Chapter 1682: Ancient Mystery, Re-condensing Origin (First Update)

Wang Lin sat exhaustedly on the back of the Nether Beast. If the Nether Beast's body were fully unfurled, it would be enormous, but at this moment, it had shrunk considerably, only about a thousand zhang in size. Yet, even so, as it moved through the starry sky, it still instilled a sense of pressure in the hearts of all who saw it.

This pressure came from the Nether Beast's body, and even more so from the coldness and ruthlessness in its eyes. This ruthlessness was indifference, indifference to life and death, Reincarnation, time, and all living beings!

It was as if, in the Nether Beast's gaze, what did all living beings matter? It was the Heavenly Dao, the true deity of this Immortal Cave Realm. Everything here evolved from it; Cultivators and Vicious Beasts alike were but dust!

Similarly, this pressure also came from Wang Lin, who sat cross-legged on the Nether Beast. Although Wang Lin merely sat there peacefully, the Aura emanating from him was like that of an Immortal God!

Wang Lin possessed the dao ancient Bloodline, a nobility that could rival the Immortal Bloodline of the madman. Such a Wang Lin, though still a person of the Immortal Cave Realm, had the right to look down upon all living beings even on the Immortal Astral Continent!

The Nether Beast moved silently, or rather, it didn't move at all; what moved was the starry sky. It was as if, in this starry sky, it could go anywhere in a single thought, because this starry sky, everything here, belonged to it!

Wang Lin sat there calmly, gently stroking the Nether Beast, scenes with Heavenly Fate Child constantly surfacing in his mind.

"I never expected that this beast I subdued back then was actually a part of the Heavenly Dao… Heavenly Fate Child was also a part of the Heavenly Dao… No wonder he believed in heavenly fate… The heavenly fate he believed in was actually himself." Wang Lin looked down at the Nether Beast beneath him, a deep sense of emotion in his eyes.

"The fragment that Seven-Colored Immortal Venerable obtained back then, which flew out from the Primordial God Realm, that fragment was for storage. He discovered the Heavenly Dao within it… It's likely that even Heaven Defying was discovered by him.

Hence, there was that Compass."

"Everyone is searching for this Heavenly Dao. Seven-Colored Daoist, Old Ghost Zhan, and others, their purpose in seeking the third soul, besides wanting to fuse with it, is probably also to scheme for the Heavenly Dao… And that storage fragment obtained by Seven-Colored Immortal Venerable.

By chance, I became the master of the Heavenly Dao… From now on, I am the owner of this Heavenly Dao. I cannot be certain about the Immortal Astral Continent, but within this Immortal Cave Realm, no one can snatch the Heavenly Dao from me!

This Heavenly Dao should be complete now. It was able to devour even Daofei back then. Now, I'll see who dares to provoke me, to become the first to be devoured by the Heavenly Dao after countless ages, my enemy!"

A powerful confidence surged through Wang Lin. He looked at the distant starry sky, a sharp glint in his eyes!

Without spreading his Divine Sense, Wang Lin allowed the Nether Beast to drift freely in the starry sky. He closed his eyes, placed his hands, forming Hand Seals, on his knees. After a brief period of adjustment, he suddenly opened his eyes, bit his tongue, and spat out a mouthful of fresh blood.

This mouthful of crimson blood, after being spat out, floated before Wang Lin, moving in sync with the Nether Beast beneath him. The blood wriggled, emitting a dazzling light, as if boiling, and a fragrant aroma spread forth.

"My Clone has dissipated, so I shall condense another Clone! This Clone, with my blood as the guide, shall achieve the Great Dao of eternity!" Wang Lin murmured, raising his right hand and pointing at the blood.

With this指, the blood wriggled faster, instantly expanding and gradually forming a human figure. However, it was permeated with a bloody color, appearing like a blood person.

"My blood contains the power of dao ancient. Now that this Clone is to be formed, the dao ancient power within it must be extracted. This is not difficult!" Wang Lin's eyes flashed, and the three-clan star points in his glabella and eyes suddenly emerged, rotating as if emitting waves of suction. The moment they enveloped the blood person, the blood person twisted, and wisps of smoke-like Qi seemed to float out from within, continuously drilling into Wang Lin's three-clan stars.

The process was swift, taking about an incense stick's time. All the dao ancient power in the blood person was extracted by Wang Lin. The blood that remained now had no dao ancient Aura.

As the dao ancient Aura separated, the blood person's red light flickered, and amidst waves of distortion, the bloody color slowly receded. What appeared before Wang Lin was, astonishingly, a Clone identical to him!

This Clone was like a newborn, though it appeared adult, it actually had no soul, only a body.

"Soul Condensation!" Wang Lin's right hand tapped his glabella, and immediately a portion of his soul separated, flowing out from his seven orifices and entering the Clone's seven orifices. Slowly, as that wisp of Wang Lin's soul fused with the Clone's body, Wang Lin felt as if he and his Clone were perfectly blended, indistinguishable from each other.

Having done all this, Wang Lin's expression grew even more weary. He slowly closed his eyes, as if falling asleep.

