have read the imperial edict first...

What is this Wang Lin's identity for the Celestial Emperor to talk to him like this… And helping Lian Daofei… Prince Dao Fei awakened 30 years ago, could it be…" The pupils of the imperial messenger shrank and he quickly dispelled all thoughts. He knew there were things that he should not know or guess.

"This Wang Lin has such power and… he certainly has the attention of the Celestial Emperor. Ah, I must repair things as soon as possible."

"Fellow Cultivator, don't blame me, don't blame me… I was really confused before. The Devil Dao Sect's sect master deserved to be killed!" As the imperial messenger spoke, he looked at Wang Lin. When he saw that Wang Lin still had a gloomy expression, his heart sank.

"This is bad. This person must still care about the fact I acted twice… If he speaks badly about me before the Celestial Emperor, then I… I…" Sweat appeared on his forehead, and as the wind blew by, he felt a chill.

"Hehe… Fellow Cultivator Wang, I have some specialties from the Central Continent. This is our first meeting, so please accept these small gifts." His heart ached as he took out a jade and handed it to Wang Lin along with the edict.

Wang Lin was just pondering the karma of this when he looked at the imperial messenger. He accepted the imperial edict, but he didn't look at it and instead looked at the jade.

He scanned it with his divine sense, and although he looked calm, his heart skipped a beat. There was no information inside, but it contained a storage space filled with large amounts of origin stones that contained celestial energy.

After putting the jade away, Wang Lin silently looked at the imperial messenger with a cold gaze.

Under his gaze, the imperial messenger complained in his heart. He clenched his teeth and waved his hand to take out a jade bottle. His heart ached as he squeezed out a smile.

"Ah, I forgot this. This is a specialty of the Central Continent. It's not too precious, so Fellow Cultivator must accept it!" He handed the jade bottle to Wang Lin.

After Wang Lin accepted it, he scanned it with his divine sense before the imperial messenger. There were a large amount of pills within. They were all for healing, and many of them were extremely precious.

It would be difficult for ordinary cultivators to obtain them. Only the imperial messenger could find methods to obtain them in the Central Continent.

After sending out two great gifts, the imperial messenger's heart ached. He closely looked at Wang Lin and saw that his cold expression had eased a bit, which made him feel relieved. However, Wang Lin's cold gaze was still staring at the imperial messenger after receiving the pills.

Under Wang Lin's gaze, the imperial messenger complained bitterly in his heart once more.

"Too greedy… This… This…" The imperial messenger had to put a smile on his face. His right hand trembled and he clenched his teeth. He took out another jade and squeezed out a smile.

"I have a bit of real estate in the Central Continent…" His heart ached violently as he handed another jade to Wang Lin.

After taking this jade, Wang Lin slowly put on a smile. When the imperial messenger saw this smile, he let out a big sigh of relief.

"Lord Messenger, you don't have to be so polite. Since these Central Continent specialties are not precious, then I won't be polite."

"Yes, yes, none of them are precious things." The imperial messenger felt pain in his chest as he smiled bitterly.

Wang Lin slowly asked, "Since Lord Messenger came to the Green Devil Continent, you must have passed through the Heavenly Bull Continent. I wonder, how is the war going over there?"

"There was a total of three imperial edicts. The Heavenly Bull Continent and the Gui Yi Sect both had an imperial edict each. The war should have ended, so everyone is probably returning to their respective sects." The imperial messenger didn't keep this matter a secret.

Wang Lin put away the jade and casually asked, "Dao Fei is at the imperial city?"

"Prince Dao Fei has awakened and wanted to leave the imperial city, but he was stopped by the Emperor." These were all rumors, so the imperial messenger felt that there was no harm in talking about it.

"Oh, I saved Dao Fei before and helped him." Wang Lin smiled.

The imperial messenger quickly nodded. He had noticed this when he read the edict, and now Wang Lin that had said it, he was even more certain.

"Dao Fei's personality… Ah, I haven't seen him in a long time. Is he still the same as before?" Wang Lin shook his head and let out a sigh.

"Prince Dao Fei…" The imperial messenger hesitated, but after considering the edict and Wang Lin's words, he continued.

"With my identity, I can't see prince Dao Fei. However, rumors say that after Prince Dao Fei awakened 30 years ago, his personality is not the same as before… But sometimes it's the same…" The imperial messenger was hesitant as he spoke.

Wang Lin's heart skipped a bit. He smiled and no longer spoke.

The imperial messenger saw this, and he knew when it was time to advance and retreat. He clasped his hands at Wang Lin.

"Fellow Cultivator Wang, this imperial edict can be used to transfer to the Central Continent. This place is far from the Central Continent, so you will need to transfer eight times. I'll need to head back first to report to the Emperor. When you arrive at the imperial city, I'll greet you." The imperial messenger smiled and quickly left. He was afraid that he would say something to anger Wang Lin and would have to give away another "not-too-precious" item.

Only after the imperial messenger was gone did Wang lin's smile disappear. It was replaced with a gloomy expression.

He didn't leave the ruins of the Devil Dao Sect but sat down on green stone in the sect, and his eyes shined.

"Liang Daofei… His greed and many of his negative traits were devoured by the Heavenly Dao. According to this, his personality should differ greatly from before...

"The words of the imperial messenger also reveal this. His personality has changed, but what has it changed into…"

Wang Lin frowned and looked at the darkening sky. He continued to ponder.

"However, if he really has changed, then why did his brother only announce this now, 30 years after he awakened… If he really wanted to thank me, then 30 years ago, when I was suffering and receiving the fortune in the scorpion temple...

"The contents of the imperial edict are very interesting…" There was coldness in Wang Lin's eyes as he waved his right hand. A black wind appeared and a few miserable screams echoed before it quieted down.

Wang Lin was vicious. When he was determined to do something, he would be even more vicious. Since he had decided to erase the Devil Dao Sect, he wouldn't allow the members that were at the Heavenly Bull Continent to escape.

The ones that would return first would be those with very high statuses. They would likely use transfer arrays to return at any cost. Wang Lin was also waiting for someone else aside from these people!

"The Devil Dao Sect's old ancestor should be on his way. He is an Empyrean Exalt, and in order to wipe out the dao of the Devil Dao Sect, he must die! And even if I don't look for him, he will still come and find me!

"Grand Empyrean… I wonder how I compare to a Grand Empyrean after equipping the soul armor!" Wang Lin sat on the green stone and looked into the distance.

"After dealing with the matter of the Devil Dao Sect, I have two choices. Go to the Dong Lin Sect and enter the Dong Lin Pool to see if it will help my other essences to condense essence true bodies...

"Or head to the Central Continent to see what kind of dragon den and tiger cave it is. I will see if that Liang Daofei even remembers me and what his Celestial Emperor big brother has in store...

"However, Teacher once said that there are five Grand Empyreans, and Celestial Emperor Liang Daozhen is one of them! If I gothere, I might face a lot of danger…" Wang Lin closed his eyes and pondered in the dark.

Five continents away from the Green Devil Continent, there was a ray of light flying through the sky. Inside the light was a red-haired old man with a calm expression, but there was anger hidden in his eyes!

In a flash, the world rumbled and he disappeared into a transfer array. At great cost, he crossed transfer arrays to travel through the continent!

He was the Devil Dao Sect's ancestor, who was now under Grand Empyrean Dao Yi!!

"The imperial city is a place I must go. Not for the thanks, but for my vow to Lian Daofei! I must restore Dao Fei's memories to repay for all he has done for me!" Wang Lin revealed a determined gaze.

He remembered the kindness others had given him!

Back then, the madman had given him kindness. Now he had to go to the imperial city to see if the madman had fully recovered. Then he would have no regrets and would untie the knot in his heart.

"No matter what his personality is, changed or not, even if he thinks of me differently, I must go and see for myself!" Wang Lin silently pondered, but there was a hint of melancholy in his eyes.

He didn't know what the madman was like now. He didn't know if the madman would still roar and clamor around him.

"I'll tell you, this king is powerful!"

"You, you, you… This king will bite you to death, bite you to death!!"

"Damn it, you dare to pretend to be dead before this king?"

"It's raining… Eh, Little Red, come and message my shoulders…"

"Tell my big brother that this king is tired. I won't cultivate today and will go out to play… Tell him not to come and find me. Once I finish playing, I'll come back. If he dares to take me back like before, I'll cut off my relationship with him!"

"This king's blood is very, very, very, very… Eh, I think I remember a little devilish girl named Fei Fei giving me something to eat…"

The madman's voice seemed to echo in his ears. In the darkness of the ruins of the Devil Dao Sect, Wang Lin sighed. He remembered when the madman appeared in his life or death crisis and saved him from that fatal blow.

He still remembered the third dream, when he became a mortal, when he and the madman floated in the void. In the Dream Dao, he met the madman and they spent a lifetime together.

"I hope he hasn't changed too much…" Wang Lin sighed deeply. He didn't have many friends, and the madman could be considered one.

In truth, he hadn't given the madman much; rather, it was the madman who had helped Wang Lin greatly!

"I must go to the imperial city, but it will be dangerous. I must make some preparations before I go…" Wang Lin silently pondered and made a decision.

"The celestial clan's five Grand Empyreans…" Wang Lin waved his right hand and the tortoise shell the Great Soul Sect's Old Ancestor Green Bull had given him appeared. Aside from the map, there was some information on the Grand Empyreans. Xuan Luo had also given Wang Lin some information back in the cave world.

"The Central Continent's Celestial Emperor inherited the Celestial Ancestor's Eight Extreme Dao and is Grand Empyrean Eight Extreme!

"The Eastern Continent's Purple Yang Sect, the strongest of the nine sects and thirteen factions, home to Grand Empyrean Gemini!

"The Southern Continent's Dao Yi Sect has Grand Empyrean Dao Yi!

"The Northern Continent's Universe Sect has Grand Empyrean Wu Feng!

"In the Central Continent, there is another Grand Empyrean beside the Celestial Emperor, and that was Grand Empyrean Jiu Di!"

These were the five strongest people across the 72 celestial continents - the five suns, the five Grand Empyreans!

Wang Lin's eyes lit up and he analyzed the five Grand Empyreans. Once they learned of his strength, they would certainly want to recruit him.

Once he had the backing of a Grand Empyrean, the danger of his trip to the imperial city would be a lot lower. After all, even if a Grand Empyrean wanted to kill an Empyrean Exalt under another Grand Empyrean, they would need to give a reason! This was Empyrean Exalts were beyond Golden Exalts and were extremely rare on the Immortal Astral Continent!

Every Grand Empyrean had at most 100 Empyrean Exalts under them! On the entire Immortal Astal Continent, there were no more than 1,000 Empyrean Exalts!

If it was just killing an Empyrean Exalt, it would still be fine. However, if the target was an Ascendant Empyrean, then no Grand Empyrean would allow it!

Because Ascendant Empyreans were even more rare. On the entire Immortal Astral Continent, there were only 48 Ascendant Empyreans!!!

Most of them were in closed door cultivation hidden across the Immortal Astral Continent. Less than 30% of them were under a Grand Empyrean.

Figures like these would even be respected by Grand Empyreans. After all, they were the strongest under Grand Empyreans! If they didn't want to follow a Grand Empyrean, the Grand Empyreans wouldn't force them, unless it was like the Great Soul Sect's Luo Yunhai, who had challenged a Grand Empyrean.

And once an Ascendant Empyrean chose to follow a Grand Empyrean, the Ascendant Empyrean would be treated well and be part of the core. This was because an Ascendant Empyrean was the best guardian during a Grand Empyrean's reincarnation!!

If an Ascendant Empyrean was killed by a Grand Empyrean, it would be fine if they were alone, but if they were under the command of another Grand Empyrean, that Grand Empyrean would never allow it!

This was related to their reputation, related to whether they could recruit more powerful underlings in the future, and related to the important guardian for their reincarnation. No Grand Empyrean would watch an Ascendant Empyrean under them die and do nothing.

There were simply too few Ascendant Empyreans!

"If it was in the ancient clan, there would be no need for this. With Teacher there…" Wang Lin understood that although he was Xuan Luo's only disciple, he couldn't let anyone in the land of the celestials know. Otherwise, he would be hunted by Grand Empyreans.

The celestial clan would absolutely not allow a cultivator like him to appear in the Ancient clan!

"Even the madman doesn't know the matter about Teacher, only the Gui Yi Sect knows. Since Teacher dared to allow the Gui Yi Sect to know of this matter and didn't kill them in the cave world, it means he is confident they won't talk… As for the specific reasons, although I don't know, I believe in Teacher!

"Even the Grand Empyreans won't mind me having an Ancient clan body and Celestial cultivation, as long as they don't find out about my relationship with Teacher Xuan Luo!"

Wang Lin had been on the Immortal Astral Continent for a while now, and he vaguely understood that over the countless years, the Ancient and celestial bloodlines had mixed. There were some celestial cultivators with Ancient clan bodies, but they weren't recognized by the Ancient Temple.

As a result, Wang Lin's Ancient clan body might seem shocking to ordinary cultivator, but not so much to the Grand Empyreans.

Wang Lin also knew that there were some matters that didn't need to be hidden. Like the fact that he came from the cave world was meant to be hidden from others, but not the Grand Empyreans. They would have their own way of finding out, and it was even a good thing because they could confirm Wang Lin's origin!

Although it was extremely shocking that a cave world cultivator could break out, compared to Wang Lin's cultivation, it wasn't important at all. The most important part was Wang Lin's decision.

"To attract the attention of the Grand Empyreans, I must display my power, a cultivation that can kill an Empyrean Exalt! Then I can do as I wish in the Celestial clan!

"With enough fame, the Grand Empyreans will come to find me themselves!" Wang Lin's eyes shined and he was even more determined.

"A total of five Grand Empyreans. The Celestial Emperor can be ignored. As for the other four… I don't know much about Grand Empyrean Dao Yi, Grand Empyrean Feng, or Grand Empyrean Jiu Di. I only met the Eastern Continent's Purple Yang Sect's Grand Empyrean Gemini…" Wang Lin recalled back to his encounter with Greed in the cave world and the two lovely little girls named Wa Wa and Han Han.

"I have to attract the attention of the Grand Empyreans and make them come find me themselves. That is the best method!" Wang Lin's eyes lit up and then he slowly closed them.

He was waiting for the arrival of the Empyrean Exalt old ancestor of the Devil Dao Sect. He was going to keep himself in peak condition and see the extent of his power.

Golden Exalts could no longer be used for Wang Lin to gauge his strength. Only Empyrean Exalts could help him do this.

As he waited, the Devil Dao Sect's sect master's origin soul was being ruthlessly absorbed by him. However, he didn't condense the second Spell Vein but took out the dozens of third step origin souls he had gathered. He picked out those at five Arcane Tribulants and below to devour to form the second Spell Vein.

Time slowly passed. Several hours later, when the sky became bright and after Wang Lin had devoured nine origin souls below five Arcane Tribulants, the second vortex immediately condensed!

The moment the second Spell Vein appeared, Wang Lin suddenly opened his eyes. He felt like he could cast spells even faster than before!

"The third Spell Vein is about to appear!" Wang Lin waved his sleeve and picked seven origin souls above five Arcane Tribulants out of the dozens of souls. Because there weren't enough origin souls at the Arcane Tribulant stage, he devoured an early stage Void Tribulant origin soul. His body rumbled and the third Spell Vein appeared!

After the third Spell Vein appeared, he could instantly cast a lot of spells once all of them activated. Even the speed of his Ancient Dao body changed drastically.

This was different from the cultivator who Wang Lin learned it from - he could only increase his casting speed, not affect his body. This was because the first soul he had devoured belonged to a Nirvana Void cultivator, while Wang Lin had devoured an Arcane Void origin soul!

More than half the origin souls were devoured by Wang Lin were going to be used for other things.

"I wonder how many Spell Veins the Devil Dao Sect's sect master's origin soul will form…" Wang Lin closed his eyes and began forming Spell Veins with the Devil Dao Sect sect master's origin soul.

At this moment, the sky was bright and the sunlight was shining. As Wang Lin was forming the Spell Vein, a ray of light flew across the border of the Meng Earth Continent and the Green Devil Continent. The cultivators were shaken by the ray of light, and none of them dared to peek outside.

The boundaries between continents were completely ignored by Empyrean Exalts!

The soul search spell was an extremely powerful spell. However, for a Golden Exalt, even if their origin soul had lost all will, their powerful cultivation formed a strong protective barrier over the countless years. This made it very difficult to soul search them.

Even with a forced soul search, one could only obtain some fragments, not everything. Maybe if one's cultivation level was far above a Golden Exalt, then one could perfectly extract the memories.

Although Wang Lin could win against Golden Exalts, that was due to the fusion of his Ancient Dao body and his cultivation, allowing him to reach that battle strength. In truth, his cultivation level was only early stage Void Tribulant.

While the Devil Dao Sect's sect master's origin soul was being refined into a Spell Vein in Wang Lin's body, Wang Lin tried to soul search it. However, he could not find any important memories, like the secret behind the war with the Heavenly Bull Continent. He could only find some thoughts about the Empyrean Exalt ancestor.

"The Devil Dao Sect's Empyrean Exalt ancestor, an Empyrean Exalt under Grand Empyrean Dao Yi…" The sun was hanging high in the sky and shining on the earth. Wang Lin opened his eyes and his eyes lit up.

In his body, the fourth and fifth Spell Veins appeared!

A Golden Exalt had allowed two Spell Veins to appear! Wang Lin waved his arms a bit and shadows appeared. Wang Lin clearly felt not only his casting speed increase, but also his terrifying physical strength.

This was the key to the Rapid Spell Art; it was what attracted Wang Lin!

"Let's test how fast my body is!" Wang Lin looked up and his body moved. He was still sitting under the sun, but the sunlight distorted and a second Wang Lin appeared 30 feet away.

This second Wang Lin stood there and smiled. As he walked forward, the sunlight distorted again and a third Wang Lin appeared 100 feet away.

The third Wang Lin frowned and looked up at the sky. It was unknown what he was thinking.

Soon, the sunlight continued to distort as the fourth, fifth, sixth… Until a total of 98 figures appeared! Some were sitting, some were flying, some were walking, some were casting spells, and some were waving their fists. Each was different, and at a glance, it was a shocking sight.

The 98th figure sat down next to the first figure. The two looked exactly the same, only their expressions were different.

"98 afterimages is the limit," the last figure murmured as the first figure disappeared. Then the second, third, fourth, until 97 figures dissipated.

The 98th figures could each be considered an avatar. This was the afterimages left due to Wang Lin's extremely fast physical speed. This meant that his speed was already shocking.

It was very simple to reach this kind of speed with the help of spells, but to achieve it purely through the physical body was not ordinary!

"Now I have six Spell Veins. The Rapid Spell Art can form nine Spell Veins, but it doesn't say nine is the limit. Maybe when I get nine, there will be new changes...

"This spell is extremely powerful, so I must focus on it!" Wang Lin at down and his eyes shined. The path ahead had been determined, and now it was all about how he would walk down that path.

"After dealing with the matter at the Celestial Clan, I'll go to Teacher and cultivate there. Once I'm more powerful, I can go anywhere I want to search for Wan Er's soul!

"My current battle power is very high, but still far away from that of those old monsters."

"My nine essences have fused into three. According to my understanding, if I can form the other two elements for my five-element true body, I should reach the mid stage of Void Tribulant!

"Similarly, if I could add two more special essences to my thunder essence based essence true body, then I should be able to reach the late stage of Void Tribulant, Golden Exalt!

"Finally, the most difficult will be the ethereal essences. If I can comprehend two more ethereal essences and combine the five, I should reach peak Void Tribulant, Empyrean Exalt!

"After that, if all my essences form their own essence true bodies, then with these three essence true bodies, my cultivation level will go beyond Empyrean Exalt and reach a point where I'm only second to Grand Empyreans!

"Although I don't know the method to become a Grand Empyrean, Teacher said that it requires great luck and for the Immemorial God Realm to open...

"But if I can fuse all three essence true bodies into one, perhaps I can become a Grand Empyrean!" As Wang Lin silently pondered, his eyes shined. This was all his own analysis, and he needed time to verify.

"If my analysis is correct, there must be another level above Grand Empyreans! Perhaps this level is the fourth step, or perhaps not… That level would require my three essence true bodies to fuse into one and reach the level of true soul!!

"This level should be something not even the Grand Empyreans have reached, something they are always in pursuit of! Or perhaps that is the level of the Celestial Ancestor and the Ancient Ancestor!!" Wang Lin's mind was clear at this moment. Although this was his own speculation and judgement, it was the path he needed to walk in the future.

Whether it was true or not, he would know once he reached that point!

"Special essences and ethereal essences are not easy to obtain. However, the metal and wood elements should be easier." As Wang Lin pondered, the afternoon sun was shining in the sky, but a faint thunderous rumble came from the distance.

Wang Lin raised his head, looked at the sky in the distance, and slowly stood up. A breeze caused his hair and clothes to flutter, and with the ruins in the background, Wang Lin gave off a strange temperament.

"Here he comes!" Wang Lin's eyes were suddenly filled with battle intent!

"To attract the attention of the Grand Empyreans!

"Become famous across the 72 continents of the Celestial Clan!

"This battle is the beginning!!"

As the thunderous rumble in the sky spread, it enveloped the entire world. A powerful killing intent spread out as the ray of light that seemed to split the sky in half rushed into the Green Devil Continent.

There was a red-haired man inside the light!

In an instant, the thunderous rumble dissipated from the world. It was like the moment when a noisy room suddenly became quiet. When the rumble disappeared, the light collapsed and the entire world was dead silent.

A figure appeared 1,000 feet before Wang Lin!

The red-haired old man was wearing a purple robe with edges and a Tai Chi pattern on right corner. This Tai Chi pattern was fire red, as if it represented dao!

The red-haired old man stood there, and after a long time, he looked at Wang Lin and said, "Was it you who destroyed my Devil Dao Sect?" He was very calm and didn't show any emotion at all. However, his voice set off countless echoes that became more and more intense. In the end, the sky rumbled, the earth roared, and a shocking sound wave attacked Wang Lin's body.

As Wang Lin calmly stood there, his pupils shrank slightly and he slowly said, "Yes!"

"After destroying my Devil Dao Sect, you still waited here. Are you going to challenge me?" After the red-haired old man saw how calm Wang Lin was, his eyes became even more intense.

Wang Lin looked at the red-haired man and calmly said, "Yes!"

"Good!" The Devil Dao Sect's old ancestor showed no contempt and didn't show any anger. At his cultivation level, all the emotional fluctuations were gone from his body. He was an Empyrean Exalt under Grand Empyrean Dao Yi. Although he was not the strongest Empyrean Exalt, he was still at the top of the Celestial Clan.

"I'll give you the opportunity to challenge me. If you can endure three punches from me, then I'll forget the matter of you destroying the Devil Dao Sect!" The Devil Dao Sect's old ancestor waved his sleeve and threw a punch at Wang Lin.

This punch caused the world to change colors and the ruins of the Devil Dao Sect distorted. Everything changed; it was as if this space had become a separate existence.

Inside the distortion, all the power of the world was absorbed by the red-haired old man's punch, and there was no power of the world left in this space.

"At the Empyrean Exalt stage, there is no need to perform spells. A cultivator's body is their root. There is no need for an extremely powerful physical body, one just has to put dao into the body. Make one's body their dao!

"With the body as dao, even a normal punch contains the dao the destroy everything!" This was what Grand Empyrean Dao Yi had told the red-haired old man.

This punch made Wang Lin's pupils shrink. His white hair moved without any wind and his eyes shined brightly. He felt the terror of the punch. Even though it looked ordinary, as the punch moved, the world moved as well!

This punch also contained nine different kinds of spells. These spells t required no seals or divine sense; just a casual punch would cause the spells to appear!

This was the true power of an Empyrean Exalt. This punch would make Golden Exalts tremble in fear. This punch was enough to kill them 100 times!

This was the result of fully integrating one's dao and will into one's body. The body was dao, the fist was dao!

The world distorted. As Wang Lin's white hair fluttered, he didn't retreat but also stepped forward and threw a punch with this right hand!

He didn't immediately put on the Heavenly Bull soul armor, but tried with his own power. He wanted to see how he matched against an Empyrean Exalt without the Heavenly Bull soul armor!

At this point, rumbles began to interrupt this silence and the earth began to shatter layer by layer under the collision of their punches. Everything collapsed, but the distortion prevented the collapse from spreading out far, and it could only fly into the air!

Inside the storm, thunderous rumbles echoed before Wang Lin, and he withdrew his fist. His body trembled and he retreated three steps. The first step left a fire-red footprint.

The second step was a green footprint that was covered in vegetation. The third step caused the earth to become metal, like a metal footprint.

During the three steps, Wang Lin raised his head and looked at the Devil Dao Sect's old ancestor.

The storm gradually dissipated and the Devil Dao Sect's old ancestor walked out and calmly looked at Wang Lin.

"To not die or be injured by my punch and only taking three steps remove the three spells that entered your body. You have the power to destroy the Devil Dao Sect!"

Wang Lin looked at the Devil Dao Sect's old ancestor with a solemn expression. That punch contained nine spells, but he could only block six. The final three steps were to deal with those remaining three spells.

"Is this the power of Grand Empyreans? Very strong!" Wang Lin's eyes shined. He wanted to fight an Empyrean Exalt!

"So Empyrean Exalt cultivators fight like this…" Wang Lin recalled the punch from the Devil Dao Sect's old ancestor and his eyes became brighter.

He was learning!

"This is the second punch!" The Devil Dao Sect's old ancestor stepped forward. His red hair moved without any wind and his eyes revealed a strange light. As he raised his right hand, his whole body rapidly changed between real and fake. It looked extremely strange as he threw the second punch!

The moment the second punch appeared, the entire Devil Dao Sect trembled. It was as if an invisible force had appeared and torn open the sky and earth, causing the area around Wang Lin to turn into a void!

This was an endless void. In the darkness, Wang Lin could not see the sky or earth. It was as if he was in another world by himself, and the only other thing was the punch!

This punch contained 18 spells.

If a Golden Exalt saw this punch, they could only feel despair and horror as they weren't qualified to resist. Even 10 Golden Exalts wouldn't be able to delay this punch for one breath of time.

This was no longer a difference in quantity, but in quality!!

Golden Exalt cultivators still used spells to fight. However, Empyrean Exalts fused the dao into their bodies and integrated it into every movement of their bodies. It was on a much higher level!

"There are 18 spells inside the fist… Very strong! Fusing the dao with my body, I can't do that yet!" Wang Lin's eyes shined as he raised his right hand. He punched toward the second punch coming at him!

"I can't fuse dao with my body and use spells with just a movement from my body. This punch contains a fusion of my ancient and celestial powers. It has no spells, but it contains the power of my faith and will!" Wang Lin's eyes were filled with battle intent. He stepped forward with a roar as their punches collided!

A thunderous rumble echoed across the void. As the sound became even more intense, the void began to show signs of collapse. In an instant, the void was torn apart and formed a destructive collapse.

After the void collapsed, the sky was still the sky of the Green Devil Continent and the earth was still the ruins of the Devil Dao Sect. Wang Lin stood there, 1,000 feet from the Devil Dao Sect's old ancestor.

Blood flowed out from the corner of his mouth. Wang Lin felt like a powerful impact was echoing through his body and he was pushed back seven steps. Each step was different, and after seven steps, a rumble came from his body. He lowered his trembling right arm and drops of blood fell on the ground.

"A powerful second punch, 18 spells fused into a punch. Just one punch can isolate a space from the world." Wang Lin looked up and wiped away the blood from the corner of his mouth as he looked at the Devil Dao Sect's old ancestor.

"Your cultivation level is not high, but your battle power barely reaches Empyrean Exalt. But you don't know how Empyrean Exalts battle. I believe I should be the first Empyrean Exalt you have gone up against," the Devil Dao Sect's old ancestor slowly said as he walked forward. His gaze toward Wang Lin became a bit serious.

"A cultivator that doesn't know how Empyrean Exalts battle can take two punches from me. This person is not ordinary!"

After walking out 10 steps, the Devil Dao Sect's old ancestor's eyes shined brightly like he was the spirit of the world. He looked at Wang Lin as he raised his right hand for the third time.

The Devil Dao Sect's old ancestor slowly said, "If you can take my last punch, then the matter of you destroying the Devil Dao Sect will be written off! This punch contains my full power. If this punch can't kill you, then I really can't kill you. You must have you own reason for why you destroyed the Devil Dao Sect, but I won't ask what it is. This third punch will end it all!

"This punch contains 27 spells, how many can you take?" the Devil Dao Sect's old ancestor said as he raised his right hand.

Wang Lin clearly knew that without wearing the soul armor, he couldn't take it. That punch was powerful enough to kill him completely. Not even his Ancient Dao body could survive this punch; he would be completely destroyed!

"Empyrean Exalts, they are indeed worthy of being the peak below Ascendant Empyrean!" Wang Lin closed his eyes and the tattoo of the Heavenly Bull on his face began to spread. At the same time, Wang Lin's cultivation surged.

