Chapter 1677: Ancient Mystery, Heavenly Fate Child Falls for the Trap! (Second Update)

The storm formed by the dao ancient Bloodline Power dissipated. Within this Star Domain, aside from the rock beneath Wang Lin, there were no longer any scattered stones. After the storm vanished, silence reigned.

Wang Lin looked up toward the east. In that direction, he once again sensed the aura of Heavenly Fate Child. Illusory shadows gradually materialized around Wang Lin's body, slowly overlapping. His body separated, and his Original Body stepped out.

The instant his Original Body stepped out, Wang Lin's Clone raised its right hand and grabbed the Void Realm, immediately summoning the Ghost Face Sail into its grasp. With a forward wave, the Ghost Face Sail instantly expanded, shrouding everything here in an illusion.

Within the illusion, Wang Lin looked at his Clone, his eyes flashing with cold light.

"The Three Destinies Divine Ability is definitely not a technique that can be copied. If I were to destroy my Clone at all costs, or die once using the Three Destinies technique, then all of Heavenly Fate Child's schemes would collapse!

However, the price of doing so is too high, and it's somewhat unworthy! Heavenly Fate Child, since you want to play this game with me, let's see who the true winner is!" Wang Lin muttered. His Clone raised its right hand and pointed a finger at the center of his Original Body's brow.

A whistling sound echoed through the Star Domain at that instant. Wang Lin's Clone's eyes shone with a strange light, and his fingertip seemed to pierce deep into the center of his Original Body's brow, touching its very soul.

In a flash, the Ghost Face Sail cloth surrounding them simultaneously coiled up, transforming into a patch of mist that formed a gigantic ghost face, shrinking toward Wang Lin's brow.

From afar, this scene was astonishing. The vast amount of mist surged and condensed, with the majority entering the center of Wang Lin's Original Body's brow, and a portion spreading over Wang Lin's skin, completely covering his entire body.

Wang Lin's Clone's face was slightly pale. He lifted his right hand from the center of the Original Body's brow, turned around, and bowed toward the Star Domain.

"Senior Blue Dream, Senior Qing Lin, and Senior Hongshanzi, my Original Body is right here. I ask the three Seniors to act as Protectors for me!"

The moment Wang Lin's words spread, blue light flashed in the Star Domain, and Daoist Blue Dream stepped out. Behind him, Qing Lin and Hongshanzi silently followed.

The three of them had actually arrived long ago and witnessed Wang Lin's several confrontations with Heavenly Fate Child.

"With this old man here, you can rest assured. If you can find his Original Body, no matter how high his Original Body's cultivation is, he won't be able to escape!" Daoist Blue Dream sat cross-legged in front of Wang Lin's Original Body, looking at Wang Lin's Clone, and spoke slowly.

Wang Lin nodded, cupped his fist toward Blue Dream and the other two, turned, and stepped into the Star Domain, heading east, where Heavenly Fate Child's aura resided.

As he proceeded, the drop of water and the small handful of dirt appeared in his palm. He clenched his hand, putting away these two samples of Origin.

"Besides having the Original Body search for Heavenly Fate Child's Original Body, I also need to make other preparations with this Clone… Moreover, once Heavenly Fate Child gets anxious, he might manifest all his Clones simultaneously, hoping to use this method to win before I find his Original Body. I look forward to him doing that." Wang Lin mused. As he traveled through the Star Domain, he performed Hand Seals with his right hand and pressed them onto his chest.

At this instant, the soul residing in Wang Lin's Clone changed. His soul had long ago become a Soul Devourer, capable of devouring everything, including himself.

The Clone's soul concentrated all his Origin; even the Primordial Spirit was inextricably linked to this soul. Once the Clone's soul died, everything would vanish into thin air.

"My Original Body possesses all my memories. Since I was able to comprehend my Origin, even if I lose them, I can regain them! After all, Origin comes from comprehension, and comprehension also exists within the soul of my Original Body!

Heavenly Fate Child, this game is yours to lose!" The mark on Wang Lin's right hand flashed, merged into his chest, and disappeared.

He no longer hesitated. His mind even completely merged with the soul of the Heavenly Fate Child Clone that was growing stronger within his body, and he headed toward the east.

In the eastern part of the Zhaohe Star Domain, in the boundless Star Domain, Heavenly Fate Child's figure materialized. The strange smile was gone from his lips, and his expression was far from calm, instead being grim as water.

He gazed into the distance, cold light flickering in his eyes.

"Wang Lin, if you want to kill my Original Body, you must first find its location. I myself have forgotten where my Original Body is; how could you possibly find it? I don't believe you can find it… However, this Wang Lin is cunning, and his recent words did not seem false… For him to rise from a minor Cultivator to his current state, he must possess extraordinary methods, so I must guard against him… Forget it, I won't waste any more time on him. I must complete my plan immediately. Even if there are still some flaws, it doesn't matter!

Once completed, I will fall into slumber and await the ninety-ninth Awakening. With this Awakening, I will fully achieve my desire!

Wang Lin, your cultivation is enough to ensure that this period of slumber will end in an instant, resulting in the ninety-ninth Awakening!" Cold light flashed in Heavenly Fate Child's eyes. He raised his hands and abruptly closed his eyes. The moment his eyes shut, hundreds of identical Heavenly Fate Child figures materialized in different parts of the Zhaohe Star Domain.

The moment these Heavenly Fate Child figures materialized, they simultaneously looked in one direction: the moving Wang Lin in the Star Domain!

Furthermore, at this very moment, within the Kunxu Star Domain, on many Cultivation Planets or in the Star Domain itself, waves of ripples twisted, and Heavenly Fate Child figures materialized one after another.

