Chapter 1255: Peak of the Cloud Sea. Charge!!!

However, this world of the Rift was purple. Looking from afar, it was filled with a monstrous purple aura. Those invisible, cold auras were like undercurrents, stirring the clouds and winds, making this world filled with countless unfathomable abnormalities!

The moment Li Qianmei's tears fell and she opened her eyes to look toward where the whistling sound came from, a giant phantom whip suddenly approached outside the blue light surrounding her body and lashed fiercely against it!

The blue light shuddered and collapsed for a moment. Immediately, several Vicious Beasts roared as they charged directly toward Li Qianmei!

Amidst the echoing roars, a sharp glint flashed in Wang Lin's eyes. He turned and stared straight into the distance. He could not see the situation there, but he could feel that there was a fluctuation of a Divine Ability!

There, within those fluctuations of the Divine Ability, was an aura he was familiar with. This aura belonged to Li Qianmei!

Wang Lin's heart trembled, and without hesitation, he dashed madly toward the location of the Divine Ability fluctuations. The surrounding Vicious Beasts were boundless and kept rushing over. Wang Lin's eyes were bloodshot as he performed Hand Seals, causing the heaven and earth origin energy to suddenly condense. It transformed into a series of rumbling explosions that echoed throughout this world.

One Vicious Beast after another collapsed into blood mist. Wang Lin's speed grew faster and faster. Surrounded by tens of thousands of Mosquito Beasts, a massive killing Vortex formed around him. Wherever he passed, not a single Vicious Beast remained alive!

"Die, die, die, die!!" Wang Lin's eyes were red as he charged out frantically. The wails of the surrounding Vicious Beasts came incessantly, growing increasingly shrill.

Under such slaughter and charging, Wang Lin's speed reached its Peak. With a single leap, he covered an endless distance, forcefully carving out a bloody path from the encirclement of countless Vicious Beasts!

Blood filled the air, and the scent of blood permeated the entire world. It seemed as if even the purple color had been stained dark red! At such speed, in just a moment, Wang Lin grew closer and closer to where the Divine Ability fluctuations originated. At this moment, he could clearly feel the faint aura emanating from within those fluctuations, as if Li Qianmei was currently facing immense danger!

With a low roar, Wang Lin performed Hand Seals with his right hand. The heaven and earth origin energy within his body circulated and condensed in his palm, transforming into a blinding golden light. This golden light shot up into the sky and exploded, turning into a brilliant radiance that covered a radius of ten thousand li, making this dark world bright in an instant.

In the moment the world brightened, Wang Lin saw a scene he would never be able to forget for the rest of his life!

This scene caused his mind to tremble violently. He let out an earth-shaking roar, creating a massive airwave that seemed to make the world collapse. It even made his body tremble, and an extreme madness erupted instantly!

He saw, several thousand zhang away, surrounded by endless Vicious Beasts, a woman dressed in white with a pale face, staring blankly at him and revealing a gentle smile.

Yet this smile seemed eternal. There was a faint blue light around her body, but outside that blue light, a giant phantom whip was whistling over and lashing against it.

The blue light collapsed with a boom. The whip broke through the blue light and headed straight for Li Qianmei! Once this whip landed, Li Qianmei would undoubtedly die!

Time seemed to slow down in that instant. Amidst his roar, Wang Lin raised his right hand, his expression filled with madness and ferocity. He pointed at the giant whip phantom several thousand zhang away and shouted: "Fix!"

An indescribable rule permeated the world in that instant, transforming into countless threads that instantly wrapped around the whip lashing toward Li Qianmei. With echoing thumping sounds, the whip's speed slowed slightly, but it could not be fixed in place!

Taking advantage of the moment its speed slowed, Wang Lin's mind went blank. His only thought was to save Li Qianmei! He lifted his right foot and stepped forward. Immediately, ripples echoed beneath his feet, and his entire body vanished from the spot, merging into the void—Shrinking the Ground into an Inch!

That giant whip contained a strange power that seemed capable of resisting even the rules. Amidst the thumping sounds, the Body Fixing Art's Divine Ability acting upon it collapsed. The whip headed straight for Li Qianmei, getting closer and closer, closer and closer.

Li Qianmei could not dodge or resist. At this moment, her vitality was about to be extinguished; she was at the end of her rope. Even if this whip did not strike, she would definitely not survive much longer. The injuries within her body had already caused her Primordial Spirit to collapse. What kept her alive now was only an indescribable will supporting her.

The moment she saw Wang Lin, Li Qianmei smiled. She was satisfied. To be able to see Wang Lin at the moment of death, to know that Wang Lin was unharmed and had awakened, was enough.

She was very tired, very cold, and utterly exhausted. It seemed as if these ten years of time had drained everything from her. At this moment, the accumulated fatigue erupted, threatening to drown her.

The whip was already upon her. With a rumble, the golden brush in Li Qianmei's hand suddenly collapsed, transforming into a spread of golden light. The whip phantom lashed toward Li Qianmei's body.

But just as the whip was seven inches away from Li Qianmei's body, a crazed roar rose up to the heavens. A powerful palm appeared out of thin air outside Li Qianmei's body and grabbed the phantom whip!