This aura spread out from the Heavenly Bull soul and entered Wang Lin's body and flesh like crazy. It also entered Wang Lin's origin soul and soul, causing his cultivation level to immediately climb from early stage Void Tribulant to mid stage Void Tribulant. However, this wasn't the end. It climbed into the late stage of Void Tribulant, until Wang Lin reached Golden Exalt, before it stopped.

This sudden change caused the pupils of the Devil Dao Sect's old ancestor to shrink for the first time.

"Borrowing the soul force? This is the soul power of the Heavenly Bull. So you are recognized by the Heavenly Bull!! To raise your cultivation level to this extent, you can hear the voice of the Heavenly Bull soul!" The expression of the Devil Dao Sect's old ancestor changed for the first time!

He was well aware of the 72 souls that were suppressed in each of the 72 continents. Although they were all suppressed, the levels of suppression were different in each continent, and so was the strength of each soul.

Some of them were already dead souls; only half of them were still alive. For example, the Green Scorpion Soul. It was originally extremely powerful, but the suppression on it was not weak. It had also been suppressed for a very long time, even before the formation of the Heavenly Bull Continent. Its soul had been weakened far too much.

The soul of the Heavenly Bull was different. Out of the 72 continents, the Heavenly Bull had joined later, so it was sealed for a shorter period of time. The Heavenly Bull was also powerful and was ranked 18th among the 72 souls.

Obtaining the recognition of a soul was not that special. Any continent where the soul was still alive would have messengers like this. However, obtaining recognition was only the start. Even with the soul force, at most they could reach the late stage of Void Tribulat, not Golden Exalt!

This was a consensus that people came to after countless years. It was by no means impossible, but very few people could hear the roar of the soul and receive a higher degree of recognition to reach Golden Exalt.

But Golden Exalt was the absolute limit and couldn't be exceeded. If it was the rank one soul sealed under the imperial city, it might be possible after reaching high recognition, but it would be impossible for the other souls.

Most importantly, the number of cultivators that could reach Golden Exalt with the soul armor was even lower than Empyrean Exalts, around the same as Ascendant Exalts. This was because at most, only two people could receive high recognition on each continent.

As a result, the Devil Dao Sect's old ancestor had never heard of someone who was an Empyrean Exalt and had also received high recognition by a continent's soul.

In his view, the chance of this happening was even lower than someone becoming an Ascendant Empyrean and just a bit more likely than a new Grand Empyrean being born.

"Enduring two punches from me proves that he's qualified to be an Empyrean Exalt. To even have high recognition of the Heavenly Bull… This…" The Devil Dao Sect's old ancestor revealed a hint of emotion he hadn't revealed in a long time.

"Any Grand Empyrean who saw this person would want to take him under them… I just don't know what cultivation level he will reach with the power of the soul armor!" Devil Dao Sect's old ancestor's eyes lit up. He raised his right hand and threw out the third punch.

The moment this punch flew out, the fist that contained his 27 spells formed a giant black hole between him and Wang Lin. This black hole seemed to devour everything, and the ruins of the Devil Dao Sect were being swallowed by it.

Even the sky seemed to collapse. It distorted and arched and was being devoured by the black hole.

The earth turned into a strange half-circle that was being mercilessly pulled by the black hole.

The black hole released a strange howl as it flew toward Wang Lin!

Wang Lin opened his eyes and Golden Exalt power filled his body. He clearly felt a sense of strength he had never felt before flow through his body. His body trembled and a second body appeared.

The second body took a step and then a third, fourth, fifth… Until the 98th body appeared. 97 of them were afterimages and one of them was real.

"I can't fuse dao with my body or use spells with just my movement. However, I can use the Rapid Spell Art to use 98 spells at once to battle an Empyrean Exalt!!"

After fusing the dao with the body, a punch or kick could contain a number of spells. This was the strongest way to display power for an Empyrean Exalt. The Devil Dao Sect's old ancestor could fuse 27 spells within his fist. It was strong enough to wipe out any cultivator below Empyrean Exalt.

The key was the number of spells that could fuse, not the amount of different spells. Some Empyrean Exalts might not have dozens of spells, but they could fuse dozens of the same spell and reach similar combat power.

The key was the amount!

After the Rapid Spell Art reached six Spell Veins and allowed Wang Lin to create 97 afterimages, his speed reached a terrifying degree. Wang Lin could use this trick to instantly cast 98 spells.

He could do this because his current combat power had reached Empyrean Exalt. If one hadn't reached Empyrean Exalt combat power, then even with nine Spell Veins, hundreds of afterimages, and casting hundreds of spells, they wouldn't be a match for an Empyrean Exalt.

Even if an Empyrean Exalt learned the Rapid Spell Art, if they could only use 27 spells, even if hundreds of afterimages used those spells, they would still only display power similar to the 27 spells their original body could display.

Because their limit would be 27 spells, it couldn't be exceeded. Just like how a bottle could only hold so much water. No matter how much water you tried to fill it with, it could only hold so much.

But Wang Lin was different. His actual battle strength was infinitely stronger due to his Ancient Dao body and because of the soul blood. The soul blood played a vital role.

As a result, with his current borrowed Golden Exalt cultivation, the battle strength he could display was even greater.

This was also why Wang Lin could battle people above his cultivation level after fusing his ancient and celestial powers! The other reason Wang Lin had become so strong here even though he wasn't as strong in the cave world was his strongest avatar in the void!

These three powers fusing together was the reason why Wang Lin possessed the combat power he had now!

His body was the bottle, his cultivation was the water, and the strongest avatar was what made the bottle flexible, as if was elastic and could continue to expand.

The existence of the soul blood made Wang Lin undergo a change. Normally, this change wouldn't reveal itself, but it was one of the reasons for Wang Lin's strength. It was a fundamental difference that made the other Ancient clan members not be able to match up to Wang Lin.

All these fortunes might not seem important one at the time, but stacked together, they caused a shocking effect!

As the black hole closed in, the 98 Wang Lins appeared. The 98 Wang Lins didn't use 98 different spells, they all used the same one!

He performed the Heaven Bull Charge he had obtained from the sliver of memory after using the Heavenly Bull soul armor 98 times!

This Heavenly Bull Charge could perfectly display the borrowed power.

The 98 bodies all raised their hands and formed horns on their heads. As a continuous roar echoed, they charged forward!

The earth trembled and the sky turned into the void. The sun in the sky collapsed, and the only things left in the world were the Devil Dao Sect's old ancestor, his black hole, and the 98 Wang Lins!

The 98 Wang Lins dissipated until one body was left. It let out a heaven-shattering roar after using 98 Heavenly Bull Charges!

As the roar echoed, a giant Heavenly Bull shadow appeared. This shadow was very real, as if the Heavenly Bull's true body had escaped. After it appeared, it let out a Heavenly Bull roar!

This Heavenly Bull shadow was completely green and gave off an ancient aura. It contained an indomitable aura and raised its head. The two large, black horns charged forward as it let out a roar.

Heavenly Bull Charge!

From afar, the giant Heavenly Bull shadow covered Wang Lin, and it slammed into the black hole with its two black horns.

If this scene became a painting, it would become a beautiful treasure across the Immortal Astral Continent.

Rumble, rumble, rumble, rumble!!

The 27 spells inside the black hole were destroyed. The black hole itself trembled and disintegrated due to the impact!

The collapse of the black hole caused the Heavenly Bull's giant head to pause for a moment, but it could not stop it. The Heavenly Bull charged toward the Devil Dao Sect's old ancestor.

All of this happened very fast. The moment the black hole collapsed, the horn of the Heavenly Bull arrived before the Devil Dao Sect's old ancestor.

The red-haired old man's expression suddenly changed. His eyes revealed a rare trace of shock and he rapidly retreated.

"A fusion of 98 spells. He can't fuse the dao with his body, but this method achieves a similar effect. If he could use one more spell, wouldn't he be stronger!?

"The limit of Empyrean Exalt is 99, and one more than that would be considered reaching Ascendant Empyrean! After borrowing the power of the soul armor, he is so powerful!!" The red-haired old man raised his hands. With a roar, he attacked several times.

"This is almost enough to be comparable to an Ascendant Empyrean cultivator!! He hasn't fused his dao with his body and these 98 spells are not a whole; they were fused by force and are not perfect, but even so, I can barely resist!"

Every punch was formed by a fusion of 27 spells, and they all collided with the Heavenly Bull. This caused the 98 spells inside the Heavenly Bull to collapse one by one.

The collision with the black vortex earlier had caused nearly 40 spells to collapse within the Heavenly Bull. Now the red-haired old man attacked once more, and more than 40 spells collapsed again.

However, more than 10 spells hadn't dissipated, and they slammed into the red-haired old man. He coughed out blood and was pushed back, but at the same time, Wang Lin created 98 afterimages once more. With a roar, the second Heavenly Bull Charge appeared!

Another large Heavenly Bull appeared in the sky and charged forward.

"What powerful strength and speed. I couldn't even resist the first wave, and the second wave arrived so fast! His body has to be extremely powerful to be able to bear casting continuously like this!!"

The red-haired old man suddenly retreated. As the second Heavenly Bull shadow charged at him again, a Grand Empyrean aura erupted from the purple dao robe he was wearing.

This dao robe was a gift from Grand Empyrean Dao Yi. At key moments, it could save one's life!

When the Grand Empyrean aura appeared, a vague shadow appeared before the Devil Dao Sect's old ancestor. This shadow was formed by a sliver of Grand Empyrean Dao Yi's divine sense.

This figure appeared suddenly and blocked the Heavenly Bull Charge. Then it suddenly turned and threw a punch at the Heavenly Bull Charge!

This punch looked very ordinary, like a mortal was throwing it. Even the world was calm, like if nothing happened, but the Heavenly Bull instantly collapsed. The 98 spells inside were all destroyed.

When the Heaven Bull shadow collapsed, Wang Lin was pushed out and his face was pale, but his eyes were fierce.

"Grand Empyrean Dao Yi!!"

"Greetings, Grand Empyrean Dao Yi!!" Behind the vague shadow, the Devil Dao Sect's old ancestor immediately clasped his hands and bowed toward the shadow.

The shadow was originally a blur, but soon it went from a blur to clearly revealing the figure inside.

This was a young man wearing a dao robe. He only looked around 20-something. He had black hair and sharp brows. He was very handsome, and his star-like eyes that would make one lose themselves if one looked into them.

He wore a simple dao robe and looked very ordinary standing there. However, the heavens didn't move, the wind didn't move, nothing moved! Even the operation of the heavens and earth seemed to completely stop.

Before him, there was still some dust floating. That dust had floated into the air due to the battle and should have fallen down, but right now it was frozen in the air.

There was also the collapsed earth. Some of the surface was being torn apart by the shockwave of the battle, but right now, it was completely frozen.

This scene caused Wang Lin's pupils to shrink. He even felt that his own heartbeat began to slow due to this strange aura; it was as if it was going to stop like everything else.

What was particularly shocking was the blood the Devil Dao Sect's old ancestor had coughed out. It should have fallen to the earth, but it was now floating.

"Is this the power of a Grand Empyrean… This is just a sliver of divine sense left on the robe… Just this sliver of divine sense can have such shocking pressure that the world and everything in it doesn't dare to move!"

Wang Lin looked ahead. It wasn't that everything was frozen, but everything didn't dare to move after Grand Empyrean Dao Yi appeared.

"You are qualified to follow me. Those that follow me won't die as long as I don't die!" the black-haired youth slowly said as he looked at Wang Lin. His eyes were filled with endless wisdom and light.

The black-haired youth was Grand Empyrean Dao Yi. He looked at Wang Lin, and his words contained a strange force that would make anyone who heard them feel endless awe and conviction.

It was as if his words were the rule of the world and his voice was the promise of the heavens.

I won't die, you won't die!

This was a heavy commitment Grand Empyrean Dao Yi had given to recruit Wang Lin. Although he looked very calm and casual, this promise was very heavy!

When the Devil Dao Sect's old ancestor heard the promise from Grand Empyrean Dao Yi, his expression changed. Waves of emotions echoed in his heart and he looked at Wang Lin with a complicated expression.

He had followed Grand Empyrean Dao Yi for more than 10,000 years and had a vague understanding of Grand Empyrean Dao Yi. This kind of commitment was very rare from him!

It has to be said that when Grand Empyrean Dao Yi recruited him, he only said, "I won't die and you won't die for 100,000 years!"

But at this moment, the Devil Dao Sect's old ancestor noticed that there was no time added to Grand Empyrean Dao Yi's words. It was actually "I won't die, you won't die!

The meaning of this sentence was too great!!

"This person obtained the high recognition of the Heavenly Bull soul and has power close to an Empyrean Exalt. After putting on the soul armor, his cultivation level is infinitely lose to Ascendant Empyrean. This person… No wonder Grand Empyrean Dao Yi values him so much." The Devil Dao Sect's old ancestor sighed in his heart.

Wang Lin silently pondered. Grand Empyrean Dao Yi was the first Grand Empyrean he had met, and he can hear the promise in those words.

"Grand Empyrean, this matter is very important to me. I can't decide immediately and need to consider." Wang Lin clasped his hands and bowed at Grand Empyrean Dao Yi.

Wang Lin didn't want to make a decision after only meeting one Grand Empyrean. Also, after battling the Devil Dao Sect's old ancestor, he became aware of the ways of the Empyrean Exalts. He knew he was not famous enough, so he had to gain more fame!

Only after becoming more famous and choosing a Grand Empyrean to follow would the danger of entering the imperial city decrease.

The black-haired youth looked at Wang Lin. His eyes were filled with wisdom seemed to be able to see through Wang Lin's thoughts and smiled.

"I'll give you time. With your power, you can try the Empyrean Trials. If you can break through the ninth level, I'll come to see you again." With that, he turned toward the Devil Dao Sect's old ancestor and then turned back into the dao robe.

After Grand Empyrean Dao Yi was gone, everything that was frozen moved again. They returned to their original trajectory. Dust fell and the wind blew by.

As the surroundings recovered, the pressure that shocked Wang Lin also disappeared. It was as if everything that had just happened never happened.

The Devil Dao Sect's old ancestor let out a sigh and clasped his hands at Wang Lin.

"The matter with the Devil Dao Sect is done… But you missed the opportunity to follow Grand Empyrean Dao Yi immediately… Alas." The strong always respected each other. The fierce battle between the two of them made the red-haired old man respect Wang Lin.

After he finished speaking, the red-haired old man turned to leave.

"Fellow Cultivator, please wait. The reason I destroyed the Devil Dao Sec is because the entire sect used their full power to put me into a life or death situation, not just one person," Wang Lin slowly said. He seldom explained himself, but the Devil Dao Sect's old ancestor had earned Wang Lin's respect.

The red-haired old man stopped and pondered for a bit.

"Forget it. The world is a cycle of karma. You destroying the Devil Dao Sect is now just a calamity for the Devil Dao Sect, but it also cut me off from ordinary matters. From now on, I can focus on seeking dao." The red-haired old man sighed and looked at Wang Lin.

"Grand Empyrean Dao Yi is extremely biased toward his own people, more so than the other Grand Empyreans. With your current strength, choosing to follow Grand Empyrean Dao Yi would be a very good choice.

"Among the the Grand Empyreans, the Celestial Emperor Grand Empyrean Eight Extremes is the most proud. The Central Continent's Grand Empyrean Jiu Di is the most overbearing. The Northern Continent's Grand Empyrean Wu Feng is the most picky, and aside from Ascendant Empyreans, he rarely recruits Empyrean Exalts.

"And the Eastern Continent's Purple Dao Sect's Grand Empyrean Gemini… Was originally the most powerful among the Grand Empyreans. But during the last reincarnation, her soul split in half and transformed into two people. She can't recover in this lifetime. Although it was rumored that her personality was very gentle, she would not be my choice." The red-haired old man knew that compared to an Empyrean Exalt, the Devil Dao Sect was just an ant. It was not worth getting on the bad side of an Empyrean Exalt for the Devil Dao Sect.

Most importantly, this Empyrean Exalt was extremely powerful! As a result, he spoke of matters Empyrean Exalts should know to erase the unpleasantness from before.

Wang Lin didn't know about this matter before at all. Although he looked unmoved, after hearing it, he was moved.

"Thank you, Fellow Cultivator, for the information." Wang Lin clasped his hands.

"There is also the Empyrean Trial… Since I'm the first Empyrean Exalt you fought, you must not know about the Empyrean Trial. It is a strange place created by the Celestial Ancestor. It is a space separated from this world where Empyrean Exalt cultivators can obtain accurate judgement on their strength."

The red-haired old man slowly continued, "The Empyrean Trial has a total of 19 layers, and only Empyrean Exalts can center. With my cultivation level 500 years ago, I tried once, but I only passed the third layer and failed at the fourth."

"The Empyrean Trial?" Wang Lin's eyes narrowed. He had heard Grand Empyrean Dao Yi talking about earlier, but he didn't know what it was. However, after hearing the red-haired old man, he understood a bit.

"I once heard from Grand Empyrean Dao Yi that the Empyrean Trial was created by the Celestial Ancestor and that it copies the Immemorial God Realm. If you can break through the 19th layer, then your chance of becoming a Grand Empyrean becomes higher than others after entering the Immemorial God Realm!

"A long time ago, Grand Empyrean Wu Feng broke through the 19th layer. Then, during one of the openings of the Immemorial God Realm, he got lucky and became a Grand Empyrean!" The red-haired old man didn't hide anything. Even if he didn't explain these things, Wang Lin would learn about them once he interacted with other Empyrean Exalts. These were not secrets.

Wang Lin immediately asked, "How do I enter the Empyrean Trial?"

The red-haired old man looked at the sky and slowly said, "Very simple. As long as you obtain the recognition of the Immortal Astral Law as an Empyrean Exalt, you only need to find a safe place in the land of the celestials. Then fly out with your origin soul into the sky as fast as possible. After 60 breaths of time, you can enter the Empyrean Trial created by the Celestial Ancestor.

"Rumor has it that at the land of the ancients, the Ancient Ancestor copied the Immemorial God Realm as well and created a suitable trial ground for the Ancient Clan.

"Even more rumors that above these two trials was a Grand Empyrean Trial created by the two ancestors together. However, this is only a rumor and I don't know much." The red-haired old man finished speaking and clasped his hands at Wang Lin.

"Fellow Cultivator, this old man has told you what I need to. Goodbye!" The red-haired old man didn't even look at the Devil Dao Sect that had become a ruin. In a flash, he turned into a ray of light and disappeared.

Wang Lin still stood there and silently looked ahead even after the old man had left. He had decisively refused Grand Empyrean Dao Yi and had given up that opportunity, but he didn't regret it.

"Five Grand Empyreans. Aside from the Celestial Emperor and Dao Yi, there are three more… With my current strength, I gained some insight after battling my first Empyrean Exalt. The more Empyrean Exalts I fight, the more fame I'll gain!

"And also, the Empyrean Trial… I didn't expect that there would be such a place on the Immortal Astral Continent. I just don't know if what the Devil Dao Sect's old ancestor said was true or false."

Wang Lin sat down and pondered. Sitting in the ruins, he constantly replayed his battle against the Devil Dao Sect's old ancestor and the punch from Grand Empyrean Dao Yi in his mind.

This punch continued to reappear in his mind until it replaced everything. Wang Lin was fully immersed in the punch from the Grand Empyrean.

This punch seemed soft, but it contained a force Wang Lin couldn't comprehend. Time passed and several months went by in a flash.

During these several months, Wang Lin had been sitting there, motionless, but there was a protective force around him that made it so no one could approach.

The Devil Dao Sect cultivators that returned one by one all saw the ruins of the Devil Dao Sect, and their hearts trembled, especially after they saw Wang Lin. Some of them recognized him.

However, they could not get close to the protective force, and after a while, they quickly dispersed in fear. But some Devil Dao Sect members didn't leave; they stayed far away and didn't get close.

Wang Lin sat there for a year.

This one year of time was only a flash to him. On a certain day after one year, Wang Lin slowly opened his eyes. He looked at the sky and his eyes shined brightly.

"That punch, I have calculated every possible way to resist that punch. I have simulated millions of times, but not once could I resist it… That was just a sliver of Grand Empyrean Dao Yi's divine sense…" Wang Lin sighed.

The joy from the increase in his cultivation level had died down. Compared to a Grand Empyrean, he was far too weak.

"However, although this is the case, I still gained a lot of insight, especially in the battle against the Devil Dao Sect's old ancestor. Integrating dao into the body and one punch containing 27 spells… I can imitate and learn it!" Wang Lin's eyes shined brightly. This battle had given him great insight.

"I need to find a place to comprehend for a while." At Wang Lin's cultivation level, he could go anywhere in the land of the celestials.

At this moment, Wang Lin stood up and looked at the surrounding ruins. He naturally sensed the members of the Devil Dao Sect that had returned from the Heavenly Bull Continent.

"Forget it." Wang Lin walked forward and instantly disappeared.

The imperial edict from the Celestial Emperor told Wang Lin to meet him in the imperial city, but it didn't give a date, so Wang Lin naturally wouldn't go immediately.

In a flash, three years passed.

In these three years, Wang Lin created a cave under the vast desert of the Meng Earth Continent. He sat there and comprehended all the insight he had gained from fighting the Devil Dao Sect's old ancestor.

After three years under the desert, Wang Lin opened his eyes. His eyes looked like they contained the stars.

"Due to my cultivation level without the soul armor, at most my punch can only contain nine spells." Wang Lin raised his right hand before him and squeezed. Muffled rumbles came from his palm.

"Even so, my punch is much stronger than it was three years ago. If I were to face the Devil Dao Sect ancestor again without the soul armor, I could match his first punch!"

When Wang Lin faced the Devil Dao Sect's old ancestor's first punch, he was forced back three steps. Now, after three years, although this cultivation level remained the same, his battle strength had increased greatly.

"Unfortunately, after three years of observation, I learned that Golden Exalt origin souls can only allow me to create up to six Spell Veins, and I will need nine of them!" Wang Lin had clearly felt the power of the Rapid Spell Art in his battle against the Devil Dao Sect's old ancestor.

However, the reason this spell was so powerful was because the Spell Veins Wang Lin had formed were very high quality. But the higher the quality, the more difficult it was to create new Spell Veins.

The Devil Dao Sect's sect master's origin soul had opened up the fourth and fifth Spell veins, but the sixth Spell Vein required nine Golden Exalts!

"To create new Spell Veins like this is really… too difficult. The sixth vein requires nine Golden Exalts, the seventh requires nine Empyrean Exalts. Could the eighth require nine Ascendant Exalts… If so, would the ninth require nine Grand Empyreans… Perhaps the ninth will only require one Grand Empyrean…" Wang Lin smiled bitterly.

"The Rapid Spell Art must be cultivated. It is extremely powerful and it allows me to use my full power!

"My real cultivation level is only early stage Void Tribulant. Due to this restriction, at most my fist can only integrate nine spells. I must obtain the metal and wood essences as soon as possible and form their essence true bodies. Then, with five elements fused into one, my cultivation level will rise to mid stage Void Tribulant.

"Then I can integrate even more spells. I just don't know how many I will be able to fuse after reaching the mid stage of Void Tribulant!

"Aside from that, I must battle against even more Empyrean Exalts and gather the attention of the rest of the Grand Empyreans… In addition, I must seek information about the Empyrean Trial and see if it is really as what the Devil Dao Sect's old ancestor had said."

Wang Lin's eyes lit up and he stood up from his three years of sitting.

"I must head to the Empyrean Trial and see how many levels I can break through with my current cultivation level!"

Wang Lin's body appeared on the desert in a flash. He waved his sleeve and a sea dragon appeared below him. The sea dragon let out a roar and revealed a look of respect.

Wang Lin's expression was calm as he stepped into the head of the sea dragon. The sea dragon rushed forward and disappeared without a trace.

"The Meng Earth Continent has two sects. One is the Earth Sect and the other is the Meng Earth Sect! Both are part of the nine sects and thirteen factions, but they only have Golden Exalts, no Empyrean Exalts!" Wang Lin sat on the sea dragon and checked the introduction of the Meng Earth Continent from the tortoise shell.

"Although I need the origin souls of Golden Exalts, these two sects have no feud with me, so forget it!" Wang Lin eyes lit up and he sent out a divine sense message. The sea dragon under him flew toward the Heaven Continent that was connected to the Meng Earth Continent.

The tortoise vaguely pointed out that the Heaven Continent's Heaven Sect had an Empyrean Exalt!

"However, although the map in the tortoise shell looks large, it is only a portion of the map. I need to head to the two sects in the Meng Earth Continent to obtain their map jades."

If Wang Lin entered the Meng Earth Continent with his previous cultivation level, both sects would be behemoths he wouldn't want to provoke, so he would have carefully avoided them. However, it was different now. In his view, they were ordinary sects and there was nothing terrifying about them.

"This place is closest to the Earth Sect, so let's go there first!" The map appeared in Wang Lin's mind, and a moment later, the sea dragon changed directions. It flew straight east and disappeared without a trace.

The Meng Earth Continent was mostly covered by deserts, and the deserts continued like an ocean. Whenever a storm rolled by, large amounts of sand would fly up, creating a terrifying sandstorms.

These sandstorms could be strong or weak. Weak ones could make a mortal tremble, but a strong sandstorm would cause cultivators to tremble and immediately avoid it. This was because the sandstorm contained a strange magnetic force that had a huge effect on cultivators. It would suck a cultivator in, and not even their origin soul can escape.

Fortunately, sandstorms that contained this kind of magnetic force were rare. They were huge and could be seen from far away, giving pme time to avoid it. However, on the eastern part of the continent, there was a region that was covered in a sandstorm year-round. Every hundred years, the sandstorm would erupt with its full power, and almost no could could be seen around the region during that time.

Normally, this place was dark and covered by the sandstorm. This made it very difficult to enter unless one had a special method.

In this strange sandstorm, there was a sect that was famous across the Meng Earth Continent: the Earth Sect!

In the Meng Earth Continent, there were numerous sects, but only the Earth Sect and the Meng Earth Sect were the heads of the continent. No one dared to provoke these two giant sects, and they controlled the entire Meng Earth Continent.

At this moment, in the sandstorm where the Earth Sect was located, the world was dark. A huge sea dragon appeared, and Wang Lin was sitting on its head. The moment they appeared in the sandstorm, there was a powerful howl of wind.

Although this wind was abnormally powerful, when it landed on Wang Lin, it couldn't even cause a strand of his hair to move. It was as if Wang Lin's body was an illusion and not real.

As for the sea dragon, it didn't care about the wind at all. It revealed a cold gaze and stared into the depths of the sandstorm.

Feeling the sandstorm, it contained the power of the wind and earth. Wang Lin calmly allowed the sea dragon to fly forward. The wind raged before him, but the sand that got near Wang Lin immediately surrendered and scattered.

They casually flew toward the center of the sandstorm. There was an earth-yellow light that covered an area of tens of thousands of kilometers that prevented the sandstorm from reaching inside.

That place was the location of the Earth Sect.

The entire Earth Sect was like a garden of eden, and it seemed very special inside the sandstorm. There were mountains, flowing water, and pavilions everywhere. There was also a large amount of disciples flying through this area.

The Earth Sect had less than 30,000 disciples, this was very different from the other nine sects and thirteen factions. The Earth Sect only want the talented and not ordinary disciples!

The disciples had a strict hierarchy, and there was a total of nine different ranks. At the same time, the amount of resources each disciple got was far more than the rest of the sects because there were only 30,000 disciples!

They spent all their resources to cultivate these 30,000 disciples, especially those that had more talent. The Earth Sect had also gathered an unimaginable amount of resources.

In the Earth Sect Sect, the amount of rank 1 sect members was very low, less than 100 people. The rank 9 sect members numbered the highest, more than 20,000.

At this moment, where the rank 5 sect members were located, there was a beautiful pavilion. Two cultivators were sitting inside.

One was a man and the other was a woman. The man looked like he was only around 30 years old. He was very handsome but gave off a cold aura. His cultivation level wasn't high, only at the second step of Nirvana Scryer.

The woman beside him was not cultivating but was looking at the man beside her with a soft gaze. Her gaze was filled with attachment.

However, just at this moment, the man sitting there trembled violently. His face became distorted, as if it was very painful, and he let out muffled roars.

This sudden change caused the woman's expression to change. She immediately placed her hand on his chest and injected her cultivation into his body.

A moment later, the pain on his face reduced and he suddenly opened his eyes. In a short period of time, his body was soaked in sweat.

The woman wiped the sweat from the man's forehead as she bit her lip and softly said, "You… You have tried many times, don't try again… That dream, is it really that important?"

The man silently pondered and looked out the window. After a long time, he calmed down.

"That dream is very important!!"

"More important than me?" The woman bit her lower lip until it bled.

Confusion appeared in the man's eyes.

"This dream has accompanied me for nearly 200 years… There is a person in that dream. I can't see her appearance, but I feel like I exist just for her… It seems like she was my wife in my previous life…"

"It's just a dream, Qing, it's just a dream!!" Tears appeared in the woman's eyes as she looked at the man she had loved deeply for more than 100 years.

