Chapter 1470: Dominating the Inner Realm, A Mantis Trying to Stop a Chariot

The Nether Beast's roar grew increasingly intense, and the fear in its eyes deepened. It was terrified. Never in its life had it been stared at by so many people it feared; these gazes made it tremble with fright.

In its sluggish mind, it slowly began to realize something was wrong. It felt as if the gazes of these terrifying people before it were trying to pierce right through it.

Startled, its roar immediately became like thunder, spreading far and wide. To the ears of the crowd, it sounded like furious bellows. In reality, this roar merely represented its great fear and terror… If it were in the past, it would definitely choose to flee at the fastest speed, but currently, it was connected to Wang Lin by life essence. To it, Wang Lin was its closest kin. Thus, just like a child seeking its parents' embrace after being frightened, this immense Nether Beast charged towards Wang Lin.

However, this display, in the eyes of everyone except Wang Lin, was an extremely terrifying sight. Even those who understood the creature's nature couldn't help but feel fear after witnessing it swallow that dreadful golden storm just moments ago.

Even the Great Powers were startled and retreated in unison at this moment. However, some of them clearly harbored envy and greed in their gazes toward the Nether Beast.

"If this old man could also possess such a Vicious Beast, my strength would surely increase greatly!" The Great Power from the Summoning River Star Domain, the black-clothed Elder Zhou De, licked his lips as he stared at the Nether Beast.

"This Nether Beast, it could actually swallow that Golden Storm… This… this seems slightly different from the rumors! If this beast were mine, having it by my side…" Daoist Yun Feng also showed a trace of imperceptible greed in his eyes.

"With this beast by one's side, even if one isn't a Great Power, they would still be famous!" The other Cultivators present, the Great Divine Abilities from the Ghost Sect and Demon Sect, all stared at the Nether Beast. While horrified, they were also wildly attracted to the creature.

"A Natal Beast! Wang Lin was actually able to subdue this creature… The choice of the Venerated Sealer shouldn't be wrong…" Hongshanzi's eyes flashed as he exchanged a look with the old man from the Alliance's Corpse Yin Sect.

Amidst the mass retreat, only Wang Lin stepped forward. He raised his right hand and gently placed it on the Nether Beast's body. Being stroked by Wang Lin's right hand, the fear in the Nether Beast's eyes gradually vanished. By Wang Lin's side, it felt a warm sensation, and much of its terror dissipated.

Especially the constant stream of comfort transmitted from Wang Lin's mind caused the fearful roars emanating from the Nether Beast to slowly weaken. Like a kitten, it gently nudged Wang Lin with its massive head.

However, this scene was equally terrifying in the eyes of the surrounding Cultivators. The Nether Beast's body was too large, and its head was immensely huge. Although its nudge was gentle, it looked like a mountain peak crashing down, and when it landed on Wang Lin, a tremendous rumbling sound actually erupted!

The force of this impact was utterly terrifying. As the booming sounds echoed, it was no less than the full-strength strike of a Third Step Great Power! One must know that previously in Luotian, even Wang Lin was forced to retreat by the force of the Nether Beast's charge, showing the beast's boundless strength!

The Great Power from the Summoning River Star Domain, the black-clothed Elder Zhou De, gasped when he saw this. He immediately abandoned any thought of owning such a Vicious Beast, leaving not a single trace of the idea.

"Although this old man's Physical Body is not weak, it can't withstand such abuse… If this Vicious Beast nudged me like that, as if it were acting spoiled, wouldn't I constantly have to replace my Physical Body… This isn't raising a Vicious Beast; this is clearly raising an Ancestor!"

Daoist Yun Feng's eyes bulged. He took a deep breath, a wry smile appearing on his face, and muttered to himself while shaking his head: "This beast, this old man cannot afford to raise it. If one day it gets excited and bumps me during a fight, I…" The terrifying scene flashed in Daoist Yun Feng's eyes, making his scalp tingle.

It wasn't just the two of them; all the Cultivators present who had harbored greed for the Nether Beast were now horrified. This shock was no less intense than when they had witnessed the beast swallowing the Golden Storm earlier.

"The Nether Beast's impact is simply too terrifying!!"

"If I owned this beast, I wouldn't live long!"

"Only Wang Lin, with his powerful Physical Body, dares to raise this creature and allow the Nether Beast to act spoiled by his side… This kind of thing is too dreadful."

The cruel reality immediately shattered all traces of greed, causing the surrounding Cultivators to slowly regain their senses.

Under Wang Lin's soothing, the Nether Beast was no longer afraid. However, even Wang Lin hadn't expected the creature to suddenly unleash a strange, hidden aspect of its personality once its fear was gone… It gently wagged its tail, its expression instantly turning fierce. Low growls sounded again, but this time, it was roaring at the surrounding Cultivators who had previously frightened it. The ferocious look on its face, combined with the low growls, made it seem as if it would charge forward without hesitation the moment Wang Lin gave the command!

Even more exaggerated was the fact that its normally smooth skin had secreted a large amount of fine fur. This fur should have been soft, but now, following its low growls, it all stood erect, giving the beast a very majestic appearance.

