Chapter 1102: Peak of the Cloud Sea, Essence Soul

The voice sounded as if it came from the heavens and earth, ethereal and indistinct, as if near the ear, yet also far away. But listening closely, it was actually inside her mind.

A very simple word, a very calm voice, but landing in Sun Yun's mind, it caused her body to tremble suddenly. It was as if the world around her collapsed, forming countless unimaginable threads that wrapped around her body, causing Sun Yun's Physical Body, Primordial Spirit, and even the Qi within her to freeze in that instant.

Even her thoughts could not function at all, as if preserved in a world of a previous life.

Wang Lin's figure appeared before Sun Yun.

Sun Yun, sitting cross-legged, her graceful body hidden beneath her robes was very conspicuous at this moment. There was even a faint fragrance in the room coming from Sun Yun's body.

Her expression still retained the previous determination, motionless.

Taking the black Medicinal Pill from Sun Yun's hand, Wang Lin looked at it carefully. The color of this Medicinal Pill was like the source of all darkness in the world; one glance at it seemed as if one's mind could be sucked away.

"What a peculiar Medicinal Pill!" Wang Lin muttered to himself. His Divine Sense swept over the Medicinal Pill, and a flash of calculation appeared in his eyes. Wang Lin's knowledge of Alchemy was far weaker than his knowledge of Restrictions, but his cultivation was heaven-defying. His Divine Sense permeated the Medicinal Pill, analyzing the structure of the medicinal herbs within.

However, the vast majority of them were things he did not recognize. More importantly, he felt a fluctuation of a Soul within this Medicinal Pill.

"Interesting!" Wang Lin's eyes flashed with brilliance. He looked at the Medicinal Pill again, confirming his feeling was correct. There was indeed a Soul fluctuation within this Medicinal Pill. This Soul fluctuation was not strong, but it was extremely tenacious.

Closing his eyes, Wang Lin had a feeling that what he was holding was not a Medicinal Pill, but the Essence Soul of a Vicious Beast! The appearance of this Essence Soul was like an ape, extremely violent, struggling wildly in his hand. However, there were too many Seals on the ape's body, preventing it from struggling free.

Opening his eyes, all illusions vanished. Wang Lin placed the Medicinal Pill back between Sun Yun's fingers, stepped back a few paces, and pointed forward with his right hand.

Immediately, the invisible threads wrapped around Sun Yun's body dissipated. Sun Yun's body trembled, and she returned to normal. To her, all of this felt like a mere instant, as if her past life and present life had overlapped.

Wang Lin's cultivation was far, far higher than hers. Under the Body Fixing Art, Sun Yun did not even have the qualifications to notice the abnormality. Maintaining her previous posture, eyes filled with determination, she swallowed the Medicinal Pill.

Wang Lin stood behind her, watching calmly.

Sun Yun did not notice at all that an extra person had appeared behind her. After swallowing the Medicinal Pill, her complexion immediately flushed, faintly revealing pain. Fragrant sweat seeped from her forehead, and soon her clothes were soaked with sweat, clinging to her body.

Looking from behind, Wang Lin clearly saw the graceful arc of the woman's waist and hips as she sat cross-legged. Sun Yun's complexion became increasingly red. With her eyes closed, she clearly felt as if a ball of fire was burning within her body.

This fire burned her Primordial Spirit. Gradually, a Golden-Eyed Black Ape materialized within her mind. This Golden-Eyed Black Ape had a massive body, filled with vicious flames, roaring and howling within her mind, charging straight at her Primordial Spirit.

Sun Yun's mind was also filled with flames at this moment. Her Primordial Spirit had already been injured before, and now it was in great pain within the flames. However, she did not retreat, but instead tangled with the Golden-Eyed Black Ape. Her mind was like a battlefield. The battle between her Primordial Spirit and the Black Ape was like a life-or-death struggle. The roaring Black Ape seemed to want to tear apart her Primordial Spirit, tear apart Sun Yun's Physical Body, and no longer endure the burning of the flames, wanting to break free.

But Sun Yun's Primordial Spirit held onto the Black Ape tightly, allowing the flames to burn herself while simultaneously rapidly refining the Black Ape, as if she would not be satisfied unless she refined it.

However, the Black Ape was extremely powerful. The speed at which it was refined within Sun Yun's mind was lower than the speed at which Sun Yun's own Primordial Spirit was being burned by the flames. As a result, Sun Yun's Primordial Spirit gradually retreated step by step, and her physical complexion was already flushed red, even trembling.

The Life-Entering Soul-Separating Pill; swallowing it leaves only a thread of vitality. Sun Yun knew this clearly. If she hadn't been anxious to achieve a Breakthrough in cultivation so she could do her utmost to help her Master, she would never have swallowed this Medicinal Pill easily.

Her Master had shown her great kindness. For her Master, she could spare nothing!

Seeing that her Primordial Spirit had been forced into a desperate situation by the Black Ape, and the Black Ape had only been refined by less than half, with one pounce, it was about to tear apart Sun Yun's Primordial Spirit.

Just at this moment, Wang Lin raised his right hand. He wanted to carefully observe how the Medicinal Pill took effect. If Sun Yun failed, there would be no opportunity to observe further.

"Forget it, I will grant you, little girl, a stroke of fortune!" Wang Lin shook his head. His right index finger pointed at Sun Yun's heavenly spirit. With that one point, Wang Lin's Divine Sense moved suddenly, entering directly into Sun Yun's mind.