"Is it a dream…" The man named Qing was even more confused.

"It's just a dream…" The woman cried as she hugged the man like she was afraid of losing him. She continued to say these words to him.

"Is it really just a dream…" The man closed his eyes.

At this moment, while the man was confused, Wang Lin calmly flew over the light curtain. He flew through the raging sandstorm and felt the magnetic force inside, but he could ignore it.

The sea dragon stopped while carrying Wang Lin and remained unmoving in the wind. However, the sea dragon's eyes stared at the Earth Sect ahead with a cold gaze.

"Earth Sect's sect master, old ancestor, quickly come out!" In the sandstorm, Wang Lin's divine sense spread out like thunder throughout the entire Earth Sect. It echoed in the heart of every cultivator, including the confused man.

Wang Lin's voice echoed across the world; not even the endless sandstorm around the Earth Sect could suppress his voice. Everything seemed to freeze before Wang Lin's voice.

It only seemed like everything frozen, as the wind and sand still moved.

However, even so, his divine sense caused a storm that shook the souls of all the cultivators in the Earth Sect.

Under his divine sense, the higher one's cultivation level, the stronger one felt it. The old ancestor of the Earth Sect was at the Golden Exalt stage. Although the sect master hadn't reached Golden Exalt, he was still a late stage Void Tribulant cultivator.

The two of them were the most powerful cultivators in the Earth Sect.

At this moment, the Earth Sect's sect master was currently scolding his three disciples. He had a serious expression and was angrily scolding one of them. His words caused a pressure that made the disciples tremble.

But at this moment, Wang Lin's divine sense spread out. He didn't want to hurt anyone, so the three low cultivation level disciples could resist, but their expressions changed and they felt like a wind had blown by.

However, the expression of the Earth Sect's sect master changed greatly. He felt like hundreds of thousands of bolts of thunder had exploded in his mind and the world was collapsing on him. His body trembled and he rushed out of the sect without hesitation.

He didn't dare to not come out, he didn't dare to disobey!

There was also the Golden Exalt of the Earth Sect. He was in closed door cultivation year-round and would not easily come out. At this moment, he was sitting there when his heart rumbled. Wang Lin's divine sense was overbearing and forced through all obstacles to echo in his heart.

The Earth Sect's Golden Exalt old ancestor opened his eyes, and they were filled with shock and fear.

"Empyrean Exalt!" At this moment, the Golden Exalt felt the world collapse before him. He felt that only one fragment needed to fly toward him to make him fall.

Fear filled his mind. The Golden Exalt old ancestor immediately teleported outside the Earth Sect.

Aside from them, in a pavilion in the rank 5 region, the man named Qing felt this divine sense as well. His body trembled and he became even more confused than before.

Not only him, but the woman next to him also trembled, and a flash of confusion appeared in her eyes.

The entire sect of 30,000 disciples all felt their minds tremble, but it was due to awe. Confusion only appeared in the man and woman.

However, neither of them knew that at that moment, both of them looked so similar.

Outside the Earth Sect, Wang Lin calmly stood at the head of the sea dragon and looked at the sandstorm before him. The Earth Sect's old ancestor appeared, followed by a ray of light that was the Earth Sect's sect master.

When the Golden Exalt old ancestor appeared, he saw the sea dragon under Wang Lin. The moment he saw the dragon, his heart skipped a beat. The sea dragon was equivalent to a Golden Exalt cultivator, and a powerful one at that. It was slightly stronger than the Devil Dao Sect's sect master.

"A Golden Exalt sea dragon as a mount…" The Golden Exalt old man felt sweat on his forehead. He looked at Wang Lin, calmly standing on the sea dragon's head, and his heart trembled when he met Wang Lin's gaze. He quickly clasped his hands and bowed respectfully at Wang Lin.

"Earth Sect's Zheng Tianlin greets Senior."

As he spoke, the sect master also arrived, but with just a glance, his face turned pale. He was shocked by Wang Lin's luxurious mount and obediently stood beside the old ancestor. He bowed at Wang Lin in awe.

"Junior didn't notice Senior had arrived, I hope Senior can forgive me. If Senior doesn't mind, please come into the Earth Sect so Junior can pay his respects." The Golden Exalt Zheng Tianlin was very respectful and didn't dare to be rude. He was afraid of offending this terrifying Empyrean Exalt.

He didn't even dare to spread out his divine sense to check Wang Lin's cultivation level. It was very rude for a weaker cultivator to spread out their divine sense to check the cultivation level of a powerful cultivator.

With that terrifying divine sense, he could clearly judge that the person before him was an Empyrean Exalt. The Golden Exalt sea dragon also caused his heart to tremble.

"I have only meet Empyrean Exalts twice,and each of them can make a continent tremble… This person suddenly appeared before my sect; could it be that someone in my sect has offended him?"

Wang Lin smiled and said to the old man, "No need to enter the sect. I'm passing by the Meng Earth Continent and need the most complete map your sect has. Can you give me one?"

With that smile, the Golden Exalt let out a big sigh of relief. He was afraid someone in the sect had offended this Empyrean Exalt. It has to be said there were only around 1,000 Empyrean Exalts in total. Most of them were on the Central Continent, some followed a Grand Empyrean, and the rest stayed in a sect, acting the true ancestor.

After hearing that Wang Lin had only come here for a map, the old man named Zheng Tianlin quickly nodded.

"Senior is being polite. Junior has the most complete map the sect owns on me. This contains the entire Eastern Continent and beyond. Even a big part of the Southern Continent." As he spoke, he waved his right hand and a golden jade appeared. He respectfully handed it to Wang Lin.

Wang Lin accepted the jade and scanned it with this divine sense. The map was wider than this tortoise shell, and it was quite detailed.

"It even has maps of the Southern Continent." Wang Lin smiled and looked at the Golden Exalt old man.

Seeing that Wang Lin was very satisfied, the Golden Exalt old man relaxed even more.

"When Junior became a Golden Exalt, I went out to gain experience. I went far south and recorded everything I saw along the way and left it in the jade. If Senior needs it, there is no need to make a copy. Just take it, Junior has backups."

After putting away the jade, Wang Lin wanted to give some benefits, but he had just reached the Empyrean Exalt stage. He was also held at the scorpion temple for over 100 years, so he really didn't have anything worth taking out.

It has to be said that a map jade was very secretive and would often not be given out casually. It was the accumulation of several generations of a sect.

After pondering a bit, Wang Lin's right hand reached out at the void and fire gathered in his palm. This fire turned into an Immortal Fire seed that contained some fire essence.

"I won't take your sect's map for nothing. This contains a trace of fire essence. If anyone inside your sect can sense it, it can increase their chances of forming a fire essence." Wang Lin waved his right hand and it flew toward the old man.

The old man's face revealed a joyous expression. He quickly received it and put it away inside his storage space. He bowed at Wang Lin but secretly sighed in his heart. Every Empyrean Exalt he had met was extremely stingy. The two he had encountered before were like this, and the third one now as the same.

After giving the fire seed and taking the jade, Wang Lin turned to leave. He casually spread out his divine sense across the sect. This was a subconscious behavior due to his cautious nature. The sea dragon flew 1,000 feet up.

"Goodbye, Senior!" The Golden Exalt old man relaxed completely and clasped his hands.

The Earth Sect's sect master that had accompanied him but had no qualification to speak also clasped his hands.

But just at this moment, Wang Lin suddenly stopped and turned around. He stared at the Earth Sect and a huge wave was set off in his heart.

At that instant, his divine sense spread out and he felt a soul aura that made his mind tremble!!

The sea dragon felt Wang Lin's divine sense and let out a roar toward the sky. It then charged toward the Earth Sect.

This change was too sudden; the Golden Exalt Zheng Tianlin simply didn't expect it at all. He turned around, and as his expression changed, the sea dragon flew over his head into the Earth Sect.

"Senior!!" Zheng Tianlin's expression became suspicious and he turned around to look at the Earth Sect's sect master, who was also shocked. They turned into two rays of light and flew after Wang Lin.

As the sea dragon rushed into the Earth Sect, its roars echoed across the world, making the 30,000 disciples tremble. They felt the illusion of heaven's might descending.

The sea dragon floated above the area of the rank 5 members. Wang Lin stood on the dragon's head and looked down. He entered a trance.

The Earth Sect's old ancestor and sect master quickly caught up. The sect master was pale. He didn't know why Wang Lin had suddenly come here. He looked at Wang Lin and his heartbeat accelerated.

"Senior, these are my sect's rank 5 sect members…" The Golden Exalt old man felt bitterness in his heart. He took a deep breath and quickly gave an introduction.

"Rank 5 disciples, listen to my order. Everyone come out and greet Senior!" The Golden Exalt old man's mind turned rapidly. He vaguely guessed that the reason this emotionless Empyrean Exalt had suddenly rushed here was because one of the rank 5 disciples had made him unhappy or was a descendant of an enemy.

"Fortunately, it's just the rank 5 members. Even if they all die, we can't offend this Empyrean Exalt!" The Golden Exalt Zheng Tianlin immediately made a decision. All the rank 5 disciples walked out with pale expressions. They knelt toward Wang Lin and were about to bow.

Among the crowd, there was the man named Qing and the woman beside him.

The two of them were about to bow, but Wang Lin's eyes lit up. He moved in a flash and waved his sleeves. A gentle force spread out and stopped them from kneeling.

Looking at the man, Wang Lin revealed a gentle expression.

"Big Brother Zhou…"

Wang Lin stepped forward. All the Earth Sect disciples between him and the man were all pushed aside by an invisible force. When Wang Lin's step landed, he appeared before the man named Qing.

"Senior…" The man was startled as he looked at Wang Lin. He was at a loss. The same look appeared on the woman's face, along with panic. Wang Lin was being accompanied by the old ancestor and the sect master, so he had to be a powerful person!

Old Ancestor Zheng Tianlin saw this and was shocked. Doubt appeared in his heart, but no matter how much he pondered, he couldn't think of the real answer, so he didn't act recklessly.

When the sect master saw this, coldness appeared in his eyes. He was suppressed by Wang Lin's aura and didn't dare to speak. He also couldn't see Wang Lin's expression, only his back. However, he felt like he had found an opportunity to act, so he pointed at the man named Qing and roared.

"The two of you have guts. Without Senior doing anything, I'll remove the two of you from the sect!" With that, he moved forward to show off.

"Stupid!!" When the Golden Exalt old man heard this, his expression changed. He turned to wave his sleeve and was going to stop the Earth Sect's sect master.

However, before he could do anything, Wang Lin turned and the gentleness in his eyes turned into a chilling gaze.

"Scram!"

This word was like a bolt of thunder that exploded in the Earth Sect, creating countless echoes and a powerful sound wave. All of this landed on the sect master, causing his body to tremble. He coughed out blood and was thrown far away.

One word, one sound could cause a late stage Void Tribulant sect master become seriously injured. The pupils of the Golden Exalt old ancestor shrank and he immediately clasped his hands at Wang Lin.

"Senior, please don't be angry. This descendent of Junior hasn't cultivated for long. Although talented, he is too reckless and has been spoiled by Junior. Junior will immediately remove his position as sect master and hand him over to Senior to deal with. Junior will find a new person to take the position!"

This sudden change startled the nearly 1,000 rank 5 disciples. They looked at Wang Lin with indescribable fear.

The man named Qing trembled and the woman beside him held his hand. Sweat appeared in their palms.

"You… What is your name now?" Wang Lin looked at the man named Qing. In a trance, he saw the person who had burned his body to protect the female corpse. Who laughed as he gave Wang Lin the Ascendant Crystal and burned his soul to fight against his enemy!

At this instant, Wang Lin saw the man who became a sword spirit and looked at the awakened Qing Shuang, who had lost her memory. The bitter pain and countless years of silent companionship where he waited forever. He never gave up, even in death and when she forgot him.

His feelings shocked the heavens, his feeling moved the earth!

The reincarnation spell was not able to hide your thousand-year obsession...

"My name is Qing…" the man softly said while looking at Wang Lin. Even facing Wang Lin, there was still that sense of coldness from his body.

"Qing… One word…" When Wang Lin heard this, he felt a stab of pain in his heart. This came from his understanding of the man before him and witnessing this man's bumpy life.

The man pondered for a moment and said, "Yes, I'm an orphan. I gave myself the name 'Qing.'" The woman beside him held his hand even tighter.

"Feelings that can't be forgotten even after reincarnation… He was infatuated and guarded a corpse for a thousand years. When she woke up, they were strangers. Countless years of waiting, waiting for her to remember him… Obsessed for life… In this life, his name is Qing… How is that his name? It's clearly the woman he is obsessed with. Qing Shuang's Qing!!" Wang Lin looked at the cold-looking man and didn't speak for a long time.

This coldness was different from Qing Shui's. This came from his previous life as a sword spirit. The coldness of the sword had nothing to do with emotions, and even after reincarnation, it was still there.

"I tempered with his and Qing Shuang's reincarnations… Especially Qing Shuang's. Even though she was Qing Lin's daughter, she was the one I changed the most!" Wang Lin sighed and looked at the woman next to the man. She looked nervous and panic filled her eyes. She grasped her lover's hand as if she was afraid of losing him. She seemed to be very afraid before Wang Lin, and if she wasn't holding her lover's hand, she would be helpless.

She was afraid of Wang Lin. The moment she saw Wang Lin, her body trembled. That fear came from her soul; it seemed to be engraved into her soul and couldn't be erased.

Wang Lin looked at the woman and slowly asked, "What is your name?"

The woman trembled, subconsciously retreated a few steps, and hid behind her lover. She held onto her lover's hand and her face was pale without any trace of blood.

"Her name is Zhou Yiting…" The person who answered Wang Lin was the man she was holding onto.

"Zhou Yiting…" After Wang Lin heard this name, he looked at the woman profoundly.

"Back then, Zhou Yi called Qing Shuang 'Ting Er…' In this life, she should not remember her past life…" Wang Lin closed his eyes. Back then, he did one thing.

He shouldn't have done this, because everyone had the right to their memories. But during Qing Shuang's reincarnation, he wiped her memory!!

It wasn't a seal, he had completely erased her memory!! This caused intense suffering for her soul. This was why she still felt unimaginable fear toward Wang Lin, even after reincarnation.

"I don't believe you didn't recover your memory of Zhou Yi, you just chose to be cold. I witnessed most of your time with Zhou Yi. Since you chose to forget and have chosen to reincarnate by my hands, then I'll assume you did this intentionally. Therefore, I'll help you erase your memory!!

"From now on, you will never have the memories of your previous life. You only have the memories of your current life!!" This was what Wang Lin had thought to himself when he erased Qing Shuang's memory.

He didn't tell this to anyone, nor did anyone notice. He did this on his own to help Zhou Yi.

While Wang Lin's eyes were closed, the man holding the hand of his longer hesitated and said, "Senior… You… Your cultivation level is high. Can you help me resolve a confusion…"

The moment he spoke, the woman grasped his hand tightly as if their hands were going to merge into one; not even death was going to separate them. She looked nervous and sad - she even seemed to forget her fear of Wang Lin.

"Qing, that's a dream. It's only a dream!!!"

Wang Lin opened his eyes and looked at the man.

The man held his lover's hand and softly muttered to her, "I just want to know the answer.

"While cultivating to this point, I felt like I have done it all before, and I quickly reached the point I'm at today… In these hundreds of years, I always had a dream, and this dream was the same...

"In that dream, there was a woman. I could only see her back and she wore white. She gave me a familiar feeling but also made me feel very sad and cold. I always wanted to see her face, I wanted to know who she was...

"I faintly felt like she was my wife in my previous life… If I had a previous life… She was probably my wife...

"It seems like the purpose of my existence is for her. To wait for her to turn around and look at me…" the man whispered, and his eyes revealed a deep sense of confusion.

His confused expression was the same as the one he had while guarding the corpse for a thousand years, hoping for a miracle...

The surroundings were completely quiet and only the man's voice echoed. The Golden Exalt old man looked at this and then at Wang Lin. He had some speculations and he silently pondered.

Wang Lin looked at the man and didn't speak for a long time. He could erase Qing Shuang's memory, but he didn't want to change this man's memory. Because this man was his friend, his benefactor.

Wang Lin wanted him to choose the right path in life himself.

"On the spring of one year, I walked under a tree and looked at a leaf. I liked it very much. When autumn came, I came to the tree again, but I could not find that green leaf. I thought I couldn't find it...

"But I didn't know that it was still there, it's just that its color had changed… When I turned to leave, the autumn wind blew by and the yellow leaf flew off. It circled me and accompanied me along the way, but in my melancholy from missing the green leaf, I never noticed that the leaf I was looking for was by my side the entire time...

"This is my answer to you." Wang Lin's eyes were filled with reminiscence as he spoke.

"If one dsy you find that my answer is correct, you can take this pill. This will make it so you will never see that dream again." Wang Lin turned and stepped toward the head of the sea dragon. He left a withered, yellow pill that was like an autumn leaf. It floated before the confused man.

"Zheng Tianlin, these two are my best friends, and they are now reincarnated into your sect. This is a great fortune for your sect. I'll help your sect three times!! If anything happens to them, I'll be coming to question you!" Wang Lin's voice echoed in the Golden Exalt old man's heart. At the same time, Wang Lin waved his hand and a jade with his imprint flew out toward the old man.

"Thank you, Empyrean Exalt!!" The Golden Exalt trembled and bowed at Wang Lin. This was a great gift!!

At this moment, a breeze blew by and caused the man and woman's hair to flutter. Two strands of their hair intertwined together like two butterflies dancing.

Wang Lin didn't unlock the man's memory seal but gave him a choice. He looked at the man profoundly before withdrawing his gaze. He stood on the sea dragon and it carried him away.

"Zhou Yi, Big Brother Zhou, forget me, forget the cave, forget your previous life. In this life, cherish the people near you. She is the one you waited for a lifetime to turn around, the figure in your dream." Wang Lin let out a sigh.

"This matter seems unfair to Qing Shuang and is not fair to Qing Lin… I shouldn't have done this… But Zhou Yi's thousand years of obsession… Forget it, I can't make it perfect." Wang Lin sighed.

As the sea dragon under him roared, they left the Earth Sect. Before Wang Lin came here, he didn't expect to meet him and her.

"Situ, Qing Shui, Xu Liguo, Liu Jinbaio… There are many friends from the past. I wonder if they are somewhere… looking at the same sky." Wang Lin sat on the head of the sea dragon as he looked up at the sky with a melancholy gaze.

"I wonder if Situ was able to begin his life as a king. I wonder where Senior Brother Qing Shui went. Xu Liguo is cunning and ever-changing. Liu Jinbiao comprehended the dao of deception, I wonder if he is still comprehending it...

"And also… Li Qianmei." After meeting the first old friend that reincarnated, Wang Lin felt ripples echo in his heart. Their vivid faces flashed through his mind.

The sea dragon rushed toward the other powerful sect on this continent, the Meng Earth Sect, under Wang Lin's command. This sect was equal to the Earth Sect.

With Wang Lin's Empyrean Exalt cultivation and the Golden Exalt sea dragon, the trip was smooth. The Meng Earth Sect respectfully handed over the map jade in fear of displeasing Wang Lin.

Wang Lin also spread out his divine sense in the Meng Earth Continent. Although the probability was not high, he still wanted to see if he could find some old friends.

But he found nothing.

With a sigh and a blessing toward Zhou Yi and Qing Shuang, Wang Lin sat on the sea dragon as it flew toward the Heaven Continent.

The entire Eastern Continent only had a few Empyrean Exalts. In the Heaven Continent, there was the Heaven Sect, which was part of the nine sects and thirteen factions. The old ancestor of the Heaven Sect was rumored to be a genius in the same generation as Luo Yunhai.

However, his cultivation stopped at Empyrean Exalt. He onced followed Grand Empyrean Gemini; however, something happened and he silently left. He returned to the sect and hadn't left for tens of thousands of years.

The strongest sect on the Heaven Continent was the Heaven Sect. Among the nine sects and thirteen factions, only the Heaven Sect ruled over the entire Heaven Continent.

The Heaven Sect was different from other sects. Instead of just one sect, they had a total of 19 branch sects across the Heaven Continent and completely controlled the resources of the whole continent.

At this moment in the Heaven Continent, a giant sea dragon quickly moved through the continent. Wang Lin was sitting on the head of the sea dragon, calmly looking at the earth below.

The reason this continent was called the Heaven Continent was because the clouds were all very low. The clouds were supposed to be high in the sky, but due to some strange changes, these clouds were close to the ground. It was as if one only needed to reach up and grab them.

As a result, the entire Heaven Continent was like a wonderland that was shrouded by clouds year-round.

In the Heaven Continent, there were countless mountains, and the highest peak was called the Heaven Peak. From afar, one couldn't see the whole mountain, as part of it was covered by the clouds. They made it look extraordinary.

On this day, the sea dragon appeared as ripples echoed. It floated in the sky and stared at the mountain below. Its Golden Exalt cultivation completely spread out and shrouded the area.

Wang Lin stood on its head in full white, looking extraordinary among the white clouds. He stepped across the endless white clouds toward the peak of the mountain.

Wang Lin stood on the top of the snowy peak and allowed the wind to cause his white hair to flutter. The sea dragon circled around him and looked around with a cold gaze.

"I'm Wang Lin. I request to meet the Heaven Sect's old ancestor on Heaven Peak!" Wang Lin's divine sense spread out like millions of bolts of thunder exploding. The rumble spread with him as the center like real thunder and covered more than half the Heaven Continent in a flash.

In the Heaven Continent, all the cultivators in all the branch sects of the Heaven Sect and the many sects that were under the Heaven Sect trembled when they felt this powerful divine sense sweep by.

Even the clouds above the Heaven Continent seemed to collapse. When the divine sense spread out, the clouds avoided it, so everything within millions of kilometers around Wang Lin became clear!

Heaven Continent, main location of the Heaven Sect. As Wang Lin's divine sense echoed through the endless mountains, a shocking aura erupted, causing the world to change colors. The clouds split as a white-haired old man walked into the sky.

As he stood there, the world seemed to tremble. He looked into the distance toward where the peak was. His eyes lit up, he waved his sleeve, and he disappeared.

When he reappeared, he was at the peak of Heaven Mountain. Ripples echoed as he walked out. He didn't even look at the sea dragon around the mountain but stared directly at Wang Lin.

There was 10,000 feet of sky between the two of them. As the old man looked over, Wang Lin looked up and his eyes shined. Their gazes met for the first time.

It all looked silent, but thunderous rumbles echoed in Wang Lin's mind. The old man's gaze was like hundreds of thousands of needles that entered Wng Lin's eyes. It seemed like they were going to pierce his body.

Wang Lin's body trembled and the golden light in his eyes became even stronger.

The white-haired old man's entire body trembled. He felt like Wang Lin's eyes contained a golden sword. This sword gave off extremely powerful celestial energy, it was sharp, and it even gave off a powerful pressure.

When it entered his mind, it felt like the golden sword had stabbed his body.

"Why did you summon me here?" The white-haired old man withdrew his gaze. He looked at Wang Lin with a serious expression.

"I have just entered the Empyrean Exalt stage and would like to ask Fellow Cultivator for some pointers, nothing else." Wang Lin had no grudge against the Heaven Sect. His words were polite and he clasped his hands at the white-haired old man.

The white-haired old man immediately laughed and battle intent appeared in his eyes. It was rare for a life or death battle to happen between Empyrean Exalts, but it was normal to have exchanges. However, because there were far too few Empyrean Exalts, it was rare for one to give up the chance to battle another.

This kind of exchange was good for both of them.

"Good!" The white-haired old man stepped forward and raised his right hand. He waved at Wang Lin on the peak and all the falling snow on the peak trembled. It formed a snowstorm and rushed at Wang Lin from all directions.

This snowstorm contained nine spells. The storm howled and raged as it drowned Wang Lin inside.

Wang Lin laughed as he raised his right hand and threw a punch!

This punch also contained nine spells, and they were nine War Spirit Prints!

Thunderous rumbles echoed and shook the surrounding world. The snowstorm trembled and exploded so that snow covered the world.

Thunderous rumbles continued to echoed across this place, along with the earth-shattering laughter.

Several hours later, Wang Lin's figure retreated out from the endless snow and stabilized himself tens of thousands of kilometers away.

"Fellow Cultivator's cultivation is extraordinary. This battle has benefited me greatly, many thanks!"

At the same time, the white-haired old man also retreated tens of thousands of feet in the other direction before stabilizing himself as well.

"You have just entered the Empyrean Exalt stage and you are able to fuse nine spells into your movements. You also don't look very old; this old man admires you!"

The two of them were tens of thousands of feet away from each other. They both clasped their hands at each other and smiled.

"Again?"

"Again!"

The two of them closed in rapidly from two different directions. The thunderous rumbles even caused the sea dragon's heart to tremble, and it retreated. It looked at the two terrifying figures and blinked before retreating some more.

This battle lasted for seven days. Wang Lin and the white-haired old man skirmished 23 times! Every skirmish, they would split apart to recover their cultivation and think about the previous skirmish. They would also talk to each other.

This kind of battle between Empyrean Exalts involved no hatred, so it was good insight for both of them.

"Fellow Cultivator Wang, I can see you are still holding back a bit. Our battle strengths are similar, so why not go all out?" At the end of the 23rd skirmish, the white-haired old man laughed from the distance.

"Ok!" Wang Lin stood up and his five-element true body appeared!

With only one true body, Wang Lin's battle power would increase and he could battle against an Empyrean Exalt that had fused 18 spells!

"Essence true body! And it's no ordinary essence true body, but an essence true body of a fusion of multiple essences!" The old man's pupils shrank as he looked at Wang Lin's essence true body.

The two of them attacked at the same time, and the white-haired old man no longer held back. He erupted with the power to fuse 17 spells!

Thunderous rumbles echoed and three days passed. After three days, Wang Lin smiled as he stepped onto the back of the sea dragon and it flew away.

"Fellow Cultivator Mu Rong, many thanks!"

As the snow fell, the white-haired old man stepped out and looked at Wang Lin's direction with a serious expression.

"He hasn't used his full strength… with his cultivation, I wonder how far he will get in the Empyrean Trial." The white-haired old man waited until Wang Lin disappeared completely before leaving.

"There is a new Empyrean Exalt in my celestial clan. This matter needs to be reported to the Grand Empyrean." These 10 days of battle had also given him a lot of insight.

In a flash, 50 years passed!

50 years of time was more than half of one's life for mortals, but for cultivators, it was just a short closed door cultivation session. But during these 50 years, a legend arose in the Immortal Astral Continent.

This legend spread between the Eastern and Southern Continents. This legend was about an Empyrean Exalt cultivator who wore white, had a head of white hair, and had a Golden Exalt sea dragon.

He moved through more than 30 continents among the Eastern and Southern Continents to search for Empyrean Exalts to battle!

There were nearly 100 Empyrean Exalts, including those that hadn't joined any Grand Empyrean and those that remained in closed door cultivation year-round. In particular, the Southern Continent had far more Empyrean Exalts than the Eastern Continent.

The Eastern Continent was originally ranked second among the five major continents. However, after Grand Empyrean Gemini's soul split during her last reincarnation, they gradually fell in rank and became the continent with the lowest number of Empyrean Exalts.

This white-robed Empyrean Exalt challenged all his fellow Empyrean Exalts. Those battles and thunderous rumbles echoed endlessly. Almost everyone in the sects across the two continents knew him.

In the Nuo Yun Continent, he had battled the Nuo Yun Sect's Empyrean Exalt old ancestor!

In the Hai Luo continent, he had battled the Virtue Sect's Empyrean Exalt old ancestor!

In the Nine Devil Continent, he had battled the Devil Heavenly Sect's Empyrean Exalt old ancestor!

In the Spirit Dragon Continent, he had battled Empyrean Exalt Hang Tao, who was under Grand Empyrean Dao Yi!

In the Mountain Spirit Continent, he had battled Empyrean Exalt Chi Feng, who was under Grand Empyrean Wu Feng!

One battle after another, one earth-shaking event after another, one achievement after another created a legend!

White-Haired Empyrean Exalt! Not many people knew of Wang Lin's name, and it was impossible to spread due to the rumors. As various clues were obtained and people learned that Wang Lin had white hair, they began calling him the White-Haired Empyrean Exalt!

It was rumored that the White-Haired Empyrean Exalt only lost 20 times after nearly 100 challenges. However, this series of wins was a shocking record, and his reputation spread to the north, west, and even the Central Continent.

Almost all the Empyrean Exalt cultivators in the Celestial Clan knew that a white-haired Empyrean Exalt had powerful battle capabilities!

Rumor had it that this unknown White-Haired Empyrean Exalt's last battle was in the Mountain Sea Continent against Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi. He had failed this battle! After that battle, he disappeared for years.