The instant they appeared, they also simultaneously looked toward the distant Zhaohe!

Simultaneously, in the two great Star Domains of Luotian and Yunhai, countless Heavenly Fate Child Clones appeared amidst echoing ripples. The Clones across the four great Star Domains totaled nearly three thousand!

These were Heavenly Fate Child's three thousand Clones, and they were all the bodies he had continuously devoured throughout his ninety-plus Awakenings!

The moment these nearly three thousand Clones appeared across the four great Star Domains of the Inner Realm, Wang Lin's advancing figure in the Star Domain abruptly paused, and his eyes shone brightly.

"He fell for the trap!!" The soul of Heavenly Fate Child within Wang Lin's Clone seemed to boil and awaken at this moment, spreading throughout Wang Lin's body and echoing with the three thousand Clones in the Inner Realm. At this instant, it was as if Wang Lin had become Heavenly Fate Child's true Clone!

Within Wang Lin's mind, he sensed all three thousand of Heavenly Fate Child's Clones. He clearly knew the location of every Clone and felt the aura of every Clone. All these auras belonged entirely to Heavenly Fate Child!

Wang Lin originally could not find Heavenly Fate Child's Original Body, but his cunning was deep enough to dare to scheme against Heavenly Fate Child. While Heavenly Fate Child was scheming against him, he was also scheming against Heavenly Fate Child!

His previous words seemed ordinary, but every sentence contained profound meaning. With these words, Wang Lin finally forced Heavenly Fate Child to change his plan. While wary of Wang Lin, and in order to quickly seize Wang Lin's Clone, he summoned all three thousand of his Clones, hoping to use this speed to make Wang Lin fail in a very short time!

But Heavenly Fate Child had absolutely not anticipated that Wang Lin had no certainty of finding his Original Body before this moment, yet now, Wang Lin had gained confidence!

His confidence was given by Heavenly Fate Child! It was given by these three thousand Clones of Heavenly Fate Child!

By leveraging the aura of the opponent's three thousand Clones, Wang Lin could completely lock onto Heavenly Fate Child, locking onto all his Clones. In this way, he could use these auras to search for the root—the Original Body!

This was like searching using a single route, where it might be difficult to find the source amidst the complexity. But now, Heavenly Fate Child had personally given Wang Lin three thousand paths. Consequently, his entire being was laid bare before Wang Lin's eyes!

The light in Wang Lin's eyes was extremely bright, looking like a brilliant moon from afar. A smile appeared on his face, and performing Hand Seals with both hands, he abruptly pointed toward the center of his brow!

"Using these three thousand soul auras as a guide, the Dream Dao as the path, borrowing the Ghost Sail to enter the illusion, dreaming into the three thousand bodies, and returning through the path of Reincarnation! I shall pursue Heavenly Fate Child's Original Body!" The moment Wang Lin pointed at the center of his brow, Wang Lin's Original Body, guarded by Daoist Blue Dream and the two others deep within the Zhaohe Star Domain, suddenly opened his eyes from his closed state.

"I know the way to find his Original Body!" A strange light shone from his eyes, spreading throughout his entire body. Wang Lin's Original Body's mind boomed, and using the opponent's three thousand soul auras, he opened the path of Dream Return to a Thousand Years.

Everything before Wang Lin's Original Body blurred. Time seemed to reverse in his eyes. Following the path of Heavenly Fate Child's three thousand soul auras, he entered a dreamlike illusion.

This was Wang Lin's Dream Dao technique, borrowing the illusionary restriction of the Ghost Face Sail cloth, and using Heavenly Fate Child's three thousand Clones as a guide, allowing Wang Lin to immerse himself in the world of those three thousand Clones, or rather, to immerse himself in Heavenly Fate Child's Reincarnation and Awakening, to trace his root source, the location of his Original Body!

This was the method Wang Lin devised to counterattack Heavenly Fate Child!

At this moment, within Wang Lin's Original Body's mind, he was immersed in a blurred world, but soon, the blurring dissipated, and everything clearly unfolded before Wang Lin's eyes.

What he saw was the Star Domain, a Star Domain he was familiar with—it was still Zhaohe. He saw a meteorite floating in the Star Domain, and inside that meteorite, Wang Lin saw Heavenly Fate Child! Opposite Heavenly Fate Child, an unconscious old man was sitting cross-legged. That old man was none other than Marquis Ling Tian!

Heavenly Fate Child sat there cross-legged, his expression showing pain. On his right hand, there was some residual blood. If Wang Lin was not mistaken, this blood was precisely the altered Heavenly Dao Blood that the opponent had snatched from the Azure Dragon Saint Emperor!

The pain in Heavenly Fate Child's expression intensified. After an unknown amount of time, he let out bursts of low growls. His eyes snapped open, and within them, illusory figures rapidly flickered—these figures were his individual Clones!

Staring at Marquis Ling Tian, he suddenly opened his mouth. His mouth enlarged boundlessly, and with an extremely bizarre gulp, he devoured Marquis Ling Tian. The moment he finished devouring him, Heavenly Fate Child's eyes showed confusion, and he slowly closed them.

Time flowed seemingly without end. One day, several hundred years later, Heavenly Fate Child's eyes opened directly, revealing a daze.

"I have awakened again… I have also prepared the power for the next slumber and Awakening… He is Wang Lin…"

Although the passage of time was slow in what Wang Lin saw, in reality, the experience lasted only an instant for him.

"He devoured Marquis Ling Tian, so why did he say he awakened again… Just how many times has this Heavenly Fate Child awakened!" Everything before Wang Lin's eyes dispersed as Heavenly Fate Child awakened, but immediately, new scenes materialized again.