Its eyes were fixed aggressively, its growls intensifying, staring intently at all the Cultivators ahead, as if burning with rage! Its current appearance formed an extremely stark contrast to its previous state; even Wang Lin couldn't help but be momentarily stunned.

It even showed a tendency to charge forward, but it was as if an invisible rope held it back, preventing it from rushing away from Wang Lin's side, only able to roar louder.

The Nether Beast's furious appearance was quite frightening. At this moment, Daoist Shui's eyes revealed despair through his fear. He never expected that all his plans and arrangements would be completely altered because of this strange Nether Beast!

Taking advantage of the moment when everyone's attention was fixed on the Nether Beast—which, having returned to Wang Lin's side, had suddenly shed its timidity and become majestic and roaring—Daoist Shui abruptly retreated backward.

Wang Lin's eyes flashed. Others might forget about Daoist Shui, but Wang Lin would never ignore him. The instant Daoist Shui retreated, Wang Lin took a step directly backward. Heaven and Earth rumbled as Wang Lin shot straight toward Daoist Shui!

Despair appeared in Daoist Shui's eyes. As he retreated, he performed Hand Seals with both hands and actually spat out a mouthful of blood. The blood was purplish-black, and as soon as it appeared, a wave of cold Yin Qi immediately permeated the surroundings.

But just as this cold Yin Qi spread, a scorching heat suddenly surged forth from within it. It rapidly shifted between coldness and flame, transforming into a circular, dark-purple Vortex that blasted straight toward Wang Lin!

Wang Lin stepped closer. Just as the purple Vortex arrived, he raised his right hand, clenched his fist, and unleashed the second punch he had previously held back!

This punch roared, shaking heaven and earth. The gigantic fist shadow materialized directly in front of Wang Lin and instantly collided with the purple Vortex. The booming sound swept madly across this Cultivation Planet and throughout the Cloud Sea Star Domain.

The moment the purple Vortex touched Wang Lin's illusory fist, cracking sounds immediately arose amidst the roar. Visibly, the fist was enveloped by a sheet of ice that spread rapidly. In just an instant, Wang Lin's illusory fist was completely covered by frost, resembling an ice sculpture!

Furthermore, the instant this ice sculpture formed, the scorching heat contained within the Vortex blasted out. Because this heat was extremely powerful, the ice shattered abruptly before it could even melt, scattering into pieces!

"Explode for me!!" Daoist Shui's eyes were bloodshot as he retreated, letting out a frantic roar.

The roar sounded again as the ice shattered, but the instant it disintegrated, Wang Lin's illusory punch did not explode. Instead, it shot forward with a crash, breaking through all obstructions in a world-destroying manner, heading straight for Daoist Shui!

Everything happened too quickly. In the blink of an eye, Wang Lin's illusory fist slammed toward the ground and collided with Daoist Shui. Veins bulged on Daoist Shui's face, his roar almost hysterical. He raised his hands and pressed them forward, attempting to resist the illusory punch!

But the moment his arms pressed against the massive fist, banging sounds erupted. Daoist Shui's arms instantly collapsed, flesh and blood flying everywhere, and even the white bones within his arms were shattered inch by inch!

Spitting out fresh blood, Daoist Shui felt an irresistible massive force emanating from the illusory fist. Amidst the roar, his arms collapsed in agonizing pain!

This scene was exactly like a mantis trying to stop a chariot. The instant his arms were destroyed, Wang Lin's illusory fist smashed heavily onto Daoist Shui's body.

Flesh and blood exploded. Amidst a horrifying shriek, Daoist Shui's Physical Body, just as Wang Lin had said, instantly disintegrated!

His Primordial Spirit escaped before his Physical Body disintegrated, fleeing backward frantically, carrying monstrous fear.

Wang Lin stood in mid-air, his eyes cold and indifferent. He had waited for this day for a very, very long time. At this moment, no one could stop him! His battle with Daoist Shui had attracted too much attention, drawing the gaze of all the surrounding Cultivators. In their eyes, Wang Lin at this moment was like a War Immortal!

That figure, with white hair swaying and white robes dancing, was enough to be deeply imprinted in everyone's minds and memories, unforgettable for a lifetime!

"Daoist Shui, you once left this Wang on the brink of death, making all my attempts to fight back fragile and useless before you. Did you ever consider that there would be a day when you would be like a stray dog before me, Wang Lin!

"This is Karma! Next, I shall take your life!!" Scenes from the past flashed in Wang Lin's eyes. Killing intent permeated the air as he stepped forward!

"You cannot kill me!! I am an Elder of the Divine Sect, I am a Cloud Sea Great Power, I am the slave of the Venerated Sealer, you cannot kill me!! I can perform meritorious service for the Inner Realm, I know information about the Outer Realm, spare me, I am willing to become your slave!!"

"I am willing to become your servant, just don't kill me!!" Although Daoist Shui's cultivation was that of a Third Step Great Power, his Heart-Nature was far inferior! Facing a life-or-death crisis at this moment, he completely disregarded his dignity, roaring frantically as he retreated.
