Chapter 1251: Peak of the Cloud Sea – Become My Mount, and I Shall Spare Your Life!

The Demon Sect possessed six Cultivation Planets. These six Cultivation Planets formed a ring, arranged in a circle. It was a very simple circle, yet it was surrounded by an earth-shattering aura.

This was a Formation!

A grand Formation composed of six Cultivation Planets, its power was enough to destroy the heavens and earth. It was personally set up by the Demon Sect Sect Master at the time, after the Demon Sect was sent here countless years ago, becoming the final line of defense to block the attack of the Vicious Beasts!

The Demon Sect had six mountain gates, each standing on one of these six Cultivation Planets. Within each mountain gate, several Demon Sect Elders were stationed. There was very little interaction between the six mountain gates; most of the time, they acted independently!

This phenomenon was personally established by the Demon Sect's first and last Sect Master when the sect was founded, and it had continued to the present day.

Within the mountain gates of these six Cultivation Planets stood six identical Heaven-Reaching Stone Tablets, and on each tablet was carved the same person!

This person was middle-aged, with flowing robes, auspicious clouds beneath his feet, and nine eyes in the sky, as if gazing down at the earth.

And this middle-aged man was also looking up at the sky, seemingly locking gazes with those nine eyes.

Behind this middle-aged man was a towering ancient tree; this tree was so large that it seemed even the heavens and earth could not stop it from extending.

Every member of the Demon Sect knew that the middle-aged man carved on the stone tablet was the Demon Sect's first Sect Master, as well as its last!

That towering ancient tree was the Demon Sect Sect Master's Lifebound Treasure!

It was rumored that back then, the Demon Sect Sect Master's strength was enough to shake the heavens and earth. It was said that a long time ago, the Rift battlefield here was more than a hundred times larger than it was now. Endless Vicious Beasts, numerous King Beasts, and even Emperor Beasts and legendary beasts that could take human form appeared, but they were all killed one by one by the Demon Sect Sect Master, who had almost completely sealed this Rift.

However, at the moment of the sealing, an accident occurred. It seemed that someone inside the Rift had unleashed an unimaginable Divine Ability, forcibly stopping the Demon Sect Sect Master's Seal.

But even so, the Seal still had an effect, shrinking the Rift on a large scale. Furthermore, under the subtle influence of the Seal within, it made it impossible for too many powerful Vicious Beasts to rush out of the Rift.

As for the meaning represented by the nine eyes in the sky on the stone tablet, it was not something ordinary Demon Sect Disciples could know. Only the Demon Sect's Elders knew that those nine eyes in the sky represented the Ancient Immortal Realm!

They had also heard some rumors among the Elders. It was said that a very, very long time ago, the reason the Demon Sect separated from the God Sect was precisely because of the order of its first Sect Master. He ordered a portion of the God Sect's people to garrison outside the Rift battlefield, generation after generation, for millions and millions of years, to guard here firmly, not allowing a single Vicious Beast to rush out alive!

It was said that the God Sect Sect Master was actually the same person as the Demon Sect Sect Master… It was said that this person came from the Ancient Immortal Realm… It was said that this person had already gone missing, their life or death unknown, and the current God Sect was actually being controlled by this person's former servants on their behalf.

That was why the Demon Sect did not accept the God Sect's orders, and even had subtle means to oppose the God Sect!

Of course, all of this was hearsay; the true history had already sunk into the long river of time, and rarely did anyone know it clearly.

Right now, at the battlefield Rift outside the Demon Sect, the starry sky was surging with red light. Inside, Wang Lin and the white-haired old woman, after traveling continuously, had finally arrived at this Rift battlefield!

Along the way, Wang Lin had unleashed his speed almost crazily, taking less than a few days to arrive from the second-tier Star Domain!

"Old Woman Bai!! It is her!"

"Old Woman Bai left half a month ago, supposedly under the orders of the Demon Sect and at the request of Li Qianmei to handle a matter. Who is the person in front of her!"

"I cannot see through this person's cultivation, but in front of him, I actually have the feeling of my mind trembling. This person is too strong! I do not know which sect's Elder this is; why would he come here!"

"This person is too formidable, and extremely bizarre. Even the Vicious Beasts are terrified and retreating. And those skeletons formed from black Qi are actually showing fear after sensing this person's approach!!" The old man among the six great experts looked at Wang Lin with shock in his eyes.

"Could he be the reason Li Qianmei was punished by the Demon Sect to go to the depths of the Rift?" The cold woman's gaze swept over Wang Lin, and her mind was shaken. She clearly felt that her Divine Sense and gaze, the moment they approached the other party, had collapsed silently.

The three people shrouded in blue mist also became immediately vigilant, staring at Wang Lin, their expressions hidden within the mist changing.

"Old Woman Bai, who is he!" one of the people within the blue mist voiced out.

As the white-robed old woman was about to speak, Wang Lin took a step forward, heading straight for the Rift that was slowly opening and emitting roars. As he advanced, those skeletons and Vicious Beasts that had retreated to the side of the Rift, struggling to return, let out terrified shrieks.

"Noisy!" Wang Lin's figure was too fast; in an instant, he approached. He casually waved his right hand, and with a boom, a storm swept across. The storm also contained endless thunder, rumbling and filling the entire Rift, causing each and every Vicious Beast to scream and collapse to their deaths!

All of this was extremely easy for Wang Lin. He was anxious about Li Qianmei's current state! The ear-piercing shrieks of these Vicious Beasts only made him more annoyed.

