Chapter 1734: Ancient Mystery, Heartbeat Thunder Sound!

The Seven-Colored Soul within Old Ghost Zhan dispersed, its cloak wrapping around its soul body. Its hands moved up and down, meeting the two massive hands formed by the Golden Heaven and Black Earth in an instant.

A heaven-shaking roar erupted. Old Ghost Zhan's strength was astonishing. Even without the Seven-Colored Soul, his cultivation was already near the Peak of Mysterious Tribulation, making him an unparalleled Cultivator with half a foot stepped into the Early Stage of the empty tribulation realm.

Furthermore, he was chosen by the Seven-Colored Soul to reside within and undergo Fusion. As a result, his cultivation strength was infinitely close to that of the Immortal Venerable Seven-Colored!

At this moment, his soul body separated. The Seven-Colored Soul waved its arms, causing the world to change color. The arm formed by the golden sky immediately collapsed! Simultaneously, the large hand formed by the black earth also disintegrated amidst the tremors.

Even Venerable Daoist Lan Meng's Ancient Zither Seal instantly vanished under the tremendous roar and violent impact.

Venerable Daoist Lan Meng spat out fresh blood, and the Ancient Zither beside him hummed, indicating severe damage. But he did not hesitate, once again plucking the zither strings, transforming the sound into two streams of power that shot directly toward the Seven-Colored Soul and Old Ghost Zhan.

Even the Old Man Surnamed Ma, whose Divine Ability was broken, suffered a massive rebound force from the Seven-Colored Soul's Divine Ability. Blood spilled from the corner of his mouth, and he staggered back continuously for several hundred zhang, but he gritted his teeth, reversed his body, and charged out again.

Simultaneously, the moment the Divine Abilities of the Seven-Colored Soul and Old Ghost Zhan collided, Old Ghost Zhan flashed, heading straight toward the battleground where two middle-aged Cultivators from the Five Elements Planet were fighting the Black Tortoise and Vermilion Bird Generals.

The Black Tortoise and Vermilion Bird had clearly reached an agreement with Old Ghost Zhan, which was why they helped; or perhaps they were forced by circumstances, believing that obeying Old Ghost Zhan was the only choice here. They even felt that Old Ghost Zhan might eventually become the new Immortal Venerable Seven-Colored!

Old Ghost Zhan instantly arrived, flicking his large sleeve. Two Characters 'Zhan' roared out, heading directly toward the two Cultivators from the Five Elements Planet, where they collapsed in front of them, turning into a massive force that instantly severely wounded both men, sending them spitting blood and retreating.

A heaven-shaking Battle Intent erupted from Old Ghost Zhan. He was the creator of the Character 'Zhan' Scroll, possessing the Origin of Battle. Had he not merged with the Seven-Colored Soul and been influenced by that soul's personality, he definitely would not have acted indecisively.

Now that the soul and body were separated, the influence had largely dissipated, allowing Old Ghost Zhan to recover his former dominance!

The Dominance of Battle!

"You two, quickly head to the entrance and force Wang Lin's demise!" Old Ghost Zhan flung his large sleeve. Immediately, the Black Tortoise and Vermilion Bird Generals flashed out, using the momentum to rush toward the entrance formed by the previously collapsed mountain Peak in the distance.

As he finished speaking and turned, the Old Man Surnamed Ma strode forward in front of Old Ghost Zhan. Their eyes met in mid-air, and a roar seemed to explode within their bodies. Shaking slightly, they began their intense fight.

Compared to the Old Man Surnamed Ma, Venerable Daoist Lan Meng was anxious, but all his energy was focused on the zither sound, using it to Seal the Seven-Colored Soul and restrict Old Ghost Zhan, forming a Killing Formation. He had no spare strength to stop the Black Tortoise and Vermilion Bird Generals. He watched as the two instantly approached the distant entrance, about to step inside and disturb Wang Lin.

Tang Shan was not unconscious. Gritting her teeth, she leaped forward, intending to stop the Black Tortoise and Vermilion Bird.

Tuo Sen, who was Sealed by three Characters 'Zhan' nearby, roared and used a punch to blast open the surrounding Characters 'Zhan' which he had already weakened significantly. The moment the Characters 'Zhan' collapsed, he rushed out, heading straight for the Black Tortoise and Vermilion Bird.

However, he and Tang Shan were still slower than the Black Tortoise and Vermilion Bird. Just as the two Generals instantly appeared at the entrance formed by the collapsed mountain Peak, about to step inside, a shocking change suddenly occurred.

The Black Tortoise General was the fastest, three zhang ahead of the Vermilion Bird. But the instant he approached, the thumping, thumping sound of a heartbeat, like thunder, crashed into his mind, causing his heart to beat violently at that moment.

This sudden, rapid beating created a heart-piercing pain, immediately causing the Black Tortoise General's expression to change drastically. His ears roared, and the stinging pain in his heart felt as if a hand had reached inside, attempting to crush it!

Amidst this sudden, intense pain, the Black Tortoise let out a mournful shriek. His body immediately stopped moving forward. Just as he was about to retreat, a pitch-black hand appeared out of thin air and pressed onto his chest, right over his heart.

With a boom, the Black Tortoise General spat out blood and was sent tumbling backward, flying straight toward the Vermilion Bird behind him.

The Vermilion Bird General was stunned, and at the same time, he also heard the thumping sound of the heartbeat. The chaotic sound generated intense pain, instantly making the Vermilion Bird's face pale. He retreated without hesitation.

But in the instant he retreated, a grating roar, filled with ferocity, impatience, and a crazed bloodlust, sharply pierced out from the entrance. Simultaneously, a black shadow flashed and appeared in front of the Vermilion Bird.

