Chapter 1155: Peak of the Cloud Sea, Seven-Colored Nail
The silver-robed woman withdrew her gaze after a long while, her eyes filled with even deeper confusion. She vaguely seemed to recall something, but it was very blurry. In silence, she raised her jade hand and, following her hazy memory, waved it forward. Immediately, a faint light flickered, transforming into a Restriction that landed at the entrance of the Immortal Cave.
If Wang Lin had been conscious, his expression would have certainly frozen upon seeing this scene. This Restriction was actually a Life-Death Restriction! And judging by her technique, it subtly surpassed that of the Old Woman in Green Robes, being extremely proficient.
Wang Lin did not remain unconscious for too long. After several hours, he opened his eyes. He paused when his gaze fell upon the Immortal Cave entrance, then glanced at the silver-robed woman, but said nothing more. He sat down cross-legged and began to meditate with closed eyes.
Time slowly passed, and in a blink of an eye, three days had gone by.
During these three days, the outside world was utterly calm, without the slightest ripple, as if all the Cultivators currently in the Seven-Colored Realm were seizing the time to heal their injuries.
Three days later, Wang Lin's complexion not only hadn't recovered but had grown even paler. A seven-colored light faintly emanated from his right shoulder. The wound had healed, but at the shoulder bone beneath the wound, the seven-colored nail was firmly embedded in his bone, causing the bone to constantly shatter, yet the Ancient God's powerful regenerative ability healed the shattered parts.
This cycle, repeated endlessly, brought Wang Lin immense pain.
Even more serious was that this seven-colored nail was not only embedded in his bone, but Wang Lin's Primordial Spirit also seemed to be pinned, operating slowly and weakly.
If it were only this, it would be fine, but Wang Lin was shocked to discover that the seven-colored nail was continuously absorbing his vitality, as if it would not stop until it had completely drained him dry.
"What kind of Magic Treasure is this, to possess such power that even a void nirvana Iron Sword was broken in half!" Wang Lin was heartbroken. That void nirvana Iron Sword had accompanied him for many years, slaying countless foes, extremely sharp, yet here in the Seven-Colored Realm, it was shattered.
"And the beads Cang Songzi threw out, each one could summon a Divine Ability within this Seven-Colored Realm, extremely bizarre and unpredictable. Even a finger of heavenly fate appeared within them…" Wang Lin endured the severe pain, his eyes filled with thought.
He recalled the scene where the Heavenly Fate Child's battle spirit appeared, looked up at the sky, and seemed lost.
"This place must have some connection with Heavenly Fate Child…"
After a moment of silence, a cold light flashed in Wang Lin's eyes.
"However, Cang Songzi must also be severely injured. This person's Physical Body collapsed under the Spirit Command Seal, with only his Primordial Spirit escaping. He was wounded by the Iron Sword and consumed a large number of Magic Treasures. As long as I recover from my injuries quickly, the next time we meet, he will surely die!
And that Old Woman in Green Robes, she is trapped within the Formation. Even if she is proficient in the art of Life-Death Restrictions, it contains my Heart-Shattering Restriction, so it will be far from simple for her to get out. Even if she forces her way out, she will definitely be severely injured!
And Cloud Soul Child, this person was teleported in and had his position changed, so I don't know where he is exactly. However, this place is full of dangers, and random teleportation is extremely perilous. It's likely he can't even take care of himself right now.
These three were all calculated by me. Only Chen Tianjun of the Beast Taming Sect left early. Although I sensed the dissipation of his Divine Ability fluctuations along the way, it's hard to prove he's dead… Everyone here is calculating each other, unwilling to let others leave safely with treasures. The saying 'man has no intention to harm a tiger, but the tiger has the intention to harm man' perfectly describes this. If one is always passive, they will ultimately be calculated by others." Wang Lin's eyes flickered. He had long seen through all of this, which is why he acted continuously, first making Cloud Soul Child teleport to another location, then trapping the Old Woman in Green Robes with a Formation, and leaving Cang Songzi to fight with him.
