Chapter 1838: Immortal Astral’s tenth sun, Lecher
Wang Lin's expression was calm; he remained so even after hearing that the first, second, and seventh Heavenly Ox Acupoints had been completely destroyed. Over the past few months, he had already sensed the destruction of these three acupoints.
"Top-secret plan?" Wang Lin frowned.
"I am only here to relay the order and do not know the specifics. I hope Fellow Daoist can quickly use the Teleportation Formation to head to Guiyi Sect. There are four people like me relaying this message, each heading to a different Heavenly Ox Acupoint." Ouyang Zhen grabbed the Void Realm with his right hand, and immediately a Jade Slip materialized and was tossed toward Wang Lin.
"This Jade Slip contains records of three uses of the Teleportation Formation and the precise location of the Formation. Please hurry, Fellow Daoist. I have another mission and must take my leave first!" Ouyang Zhen, concealing his anxiety, cupped his fists and bowed to Wang Lin before turning into a long rainbow and rushing away.
Ouyang Zhen came and went quickly, but Wang Lin sensed the tension among the Cultivators of the Tianniu Continent in this war. After a long silence, Wang Lin lowered his head to look at the Jade Slip.
Several long rainbows flashed out from the ground, transforming behind Wang Lin into Yan Luan and the other Empty Tribulation Realm Cultivators. These few people looked at Wang Lin, silently.
After a long time, Wang Lin put away the Jade Slip, turned to look at Yan Luan and the others behind him, and cupped his fists toward them.
"Fellow Daoists, after months of gathering, the day of parting has finally arrived. If fate allows in the future, perhaps we will have the opportunity to fight together again on the Tianniu Continent."
"Farewell!" Wang Lin's gaze swept over Yan Luan. Without the slightest hesitation, he turned and stepped toward the edge of the sky. Ripples echoed beneath his feet, and his figure suddenly vanished.
Wang Lin left in a very unrestrained manner. He never belonged to the Tianniu Continent; whether coming or going, he was like the wind—once he blew past, perhaps no trace would remain.
Yan Luan and the others watched the direction of Wang Lin's departure. After half an incense stick of time, their expressions were complex. The scenes and events of the past few months were hard for them to forget, remaining in their memories and becoming a sedimentation of their lives.
On the second day after Wang Lin left, all the Cultivators inside the Third Heavenly Ox Acupoint, led by Yan Luan and the others, walked out of the Underground Palace, left the Extreme Heaven Grassland, abandoned this place, and headed toward the location deep within the Tianniu Continent mentioned by Ouyang Zhen, transforming into over a thousand long rainbows that streaked across the world.
The defense of the Third Heavenly Ox Acupoint thus came to an end.
Guiyi Sect, one of the two most powerful Sects on the Tianniu Continent, was not the strongest among the Nine Sects and Thirteen Gates of Eastern Continent, but it was certainly not the weakest.
The entire Guiyi Sect occupied a vast area on the Tianniu Continent. Countless ancient buildings and carved railings were constructed on the mountainsides, and a faint mist lingered, giving it an indescribably hazy appearance.
The appearance of Guiyi Sect could be described as a multi-layered ring, circling layer upon layer, looking like a gigantic Vortex, spanning an infinite distance.
Like the Great Soul Gate, the number of Sect Disciples in Guiyi Sect was extremely large. Such a major Sect had many powerful experts.
Ten thousand miles east of Guiyi Sect, a burst of Formation light surged up into the sky, illuminating the entire heavens and enveloping the earth. This sudden change immediately drew high attention from Guiyi Sect, and dozens of long rainbows whistled rapidly toward the location of the Formation.
Within the Formation light, amidst a distortion, Wang Lin, dressed in white robes with white hair, slowly revealed his figure. However, it was only his silhouette, without a detailed facial manifestation. The moment his figure appeared, dozens of long rainbows from Guiyi Sect had already approached, surrounding Wang Lin.
"Who are you, Your Excellency? Present your Travel Permit Jade Slip!" A cold, murderous voice suddenly arose. The speaker was a middle-aged man in the empty profound Late Stage. He was wearing a Five Elements Daoist Robe and stared at Wang Lin inside the Formation, a cold light flashing in his eyes.
The dozen or so Cultivators around were all wearing Guiyi Sect's Five Elements Daoist Robes. They all looked solemn, awaiting Wang Lin's travel permit. Since it was wartime, if Wang Lin couldn't produce the permit, they would immediately use all their strength to blast him to death.