The Vermilion Bird General only managed to see the appearance of the black shadow before spitting out blood, thrown backward in an arc after being struck by the shadow.

However, the black shadow clung tightly to the Vermilion Bird's body, embracing him. As they were thrown out together, the shadow let out a ferocious, sinister laugh and bit down on the Vermilion Bird's neck.

The Vermilion Bird General's scream was horrific. His body rapidly withered as a large amount of blood was sucked away by the black shadow. All of this happened instantaneously, impossibly fast. While the Vermilion Bird General's body was still in mid-air, before it could even fall, the black shadow on his body suddenly looked up, stomped fiercely on the Vermilion Bird General with both feet, sending his body crashing toward the ground, while the shadow used the force to launch itself into the air, revealing its figure.

It was none other than the Already-Controlled Puppet!

This sudden scene immediately halted Tang Shan and Tuo Sen, and also drew the attention of Venerable Daoist Lan Meng, the Old Man Surnamed Ma, Old Ghost Zhan, and the Seven-Colored Soul in the sky!

As everyone's gaze focused, Wang Lin's figure slowly materialized at the entrance leading to the final layer. His appearance caused virtually everyone who saw him to gasp, because Wang Lin's appearance had drastically changed!

He was still wearing white robes, but the clothing was covered everywhere with blood, making it shocking to behold! He still had white hair, but it was disheveled and scattered over his shoulders!

While his clothes and white hair hadn't changed, the skin exposed by Wang Lin's robes was covered in runes capable of capturing one's soul. These runes flickered and moved across Wang Lin's skin, causing him to emit an aura of antiquity.

His face was saturated with runic Imprints, making it look very coarse. Simultaneously, his eyes emitted a silver light. Standing there, he exuded an overwhelming Aura of looking down upon the world.

His Silver Eyes revealed coldness and ruthlessness, and a murderous intent that chilled the heart permeated the silver light.

Even more astonishing, and what caused Tuo Sen's eyes to widen in shock, was that nine Star Points circled into a vortex on Wang Lin's glabella! In his right eye, nine Demon Stars also swirled. Only his left eye had eight Star Points!

Furthermore, blood was flowing from his left eye, dripping down his cheek onto his white robes.

"You… you obtained Ye Mo's complete Legacy!!" Old Ghost Zhan's expression changed. He immediately felt a sense of crisis emanating from Wang Lin, a feeling that shook his soul.

It wasn't just him. Wang Lin, standing there, caused everyone who saw his Silver Eyes to feel a shock to their souls. Venerable Daoist Lan Meng fared slightly better, as he was Wang Lin's Senior, but the Old Man Surnamed Ma felt a roar in his mind the moment he saw Wang Lin's Silver Eyes.

"Silver Eyes!! Legend has it that when the Immortal Ancestor descended, there were Nine Bends and Three Phases, with the Golden Heaven and Black Earth being one phase! Furthermore, legend says that these Nine Bends and Three Phases were also the transformations that occurred when the Ancient Ancestor of the Ancient Clan descended back then. The Three Phases represent the Immortal, and the Nine Bends represent the Ancient!

I once heard that two of the Nine Bends are Silver Eyes and Golden Body! How… how could Wang Lin have Silver Eyes just by inheriting Ye Mo's Legacy!! Even Ye Mo didn't have them!"

While everyone was shocked, Xuan Luo, who was also in this world, looked at Wang Lin walking out of the entrance, and excitement appeared in his eyes. After seeing these Silver Eyes for the first time in the final layer of the Ancient Tomb, his heart was greatly stirred.

Seeing them again now, the feeling remained the same.

"The Ancient Ancestor's Soul Blood… allowed him to possess the first Bend of the Nine Bends, the Silver Eyes!"

Amidst the shock of the crowd, Wang Lin swept his gaze across the ground, pausing slightly where Xuan Luo was located. With his Silver Eyes, he seemed to see something, but apart from himself, no one knew whether he truly saw it or not.

His gaze swept past, finally landing on the Seven-Colored Soul that had separated from Old Ghost Zhan. Looking at the Seven-Colored Soul, which was enveloped entirely by a cloak, only revealing its eyes, Wang Lin raised his right hand and pointed at it!

With that single point, the thumping, thumping sound of a heartbeat roared like thunder. This sound emanated from within Wang Lin, spreading from his heart, immediately echoing throughout the world.

Old Ghost Zhan's expression changed. His body moved with a roar, heading straight for the Seven-Colored Soul. His body and soul immediately merged together, becoming one under Wang Lin's gaze.

Wang Lin did not stop him, nor was there any need to stop him!

After the Fusion, the phantom image of the Seven-Colored Soul permeated the space outside Old Ghost Zhan's body, obscuring the sky behind him. He rushed toward Wang Lin with a sinister laugh. Venerable Daoist Lan Meng and the Old Man Surnamed Ma were about to intervene, but at that moment, Wang Lin spoke calmly amidst the echoing heartbeat.

"Seniors, you have worked hard. I will take this battle." Wang Lin naturally saw the injuries within Venerable Daoist Lan Meng and the Old Man Surnamed Ma. Moreover, he wanted to know exactly what kind of power he possessed after obtaining the Legacy. The moment he spoke, the sound of the heartbeat within Wang Lin suddenly intensified, roaring and shaking the heavens and earth!

The massive roar, driven by the heartbeat, frantically entered Old Ghost Zhan's mind the instant he approached, directly crashing into his heart!

Old Ghost Zhan's steps suddenly halted. A heart-piercing pain instantly erupted from his heart, and his heartbeat suddenly became chaotic, as if it were about to collapse.

"What Divine Ability is this!" Old Ghost Zhan's expression changed. He raised his right hand and pressed it directly against his chest, attempting to suppress the violent beating of his heart.