Within Sun Yun's mind, her Primordial Spirit retreated continuously, faintly revealing despair. Seeing the Black Ape pouncing, at this very instant, a figure in white suddenly walked into her mind.

She could not see the appearance of this figure in white, only the white hair fluttering.

Even before she could be shocked as to why this white-clothed, white-haired person would appear in her mind, Sun Yun's Primordial Spirit suddenly trembled, looking forward in disbelief.

She saw that after the white-haired figure appeared, he pointed casually with his right hand. Immediately, the pouncing Black Ape let out a miserable shriek, its body retreating rapidly. Bursts of booming sounds came from within the Black Ape's body, and its body suddenly collapsed, swallowed by the flames exploding all around, and it was crazily refined.

Sun Yun was stunned. The grace of that finger shocked her. She could not describe that finger, only feeling that at that moment, this finger seemed to replace her entire mind, enough to shock the heavens and earth. Under that finger, it seemed as if the heavens and earth would tremble, and the firmament would collapse.

She had seen her Master, Lü Yanfei, display Divine Abilities, but at this moment, she clearly knew that even her Master could not unfold such an earth-shaking finger. Even her Master, under this finger, would probably be defeated and perish!

She had even seen her Grandmaster, who had already returned to the void, display Divine Abilities, but even for her Grandmaster, she felt it would be difficult to display such a Divine Ability, especially the casual movement of that white-haired person, which seemed indifferent, yet it shook her mind.

The white-haired person seemed to turn and glance at Sun Yun, then with one step, moved far away from her mind and disappeared. What remained in Sun Yun's eyes was only that head of white hair, clearly imprinted in her heart.

The Black Ape was refined by the flames in her mind, forming a strange Soul Power. In this instant, it crazily merged into Sun Yun's Primordial Spirit, making her unable to think about the white hair remaining in her eyes. As she continuously absorbed the Soul Power, Sun Yun gradually seemed to enter a strange state similar to the Beginning Realm.

In this strange state, sections of understanding regarding the Dao, and enlightenment regarding the heavens and earth, came from that Soul Power and merged into her spirit. The Black Ape was not an ordinary Vicious Beast, but a Spirit Beast unique to the Cloud Sea Star Domain. This type of Spirit Beast, like humans, also cultivated the Dao and had insights into the heavens and earth.

Moreover, with the advantage of its long natural Lifespan, its enlightenment regarding the heavens and earth was much deeper than that of Cultivators. This Black Ape had already lived for more than three thousand years. Taking its Soul and combining it with the art of Alchemy, it was transformed into a Life-Entering Soul-Separating Pill!

Not knowing how much time had passed, Sun Yun slowly opened her eyes. A bright light appeared in her eyes, and a trace of Yang Solid Realm aura circled outside her body. Although she had not yet reached Yang Solid, she had already opened the door to entering Yang Solid. Given time to integrate her previous insights, she would be able to truly become a Yang Solid Cultivator!

Sun Yun turned her head sharply to look behind her, but could not see any figure. In the entire room, there was only her. However, she could not forget the grace of that finger beneath that head of white hair.

After a moment of silence, Sun Yun's face revealed a dimness. She stared blankly ahead, and the white hair in her mind could not be dispelled. Faintly, she had a woman's intuition, not as a Cultivator, but as a woman, that she seemed to… have seen this figure before…

"Is it an illusion… white hair… white hair…" Sun Yun's eyes gradually brightened again. She thought of what her Master had said, the words her Grandmaster spoke after displaying the Spirit-Choosing Divine Ability before returning to the void.

"Northern Region… white hair…" Sun Yun's full chest heaved. She immediately walked out of the room, transforming into a long rainbow as she headed straight for her Master's bedchamber in the Southern Mountain Range.

Wang Lin stood by the window, watching that long rainbow in the dark night sky gradually fade into the distance, his eyes revealing understanding.

"I didn't expect… that in this Cloud Sea Star Domain, such a Medicinal Pill actually exists… Does this not mean that the more powerful the Spirit Beast, the more its Soul helps with the understanding of Concepts… This point is completely different from the Thunder and Rain worlds." While pondering, Wang Lin's expression suddenly stirred. He thought of the Essence Soul that Mo Zhi had sent over at the Vermilion Bird Saint Sect, which his Master had refined…

At this very moment, within the Cloud Sea fifth-tier Star Domain, in a thick star mist not far from the Moro Continent, a black Vicious Beast, about a hundred zhang in size and shaped like a tadpole, was flying slowly.

This Vicious Beast's massive head occupied more than half of its body. Its mouth, like a scar, opened from time to time, as if devouring the star mist, revealing grim teeth and bloodthirsty vicious flames. Its tail behind it was thin and long, swaying slowly.

Standing on its head were two people. The person in front was a young man in purple robes, handsome in appearance, but with an aura of evil covering him, making him look full of violence.

Behind the young man followed an old man. He stood there respectfully, his expression completely calm, only occasionally looking at the young man with eyes revealing doting affection.

"This Young Sect Master will not only make that Lü Yanfei a concubine Cauldron, but will also make this Guiyuan Sect my bedchamber! Uncle Song, how much certainty do you have?"

"If that old Daoist hadn't died, this old man would have no certainty at all, but right now, ten percent!" The old man's tone was calm, a cold light flashing in his eyes.

The young man laughed aloud upon hearing this, licked his lips, and not knowing what he was thinking of, a lewd expression appeared on his face.