With one wave, all the Vicious Beasts outside the Rift turned into flesh and blood. In an instant, the surroundings were silent, and even the roar of the Nine Nether Dragon inside the Rift paused involuntarily.

As for those skeletons formed from black Qi, they were trembling one by one, as if they had encountered a natural enemy, their gazes toward Wang Lin revealing an indescribable fear.

Wang Lin stood outside the Rift, glancing at the trembling skeletons, his eyes revealing a strange light.

"Devil Heads from the Realm of Silence?" In his early years, Wang Lin had become a Soul Devourer in the Outer Realm Battlefield of the Vermilion Bird Star, and had devoured a large number of Devil Heads. Seeing these skeletons now, he immediately discovered that they actually possessed the aura of Devil Heads!

There were not many Devil Heads here, but there were not few either. Wang Lin's eyes flashed, and he opened his mouth to inhale. With this inhalation, his whole body seemed to turn into a huge Vortex. In an instant, those skeletons, despite trembling, dared not resist; one by one they collapsed with a bang, turning into black Qi that rushed straight into Wang Lin's mouth.

Even the largest skeleton collapsed while trembling, becoming a large mass of black Qi that was sucked away by Wang Lin.

Waving his hand to make the Vicious Beasts collapse, inhaling to disintegrate all the skeletons—such cultivation, such Divine Ability, at this moment caused everyone around, except for the white-robed old woman, to be shocked to their cores.

The six great experts among the thousands of Cultivators here had their pupils constrict, their eyes revealing shock.

And those three Demon Sect people were also shaken, and began to evaluate Wang Lin's strength via voice transmission.

"At the very least, he is in the First Decay of Heaven and Man. But why is there no Heaven and Man halo on him!"

"Perhaps this person has some Divine Ability that can hide the Heaven and Man halo."

"This person is definitely not a nobody, but I do not know why he came with Old Woman Bai. I remember that Old Woman Bai went to deliver the Life Soul Jade Slip for Li Qianmei… Could it be…"

"Could it be that this person is related to Li Qianmei's Life Soul Jade Slip?"

The three transmitted to each other, their minds vigilant.

Only the white-robed old woman was already numb to all of this. She had seen Wang Lin's actions along the way, where even the six Grand Elders of the Wuji Sect did not dare to block his path, and two of them even had their Physical Bodies collapsed by this person. Now, Wang Lin merely killing some Vicious Beasts was, in her opinion, nothing.

The gazes of the crowd gathered, but it did not cause Wang Lin the slightest concern. His time was tight. After casually absorbing the skeleton Devil Heads, he looked at the slowly opening Rift and clearly felt a powerful aura emanating from within. This aura seemed to be hesitating, as if enduring.

"Li Qianmei, she entered here?" Wang Lin turned to look at the white-robed old woman, his voice calm, like the silence before a volcano is about to erupt.

"It is here!" The white-robed old woman, upon being looked at by Wang Lin, immediately nodded and said.

Wang Lin withdrew his gaze. He had no time to wait for this Rift to slowly open. He stretched out his hands and grabbed at the Void Realm in front of him. With a flash of sharp light in his eyes, a frantic aura immediately erupted from within his body, and he let out a low shout, tearing fiercely with both hands!

He was actually going to tear open this Rift that was slowly opening!

"Fellow Daoist, stop! There is a Nine Nether Dragon inside that Rift. This Dragon is extremely powerful. Once it appears, many will die here. I hope Fellow Daoist will wait a moment, and wait until we have formed the Formation before opening it!" The person who spoke was the Demon Sect person shrouded in blue mist.

The three of them even rushed out, heading straight for the Rift!

Wang Lin turned a deaf ear. With a low shout, he tore fiercely. Immediately, a rumbling sound rose to the heavens, and there was a crackling sound filling the air. It was that Rift, which, under his tearing, was forcibly torn open!

The moment the Rift was torn open, the roar of the Nine Nether Dragon came from within once again. It approached with a boom, opening its large mouth to rush toward Wang Lin and devour him!

Wang Lin was too close to the Nine Nether Dragon at this moment. The Dragon's eyes revealed frantic viciousness. While devouring, large amounts of black Qi sprayed out from the gaps in its scales, and even from its large mouth, black fog roared out, along with its thousands-of-zhang-long body, about to surround Wang Lin!

"Vile beast, you dare to devour me!" Wang Lin's eyes revealed a cold light. He did not dodge at all. The moment the Nine Nether Dragon came to devour him, he raised his right hand and struck forward!

With this strike, the roaring sound shook the heavens and earth. It seemed that in this instant, the endless power of the heavens and earth condensed crazily, merging into Wang Lin's palm, turning into a huge palm print that landed directly on the Nine Nether Dragon's face!

The Nine Nether Dragon screamed in the roaring sound, its whole body trembling. With thumping sounds, countless wounds cracked open, blood burst out, and its body retreated hurriedly. In its Dragon eyes, there was no longer any viciousness, but it was replaced by fear!

"Not dead?" Wang Lin's eyes revealed a strange light. He took a step, stepped into the Rift, raised his right hand, and struck again. With a boom, it slammed directly onto the Nine Nether Dragon's two horns.

With a boom, the Nine Nether Dragon screamed again, its two horns completely broken off, its eyes revealing terror and fear.

After two Divine Abilities, this Dragon was actually still not dead. Wang Lin flickered and stepped onto the Dragon's head.

"Become my mount, and I shall spare your life!" Wang Lin was not familiar with the inside of the Rift; with this Nine Nether Dragon, it would be much more convenient.