The moment his main body's eyes closed, Wang Lin's Clone suddenly opened its eyes, revealing a bright light. Looking down at its newly condensed body, Wang Lin's expression was calm. He raised his right hand and pointed at the starry sky.

"The Origin of Fire that dissipated into this starry sky and was comprehended by me, return!"

The instant these words left his mouth, with the Nether Beast at the center, countless flames suddenly appeared in the vast starry sky. These flames grew more and more numerous, eventually forming a continuous expanse. From a distance, it looked as if the starry sky was burning, a raging sea of fire roaring into the heavens!

The sea of fire formed a ring, swirling around Wang Lin, gathering from all directions of the endless starry sky. This scene was like surging waves, rumbling ceaselessly.

Soon, as all the flames appearing in the starry sky approached Wang Lin, it was as if Wang Lin's left eye transformed into a black hole devouring flames. All the seas of fire surged into his left eye with a roar.

In an instant, the starry sky's sea of fire dissipated, and within Wang Lin's left eye, an Origin of Fire mark flickered into existence.

"The Origin of Thunder integrated into the starry sky, I am the Lord of Thunder. Through repeated enlightenments, I summon you back to my body!" Wang Lin said softly, his right hand suddenly waving forward.

With this wave, the starry sky trembled, and layers of ripples spread out from where the flames had dissipated, continuously extending. From a distant place, muffled rumbling gradually came, growing closer and closer. It came from all directions, and after a moment, the booming sound of thunder replaced all other sounds in the starry sky.

The rumbling was incessant and deafening. Moreover, under this thunder, streaks of lightning appeared in the starry sky like a Heavenly Tribulation. These lightning bolts linked together into a vast expanse, boundless and roaring as they rushed towards Wang Lin.

In an instant, all these lightning bolts converged towards Wang Lin's right eye, striking directly into it. With the Fusion of each lightning bolt, countless arcs of electricity surged throughout Wang Lin's body. These electric arcs seemed to cheer outside his body, rejoicing at returning to his control.

Soon, all the lightning in the starry sky dissipated before Wang Lin's right eye, and within his right eye, the mark of indestructible lightning materialized!

Two Origins: fire in the left eye, thunder in the right eye!

"The Origin of Void, comprehended during my thousand-year Dao dream, carries the Concept and Great Dao of my entire life, Wang Lin. Though you have dissipated, you can still be re-condensed and return… The first to return of this Origin of Void, is Life and Death!"

Wang Lin murmured, spreading his hands.

"My left hand is life, my right hand is death… Years pass, but the Dao Heart remains unchanged."

Wisps of white Qi emanated from Wang Lin's left hand, coiling around his entire left hand, slowly emitting a soft white glow. That was vitality, Wang Lin's vitality, and a part of the Life and Death Origin he had comprehended over two millennia.

At the same time, black Qi swirled around Wang Lin's right hand, forming a dark光团. Within that black Qi, there was decay and death, as if his right hand could retrieve departed souls from Hell and Yellow Springs.

The moment these two black and white Auras permeated, they traveled along Wang Lin's arms, finally converging on his glabella, fusing with each other and slowly rotating, like Yin and Yang!

The Origin of Life and Death, returned!

The Aura within Wang Lin's body surged dramatically!

"The second to return is the Origin of True and False. True and false, that is life." Wang Lin was silent for a moment, thinking of Heavenly Fate Child's matters, feeling quite emotional.

As his words spread, his body immediately became illusory, as if it had become unreal.

Especially his eyes, they were like the starry sky. If anyone looked into them, they would become lost, unable to distinguish between pupil and iris.

"When I close my eyes, everything is false; when I open my eyes, everything is real." Wang Lin murmured, closing his eyes. Everything in heaven and earth dissipated in his mind. What Immortal Cave Realm, what third soul, even the Nether Beast ceased to exist. Everything in this starry sky, to Wang Lin at this moment, was illusory.

When he opened his eyes, the Origin of True and False condensed and arrived.

While Wang Lin re-condensed the Origin of this Cultivator Clone, the Nether Beast beneath him also continued to move and drift, gradually leaving Zhao River and arriving at the Cloud Sea Star Domain.

And at this moment, within this Cloud Sea Star Domain, there was a group of people speeding through the starry sky.

This group, led by four elders, numbered about several hundred, densely packed. They flew through the starry sky, their emanating ripples vast and roaring as they moved.

Furthermore, an extremely strong Aura emanated from their bodies, with the four leaders being the strongest. These four, by some Divine Ability, had their Divine Senses connected.

As the four advanced, a giant Gourd materialized above their heads. The Gourd was entirely green, exuding ancient traces of time.

Within the Gourd's mouth, a cluster of green Qi swirled, seemingly guiding their direction.

Almost every short distance the four elders flew, they would stop, and all four would bow to the Gourd, their Divine Thoughts merging, as if communicating with the Gourd.

These four elders were none other than the Four Great War Generals of the Ancient Immortal Realm!

Behind this group of Immortals, Old Ghost Zhan, dressed in a Daoist robe, followed calmly from a distance. He didn't care about the group of Immortals ahead, and similarly, that group of Immortals seemed not to care about his presence either.
