Chapter 1791: The Immortal Astral’s Tenth Sun, Desiring to Ascend to the Azure Sky! (First Update)
With a flash of bloody light, Wang Lin raised his right hand, and the Blood Sword whistled up, landing on the ground.
"This sword is enough!"
Yan Luan's gaze swept over the Blood Sword. She knew that this Blood Sword was a treasure of the dao ancient race, and as a wager equivalent to her blue umbrella, it was indeed sufficient.
"Good! I'll take that bet with you. I'd like to see how you get bounced back by the Restrictions of this seventh floor!" Yan Luan's pupils constricted. She suddenly couldn't quite understand Wang Lin.
"He can take out this sword… could it be that he's absolutely confident?"
Wang Lin's expression was calm. He no longer looked at Yan Luan, but walked towards the stairs leading to the seventh floor. His pace wasn't fast, but with each step, ripples seemed to reverberate, as if he was stepping on Yan Luan's heart. At this moment, she no longer comprehended the Divine Ability within the soul body, but stared at Wang Lin, her heart suddenly feeling a little nervous.
She vaguely regretted it, regretting that she shouldn't have provoked Wang Lin. That blue umbrella was a rather powerful Magic Treasure of hers, and its defensive power was extremely astonishing.
"Hmph, this person is cunning and full of tricks, deliberately acting mysterious. He might go back on this bet after losing!" Under Yan Luan's gaze, Wang Lin slowly but steadily arrived at the ancient staircase.
Wang Lin looked at the staircase. At the end of the nineteen steps was the seventh floor. It seemed like he could cross it in one step, but after approaching, a rather dangerous aura emanating from the staircase warned Wang Lin that without sufficient will, stepping onto the steps would be like a lonely boat in a stormy sea.
"What, are you scared now?" Yan Luan saw Wang Lin silent by the staircase and breathed a sigh of relief. She was truly afraid of seeing him effortlessly stride into the seventh floor as if walking on flat ground, even though this seemed almost impossible to her.
Wang Lin suddenly turned his head and gave Yan Luan a meaningful look.
"Watch carefully!" As he spoke, Wang Lin's eyes gleamed, and he lifted his foot, placing it directly on the first step of the staircase. The moment his foot landed, the Great Soul Gate suddenly changed color, and a roar echoed.
A gigantic staircase, stretching for hundreds of miles across the sky, materialized above the entire Great Soul Gate. This staircase radiated brilliant light, instantly illuminating the night of the Great Soul Gate.
Rumbling sounds reverberated through the night, startling countless Cultivators of the Great Soul Gate from their seclusion. They all spread out their Divine Sense, or simply flashed out, and from their respective peaks, they all saw the gigantic staircase in the sky!
"Someone wants to enter the seventh floor of the Soul Storage Pavilion!"
"This person has white hair. Judging by his appearance, isn't he the new Elder Wang!"
"Although his cultivation is extraordinary, it will be difficult for him to enter this seventh floor!"
"Haha, there's another show to watch. It's been about a hundred years since someone last entered the seventh floor. Besides those few Old Ancestors, almost no one dares to step into this seventh floor anymore!"
"The Restriction of the Soul Storage Pavilion is quite powerful. Unless one can successfully step into the seventh floor, then going in again in the future won't cause this heavenly change. But before succeeding, every time one steps onto the steps, they will be watched by everyone! I think this Elder Wang will definitely fail!"
The staircase had nineteen steps in total. On the first step, a gigantic figure stood at this moment. This figure had white hair, and it was none other than Wang Lin!
This was the heaven and earth change triggered when one desired to go to the seventh floor of the Great Soul Gate's Soul Storage Pavilion. Since ancient times, whenever someone in the Great Soul Gate wanted to step into the seventh floor, such a change would occur, known by everyone, and watched by the entire Great Soul Gate!
This was an honor, but at the same time, it was also immense pressure. If one was not qualified to enter the seventh floor and forced their way in, all their actions would be seen, including their embarrassed appearance when bounced back.
It was precisely because of this that few people attempted to enter the seventh floor for many years!
Within the Great Soul Gate, figures flew out from their respective peaks, all looking up at the sky. Such a lively event, although not rare for people of the Great Soul Gate, was not easy to witness. Now that they encountered it, they were naturally quite interested.
However, few believed that Wang Lin could succeed; most were looking forward to seeing him in a sorry state.
Even Old Ancestor Qing Niu of Qing Tian Peak frowned, raising his gaze as if seeing through his Immortal Cave to the anomaly in the sky.
"He's a bit reckless… with his cultivation, it's impossible for him to enter this seventh floor…" Old Ancestor Qing Niu sighed inwardly, shaking his head slightly.
"This is good too, to curb his arrogance, lest he think there are no mysteries within my Great Soul Gate!"
At the same time, in three to five other peaks within the Great Soul Gate, several old eccentrics who had been in seclusion for many years slowly opened their star-like eyes and silently looked over.
"Interesting. With this cultivation, it's already difficult to step onto the sixth floor, yet he still wants to enter the seventh floor…"
"This child is a bit overconfident…"
In the illusion in the sky, on the gigantic nineteen-step staircase, Wang Lin's right foot landed on the first step, his eyes closed, his body motionless.
