Chapter 1670: Ancient Mystery, Restriction Origin (First Update)

In this Immortal Cave Realm, whether it was the Inner Prefecture or the Outer Prefecture, or even any Rift space existing in the Starry Sky, it was rare to find such a vast number of Restrictions that had almost formed a storm.

These Restrictions were originally just individual mark Runes, but now, due to their sheer number, they overlapped densely, making it impossible to discern their true appearance. One could only see a hazy, faint light, twisting and spinning amidst bursts of whistling, looking like an immense, boundless storm.

This spectacular scene was destined to be perceived only by Wang Lin. Even the Vicious Beasts existing within the Cloud Sea Rift chose to steer clear of this Restriction Storm. One by one, the Vicious Beasts fled frantically from all directions inside the Rift toward the exit, filled with terror.

This sight was like a Beast Tide. As the Vicious Beasts surged out of the Rift, in just a few days, the area outside the Cloud Sea Rift was saturated with countless Vicious Beasts.

They did not leave too far, merely watching the Rift Space from outside the Rift, trembling, their eyes filled with fear.

The Beast Tide at the Cloud Sea Rift attracted the attention of many people. Some wanted to venture inside to see what was happening, but the Restriction Storm within the Rift caused all who attempted to enter to retreat in shock and fear!

The storm inside the Rift continued to swirl, its whooshing sound spreading everywhere like ghostly wailing. Deep within this massive collection of Restrictions, Wang Lin sat cross-legged in the Starry Sky. His eyes were closed, and beneath his eyelids, his pupils flickered with Deduction.

The Ghost Face Canvas was cut open by Wang Lin, forming this Restriction Storm. Wang Lin was not the slightest bit flustered; everything was within his expectations. His mind and body were calm as he continuously performed Deduction, slowly exploring the Restriction Origin.

Restrictions were essentially Formations. To comprehend their Origin, one needed extremely powerful Divine Sense. Wang Lin's cultivation had reached the Ethereal Middle Stage, making his Divine Sense strong enough to sense this Origin. At this moment, his Divine Sense spread out, enveloping the Rift Space. As he continuously performed Deduction, the Restrictions within his Divine Sense gradually decreased.

This decrease was not due to vanishing into thin air, but Fusion; every two Restrictions merged together to form one.

As time passed, the speed of this Fusion gradually accelerated. Eventually, almost every moment, numerous Restrictions would disappear, and new Restrictions would appear.

"The Restriction Origin is a Power of Calculation. This calculation encompasses heaven and earth, even allowing one to deduce the future and alter the trajectory of their own Destiny. This requires extremely strong Divine Sense… Heavenly Fate Child deleted this technique. I couldn't understand it before, but now it seems Heavenly Fate Child likely concealed his astonishing mastery over Restrictions!" Wang Lin opened his eyes, a cold light flashing within them.

He was always wary of Heavenly Fate Child. This person was in the dark, like a gaze cast from the Void behind him, always making people feel uneasy, yet when he turned to look, he could never find the source of the gaze.

Seven days later, the Restriction Storm in the Rift Space significantly diminished. Nearly half of the countless Restrictions that existed before had now dissipated, all having undergone Fusion.

However, Wang Lin could not relax even slightly. He found that even though these Restrictions had undergone Fusion, their infinite Derivation was still ongoing. If he couldn't merge all these Restrictions into a single one in one go, they would soon derive even greater numbers.

Even now, the remaining half of the Restrictions showed subtle signs of Splitting. Just one instance of Splitting would be enough to make all of Wang Lin's previous efforts vanish into thin air!

His Divine Sense was like a large net, enveloping all these Restrictions. At this moment, his eyes flashed, and he once again used his Divine Sense for Deduction and compression.

The further he progressed, the harder it became for Wang Lin. His Divine Sense seemed to be split into countless parts, silently merging these Restrictions through endless Deduction.

Ten days passed in a flash. The area covered by Wang Lin's Divine Sense was halved again, and the number of Restrictions continued to decrease through Fusion. However, the Power of Splitting emanating from within them had almost reached the Peak.

Wang Lin remained motionless, but his expression was extremely solemn. He had already exerted the entirety of his Divine Sense and Deduction, searching for the Opportunity for the third Fusion.

After a long time, another ten days passed. The instant a small portion of the Restrictions began to split, Wang Lin suddenly opened his eyes.

"Restrictions are Formations, and Formations are also the Great Dao! Heaven and earth have Formations, which are Rules and Laws! Humans also have Formations, such as Destiny and Trajectory! Simply put, these Formation Restrictions are the Self-imposed Rules formulated by the Cultivator themselves!

Using these Self-imposed Rules to shake heaven and earth! Restrictions, merge again!" Wang Lin's eyes revealed a look of Enlightenment. As he muttered, the Restrictions covered by his Divine Sense boomed as they underwent Fusion!

This was the third Fusion!

After this Fusion, the Restrictions surrounding Wang Lin only numbered around ten million. However, each of these nearly ten million Restrictions was extremely complete, seemingly without any flaw, and contained a powerful Qi.

It was already very difficult for them to undergo Fusion again!

Wang Lin's face was pale. Fusing them three times was already his limit. The Deduction required for these Restrictions to eventually become a single one was far more difficult than he had imagined.

