Chapter 1812: The tenth sun of Immortal Astral, Heavenly Ox Three Caves

Both the Heavenly Ox Seven Caves and the Disciples stationed in the Pill Sea are secret agents of the Great Soul Gate!

If the Great Soul Gate wished, even the refinement of the Pill Sea would not be as simple as it is now! Even if the Green Devil Continent was powerful, it could not compare to the Old Ancestor of the Great Soul Gate from countless years ago in terms of deduction and calculation!

Because that generation's Old Ancestor was a successor of the Dao tradition from the Immortal Clan's Imperial Preceptor lineage, from eons ago!

Old Ancestor Qing Niu's Jade Slip was not only given to Wang Lin, but to a total of four Elders of the Great Soul Gate!

Putting away the Jade Slip, Wang Lin stood up, flicked his sleeve, and calmly walked out of the mountain Peak. The moment he exited the Peak, the sea of fire on the mountain immediately converged behind him, transforming into his Origin True Body of fire, slowly merging with his body, becoming indistinguishable.

Taking a step, Wang Lin's body transformed into a long rainbow, heading towards the Great Soul Sect mountain gate.

Behind him, another long rainbow whistled, following Wang Lin, one after the other, directly towards the mountain gate.

Both moved extremely fast. Before long, the long rainbow behind Wang Lin overtook him, stepping outside the mountain gate a step ahead and transforming into a middle-aged man dressed in green.

The man had an ordinary appearance and turned to look sharply at Wang Lin, who was approaching from behind.

"Elder Wang, I am Lu Wenran!" The middle-aged man looked at Wang Lin meaningfully and spoke slowly.

Wang Lin's body descended, his expression calm as he looked at the middle-aged man.

"Elder Lu seems very unfamiliar." During his time at the Great Soul Gate, Wang Lin had some impression of almost all the Elders, except for the Old Monsters with profound cultivation, but this middle-aged man was the first time he had encountered.

"Hehe, I was previously arranged by the Old Ancestor to travel outside for many years and have only recently returned, so Elder Wang naturally finds me unfamiliar." The middle-aged man smiled slightly.

As they were speaking, two more long rainbows whistled from within the mountain gate, transforming into a man and a woman before them. The woman was Yan Luan, and the man was a young man in a Daoist robe.

"Yan Luan greets Elder Lu. I didn't expect Elder Lu to be accompanying us this time." Yan Luan and Lu Wenran knew each other and greeted him with a smile.

"It is Lu's honor to have Elder Yan Luan and Elder Xu Dongde accompany me." The middle-aged man named Lu Wenran laughed heartily.

"Greetings, Elder Lu." The young man in the Daoist robe had a calm expression, cupped his fist towards Lu Wenran, and then said no more, as if his personality was taciturn.

Wang Lin looked at the three of them. The weakest among them had cultivation at the Early Stage of Empty Tribulation Realm. As for the middle-aged man named Lu Wenran, his cultivation had reached the Middle Stage of Empty Tribulation Realm, the same as the Seven-Colored Immortal Venerable back then, but his presence felt greatly inferior!

With these three present, this power was already extremely formidable. Compared to them, Wang Lin's Peak void spirit cultivation was simply incomparable.

While Wang Lin was observing the three of them, besides Yan Luan, the other two were also observing Wang Lin. During this period, Wang Lin had already gained a certain reputation within the Great Soul Gate.

"One who can continuously break into the seventh and eighth floors of the Soul Storage Pavilion cannot be underestimated!" Xu Dongde's gaze swept over Wang Lin, thinking to himself.

"This person can safely leave the Pill Sea and even cause the Pill Sea to explode ahead of time. Such a character absolutely cannot be judged by appearances… Moreover, this person's ability to return from the Pill Sea at such a fast speed is truly astonishing!" Lu Wenran's gaze swept over Wang Lin. He also returned from the Pill Sea, but he traveled using the 'Traveling Boat' left by the Old Ancestor of his generation, which was in the hands of his Senior Martial Uncle Meng. That Traveling Boat was the supreme treasure of the Old Ancestor of that generation, extremely mysterious, and its speed was unimaginable.

"Alright, everyone is here now. Our mission is to rush to the Heavenly Ox Third Cave and guard it against the invasion of the Green Devil Continent. This journey is fraught with unknown dangers… caution is best!" Lu Wenran took a deep breath and cupped his fist towards Wang Lin and the other two.

Wang Lin remained silent, and Yan Luan and Xu Dongde also did not speak, merely nodding. Afterwards, the four transformed into four long rainbows and sped away into the distance, leaving the Great Soul Gate.

Many teams like theirs had flown out of the Great Soul Gate in the past few days, all having received orders from the Old Ancestor to guard various locations!

All four of them moved extremely fast, especially Lu Wenran, whose cultivation had reached the Middle Stage of Empty Tribulation Realm. As he sped, it was as if thunder accompanied him, rumbling as he went.

As for Yan Luan and the Cultivator named Xu Dongde, their cultivation was not bad, and their speed was also not slow.

Only Wang Lin, in terms of speed, could not keep up with the three for long. His eyes flashed, and he simply summoned his Mosquito Beast, sitting cross-legged on its back, and sped away with a whistle.

As soon as the Mosquito Beast appeared, it immediately drew the gazes of the three, all of whom could tell its extraordinary nature.

"Elder Wang's Vicious Beast is fast enough to rival an Empty Tribulation Realm Cultivator. Where did you obtain it?" Lu Wenran asked with a smile.

At his words, Yan Luan and Xu Dongde also paid attention.