As he pondered, a sharp pain once again shot through Wang Lin's right shoulder. Sweat beaded on his forehead, and a decisive look appeared in his eyes. He raised his left hand and slashed at his right shoulder, immediately creating a wound. Amidst the profuse bleeding, the wound continuously expanded, eventually revealing the seven-colored nail embedded in the bone below!
In an instant, a seven-colored glow filled the entire Immortal Cave. Xu Ligou licked his lips, gazing at Wang Lin, and thought to himself, "The Evil Star is indeed an Evil Star. He's not only ruthless to others but to himself as well."
Taking a deep breath, Wang Lin gritted his teeth and swiftly grabbed the seven-colored nail within the wound with his left hand, letting out a low roar as he fiercely pulled it outwards! A tidal wave of intense pain swept through him. Wang Lin groaned, his entire body soaked in sweat, and he trembled, unable to pull out the seven-colored nail!
This nail was as if it had grown together with his bone, inseparable! Even more bizarrely, the seven-colored light on the seven-colored nail actually merged into the bone, permeating the entire right side of his bone, making its color appear seven-colored.
Wang Lin's face was pale. The moment the seven-colored light merged into his bone, his mind immediately became hazy, and he vaguely showed signs of going mad.
Although this sign dissipated in an instant, it made Wang Lin gasp.
In that brief moment, the sign of madness was completely beyond his control, as if his mind had fallen into Hell, sealed layer by layer, and he was no longer himself… Looking at his right shoulder again, the seven-colored nail had shrunk by half.
Staring intently at the seven-colored nail, Wang Lin had a feeling that if the nail completely disappeared, his bone would turn entirely seven-colored, and by then… the sign of madness would not be fleeting, but permanent.
"What exactly is this Magic Treasure!!" The flesh on Wang Lin's right shoulder gradually healed. A moment later, the wound disappeared, concealing the seven-colored nail within.
Silently observing the healed wound, Wang Lin closed his eyes. His Primordial Spirit struggled within, slowly circulating. Since external force could not remove the seven-colored nail, Wang Lin attempted to use his internal essence and Ancient God Power to force it out.
Time flowed, and another three days passed. Wang Lin opened his eyes. With his cultivation, he could only slightly suppress it, but he couldn't force out the seven-colored light in his right bone, let alone the nail itself.
"Being able to slightly suppress it means it's not a dead end. Right now, I need to find helpers… If I have enough helpers, then I should be able to force back this seven-colored light and force out the nail!" Wang Lin silently glanced at the jade bottle he had placed beside him when he was unconscious. This item was Cang Songzi's ultimate goal in coming to this Seven-Colored Realm.
Picking up the jade bottle, Wang Lin's Divine Sense permeated it. Inside was half a bottle of black liquid, resembling blood, but without a bloody smell.
"Once I retrieve Cang Songzi's Primordial Spirit, it will be clear what this item is. If there are no surprises, this item should be related to increasing cultivation." Placing the jade bottle in his embrace, Wang Lin stood up, his gaze once again falling on the Life-Death Restriction at the Immortal Cave entrance, then looking at the silver-robed woman.
"You know the Life-Death Restriction?"
The silver-robed woman was silent, then after a long while, she softly said, "I have… some memories…"
"Open the Restriction." Wang Lin nodded slightly.
The silver-robed woman walked to the Immortal Cave entrance, raised her jade hand, and tapped it. Immediately, the Restriction slowly dissipated and vanished.
Wang Lin did not ask for details. With a flick of his sleeve, Xu Ligou was about to speak, but before he could open his mouth, Wang Lin took him and the silver-robed woman into his Storage Space.
Leaving the Immortal Cave, Wang Lin took a deep breath, enduring the sharp pain in his right shoulder. His body flickered and shot out, accelerating towards the distance. The place he was heading was not the interior of the Seven-Colored Realm, but the outer perimeter behind the mountain peaks outside the valley.