Furthermore, he couldn't relax even slightly. This invisible pressure forced Wang Lin to divide his Mind to maintain control, making his exhaustion even heavier.

"Restrictions, Merge!!" Wang Lin roared. His Divine Sense suddenly intensified, rapidly converging inward from the Eight Directions. Booming sounds echoed within the ten million Restrictions around Wang Lin. The sound shook the heavens. Under this compression, the Restrictions condensed together, forcibly merged by Wang Lin.

But just as this Fusion was halfway complete, several Restrictions immediately Collapsed during the process. Their Collapse was not disappearance, but Splitting into several times their original number. Under this Splitting, another portion of Restrictions subsequently Collapsed.

In this way, in just a few moments, these nearly ten million Restrictions immediately experienced a Sudden Increase, subtly forcing Wang Lin's Divine Sense not to contract, but to expand outward.

Wang Lin's eyes flashed with brilliance. If he didn't stop this immediately, his Deduction and Fusion attempt would fail! His body swayed, and his True Body immediately stepped out from within his physical form, leaving only his Clone sitting cross-legged in place.

As the True Body emerged, dao ancient Qi whistled and shook the heavens. Wang Lin's True Body swayed again, and the Ancient Fiend Body appeared, heading straight for one side. At the same time, the Ancient Demon Body simultaneously condensed amidst the monstrous Devilish Qi, moving toward another side.

The remaining Ancient God Body then sped backward, forming a Triangle around the surroundings with the Ancient Fiend Body and the Ancient Demon Body.

"Restrictions, Merge!!" Wang Lin's Clone looked ferocious and let out a low roar. His Divine Sense once again frantically compressed and condensed. Simultaneously, Wang Lin's True Body, transformed into the Ancient Three Races Clones, unleashed their cultivation power, merging it into his Divine Sense, causing the compression and Fusion to suddenly increase exponentially.

A roar echoed. Whether it was the Restrictions that were Splitting or those that were Fusing, all of them were forcibly condensed together in that instant by the simultaneous exertion of Wang Lin's True Body and Divine Sense.

In the blink of an eye, the number of Restrictions in this place greatly decreased. In the end, there were fewer than five million remaining around Wang Lin!

This was the fourth Fusion!

These five million Restrictions were like five million Wild Horses unwilling to be controlled, each emitting shocking light. If not for Wang Lin's Divine Sense tightly enveloping them, coupled with the restraint of his True Body's three forms, they would immediately Collapse and split in all directions.

Wang Lin's eyes were already bloodshot. Numerous Bloodshot lines filled his pupils, those fine threads intersecting and connecting, seeming to contain a strange set of Rules.

Everyone has eyes, pupils, and Bloodshot lines! But the shape and quantity of these Bloodshot lines are different for everyone! These Bloodshot lines were a manifestation of Wang Lin's exhaustion, a trace of his continuous Deduction over the past few days, and also the method he devised to assist in the birth of the Restriction Origin!

"Restrictions, fifth Fusion!" Wang Lin raised his right hand and performed Hand Seals. The Six Paths Origin within his body suddenly materialized. As the Six Paths Origin emerged, the Starry Sky trembled, transforming into six Long Swords. They shot up into the sky and instantly whistled down, two for each of the True Body's three forms, surrounding Wang Lin's Clone in the very center.

The moment the six swords descended, the five million Restrictions were forcibly merged once again. A roar echoed. Before long, the Restrictions in this place underwent the sixth, seventh, and eighth Fusions through this continuous merging!

Fusion after Fusion changed the quantity. Furthermore, some Restrictions didn't just merge two at a time, but three, four, five, and so on.

As a result, after the eighth Fusion, only a few thousand Restrictions remained around Wang Lin!

Each of these few thousand Restrictions contained the Four Great Restrictions, and some even belonged outside the Immortal Cave Realm. They were tens of feet in size, swirling around and emitting vibrating sounds.

Staring at these few thousand Restrictions, the Bloodshot lines in Wang Lin's eyes increased.

"Three thousand one hundred seventy-two… that's enough!" Wang Lin suddenly stood up, raised his right hand, and slapped his chest directly. With this slap, he spat out fresh blood.

As this mouthful of fresh blood appeared, Wang Lin immediately flicked his sleeve, and the blood split into three thousand one hundred seventy-two portions, heading straight into every Restriction around him.

"Blood Restriction, ninth Fusion!!" Wang Lin roared. Using his blood as a Medium, he merged these three thousand-plus Restrictions again. During this Fusion, bloody light surged into the sky. The Restrictions boomed, intertwining and overlapping. As the bloody light grew denser, in the end, only nine Restrictions remained floating before Wang Lin!!

Nine Restrictions, each a thousand feet in size, like small mountains, stood towering in the Starry Sky, emitting an Ancient aura!

But the instant these nine Restrictions finished merging, one of them suddenly Collapsed, Splitting into countless pieces that swept outward.

Immediately afterward, several other Restrictions Shattered simultaneously. This sudden change left Wang Lin no time to think. He raised his right hand and pointed directly at his Right Eye.

Following this touch, Wang Lin's Right Eye sprayed out a Blood Mist. Within that mist, a massive Pupil Phantom suddenly materialized before Wang Lin. That pupil was filled with countless Bloodshot lines!
