Chapter 1585: Ancient Mystery, Unable to Withstand a Single Blow

Using the Dao of True and False to transform into the Calamity of Illusory Truth, surrounding the Million-Mile Fog. The figures formed within roared in struggle, heading straight for the Rift above Wang Lin.

A colossal boom that echoed throughout the entire Kunxu Star Domain erupted. The Ten-Thousand-Zhang Rift trembled violently under Wang Lin's Summoned Tribulation. Wang Lin's white hair fluttered, his cold eyes fixed on the Rift, his expression calm. With a flick of his sleeve, he walked toward the Rift.

His steps were not fast, but every time his foot landed, it produced an Earth-Shattering Sound. As soon as this sound appeared, the trembling of the Rift immediately intensified again.

Compared to the trembling of the Rift, Wang Lin's composure formed a stark contrast.

Wang Lin did not fear the Heavenly Tribulation. He possessed the Heart of a Great Confucian and a Vast, Righteous Qi. All things in heaven and earth are equal; even the Heavenly Tribulation cannot transcend this principle.

"All things have an Origin. Today, this Wang will see why this Heavenly Tribulation emerges, why it arises, and why it appears between heaven and earth!" Wang Lin's eyes flashed. Stepping forward amidst the rumbling sounds, he drew closer and closer to the Rift.

Just as he was less than ten thousand zhang away from the Rift, bright lights suddenly emanated from within it. This light spread out, enveloping the surroundings and completely illuminating the Dark Star Domain Fog.

Under the light, an object was seen slowly drifting out of the Rift. This object was an extremely ordinary Horsetail Whisk, only Seven Chi in size. Its handle was made of Purple Wood, and its strands were Nameless White Hair. The three thousand strands seemed to symbolize the Three Thousand Great Daos.

This object slowly drifted out of the Rift and gently flicked toward Wang Lin. The three thousand strands of the whisk moved without wind, immediately scattering. With this flick, an Invisible Force transformed into ripples, spreading out from the horsetail whisk.

Under these ripples, Wang Lin's steps paused slightly. His eyes shone brightly. His right foot, which had paused, immediately dropped down without hesitation, causing his entire body to shoot toward the horsetail whisk floating out of the Rift like a meteor.

The ripples spread, penetrating the surrounding fog. Just as Wang Lin approached, one strand among the three thousand white strands suddenly separated from the root of the whisk. Drifting out like a Thread of Smoke, this single white strand wrapped around itself, silently transforming into a Spell.

Gravity Spell!

At the same time, the second white strand separated from the root and drifted out, transforming into a second Spell: Fireball Spell.

The third white strand followed closely, transforming into a swath of desolation, becoming the endless Slaughter Sword Qi manifested by the Slaughter Sword Art.

The fourth, fifth, sixth strands… In an instant, several hundred white strands drifted away, transforming into all the Divine Abilities Wang Lin had witnessed during the First Step, such as the Extinction Finger, Yellow Springs Finger, Demon Transformation Finger, and so on.

Among these Divine Abilities, some were ones he had mastered, and others were ones he had seen others perform.

After hundreds of white strands, the three thousand strands of the horsetail whisk continued to separate from the root, transforming into Divine Abilities once again. Among them were the Divine Abilities of Qing Shui, Situ Nan, and Bai Fan's Summon Wind, Summon Rain, Mountain Collapse, and Earth Shatter.

All of this happened in an instant. The three thousand white strands, right before Wang Lin and outside the Rift, astonishingly transformed into three thousand types of Divine Abilities that Wang Lin had witnessed throughout his life.

Also included were the Divine Abilities of Qing Lin, Daoist Shui, Elder Lu, and others, and even the Divine Abilities of the Five Venerables of the Ancient Times and the First Generation Vermilion Bird and Second Generation Vermilion Bird!

Three thousand whisk strands, Three Thousand Great Daos, Three Thousand Divine Abilities! Almost half of all the techniques that existed in Wang Lin's memory appeared in the Star Domain at this moment.