There, mountain peaks stood tall, filled with Vicious Beasts that had turned into mist.
These Vicious Beasts were the helpers Wang Lin was seeking for himself!
His speed was incredibly fast. As he rushed, he passed through valleys, gradually following the original path to the outer perimeter of the Seven-Colored Realm. Passing through the passage in the mountain range, Wang Lin looked up, his eyes flickering as he stared at the thick mist on the mountain peak where the passage was located.
After carefully deliberating his plan, Wang Lin's eyes showed determination. Although this trip was dangerous, if he could force out the seven-colored nail, everything would be worth it!
"Let's see how strong my Ancient God Physical Body truly is!" Wang Lin's body flickered out, transforming into a long rainbow and rushing directly towards the mountain peak.
Before he even got close, a roar erupted from within the mist. A hundred-zhang-sized giant eagle flashed out like lightning, rolling and flickering with the mist, screeching as it charged straight at Wang Lin. Behind this giant eagle, the mist followed closely.
Its speed was too fast, approaching in an instant. With a huge impact, this eagle-beast pounced, crashing into Wang Lin. Wang Lin did not dodge, directly using his Physical Body to resist!
The man and the eagle rapidly approached, colliding violently. A booming sound suddenly erupted. Wang Lin's body staggered back, taking advantage of the eagle-beast's impact force without any attempt to mitigate it, channeling it all into his right bone. Under the vibration, the seven-colored light within his bones immediately flickered, even penetrating his skin. From a distance, Wang Lin's entire body now faintly glowed with seven-colored light.
The eagle-beast roared, its body also sent flying. It circled once in mid-air and charged again.
Wang Lin's mind was shaken, but his steps did not falter. He charged out again, heading straight for the mist. At this moment, with the roar of the shadow beast, the mist on the mountain peak churned, and another hundred-zhang-sized eagle-beast rushed out. Together with the previous one, two eagle-beasts roared in unison, transforming into two black streaks that charged directly at Wang Lin.
Booming sounds continuously echoed. Wang Lin's entire body felt as if it were being struck by countless mountain peaks. His face grew even paler, blood flowed from the corner of his mouth, but his eyes grew brighter and brighter!
Both of these Vicious Beasts were of the twelfth rank, possessing extremely strong impact force. However, Wang Lin's body was currently peculiar; all of this impact force was channeled into his right bone. He was willing to severely injure his Physical Body to force out the seven-colored light!
The seven-colored light on half of his body flickered intensely. With Wang Lin's method, it was as if these two eagle-beasts were helping him force out the seven-colored light. The seven-colored light flickered and gradually gathered towards his right shoulder.
Black light flickered. The two eagle-beasts roared, continuously attacking Wang Lin. Wang Lin's injuries grew more severe, blood spilling from his mouth, but his expression showed ecstasy.
As long as the Ancient God Physical Body's foundation was not damaged, all injuries could recover in a short time. Even severe injuries were fine for Wang Lin, as long as he could force out the seven-colored nail.
At this moment, Wang Lin's Physical Body had reached its critical limit of endurance. The seven-colored light on his right side had all converged on his right shoulder, transforming back into a complete seven-colored nail.
Furthermore, under these continuous strikes, the nail subtly loosened, showing signs of moving outwards.
Just then, another roar came from within the mist at the mountain peak. A third eagle-beast flew out, transforming into a black long rainbow and fiercely striking Wang Lin's chest.
Wang Lin's body trembled. The immense impact force made his already severely injured body feel as if it was about to collapse, but his eyes showed pleasant surprise. With a loud laugh, his right shoulder burst open with a bang, flesh and blood flying as a seven-colored light shot out, and within it, was precisely the seven-colored nail!
I am fine, thank you all for your concern. Starting from midnight tonight, monthly votes will be doubled. I hope there will be more monthly votes then to make Er Gen happy. The third update will also be delivered then.
