Chapter 1609: Ancient Mystery, Going to Luotian (First Update)

The Life-and-Death Great Array evolved from the Vortex, solidifying into the Immovable Wheel of Samsara. If it remains still, life and death remain still; if it moves, life and death reverse!

As the massive wheel rotated, rumbling sounds seemed to come from Beyond the Domain, piercing the Void Realm and directly transmitting into this Star Domain shrouded in mist. A single rotation decided life and death!

A powerful pressure roared forth directly from the wheel, abruptly suppressing the Fragmented Continent below, which had already entered halfway through the Seal Array's opening.

This suppression restrained life and crushed death, grinding away all Souls and Primordial Spirits between life and death, collapsing everything tangible and intangible!

The Fragmented Continent trembled violently. Countless Rifts immediately appeared along its edges, collapsing with loud bangs into dust. This disintegration rapidly spread from the edges toward the continent's interior.

The roar surged heavenward, deafening. In almost an instant, the Rifts on the continent crisscrossed endlessly like ravines, turning into boundless howls that spread throughout the surroundings.

The trembling of the continent grew increasingly fierce with the rotation of the Immovable Wheel of Samsara. Many Outer Realm Cultivators on the continent turned pale, spitting out blood under this suppression. Thumping sounds echoed within their bodies, and their expressions were extremely painful.

Some with weaker cultivation had their Physical Bodies collapse from the suppression, their Primordial Spirits sealed within their heads and flung upwards.

Furthermore, the massive Temple that had already taken shape at the center of the continent was now trembling, covered in Rifts. Under the slow rotation of the Immovable Wheel of Samsara above, it violently collapsed, kicking up dust and turning into ruins.

The old man standing atop it had blood spilling from the corner of his mouth, and fear filled his eyes. He struggled and roared, leaping up. As he performed Hand Seals, a Black Wind howled around his body, swirling into a Vortex. From afar, it looked like a gigantic, Chilling Mouth, heading straight for the Immovable Wheel of Samsara above, seemingly intending to swallow the wheel whole!

To Wang Lin, this action could only be described by four words!

Overestimating one's abilities!

This old man overestimated his abilities, daring to swallow Wang Lin’s Life-and-Death Great Array. Was he worthy of swallowing this array? A cold light flashed in Wang Lin’s eyes. With a cold snort, the Immovable Wheel of Samsara floating above the continent suddenly moved, slowly rotating once more!

The instant it rotated, the massive Chilling Mouth formed by the old man's body, shrouded in Black Wind, roared forward. It continuously expanded, eventually reaching hundreds of thousands of feet in size, barely exceeding the Life-and-Death Great Array, and swallowed it in one gulp.

The old man had no choice. He knew he could not escape. If he didn't fight desperately, he would surely die. Since death was inevitable either way, why not try to fight? If he succeeded, he would not only escape the Life-and-Death Calamity but also gain great fame!

Under a savage roar, the massive Chilling Mouth formed by the old man instantly swallowed the Life-and-Death Great Array. But precisely at that moment, waves of agonizing screams erupted from within the chilling mouth. A heaven-shaking power burst forth from inside the Black Mist mouth, a power that contained life, death, and suppression.

With a bang, the large mouth made of Black Mist immediately collapsed, tearing into pieces and suddenly rolling back toward the surroundings. From afar, this scene was astonishing, like the Aura of a Clear Sky appearing after the clouds and mist were swept away. As the mist collapsed, the Immovable Wheel of Samsara formed by the Life-and-Death Great Array reappeared!

At that instant, a mighty force surged into the old man's body from within the collapsing Black Mist. Spitting blood, his body plummeted toward the ground, crashing with a loud boom directly into the ruined Temple.

The roar echoed. The continent, covered in endless Rifts, shook again. Where the old man landed, a massive thousand-foot-wide Deep Pit appeared!

Inside the Deep Pit, the old man was lacerated all over, blood staining his clothes. His expression was weak, and the fear in his eyes had reached its limit. He struggled, trying to stand up.

But right then, as Wang Lin flicked his sleeve, he raised his right hand and pointed downward. The massive Immovable Wheel of Samsara above roared as it descended nine inches!

Nine represents calamity; its descent caused the sky to collapse and the earth to tear!

As it pressed down, the old man struggling to stand up spat out blood again. His body was violently forced down by an immense suppressive force, leaving him utterly powerless to break free, and he crashed into the ground once more.

Under the continuous tremors, the entire continent began to collapse again. Giant fragments of rock crumbled and separated toward the surroundings, constantly turning into dust.

The remaining Outer Realm Cultivators on the continent had their Physical Bodies suddenly collapse, resulting in countless deaths. Only a few with profound cultivation sat cross-legged on the trembling earth, desperately resisting. Their faces were deathly pale, revealing despair.

"The Cloud Sea Massacre is over!" Wang Lin closed his eyes and waved his right hand forward.

The Life-and-Death Immovable Wheel of Samsara floating above the collapsing continent suddenly descended another nine inches amidst the roaring sound! During this nine-inch descent, the old man suppressed within the Deep Pit let out the final, agonizing scream of his life from within his Physical Body.

His body instantly exploded. As flesh and blood splattered, the head, which sealed his Primordial Spirit and Soul, was swept up into the air by the force of the Physical Body's explosion.

