Chapter 1168: Peak of the Sea of Clouds, Resolving the Primordial Covenant (Third Update)

"I am not a Slave Race member!!" The youth with the Crescent Moon Mark suddenly turned around and roared fiercely at Wang Lin.

Wang Lin gazed indifferently at the youth, the Vermilion Bird flames around him growing fiercer. The first time he encountered this youth was during the battle between the Void and the Moon Beast. This person appeared Outside the Boundary, forming a vortex, attempting to take the Moon Beast away!

At that time, this person was incredibly arrogant, proudly claiming that in the eyes of Wang Lin and the other Cultivators from Within the Boundary, he was the Heavenly Dao! Wang Lin was extremely shocked then, but the more he learned, the colder his gaze became toward this youth with the Crescent Moon Mark.

The Slave Race of the Ancient Gods, who sought protection through the Power of the Ancient God during the Primordial Era, was none other than the Moon Devouring Clan!

With a cold snort, Wang Lin stepped forward, clenching his right fist and striking directly ahead. Containing the Power of the Ancient God, a sound of shattering space immediately echoed, as if intending to shatter the heavens and earth, rapidly approaching the youth.

The youth’s face was pale. He knew that he probably couldn't escape, and if he wanted to live, he had to fight! But his heart was filled with bitterness—even if he fought, what were the chances of survival… he didn't know.

If he were fighting against members of other clans Outside the Boundary, he might still be able to surrender, but the person before him was a Cultivator from Within the Boundary, and furthermore, a member of the Ancient God Race, specifically a Royal Ancient God. From the clan's ancient texts, he knew that his clan had betrayed the Ancient Gods countless ages ago. Even if he surrendered, he could not escape the fate of having his Soul Search performed and dying.

"What is this damned place? How can there be Cultivators from Within the Boundary appearing here!!"

His expression grew even more ferocious. The youth let out a low roar, forming hand Seals. His entire body became even more crystalline, as if covered in moonlight. As Wang Lin's punch arrived, he violently spun his body, forming a whirlwind. Within that whirlwind, a massive Crescent Moon appeared!

The moment Wang Lin's punch landed, a roaring sound echoed. The Crescent Moon trembled violently but did not shatter. However, the youth inside had blood streaming from the corner of his mouth, a shocking sight. He gritted his teeth, circulated all his strength, pushed forward fiercely, and roared, "Anti-Moon Power!"

Suddenly, within the whirlwind surrounding his body, the Crescent Moon's light became blinding. It was a phantom Ancient God punch that burst forth, heading straight for Wang Lin!

Wang Lin's expression was calm. With a cold laugh, he raised his right hand and struck out again, simultaneously taking a step forward, closing the distance with unimaginable speed.

The punch shot out and collided with the Ancient God's punch released by the Anti-Moon Power, instantly producing a resounding boom.

"How can the techniques of a Slave Race compete with an Ancient God!" As Wang Lin advanced, his right fist thundered out, continuously striking forward and closing in on the whirlwind. Amidst the massive rumbling, the youth within the whirlwind constantly retreated, spitting out blood with every step backward, his body trembling violently.

At this moment, Wang Lin was like a War Immortal, striking forward step by step, carrying endless Battle Intent and passion!

The two exchanged blows, one retreating and one advancing. Every punch released the Anti-Moon Power, quickly overwhelming all other sounds in this strange space.

"Shatter for me!" Wang Lin's voice was calm but carried supreme pressure. Retracting his fist, he spun his body, and his right foot, like a hurricane, delivered a loud kick into the whirlwind.

With cracking sounds, the whirlwind immediately collapsed, and the Crescent Moon inside was torn apart and exploded!

A bloody silhouette was swept out from within. It was the youth, covered in blood, who curved through the air and fell into the distance. Wang Lin took another step, walking toward the youth.

The youth’s pupils were unfocused, but he struggled to roar out an extremely complex incantation. At the same time, he quickly formed hand Seals and pointed them at his glabella.

"Moon Restriction, God's Wrath!" The youth knew that his Moon Devouring Clan possessed an ancient Divine Ability, known as a Forbidden Art. It was never to be used unless absolutely necessary, because this Divine Ability was a humiliation to their Moon Devouring Clan!

Amidst the roar, the moment Wang Lin approached, the youth immediately knelt on the ground. He raised his hands toward the distance, forming strange hand Seals, and began to kneel and worship.

"Borrowing the power of the Divine Soul, merge with my Moon Devouring clansman!"

The instant his voice sounded, a vast Power of the Ancient God suddenly appeared around the youth’s body. Immediately afterward, the space behind him twisted, and a massive, several-hundred-zhang-tall phantom Ancient God figure appeared!

This Ancient God was completely indistinct, its eyes closed. Only the seven Ancient God Star Points on its glabella were dazzling, radiating brilliant light.

"I beg the Ancient God Clan Soul to bestow the Moon Devouring power upon the Slave Race, destroying all enemies who obstruct our path!" Humiliation filled the youth's heart, but in this moment of crisis, he couldn't afford to care, and his hoarse voice echoed.

The phantom Ancient God that appeared behind him suddenly opened its eyes, revealing a sense of antiquity and endless dominance, and slowly raised its right hand, crashing down toward Wang Lin.

Malice flashed in the youth's eyes, and he screamed frantically internally: "Since you are an Ancient God, then let your Ancient Gods kill each other!!"

Sadness surfaced in Wang Lin's eyes as he looked at the phantom Ancient God and the punch hurtling toward him. He sighed softly, and Ancient God Star Points immediately appeared on his glabella. As they rotated, his entire body instantly became suffused with Ancient God Aura.