In the Mountain Sea Continent, there was a city built for cultivators to trade in. There was a restaurant, and an old man was drinking wine and slowly telling a story. "This White-Haired Empyrean Exalt battled against Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi above the sea. The sea collapsed, and it felt like even the world was going to collapse. I was at the edge of the sea at the time, and as the waves surged, I vaguely saw the figure of the White-Haired Empyrean Exalt!"

There were four or five cultivators around him that all began to listen closely.

"Unfortunately, the White-Haired Empyrean Exalt lost that battle." The old man sighed as if he was very familiar with the White-Haired Empyrean Exalt and felt regret for him.

"Grand Empyrean Hai Zi is rumored to be infinitely close to the Ascendant Empyrean stage. Even though the White-Haired Empyrean Exalt is powerful, he is no much for Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi!" A young cultivator sneered.

"Everyone knows that due to Grand Empyrean Dao Yi, our Southern Continent has a lot of Empyrean Exalts. Grand Empyrean Dao Yi never forces any Empyrean Exalts to join him, but any Empyrean Exalt in the Southern Continent can listen to a 100-year dao lecture once. This is why many Empyrean Exalts in the Eastern Continent come to our Southern Continent.

A middle aged man among them held up a fan and smiled. "I think the reason the White-Haired Empyrean Exalt has been challenging so many Empyrean Exalts over the last several decades is to attract the attention of Grand Empyrean Dao Yi."

A black-robed man who never spoke looked at the crowd and slowly said, "How do you know Grand Empyrean Dao Yi hasn't already tried to recruit the White-Haired Empyrean Exalt? I heard that Grand Empyrean Dao Yi tried to recruit him more than 50 years ago but was rejected."

"Oh? Such a thing happened?"

This restaurant was not big, and it was prepared for cultivators. It didn't sell food, but scented wine that was famous in the surrounding region. Only a limited amount was sold each day, and it was very popular among cultivators.

As these cultivators talked, a white-robed young man was sitting in the corner. He looked at the sky outside the restaurant and drank the wine in his hand.

He had a head of white hair, but he wasn't the only white-haired cultivator in the restaurant. There were three to five other white-haired cultivators around. It seemed that as the White-Haired Empyrean Exalt became more famous, more and more white-haired cultivators showed up.

Listening to the words entering his ears, Wang Lin put down the wine cup and frowned. Looking at the sky above, he silently pondered. During these past 50 years, he had challenged a number of Empyrean Exalts. While gathering fame, he was also becoming familiar with how Empyrean Exalts battled and trying to make himself stronger.

30 years ago, he went to the Mountain Sea Continent and battled the strongest Empyrean Exalt there, Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi. Wang Lin lost that battle! He had used all his avatars and still lost.

"Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi can fuse 70 spells into his finger. I'm not his match at all unless I put on the soul armor… But if I put on the soul armor, it would not allow me to gain experience." Wang Lin picked up the wine cup and took a sip.

"After 50 years of time, with both my essence true bodies, I can compress my nine spell limit almost three times! This allows me to achieve power similar to an Empyrean Exalt who can fuse 36 spells.

"In addition to the battles, I need to search for the metal and wood essences. Once I acquire those two essences and form their essence true bodies, my five-element true body will be complete. Then I can fuse 18 spells into my punch, and with the compression, I will be able to match an Empyrean Exalt that has fused 72 spells! I will be able to battle against Hai Zi again!

"Empyrean Exalt Chi Feng once said that at the bottom of the Mountain Sea, there is a Mountain Sea Tree. The entire sea is supported by this giant tree, and the entire Mountain Sea Continent is sealing the soul of the Mountain Sea Tree!

"This tree is extremely powerful. When the Celestial Ancestor sealed it, even he was injured. However, because too much time has passed, the Mountain Sea Tree soul has long become a dead soul, leaving only its branches. However, there should be enough wood essence inside that if I get it, my wood essence will be complete and I will be able to form an essence true body!" Wang Lin pondered as he drank wine.

"After I battled Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi, I started observing the Mountain Sea Continent. What Empyrean Exalt Chi Feng said is most likely true! Therefore, I can only use the soul armor and beat the guardian, Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi, to get into the Mountain Sea Tree and absorb the wood essence!" As Wang Lin pondered, he revealed a decisive gaze. He put down the wine cup and left a small origin stone before walking out of the restaurant.

This city built by cultivators contained a lot of cultivators. Aside from the shop, there were private stalls selling the treasures they had obtained.

Wang Lin walked through the city and disappeared in a flash. He reappeared in the sky in the distance, and just as he was about to leave, he stopped to look back.

The world behind Wang Lin distorted and a tall figure appeared. This figure was more than 100 feet tall and wore a purple robe that covered their whole body. This figure wore a golden mask, and the mask gave off a shocking pressure. The pressure spread out and caused ripples to echo around the figure.

If one looked from below, the area around Wang Lin and the masked figure would look like a lake with ripples echoing.

Wang Lin slowly said, "So it's Empyrean Exalt Chi Feng, who is under Grand Empyrean Wu Feng!"

"Fellow Cultivator Wang, we haven't seen each other in several years. I wonder if you have considered…" The golden-masked cultivator seemed to be smiling as he looked at Wang Lin.

Wang Lin had battled against Empyrean Exalt Chi Feng before. They were equal in strength when Wang Lin didn't have the soul armor on. Later, he found Wang Lin and conveyed Grand Empyrean Wu Feng's message.

He wanted to recruit Wang Lin!

This was the second Grand Empyrean after Dao Yi who wanted to recruit Wang Lin. Wang Lin learned that this Grand Empyrean Wu Feng was just as the Devil Dao Sect old ancestor had said. He was extremely aloof and rarely valued Empyrean Exalts. Only Ascendant Empyreans could attract his attention.

But that didn't mean there were no Empyrean Exalts under him, it was just that those under him were all exceptional talents, like Empyrean Exalt Chi Feng. Wang Lin clearly felt that Chi Feng had held back in their battle, just like he had.

"Back then, Empyrean Exalt Chi Feng passed the message from Grand Empyrean Wu Feng. He didn't come personally, nor did he appear with a trace of his divine sense. He obviously believed that with my battle power, it was only worth a message… Compared to Grand Empyrean Dao Yi, this is obviously lacking.

"However, it could be because Grand Empyrean Dao Yi saw my power after putting on the soul armor. That would explain it." Wang Lin pondered a bit and clasped his hands at Empyrean Exalt Chi Feng.

"Fellow Cultivator Chi Feng, I still need to consider this matter and I haven't made a decision."

Empyrean Exalt Chi Feng was not surprised about Wang Lin's delay. He only revealed a look of pity as he looked at Wang Lin and smiled bitterly.

"Fellow Cultivator Wang, we Empyrean Exalts have very high status in the celestial clan. Even Grand Empyreans should personally invite those who they wish to recruit, this I understand. Before I came here, Grand Empyrean Wu Feng told me that if you can break through the ninth level in the Empyrean Trials, he will come in person and not just an embodiment of his divine sense!

"Fellow Cultivator Wang, if you have time, please head to the Empyrean Trial. If you can break through the ninth level, I believe all five Grand Empyreans will try to pull you in." After Empyrean Exalt Chi Feng finished speaking, he clasped his hands at Wang Lin and his figure gradually disappeared.

Wang Lin silently pondered in the sky and looked at the sky after a long time.

"Empyrean Exalt… Grand Empyrean Dao Yi said that if I break through the ninth level, he will come again. Grand Empyrean Wu Feng also said the same. Could there be something special about the ninth level?"

Wang Lin had verified the method of entering the Empyrean Trial many times during the last 50 years, but he had never gone there. Now he pondered a bit and his eyes lit up.

"I should go check it out!"

In the Mountain Sea Continent of the Southern Continent, there was an inland sea called the Mountain Sea. This sea was vast, and sometimes large amounts of sea birds could be seen flying in the blue sky. The sound of the waves echoed and the west sea breeze blew to the shore.

The Mountain Sea occupied more than 70% of the Mountain Sea Continent, and the remaining 30% of land surrounded the Mountain Sea.

At this moment, at the northern part of the Mountain Sea, Wang Lin was standing on the peak of a mountain, calmly looking at the sea before him.

This was the closest place to the Mountain Sea Tree, but Wang Lin didn't chose to immediately go there. His body flickered and he disappeared from the peak. He reappeared inside a cave he had created.

Wang Lin had lived in this cave for three years and he had placed a large amount of restrictions around it. This place could provide a certain amount of protection for him.

In the cave, there was a looming, blue fog. Hidden inside was a sea dragon that had shrunk many times.

Sitting inside the cave, Wang Lin slowly closed his eyes and his hands rapidly formed seals. These seals were extremely special, and Wang Lin had learned them after verifying many times.

"Before I take the Mountain Sea Tree, I'll go see what kind of mysterious place the Empyrean Trial is!" Wang Lin was going to use the method to enter he had learned over the last 50 years. His divine sense gathered at his head and extended upward into a bright light.

This light was the light of his divine sense. After it gathered on Wang Lin's head for a moment, it shot into the sky at an unimaginable speed.

It penetrated the cave and mountain into the sky. Outsiders couldn't see or feel this light. The seals Wang Lin had used would hide all fluctuations of divine sense and protect all Empyrean Exalts when they entered the Empyrean Trial.

It was said these seals were passed down by the Celestial Ancestor!

Wang Lin's divine sense continued to rise up and broke through the void. It was like a heaven-piercing sword that was going to break open the sky above the Immortal Astral Continent!

The moment his divine sense reached the highest point, thunderous rumbles echoed in Wang Lin's mind. His divine sense felt like the sky had turned into a giant vortex and sucked in his divine sense.

His vision blurred. When he could see clearly, he looked around and was shocked.

He was on a continent that was about 10,000 kilometers wide. This continent was very small and floated in the sky. There were endless howling winds around the continent and black lines moving within the wind. These black lines held terrifying power; it felt like just touching one would destroy you.

At the center of the continent stood a giant palace. This palace gave off an ancient aura, it was completely black, and had an aura of majesty. All those that saw it couldn't help but feel a sense of awe in their heart.

When Wang Lin arrived here and began to observe, many divine sense senses came from beside the palace and swept by Wang Lin.

Every single of those divine senses contained the pressure of an Empyrean Exalt, and there are almost 200 of them.

"Wang Lin?"

"White-Haired Empyrean Exalt!"

"It's him!" Among these divine senses, there were Empyrean Exalts that had battled Wang Lin in the last 50 years. When they saw Wang Lin, they immediately recognized him.

Wang Lin's expression remained the same. As he looked around, he found that he was near an ancient transfer array. This transfer array was extremely complicated, and at a glance, Wang Lin felt like his divine sense was going to be sucked away.

After a long time, Wang Lin withdrew his gaze and walked out from the transfer array. He carefully observed his body as he felt like he was in his physical body. If not for the fact that he knew it was just his origin soul, he would find it difficult to find the difference.

"The Empyrean Trial was created by the Celestial Ancestor. It sure is mysterious!" Wang Lin flew toward the palace where all the divine senses came from.

The closer Wang Lin got, the more shocked he became. The ancient palace looked large from a distance, but after getting close, it was even more shocking. What was even more amazing was that after getting close, Wang Lin found that there were large palaces above this one!

A total of 19 palaces. They floated in the air and were connected together like a long dragon. The palaces at the top extended into the sky, and only their vague outlines could be seen.

"In my 50 years of understanding, the rumors said that the Empyrean Trial is actually the most powerful treasure the Celestial Ancestor had. It exists in the void and guards over the celestial clan." Wang Lin looked at the large palaces in the sky. Some of them were too far away, so he could only see a shadow, but he could still clearly feel the pressure.

As he got closer, Wng Lin saw nearly 200 cultivators around the first ancient palace. They were all far apart, as if they were unwilling to be together.

After Wang Lin arrived, many people looked over. Some people knew Wang Lin, so they smiled and clasped their hands.

Wang Lin clasped his hands in response. He stood outside the palace and looked at the behemoth. He felt the illusion that he was very small.

"The Empyrean Trial is a very strange place. No matter where you are, you can come here with your origin soul. This place is favored by the Empyrean Exalts because even if two people are far away, they can meet here.

"And due to this characteristic, the Empyrean Trial is the best place for Empyrean Exalts to meet." The information Wang Lin had gathered in the last 50 years appeared in his mind.

Just as Wang Lin was pondering, a bright, golden light came from the seventh palace floating in the sky. This golden light shrouded the area and immediately caused all the Empyrean Exalt cultivators to look up.

Wang Lin also looked up as a black figure flew out from the seventh palace. This black figure was a middle-aged man with long, flowing hair. He gave off a powerful aura as he charged from the seventh palace to the eighth palace.

"Empyrean Exalt Zhu Lin, he broke through the seventh level!"

"To be able to break through the seventh level means he has fused at least 63 spells. He didn't have this ability before!"

"He has followed Grand Empyrean Jiu Di for 1,000 years. He has clearly gained a lot…"

"The eighth level is nothing, but the ninth floor is the most important. If anyone can break through the ninth level, then every Grand Empyrean will pay attention to them."

"The ninth level… Is too difficult! Those that can breakthrough the ninth level are infinitely close to Ascendant Empyrean. Just one more step and they will be the 49th Ascendant Empyrean of my celestial clan!"

"Even the strongest Ascendant Empyrean, Ming Dao, was stopped at the 16th level and was unable to go further."

"Rumor has it that if someone can break through the 19th level, it means they are powerful enough to make even Grand Empyreans wary!"

As the golden light shined, the 200 or so Empyrean Exalts all sent divine sense messages to each other.

As they chatted due to Empyrean Exalt Zhu Lin's action, a roar came from the eighth palace. Empyrean Exalt Zhu Lin was ejected from the eighth palace and fell until he landed on the ground around the first palace.

The moment he landed, all the divine sense messages disappeared and their gazes gathered.

Empyrean Exalt Zhu Lin had a gloomy expression. He didn't even look around and walked past Wang Lin. He looked for a place in the distance and sat down.

After that, Wang Lin saw golden light come from the various palaces, and people were constantly being ejected. The highest place people were ejected from was the eighth palace, like Empyrean Exalt Zhu Lin, and the lowest were the second or third levels.

Wang Lin didn't rush to attempt, he sat there to observe. For three days, many cultivators came and went, but most of them chose to stay and didn't leave.

In the past three days, Empyrean Exalt Zhu Lin attempted the eighth palace again but still failed.

On the fourth day, Wang Lin's eyes lit up and he stood up and walked toward the first palace. His actions didn't attract much attention. After all, the first palace was too simple for the cultivators here.

Only the Empyrean Exalts that had battled Wang Lin looked over as he entered the first palace.

"Since the White-Haired Empyrean Exalt went to the first palace, it must be his first time here. I wonder how many levels he can break through."

"That person is very strange. His cultivation is very simple, but his combat power is shocking. I'm not his match. I wonder how many levels he can pass."

"Wang Lin… In these several decades, he has become very famous across the Southern Continent. It is said Grand Empyrean Dao Yi tried to recruit him but was rejected." A dozen pair of eyes followed Wang Lin as he disappeared into the palace.

The moment he entered the first palace, he felt like the world had changed before him. He saw that the inside of the palace was a star system!

This star system was vast and contained countless stars. Each star shined brightly, and he was standing in this star system.

A strange howl came from the star system. Wang Lin suddenly looked up and there was a flash of coldness in his eyes.

Report chapter

There were nine planets that seemed to have changed trajectories due to a mysterious force and were flying toward Wang Lin.

These nine planets looked like nine giants that instantly closed in on Wang Lin.

This sudden change forced Wang Lin to move from his current location. However, the nine planets changed directions and flew toward him.

"Could this be the first level of the Empyrean Trial?" Wang Lin's eyes lit up and he no longer dodged. He stepped forward toward the incoming planets, raised his right hand, and threw a punch at them!

"Call the Wind!" This punch contained nine Call the Wind spells. This punch formed a storm that made it look like a real black dragon was colliding with the first planet.

Thunderous rumbles echoed and the planet collapsed. After the planet collapsed, Wang Lin turned around and kicked the second planet.

There was a thunderous bang. Wang Lin's body moved and afterimages appeared before the rest of the planets, then he threw out several punches.

Thunderous rumbles echoed across the star system. All the planets smashing toward him shattered, but a powerful force came from them. The force directly pushed Wang Lin out of this star system.

Wang Lin's vision blurred. When he regained his vision, he lost control of his body and was pushed out from the first palace. He fell on the ground and retreated several thousand feet before he stabilized himself.

"Failed?" Wang Lin suddenly looked up and pondered.

The palace hadn't released golden light, which meant Wang Lin had failed the first level!

This was seen by all the surrounding Empyrean Exalt cultivators, and they were all surprised. The Empyrean Exalts that had fought Wang Lin were filled with disbelief.

"Can't even pass the first level… This person…"

"It's very rare for an Empyrean Exalt to not be able to pass the first level. Today, I get to see one."

"This shouldn't be happening. This Wang Lin's combat power is very strong. How could he fail on the first level?"

At this moment, Wang Lin was being stared at by all the surrounding Empyrean Exalts. There was surprise, contempt, and indifference in those stares.

Everyone here had been able to pass the first level really easily, so when they saw Wang Lin fail, it was inevitable to have some contempt. Even though they didn't show it, it was there.

Empyrean Exalt Zhu Lin looked at Wang Lin and then closed his eyes.

Wang Lin silently pondered as he looked at the black palace before him, then a flash of coldness appeared in his eyes. He turned into a ray of light and rushed at the palace.

His action was seen by most of the Empyrean Exalt cultivators, and most of them shook their heads.

"After a failure, it's rare to succeed the second time. Rather than wasting time here, it's better to leave and work hard cultivating."

"It looks like he is still relying on luck. Hehe, it's fine. Perhaps the first level can be passed through luck."

Wang Lin was very fast and instantly charged into the palace. His vision blurred and he appeared in the star system.

He was calm and wasn't flustered due to his failure at all. He stood there, calmly looking ahead with bright eyes. Howling sounds echoed and nine planets suddenly changed their trajectories as if they were being controlled by a pair of invisible, giant hands. The nine planets flew directly at Wang Lin.

Wang Lin didn't move and his divine sense spread out to surround the area. When the nine planets got within a few thousand feet of him and the pressure landed on his body, he suddenly raised his right hand. Nine Call the Wind sfused into his fist and he punched the void.

This punch caused the star system to tremble, and even the nine planets trembled. From afar, it looked like Wang Lin had disappeared and was replaced by a nine-headed black dragon. The nine heads of the black dragon smashed toward the nine planets.

Only one thunderous bang rang out, but it echoed endlessly. The nine planets suddenly collapsed at the same time.

When the nine planets collapsed, endless golden light spread out. This golden light filled the star system and spread out from the first palace.

The Empyrean Exalt cultivators sitting outside were attracted by the golden light, and they all had strange gazes. They saw a white-haired cultivator rush out from the top of the palace and head toward the second palace above at a high speed!

"He actually succeeded?"

"This White-Haired Empyrean Exalt is pretty interesting."

"The first time was a failure and the second time should be luck. However, luck won't help you with the second palace, only strength matters!"

The surrounding Empyrean Exalts were a bit interested by this matter when a bright, golden light came from the second palace!!

The golden light from the first palace hadn't even dissipated when the golden light came from the second palace. The intersecting golden lights from the two palaces almost lit up the entire continent!

This sudden scene shocked some of these cold and proud Empyrean Exalts.

"Eh?"

"He finished the second level that quickly?!"

"How long did that take? This person failed the first palace but actually passed the second palace in one try!"

Wang Lin's figure charged out from the second palace as the golden light shined brightly. He didn't hesitate to charge toward the third palace.

His actions immediately caught the attention of even more of the Empyrean Exalts. Most of them were at the third palace, and because Wang Lin had failed the first palace, they were uncertain if Wang Lin could pass it.

"In the third palace, in addition to fusing 27 spells into your body, there is a golden planet among them. The golden planet is the key!"

"I can fuse 30 spells into my body but still fail because of that golden planet. It is comparable to all the planets combined!"

"It will be difficult for him to break through the third level!"

More than half of the 200 Empyrean Exalts looked over. As they guessed the result, cries of shock came from a few of the cultivators.

Everyone saw the third palace shine brightly shortly after Wang Lin entered!!

Right now, the golden light from the first and second palaces hadn't dissipated yet. The golden light from the third palace shined and they connected. It was like a long dragon slowly growing its body.

The golden light was monstrous. While surrounding the area, it caused the eyes of the Empyrean Exalts below to shine brightly.

"Passed!"

"He passed three levels at once! With this much strength, how could he have failed on the first level?"

"What speed! To pass the first three levels at this speed means he is very strong!

"To continuously light up the palaces, I wonder how many more palaces he can light up!"

Wang Lin charged out from the third palace and looked up at the fourth palace. He didn't hesitate to rush toward the fourth palace before everyone's gazes.

"This Empyrean Trial required all the planets to be destroyed at once. If I destroy them one by one it counts as failure!" Wang Lin remained calm, the first three level were not much of a challenge for him.

In a flash, he disappeared into the fourth palace.

Even Empyrean Exalt Zhu Lin also opened his eyes and looked up at the fourth palace. Not just him, but almost everyone looked over.

The fourth palace was a threshold among the Empyrean Exalt cultivators. No more than 200 people had passed the fourth palace; most of them stopped there!

Therefore, Wang Lin's actions attracted their attention. Those that could pass the fourth level were considered strong among Empyrean Exalts!

Time slowly passed. One breath, two breaths...

As time passed, the golden light from the first place seemed to dim and showed signs of dissipating.

The amount of time Wang Lin spent inside the fourth palace was more than the third palace.

However, just as the golden light from the first palace was about to disappear, dozens of the surrounding cultivators suddenly stood up and looked at the sky. At this moment, the fourth palace released golden light that was far stronger than the lights of the previous three palaces!!

The moment the golden light appeared, it caused the four palaces to connect together perfectly. It looked like a small portion of a dragon's tail, making for a shocking sight!

"He broke through the fourth level!!"

"He actually passed the fourth level! He is strong even among Empyrean Exalts!"

Empyrean Exalt Zhu Lin's pupils shrank as he stared at the figure that walked out of the fourth palace. He felt threatened by that figure.

In the sky, Wang Lin stood in the golden light around the fourth palace and looked up at the fifth palace. His eyes lit up.

"The fourth level had 36 planets with two golden planets. I used all my avatars, and without the soul armor, the fourth level is my limit.

"But if I put the soul armor on… I wonder how many levels I can break through! Unfortunately, I need to head to the Mountain Sea to get the tree, so it would be inconvenient to show my strength here. After I get the Mountain Sea Tree, I'll come back and try it again!"

Chapter 1929 - Hai Zi

Wang Lin didn't immediately try to attempt the rest of the palaces, even though the fastest way to gain the attention of the Grand Empyreans was through the Empyrean Trail.

But right now, he still had another thing he needed to do. After pondering for a moment, as the golden light from the four palaces still filled the area, Wang Lin descend toward the ground before the gazes of the surrounding Empyrean Exalts.

Almost every cultivators' gaze fell on Wang Lin, just like Empyrean Exalt Zhu Lin before. Even Empyrean Exalt Zhu Lin's pupils shrank as he stared at Wang Lin.

From his view, Wang Lin was different from ordinary cultivators. Other cultivators would still try the next palace even if they knew they had no chance. Then they would know how difficult the next palace was and where their own shortcomings were to help with cultivation.

But after Wang Lin broke through fourth palace, he didn't even look at the fifth palace. Others might not have noticed this, but Empyrean Exalt Zhu Lin did, and he felt a sense of dread toward Wang Lin.

"Either he knows there is no chance in passing the fifth level, or he knows he can pass the fifth level without even looking… Whether it's the former or the latter… I hope it's the latter!" Empyrean Exalt Zhu Lin silently pondered and his eyes lit up.

When Wang Lin landed on the ground, several of the surrounding Empyrean Exalt cultivators smiled to congratulate him. Most of them were people Wang Lin had battled during the last 50 years, so they knew each other.

There were a few that hadn't met him but wanted to meet him.

Wang Lin smiled gently and clasped his hands back at them one by one.

"Fellow cultivators, I still have important matters to attend to, so I'll leave first. If there is time in the future, I'll come back!" Wang Lin turned into a ray of light and flew toward the transfer array he had appeared in. His body turned into fog and he disappeared.

Only after he disappeared did the surrounding Empyrean Exalts withdraw their gazes. Those that knew each other began to chat.

"This person obviously didn't try his best. Seeing how easily he passed the first four levels, I bet this White-Haired Empyrean Exalt can at least break through to the seventh level!"

"It shouldn't be, I fought with him 30 years ago. Four levels should be his limit!"

"It's hard to say. Although 30 years is a short period of time, with a bit of luck, there is a chance for us Empyrean Exalts to advance. Let's wait, he should come to the Empyrean Trial a second time."

Beside the Mountain Sea and inside a cave, Wang Lin suddenly opened his eyes. There was a flash of light from his eyes.

The moment he opened his eyes, the Golden Exalt sea dragon guarding him revealed a look of joy. It circled Wang Lin and let out intimate hisses.

Wang Lin raised his right hand and patted the sea dragon's head. He looked at the restrictions around him. He had deliberately left a time restriction so he could judge how long he was gone.

"Same as the time spent at the Empyrean Trial, there is no change." Wang Lin got up and walked forward. The sea dragon immediately followed.

One person and one dragon appeared outside the cave. At this moment, the moon was hanging high in the sky and soft moonlight was shining on the sea below. The rolling waves gave off a shimmer of silver.

The sounds of the waves echoed in Wang Lin's ears and the breeze of the sea landed on his body. His white hair fluttered in the wind and was extremely bright under the moonlight, as if it could reflect the moonlight.

Staring at the Mountain Sea, Wang Lin pondered a bit and then stepped onto its back. The sea dragon roared and flew toward the Mountain Sea.

Empyrean Exalt cultivators were only below Grand Empyreans and the 48 Ascendant Empyreans. They could go almost anywhere, and 99% of the sects were under their feet. They were at the top of the celestial clan!

Even those ancient souls could be battled while they were sealed! Just like right now, Wang Lin was going to the Mountain Sea Tree that was sealed here. Before he got the power of an Empyrean Exalt, it would've been impossible for him to do this.

Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi, who could integrate 70 spells into one finger, was living here.

But Wang Lin could come here!

The Golden Exalt sea dragon was very fast. It didn't stay in the air, but once it entered the Mountain Sea, it went into the sea. It was originally a sea dragon, so now it was like a fish back water and moved even faster.

It released a series of sharp howls that echoed through the silent night.

"The Heavenly Bull soul armor can't be used for a long time. Even now, it can only be used for less than half an hour. Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi is very strong, but with my soul armor and Rapid Spell Art, it's impossible for her to beat me!

"However, I can't beat her in a short period of time. Therefore I need to do this!" Wang Lin's eyes lit up and the sea dragon moved even faster toward the depths of the Mountain Sea.

The fluctuations it caused formed a giant vortex in the sea, and its roars echoed through the sea. Countless beasts were shaken by the sea dragon's might and all retreated. None of them dared to get close.

It didn't take long. As Wang Lin closed in on the center of the Mountain Sea, a monstrous wave suddenly appeared ahead. This wave rushed up into the sky, forming a wall of water that prevented the sea dragon from advancing.

The sea dragon revealed a ferocious expression and its giant head smashed into the wall of water. Thunderous rumbles echoed as the wall of water collapsed and the sea dragon charge out. The water exploded as if it was boiling.

Large tentacles covered in sticky liquid rapidly rose up from water. The tentacles crossed between each other and an island rose up from the sea.

It looked like an island, but if you looked closely, you would clearly see that it was a huge octopus beast. A Golden Exalt aura erupted from this octopus.

After the beast appeared, a beautiful woman standing on its head was exposed. She wore a green dress, and although her figure was covered by the dress, what could be seen would make anyone's heart throb. She held a green flute in her hand and her long hair was tied up behind her head. Her bright eyes revealed a breathtaking beauty.

There was a five-colored starfish on her pretty forehead. It was a dot that allowed her beauty to bloom in this world.

"Wang Lin, what are you doing here again? Although the Mountain Sea Tree Spirit is useless to me, I won't let you take it!" The woman frowned as she stared at Wang Lin, who was standing on the back of the sea dragon that had broken through the wall of water.

The sea dragon roared. It was not directed at the woman, but at the octopus below her. The octopus had a pair of gloomy eyes that also stared at the sea dragon.

It was obviously not the first time these overlords of the sea had met; they had fought before.

Wang Lin calmly stood on the back of the sea dragon and looked at the beautiful woman as he said, "That Mountain Sea Tree Spirit has great use for me. I don't need it all, just a part. It is useless to you and won't affect the Mountain Sea. Why are you making it difficult for me?

"Also, it doesn't belong to you, Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi. It was sealed by the Celestial Ancestor. Just because your cave is here, you think you can occupy this unique item to yourself!"

Wang Lin had seen this woman's beauty three years ago. Her beauty could be considered absolute. In Wang Lin's life, it was rare to see a woman who could match Mu Bingmei in beauty - she was the only one!

