Chapter 1755: Immortal Astral Tenth Sun, Future Strongest Clone! (Third update)

It transformed so recklessly, risking extreme danger to evolve, and even devoured its companions. Its goal was singular: to find Wang Lin, to find its Master!

Its sorrowful cries echoed within this Void. It no longer had a body; all that remained was a mass of blurry mist. Its speed was immense, instantly spreading boundlessly. During this search, its impatience grew unbearable. Its body suddenly paused, and with a deafening boom, it completely collapsed.

This entire mass of mist split into a hundred thousand parts, transforming into a hundred thousand Thread-like Mosquito Beasts, searching frantically in a hundred thousand directions. Those cries were like calls, summoning their Master!

Deep within this Void, in a certain area, floated a corpse and a coffin. The corpse's right hand was tightly clasped onto the coffin, as if it would never let go, even if its arm were broken.

It had been floating like this for several decades.

Slowly, a faint White Light appeared on the corpse. This White Light was like that of the two corpses Wang Lin had absorbed back then, a strange power condensed from within the Void, gathering at its chest.

Until this day, while the corpse and coffin floated, a palm-sized Mosquito Beast, resembling a thread of smoke, flew over from afar. The creature continuously cried out and moved forward, flashing past the corpse and coffin. But soon, the Mosquito Beast suddenly trembled, sharply turning around to stare intently at the distant corpse.

A roar filled with excitement erupted heavenward at that instant. The Mosquito Beast rushed over like mad, instantly nearing the corpse and landing on it. Staring at the corpse's emaciated face, it let out a mournful howl.

It could not speak like a human, but that mournful sound surpassed any thousand words. It was a scream of extreme sorrow, a call of despair.

Under its roar, threads of smoke immediately whistled in from the surrounding Void, transforming into Mosquito Beasts one after another. Finally, all hundred thousand Mosquito Beasts appeared. They converged, astonishingly forming Wang Lin's Mosquito King!

The Mosquito King's eyes were bloodshot. Under its mournful roar, its massive proboscis gently nudged Wang Lin several times, seemingly trying to wake the sleeping Wang Lin, but each time, it failed.

After countless attempts and countless failures, the Mosquito King's body trembled, and its cries seemed hoarse, revealing desperate sorrow. It had strived for so many years and searched for so long, finally finding its Master, but what it saw was merely a corpse.

Such an event was unbearable for its simple nature. It suddenly raised its head, wrapped Wang Lin and the coffin, transforming into a massive cloud of mist, and sped away toward the distance.

The Void Layer was terrifying to others, but for the Mosquito Beast, which had undergone five transformations there, it felt completely comfortable. Rushing frantically now, it instantly carried Wang Lin and the coffin across boundless distances.

During its five transformations, its body retained some vague memories regarding this Void, which contained the Immortal Astral Laws. It vaguely felt that there was a location here where its Master could awaken.

However, this location was extremely secret, and even it would take a long time to find it.

After flying an unknown distance for an unknown time, within this Void, in front of the Mosquito Beast, after searching for a very long time, it saw the first slightly curved continent within the Void!

Or rather, it couldn't be considered a continent, but a massive Curved Platform.

This platform was irregular, seemingly a piece of some object. It was about ten thousand zhang in size, which didn't look very large from afar. It emitted bursts of White Light. The feeling the light gave off was identical to the light from the two corpses Wang Lin had absorbed previously.

There was nothing on the platform, but there was an invisible Barrier preventing anyone from stepping onto it.

This Barrier was entirely condensed from the Immortal Astral Laws. Forget Wang Lin, even Xuan Luo would find it extremely difficult to break through this Barrier and enter.

Only the Immortal Ancestors, Ancient Ancestors, and the Nine Strange Creatures accompanying them, all born from the Immortal Astral Laws, could integrate with this Law Barrier and enter.

In the Mosquito Beast's vague memory, it seemed its ancestor was born within such a Curved Platform… and once its Master could also enter such a platform, the Master would surely awaken!

Outside the Curved Platform, the Mosquito Beast wrapped Wang Lin and the coffin and charged straight at the Barrier. With a loud boom, the Mosquito Beast penetrated the Barrier and entered, but Wang Lin and the coffin were blocked outside.

The Mosquito Beast that entered was stunned. It immediately turned and rushed out of the Barrier, wrapping Wang Lin to try again, but after several attempts, it failed every time.

Seeing this, the Mosquito Beast immediately grew anxious. Amidst continuous roars, its massive proboscis flickered, taking a strand of Wang Lin's hair, and charged toward the Barrier again. However, this time, it still entered, but the strand of hair was blocked outside and drifted away.