"The clan you protect is a rebel of my Ancient God Race. By the command of me, Wang Lin, Royal Ancient God, you shall disperse!" The words of the Ancient God boomed forth from Wang Lin's mouth, forming ripples that spread out.

The phantom Ancient God's fist suddenly paused. Its eyes revealed confusion and relief, and it gradually dissipated… It had been a very long time since a Royal Clan member had appeared in the Ancient God Race. The Ancient God Soul protecting the Moon Devouring Clan was merely a trace of Soul Sense, a trace of Will… It was a Royal Ancient God who had decided to protect the Moon Devouring Slave Race back then, and thus the entire Ancient God Race executed that Will without hesitation. This continued for ages. As time flowed, even though they had died, the Will existing between heaven and earth continued to provide protection as before.

Unless a new Royal Clan member appeared and issued a Will to abandon the protection, only then could this ancient covenant be broken!

Today, at this moment, this very instant, Wang Lin's words were the Will of the Royal Ancient God!

The youth was completely stunned. With his experience, how could he know this secret unique to the Ancient Gods? Because he didn't know, he was foolish enough to borrow the power of an Ancient God in front of Wang Lin, a Royal Ancient God!

"From this moment forth, the Ancient Gods shall no longer protect the Moon Devouring Clan, but destroy the Moon Devouring Clan!" This was the last sentence the youth heard. Wang Lin stepped forward, sweeping his foot across the ground. The youth's body boomed, all his bones shattered, but his Physical Body did not disintegrate. Instead, Wang Lin's sweep rolled him directly toward the Skeleton beneath the Stone Stele.

With a loud crash, the youth's Physical Body overlapped with the Skeleton. Blood spurted from his shoulders, where he was nailed by the Seven-Colored Nails! Screams of agony echoed heaven and earth at that moment. The pain of having one's body fixed by two Seven-Colored Nails, having one's Dao Concept fiercely sucked away, and even having one's Soul seemingly ground up repeatedly—this kind of suffering was absolutely unbearable for ordinary people.

Wang Lin did not kill him immediately. Instead, he made him endure the suffering of Zhan Xingye back then, waiting for death amidst continuous torment.

The youth's body trembled beneath the Stone Stele. He struggled, trying to leave, but couldn't. Even his Primordial Spirit was unable to escape, being tightly Sealed within his body.

Wang Lin slowly walked closer, raised his right hand, and pressed it onto the youth's Heaven Spirit. His Divine Sense rushed out, forcefully performing a Soul Search within the youth's brain. After obtaining the memories, the youth was already on the verge of death, but the pain became even more intense, preventing him from fainting or self-destructing. He could only slowly die amidst endless torment.

Retracting his right hand, Wang Lin let out a soft sigh.

At this moment, within this space, the flames covering the Vermilion Bird reached an unprecedented height. They burned frantically, constantly climbing toward the Vermilion Bird's Third Transformation!

Meanwhile, in the vast Void beneath the boundless Star Domain of the Sealed Realm, outside the colossal Formation that Seals the Heavens and Locks the Earth and permeates the Star Domain—the starry sky here is called Primordial Stars, also known as Outside the Boundary!

Within the Primordial Stars, in the vast Star Domain, there is a clan settlement permeated by lightning. This place is the location of the famous Lightning Thunder Clan among the Primordial Clans.

Within the Lightning Thunder Clan, there is a bolt of eternal lightning that has existed for countless millennia and never dispersed. This lightning comes from the Void and constantly emits loud rumbling sounds. The area where the lightning resides has been built into a temple by the Lightning Thunder Clan members, used to worship the lightning.

But at the moment the person with the Lightning Mark died within the Seven-Colored Realm, at the instant Wang Lin spoke of collecting the lightning power, this eternal lightning, which had never dissipated, suddenly emitted a thunderous roar unlike any before! While shocking the entire Lightning Thunder Clan, it also caused the hearts of all clansmen in the Lightning Thunder Clan's Star Domain to jump!

At the moment all clansmen's expressions drastically changed, rushing frantically and spreading their Divine Sense, the lightning that had existed for ages suddenly vanished, without a trace, as if someone had collected it… Ten breaths later, although the lightning reappeared, the previous incident caused endless panic and fear within the Lightning Thunder Clan.

In the Primordial Stars, there is another region: the location of the Fire Sparrow Clan… Extremely similar to the Vermilion Bird Holy Sect, this region is filled with flames, seemingly burning constantly.

Even more similar is that within this burning region, countless Vermilion Bird statues stand atop various temples. However, these Vermilion Birds are entirely black, resembling Firebirds.

But the moment the Fire Sparrow Clan member died, at the instant Wang Lin spoke of collecting the flame power, all the Firebirds in this place violently shook, shrieks of fury shook the heavens, and cracks appeared with cracking sounds. Fully thirty percent of the Firebird statues immediately collapsed!

The entire Fire Sparrow Clan was shocked!

"In the ancient legends, when they are about to return, the Fake Sparrows Will self-destruct…" On a planet within the Fire Sparrow Clan, an old man looked up at the sky and muttered to himself at the moment all the Firebirds collapsed.

At the same moment, within the Moon Devouring Clan, one of the Seven Great Powerful Clans of the Primordial Stars, a heaven-shaking change occurred that shocked and horrified all members of the Moon Devouring Clan!

Dad and Mom got angry, saying I dared not come home to eat dumplings on New Year's Day. I quickly called to respectfully receive my lecture, gained my parents' permission, and Will continue writing, aiming for four chapters!!! Brothers, you are very supportive. Er Gen is immensely excited. Keep pushing for me!