The moment this old man died, the bodies of the Outer Realm Cultivators desperately resisting on the continent instantly collapsed, dying with loud bangs!

With the extinction of all living beings, the continent completely collapsed, splitting into countless scattered fragments. However, every fragment that scattered continued to shatter amidst constant roaring until it became dust!

Even the half of the continent that extended into the Seal Array's opening could not escape destruction; it too turned into dust, vanishing eternally beneath the starry sky!

The moment Wang Lin opened his eyes, thousands of heads, including that of the Third Step old man, howled toward him, becoming part of the tens of thousands that gathered behind Wang Lin.

After a final glance at the Cloud Sea, Wang Lin turned and walked toward his ultimate destination!

That place was Luotian. Many people Wang Lin knew were there. That place was the site of the Decisive Battle!

Wang Lin walked toward Luotian step by step. Behind him, the agonizing screams of tens of thousands of heads spread across the starry sky. Beneath him, the Immovable Wheel of Samsara, formed by life and death, followed.

"Karma Array, form!" Wang Lin's voice faintly seemed to arrive. The moment his voice fell, the tens of thousands of heads behind him howled into the sky, rapidly rotating above Wang Lin, forming another massive Vortex.

Wang Lin raised his right hand, spread his five fingers, and abruptly pressed down toward the Vortex composed of heads. With this press, the Vortex rotated even faster. Amidst the roaring, the tens of thousands of heads blurred together, their features no longer discernible.

Wang Lin slowly clenched his right hand into a fist. The moment his fist fully closed, the heavens and earth roared. The Vortex, rapidly spinning, solidified once again, transforming into the Karma Immovable Wheel of Samsara, floating above Wang Lin.

From afar, Wang Lin now had two massive wheels, one above and one below his body. He stood in the center, like an Immortal God who commanded life, death, and Karma. His flowing white hair exuded an extreme, murderous chill.

"Luotian…" Wang Lin's figure flickered forward. Accompanied by the two wheels above and below, his body suddenly vanished. When he reappeared, he had stepped directly into Luotian!

Within the Luotian Star Domain, inside the Great Array composed of nine hundred and ninety-nine Cultivation Planets, which was surrounded layer upon layer by hundreds of thousands of Outer Realm Cultivators, all the remaining Inner Realm Cultivators showed tragic determination. They knew that in this war, the Inner Realm had lost!

These nine hundred and ninety Cultivation Planets were chosen by them from the Four Great Star Domains; they were the Inner Realm's final Foundation. But now, they could not prevent these Cultivation Planets from showing signs of collapse under the Divine Abilities of the Outer Realm Cultivators, seemingly ready to be destroyed at any moment.

A heaven-shaking roar that caused the starry sky to tremble erupted at this moment. A Cultivation Planet, having endured until now, could no longer hold on. It collapsed with loud bangs and exploded, turning into a storm that swept across the surroundings.

The continent of the Cultivation Planet shattered, the seawater vaporized, and the entire star body split apart, rolling back as countless fragments. The Star Soul of this planet dissipated into thin air.

The moment the Cultivation Planet collapsed, the roaring of the Outer Realm Cultivators arrived. Hundreds of thousands of Cultivators charged out simultaneously, each displaying Divine Abilities and taking out Magic Treasures, launching another wave of frantic attacks against the array of the remaining Cultivation Planets.

Such attacks had been ongoing for several months. Although they failed to break the Star Array each time, they caused many Cultivation Planets to collapse.

As of today, there were no longer nine hundred and ninety-nine Cultivation Planets here, but fewer than three hundred!

The Third Step Mighty Experts who attacked were all below empty profound. The few empty profound Mighty Experts did not make a move; instead, they floated around, watching coldly. Their purpose was to prevent the Inner Realm Cultivators from launching a Mutually Destructive Attack by destroying the Star Array.

There were five empty profound Mighty Experts in total. Three of them were Immortal Consorts. Two had participated in the battle during Wang Lin's Life-and-Death Calamity, and the third was dressed in purple, resembling a noblewoman.

Besides them, Wang Lin was also familiar with the other two empty profound Mighty Experts: the Old Woman and the Black-Robed Old Man who had fought him during the Life-and-Death Calamity back then.

Everyone who appeared during the Life-and-Death Calamity back then—except for the Venerable Master, the deceased Middle-Aged Scholar, and the Void God Heavenly Venerate—was here!

With these empty profound Mighty Experts present, the Inner Realm Cultivators, after multiple attempts, were ultimately unable to Destroy Planets and Perish Together. They could only watch helplessly as the Star Array was destroyed piece by piece.

Among the Outer Realm Cultivators, besides the empty profound Mighty Experts, there were seven others. These seven people had cultivation ranging from void nirvana to Empty Spirit. It was these seven who led the Outer Realm Cultivators in bombarding the Star Array from seven directions.

The roaring sound spread throughout Luotian, entering their ears and shaking their minds.

Besides these seven people, surrounded by a group of Outer Realm Cultivators, there was also a woman. This woman was extremely beautiful. She watched the Star Array coldly, though worry was subtly hidden in her expression.

She was the Main Body of Yunluo Dasi, whose Clone had died!