These three thousand Divine Abilities perfectly fused with each other. With a sweep of the horsetail whisk, they enveloped the entire Star Domain around Wang Lin, roaring as they rushed toward him.

Perhaps one, two, or even a hundred Divine Abilities wouldn't matter, and even three thousand coming together wouldn't harm Wang Lin. But these three thousand Divine Abilities were manifested by the Heavenly Tribulation Horsetail Whisk, and every single Divine Ability emanated an aura familiar to Wang Lin: Immortal Power!

Because of this, their power was enough to shake heaven and earth.

This Immortal Qi was not the Qi of Immortal Jade contained within the Inner Realm's Four Great Immortal Realms, but the true Qi of an Immortal, the golden light derived from the Bloodline. Had he not encountered a madman, and had Wang Lin's glabella not possessed the golden blood formed by the Immortal Undying Body, he definitely would not have been able to recognize the power that unleashed these three thousand Divine Abilities.

But at this moment, he instantly sensed it. His pupils contracted as he looked at the three thousand Divine Abilities roaring and spreading all around him, and killing intent flashed in his eyes.

"I suspected before that this Heavenly Tribulation came from the Ancient Immortal Realm, and the world behind that Rift is the Ancient Immortal Realm. Now that I feel this pure Immortal Qi, it is evident that this Ancient Immortal Realm is strongly connected to the Immortal Astral Continent!"

Bursts of Pale Golden Light flickered from within the three thousand Divine Abilities, rushing straight toward Wang Lin. These Divine Abilities roared, instantly approaching Wang Lin's surroundings and descending one by one.

The sounds of booming shook heaven and earth at this moment, causing the Star Domain to tremble. Under the nearly frantic bombardment, Wang Lin's figure was directly obscured by the Pale Golden Light, and from afar, his silhouette could no longer be seen.

At the same time, another object flew out of the Rift. This object was a Nine-Story Pagoda. The entire tower was golden, and an Unparalleled Pressure arose mightily from it. It drifted out of the Rift, expanded on its own after appearing, and instantly grew to Tens of Thousands of Zhang in size, thundering down to suppress the location where Wang Lin's figure was obscured by golden light.

The Three Thousand Strands of the Horsetail Whisk—a Heavenly Tribulation!

The Pagoda Suppressing Body—another Heavenly Tribulation!

This Third Step Heavenly Tribulation targeting Wang Lin was unprecedented, and its power was astonishing! If Wang Lin's cultivation was only at the Early Stage of void nirvana, he would undoubtedly die!

Even if his cultivation reached the Great Perfection of void nirvana, he would still collapse and die under this Heavenly Tribulation!

Even with his current Middle Stage of Void Spirit, if he only possessed a Single Origin like Ordinary Mighty Figures, he would definitely have no chance of survival under this Heavenly Tribulation!

The nine-story golden Pagoda roared as it directly enveloped the spot being bombarded by the Three Thousand Great Daos. Following a violent crash, everything fell silent.

The only thing remaining in the Million-Mile Range of Fog was this nine-story golden Pagoda, which seemed to have existed Since Time Immemorial!

Outside the fog, Nan Yunzi and the others were immediately shocked by the sudden silence. Nan Yunzi stared at the fog, anxiety showing in his eyes.

Situ Nan was silent, faintly sensing that something was wrong. Without a word, he swayed his body, ready to rush into the fog, but as he moved, Nan Yunzi immediately blocked his way with a wave of his right hand.

"Nan Yunzi!! You dare stop me!!!" Situ Nan spun his head abruptly, his eyes filled with madness, staring fiercely at Nan Yunzi. His words carried Monstrous Killing Intent.

He knew he was no match for Nan Yunzi, but at this moment, sensing Wang Lin was in dire danger, given Situ Nan's temperament, he would unhesitatingly act even if his Master Qing Lin stood before him.

