Chapter 1413: Peak of the Cloud Sea, One Missing?

Chapter 1413: Peak of the Cloud Sea, One Missing?

At the exact same time Wang Lin's tomb platform reached the fifth rank, within the sixth map, the fog here was not dense, but rather slightly sparse. However, countless spatial turbulence existed here, and a moment of carelessness would result in being swept up by the turbulence and having one's Physical Body torn apart.

In this place, there was a massive tomb platform measuring six thousand zhang, piled high with individual human heads. Those heads looked chaotic, but in reality, they formed a head Formation!

Amidst the permeating bloodlust, at the center of that tomb platform, an old man sat cross-legged.

This old man wore black robes, and his black hair was half-white. His appearance rapidly transformed between aged and youthful, and above his brow was a crescent moon shape. However, this was not the mark of the Moon Eater Clan, but rather a demonic mark resembling a fiend!

If the Clone of Myriad Sound Dao Venerable had not undergone Possession at this moment, seeing this person would definitely cause his pupils to constrict and his mind to be filled with vigilance. This person was precisely one of the Five Venerables of Archaic, the Nine Heavens Fiend Venerable who had been heavily injured and fled back then in the Fallen Land!

The cross-legged Nine Heavens Fiend Venerable suddenly opened his eyes in an instant, and black and white two-colored lights immediately flashed from within them.

"The sixth…" murmured the Nine Heavens Fiend Venerable, his voice hoarse, resembling the friction between two Flying Swords.

Within the fourth map, the fog was like a Vortex, and the clouds surged and moved as if countless grievance souls were roaring hoarsely, shaking the mind when entering the ears. In this region, Cultivators were extremely rare. As the fog rolled, a tomb platform of five thousand zhang in size could be faintly seen advancing at high speed.

Standing on that tomb platform was a burly man whose upper body was bare, exuding an air of formidable might. Behind him, a giant wolf shadow materialized, seemingly roaring in low tones.

The tomb platform was covered in dried blood, and the burly man himself also had several wounds. He was precisely the Third Step mighty figure of the Fengtian Wolf Clan who pursued Wang Lin into this Ancient Tomb!

As the tomb platform sped forward, the burly man's expression was solemn. But suddenly, his eyes flashed, and his right hand performed Hand Seals, pressing down into the Void Realm of the tomb platform beneath him, instantly causing waves of roaring sounds to echo in his mind.

After a long while, the burly man's expression became extremely gloomy.

"Another fifth-rank tomb platform has appeared! I wonder which mighty figure it is…"

Deep within this Ancient Tomb, above the sea of fog, countless Sealed platforms floated. Beneath the dim sky above these platforms, a tomb platform five thousand zhang in size was flying forward rapidly.

On the tomb platform was a woman dressed in white with fluttering black hair and a cold expression.

As she was moving forward, her delicate brows suddenly furrowed, and after a long while, a cold glint flashed in her eyes.

"Who could it be… perhaps it is that Myriad Sound…" The woman pondered for a moment as the tomb platform continued to speed along.

Within this Ancient Tomb, in a place even deeper than where these people were located, there was no fog, only endless currents of Qi whistling past, seemingly capable of tearing apart the protection of all Physical Bodies and Magic Treasures.

A low roar faintly echoed out, and a figure dozens of zhang tall could be seen taking large strides, walking forward madly. His speed was not fast, and the endless currents of Qi landed on his body with roaring sounds. Every single stream of Qi formed a wound, causing the figure's roar to become even more intense.

Behind this figure floated a tomb platform seven thousand zhang in size. Sitting cross-legged on that tomb platform was a Pink-robed Woman whose appearance was extremely enchanting, exuding a charm that captured people's minds!

"Brother Tuo Sen, you must be faster, oh. Whether this little sister can enter the depths of this Ancient Tomb depends entirely on Brother." The Pink-robed Woman covered her mouth and smiled, her beautiful eyes filled with allure. Her voice was extremely seductive, resembling a moan, and when it fell into the ears, it could stir up waves of itchy ripples.