Wang Lin's figure stepped out from the void. Veins bulged all over his body, and his eyes revealed a crimson glow. He stood in front of Li Qianmei; he was like a great mountain, shielding Li Qianmei from the wind and rain, shielding her from life and death!

Li Qianmei stared blankly at Wang Lin, the smile on her face becoming even gentler. Yet her eyes gradually dimmed, the light slowly fading away.

The instant Wang Lin's right hand grabbed the whip, a massive force surged forth, as if tens of millions of carriages had collided. Even Wang Lin's body trembled, and he spat out a mouthful of blood, but he did not retreat even half a step, because behind him was a woman he had to save, a woman named Li Qianmei!

In this life, Wang Lin had only done such things for Wan'er. Now, there was another woman to whom he owed too much, a woman for whom he would be unworthy of being called a man if he did not act!

His face was ferocious. The instant the massive force arrived, thumping sounds echoed within Wang Lin's body. With a low roar, he gripped the whip tightly with his right hand and pulled with all his might! The Ancient God Star Point at the center of his brow suddenly manifested and spun crazily. Waves of Ancient God Power instantly permeated Wang Lin's entire body, finally merging into his right hand. An Ancient God Phantom manifested outside his body, and as he pulled, Wang Lin let out an earth-shaking low roar!

"Break for me!!!" Amidst the roar, the whip held by Wang Lin instantly echoed with a boom, and then it immediately collapsed!

But the instant it collapsed, a frenzied shockwave surged forth, sweeping directly toward Wang Lin. Wang Lin still did not retreat; he stood before Li Qianmei, forcefully resisting the shockwave. He spat out blood, but his eyes revealed a monstrous, cold glint!

"No matter who you are, I will not allow you to take this woman's life!"

The smile on Li Qianmei's face became even gentler. She looked at Wang Lin and said softly: "Thank you…" After saying these words, her eyelashes trembled, and she gradually closed her eyes, as if falling into a deep sleep.

Wang Lin's body trembled. He turned suddenly, his right hand performing Hand Seals without hesitation, tapping Li Qianmei several times. The heaven and earth origin energy within his body circulated and rushed into Li Qianmei's body, Sealing all the vitality that was currently being extinguished within her.

Yet all of this could not stop the Death Qi from spreading, nor could it stop the collapse of her vitality. Li Qianmei's Primordial Spirit had already begun to weaken, her soul had begun to disperse, and even her body had lost all its luster. Only the smile on her face became eternal in Wang Lin's memory.

"You cannot die! You cannot die!" Sorrow appeared on Wang Lin's face. He once again felt his own helplessness, once again experiencing the collapse of being unable to turn the tide. Over a thousand years ago, he had watched a woman grow old in his arms just like this, slowly dying, until only her body and a sleeping soul remained.

Over a thousand years later, he saw a second woman once again, right before his eyes, like a flower, rapidly withering.

"If one day I am no longer here, will you remember that there was a woman named Li Qianmei who passed through your life in a hurry…"

"If one day I am no longer here, I hope you can remember…"

Sorrow appeared in Wang Lin's eyes. In this instant, he thought of Li Muwan, thought of his beloved who was still lingering inside the Heaven-Avoiding Coffin and had yet to awaken. However, this world was cruel, making him feel that sadness from back then once again!

"I will not let you die!!!" Wang Lin said words he himself could not hear clearly. His eyes revealed madness. He raised his right hand and pressed it toward Li Qianmei!

"Years!"

The Years Divine Ability manifested with a boom. That massive stone gate stood tall in the world, and a sense of vicissitudes permeated endlessly, transforming into a flow of years that enveloped Li Qianmei's body.

In this instant, her rapidly extinguishing vitality actually… actually slowed down! However, the Years Divine Ability could not be stopped. Once stopped, Li Qianmei's vitality would dissipate in an extremely short time. From then on, there might be other women named Li Qianmei in the world, but none of them would be her!

With his right hand containing the Years Divine Ability, and while constantly consuming the heaven and earth origin energy within his body, he held the Li Qianmei who had closed her eyes, turned, and looked at this pitch-black world, his eyes revealing a monstrous killing intent!

And at this moment, a thunderous whistling sound erupted from the void. Two giant phantom whips suddenly appeared and lashed fiercely toward Wang Lin!

In the distance, endless Vicious Beasts let out bloodthirsty roars as they charged toward Wang Lin! Further away, there were several giant Vicious Beasts with bodies about ten thousand zhang large, their gazes toward Wang Lin flickering with vicious light.

Here, it was boundless, and everything was Vicious Beasts!

"Qianmei, I will take you out of here!" Wang Lin closed his eyes and placed his right hand on the center of his brow. In an instant, a complex Seal Restriction flickered at the center of his brow.

His left hand grabbed at his brow and tore downwards fiercely! He opened all the cultivation he had sealed back in the Seven-Colored Realm. At this moment, Wang Lin manifested in this Rift world in his strongest posture of the past two thousand years!

The next chapter will be late. A group of old friends who returned from out of town are currently at Er Gen's house, eyeing me like tigers, wanting to drag me out to drink. I have a headache… I've been drinking every day these past few days…

Once I'm done serving these masters, I will come back to write.