Nan Yunzi did not mind Situ Nan's words. Instead, he remained silent for a moment before speaking in a deep voice.

"The Venerable Seal is Undergoing Tribulation. We must not interfere… If you force your way in, not only will it be useless, but it will also distract him."

Situ Nan's gaze fell upon the fog. He clenched his fists, remained silent for a moment, and then his hoarse voice slowly emerged.

"We wait for Half an Incense Stick of Time. If it is still this quiet inside after Half an Incense Stick of Time, I must go in!"

Nan Yunzi sighed inwardly, saying nothing. The anxiety in his eyes, fixed on the fog, deepened.

In another direction, Elder Zhan's expression grew more excited, and his eyes flickered with light. He licked his lips and muttered to himself.

"The Three-Nine Horsetail Whisk, the Immortal Suppressing Pagoda, and there should be one more item called the Fate Sealing Ring… When he set up the Mansion Heavenly Tribulation inside his mansion back then, he threw these three Magic Treasures into it…" Elder Zhan's words were inscrutable. As he muttered, his gaze toward the fog grew increasingly strange.

Time slowly passed. Half an Incense Stick of Time felt as slow as several long years to Situ Nan. The thousands of Inner Realm Cultivators grew nervous, sensing that something was wrong.

"Could the Venerable Seal have failed his Undergoing Tribulation…"

"Impossible, the Venerable Seal would never fail…"

"It has been silent for so long, what exactly happened inside…"

Panic began to breed in the minds of the thousands of Inner Realm Cultivators, making them all extremely anxious. Just as Situ Nan became increasingly unable to control himself and wanted to rush into the fog, a deafening, violent roar suddenly erupted from within the fog that had been silent for Half an Incense Stick of Time!

Deep within the Million-Mile Range of Fog, the sole existing Pagoda suddenly trembled violently. The roaring sound thundered out from within it.

Inside the Pagoda, amidst the Chaos, Wang Lin's entire body was entangled by three thousand white strands. These three thousand strands were precisely the three thousand Divine Abilities. When these Divine Abilities landed on Wang Lin, they reverted to their Origin form, becoming strands again, tightly wrapping around Wang Lin, like a Seal.

Furthermore, bursts of golden light enveloped the inside of the Pagoda. That light was filled with a Domineering Will, intending to refine Wang Lin with light, and melt Wang Lin with this Immortal Power!

However, this Heavenly Tribulation did not know that within Wang Lin's glabella existed the purest Immortal Bloodline in this heaven and earth!

"So-called Heavenly Tribulation, are these all the Divine Abilities there are… If that is truly the case, this Heavenly Tribulation… is too weak!" Wang Lin, wrapped in the three thousand white strands, shook his head. His body suddenly swelled outward. The Ancient God Star Point at his glabella rapidly spun, and bursts of Ancient God Power flowed throughout Wang Lin's body, causing his physique to wildly inflate with a crash.

Ten zhang, thirty zhang, a hundred zhang… until Several Hundred Zhang, looking like a giant. The white strands wrapped around his body were stretched taut, and some even shattered directly. Finally, the moment Wang Lin's body became an Ancient God, as the Ancient God Aura suddenly spread out from his body, all the white strands completely disintegrated!

"Unable to withstand a single blow…" Wang Lin shook his head again, stepping upward. He abruptly clenched his right fist, and Ancient God Power surged up like a huge wave. With one punch, he smashed toward the ceiling inside the Pagoda above!

The weather in the Northeast, especially in Mudanjiang, is only hot for about half a month every year, so not many people install Air Conditioners.

It's very hot this year. My head is dizzy and heavy; I must have Heatstroke. I feel terrible, my chest is tight, and I want to vomit but can't.

This chapter took nearly six hours to write, finishing it intermittently. I can't bear it anymore. I'm taking half a day off and will definitely make it up by the end of the month.

Please don't blame me, my body is in great discomfort.