"Shut up for this deity!! You vixen are far too annoying. If you chatter anymore, this deity…"

Before Tuo Sen could finish his roar, the woman's seductive laughter echoed out. With her laughter, the woman's body even trembled like a flower branch.

"This person just likes your rugged appearance… How about we stop first, and let this person give you a little sweetness to vent your anger… Will you…?"

Veins bulged on Tuo Sen's face. Amidst a low roar, he ignored the woman and strode forward.

The two gradually disappeared into the distance, leaving only that dissolute sweet laughter faintly echoing, lingering for a long time.

Within the fifth map, Wang Lin pondered for a moment, and just as his mind was about to withdraw from the tomb platform, suddenly, the Divine Sense that the tomb platform had burrowed into within his mind abruptly changed, transforming into a voice that seemed to come from ancient times, echoing mightily in his mind.

"You who opened the fifth-rank tomb can open the Reincarnation gate, becoming one of the Legacy testers of this Dao… The ninth rank is the end. If you are of my clan, you can enter the Reincarnation gate to seek the Legacy of this Dao. If you are not of my clan, the first to reach the ninth rank can take away the netherworld of this Dao… This Dao… Ye Mo…"

This voice echoed in Wang Lin's mind. At the very instant it vanished, Wang Lin suddenly felt as if his Divine Sense had merged into one with this entire Ancient Tomb, clearly sensing that within this Ancient Tomb, aside from himself, there were four auras flickering in and out of existence!

"dao ancient Ye Mo…" Wang Lin's mind trembled. This was the second time he had heard this name, the first time being from the First Generation Vermilion Bird! He clearly remembered that the First Generation Vermilion Bird had once said a sentence.

"As for the cultivation of ancient gods, this old man does not understand much, but in this old man's era, the strength of ancient gods was enough to shake the heavens and earth. Back then, dao ancient Ye Mo, although not ranked among Immortal Venerables, his cultivation was enough to make Immortal Venerables wary…"

Wang Lin was silent for a long time, brilliant light shining in his eyes as he pondered.

With Wang Lin's intelligence, he could naturally deduce that those four auras, just like himself, were all fifth-rank or higher tomb platforms.

"Since I could sense their existence after the tomb platform became fifth-rank, then they must have also sensed my appearance at this moment…"

"Not to mention that this Ancient Tomb is extremely bizarre, what on earth is the netherworld mentioned in that voice…"

After pondering for a moment, Wang Lin's gaze flickered, suppressing the fluctuations in his heart caused by the appearance of that voice. He lowered his head to glance at the tomb platform beneath him, his heart now certain that within this Ancient Tomb, the tomb platform was the key!

"According to the meaning within that voice, it seems necessary to use the fastest speed to make the tomb platform reach the ninth rank before anyone else…" Wang Lin raised his head to look into the depths of the fog in the distance. That direction, according to the map's markings, was precisely where the strange forest was located.

"Back then, Greedy Wolf discovered the Ancient Breath Leaves and the statue right there, and once said that the instant he touched the statue, a Vortex appeared. After entering the Vortex, he left this Ancient Tomb and appeared in the Outer Realm! I wonder if that Vortex is still there… No matter what, I must go explore this bizarre forest!"

Having made up his mind, Wang Lin controlled the tomb platform to speed forward. Along the way, he sat cross-legged, rapidly practicing Qi absorption and healing his injuries so as to recover as quickly as possible.

He even released his Qi, gradually attracting numerous humanoid Vicious Beasts hidden within the fog that came howling over. Whenever these Vicious Beasts arrived, amidst a flash of bloody light, they all died miserably one by one, transforming into vitality that drifted into Wang Lin's body, causing his injuries to recover extremely quickly.

Advancing all the way with continuous slaughter, after several hours, as Wang Lin left, countless Vicious Beast corpses were left behind to be devoured by the fog.

After a long time, the tomb platform slowly came to a halt. In front of the tomb platform, there was no fog; instead, a withered yellow color permeated, transforming into an area of distortion.

