Chapter 1579: Ancient Mystery, Venerable Void God

"The Origin is also Karma. Opening the palm is cause, closing the palm is effect… Considering your cultivation of the Dao is not easy, I will not kill you today. I will take your Origin, Seal it for a thousand years, and you shall withdraw from the battlefield!"

Wang Lin's eyes contained the heavens and earth. A surge of righteous Qi suddenly erupted from his body, following his gaze and landing directly into the eyes of the man in green.

The man's entire body shook, his mind roared, and he spat out more blood. With a flick of Wang Lin's large sleeve, his body retreated repeatedly until he stopped thousands of feet away. His expression was dim, and his eyes revealed monstrous shock.

"You… this… what kind of Divine Ability is this!!!"

"Scram!" Wang Lin closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, a calm word came from his mouth. He did not shout this word; it was extremely flat. Yet, as it fell into the ears of the man in green, it was as if the heavens and earth were collapsing. Under the shock to his mind, it felt as if a force had rushed into his body, wanting to tear his Primordial Spirit apart.

In terror, blood spilled from the man's mouth. His body retreated in a panic, and like someone with his Soul Flying Away and Spirit Scattering, he fled frantically.

He had not lost all of his Origin, but under Wang Lin's Karma Seal, more than half had been extracted. This terrified him to the extreme. Although he had never heard of such a Divine Ability, he vaguely knew that the Venerable Master's 'Fishing for the Moon in the Well' also possessed similar power.

His mind trembled. As he retreated, his heart was filled with unwillingness. He thought to himself that if his cultivation had been maintained at its Peak, then even if the opponent used the Karma Seal, it would definitely not have been as simple as it was now to extract his Origin.

"I am at the empty profound cultivation, I am not convinced!!" He roared and screamed in his heart, but his expression did not reveal a single bit of it. Instead, without looking back, he fled in a hurry.

All of this takes a long time to tell, but in reality, it happened in an instant. After forcing the man in green back with one Seal, Wang Lin turned abruptly and took a step toward the Venerable Void God, who was approaching with killing intent, his speed slightly reduced by the Body Fixing Art.

"The matters of the past shall be settled today." Cold light appeared in Wang Lin's eyes, but his expression was calm. As he looked at the Venerable Void God, he walked forward.

"Ten Thousand Rays of Void God Dao!" The Venerable Void God roared, formed Hand Seals with his hands, and waved them in front of him. Behind him, a massive Rift immediately boomed into existence. Endless incense power Souls surged from within the Rift, rushing out with ferocious expressions. Suddenly, in this starry sky, countless rays of light soared, and within those many rays of light, ten thousand blurry, giant statues suddenly filled every direction.

"Suppress this person for me! Suppress him into the Reincarnation of the heavens and earth, let him fall into the abyss of the starry sky, and never let him escape a single inch of his Soul!" Under the Venerable Void God's roar, he pointed his hands forward. The ten thousand illusory statues surrounding him, under the rays of light, crashed down toward Wang Lin, as if to bury him in this starry sky.

At this moment, a huge Vortex appeared beneath Wang Lin. This Vortex was a manifestation of a Divine Ability. As it spun, countless vengeful spirits appeared. They shrieked miserably, their bodies twisting as they reached out, filling the area around Wang Lin and tugging at his body, wanting to drag him into the Vortex.

At this moment, above Wang Lin, the Vortex created after the collapse of the empty gate still existed. Thus, looking from afar, this scene was extremely shocking. One could see Vortexes both above and below Wang Lin, and between these two Vortexes were ten thousand illusory statues. These statues emitted blinding light and were crashing down onto Wang Lin one by one.

Looking at it, it was as if Wang Lin's body had been completely trapped under the great Divine Ability of the Venerable Void God.

"Die for me!!" The Venerable Void God's expression was ferocious. As he raised his right hand, a purple mist materialized. In the Venerable Void God's hand, it transformed into a Long Spear. He gripped the spear and lashed it violently at Wang Lin.

With a thunderous boom that shook the heavens and earth, the Long Spear, carrying endless mist, headed straight for the trapped Wang Lin.

The man in green, who was fleeing in the distance, paused his steps. His expression revealed a struggle, but soon he turned abruptly, staring fixedly at the trapped Wang Lin. With a low roar, he gave up fleeing and took a step forward.

Wang Lin's expression was calm. The moment the ten thousand statues collapsed, he closed his eyes and walked forward step by step. His speed was not fast, and there were already hundreds of statues close to him.

But the moment those statues fell, whether it was because Wang Lin's body had become illusory or because the statues themselves were transparent, they actually passed directly through Wang Lin's body, as if they did not exist.

The roar was monstrous as countless statues fell, but not a single one could stop Wang Lin for even half a step. All of them became transparent outside his body, as if they had dissipated, but after passing through him, they manifested again behind him, crashing down behind him.

This scene made the pupils of the Venerable Void God shrink violently.

Wang Lin's pace seemed slow, but he arrived in front of the Venerable Void God in an instant. He raised his right hand, ignoring whatever Divine Ability the opponent was using, and pressed directly into the void ahead.

"Life and Death Seal!"

