Chapter 1531: Dominate the Inner Realm, The Origin Point

Chapter 1531: Dominate the Inner Realm, The Origin Point (First Update)

Wang Lin's heart pounded. He was shocked by his own bold guess. Staring at the final Rune Seal on the door, Wang Lin took a deep breath.

This Rune Seal was a Fusion of Immortal power and dao ancient Qi, filled with repulsive force, but because of this circular rune, this repulsive force did not explode to destroy the door, but was instead used by it, becoming a Seal.

The ingenuity and eeriness of this rune made Wang Lin even more shocked!

This rune was equivalent to opening a door for him, another path for the repulsive force in his body to dissipate!

"This type of rune Restriction, after fusing Immortal power and dao ancient Qi, is something too few people in this world can open… unless they are in the same state as me right now!"

Wang Lin's eyes revealed a look of deduction. After a long while, he sighed softly, his expression inevitably rising with feelings of complexity and absurdity. He felt that in the dark, there seemed to be a circle of Reincarnation, interlinked layer by layer.

He had left the Vermilion Bird Star years ago; if he hadn't gone to the Demon Spirit Land, he would never have reached the Luotian Star Domain through the Rift there. If he hadn't gone to the Luotian Star Domain, he would never have known about the Nether Beast and entered its body.

If he hadn't known about the Nether Beast, he wouldn't have had the idea to refine it into his life-bound beast later. If none of this had happened, he naturally wouldn't have been swallowed into the Nether Beast's body to heal during the first battle of the Cloud Sea, wouldn't have met that madman, and wouldn't have obtained the Immortal Bloodline; similarly, there would have been no such repulsive force.

Now, he had returned to the Vermilion Bird Star, returned to the place where he took his first step, returned to the origin point.

But at this origin point, he discovered that if even one link in this chain had gone wrong, he would never have been able to open this nineteenth layer of the Rune Clan…

In this world, he was the only one who could open this Seal. This fact made Wang Lin feel both moved and lost.

After a long while, Wang Lin shook his head gently, no longer thinking about this absurd matter. Instead, his eyes flashed, and he slowly raised his right hand. He did not circulate his Bloodline Immortal power, nor did he mobilize his dao ancient power, but slowly let the repulsive force of Immortal and ancient within him spread from his body to his right index finger!

In an instant, the moment Wang Lin felt a sharp pain in his body, it was as if a soft sword was twisting and stabbing inside him, piercing from his body into his right arm, crushing his flesh and Meridians, and even his bones trembled under this soft sword, eventually concentrating this repulsive force into his index finger.

Wang Lin's index finger trembled. A large amount of sweat beaded on his forehead. After panting for a moment, with his great perseverance, he forced his index finger to stop trembling despite the excruciating pain, keeping it extremely steady, not trembling in the slightest.

Slowly, Wang Lin's right index finger reached toward the circle on the door and gently touched the circular rune. The moment his finger landed, the repulsive force in Wang Lin's body erupted as if it had sensed its companion, roaring within his body.

Wang Lin's face turned pale instantly, but his right index finger remained completely steady.

His gaze was entirely focused on the tip of his right index finger. Ignoring the repulsive force within his body, he slowly controlled his finger to trace along the circular rune mark; he had to trace it completely.

Only by doing this could he open the rune!

Every time he moved a little, the repulsive force in Wang Lin's body would surge. He could clearly feel that repulsive force continuously rushing into his body from the circular rune along his finger. That kind of sharp pain made him drenched in sweat in just a few breaths.

Moreover, blood spilled from the corners of his mouth, and his internal organs seemed to be churning, as if they were about to collapse.

That kind of tearing between the Immortal body and the Physical Body was like pulling a person's soul out of their body alive. That kind of pain is hard to describe without trying it personally.

Time passed slowly. In the blink of an eye, half an incense stick of time had passed. The entire stone room echoed with Wang Lin's heavy breathing. His index finger had already traced most of the rune, with only a small piece remaining.

Bloodshot eyes appeared, and the veins on his entire right arm bulged high, looking from afar like tangled vines, which was shocking. Not just his right arm, but on his face and body, a large number of veins also bulged, squirming and bursting with the repulsive force that wanted to tear through Wang Lin's body and rush out.

Wang Lin gritted his teeth, staring fixedly at his finger, moving slowly without stopping. As he gradually traced, the repulsive force in his body became more and more violent. In the end, it was almost earth-shattering, and loud booming sounds erupted from within his body, drowning out his breathing in the stone room, like thunder, setting off fierce echoes.

"Just a little more…" Wang Lin's right hand was almost numb. The difficulty of absorbing the repulsive force of the circular rune was like fighting a fierce battle with a Third Step expert.

Even more arduous than that!

This rune could only be opened this way. If one only possessed Immortal power, it could not be opened; if one only possessed dao ancient Qi, it also could not be opened. If one possessed neither, then even if the Vermilion Bird Star were destroyed and refined, this rune would not be damaged in the slightest!