And this woman was an Empyrean Exalt, so she had a unique temperament.

The woman raised her chin as she coldly looked at Wang Lin and pointed at him. "I'm here, so everything in the Mountain Sea is mine! If you can beat me, then you can take it, but can you do it? You came just three years ago and you couldn't even take three blows from me. Now it has only been three years and you want to try again? Nonsense!"

With this, the world changed colors and the sea roared as 70 vortexes appeared between her and Wang Lin. Each of the vortexes contained one of her spells.

She started with her most powerful move. She obviously wanted to force Wang Lin back with just one move!

Wang Lin's expression was calm. The moment the woman raised her jade-like finger, there was a faint flash on his face. The Heavenly Bull tattoo he had long hidden appeared and soon covered his body.

The Heavenly Bull soul armor appeared once more after more than 50 years!

The moment the Heavenly Bull soul armor took form, Wang Lin's cultivation aura surged. He jumped off the sea dragon and looked at Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi, who was shocked by the appearance of the Heavenly Bull soul armor.

"Soul Messenger!" Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi's pupils shrank. She could tell that Wang Lin was holding back in their last battle, but she didn't expect him to be a Soul Messenger, who were even fewer number than Ascendant Empyreans!

"An Empyrean Exalt but also a soul messenger… However, even so, you can't beat me in a short period of time. All soul armors have a limit. I want to see how long you can least with the soul armor!" The beautiful woman immediately grasped the air and waved at the sky.

"I don't need to beat you, I just need you to stay!" Wang Lin's body moved and all five of his Spell Veins rotated rapidly. Suddenly, 97 afterimages of Wang Lin appeared!

Along with his original body, it was a total of 98 bodies!

Every single afterimage was exactly the same as the original body and very realistic.

"Stop!"

"Stop!!"

"Stop!!!"

The 97 afterimages and the original body all used the same spell, the Stop spell!!

The moment this spell appeared, the world changed changed colors. The 98 Wang Lins the sky extended their right hands and pointed at the beautiful woman below!

With this point, the 97 afterimages fused with Wang Lin's body and a giant shadow appeared in the world. This shadow was a finger that seemed like it could support the heavens and earth!!

The finger appeared and pointed at Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi!!

50 years ago, Wang Lin put on the soul armor and attacked with 98 spells at once. He crushed the Devil Dao Sect's old ancestor and forced him to use the life-saving dao robe Grand Empyrean Dao Yi had given him.

Even Grand Empyrean Dao Yi's divine sense had to appear to remove Wang Lin's heaven-shattering blow!

Today, Wang Lin had challenged people to battle for the last 50 years and had gained full control over his power. Even without the soul armor, he could beat many Empyrean Exalts. Even if it was the Devil Dao Sect's old ancestor, Wang Lin could win without wearing the soul armor!

He was already very strong and was completely different from 50 years ago. Now, after putting on the soul armor and using the Rapid Spell Art to fuse 98 spells into one, his power was far stronger than before!

Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi's expression suddenly changed and her face was filled with disbelief. This was the first time she had seen Wang Lin use his full power, and those 98 spells caused her heart to tremble!

As his finger pointed, everything in the world seemed to stop. The sea breeze stopped, the waves quieted, and the movement of the world paused.

This force could make everything stop, and it descended on Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi. When the force descended on her, even her right hand stopped and her origin soul stopped moving!!

98 Stop spells!

Wang Lin's face was pale. This point contained his full power. After 98 Stop spells appeared, it went through some hidden change Wang Lin couldn't explain. It was very similar to how the world froze when Grand Empyrean Dao Yi appeared.

"There is no hatred between us, I don't want to kill you!" Wang Lin looked at the frozen Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi and then disappeared into the sea.

Back then, his 98 spells couldn't truly fuse into one like an Empyrean Exalt's, and in the end, it was like an army with soldiers but no generals. That's why a Grand Empyrean could destroy it with just one punch.

However, right now, without his avatars, he could fuse nine spells into his body. Then, due to the mysterious compression power of his avatars, he could fuse 36 spells, so it was far more powerful than before!

Before, it was a group of scattered soldiers, but now there was general. Although the general wasn't powerful, the power of the spells had increased greatly!

After stopping Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi, Wang Lin knew it wouldn't last long. He moved very fast as he charged for the bottom of the sea.

Time slowly passed. At the fourth breath, Wang Lin arrived at the deepest part of the sea. The pressure here was enough to crush the body of ordinary cultivators, but it was no problem for Wang Lin's Ancient Dao body.

Wang Lin suddenly threw a punch at the sea floor. This punch caused the sea to rage ad 98 vortexes appeared before Wang Lin and charged at the sea floor.

As the thunderous rumbles echoed, the sea floor collapsed and a giant hole appeared. Large amounts of water rushed into it, making the hole look like a black hole.

Wang Lin didn't hesitate. He had searched the Mountain Sea during the last three years. He knew how to find the Mountain Sea Tree that was supporting the Mountain Sea!

He rushed into the black hole and disappeared without a trace.

At this moment, it was the sixth breath! The octopus was also in the range of the Stop spell, so it was motionless. The beautiful woman maintained her previous movement; not even her eyelids could close.

The sea dragon was on the side with pride in its eyes. It roared at the octopus in a language only sea beasts like them could understand.

Time passed. At the eighth breath, Wang Lin appeared at the bottom of the Mountain Sea. In this world inside the black hole, there was an extremely large tree!

This tree was half the Mountain Sea, and one could not see where it ended at a glance. The trunk was withered, but the branches grew out to support the Mountain Sea.

In contrast, Wang Lin was so small, he could not be seen. The tree was filled with death aura and layers of seals. In addition, it contained a powerful killing intent, as if this tree had once killed countless beings!

Outside the vast, withered trunk, there was a total of seven clusters of green light around the tree. Each one was only fist-sized and seemed disproportionate to the giant tree.

These green clusters were what Wang Lin wanted. These were the Mountain Sea Tree Spirits born after the death of the Mountain Sea Tree. These spirits could help a cultivator gain the wood essence.

The Mountain Sea Tree originally had a lot of these spirits, but after it died, many had been taken away. Now only these seven remained!

These Mountain Sea Tree Spirits were not inside the seal, but floated outside for some reason. It seemed the seal had no effect on these spirits.

Now ten breaths had passed.

Without hesitation, Wang Lin moved next to the Mountain Sea Tree and waved his hand. Six of the seven Mountain Sea Tree spirit were taken by him and then he turned to leave.

Just as he turned around, Wang Lin suddenly felt a stab of pain in his eyes and the golden light in his eyes shined out of his control. This sudden change caused Wang Lin to stop.

The stabbing pain in his eyes also contained a sense of calling. It was as if there was something in the Mountain Sea Tree calling Wang Lin's eyes!

Wang Lin's eyes contained a fragment of the Celestial Ancestor's sword. This allowed his eyes to contain the suppression power of the sword.

He suddenly turned. As the golden light shined from his eyes, he saw a ray of golden light shoot toward him.

All of this happened in a flash. When Wang Lin noticed the golden light, he noticed that there was palm-sized, golden fragment in the Mountain Sea Tree!

"A fragment of the Celestial Ancestor's sword!" Wang Lin's eyes narrowed.

The palm-sized golden fragment from the Mountain Sea Tree flew toward Wang Lin. Instead of it calling Wang Lin, it was more like Wang Lin was calling it.

However, the seal around the Mountain Sea Tree shined brightly as the fragment tried to leave. Ripples echoed, and in the end, half the fragment pierced out from the seal. The rest of the fragment was still inside the seal and could not fly out.

The moment half of it was outside, Wang Lin's eyes shined even more brightly. It was as if a similar fragment in his eyes was about to rush out.

"How can the Mountain Sea Tree have a fragment of the Celestial Ancestor's sword?!" In the last 50 years, Wang Lin had deliberately searched for the items that the old man from the Green Scorpion Temple had injected into his body. After all, if he wanted to master his body, he had to understand the origin of these items.

Rumor had it that the Celestial Ancestor's sword was shattered in the battle against the Green Devil Scorpion by the scorpion's tail. However, Wang Lin had heard no less than 10 of these legends!

Almost every continent had a legend stating that the soul sealed in that continent had caused the sword to shatter. Wang Lin had no way to tell which was true and which was false.

There was even a legend saying that the sword had shattered by itself after the Celestial Ancestor disappeared. The fragments scattered across the various continents.

These thoughts flashed through Wang Lin's mind and he hesitated.

"This seal was placed by the Celestial Ancestor. To take this fragment… It is likely to trigger the power of this seal!"

From the beginning to now, 15 breaths had passed. Wang Lin decisively backed up a few steps and didn't move with his original body. Instead, his thunder essence true body flew out toward the sword fragment. He charged at it and directly grabbed the fragment!

"The Green Devil Temple also had a seal, but it wasn't a big problem. However, this seal is somewhat different… However, riches are found in danger, so I'm unwilling to just leave like this!" The thunder essence true body reached out and grabbed the sword fragment.

The moment his right hand grabbed the sword fragment, the sealing force from the Mountain Sea Tree erupted!!

Ripples appeared where the sword fragment was. The ripples formed a huge face filled with majesty and a suppression force closed in on Wang Lin's thunder essence true body.

"Discovered non-Immortal Astral Continent soul, seal!" An ancient voice echoed under the sea.

"There is indeed a problem!" Wang Lin's eyes lit up.

"Discovered non-Immortal Astral Continent soul, seal!" This ancient voice suddenly echoed in Wang Lin's heart. This voice seemed to come from countless years ago. It was ancient and echoed between the layers of seals.

Without hesitation, Wang Lin's original body stepped back as the voice echoed. As he retreated, his five-element true body rushed toward the thunder essence true body. At the same time, the giant face that appeared from the layers of seal attempted to devour the thunder essence true body.

The moment the face appeared, a powerful suction force appeared around the golden sword fragment as if the seal was preventing the fragment from leaving.

At this moment, if Wang Lin's thunder essence true body let go and retreated, he could escape the devouring face. But if he didn't, then there would be danger!

There was a flash of coldness in Wang Lin's eyes. Without hesitation, thunderous rumbles echoed from his thunder essence true body and thunder scattered. This thunder contained killing intent - it was the slaughter thunder!!

The thunder scattered and the rumbles echoed under the sea. The scattered thunder condensed to form a huge thunder arm that pressed down toward the devouring face!

The face was already too blurry to see any details. The thunder palm with slaughter thunder pressed down on its face and a thunderous rumble echoed.

The face revealed a painful expression. Borrowing this pause, Wang Lin's thunder essence true body pulled the sword fragment. Working against the powerful suction force, the sword fragment that was stuck in the face was pulled out an inch!

However, one inch seemed to be the limit. As the thunder essence true body pulled, Wang Lin's five-element true body moved forward and pulled the thunder essence true body.

The thunder essence true body was like bridge for the powerful forced from the five-element true body. Thunderous rumbles echoed and the sword fragment was pulled out another inch!!

Now most of the sword fragment had been pulled out and only one inch remained inside the seal!

Wang Lin's original body closed in and threw a punch at the face being held back by the thunder palm. An Ancient Dao shadow appeared and threw a punch as well.

Thunderous rumbles echoed, causing the surrounding sea to churn. The water above formed a powerful vortex, and the punch fused with the thunder palm to hold off the face. Wang Lin grabbed the five-element true body and pulled!

His original body's power entered the five-element true body, and after fusing with the power of the five-element true body, the force went into the thunder essence true body. The thunder essence true body pulled the sword fragment and it came out of the face with a bang!!

After the fragment was pulled out, a powerful force smashed into Wang Lin's two essence true bodies. The two essence true bodies crashed into Wang Lin and he was pushed back.

However, the powerful force didn't scatter - it smashed into Wang Lin's body. His body trembled and blood flowed out from the corner of his mouth. With his Empyrean Exalt cultivation and Ancient Dao body, he was still injured. This just showed how powerful the sea was!

However, this was far from over. As Wang Lin was injured and pushed back by the force, the thunder palm holding back the face suddenly collapsed and the thunder scattered.

This palm didn't contain much slaughter thunder because if Wang Lin's avatar used too much of it, it would collapse before it could be used. After all, this slaughter thunder contained power even Wang Lin feared.

At this moment, the palm collapsed, but the slaughter thunder only scattered and wasn't damaged at all. It returned to Wang Lin's body.

Without the palm holding it back, the face roared and charged at Wang Lin. It looked like it wouldn't give up until it devoured Wang Lin, who was a non-Immortal Astral Continent cultivator!

It was less than 100 feet from Wang Lin in a flash. No matter how much he retreated, the face covered in layers of restrictions chased closely after him!!

If one looked at this from another angle, they would see that as Wang Lin retreated, there seemed to be an extending neck coming from the Mountain Sea Tree. The neck connected the face and the seal, and it had extended more than 1,000 feet. It continued to rapidly extend as the face chased Wang Lin.

From afar, the face and neck looked like a giant python!!

"Discovered non-Immortal Astral Continent soul, seal!" As it chased, the ancient voice echoed once more. It was as if it was filled with a will and a mission. It was filled with an indescribable sense of strangeness.

Wang Lin's eyes were bloodshot. Ever since he obtained the battle power of an Empyrean Exalt, he had never encountered such danger in more than 50 years. However, he didn't have too much time. Riches had to be obtained in danger, and since he had made the decision, he wouldn't regret it!

While retreating, Wang Lin raised his right hand. He formed a fist and 97 afterimages appeared around him!

These 97 afterimages all formed seals and their palms pressed toward the sky.

"God Tremble, Army Formation!

"Demon Spell, Wind and Fire Mountain!

"Devil Dao, Life and Death Reverse!

"God, Demon, Devil, Ancient Dao, No Celestials!" Every single shadow said these four lines and threw a punch. The 97 afterimages returned to Wang Lin's body and the punch was thrown. Grey ripples spread out toward the devouring face.

This was Wang Lin using his full power with the soul armor and holding nothing back! After more than 50 years of challenging people, he hadn't used this move once, but now, facing the seal, he released this attack!

The grey ripples collided with the giant face. Cracking sounds echoed like crazy and the face began to petrify rapidly 30 feet away from Wang Lin. Not only the face, but even the thing that was like a neck connected to the seal began to petrify.

However, all of this was only temporary. Before it completely petrified and the grey color was still spreading, the part of the face that had been petrified first loosened. It showed signs of recovering!

"Even Ancient Dao, No Celestial can't completely destroy it. The sealed face is still rapidly recovering. It will only take a few breaths before it fully recovers!" Wang Lin's pupils shrank. If he chose to retreat at this moment, he was 80% confident in escaping through the hole he had blasted and return to the Mountain Sea. He could even directly fly out of the sea!

But Wang Lin was unwilling to just leave! There was a flash of coldness in his eyes. The seal had injured him. Although he was 80% confident in escaping, there was still a 20% chance something would go wrong. Once that happened, and adding the fact that Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi would recover, he could be at a big disadvantage due to being attacked from both sides!

Wang Lin would not gamble this kind of thing, he would rather take control of his own fate!

"I can't retreat!" Wang Lin's eyes shined brightly. Instead of retreating, he stepped forward and appeared before the face. The layer of the stone on the face shattered and it was about to break free. The neck on the face twisted and was going to devour Wang Lin.

However, a majority of its neck had been petrified. Although it was recovering, it still needed several breaths to turn its head.

Wang Lin let out a roar. As the head was about to turn around, he raised his right hand. He felt a sharp pain as the Yin Blade grew 30 feet out from his right hand!

The moment the Yin Blade appeared, the surrounding sea water froze!

"Die!!" Borrowing the power of the soul armor, Wang Lin roared and the 97 afterimages appeared once more. All 97 afterimages had red eyes and raised their Yin Blades.

The moment the blade sliced down, the 97 afterimages formed 97 strikes that all fused back into Wang Lin! From a distance, a total of 98 blades seemed to connect together, forming a fan shape as they descended on the neck that connected the face to the seal.

Thunderous rumbles echoed across the entire Mountain Sea. The neck connecting the face showed signs of collapsing. The rest of the blades followed and a shocking rumble echoed!

The neck connecting the face was cut in half by the blade!

The violent trembled from the bottom, causing the entire sea to rumble and forming a vortex. The sea dragon twisted its body, made provocative movements, and roared toward the octopus in some language only they could understand.

It was unknown if the octopus could hear it or not, but from its wide eyes and the hidden sense of anger and madness, it seemed like it could hear it.

However, the vibrations coming from the bottom of the sea shocked the sea dragon for a moment. It suddenly felt great danger and quickly escaped without hesitation.

After it left, Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi's body trembled and her eyes revealed a flash of coldness!

"Wang Lin!!!" Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi recovered!

The moment Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi recovered, Wang Lin cut off the neck connecting the face to the seal inside the black hole at the bottom of the Mountain Sea.

The moment the blade cut down, the face let out a roar and completely turned around. However, it collapsed layer by layer before Wang Lin. It turned to dust and disappeared into the sea.

Blood dropped from where the Yin Blade esd connected to Wang Lin's right arm. Intense pain spread as it disappeared back into his right arm.

Wang Lin had erupted his full power using that blade. The Yin Blade in his right arm felt like it was going to collapse from the rebound force.

"Want to seal me?" Wang Lin was breathing roughly. His cultivation level was very high, so he could still breathe like normal even in water. As he exhaled, bubbles rose up, but no water went in. Instead, the breathable air inside the water was inhaled through his mouth.

Wang Lin looked back at the layers of seals on the Mountain Sea Tree. The seal on the tree was not broken by the blade. Ripples echoed and it returned to normal.

Wang Lin's eyes lit up. He didn't immediately leave but checked his injuries and the time left on his soul armor. Due to him displaying his full power, the amount of time left was reduced greatly - he only had half an incense stick of time left.

"It's enough!" Wang Lin smoothed his breathing and charged upward. He was very fast and appeared next to the black hole. He left the true depths of the sea and entered the Mountain Sea.

Just as he came out of the black hole, the sea dragon quickly arrived. It let out a roar and its eyes were filled with joy. Wang Lin nodded and they flew up together.

He already noticed that the Stop spell on Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi had lost its effect.

Just as Wang Lin rose rapidly, an angry voice echoed above the sea.

"Wang Lin!!!" As the voice echoed, the blue sea turned black. The water before Wang Lin immediately turned black like ink. Large tentacles swayed, causing vortexes to fly toward Wang Lin.

"Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi, you are no longer my opponent. There is no hatred between us and the Mountain Sea Tree Spirit doesn't belong to you. If you continue this, don't blame me for being merciless!" Wang Lin remained calm and controlled the sea dragon to avoid the black sea water as they charged for the surface.

"This entire Mountain Sea is my cave, so how could I let you come and go as you wish?! Mountain Sea Formation!" Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi's name was Yi Ting. However, because she lived in the Mountain Sea year-round and became an Empyrean Exalt here, she was called Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi like how Wang Lin was the White-Haired Empyrean Exalt!

After she spoke, the surrounding seawater turned black. A layer of dried ink seemed to form above the top of the water.

This layer of dried ink was very strong and sealed almost the entire Mountain Sea. If one looked from above, the Mountain Sea had become black earth!

Inside the sea water, Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi suddenly appeared. The octopus rushed out with a roar and charged at the sea dragon under Wang Lin.

It hated the sea dragon to the bone. As it rushed out, ripples echoed across the sea. The sea dragon revealed a ferocious gaze and also roared. It charged out and began battling the octopus.

The battle between the two sea beasts caused thunderous rumbles to echo and violent shockwaves to spread throughout the sea.

At the same time, the beautiful Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi watched Wang Lin walk forward. She didn't really hate Wang Lin; on the contrary, three years ago, she only had a slight impression of Wang Lin. There was no fluctuation in her heart, it was as if she had accidentally seen a stranger.

After Wang Lin failed that battle, Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi had forgotten about him. However, now it was very different. Wang Lin had reappeared three years later and stopped her for more than ten breaths with one point!!

That was simply unacceptable to her, and she was extremely annoyed! It has to be said that although she was an Empyrean Exalt, she was also a female cultivator. As a woman, being stopped there without any resistance made her embarrassed and angry!

Although the Mountain Sea Tree could condense wood essence, it was not useful to her. In her original plan, if Wang Lin was willing to be more modest and had asked her, she was willing to give Wang Lin some, as a fellow Empyrean Exalt.

However, whether it was three years ago or three years later, Wang Lin was still as indifferent. This made the beautiful Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi annoyed, so she had purposely made it difficult for him.

She had a powerful cultivation and a noble identity, so aside from the few Ascendant Empyreans, ordinary cultivators were not worthy of her time. It was because of this noble status that she could occupy the entire Mountain Sea and no one would dare to cause any trouble.

However, she could not have expected to be stopped there for more than 10 breaths!

Facing the arrival of Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi, Wang Lin frowned. His soul armor was limited and he didn't want to waste time with her. However, if the woman was persistent, he wouldn't mind seriously injuring her in the quickest way possible!

At this moment, he let out a cold snort. As Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi closed in, Wang Lin stepped forward. With that step, 97 afterimages appeared and charged toward Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi.

As she closed in, Wang Lin suddenly raised his right hand and waved at Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi!

The moment he raised his palm, the 97 afterimages also raised their right hands. 98 War Spirit Prints fused into one and flew toward Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi.

Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi clenched her teeth and waved her jade-like hand. Blue light shined and a giant bell appeared. The bell expanded and released a sharp ring. A blue bird appeared from within the bell and its wings flapped 70 times. 70 spells suddenly appeared and flew toward Wang Lin's War Spirit Print.

When the blue bird flew out, Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi raised her jade-like hand and pointed forward.

"My life follows fate, first dao!" Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi pointed and an oval seal appeared before her. This oval was made from 70 strokes and contained 70 of her spells!

"Can't defy the heavens, second dao!" Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi clenched her teeth and her beautiful face turned somewhat pale. As she raised her right hand, blood flowed out from the corner of her mouth. It seemed this spell was extremely difficult for her to use!

After she spoke, the oval seal containing 70 spells suddenly swelled. 26 strokes split and doubled, turning the 70 spells fusion into 96!

These 96 strokes were the same as 96 spells fused together. The oval seal contained a shocking aura as it flew toward Wang Lin.

Wang Lin's War Spirit Print collided with the blue bird. A thunderous rumble echoed as the blue bird collapsed and turned back into the bell. The rest of the War Spirit Print flew forward, but the moment it touched the seal, they silently disintegrated!

"What kind of spell is this?" Wang Lin's pupils, the oval seal gave him a great sense of danger. Without hesitation, Wang Lin raised his hands to his head and bend his body back. 97 afterimages appeared, and it looked like he was about to headbutt someone!

"Heavenly Bull Charge!!"

The Heavenly Bull spell that terrified the Devil Dao Sect's old ancestor appeared once more. Wang Lins 97 afterimages moved together and a huge Heavenly Bull shadow appeared. It contained 98 spells as it charged at the oval seal.

Wang Lin and Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi battled above the frozen see sea. Deep under the sea was the black hole Wang Lin had blasted open, and that was where the Mountain Sea Tree was.

At this moment, a very strange change was rapidly forming.

Beside the Mountain Sea Tree, outside the layers of seals, ghostly lights had appeared where Wang Lin had destroyed the face. These lights contained a crazed sense of ferocity and bloodthirst. They also contained a shockingly terrifying aura.

However, this aura was very strange and didn't spread out a single bit. It wasn't noticed by Wang Lin or Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi, who were battling outside.

As thunderous rumbles echoed, even more ghostly specks appeared. There were no less than 100,000 specks, and they fused together in a short period of time.

They didn't form the face from before, but a broken palm!!

Only a palm without the arm, so it was called a broken palm!

This broken palm was originally very large, thousands of feet tall. However, after it appeared, it shrank until it was the side of an ordinary person's palm. It's color was almost transparent, so unless you looked carefully, it would be difficult to see.

In the center of the palm, there seemed to be a blurry mark.

"Discovered non-Immortal Astral Soul, seal!!" A vague voice came from the broken palm. The sea rippled as the broken palm flew straight up!

At this moment, Wang Lin was battling against Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi. Neither noticed the appearance and arrival of this broken palm!

Most of the Mountain Sea's surface was sealed by dark black ink. This black ink was very strong, it was formed by Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi's formation and can't be easily broken.

Inside the sea, Wang Lin and Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi were in a fierce battle!

Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi used the strange spell and coughed out blood as the price to create the seal containing 96 spells, and the oval seal flew toward Wang Lin.

Although Wang Lin was shocked, he resisted with the Heavenly Bull charge. The giant Heavenly Bull shadow collided with the oval seal.

As they collided, thunderous rumbles echoed through the sea as if the sea was going to be split apart.

Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi's face was pale and she was knocked back. This was a spell her teacher had taught her, and it was extremely powerful. Although she couldn't control the second style yet, it made it so very few people below Ascendant Empyrean were her match!

However, now she had met Wang Lin!!

Wang Lin also retreated, and his breathing was rough. When the Heavenly Bull collapsed, the soul armor on his body also showed signs of dissipating.

The moment he retreated, Wang Lin's eyes lit up. He raised his right hand and 97 afterimages appeared. He fiercely pointed at the retreating Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi!!

"Stop!"

"Stop!!"

"Stop!!!" Wang Lin used the Stop spell a second time before Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi. The 97 afterimages fused, and the finger that made her feel terror, anger, and shame descended on her!!

"Wang Lin, you…" Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi didn't get to finish speaking. Due to her injury, she was completely stopped. Due to her origin soul being stopped and her no longer having the octopus holding her up, she began to sink to the bottom of the sea.

However, since she dared to stop Wang Lin, she had come prepared. Although the preparation was a bit hasty and she had been caught off guard by Wang Lin's masterful timing, only her origin soul was stopped. Her eyes and thoughts were still operating as normal.

She stared at Wang Lin, who was moving farther and farther away, and she felt shame and anger. If not for the fact that her mouth couldn't move, she'd be clenching her teeth.

There were two reasons Wang Lin hadn't immediately used the Stop spell. The first was because since she dared to try to stop him, she must have been prepared and had a certain degree of confidence in resisting his Stop spell!

Therefore, he couldn't use it immediately and had to wait for the right time to set it up!

Second, even though Wang Lin had stopped Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi, unless he seriously injured her and immediately escaped, she would chase after him once she was free.

In contrast, rather than stopping her and seriously injuring her, it was better to seriously injure her then stop her. Then she wouldn't dare to follow, and it would be the righteous path!

After stopping Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi, Wang Lin was about to kick away the octopus and take the sea dragon away. His divine sense subconsciously swept Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi, who was sinking into the water.

However, this startled him.

The place where he was battling Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi was not far from the sea floor. She was sinking not far away from the black hole.

Wang Lin's divine sense vaguely saw blurry ripples and something rushing out from the black hole toward Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi, who had lost her power to resist!

There seemed to be something strange in the ripples, but it could not be clearly seen by the naked eye.

"Discovered non-Immortal Astral Continent soul, seal!" A vague divine sense spread out through the sea water into Wang Lin's mind and caused his expression to change greatly!!

"It's not dead!!"

Wang Lin felt his scalp tingle. He was far too aware of how powerful the face was. He was about to leave, but he stopped once more.

Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi's origin soul was stopped, but her eyes and thoughts were still moving. She clearly saw the fluctuations in the sea water and a vague shadow rapidly closing in on her.

An indescribable sense of danger appeared in her heart. This danger was far stronger than her battle with Wang Lin. In fact, she had never encountered something that made her feel this level of danger before in her life!

Her eyes widened. She could not move and did not have the power to resist. She could only watch the shadow coming from the ripples giving off a terrifying aura and charging right at her!

The strong Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi revealed fear and weakness she had never shown before. Her body trembled as she tried to break free from the Stop spell!

This feeling of life or death made her feel like she was not an Empyrean Exalt but a weak woman. Facing this terrifying thing, despair appeared in her eyes!

The ripples in the sea water were the broken palm that had extended out from the black hole. It seemed to have gone crazy, and it didn't matter who it encountered - it would send out the message of "Discovered non-Immortal Astral Continent soul, seal!"

At this moment, if Wang Lin wanted to escape, he could ignore Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi. If he escaped fast, he could escape with Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi as bait.

But after a moment of struggle, he turned around and charged toward Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi below!

"For my entire life, I was not a villain or a gentleman. I have always just asked if I could live with my decisions. There is no hatred between Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi and I. This is her cave, and it is normal to guard it!" Wang Lin was very fast and instantly moved 10,000 feet.

"The Mountain Sea seal appeared because of me, and at this moment, she is being stopped by me. If I run now and abandon her, I will be making a decision that's not worthy in my heart!

"If I can't stick to my ways, what right do I have to defy the heavens and resurrect Wang Er? What faith would I have to step onto the peak!? Maybe others can do it, but I, Wang Lin, can't!" Wang Lin's eyes revealed determination. He charged toward Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi!!

His action was seen by Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi, who was in despair and startled.

Wang Lin moved very fast and came within 400 feet of Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi, but no matter how fast he was, he was not faster than the broken palm. It was now less than 300 feet from Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi!!

The broken palm carried ferociousness, bloodthirst, and an unspeakable sense of madness as it opened its five fingers toward Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi.