The left hand was Life, the right hand was Death. As Wang Lin's right palm descended, black Qi suddenly filled the entire palm. Although it landed on nothingness, it made the Venerable Void God's expression change.

He clearly felt that Wang Lin's palm contained an aura of death. As the palm descended, it was as if there was no longer any trace of life in the vast starry sky, which had become a dead zone in an instant.

The moment it turned into a dead zone, countless Rifts appeared directly in the starry sky around the Venerable Void God, suddenly collapsing and rolling backward, carrying an endless aura of death straight toward the Venerable.

With a boom, the Venerable Void God retreated dozens of feet. He looked up, but the moment he did, Wang Lin raised his right hand and pointed at the Venerable Void God again.

"Fix!"

The Venerable Void God's body immediately slowed down again. He roared and moved his whole body violently, trying to break the power of the Body Fixing Art and rush out of the predicament that felt like a quagmire.

But how could Wang Lin give him a chance? While casting the Body Fixing Art, his body had already approached the Venerable Void God, and he raised his right hand, pointing a finger at the Venerable Void God's glabella.

"Thunder!"

As soon as these words were spoken, Wang Lin's right index finger seemed to transform into an Undying Heavenly Thunder. This Undying Heavenly Thunder fused all the thunder power of the Inner Realm and Outer Realm. This one finger could kill a Third Step powerful expert.

Even though this Venerable Void God was one of the five ancient venerables, and even though his cultivation was supreme, he was here as a Clone, and his current cultivation was only just at the empty profound.

As such, this thunder power could also injure him!

As the finger fell, the Venerable Void God shook all over. At his glabella, a silver light flashed, and tens of thousands of silver threads immediately spread out, covering the Venerable Void God's entire body in the blink of an eye. Roaring sounds surged, causing blood to spill from the corner of the Venerable Void God's mouth as his body crashed backward.

Just as he retreated, Wang Lin took another step forward, and with his right thumb, he pressed again on the Venerable Void God's glabella.

"Fire!"

With a boom, at the Venerable Void God's glabella, beneath the spread of silver threads, waves of world-destroying flames suddenly spread. In the blink of an eye, they engulfed his entire body, and even rushed into his mind and Soul, burning fiercely.

This pain of being burned inside and out simultaneously made the Venerable Void God's expression twist, and he spat out a large mouthful of blood.

But it was not over yet. Killing intent flashed in Wang Lin's eyes. He raised his right hand into a palm and suddenly pressed it against the Venerable Void God's forehead again. After the palm landed, his five fingers hooked fiercely, and as he pulled outward, his palm clenched into a fist.

"Karma."

A strand of Origin Qi was shockingly extracted by Wang Lin!

This continuous barrage of attacks gave the Venerable Void God no chance to resist at all. Relying on the Body Fixing Art, Wang Lin was like the Heavenly Dao at this moment!

"Life and Death." Wang Lin raised both hands. His left hand was Life. He pressed it against the Venerable Void God's chest. Under this press, the Venerable Void God's aged body immediately radiated youth, as if he had suddenly become young.

But at the same time, the moment Wang Lin's right hand fell, that youth collapsed. Life and Death Qi exploded within the Venerable Void God's body, as if wanting to tear his body apart.

Blood flowed from the Venerable Void God's seven orifices, but his body became even more ferocious. He was one of the five ancient venerables; his dignity would not allow him to submit. With a roar, the Venerable Void God's entire body shook violently, actually breaking the Body Fixing Art.

The moment the Body Fixing Art was broken, his entire cultivation suddenly exploded.

However, Wang Lin's expression remained as usual. The moment he broke free from the Body Fixing Art, Wang Lin pointed his right index finger forward.

"Fix!"

"No!!!" The Venerable Void God's entire body shook again, and his eyes revealed despair!

"True and False." Wang Lin closed his eyes, and everything in the heavens and earth was false. When he opened his eyes again, everything became true. But the moment he closed them again after opening them, Wang Lin raised his right hand and slashed down fiercely.

"Slaughter!"

With a boom, Wang Lin's palm was like a blade, emitting a monstrous crimson light of slaughter. It fell directly from the Venerable Void God's heavenly spirit and slashed through fiercely.

With earth-shaking thuds, amidst a miserable scream, the Venerable Void God's body was shockingly split into two, turning into two balls of purple mist that rolled backward to the left and right.

But, with Wang Lin's eyes closed at this moment, he could clearly feel that within the split mist, this mist was like a piece of clothing. Now that it was separated, it revealed the Venerable Void God—the true body of this Clone!

That was a formless mass of Qi. This mass of Qi was entirely illusory and difficult for Cultivators to perceive. Only Wang Lin, under this True and False Dao, could feel it.

This formless mass of Qi was the core of the Venerable Void God's Clone! This Clone was, in reality, just a single breath exhaled by the Venerable Void God's true body.

The Venerable Void God was called the Void God because his body had always been illusory since ancient times. One could even say that his body was just a mass of Qi!

At this moment, this formless mass of Qi that had turned into a Clone, invisible to anyone but Wang Lin, drifted hurriedly toward the rear, wanting to leave this place.

The Venerable Void God was not the one with the highest cultivation among the five ancient venerables, but he was the hardest to kill!