The Mosquito Beast went mad. It rushed out of the Curved Platform and roared repeatedly at the platform while standing next to Wang Lin. Moments later, its eyes showed frenzy. Its massive proboscis shrank, becoming needle-sharp, and pierced Wang Lin's body. With a careful suck, it drew a drop of fresh blood from Wang Lin's nearly desiccated body.

The Mosquito King swallowed the blood and protected it layer by layer with its misty, thread-like body before charging toward the platform's Barrier again. This time, as soon as half its body entered, it immediately let out a painful roar, as if it were stuck there. If it didn't spit out that drop of blood, it couldn't pass through.

Roaring heavenward, the Mosquito King struggled, trying to push through, but the power of the Barrier seemed infinite, allowing the Mosquito King only halfway in. No matter how much it struggled, it was helpless.

After several attempts, the Mosquito King's eyes were bloodshot. Its whole body of mist rapidly contracted, and its size suddenly shrunk, seemingly condensing all its essence internally to envelop the drop of blood. Opening its mouth, it desperately spat out the drop of blood with a fierce thrust.

Because half its body, especially its proboscis, was inside the Barrier, upon spitting, the blood immediately shot out, astonishingly entering the interior of the Barrier!

However, nothing foreign was allowed to exist inside this Barrier. As soon as Wang Lin's fresh blood entered, it instantly vaporized with a crash. Just as it was about to disappear, the Mosquito King rushed in, using its body to protect the blood, letting out a painful roar.

Its body instantly showed signs of dissipating and quickly shrank by more than half, but under its protection, although a lot of the blood vaporized, a trace of it still landed on the ground of the Curved Platform!

Since ancient times, this was the first drop of foreign matter, not belonging to the Immortal Astral Laws, to fall onto this platform! Furthermore, the most crucial point was that this drop of blood came after Wang Lin, whether sleeping or dead, had his corpse condense the White Light.

Precisely because of this, this drop of his fresh blood would bring him the greatest fortune he had encountered in over two thousand years of cultivation—a fortune great enough to shake the heavens!

This platform existed within the Immortal Astral Void. Few people could step onto it; most either died or got lost. Moreover, the platform's location was not fixed but constantly drifting, making it even harder to find. If not for the vague memory perception the Mosquito Beast gained after several transformations, it would be almost impossible to find, even after searching for countless years.

These two conditions were already extremely difficult, and those who could fulfill them were rare. Coupled with the platform's unique nature, which blocked anything not formed by the Immortal Astral Laws, it became like a chasm, presenting yet another impossible condition.

Unless, like the Mosquito Beast just did, one acted recklessly, willing to die just to deliver the blood inside. For the Mosquito Beast, which almost never acknowledged a master, to achieve this was truly a great fortune!

But these were not the final conditions. The last condition required the corpse to be either dead or sleeping within the Void, and it absolutely had to emit the White Light! This White Light was actually a part of the Immortal Astral Laws, and only a very select few could manifest such White Light after death!

The specific requirements were unknown to anyone!

Only when all these conditions were met could an event like Wang Lin's occur: the fresh blood falling into the Curved Platform. The moment it dropped, the blood was immediately absorbed by the platform. The entire platform suddenly trembled, and invisible ripples spread out, permeating the entire Void Layer. Within the Void Layer, beams of White Light rapidly materialized from all directions and swiftly rushed into the platform.

Gradually, the platform began to rumble, and the excited Mosquito Beast flew out to guard Wang Lin outside.

The rumbling intensified, and the platform astonishingly began to writhe. It slowly softened, its edges rising, gradually closing up like a hand clenching into a fist, forming a massive Hollow Shell!

Inside the Hollow Shell, a field of Blood Qi permeated the space. This Blood Qi continuously flickered while fusing with the absorbed White Light. Eventually, it slowly condensed into a humanoid phantom. The appearance of the phantom could vaguely be recognized as Wang Lin!

The moment the phantom condensed and slowly became clear, Wang Lin, who had been sleeping for decades outside the Hollow Shell, slowly opened his eyes. He could clearly feel a power originating from the unknown, appearing within his Bloodline, nourishing his body. The Dao Ancient Power within him suddenly recovered.

At the same time, his Seven Origins instantly reached their Peak.

Vaguely, he could sense that another self existed between heaven and earth. The instant he opened his eyes, the Mosquito King's voice of joyful surprise reached Wang Lin's ears.

He saw the excited and agitated Mosquito King, and the massive, fruit-like stone shell beside him. Vaguely, he seemed to see another self inside it!

"What… is this…" Wang Lin's mind was momentarily blank.

The third update is delivered! There will be no fourth update today, but Er Gen will continue with three updates tomorrow! Let's see how many days I can keep up three updates!

The previous record, I remember, was five days. This time, I want to break that record! I need motivation!!! I need monthly votes!!!