Time passed. Wang Lin used almost an entire incense stick of time for this last small piece. The moment his right index finger perfectly traced a circle and returned to the origin point, a great force erupted from within the rune and rushed straight toward Wang Lin's right hand.

With a loud bang, Wang Lin's body was sent reeling backward, his feet thumping against the ground. Rays of light radiated from his body—it was the Light Shadow Shield activating instantly, but in just a flash, the Light Shadow Shield collapsed and shattered.

Wang Lin spat out a mouthful of blood. The moment the Light Shadow Shield shattered, the Ancient God Star Point between his brows flashed, and the Celestial Emperor Furnace manifested outside his body. With a bang, the Celestial Emperor Furnace twisted the moment it appeared, and after slightly blocking it, it bounced back, turning into a dim light and returning to the star point between Wang Lin's brows.

After the offset from the Light Shadow Shield and the Celestial Emperor Furnace, the great force that erupted from the rune had dissipated quite a bit when it landed on Wang Lin, but it still made blood spill from the corners of his mouth again. His body retreated dozens of feet, crashing directly into the wall of the stone room. With a bang, the stone room shook violently, and cracking sounds filled the air; the wall behind Wang Lin immediately tore into countless Rifts with his body as the center, spreading in all directions.

The circular rune on the stone door erupted with a strong light in this instant, enveloping the entire stone room. Under that strong light, a crack slowly appeared in the middle of the rune on the stone door, and gradually, the stone door opened backward with a rumble!

As the stone door opened, a breath of vicissitudes blew out from behind the door, filling the surroundings.

Wang Lin wiped the blood from the corners of his mouth and looked up sharply. At a single glance, he saw that behind the stone door, it was pitch black, like the entrance to another world!

That was the greatest secret place of the Rune Clan, that was the nineteenth layer!

The moment the stone door opened and that sense of vicissitudes spread out, a breath of dao ancient Qi was mixed within it, which Wang Lin sensed instantly. Without hesitation, he raised his hands and slammed them against the wall of the stone room behind him.

Amidst the roar, using the force of the slap, Wang Lin's body flew out directly like a bolt of lightning toward the opened stone door. In an instant, he stepped into this nineteenth layer of the Rune Clan, which had never been entered by anyone since the ancient times after it was sealed!

The moment he entered, the stone door slowly closed with a rumble, and with a bang, it shut.

Wang Lin did not look back. He was shocked by everything he saw before him.

The place where he was, strictly speaking, was not the true nineteenth layer, but a strange passageway. The end of this passageway was where the nineteenth layer was located.

This passageway was composed of circular rings that grew larger and larger. These circular rings had gaps between them and extended forward. If it were just this, it would not have shocked Wang Lin, but these circular rings were all, shockingly, the same marks as the circular rune on the stone door!

They were all composed of the Fusion of Immortal power and dao ancient Qi!

It was precisely because of their existence, and because they were connected to the stone door, that the circular rune appeared outside the stone door!

"How on earth was this place formed!!" Wang Lin looked forward. Even though he had been to too many places and seen countless strange worlds, he was still shocked at this moment.

The passageway composed of these circular rings—the further forward one went, the larger the rings became, and the repulsive force contained within them became even more insane! There was also a sharp aura fused within, making Wang Lin feel more and more like his whole body was locked by sharp swords as he walked forward.

All around, outside those circular rings, it was pitch black. Even his Divine Sense could not rush out to check, but with his naked eyes, Wang Lin's pupils shrank, and he faintly sensed something.

"Outside this passageway composed of circular rings, it is actually soil…" Wang Lin's mind was a bit chaotic. He was originally deep underground on the Vermilion Bird Star, so seeing soil was natural, but now that he had stepped behind that stone door, he faintly felt as if he had gone to another world. Thus, seeing soil again gave him an indescribable feeling.

After a moment of silence, Wang Lin's eyes flashed. Since he was here, he had to see what was going on here! Wang Lin's body flickered, and he rushed forward rapidly, speeding toward the end of this circular passageway.

Gradually, the layers of circles in front of Wang Lin became larger and larger, almost reaching hundreds of feet in radius. The dao ancient Qi and Immortal power emitted from within became denser, and that sharp aura was even more earth-shattering, emitting endless cold, yet there was no sign of ice sealing anywhere around.

He did not know how much time had passed until, in front of Wang Lin, he saw the very last circular ring. He had arrived at the end of this passageway. This circular ring was already thousands of feet in size, like a piece of the sky!

Standing at this position, Wang Lin looked back. He could not see the position leading to the stone door behind him; all he saw were the layers of circular rings that were getting smaller and smaller.

In silence, Wang Lin turned around and took a step toward that last circular ring. With a bang, he walked straight into the center of the ring!

He saw…

"Continuing to explode, this is the first update! Today is not the usual exhaustion after the updates, the habitual three updates, but a continuous four updates, still four updates!!"