Wang Lin opened his eyes while sitting cross-legged, gazing at the distortion ahead. His Divine Sense spread out and extended forward, but the moment it touched the distortion, it was immediately blasted out by a massive force.

His gaze flickered, and he saw that distorted withered yellow color flickering violently. Within moments, a leaf-shaped depression materialized within it.

That depression looked exactly the same as the Ancient Breath Leaf!

Raising his right hand to grab into the Void Realm, an Ancient Breath Leaf appeared in Wang Lin's hand. He flung it forward, and the leaf headed straight toward the distorted withered yellow, instantly landing inside that depression.

Roaring sounds instantly arose, and numerous Rifts immediately appeared around the depression, looking as if it were collapsing. In the blink of an eye, it expanded outward, instantly tearing open a gap.

Without hesitation, Wang Lin put away the tomb platform and took a step forward, instantly stepping into that gap and disappearing. After his body entered, the gap slowly contracted, finally forming the distortion once again.

A withered aura faintly rushed toward his face, and within that aura, it contained an even greater scent of death. When Wang Lin appeared and looked out, this was an endless forest where all the trees had withered into dry wood, revealing scene after scene of grimness.

"This is the place…" Wang Lin's gaze swept across. Everything here was identical to Greedy Wolf's description. Wang Lin strode forward, his speed roaring as he headed straight for the center of this withered forest.

This forest was too vast, boundless. Even with Wang Lin's speed, it took him a long while to faintly see its center—an open space devoid of withered trees!

Floating above the open space was a constantly rotating Vortex. The interior of the Vortex was pitch-black, seeming to lead to another realm!

Wang Lin's body landed a hundred zhang away from the Vortex, gazing intently. On the ground below the Vortex, there was a depressed area, as if a long time ago, there had been a statue there… and a tree that had not withered.

"The Ancient Breath Leaf is a supreme treasure. Since it was born here, then there must surely be a method to give birth to some more!" Wang Lin stepped back a few paces, coming to the side of a withered tree trunk. He placed his right hand upon it, releasing his Divine Sense to surge into the tree trunk, observing carefully.

But the instant his Divine Sense surged into this tree trunk, Wang Lin let out a soft exclamation of surprise. He clearly sensed that his Divine Sense, following the roots of this tree, penetrated deep into the earth beneath his feet, faintly seeing an object that filled him with shock and suspicion!

Wang Lin quickly withdrew his right hand, his body suddenly leaping up and floating into mid-air, lowering his head to look down!

The shape of this extremely large forest was shockingly that of a human head!

"So that's how it is!" His gaze penetrated through this withered forest, sweeping across the underground beneath it. After clearly seeing the object hidden beneath the earth, cold light flashed in Wang Lin's eyes. Without hesitation, he suddenly waved his right hand in front of him, and bloody light filled the heavens. The Blood Sword directly appeared, transforming into a long rainbow that rushed straight down to press toward the ground below!

Sword Qi whistled, roaring and moving!

At this very moment, at the end of the fourth map, the Fengtian Wolf Clan burly man's tomb platform sped along. Following the path in his mind, he rushed out of the fourth map and appeared within the fifth map.

A ferocious expression appeared on his face, and an expression of greed flashed across his eyes. The moment he stepped into the fifth map, he flipped his right hand, and an Ancient Breath Leaf shockingly appeared in his hand!!

"This old man went through great pains to snatch it from others, finally seizing one of the two leaves. Unfortunately, the other one was snatched away by Ling Dong, and its whereabouts are unknown… This leaf is completely unremarkable. If it weren't for pursuing that damned little Cultivator and seeing the power of this leaf in his hands as well as its bizarre power comparable to the Fengmie Clan, this old man would not have known the importance of this item!

At the end of this fifth map, there is a leaf mark. There might be more of these items there!" The burly man licked his lips and controlled the tomb platform to speed forward.

Tomorrow will continue with explosive updates! Wang Lin wants to snatch treasures, and Er Gen wants to snatch votes!
