Chapter 1040: Alliance’s Secret – She Doesn’t Need Her Rescue (Third Update)

“Kunxu Saintess!!” Heavenly Fate Child’s expression immediately turned solemn. He retreated a few steps, holding his trident, but his gaze swept over to the old man in mid-air.

“Lu Yundao!” Heavenly Fate Child frowned and said in a deep voice, “Are you, from the Kunxu Realm, also planning to get involved?!”

The old man glanced at Heavenly Fate Child, then at the Ancient Demon Taga, whose expression was gloomy in mid-air. Especially when looking at Ancient Demon Taga, there was a look of reminiscence in his eyes.

“My goal is him!” The old man sighed softly and walked towards Ancient Demon Taga.

The Ancient Demon’s eyes flickered with Demonic Flame as he stared at the old man, a solemn expression gradually appearing in his eyes. He swept the saber behind his right hand and said eerily, “So it’s you! I didn’t expect you to still be alive!”

“I should have died, but fortunately, Brother Qing Lin lent a hand back then. Although there’s a deep enmity between us, since he saved me once, I owe him a favor. Today, I will repay that favor through you!” The old man said, walking step by step towards the Ancient Demon. His expression was calm, as if this Ancient Demon couldn’t even be taken seriously.

Taga roared and his body swayed, immediately stirring up monstrous black mist that transformed into a demonic shadow. As his body moved, the demonic shadow roared and opened its mouth, devouring towards the old man.

In an instant, the area where the Ancient Demon and the old man were located was enveloped by a black mist. Within it, the Ancient Demon’s roars continuously echoed, and rumbling sounds reverberated.

Mu Bingmei placed Wang Lin down beside her, then flew up and headed straight for Heavenly Fate Child.

Heavenly Fate Child frowned, retreated a few steps, and calmly said, “Kunxu Saintess, this old man does not wish to be an enemy of your Kunxu Realm. This Wang Lin is neither kin nor acquaintance of yours. If I want to kill him, no one can stop me.”

“You are not qualified to kill him!” Mu Bingmei shook her head. As she flew closer, she waved her right hand, and immediately, a field of illusory shadows spread out. Each of these illusory shadows was an identical Clone of Mu Bingmei!

However, there were eight of these Clones!

“Spirit Void Lock Origin, Refine Heaven Transform Qi!” Mu Bingmei’s voice was calm, but the moment her words left her mouth, her eight Clones immediately formed hand seals. A vast heaven and earth origin energy instantly surged from the sky, forming a pillar of Origin Qi that descended with a thunderous roar.

A strange light appeared in Heavenly Fate Child’s eyes. His lips moved slightly, and immediately, the pillar of Origin Qi descending from the sky showed signs of trembling.

Mu Bingmei shook her head and said softly, “Your Heavenly Fate Art is useless against me!” As she spoke, she made a grasping motion in the Void Realm with her right hand, and immediately, endless heaven and earth origin energy gathered, forming a bamboo scroll in front of her. With a flick of her jade hand, the bamboo scroll unfurled in the air. The moment it opened, it emitted a seven-colored light that shot into the sky, and countless imprints flew out from within, encircling Mu Bingmei’s entire body.

“Although I am only in the First Heavenly Human Decay, all Divine Abilities within this Kunxu Star Domain cannot escape my control. If I don't want you to possess the heaven and earth origin energy within this Kunxu Star Domain, you won't be able to take even a bit!” Mu Bingmei pointed with her jade finger in front of her right hand, and immediately, the imprints encircling her body scattered outwards with a roar, directly disappearing into the heavens and earth.

At this instant, the entire heaven and earth, the entire starry sky, the unimaginable heaven and earth origin energy, suddenly underwent a frenzied transformation, all converging towards that pillar of Origin Qi.

“Seal, all external Origin Qi of Heavenly Fate Child!” Mu Bingmei stared at Heavenly Fate Child and spoke calmly. Although her voice was calm, it contained an undeniable authority!

At this moment, all the Origin Qi outside Heavenly Fate Child’s body suddenly pushed away, as if it was repelled by Heavenly Fate Child at this instant. Its dissipation was so fast that it was almost completely gone in an instant.

Only the Origin Qi within Heavenly Fate Child’s body, which he had refined, remained unaffected.

But this unbelievable Divine Ability surpassed the imagination of those around them. Even Heavenly Fate Child’s expression turned gloomy.

“I’ve long heard that within the Kunxu Realm, the Kunxu Saintess possesses immense Divine Abilities. Successive Kunxu Saintesses have all inherited from ancient times. Even when the Immortal Realm existed, their status was comparable to the Immortal Palace. Below the Four Great Immortal Realms are the Four Great Star Domains, and within each Star Domain, there is one person, belonging to a lineage inherited from the ancient Immortal Domain!

The abilities controlled by the Saintesses of the Four Great Star Domains differ. When this old man entered the Kunxu Realm to Cultivate, I heard many rumors about the Kunxu Saintess. Seeing it today, it is indeed true.”

Mu Bingmei said nothing, pointing her jade hand at the pillar of Origin Qi. Immediately, this pillar, which seemed to support the heavens and earth, quickly shrunk, becoming a short sword shimmering with crystalline light.

Holding the short sword, Mu Bingmei raised her head, her figure like a butterfly, flying straight towards Heavenly Fate Child. From beginning to end, she did not look at Wang Lin again. The complexity in her heart made her somewhat unsure how to face this familiar stranger.