Wang Lin could use the Stop spell, but he couldn't dispel it unless the target's cultivation level was much lower. Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi was an Empyrean Exalt, so her cultivation level was actually a lot higher than Wang Lin's. Therefore, he could not break it in a short period of time.

The Mountain Sea had been sealed by her, so it was impossible to teleport here. The broken palm was about to devour Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi. Despair filled her eyes as Wang Lin let out a roar and the five Spell Veins in his body erupted. They rotated at a crazed speed and Wang Lin moved faster than he had ever moved before!!

This speed was due to the the Rapid Spell Art operating at full power. As Wang Lin moved forward, 97 afterimages appeared, followed by a 98th afterimage!!

98 afterimages, along with the original body, made 99!!

Borrowing the power of the extra afterimage from the full power of the Rapid Spell Art, Wang Lin's speed increased. When the broken palm was less than three feet from Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi and a ferocious aura closed in on her, a powerful force was injected between the broken palm and Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi. Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi was quickly knocked away.

Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi saw Wang Lin's figure as she was knocked away.

Her body trembled, and at this moment, she suddenly recovered her movement.

The moment she recovered, Wang Lin's right hand turned into the Yin Blade and chopped down on the broken palm.

The broken palm discarded Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi as the target and reached toward Wang Lin.

"Discovered non-Immortal Astral Continent soul, seal!" The vague divine sense echoed in Wang Lin's mind as it collided with his Yin Blade.

As the thunderous rumble echoed, Wang Lin was knocked back and blood flowed from the corner of his mouth. However, a gentle body held him. It was Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi. She bit her lower lip and quickly pulled Wang Lin toward the surface of the sea.

The broken palm had been cut in half by the Yin Blade, but it didn't dissipate. It rapidly recovered back into the broken palm and chased after the two of them.

Ripples echoed in the sea and the broken palm started moving several times faster than before. It instantly caught up, giving Wang Lin and Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi no time to dodge at all. Wang Lin raised his left hand and threw a punch.

When he punched, 98 afterimages appeared around him and it condensed into one fist. The punch shot toward the palm like a bolt of thunder.

At the same time, Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi waved her hand and used the oval seal that contained 90 spells by force. It rushed toward the broken palm after Wang Lin's punch.

Thunderous rumbles echoed and caused the sea to surge. The ripples echoed as the broken palm collapsed. But it turned into countless specks of ghostly light and instantly entered Wang Lin's left hand!

This broken palm was also a left palm!

As the countless specks of ghostly light entered Wang Lin's left hand, an intense wave of pain that caused Wang Lin's face to go pale came from his left hand. This pain made Wang Lin's body tremble violently. As large amounts of specks of ghostly light gathered, something that looked like a black glove appeared over Wang Lin's left hand!!

His left hand was completely black, and the glove began to spread up toward his arms.

This shocking scene caused shock to appear in Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi's eyes. Wang Lin's face was pale and he revealed a vicious gaze. His left hand was filled with intense pain and he lost all other perception, as if that no longer belonged to him. He had a feeling that as it spread, the body parts it would spread to would no longer belong to him!

As the countless specks of ghostly light gathered to form the glove on his left hand, a feeling of extreme disgust appeared in his mind. It was like how fire and water couldn't mix; this feeling was extremely clear!!

Without any hesitation, there was a flash of coldness in Wang Lin's eyes and he raised the Yin Blade in his right hand. He chopped down and cut off his left hand. The flesh of the left hand quickly melted until only the skin remained. The skin fused with the sea and rushed toward Wang Lin again.

"Discovered non-Immortal Astral Continent soul, seal!"

Wang Lin's decisive action had given Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi time. She raised her pale, jade hand and took out a jade. She crushed it and a layer of dark blue light wrapped around her and Wang Lin. As it spread, it reached 100,000 feet and protected the sea dragon and octopus that had retreated. Then the light curtain shank into the sea with Wang Lin, Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi, and the frightened sea dragon and octopus.

Soon, the light curtain landed at the bottom of the sea. The water outside was black due to the ink from before, so nothing could be seen. Only the sound of something banging against it could be heard, but the light curtain only trembled but didn't collapse.

The broken palm continued to attack the light curtain but could not break it in a short period of time. However, the banging sounds became even more violent.

The light curtain formed a half-circle on the seafloor, and aside from the banging sound, it was dead silent!

Wang Lin's expression was gloomy as he sat on the side with his eyes closed. The sea dragon circled around Wang Lin and stared at the octopus not far away, next to Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi. Its gaze was hostile, but it also looked at the light curtain with fear in its eyes.

The octopus was also staring at the sea dragon angrily, as if the two beasts could not get along.

Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi was 1,000 feet away from Wang Lin. Her beautiful face was pale and her hair was scattered. She was looking at Wang Lin with a complicated expression, and the scene of Wang Lin blocking the palm for her appeared in her mind.

"You… Are you okay… I crushed the life-saving jade Teacher give me. Teacher should be aware and should come soon. I still have a bottle of pills here. Your… Your palm…" As Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi spoke, she waved her hand and a jade bottle appeared. There was an ancient "Di" on the bottle that gave off waves of pressure.

Holding the bottle, Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi walked up to Wang Lin. She crushed a pill and was about to smear it on Wang Lin's severed left hand. Just at his moment, Wang Lin opened his eyes.

"No need!" Wang Lin coldly said, then he retreated 1,000 feet. A burst of blood light came from his left arm that had lost its palm. His left hand began to regrow. This was the powerful recovery of his physical body!

Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi was startled for a moment and was about to speak when her expression suddenly changed. She looked up at the light curtain and revealed a look of disbelief. Wang Lin also stared at the light curtain.

A drastic change occured!

Outside the light curtain, the broken palm that was bombarding the light curtain suddenly stuck to the light curtain. From afar, this broken palm looked like a starfish.

Sticking so closely to the light curtain caused the strange mark at the center of the palm to be displayed clearly before Wang Lin and Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi.

However, just this was not enough to cause their expressions to change. What shocked them was that the palm instantly expanded. In the blink of an eye, the palm expanded to 1,000 feet, 10,000 feet!!

The broken arm rapidly grew, and in the blink of an eye, it was 100,000 feet long and shrouded the semi-circle light curtain!

After the broken palm expanded to the point of engulfing the light curtain, the light curtain trembled violently. Ripples echoed and the light curtain became completely dark, without a speck of light.

Even so, as long as Wang Lin and Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi gathered their cultivation in their eyes, they could see everything clearly. Wang Lin silently pondered and noticed that his hair was slightly floating due to wind.

Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi's eyes lit up and she slowly said, "It devoured my protective light curtain and is moving rapidly!"

"What exactly is it?" Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi looked at Wang Lin.

Wang Lin was 1,000 feet away and was staring at his newly grown left hand. After pondering for a bit, he spoke.

"The Mountain Sea Tree's seal!"

Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi's face turned pale and she bitterly smiled, but she didn't speak. She sat down and looked around in the dark. It was unknown what she was thinking.

Time slowly passed. Soon, Wang Lin's soul armor dissipated. After the soul armor disappeared, a deep sense of fatigue filled Wang Lin's heart.

Wang Lin let out a sigh as he looked up and said, "I fear your teacher won't find this place in a short period of time. The broken palm devoured the protective light curtain and should block all external contacts, like a seal."

"You could have just taken the Mountain Sea Tree Spirits, why did you provoke the Mountain Sea Tree Seal? This seal was placed by the Celestial Ancestor, you…" After a long time, Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi looked at Wang Lin with a complicated gaze.

Wang Lin looked at Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi and slowly said, "If I didn't have to save you, I would have already left the Mountain Sea."

Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi silently pondered.

Time quickly passed in this silence. In the blink of an eye, three days went by.

During these three days, the two still didn't talk. Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi looked up at the light curtain, and her eyes were filled with uncertainty. As for Wang Lin, he had closed his eyes to cultivate. He took out the Mountain Sea Tree Spirits and began to absorb them.

Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi was silent for three days, and after seeing Wang Lin absorb the Mountain Sea Tree Spirits, she couldn't help but ask, "Your cultivation is very strange. You are clearly at the early stage of Void Tribulant, but you have the power of an Empyrean Exalt. Although the Mountain Sea Tree Spirit can help a cultivator form a wood essence, at Void Tribulant, even a few essences won't help your cultivation level increase. What's the point?"

Wang Lin didn't explain too much. He opened his eyes and glanced at Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi as he calmly said, "I'm not the same as you."

"You don't seem worried or rushed here." Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi's beautify brows frowned.

Wang Lin remained silent as he closed his eyes and continued to absorb the Mountain Sea Tree Spirit that was inside his body.

When Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi saw Wang Lin close his eyes and ignore her, she pouted but continued to speak. "My protective light curtain has been devoured. If it is as you said before, then I fear it will be very difficult for Teacher to find us in a short period of time, even if he came to the Mountain Sea. If the broken palm went elsewhere, it will take even longer.

"We have lost all contact with the outside world, aren't you worried?"

Seeing that Wang Lin still didn't speak, Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi's beautiful eyes stared at him. After a long time, she revealed an angry and depressed expression.

"There are only the two of us here. You act like a tree and don't talk. You just watch me talk to myself. It is very interesting!"

Wang Lin opened his eyes. He felt rather helpless as he looked at Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi.

"I think this environment would be pretty good for cultivating if you stopped interrupting me."

"You!!" Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi immediately stood up and let out a snort. Her beautiful body turned around and left. She went more than 10,000 feet away and ignored Wang Lin.

Seeing Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi leave, Wang Lin closed his eyes and immersed himself in absorbing the Mountain Sea Tree Spirit. However, his divine sense was still scattered as he was very vigilant.

As for the sea dragon, it was coiled around Wang Lin and was staring viciously at the octopus, who was also staring viciously back at it. They didn't roar, but their gazes seemed to throw countless vicious words at each other. They seemed to be cursing each other through their gazes.

Time silently passed like this. 10 days, 20 days, one month, two months, three months...

In the blink of an eye, four months passed.

For these four months, Wang Lin hadn't said a word and had been focused on absorbing the Mountain Sea Tree Spirit.

The sea dragon had been at a staring contest with the octopus for four months. It didn't feel tired at all and was full of spirit as it stared viciously at the octopus.

On the contrary, the octopus seemed a bit tired, but it refused to yield. The two had stared at each other for four months.

"Wang… Wang Lin, something is wrong…" After four months, Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi seemed worried. She walked over from few thousand feet away and sat down 200 feet away from Wang Lin.

Wang Lin opened his eyes and looked at Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi. He hadn't seen her for four months, and her beautiful face seemed a bit fatigued. However, her beauty was still as heart-throbbing as before.

"It's impossible for Teacher to not have found us in four months… Since he knows I'm in danger, even if the broken palm has left the Mountain Sea, Teacher would be able to divinate where it went. It's impossible for him to not find us after four months." Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi did not hide her worry. While trapped here for four months, she was unable to stay calm and always had a bad feeling.

Wang Lin calmly said, "Three possibilities.

"First possibility: the broken palm has gone to a place no one can detect. Not even divination can find it!"

"Second possibility: your teacher didn't come to save you immediately like you thought."

"Impossible! If Teacher knew I was in danger, he would come immediately! As for your first possibility, it's also impossible. With Teacher's cultivation level, there should be no place in the celestial clan he can't divinate!" Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi said quickly. Then she looked at Wang Lin and hesitated a bit before speaking again.

"You should have guessed it, my teacher is Grand Empyrean Jiu Di!"

Wang Lin's expression remained the same and he was not surprised at all. Back when she took out the pill bottle with the word "Di" on it, he had his speculations. To take an Empyrean Exalt as a disciple and make her his confidant meant that her teacher must have shocking power.

Adding these two facts, it was likely that her teacher was a Grand Empyrean. And adding the name "Di," aside from the Celestial Emperor, the only other possibility was Grand Empyrean Jiu Di, who was also at the Central Continent.

"Since that's the case, there is a third possibility. After the broken palm engulfed the light curtain, the passage of time became different from the outside. Perhaps hundreds of years here is only one day outside," Wang Lin said, calmly and slowly.

Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi's face immediately turned pale. She was a very intelligent person and had also thought of his. However, hearing that Wang Lin had the same idea, she was 60% to 70% certain.

"Although Teacher gave me this light curtain, it can't last for hundreds of years… Once it breaks…" The terror of the broken palm appeared in her eyes.

Just as the two were talking, the light curtain suddenly rumbled and trembled. It shrank from 100,000 feet to 90,000 feet!

A vague figure appeared in the dark void outside the light curtain. The figure drifted there and looked at Wang Lin and Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi. It gave off a ferocious aura.

"Discovered non-Immortal Astral Continent soul, seal!" the vague figure muttered to himself.

As the light curtain shrank, Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi looked up and vaguely saw the dark figure outside.

Wang Lin also saw the figure outside the light curtain. There was a flash of coldness in his eyes and he slowly said, "Reduce the light curtain to 1,000 feet so it can resist for longer."

After he spoke, Wang Lin waved his right hand at the sea dragon. The sea dragon turned into a ray of blue light and was put away by Wang Lin. Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi hesitated a bit and also put the octopus away. Her hand formed seals and she waved them at the light curtain. The light curtain shrank from 90,000 feet to 1,000 feet.

At the same time, Wang Lin and Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi were the only two people left in the light curtain.

Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi let out a sigh. She sat in a corner and closed her eyes to cultivate.

Time slowly passed. The fourth month, sixth month… Soon, a year had passed.

One year of time was not long outside, but for the man and woman trapped inside a 1,000 feet area, it seemed to go a bit slow.

Wang Lin was a bit better off as he was used to loneliness. He used this time to fuse two of the Mountain Sea Tree Spirits. The bud of the wood essence had appeared in his five-element true body and was rapidly growing.

However, after eight months of silence, Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi opened her beautiful eyes and looked at Wang Lin. The man before him caused her to feel hatred but also aroused a complicated feeling.

Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi softly said, "Ever since I began cultivating, I have never lived with a stranger for a year. You… I only know that your name is Wang Lin, as that's what you have told me. Which sect did you come from?"

"Sect…" Wang Lin awakened from his cultivation and reminiscence filled his eyes.

After a long time, Wang Lin calmly said, "I came from the Seven Dao Sect."

"Seven Dao Sect?" Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi thought for a moment. There didn't seem to be a Seven Dao Sect as she recalled all the powerful sects.

"Eastern Continent, Seven Dao Sect, a very small sect…." Wang Lin sighed. Now that someone had asked him about his sect, he felt homesick.

Empyrean Exalt softly said, "I don't have a sect. I followed Teacher since I was little. I grew up on Emperor Mountain."

"Emperor Mountain is very beautiful. During this season, it is covered in red leaves, as if it's on fire… If you have the chance, you should see Emperor Mountain."

As they chatted, a special atmosphere spread out within this 1,000 foot area.

"With your Empyrean Exalt combat power, I presume the Southern Continent's Grand Empyrean Dao Yi has tried to recruit you… Did you agree?" Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi's beautiful gaze fell on Wang Lin.

"No." Wang Lin shook his head.

After hearing his words, Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi smiled and blinked as she whispered, "My teacher is a very good person… Why don't you follow him…"

"I'm currently not considering." Wang Lin didn't directly refuse but delayed.

"How long have you cultivated?" Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi suddenly asked.

"Probably not as long as you." Wang Lin frowned.

When Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi heard this, she covered her mouth and laughed. This was the first time she did this.

"You have the power of an Empyrean Exalt at your cultivation level, but you are in no rush to leave. That means you don't have a dao partner. Otherwise, it would be impossible for you to not be worried at all," Empyrean Exalt said while laughing.

Wang Lin frowned again and looked at the beautiful woman before him. He vaguely felt like there was something strange about her, something different from what he had felt before.

"Seeing how both of us are trapped here and you didn't leave me alone, how about having Big Sister here introduce you to someone?" Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi seemed very interested in this subject as she examined Wang Lin.

"Appearance is normal but has a unique temperament - not bad.

"Cultivation level is ordinary but has Empyrean Exalt combat power - very good.

"Overall still pretty good. How about this: once we get out, Big Sister will help you find a dao partner." Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi's eyes shined brightly. She looked at Wang Lin and gently moved her alluring lips.

Wang Lin's eyes lit up and he coldly said, "Put away your charm spell!"

Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi frowned, and when she was about to speak, Wang Lin's eyes released a golden light. He looked extremely majestic with this gaze, and there was also a suppression force coming from his eyes. Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi didn't speak due to that gaze.

"If you want to speak to someone after being trapped here for too long, then I'll help you find someone to talk to!" As Wang Lin spoke, a shadow appeared over his body. His slaughter thunder essence true body walked out and sat between him and Empyrean Exalt Hai zi.

"Talk to my avatar, don't interrupt my cultivation!" There was a flash of coldness in Wang Lin's eyes as he got up and walked to the furthest corner from Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi. He sat down again and closed his eyes to refine the third Mountain Sea Tree Spirit.

Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi was startled. She didn't think Wang Lin would think of this method. She frowned and looked at the slaughter thunder essence true body that gave off a cold aura that was staring at her with a cold gaze. She snorted and began to cultivate as well.

"There is something strange about Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi!" When Wang Lin's original body sat down to cultivate, he looked at Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi and his pupils shrank an undetectable amount.

"I originally thought something had changed with the broken palm so that when it appeared again, it didn't fly toward me but attacked her first...

"Looking at it now, there seems to be some secret…" The change to Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi was very strange, but Wang Lin didn't notice anything like two souls in one body. That's why he used the Celestial Ancestor's sword in his eyes but also found nothing.

"At first, Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi gave me the feeling that she was normal, but just now she seemed a little unbridled." Wang Lin frowned and pondered for a moment. Then he ignored this matter and immersed himself in absorbing the Mountain Sea Tree Spirit.

In a flash, three years passed.

During these three years, Wang Lin ignored Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi. He continued to absorb the Mountain Sea Tree Spirit and the wood essence in his body continued to grow. After three years, he had absorbed four spirits and his wood essence had reached small completion.

Patterns of green had appeared on the surface of Wang Lin's skin. They looked like the veins of plants. It made Wang Lin look somewhat strange.

During these three years, Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi didn't speak a word and was immersed in cultivation like Wang Lin. Her expression sometimes changed, and it was unknown what spell she was cultivating.

During these three years, a thunderous rumble would echoed from outside every once in a while, as if there was a powerful force hitting the light curtain. As time went by, this rumble became even more common.

The 1,000 foot light curtain had showed signs of shrinking over the last three years.

On the fourth month after three years, the thunderous rumble was far louder than before. It interrupted Wang Lin's cultivation and he looked up.

When he looked up, his expression changed and he stepped forward. The moment he stepped forward, the 1,000 foot light curtain suddenly shrank!!

It shrank nearly to half, 500 feet! Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi also awakened and stepped forward.

The thunderous rumble lasted for almost half an hour before it slowly dissipated and the light curtain had shrank to only 500 feet! 500 feet was extremely close for Wang Lin and Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi. The two of them looked at each other.

"It looks like this light curtain can't last even 10 years… I shrank it to resist against the broken palm, but even so, after three years, it shrank to 500 feet...

"If it was still 100,000 feet like before, it might have already been broken." Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi's appearance and speech were different from a few years ago. They seemed to have gone back to normal.

"I fear it won't take long for this 500 foot range to shrink until the light curtain collapses…" Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi frowned and revealed a look of helplessness.

There was a flash of coldness in Wang Lin's eyes. He looked up at the light curtain and saw the blurry figure hiding in the darkness. The figure hiding there seemed to be looking back at him.

The moment their gazes met, Wang Lin's heart trembled. It was as if the gaze from the figure contained a strange force that could suck in his attention. It also caused a sense of restlessness to fill his body.

Wang Lin's eyes shined brightly and he immediately came to his senses.

"It is still staring at us… Watching our every move. It has constantly been doing this for three years." There was fear in Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi's eyes as she spoke.

Wang Lin slowly said, "It's a broken palm!

"But whose broken palm is it?" Wang Lin's eyes lit up. Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi was startled as he flew upwards.

Wang Lin's sudden movement caused Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi to reveal a look of worry, and she was about to follow.

"Don't come up. If you think that something is wrong with me, awaken me immediately!" Wang Lin didn't look back, but his voice echoed in Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi's mind.

Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi's beautiful body stopped and watched Wang Lin's back as he flew up. For some reason, this reminded her of when he blocked the palm for her a few years ago.

Wang Lin instantly closed in on the edge of the light curtain until he was less than three feet from it. When he got close to the light curtain, the blurry figure outside moved toward him.

Outside the light curtain, the blurry figure also stopped and was three feet away from the light curtain as well. It was six feet away from Wang Lin!

It was a face without skin, it was a bloody mess, and extremely scary. However, it contained an unspeakable sense of majesty. But the overall figure was a blur. Only the left hand was very solid, as if it were real, but that was because it had skin!

After faintly seeing the face of the figure, Wang Lin's pupils shrank and he revealed a look of disbelief. It was as if millions of bolts of thunder had exploded in his mind, and his body trembled!

The blurry, skinless face's eyes revealed a strange light that seemed like it was going to penetrate Wang Lin's eyes.

Wang Lin's mind rumbled and he lost consciousness. In his mind, that gaze contained a pair of eternal eyes. This pair of eyes contained an unspeakable sense of strangeness and turned into a voice that echoed in Wang Lin's mind.

"Come… Come… Come…"

As the sound echoed, a thunder-like heartbeat came from Wang Lin's body, resisting the bombardment of the voice. Wang Lin suddenly awakened and heard the anxious calls from Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi. A fragrance swept toward him as she was already closing in.

"I'm fine," Wang Lin slowly said. He was only one foot away from the light curtain. He only needed one more step to walk out of the light curtain.

The moment Wang Lin awakened, the blurry figure let out a roar and smashed into the light curtain. The light curtain flashed violently but didn't break.

"Celestial Ancestor…" Wang Lin's gaze penetrated the light curtain and landed on the figure smashing into the light curtain like crazy.

Although the face of the figure outside had no skin and was just flesh and blood, Wang Lin had seen the shocking scene of the Celestial Ancestor sealing the Heavenly Bull when he absorbed the fire vein.

The face of the vague figure was extremely similar to the face of the Celestial Ancestor!!

As the vague figure roared violently, ripples echoed across the light curtain. Wang Lin's expression was gloomy as he retreated back to the ground. The 500 foot light curtain trembled under the impact and shrank once more.

It shrank from 500 feet to 300 feet. This caused Wang Lin and Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi to be even closer.

The vague figure smashed into the light curtain for half an hour before it slowly calmed down. It stared at Wang Lin and Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi before retreating back into the dark.

Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi bit her lower lip and looked at the light curtain above. A moment later, she gloomily said, "This light curtain won't last for long…"

Wang Lin silently pondered. What he had vaguely seen made him feel like there was some secret hidden in the broken palm. If not, why would the Celestial Ancestor appear?

Wang Lin's eyes lit up and he looked at Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi. "Your teacher is Grand Empyrean Jiu Di. Have you heard about the Celestial Ancestor?"

"Celestial Ancestor?" Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi looked at Wang Lin. When Wang Lin recognized the figure as the Celestial Ancestor, he had thought about it but hadn't said it out loud. So Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi didn't know what Wang Lin had seen.

"I heard Teacher mention it once. A long time ago, the celestial clan only had one continent. The Celestial Ancestor sealed beings that came from outside the continents to create the 72 continents we know today.

"I once heard from Teacher that after sealing the 72nd being, the Celestial Ancestor went missing. No one knows where he went. Even his descendants searched for a long time and didn't learn the outcome.

"But Teacher once accidentally muttered something that made it seem as if the Celestial Ancestor wasn't missing… Teacher suspects that the Celestial Ancestor encountered something… As for the specifics, Teacher didn't want to elaborate on the matter." Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi revealed a pondering gaze as she slowly spoke.

When these words entered Wang Lin's ears, he was silent but pondering.

"Perhaps this broken palm belongs to the Celestial Ancestor… If so, who cut off the Celestial Ancestor's left hand… There are many rumors about the collapse of the Celestial Ancestor's sword. Could the collapse of the sword be related to this broken palm…?

"However, why was this broken palm inside the Mountain Sea Tree seal? And this seal has been around for countless years. The Grand Empyreans would have long noticed it, but why did it only move now… Also, this area belongs to Grand Empyrean Dao Yi. With his cultivation level of Grand Empyrean, how could he not be aware?

"Or maybe…" Wang Lin's eyes shined brightly.

"The several Grand Empyreans, including Dao Yi, long knew about the strange seal on the Mountain Sea Tree, but in the end, none of them acted recklessly…" Wang Lin cultivated and continued to deduce. He took a deep breath and was shaken by the conclusion he came to.

Wang Lin's eyes shined undetectably as he slowly said, "Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi, since your teacher is Grand Empyrean Jiu Di, why are you so far away from the Central Continent and live at the Mountain Sea?"

"You doubt me?" Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi looked at Wang Lin. Her beautiful eyes shined brightly.

"What a clever woman!" Wang Lin thought to himself. Just based on one sentence from him, Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi had guessed a lot.

Wang Lin didn't explain, he just calmly looked at Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi.

The beautiful woman pondered a bit and her expression changed as if she was thinking of something. After a long time, she seemed to have thought of something and suddenly looked up, her eyes revealing a strange light.

She frowned and whispered, "It was my teacher who told me to come the Southern Continent and make the Mountain Sea my cave."

Wang Lin's eyes lit up. This confirmed some of his speculations. If this was true, then this was very problematic.

Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi quickly asked, "Where did you learn that the Mountain Sea Tree has tree spirits?"

"I heard it from an Empyrean Exalt under Grand Empyrean Wu Fen that there were tree spirits under the Mountain Sea…" Wang Lin pondered even more.

"I came to the Mountain Sea before and had a cave here, but not for long. However, 200 years ago, Teacher suddenly told me to live here for a long time… You were pointed here by someone under Grand Empyrean Wu Feng… And this territory belongs to Grand Empyrean Dao Yi." Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi's expression was extremely gloomy.

Wang Lin smiled faintly. Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi's words meant that she understood the key to this problem.

Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi closed her beautiful eyes. After a long time, she quietly said, "Teacher is using me as bait to lure out the broken palm in the seal of the Mountain Sea Tree!

"I can understand this. Teacher raised me and taught me how to cultivate. Even if I'm bait, I have no complaints. The strange part is, why did Grand Empyrean Wu Feng involve you? What's the point of luring you here?" Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi opened her eyes and looked at Wang Lin.

Wang Lin's expression remained neutral and he silently shook his head. However, he had a guess about this matter!

"Ordinary cultivators might not be able to see through my origin, and even Empyrean Exalts would find it difficult to detect. However, it is no secret to Grand Empyreans!

"The person under Grand Empyrean Wu Feng pointed me here with the intent to verify my identity, and he also holds the same goal as Grand Empyrean Jiu Di!

"Although Grand Empyrean Jiu Di used his disciple as bait, his method was obviously still gentle and he merely let her live here to silently attract the Mountain Sea Tree Spirit. However, I have no connection with Grand Empyrean Wu Feng, so he doesn't care about whether I live or die. He could both verify my identity and lure out the broken palm!

"They don't care if I came from the cave world or not, but if I'm an Ancient Country cultivator!!" Wang Lin had cultivated for nearly 3,000 years and, especially in the cave world, he had resolved crisis after crisis based on his own analysis and deduction.

Although his mind was not too demonic, he had a mind that could deduct the truth by putting clues together!

"I just don't know what role Grand Empyrean Dao Yi played in this." Wang Lin's head was lowered and there was a flash of coldness in his eyes.

"Since Teacher dared to let the Gui Yi Sect know, then I believe he is confident they won't leak the information. Apart from this weakness, no one would know I'm Grand Empyrean Xuan Luo's only disciple!

"As long as I don't reveal my identity, everything will be fine even though I came from the cave world! Let's wait for a while; this is, after all, just my speculation." Wang Lin pondered and looked at Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi. This beautiful woman had her eyes closed and revealed nothing on her face.

"If Grand Empyrean Jiu Di is really using her as bait, then there must be something strange about her!" Wang Lin thought about the speculations from before and was more confident. However, he still had some doubts, like what kind of secret the broken palm had with the celestial clan to attract the attention of Grand Empyreans!

Wang Lin withdrew his gaze and continued to focus on absorbing the Mountain Sea Tree Spirit. No matter what happened now, increasing his own cultivation level was fundamental to dealing with everything in the future!

Time began to pass in this silence once more.

In a flash, another three years passed! Adding the previous years, Wang Lin and Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi had been trapped here for seven years!

During these three years, the blurry figure from the broken palm had appeared a total of nine times. Each time, it roared and bombarded the light curtain, causing it to shrink nine times.

On this day, it was the ninth time! As the light curtain trembled, a cracking sound echoed, as if the curtain had reached its limit. It had shrunk nine times during the last three years due to the broken palm, so it was now only 30 feet wide!!

The 30 foot distance forced Wang Lin and Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi to be very close. Wang Lin could even smell Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi's bodily fragrance.

30 feet wasn't big. If Wang Lin took out his Yin Blade, it was 30 feet long. This showed how small this area was.

Because they were so close, Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi could no longer cultivate. Her face was slightly red and she was somewhat uncomfortable. Her gaze toward Wang Lin had become more complicated.