But not long after, he suddenly opened his eyes, staring at the end of the staircase, and abruptly lifted his foot, striding forward like a shooting star, step by step!
With each step, an earth-shattering roar would emanate from the entire Great Soul Gate, like thunder. In a blink of an eye, Wang Lin took five steps, ascending five steps!
On the sixth floor of the Soul Storage Pavilion, Yan Luan stared intently at Wang Lin. Seeing him take five steps, her expression suddenly changed, but quickly returned to normal.
"Hmph, what if he took five steps? He won't make it past the seventh step!" Yan Luan clenched her fists, forgetting to comprehend the Divine Ability within the soul body, her gaze completely fixed on Wang Lin on the steps ahead.
Wang Lin's expression was calm, but his heart was like a raging storm. The moment he took five steps, he felt as if he had sunk into an abyss. A vast Divine Sense swept out from the steps beneath his feet, crashing into his mind, transforming into a gigantic voice.
"Retreat!"
"Retreat!"
"Retreat!!!"
Although the voice only had two words, it erupted with endless echoes in Wang Lin's mind. These echoes surged continuously, as if hundreds or thousands of people were roaring at Wang Lin simultaneously.
In this tremendous voice, Wang Lin's body seemed to be tearing apart, as if he would be utterly destroyed if he didn't retreat!
In this voice, Wang Lin's footsteps paused on the fifth step. He looked up at the end of the steps above, his eyes showing determination.
"Origin True Body, condense!" Wang Lin raised his right hand, performed a Hand Seals, and pointed. With this gesture, a sudden roar erupted within the Great Soul Gate. The burning Yan Vein Peak suddenly burst forth with a vast sea of fire. That sea of fire instantly filled the sky, and beneath its shroud, a gigantic face appeared within the sea of fire.
This face was precisely Wang Lin's Origin True Body!
In a flash, this overwhelming sea of fire collectively rushed towards the illusory staircase and the illusory Wang Lin in the sky, instantly approaching and merging into the illusory Wang Lin's body.
At the same time, on the sixth floor of the Soul Storage Pavilion, on the staircase leading to the seventh floor, the sea of fire around Wang Lin immediately dispersed, transforming into his Origin True Body behind him!
The moment this Origin True Body appeared, Wang Lin's eyes flashed with brilliance, as if he had gained new strength, and he suddenly lifted his foot, stepping forward once more!
The sixth step, the seventh step, the eighth step—Wang Lin's steps were unceasing. In an instant, he had already reached the thirteenth step!
The moment his foot landed, on the sixth floor of the Soul Storage Pavilion, Yan Luan, who had been constantly watching Wang Lin, suddenly stood up. Her beautiful face was now greatly changed. Her eyes showed disbelief, and her body trembled slightly, completely unaware that her right hand was tightly clenched, already turning pale.
"Impossible!"
At the same time, within the Great Soul Gate, all the Cultivators and Elders who witnessed Wang Lin taking several steps on the staircase in the sky, reaching the thirteenth step, had their expressions change, and a clamor rose like waves.
"He paused at the fifth step, then walked directly to the thirteenth step! This person… this person actually has such formidable willpower!"
"That's the Origin True Body!! It's actually the Origin True Body!!"
"This Elder Wang's actions are astonishing! There are only six more steps until he can enter the seventh floor!"
Not everyone in the Great Soul Gate knew about Wang Lin's Origin True Body. The shock and awe it caused, now that everyone was watching, were indescribable.
The entire Great Soul Gate almost boiled over. Even those few old eccentrics who had been in perennial seclusion were moved at this moment.
"Thirteen steps…" Within Qing Tian Peak, Old Ancestor Qing Niu's gaze was solemn, but he still sat cross-legged, neither rising nor going out.
"I underestimated him… his Origin True Body seems to be very close to the level of a True Immortal… Origin True Body, Origin True Immortal, a difference of one word, but it's like a chasm between heaven and earth!
However, the thirteenth step is already close to his limit. He can at most take three more steps!" Old Ancestor Qing Niu's cultivation was profound, and his judgment was sharp, rarely mistaken!
Within the Soul Storage Pavilion, at the thirteenth step of the staircase leading from the sixth to the seventh floor, Wang Lin stood there, silent for a moment. With the power of his Origin True Body, he had reached this point, but in his mind, that heaven-shaking voice was countless times more powerful!
"Retreat!"
The roar reverberated in his mind, the voice constantly surging, impacting Wang Lin's Primordial Spirit. His expression seemed calm, but in reality, his eyes were already hazy!
This haziness was seen by Yan Luan, by the countless Cultivators outside the Great Soul Gate, and by those old eccentrics who had been in perennial seclusion!
"He's about to fail!" Yan Luan's expression showed joy.
"It seems he ultimately cannot enter the seventh floor…" Many Cultivators of the Great Soul Gate secretly shook their heads.
But at this very instant, in the illusory giant staircase in the sky above the Great Soul Gate, the haziness in Wang Lin's eyes suddenly vanished, replaced by a surging brilliance!
"Yan Luan, you're celebrating too soon. This Wang wants your umbrella!"