"Obtained it from my hometown." Wang Lin's words were brief and calm.

"Oh? May I ask where Elder Wang's hometown is?" Lu Wenran showed interest.

"Elder Lu." Wang Lin frowned, glancing at Lu Wenran.

Lu Wenran realized his slip of the tongue, smiled slightly, and did not continue asking, but inwardly he snorted coldly.

The four traveled in silence, rushing at full speed. After flying for about seven days, Lu Wenran flicked his large sleeve, and a Jade Slip appeared in his hand. After looking at it carefully for a few moments, he pointed downwards.

"This is it. This place is a Teleportation Formation constructed by an Old Ancestor of our Great Soul Gate with a great Divine Ability in the past. It can directly teleport people to a place very close to the Heavenly Ox Third Cave. It is not used lightly. This time, Lu has received the Old Ancestor's command to use this formation to travel." As Lu Wenran spoke, his body flickered and he headed straight down.

Below was a sprawling mountain range. In a valley, Lu Wenran stepped into the valley according to the location indicated in the Jade Slip, and Wang Lin and the other two followed.

A moment later, waves of immense pressure emanated from the valley, accompanied by a heaven-shaking roar. A dazzling light suddenly erupted, lasting for about half an hour before slowly dissipating.

The valley was empty. On the edge of the Extreme Heaven Grassland, which would take several months to fly to, the sky and earth twisted, and amidst the swirling clouds, a dazzling light instantly appeared. Within that light, the figures of Wang Lin and the other three materialized one by one.

As the light disappeared, Wang Lin turned and glanced in the direction of the Great Soul Gate's location, a solemn expression in his eyes.

"The principle of such a large-scale Teleportation Formation is extremely profound…" Wang Lin was not surprised that the Immortal Astral Continent had Teleportation Formations; after all, the Immortal Astral Continent was too vast. Without such formations, the time spent just on travel would be immense.

"I just don't know if there are inter-continental Teleportation Formations. However, logically speaking, even if such formations exist, they would be extremely difficult to activate!"

The Jade Slip in Lu Wenran's hand turned into dust and dissipated upon its appearance. Although Wang Lin didn't know what kind of power was contained within the Jade Slip to support such a long-distance teleportation, he surmised that such Jade Slips were definitely not numerous in the Great Soul Gate!

This was also why Teleportation Formations were only used at critical moments. Such a consumption, perhaps even a Sect, would find it somewhat unbearable.

In fact, Wang Lin's guess was quite accurate. It wasn't that the Great Soul Gate didn't have Teleportation Formations, but each activation was an unimaginable consumption. The Great Soul Gate's foundation was undoubtedly deep, but it also couldn't withstand more than a hundred activations within every ten thousand years!

When the four appeared, it was still dusk, with golden sunlight shining on the green grass of the earth, giving the Extreme Heaven Grassland a peculiar beauty.

"This is where the Heavenly Ox Third Cave is located. Our Great Soul Gate has set up an underground palace here. By now, there should be many Cultivators from nearby Sects who have arrived, as well as the Loose Cultivators who originally resided here." Lu Wenran slowly spoke, his body flickering as he descended to the ground, disappearing in a flash, merging into the earth.

Yan Luan and Xu Dongde followed behind, disappearing together. Wang Lin pondered for a moment, then also merged into the earth, vanishing from sight.

The four sped through the depths of the earth, and soon, at an unknown depth underground, they saw a massive hollowed-out Immortal Cave. Rather than an Immortal Cave, it was more like a huge palace complex!

Outside this palace complex, layers of Restrictions protected it. If the four were not Elders of the Great Soul Gate and possessed the Tokens to enter, it would be difficult for them to step inside.

Within the vast palace complex, there were nearly ten thousand Cultivators present at this moment. Most of these Cultivators were from nearby Sects and Loose Cultivators, who, upon receiving the Great Soul Gate's Soul One Command, immediately brought their Disciples here.

As soon as Wang Lin and the other three approached, bursts of hearty laughter immediately rang out from within the palace complex. Several long rainbows whistled over, transforming into three old men, who repeatedly cupped their fists.

"Brother Lu, after a thousand years, you've finally arrived!"

"Brother Zhou, after receiving the Old Ancestor's command, Lu used the fastest speed, fearing delay. Fortunately, no Green Devil Continent Cultivators have appeared here yet." Lu Wenran recognized the old man and chatted with a smile.

The other two old men also cupped their fists towards Yan Luan and Xu Dongde, seemingly having met before, their expressions quite polite.

Only Wang Lin, perhaps because his cultivation was not considered important enough in the eyes of these three old men, received only a slight nod before they looked away.

Wang Lin's expression was calm. The cultivation of these three old men was decent; two of them had reached the Middle Stage of void profound, and the old man surnamed Zhou, who was chatting with Lu Wenran, had slightly higher cultivation, subtly at the level of six or seven Mysterious Tribulations, similar to Du Qing.

"You've all met Yan Luan and Elder Xu. This Elder Wang has just joined our Great Soul Gate and is accompanying us this time to jointly resist the Devil Continent!" Lu Wenran pointed at Wang Lin, introducing him to the three.

At this moment, there were also many people from nearby Sects around, all looking at Lu Wenran and the others with respectful expressions.

Upon hearing Lu Wenran's introduction, the three old men were quite surprised and all looked at Wang Lin. They had originally thought Wang Lin was just a Disciple, but they didn't expect him to also be an Elder.

They now cupped their fists with smiles, appearing very polite, but in reality, after cupping their fists, these three old men simply ignored Wang Lin and continued chatting with Yan Luan and the others.