The same way Wang Lin could smell Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi's bodily fragrance, she could also feel the body heat coming from Wang Lin.

"This area… is too small… If there is no solution, the light curtain will soon break, and if it shrinks again…" Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi felt anger and shame.

Wang Lin also frowned. In his whole life, aside from a limited number of women, he was rarely this close to a stranger. He was very uncomfortable as well, and the waves of bodily fragrance coming from her made Wang Lin frown constantly.

Adding on their seven years of contact, Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi was an absolute beauty, like Mu Bingmei. This feeling made Wang Lin sigh in secret.

"I can't let this continue…" Wang Lin's eyes lit up. However, at this moment, due to the light curtain shrinking and cracks appearing, the shadow outside appeared once more. It violently attacked the light curtain, and the sound outside became even more intense. The cracks on the light curtain began to spread.

Under the bombardment, the light curtain shrank once more!

Thirty feet, twenty feet, ten feet!!

Five feet!

When only five feet remained, Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi was almost right next to Wang Lin's right side. Both could feel each other's body temperature through their clothes.

The surroundings were completely black and the broken palm outside had stopped bombarding for some reason, leaving only silence. Only Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi's breathing could be heard clearly inside the light curtain.

"Wang… Wang Lin…" In the darkness, Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi spoke softly. Her warm breath landed on Wang Lin's face.

"Don't talk!" Wang Lin suddenly said as his eyes lit up. He looked up at the light curtain, and the shadow formed by the broken palm stared back.

"This light curtain will break soon. Control the formation to shatter and use the force from the collapse to push us out as fast as possible!

"When we charge out, both of us will use our strongest spells! I presume you have guessed that your teacher is already here!" Wang Lin looked at the vague figure when he suddenly sent a message to Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi.

Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi pondered for a moment and gently nodded.

Wang Lin took a deep breath and inevitably inhaled some of Hai Zi's fragrance, but he had no time to feel discomfort. There was a flash of coldness in his eyes.

Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi's hands formed a seal and pointed at the light curtain above!

With this, the light curtain rumbled. The countless cracks collapsed. As the countless fragments shattered, the remaining force pushed the two of them out.

Borrowing this force, Wang Lin and Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi charged out as the light curtain collapsed. Also, Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi followed Wang Lin's previous command. Her hands formed seals and the oval seal that contained 90 spells appeared. The oval seal emitted an extremely bright light.

The oval seal first smashed into the shadow from the broken palm and created a thunderous rumble. This rumble was so loud, it felt like the void was blown open. The shadow was pushed back

At this moment, there were three figures above the Mountain Sea, floating there and looking down. Although the three of them were there, if cultivators passed by, they wouldn't be able to detect them at all. They wouldn't even be able to see them!

Among these three figures, one of them was a young man in a dao robe. Black hair, sword-like brows, and looked around 20 years old. His eyes were like the stars, and it was easy for people to lose themselves looking at them.

He looked very young but was surrounded by an ancient aura. He looked calm, but everything around him was frozen. It was as if everything around him had to freeze to worship him.

He was Grand Empyrean Dao Yi!

Several feet away from him was the second figure. This was a middle-aged man with a long figure. He was a head taller than Empyrean Exalt Dao Yi. He wore very simple linen clothes and his hands were behind his back.

He didn't have any hair but didn't seem bald. His expression was rough and he was not handsome, but he gave off the illusion of a storm. His eyes revealed a terrifying aura that made the world tremble under his feet.

Anyone who looked at him would forget about him and would only remember that shocking gaze! He looked calm and gave off an aura of might without being angry!

An unspeakable aura spread out. This aura seemed like the limit of the celestial dao, the ultimate martial art! It was as if this person had reached dao with martial arts, used martial arts to break the world and step into the rank of Grand Empyrean!

Then, the moment he became a Grand Empyrean, he sealed his own martial art to return to the origin and become one with the world! That's why his name is Wu Feng! [1]

Originally, nothing moved in the area around Dao Yi, but this man's hair and clothes fluttered as if there was wind. It seems like Dao Yi's aura had no effect on him.

The last figure was an old man. The old man was wearing a blue robe and was standing there calmly. There was nothing extraordinary about him and he looked like an ordinary cultivator. His appearance wasn't anything special and he had a slightly hunched back.

His face was filled with wrinkles and there wasn't much light in his eyes. He looked sickly and depressed, but he was fine in Dao Yi's aura that froze everything, and it was as if Wu Feng's unique aura didn't even exist to him.

"Jiu Di, your disciple is in trouble" Dao Yi smiled and looked at the old man in green. Although this old man looked normal, Dao Yi knew that Jiu Di was the oldest of the current five Grand Empyreans. It was rumored that he was a cultivator from back when the Celestial Ancestor was still around.

His original name was Jiu(nine) Di and his appearance was extremely handsome. However, after countless years and nine reincarnations, the Jiu(nine) became Jiu(long)! [2]

The green-robed old man slowly said, "If not for you two, my disciple could have long escaped."

"This has nothing to do with me, I have a good impression of this Wang Lin." Dao Yi smiled and shook his head.

"I also have a good impression of this person, but there is still something about his origin that needs to be tested here!" The person who spoke was Wu Feng.

"Back then, Xuan Luo came to the Celestial Clan. As long as he is not related to Xuan Luo, it will be fine." Dao Yi looked at the Mountain Sea below.

However, Dao Yi suddenly exclaimed softly. Not only him, but Wu Feng also looked over with a serious gaze. The old man was also surprised as he looked over.

The Mountain Sea below was covered by a layer of black ink. Beneath the black ink was the endless sea, and at the bottom was a black hole. Inside the black hole was the Mountain Sea Tree. Violent rumbles came from the layers of seals around it.

It was Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi who had attacked. The oval seal collided with the broken palm, but after the broken palm collapsed, it reformed. Wang Lin raised his hand and the Heavenly Bull tattoo on his face flashed. The soul armor covered his whole body and he used his strongest spell!!

"There must be a Grand Empyrean outside, either Wu Feng, Dao Yi, or Jiu Di. Since you want to see my origin and my strength, then I'll let you all clearly see them!"

Wang Lin raised his right hand and waved as he rushed out.

With this wave, the world changed colors. The sound of waves echoing rang out in this dark void. A sea appeared, and at the edge of the sea, the outline of a golden sun was quickly rising!!

As the sun rose, endless golden light spread out in all directions. The sunlight contained the power to tear open the darkness and caused the dark night to be pushed back.

A figure appeared inside the sun. That figure was Wang Lin!

His eyes were closed and he rose with the sun. As the golden light tore open the darkness, he opened his eyes.

When he opened his eyes, the endless golden light released by the sun contained a trace of faith. This was Wang Lin's faith. It was precisely this faith that made Wang Lin's Sundered Night into a faith spell!

"If you all want to see, then I'll let you see!" Wang Lin's eyes shined brightly.

"I believe all darkness will be scattered!

"I believe light will penetrate the dark sky and shine on the earth!

"I believe all my enemies will scatter!!"

As Wang Lin muttered this, the sunlight tore open the night and penetrated the dark, broken palm shadow. The shadow began to condense but immediately collapsed into countless specks, becoming dim. They didn't dissipate but were pushed back and showed signs of reforming!

However, from its bleak color, this broken palm shadow didn't escape Wang Lin's most powerful spell uninjured.

The endless sunlight continued to spread. It not only penetrated the night, but also the Mountain Sea Tree. It was as if there was as sun inside the Mountain Sea Tree!!

The sunlight shined through the trunk of the Mountain Sea Tree and penetrated the seal. It ignored the black hole and shined through directly from the bottom of the Mountain Sea. The blackness in the sea faded as the sun light shined through.

It penetrated through the layer of black ink on the surface of the sea and entered the eyes of Dao Yi, Wu Feng, and Jiu Di!!

"Faith spell!" Grand Empyrean Dao Yi's eyes shined brightly.

"He's an Empyrean Exalt cultivator, but he has such faith power!" Grand Empyrean Wu Feng's eyes shined and revealed a powerful gaze.

Only the short old man frowned. He raised his right hand and pointed at the water below. It was a very ordinary action, as if it was done by a mortal.

As the sea was penetrated by the endless sunlight, thunderous rumbles echoed. The sea seemed to be boiling as it churned and a huge finger seemed to push down toward the bottom!

Thunderous rumbles echoed as Wang Lin charged out from the sea without hesitation. He quickly flew away as if he didn't see the three Grand Empyreans.

Behind him, Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi followed, but the sea below her formed a vortex. A huge, broken palm was chasing after her.

However, just as the broken palm closed in, the finger made of sea water arrived and collided with the broken palm.

The resulting rumble was thunderous as the broken palm paused for a moment. Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi's face was pale as she escaped from the sea!

Roar!!

The broken palm was pushed down by the finger, but a ferocious roar echoed. The broken palm turned into the shadow and roared at the sky. Its eyes were even more crazed, and it could see the three Grand Empyreans in the sky. It ignored Hai Zi and charged at those three.

It was as if no one could trample on its might!

The blue-robed old man's eyes shined and he stepped forward. He stood between Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi and the broken palm as he raised his right hand!

"Teacher…" Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi looked at the old man. She silently pondered and couldn't help but look at where Wang Lin had gone. She had a complicated expression as she let out a sigh.

1. Wu is martial arts, Feng is seal. Hence his name.

2. Play on words where both chinese for nine and long are pronounced "Jiu"

Wang Lin's figure suddenly appeared at the edge of the Mountain Sea. With one step, he merged with the world and disappeared.

Only when Wang Lin was far away form the Mountain Sea Continent, at the Mountain Sea Forest Continent, did he appear above an ancient pine forest. He floated above the forest and looked behind him.

Earlier, he had used Sundered Night to awaken the broken palm, then he escaped without hesitation. When he came out, he vaguely felt three powerful auras that could break the world looming there. Combined with his earlier speculations, it wasn't difficult to guess who they were.

Wang Lin sat down on top of the pine tree and took a deep breath. The world here was very large and much more comfortable than inside the light curtain.

"There must be some secret with the broken palm. I gained a lot on this trip to the Mountain Sea Tree. Aside from the spirits, I also gained a fragment of the Celestial Ancestor's sword!" Wang Lin's eyes lit up. There was a hint of golden light in his hand.

"I couldn't absorb it inside Empyrean Exalt Hai Zi's light curtain. Now that I'm free, I will fuse it with the fragment in my eye as soon as possible!" Wang Lin had considered what the Grand Empyreans would ask him, but since they had let him leave, that meant he must have passed their test.

In a flash, Wang Lin's body became a blur and slowly fused with a pine tree below. In the ancient tree, Wang Lin sat down and took out the last two Mountain Sea Tree Spirits.

"During these past several years, my wood essence has reached completion and I can feel the wood essence in the world around me. I have two spirit lefts, but I don't know if I can create an essence true body after absorbing them!

"However, this wood essence is a bit strange. After fusing it with my body, the absorption became slower and slower. I wonder when it will become mine." Wang Lin took out the two spirits and immediately fused them with his body to be slowly absorbed and refined.

"This matter is not urgent, and it will still take some time to absorb them. I need to focus on absorbing the sword fragment, then consider my next action." Wang Lin's right hand moved and the sword fragment he had risked his life for appeared in his hand. The fragment gave off endless golden light.

This fragment was the size of his palm and its edges were irregular, but it gave off a sharp aura, as if it could cut anything in the world.

Staring at the fragment in his hand, Wang Lin's eyes also released golden light. In his eyes, the looming shadow of a sword fragment also appeared.

The golden light coming from his eyes seemed to cross with the golden light from the fragment in his hand. A strange attraction force spread out from Wang Lin's heart. The feeling of something calling him echoed in his mind.

As the feeling became even stronger, the sword fragment turned into countless golden light lines, as if it had melted, then they all flew toward Wang Lin's eyes.

When the last golden light entered Wang Lin's eyes, the golden light coming from the pine tree disappeared completely and it was dark once more. Wang Lin sat there and calmly cultivated.

Time passed slowly. As the sun and moon changed places in the sky, seven days went by. It was autumn in the pine forest, and the sound of the pine needles in the wind sounded like countless people clapping.

Leaves scattered with the wind like children leaving home. It was unknown where they would go. Cultivators passed by during these seven days, but none of them knew that there was a cultivator inside one of the pine trees.

During these seven days of time, Wang Lin remained motionless, but a shocking, golden light was hidden behind his eyes lid. In his mind, countless years had passed during these seven days.

In his mind, there were two sword fragments that were fusing. Both were the size of his palm and had irregular edges. However, during the last seven days, these two fragments had completely fused.

With their fusion, a small, golden sword about one foot long appeared. The sword was very sharp and seemed to contain endless pressure. After it formed, it became even more solid in Wang Lin's mind.

On the eighth day, Wang Lin suddenly opened his eyes and a monstrous, golden light came from them. This golden light was several times more powerful than before, and the suppression force it carried felt solid. It was as if a sword had flown out and shattered the world. The pine tree Wang Lin was in was filled with this golden light.

However, soon, the golden light coming from Wang Lin's eyes reduced inch by inch. After a few hours, all the golden light was condensed in Wang Lin's eyes, and none of it leaked out. Even his eyes were clear and didn't look abnormal.

However, in this clarity, there was a hidden sense of strength and majesty. It was as if your heart would tremble and you would retreat before even battling if you met these eyes.

This was the power of suppression! He was using the Celestial Ancestor's sword to suppress all life!

After taking a deep breath, Wang Lin slowly closed his eyes and opened them a moment later. At this moment, even that hidden sense of strength and majesty disappeared. It was as if he had reached a level of returning to the origin.

"Celestial Ancestor's sword, the peak of the metal essence. I didn't expect the fusion of these two sword fragments to cause the last essence, the metal essence, to appear!" Wang Lin looked calm. Although this was sudden, he had some enlightenment after seven days of refining.

"One fragment was equal to be absorbing the Mountain Sea Tree Spirit for several years…" Wang Lin raised his right hand and waved. A total of 98 afterimages appeared and fused with his hand as he formed a fist.

Waves of crackling sounds came from the palm of his hand. It was crisp but contained the aura of destruction. Nine black vortexes appeared in his fist, each containing a spell fused with his body.

Before Wang Lin went to the Mountain Sea, he could fuse nine spells into his attacks. Now he stared at his right hand and watched the nine vortexes around his right first. Cracking sounds echoed as the 10th vortex appeared around the other nine.

"Should be more than 10!" Wang Lin loosened his right hand and gripped once more. A muffled rumble echoed as the 11th vortex appeared!

The 11th vortex meant that Wang Lin could fuse 11 spells into his attacks with just his original body. Once his essence true bodies appeared, Wang Lin's attack would contain 44 spells!

His five-element true body would copy his original and double his spells. Then his thunder essence true body would triple it. Finally, there were his ethereal essences. Although he hadn't formed an essence true body for them, ethereal essences were always more mysterious. Wang Lin's three ethereal essences combined were enough to allow this to happen.

This multiplication was a battle method he had slowly comprehended himself as he battled others over the last 50 years.

"I should be able to do more…" Wang Lin muttered as his left hand pointed at his right palm. With this, Wang Lin's body trembled and he let out a roar.

The 12th vortex suddenly appeared around his right hand, and following that, the 13th vortex appeared.

Wang Lin's breathing became a bit rough. He could feel that he had reached his limit!

"13 spells. Without the soul armor, I can battle against an Empyrean Exalt that has fused 52 spells if I use my essences!

"I wonder if I can pass the fifth level at the Empyrean Trial with my current strength! It should be enough!" Wang Lin smiled.

However, he had no intention of going to the Empyrean Trial again. Wang Lin had made up his mind: he was going to shock everyone the next time he went in there!

"Attracting the attention of all the Grand Empyreans will depend on my second attempt at the Empyrean Trial! Now there is no need to keep challenging other Empyrean Exalts. I need to head to the Eastern Continent, go to the Dong Lin Sect, and see if the Dong Lin pool is the same as the one I saw in the illusion in the cave world, or if it's different!" Wang Lin stood up and his eyes shined.

"I'll head to the Dong Lin Sect and then head to the Empyrean Trail the second time to see how many levels I can pass! After that, I will need to choose a Grand Empyrean, then I will head to my last stop in the celestial clan: the imperial city at the Central Continent!!

"After resolving the issue in the imperial city, I'll leave the celestial clan and head to the Ancient Country. I'll find my teacher, Xuan Luo, and complete my promise!" Wang Lin took a deep breath and disappeared from the pine. He turned into a ray of light and flew off toward the distant Eastern Continent.

"I can feel myself getting stronger and stronger. Wan Er, once I become a Grand Empyrean, it will be the day when I personally resurrect my wife!

"That day is not far away. It's very close, very close… Wan Er, it is very close." As Wang Lin charged forward, he revealed a rare hint of warmth in his eyes. That warm gaze contained thousands of years of unrepentant persistence.

To the north of the Eastern Continent, there was a continent called Great Sage!

The Great Sage Continent was extremely remote and even more desolate than the Heavenly Bull Continent, but this was only for cultivators. There were a lot of mortals on this continent, and the land was good, so plants grew abundantly. The mortals on the Great Sage Continent lived a good life.

Rumors of celestials had been passed down through the mortals for countless years, so almost everyone worshipped celestials. They all wanted to become celestials.

However, the sects on this continent rarely went out. Maybe this was due to how mysterious the number one sect of the continent, the Dong Lin Sect, was. And all the other sects followed suit. They all covered themselves in layers of fog, but it was because of this that the mortals yearned it even more.

The mysteries of the Dong Lin Sect made them very low-key among the nine sects and thirteen factions. Their disciples rarely went out and most of them cultivated within the sect.

There were many white clouds in the sky above the Great Sage Continent. The clouds covered the sky almost year-round. The white clouds seemed to become part of the sky, and if there was a time when there were no clouds, the mortals would be quite surprised.

At this moment in the Great Sage Continent, outside a mortal city, there were nearly 100 people standing outside. They were being led by three or four old fellows who looked sickly bit filled with spirit. Their servants were supporting them, and they had waited for two hours.

The rest of the people were all very patient, as if simply being here was glorious. They all looked into the distance as if they were waiting for something.

However, it seemed they had waited for too long. After another hour, it was now noon. The hot sun shined on the earth, and even the wind was hot.

Some of the people could not bear the suffering anymore. Even if they had strong hearts, the heat from the sun caused them to feel faint. One of the middle-aged men in a clerk robe that was near the front received a piece of ice from a servant. He placed it on his forehead and couldn't help but mutter a complaint.

"Did Great Celestial forget to come here… We have been waiting here for almost three hours. It is now noon, the hottest time. How long do we have to wait…"

A sickly old man in front heard the middle-aged clerk and immediately turned around to stare at the middle-aged clerk. "Shut up! Even if Great Celestial doesn't come, it is a matter of fact. If you don't want to wait, no one is forcing you!"

After being scolded by the old man, the middle-aged man revealed a flattering smile and was about to explain.

"Hmph, Great Celestial was willing to come here after this old man and a few friends begged him for a long time. Even at my age, I'm waiting here, not daring to show any disrespect, and someone like you doesn't want to wait. If the Great Celestial is offended, then your whole family can scram out of this city!" The old man gave the middle-aged man a fierce stare. He took a servant's handkerchief that was covered in ice and wiped his forehead.

"Great Celestial is kind and is willing to lose time cultivating to travel the Great Sage Continent. Who doesn't know his name? I heard the city of Lin invited the Great Celestial and then seven children ended up being selected. Although three were sent back, four of them entered a celestial sect. Once one becomes a celestial, even chickens and dogs can rise to the heavens!

"This is what the celestial said: once one becomes a celestial, even chickens and dogs can rise to the heavens! If my grandson can enter a celestial sect, then I'm willing to give away all my wealth!" another old man muttered with an excited expression.

"That's right, the city of Lin's Li Yuanwai is my friend, and the Great Celestial stayed in his home. His granddaughter was already in her twenties and, according to the rumors, it was impossible for her to enter a sect. However, due to Li Yuanwai's plea, the Great Celestial still took her away!"

"I also heard about what the Great Celestial had said. Once one becomes a celestial, even chickens and dogs can rise to the heavens! This line had became very popular across the Great Sage Continent…"

The surrounding people all began to talk, and they seemed to envy those who got lucky.

Just as everyone was excitedly talking and forgot the heat, a gust of wind blew by. The wind caused these hundred people to feel cool, and they all looked over.

In the distance, a red umbrella hundreds of feet wide opened, and below it was a purple, bamboo chair. There were four burly men in golden robes carrying the chair.

Around the four burly men were dozens of children. They were holding treasure bottles, whisks, or shining jades as they walked over.

On the chair at the center sat a white-haired old man. He gave off the aura of a celestial and looked like a real celestial at a glance!

He was clearly difference from ordinary people. He wore a white robe, and although his hair was all white, he had skin as delicate as a baby's. At this moment, his eyes narrowed and a burst of light came from them.

"Celestial!"

"Great Celestial!"

"It's Great Celestial Jin!!" Seeing this, the hundred of people outside the city look excited and revealed feverish reverence. Those old fellows being supported by their servants pushed their servants away. They knelt down and began to excitedly worship.

"Great Celestial Jin Biao, help this mortal become a celestial! Great Celestial Jin Baio, descend to refine pills! Great Celestial Jin Biao, take our children to become celestials!" the four men holding the chair up shouted in unison.

Their voices seemed to fuse into one, and it seemed like they had practiced this a lot. At this moment, their voices spread out from the sky like celestial music to those below.

"Great Celestial Jin Biao, the immortal celestial! Great Celestial Jin Biao, mountain of the world! "Great Celestial Jin Biao, reappearance of a sage!" As the four big men roared, the children around them shouted one by one as well. Their voices continued to echo.

The old man on the seat revealed a kind face, but that kindness contained a sense of might as he looked at the kneeling people below. He raised his right hand and waved his sleeve.

With this, the world changed colors and the clouds in the sky scattered. The area within 10,000 kilometers was now clear sky!

This kind of change in the sky completely startled the mortals below and caused them to feel even more awe and excitement.

As he closed in, the white-haired old man revealed an undetectable flash of self-satisfaction. He had even fooled real celestials, and he had fooled far too many mortals in his life.

But although he was proud, he still had to do what he had to do perfectly - this was his own strict requirement for himself. He raised his left hand and waved once more.

An extremely luxurious palace appeared in the blue sky. Although it was only an illusion, under the sun at this time of day, it gave people the illusion that it was a celestial palace.

There were even several celestial cranes flying out from the celestial palace. As they flew around in the sky, gusts of wind blew into the earth.

The people below were all attracted by the strange scene above. They were also really far away, so they couldn't see the sweat appear on the old man's face. It seemed that this spell he created was a heavy load for him to cast.

When the mood had reached its peak, the old man stood up. He waved his hand and a thunder-like voice echoed. "Once one becomes a celestial, even chickens and dogs can rise to the heavens!"

The moment the voice echoed, all the mortals kneeling below became excited and muttered along with the old man.

"Once one become a celestial, even chickens and dogs can rise to the heavens!"

Outside the city, as the chair gradually descended from the sky, the white-haired old man smiled. The people kneeling in front slowly got up and were very excited to see the old man.

"Welcome, Great Celestial Jin Biao!"

"Welcome, Great Celestial Jin Biao!!"

"It's fine, this celestial has always been easy-going. My time is limited, so I will only stay there for three days. In three days, bring your children to me to see if they have the fate of becoming a celestial and I'll take them with me." The white-haired old man smiled and his words were gentle. However, the more he acted like this, the more he gave off the aura of a celestial.

The white-haired old man seemed to be used to these people's excited expressions. He smiled and felt a little proud in his heart.

"I, Jin Biaozi, left my village when I was only six or seven years old and cheated people along the way. So many years have passed and I have deceived so many people. I, Jin Biaozi, was born different from other people. Not only am I talented, but even without a teacher or sect, I learned cultivation on my own!

"People like me are very rare! But it was worth the effort of deceiving someone to transport me to the Great Sage Continent. The people here are simple and yearn to become celestials, which makes this place a treasure trove for people like me!!

"And most importantly, no one in the same line of work has opened shop here. All I had to do was make up one line: 'once one becomes a celestial, even chickens and dogs can rise to the heavens!' And my path has been smooth!" The old man smiled as he was greeted respectfully by the people of the city, and he entered the city!

At this moment, in the Great Sage Continent, tens of thousands of kilometers away from this city, ripples echoed in the sky and Wang Lin appeared. He looked around and his eyes lit up.

"This place is the Great Sage Continent! Where the Dong Lin Sect is located?"

"The Dong Lin Sect has always been mysterious among the nine sects and thirteen factions. I wonder if they have an Empyrean Exalt!" The tortoise shell and map jades Wang Lin had obtained had very little information about the Dong Lin Sect.

This was related to the fact that very few people from the sect would ever leave and communicate with other people.

"Since this sect is part of the nine sects and thirteen factions, it can't be average, but even if there are Empyrean Exalt cultivators, it is no problem." Wang Lin pondered and his divine sense spread out. Just as he was about to head toward the Dong Lin Sect, he suddenly stopped.

As his divine sense spread out, he felt a familiar fluctuation in a mortal city hundreds of thousands of kilometers away. He had placed this on the seals of all the incarnated people. He can't detect them from far away, but once he got close, he could sense the seals.

"This fluctuation, who could it be…" Wang Lin smiled and had a hint of expectation. It was impossible for him to know who it was, like when he found Zhou Yi and Qing Shuang.

He could only detect them. Unless he saw them with his eyes, it would be very difficult to see the person's identity.

After all, the seal had been placed on everyone at once, so there wasn't much difference between them.

He revealed a joyous smile. To meet an old friend in this foreign land would make Wang Lin happy, no matter who it was.

In a flash, he changed his idea of going to the Dong Lin Sect and flew toward the mortal city hundreds of thousands of kilometers away.

With his cultivation level, he could cross hundreds of thousands of kilometers in a flash. As he got closer to the mortal city, the feeling became even stronger. He arrived above the city and looked down to see a white-haired old man with the aura of a celestial inside the city. He revealed a strange expression.

This old man was the source of the seal fluctuation!

Even without the fluctuation, Wang Lin could immediately recognized this white-haired old man's familiar face!

"Liu Jinbiao!" Wang Lin's expression became even more strange and a smile appeared on the corner of his face.

"This Liu Jinbiao comprehended the dao of deception, and after reincarnating, he walked the same path…" With Wang Lin's insight and understanding of Liu Jinbiao, he immediately understood why Liu Jinbiao was surrounded by nearly 100 mortals.

Looking at Liu Jinbiao's hidden sense of pride and the mortals surrounding him, Wang Lin couldn't help but smile even wider. However, part of this smile was a bitter smile from a headache.

"Deceiving mortals… Liu Jinbiao was someone who could deceive cultivators, so why he is deceiving mortals? There are fluctuations of cultivation coming from his body; he has reached the Core Formation stage over the years.

"Using his cultivation to deceive mortals, I wonder what he is thinking." Wang Lin frowned as he watched and pondered a bit. He didn't immediately awaken Liu Jinbiao's memory but watched how he deceived them.

If Wang Lin didn't want others to notice him, very few people would see him.

Liu Jinbiao, who had entered the city, suddenly trembled and felt like something bad was going to happen. This feeling was sudden, and he had never felt it before. He carefully looked around and at the sky. He blinked and was very surprised.

"Strange, why did I suddenly have this kind of feeling… I felt like a child who saw their parents after doing something bad… Strange." Liu Jinbiao frowned and suppressed his doubt. Luckily, this feeling lasted only for an instant.

After entering the city, three days passed in a flash. During these three days, many famous people in the city had brought their children to see Liu Jinbiao. He looked at them with a kind gaze and left on the fourth day with five children.

Among them were three boys and two girls. The oldest was 13 and the youngest was eight.

During everyone's respectful and excited goodbyes, Liu Jinbiao brought the five children onto the chair and flew into the air.

During these three days, Wang Lin had watched Liu Jinbiao's actions, and he was frowning.

"What exactly is Liu Jinbiao doing? He didn't cheat any property, he only took five children with the slightest bit of talent… Although they are somewhat qualified, no sect would take them! If he has any evil intention, I will not spare him!" Wang Lin calmly followed Liu Jinbiao.

Liu Jinbiao was sitting on the chair with a joyous expression. His gaze occasionally swept by the five children with an undetectable sense of joy.

"I didn't expect this city to have five suitable people. Haha, this is not bad. I can definitely earn a lot!"

The five children became nervous after being glanced at by him, but at the same time, they were filled with expectation. They aspired to enter a sect and become celestials. This was not only their thoughts, but the dreams of their parents and loved ones.

Several days later, they arrived outside a mountain range. Liu Jinbiao stopped the chair and looked at his followers.

"You all, wait for me to return."

The four burly men and children all quickly nodded. The four burly men were at the Foundation Establishment stage, while those children were at the Qi Condensation stage. Most of them had been taught cultivation methods by Liu Jinbiao and had cultivated on their own.

Liu Jinbiao took the five children in a black wind and disappeared.