No one could understand her thoughts, because even she herself was still confused… She only knew one thing for certain: she couldn't stand by and watch Wang Lin die, she couldn't remain indifferent when she saw others trying to kill Wang Lin.

In her heart, there was also a complex and heartbreaking thought… For this thought, she would never let anyone kill Wang Lin.

This thought had lingered in her heart for a very long time, permeating her mind. For several years, she would sometimes be startled awake during midnight meditation, standing alone on the highest peak of the Kunxu Realm, gazing at the dark sky. That heartbreaking feeling would endlessly grow, and that thought would often, at that moment, become uncontrollable for her.

For countless years, she had lived like this… Until today, she saw Wang Lin, and this complex thought, born of heartbreak, filled her entire mind.

She dared not look down at Wang Lin, who might still be unconscious. She… dared not.

She could only hold the short sword, carrying the complexity in her heart, and rush towards Heavenly Fate Child. It seemed that only by doing so could her heart find peace.

Heavenly Fate Child’s expression was gloomy. Although he knew a lot about the Kunxu Saintess, he hadn't expected her to be able to seal the heaven and earth origin energy. In this way, his Heavenly Fate Art was completely useless against her.

The Heavenly Fate Art was a technique for communicating with the heavens and earth, using this communication to exchange for invisible rules, making all these rules serve him!

With a cold snort, Heavenly Fate Child swept his trident, and it immediately transformed into three long rainbows, heading straight for Mu Bingmei.

As rumbling sounds echoed, Wang Lin opened his eyes on the ground, looking up at Mu Bingmei, who was battling Heavenly Fate Child. His eyes revealed deep complexity and an indelible trace of pain.

He had not expected to truly meet her so soon, and at such a time. Every time Wang Lin thought of Liu Mei, the pain far surpassed any injury his Physical Body could endure. That heart-wrenching pain made him unable to forget Wang Ping’s misery.

In silence, Wang Lin sat down cross-legged, taking a deep breath. At this moment, he was at the end of his Divine Abilities, seemingly without any further Divine Ability to contend with fate.

“I still have one Divine Ability!” Wang Lin looked up at the boundless starry sky beneath the sky that had been torn open by the sword storm. The rich heaven and earth origin energy, at the moment the sky of the Demon Spirit Land was torn open, enveloped a large area, permeating the Demon Spirit Land.

“Although the Azure Light Shield shattered into two, it didn’t disappear. It contains a life-saving strike from an eight-star Ancient God… Its power is unknown, but I imagine it won’t be weak!” In silence, Wang Lin’s right eye flickered with blue light. Within his pupil, the faint phantom of the Azure Light Shield appeared.

However, this Azure Light Shield was shattered into two halves. At this moment, within Wang Lin’s right eye, it was rapidly undergoing Fusion. But even without Fusion, the life-saving Divine Ability of that eight-star Ancient God could be unleashed, provided… enough Ancient God Power was available!

Regarding the problem of Ancient God Power, Wang Lin had previously had an idea: to separate his Clone from his main body, as he had done in the past, allowing his main body to remain dormant and continuously absorb, gradually enabling the Azure Light Shield to obtain enough Ancient God Power.

However, this would take a relatively long time. Originally, Wang Lin’s plan was to do this after leaving the Demon Spirit Land, but now, he was forced to find a shortcut!

But, any shortcut would require a price, and this price was something Wang Lin had to bear.

Wang Lin looked up at Liu Mei, who was fighting Heavenly Fate Child, his eyes filled with determination and decisiveness.

“I don’t need her to save me, and I certainly don’t want to owe this woman a favor!”

In silence, five Ancient God Star Points on Wang Lin’s forehead suddenly materialized. As they rapidly rotated, a large amount of Ancient God Power surged out, all pouring into his right eye and quickly merging into the Azure Light Shield.

As the Ancient God Power continuously merged, the blue light in Wang Lin’s right eye wildly intensified, becoming dazzling!

Using his own Ancient God Power to fulfill the Azure Light Shield’s requirements came at a great cost to Wang Lin. Although his stars didn't shatter, losing a large amount of Ancient God Power caused his fifth Ancient God Star Point to gradually blur, eventually becoming dim and lusterless.

However, as long as the Ancient God Star Point didn’t shatter, there would be a day for it to be replenished!

However, the Azure Light Shield required too much Ancient God Power. As the star points on Wang Lin’s forehead continuously rotated, more Ancient God Power merged into his right eye. Slowly, the fourth star point also dimmed.

The blue light in Wang Lin’s right eye intensified, almost covering a thousand-zhang radius around him. Even Mu Bingmei and Heavenly Fate Child, who were fighting above, noticed this strange blue light.

The rotation of his glabella accelerated. The third Ancient God Star dimmed, the second also dimmed, and finally, the last remaining one quickly lost its luster, becoming dim.

But at this instant, the blue light in Wang Lin’s right eye shot up like countless sharp swords. Wherever his right eye looked, the hundred-li ground that had been stirred up by Heavenly Fate Child’s Divine Ability and rushed into the clouds, at the moment his gaze fell upon it, immediately let out a rumbling roar, unable to withstand Wang Lin’s gaze, and collapsed with a crash!

It’s the third update. Since writing renegade immortal, Er Gen has never pushed himself this hard. The ashtray is full of cigarette butts, the whole room is filled with smoke, and even the air I breathe contains a lot of smoke.

After finishing this chapter, I feel utterly exhausted. I chugged all the Red Bull. I can’t see a mirror, but if I could, I would definitely see that my eyes are red!!!

Please wait for my fourth update!