Wang Lin watched Liu Jinbiao fromthe sky. His expression was a bit gloomy as he followed.

The black wind rushed through the mountains for a while and then appeared in a remote valley. This valley was not large and there were a few caves created. Liu Jinbaio sat down and the five children sat across from him.

His eyes lit up as his gaze became serious and he looked at the five children before him.

The five children immediately became extremely nervous and pale as he looked at them. However, they gritted their teeth and didn't cry.

"Not bad. Actually, this old man didn't tell you the truth in front of your loved ones. Our talent is actually very bad and we barely qualify to cultivate. The reason this old man chose you was because your hearts determined!

"Cultivators aren't afraid of bad talent, and a determined heart is extremely important!"

The five children nervously looked at Liu Jinbiao and remained silent.

Wang Lin was also silently pondering. No one had noticed him as he watched Liu Jinbiao and waited for him to continue.

"Liu Jinbaio, if you cheat cultivators I don't care, but if you deceive these children… then I'll be disappointed!" Wang Lin thought to himself.

Liu Jinbiao suddenly said, "I'm a fraud!"

When his words came out, the five children were completely startled; even Wang Lin was shocked.

"I'm a con man. I lied to your loved ones and brought you all here!" Liu Jinbiao's expression didn't change as he spoke to the five children.

His words were too shocking, so the five children could not react right away. They stared dumbfoundedly at Liu Jinbiao.

"However…" Liu Jinbaio smiled as he looked around and continued speaking.

"However, I can allow you to enter the Great Sage Sect, but this matter requires you to make your own decisions. First, your talent isn't good enough to pass the tests set by the sect, so you won't be admitted as disciples. Although you have the qualifications to become cultivators, it would be too difficult to develop you.

"With my knowledge of the various sects of the Great Sage Continent, they won't accept you or waste their time on you. I'm not lying to you about this."

Liu Jinbiao paused when he got to this point.

Wang Lin watched this and pondered. He knew that Liu Jinbiao was right. With these children's talent, it would be difficult for them to catch the attention of the sects.

"But I have a method that allows you to deceive those who are assessing you to get you into the sect. It can even make your talent look extremely good!

"However, this is all fake. If you perform poorly after entering the sect, you will be found out. You will not face any life-threatening dangers and will likely not be expelled from the sect, but you will be forgotten.

"This is why I said talent is not important. What's important is for your heart to be determined!"

Liu Jinbaio continued to speak as he looked at the five children before him.

"And because your talent is pretty good, I can trade you all for the materials I need from the sect. The better your talent, the better the initial treatment you get, and the better the reward I will get. But someone with a large amount of talent has a higher chance of being exposed.

"I can help you cheat the heavens to cross the sea to get you all into a sect. After that, it's all on yourself, and me earning from it is just a matter of fact.

"However, all of you have to consider it carefully. If you don't agree, I'll erase your memory and send you back to your loved ones. If you agree, then choose what kind of talent you want to enter the sect with. Excellent, good, ordinary - these are the three options!

"I suggest you choose ordinary to enter the sect! After all, I plan to do business for a long time and don't want to be exposed too much and end up being hunted!"

After Liu Jinbiao spoke, he slapped the bag of holding on his waist and took out some peanuts. He began to peel them and eat.

Wang Lin revealed a bitter smile when he saw this. Liu Jinbiao was a con man in the past, and in this life, his deception skills seemed to be even better.

Among the five children, three were scared and chose to go home. However, a girl and a boy revealed determined expressions. The girl chose ordinary talent, while the boy chose good talent.

Liu Jinbiao gave the boy who had chosen good talent a profound look. Among the five, he had the best talent and his heart was determined. His family was not rich but ordinary, and Liu Jinbiao had only noticed by him by coincidence.

Liu Jinbiao nodded and erased the memories of the three children. The three children were sent out of the cave to outside the mountain, where his followers were. He also sent out a message to have his followers take the children back to the city to inform their relatives that they had failed to enter the sect.

Wang Lin watched as Liu Jinbiao took out two purple herbs. They had similar color, but one was darker than the other.

He pressed the herbs between the eyebrows of the two children. The herbs gave off a strange scent and looked extraordinary. After being pressed against their foreheads, it spread out under their skin like a net.

Staring at the herb, he could feel faint vitality coming from it. Although it was weak, it was extremely pure. If Wang Lin absorbed it, it would help him heal.

However, the vitality inside the herbs was too little. If used for healing, more than 10,000 would be required.

The reason the faint vitality was pure was because of the celestial energy coming from the herb. The vitality came from the small amount of celestial energy. Although it was faint, it caused Wang Lin's eyes to narrow.

He had seen this kind of herb before. He had been on the Immortal Astral Continent for a while and experienced a lot of things. He had seen a lot and even looked at a lot of jades about alchemy, but no matter how much he pondered, he couldn't think of something related to this herb.

But he could feel that these two herbs would cause no harm to the two children and could strengthen their bodies a lot. After Wang Lin observed for a bit more, he saw that after fusing with the herbs, the talent of the two child actually changed!

The darker herb formed a net inside the boy's body and completely hid his true talent. Then the herb turned into a good talent that masked over the boy's real talent.

With Wang Lin's cultivation level, he could naturally see through it, but if a second step cultivator looked, they would find it difficult to see. Only third step cultivators would see some clues, because the net the herb formed had completely fused with the child. Adding the celestial energy inside, it could really hide from the heavens and cross the sea.

This surprised Wang Lin greatly. He looked at the girl, and the same thing happened to her. She obtained an ordinary talent that was far better than her own talent.

"Items of fortune are extremely unpredictable…" Wang Lin pondered. This purple herb was extraordinary!

"But if Liu Jinbiao continues this, he will be hunted once he is found out…" Wang Lin secretly shook his head. There were a lot of sects on the Immortal Astral Continent, and there was no lack of third step cultivators. As for whether Liu Jinbiao would be found out before he could leave the Great Sage Sect, it would depend on his luck.

"He is very careful and didn't greedily force all the children. If he did, the risk of being exposed would increase along with the number of children." Wang Lin looked at the proud Liu Jinibiao and revealed a bitter smile.

After the two children fused with the herb, he revealed a proud expression. He looked at the children before him and his eyes almost shined.

He stood up and flew out of the cave with the two children to the south.

Shortly after, a mountain covered in clouds appeared before Liu Jinbiao. The mountain was extremely steep, and the roars of beast occasionally came out from it.

Liu Jinbiao looked at the mountain ahead and thought to himself, "I have been coming to the Great Sage Sect for a while and have gone to a lot of other sects. It is time to leave. After this last one, even if no one finds out, I should change my face, leave the Great Sage Continent, and go to another place.

"The large amount of pills and spells I have obtained should allow me to reach the Nascent Soul stage. Then I'll go to another continent and enter a small sect. I'll be a disciple for dozens to hundreds of years before going out to do business again." Liu Jinbiao took a deep breath and brought the two children to the peak.

Wang Lin was still following Liu Jinbiao. He watched him skillfully circle the mountain a few times before flying out alone. His eyes could barely hide his excitement.

After flying out from the mountain, Liu Jinbiao didn't hesitate and quickly left. Wang Lin took a glance and suddenly looked up. He saw a ripple echo in the sky and then suddenly disappear without a trace.

Ordinary cultivators couldn't detect it, but Wang Lin could see it clearly. It was someone divinating, causing the world to change.

And Liu Jinbiao was the center of this.

"Someone is divinating Liu Jinbiao's location!" There was a flash of coldness in his eyes. He looked at the ripples and his gaze pierced through, borrowing the divination power from the other side. He saw a magnificent palace with seven or eight second step cultivators respectfully stood there. There was a boy with his eyes closed, and behind him, an old man had his hand on the boy's head. The old man's other hand was forming seals.

A moment later, the old man suddenly opened his eyes and revealed a flash of coldness.

"I found that Jin Biaozi. He is hundreds of thousands of kilometers away. You all, quickly use the transfer array to capture him. Remember to not destroy his origin soul. I want to search his soul!" the old man said before throwing out a jade.

"Hold this jade and you can find that Jin Biaozi. As for this disciple… Kick him out to the outer sect and the rest will depend on his own efforts."

Wang Lin's eyes lit up and his divine sense retreated from the ripples. He looked at Liu Jinbiao, who hadn't noticed a thing, and shook his head with a sigh.

"Forget it. If he doesn't suffer a bit, he won't learn his lesson."

It didn't take long. Half an hour later, while Liu Jinbiao was flying, four figures appeared before him. These cultivators were the people Wang Lin had seen the sect send out to capture Liu Jinbiao.

The four of them had teleported hundreds of thousands of kilometers and tracked Liu Jinbiao down using the jade. They closed in on him.

When Liu Jinbiao saw this, his expression changed greatly. He knew that something was wrong, but he didn't escape immediately. He felt their powerful cultivation and couldn't escape at all.

His eyes turned and he moved aside as if he was making way. However, the four rays of light surrounded him and the four cultivators stared at Liu Jinbiao coldly.

Liu Jinbiao was extremely nervous, but he didn't reveal it at all. Instead, he frowned and coldly looked at the four of them.

"Four seniors, I wonder, why are you blocking Junior's path…" He was very calm, so calm that the four people sent to capture him couldn't help but be startled.

"Capture him!" The person leading the way looked at Liu Jinbiao carefully and waved his sleeve. A second step cultivator stepped out. A Core Formation cultivator like Liu Jinbiao couldn't resist at all.

Liu Jinbiao's face was still calm, but he smiled coldly. He was secretly panicking inside, but he quickly thought about this matter. Some sect must have noticed that something was abnormal.

Liu Jinbiao opened his eyes and coldly said, "Arrogant! Before you do anything, I'll go with you guys!"

The more calm he was. the more strange the four of them felt. The person who closed in on him didn't attack but stood behind Liu Jinbiao. He pushed Liu Jinbiao and then the four of them took him away.

"Your little sect dares to capture me? If I'm injured at all, my master will destroy your entire sect!" Liu Jinbiao sneered and didn't reveal any fear. He calmly followed the four cultivators and disappeared into the distance.

Wang Lin appeared after they were far away. He looked ahead and slightly shook his head.

"After being caught, he still tries to maintain his lie. This Liu Jinbiao… Who is this master he speaks of?" Wang Lin put on a strange expression and followed. These cultivators needed to use a transfer away, but for Wang Lin, a mere few hundred thousand kilometers only required one Spatial Bending.

After almost an hour, in the northern part of the Great Sage Sect, there was a valley. There were many palaces here, and a formation was protecting this place. It was an ordinary sect of the Great Sage Continent.

Liu Jinbiao was brought to a palace in this valley. Although his heart was trembling in fear, his expression was calm. There was even a cold smile of contempt on the corner of his mouth.

There was an old man sitting before him. It was this old man who had divinated Liu Jinbiao's location.

He looked at Liu Jinbiao with a cold gaze.

"You have guts to dare to deceive my Cloud Sect." The old man spoke slowly and his voice was filled with a sense of coldness.

"So what if I cheated you? A mere tiny Cloud Sect of the Great Sage Continent dares to capture me? You have guts as well!!" Liu Jinbiao's gaze didn't fluctuate as he looked at the old man.

The old man frowned.

"If I'm injured at all, my master will come immediately. Forget your tiny Cloud Sect, even the Great Sage Continent's Dong Lin Sect would have to greet my master with respect." Liu Jinbiao sneered as he spoke. His words contained a sense of confidence and his expression added credibility.

After the old man heard this, he suddenly laughed, but in his laughter, the sense of coldness became even stronger.

"Oh? Then who is your master?"

Liu Jinbiao's expression was proud as he said, "Grand Empyrean Gemini's follower, Empyrean Exalt Gu Ya!"

His calm expression and confident words startled the old man.

"What a joke. If you were really Empyrean Exalt Gu Ya's servant, you wouldn't be cheating people here and you wouldn't only be a Core Formation cultivator!" The old man didn't believe him at all.

Liu Jinbiao waved his sleeve and coldly said, "The dao of deception is my domain. As for my cultivation level, open your old eyes and look carefully. Is my cultivation level really only Core Formation?!"

However, at this moment, he was terrified in his heart, but he had deceived people for so many years that he had reached the second step of deception: to deceive himself. He had long deceived himself, and if he could deceive even himself, then he was not afraid others wouldn't believe him!

Wang Lin sat inside the palace and was not afraid that others would notice him. He smiled bitterly but also recalled the past.

After the old man heard this, his eyes narrowed and he looked at Liu Jinbiao carefully. With this, he felt like something was wrong. Liu Jinbiao was only at the Core Formation stage, but he found something that was hidden. It was an unspeakably ancient aura that seemed to have been around for a long time.

Liu Jinbiao looked at the old man and coldly said, "I know you're thinking of searching my soul, but I can tell you that before you finish, my master will come. What awaits your Cloud Sect is a sect-destruction disaster!"

"Even if Empyrean Exalt Gu Ya came, he would still have to speak reason. You cheated first!" The old man could not see through Liu Jinbiao. The other party was very calm, which was extremely rare. Unless he had a powerful backing, how could he be so calm?

"Cheat? This old man Liu Jinbiao cultivates the dao of deception - so what if I cheated your little Cloud Sect? Did I cheat any of your lives or treasures?

"I only brought some mortals that wanted to cultivate and traded them to you for some pills. Do you think I care about these pills?" Liu Jinbiao's eyes were filled with contempt. His right hand touched his bag of holding and a large amount of pills flew out until they formed a small hill.

"Take a good look. These dozens of pills came from your Cloud Sect. These were just collateral for me cultivating my dao of deception. Do you really think I care about these pills?" Liu Jinbiao laughed and waved his right hand. Those pills immediately shattered into dust.

This sudden scene startled the old man.

"Forget these pills, I even cheated a lot of treasures! But do you think I care?" Liu Jinbiao sneered again and touched his bag of holding. Dozens of treasures for Core Formation cultivators flew out. He waved his sleeves and they all shattered into pieces.

"I can tell you that I don't care about these things at all! If you dare to search my soul, I'll make sure your entire Cloud Sect is destroyed! Think for yourself, goodbye!" Liu Jinbiao sneered and turned around. He no longer looked at the startled old man and began walking out of the palace.

As he walked away, there was no cold sweat on his body and his heartbeat was normal. At this moment, even he believed himself, so how could he be scared?

After he walked out of the temple, the old man had a gloomy expression that constantly changed. He stared at the fragments of pills and treasures before him. At this moment, he lost his judgement of Liu Jinbiao's words.

He had never experienced this kind of thing before!

"Is what he said true or a lie? If it were a lie, how could he be so calm and also not care about all the pills and treasures he destroyed? Although they are all low level things, it is clear he cheated a lot...

"He has deceived people for so long and never died - there must be a reason!

"If what he says is true, I… I really can't provoke him. After all, what he said was correct. He didn't cheat any valuable treasures or lives, only some low rank pills…" The old man was startled for a while.

At this moment, Liu Jinbiao walked out of the temple, but the disciples of the Cloud Sect stopped him.

Wang Lin clearly saw all of this and couldn't help but be shocked. He thought that Liu Jinbiao would suffer a bit, but things had changed too quickly. Even Wang Lin couldn't help but admire Liu Jinbiao.

"This acting… Is too realistic..." Wang Lin smiled bitterly and shook his head.

The old man stared at Liu Jinbiao, who was standing outside the palace and was surrounded by the disciples of the Cloud Sect.

"If I knew it would be so complicated, I would have ignored him. Why even capture him at all… Although this matter sound credit it is also not credible. But if I just let him leave, it means I was scared by his words, and I would lose too much..." The old man gritted his teeth and was about to speak.

However, just at this moment, Liu Jinbiao turned around and his right hand touched his bag of holding. He took out a palm-sized wooden token and threw it at the old man.

Liu Jinbiao's expression was calm as he coldly said, "After seeing this, I give you three breaths to consider!"

The old man took the black wooden token, and after a glance, his expression changed. There were two clear words on this token!

Gu Ya!

"The material is ordinary; it is only an ordinary piece of wood. However, it contains a shocking aura that makes my heart tremble. This aura if filled with death, it is extraordinary!" The old man was suspicious before, but after seeing the wooden token, he was 70% to 80% confident that what Liu Jinbiao had said was true.

If Liu Jinbiao had taken out the token out right away, the old man would have been skeptical. However, after what Liu Jinbiao had said, the effect was very different!

"One… Two…" Liu Jinbiao slowly said. Before he said "three," the old man gritted his teeth and threw the wooden token back at Liu Jinbiao. Liu Jinbiao caught the token and a gloomy voice echoed in his ears.

"Open the gate and let him… leave!"

All the Cloud Sect disciples outside the place were startled. The Cloud Sect was the lowest rank sect in the Great Sage Continent. They only had one third step cultivator, a Nirvana Void old ancestor who was in closed door cultivation year-round.

As for the old man, he was only at the Heaven's Blight stage. He was not willing to gamble for a small thing like this.

Liu Jinbiao's expression remained neutral and he let out a cold snort in his heart. He flew out from the Cloud Sect, and only when he was far away did he land in an old forest deep in the mountains.

The moment Liu Jinbiao landed, his face immediately turned pale. He could no longer control his body and began to shake. He was filled with a lingering sense of fear.

"What danger!! Damn it, I almost lost my life in this Great Sage Continent!" Liu Jinbiao took a deep breath and felt his heart ache.

"Such misfortune about so many pills… Alas, I was too immersed in my role and even believed that those pills were not worth my time… This… Too many pills were destroyed!!" Liu Jinbiao thought about how he had casually thrown them out and felt even more regret.

"I should had taken out less… It's over, I wasted all these years… Alas, I'll just get them back again. I, Liu Jinbiao, was born different and will get them back!" He took a deep breath and sat down to calm himself.

However, just at this moment, a gentle voice came from behind him.

"You have already completed the second step of deception."

This voice appeared so suddenly, it caused Liu Jinbiao to tremble. However, he immediately calmed down and looked behind him coldly. He saw a young man with white hair wearing white clothes looking at him.

"It looks like your Cloud Sect doesn't want to live!" Liu Jinbiao slowly said, but deep down, the person before him gave him an indescribable feeling. Even after he deceived himself, he still felt fear.

"I'm not from the Cloud Sect." Wang Lin smiled as he looked at Liu Jinbiao and sat down. He waved his hand to take out a wine jug and took a sip.

"No matter where you come from, if you dare to hurt me at all, my master will immediately come and destroy you!" Liu Jinbiao's voice trembled and he subconsciously retreated a few steps. His body was trembling even though he was using the second step of deception, and it felt like his deception was going to collapse. It was as if he could not deceive the person before him.

He didn't even have this feeling back at the Cloud Sect. In fact, he had never felt this in his life. As he trembled, he leaned against a tree and stared at Wang Lin.

"My master is Grand Empyrean Gemini's follower, Empyrean Exalt Gu Ya. I practice the dao of deception with the approval of my master. I… I have my master's token!!" Liu Jinbiao trembled as he took out the black, wooden token. As he was about to wave it, Wang Lin's hand reached out and the wooden token flew into Wang Lin's hand.

Wang Lin looked at it a few times and smiled as he said, "This is a good fake. You must have deceived yourself using the second step of deception to tell yourself over and over that you are Empyrean Exalt Gu Ya before writing it.

"As for the aura on the wooden token… This powerful death aura, you must have found the body of a powerful cultivator. You placed the token next to the body for many years and the shocking death aura gathered on it!"

With every word Wang Lin said, Liu Jinbiao's face turned even more pale. As Wang Lin smiled at him, Liu Jinbiao felt his mind rumble. The second step of deception, to deceive oneself, collapsed and he fell to the ground.

This kind of thing was beyond his imagination. He had cheated for so many years, but this was the first time someone else had seen through him completely. This wasn't even the important part - the important part was that this person understood the dao of deception he had comprehended.

And he even knew the second step of the dao of deception! Knew that the second step of deception was to deceive oneself.

Even looking at the party's smile, Liu Jinbiao felt like he was going to lose his mind. It was as if there was a profound sense of fear coming from his soul.

This feeling made Wang Lin even more familiar the more he looked at him; it was as if he had met Wang Lin somewhere before...

"You… Who are you!?!" His body was trembling and his eyes were filled with indescribable fear.

"Signs of breaking your own seal…" Wang Lin was surprised. He clearly saw that the seal on Liu Jinbiao's memory was loosening.

"It looks like the seal on the memories of their previous lives can break on their own with stimulation without me breaking it…" Wang Lin pondered.

"How do you know about my dao of deception? You… Who are you?" Liu Jinbiao's body trembled. The fear he felt overlapped with the fear in his soul. It was as if he had experienced this a long time ago.

"You told me personally." Wang Lin took a sip of wine.

"Impossible!! My master is Empyrean Exalt Gu Ya. I… I… If you hurt me, you will die! Besides, I have never seen you or cheated you, what do you want with me…" The fear in Liu Jinbiao's eyes became even stronger until even his words became a mess.

"Unless… Unless you're someone who walks the same path?" Liu Jinbiao didn't know what to think as he stared at Wang Lin

"Your name is Liu Jinbiao and my name is Wang Lin. Can you remember?" Wang Lin put down the wine jug and looked at Liu Jinbiao.

"Wang Lin… Wang Lin… Very familiar…" Liu Jinbiao's eyes were filled with confusion and he seemed to be struggling. Soon, he began to tremble, and pain appeared on his face.

"It looks like he can't break the seal on his own. He can't and Zhou Yi couldn't. I wonder if there is anyone who can break it themselves." Wang Lin sighed. He couldn't bear to see Liu Jinbiao suffer. He raised his finger and pointed to between Liu Jinbiao's eyebrows.

With this, a thunderous rumble echoed in Liu Jinbiao's mind as if millions of bolts of thunder had exploded at once.

His vision became blurry and he saw this hundreds of years of life. Him using his dao of deception again and again...

"Great Celestial Jin Biao, immortal celestial! This is pretty good. In the future, all of you will shout like this. This old man's name is Liu; from now on, I'll be called Liu Jinbiao. It's a domineering name!

"Once one becomes a celestial, even chickens and dogs can rise to the heavens! Haha, this was created by me. With this, I'll become famous across the Great Sage Continent and make a killing!

"Ah, it is best not to stay here for long. It's best for me to go to the Great Sage Continent…

"This celestial has reincarnated and has naturally taken on the appearance of a child. How can mortals like you understand this?

"Eh, you mortals are very interesting. You kneel before a celestial not to become a celestial but to borrow the power of a celestial to become a king? This matter… is simple!

"Alas, perhaps I was a big fraud in my previous life. Otherwise, how could I know how to cheat people the moment I understood the world around me…

"You look like a thief and can't be a good person - what is your name? What, you feel that you should be called Xu Liguo? What do you think your name should be? Forget it, this celestial will help you calculate your fortune. Go to the Central Continent, yes, the Central Continent. There you will meet your fortune.

"This is the first time this celestial has descended into the mortal world, but your ancestors were virtuous. Forget it, I'll live here and help you guys.

"Hmph, hmph, I'm only seven years old, but I have cheated almost everyone. Its looks like I need to leave and develop elsewhere…

"Eh, little brother, this candy is pretty good; how about letting me have a bite…" His last memory was when he was four years old and he tried to cheat the Lin family's kid's candy.

The memories of the past echoed in his mind. Thunderous rumbles echoed as a vortex devoured all these memories. As the rumbles became even more intense, he saw his other life.

He saw himself struggle to cultivate and slowly discover the dao of deception. He found a treasure that made him almost invisible, but he ended up losing it to a cultivator named Wang Lin...

Countless years after, he followed that person until he reincarnated.

He remembered his good friend Xu Liguo. Even though Xu Liguo had done some things that made him very uncomfortable, they both had the same bad personality and thus became good friends.

The memories of the two lives gradually overlapped until Liu Jinbiao's vision was no longer blurry. He looked at Wang Lin, who was drinking wine, and tears flowed down.

All of this was so unreal, as if it was just a dream. When he closed his eyes, he was still in the dream world, and when he opened them, it all felt like an unforgettable dream. Even though he was awake now, there was still a sense of confusion.

However, this confusion immediately dissipated after he saw Wang Lin.

"Mast… Master…" Liu Jinbiao's eyes were filled with excitement. Even though he had cheated a lot of things, he had never felt this kind of excitement that came from his heart.

Wang Lin also revealed a happy smile. He laughed as he looked at Liu Jinbiao and passed over the wine in his hand.

"Drink a mouthful of wine for our meeting on the Immortal Astral Continent."

Liu Jinbiao's trembling left hand took the jug and he drank a big mouthful. The spicy wine entered his belly and warmed his body. It caused him to tremble, and he became focused.

Liu Jinbiao looked at the jug in his hand as he muttered, "I originally thought my dao of deception had already reached the peak of the second step. I could instantly deceive myself to believe anything.

"But this dream that wasn't like a dream, reincarnation, made me understand this was the real peak of the second step of deception… If I had understood this then, before I reincarnated, I would had deceived myself to become a good person and then, even after reincarnation, I would've continued to be one…" Liu Jinbiao shook his head as he looked at Wang Lin. The excitement in his eyes was slowly hidden and he bowed at Wang Lin.

"Why worship me?" Wang Lin smiled and looked at Liu Jinbiao.

"Master gave me the gift of reincarnation, so I have to worship you!

"Master allowed me to understand the real dao of deception through reincarnation, so I must worship you!"

"I'm not your master. Before you reincarnated you, were free, and you are still free after reincarnation." Wang Lin shook his head.

"This… This Immortal Astral Continent is too dangerous. It is better to follow Master…" Liu Jinbiao smiled bitterly.

Wang Lin laughed and looked at Liu Jinbiao. His laughter was even more joyous.

"Forget it, follow me. Of course I'll protect you!" Wang Lin waved his sleeve and a gentle wind took him and Liu Jinbiao into the sky.

"I'm going to the Dong Lin Sect, come with me. Now that your memories have recovered, you will quickly recover to your previous cultivation level."

Liu Jinbiao hesitated and then whispered, "Master, in my memory of this life, I seem to have met… Xu Liguo."

"Oh?" Wang Lin suddenly stopped and looked at Liu Jinbiao.

"Where did you meet him?"

"Eh… I hadn't recovered my memories back then. In the Heaven Water Continent in the Eastern Continent, I saw an extremely vicious mountain bandit who claimed his name should be Xu Liguo. Back then, I was famous in the area… Oh, not that famous, not that famous.

"He invited me up the mountain and waited on me to give him some pointers. I randomly gave him some pointers and told him to go to the Central Continent…" As Liu Jinbiao spoke, he became rather embarrassed.

Liu Jinbiao added, "This was hundreds of years ago…"

Wang Lin silently pondered for a moment. The image of Xu Liguo trying to flatter him appeared in his mind and a smile slowly appeared on the corner of his face.

"With Xu Liguo's character, he will not suffer. If he is still around, then he must have met his fortune. I'm going to go to the Central Continent later. If possible, let's see if we meet him.

"If I can really meet him, I wonder what expression he will have when he sees me." Wang Lin's smile became even wider.

Liu Jinbiao chuckled on the side and secretly thought that he was the first one to follow his master after reincarnation. Now that Xu Liugo was number two, he would have to take advantage of him before he recovered his memories, to pay him back for what happened in the cave world...

"Who let him always use the fact that he was the first to follow Master to bully me?" As Liu Jinbiao thought about it, he became excited.

Liu Jinbiao and Situ Nan were not familiar with each other. Deep in his memories, he had deceived a guy who wanted to become king, but he had long forgotten...

With Liu Jinbiao, Wang Lin flew toward the Dong Lin Sect.

The Dong Lin Sect, the number one sect of the Great Sage Continent and one of the nine sects and thirteen factions. It was always very mysterious, and outsiders rarely knew how deep the sect was hidden.

Wang Lin had gone to the Dong Lin Sect in the cave world before. At this moment, he was closing in on the Dong Lin Sect. As he looked at the earth below, the mountains of the Dong Lin Sect looked vaguely familiar.

The location of the Dong Lin Sect was very ordinary and the protection formation could not stop Wang Lin.

Wang Lin entered the Dong Lin Sect with Liu Jinbiao. He didn't immediately go to the Dong Lin Pool but to where the Seven-Colored Celestial Sovereign, Su Dao, had lived.

Under the small mountain, Wang Lin heard the sound of a river flowing and he saw the clear river. There were a lot of fishes inside the river, and there was a child fetching water.

Following the steps, Wang Lin walked up the mountain, and Liu Jinbiao followed. There were cultivators who walked by, but they didn't notice the two of them. It was as if they didn't belong in the same space.

When Wang Lin stepped onto the top of the mountain, dark clouds appeared in the sky and rain began to fall. The rain poured down onto the roof of the temple ahead.

The rain caused ripples to echo across the green stone slab as water splattered. Water vapor seemed to rise, but it dissipated in mid-air.

This scene was very similar to the illusion back then… Wang Lin felt an unspeakable feeling, as if he had undergone a change under this rain.

As Wang Lin stood under the rain, he closed his eyes and remained motionless.