Not until Wang Lin's figure became completely clear, and the surrounding Guiyi Sect Cultivators saw the Heavenly Ox Totem on the right side of Wang Lin's face, did their expressions suddenly change, and they all retreated several steps simultaneously.
They clearly sensed a Heavenly Ox Soul aura emanating from Wang Lin that shook their hearts. They had sensed a similar aura on two other people yesterday.
"We pay our respects to the Heavenly Ox Emissary! May we ask which Acupoint and which Sect Your Excellency comes from?" The middle-aged man, whose tone had been cold earlier, now looked extremely courteous, quickly cupping his fists. The people beside him also cupped their fists and bowed.
They held genuine respect for this Heavenly Ox Emissary who had successfully defended a Heavenly Ox Acupoint. Even if Wang Lin's cultivation seemed low to them, just as Ouyang Zhen thought, being able to hold a Heavenly Ox Acupoint against the Green Devil Continent's attacks surely meant he possessed extraordinary abilities.
"Great Soul Gate, Wang Lin, Third Heavenly Ox Acupoint, Extreme Heaven Grassland." Wang Lin cupped his fists toward the crowd.
"Please, Emissary! The Sect Master has ordered that any time an Emissary arrives, they must immediately enter Guiyi Sect's Central Grand Hall." The middle-aged man raised his right hand and gestured outward.
Wang Lin nodded, looking at the distant Great Soul Gate. This was not his first time here. In fact, while in the Immortal Cave Realm, he had sensed the existence of Guiyi Sect from the passage deep within the Wind Immortal Realm.
Furthermore, he had some old friends here.
Stepping out of the Formation, accompanied by the middle-aged man and the Guiyi Sect Cultivators, they flew toward Guiyi Sect.
But before they could fly very far, the Teleportation Formation suddenly emitted dazzling light again. This light shot straight into the sky, swirling in all directions.
This sudden change immediately caught the attention of Wang Lin and the Cultivators. They all paused, turning to look. The middle-aged man's expression grew cold again as he stared at the Formation with solemnity.
They saw a woman's figure slowly materialize within the Formation. Her appearance was indistinct, but her posture was exceptionally graceful, making anyone who looked feel their heart stir.
Before long, the woman's figure was fully revealed. She was a female Cultivator dressed in purple clothes, who looked young and very beautiful. Furthermore, an indescribable sense of tranquility pervaded her, making her appear like a true Fairy.
On her beautiful face, on the right side, there was also a Heavenly Ox Totem. The appearance of this totem did not diminish her beauty; instead, it added a sense of mystery.
"Xiusheng Gate, Tang Jia, Sixth Heavenly Ox Acupoint, Cangming Mountain Luan…" The woman spoke softly. Her gaze swept over the people in front, lingering slightly on Wang Lin, but her expression remained tranquil.
The moment he saw this woman, Wang Lin's eyes suddenly narrowed. He carefully looked at her a few times, vaguely feeling that her appearance was somewhat familiar, but he couldn't recall where he knew her from.
In response to Wang Lin's scrutiny, Tang Jia frowned slightly and glanced at Wang Lin calmly.
"Fellow Daoist, may I ask which Acupoint you are from?" Her voice was melodious, like a skylark.
"Third Heavenly Ox Acupoint." Wang Lin spoke slowly, his gaze still assessing her, pondering where the familiarity in her appearance and presence came from.
He was certain that this woman was not a Reincarnation from the Immortal Cave Realm.
However, his gaze, in the woman's eyes, was quite impolite, causing her to frown again, and a hint of disgust appeared in her expression toward Wang Lin.
"Fellow Daoist, perhaps you have met Tang Jia before?" She looked at Wang Lin coldly and spoke softly.
"I haven't met you, I just feel a sense of familiarity." Wang Lin mused, realizing his previous scrutiny seemed inappropriate. He smiled apologetically, shook his head, and withdrew his gaze.
Hearing Wang Lin's words, Tang Jia felt even more disgusted internally. She had heard similar lines many times in her life, and she immediately categorized Wang Lin as a lecher. Without speaking, she flashed, turning into a purple light, and flew toward Guiyi Sect.
Wang Lin rubbed his nose and flew toward Guiyi Sect under the middle-aged man's strange expression.
Soon, everyone whistled across ten thousand miles and entered Guiyi Sect. Guided by the middle-aged man, they stepped into Guiyi Sect's Grand Formation and flew toward the Central Grand Hall.
Purple light flashed ahead. Tang Jia seemed not to be visiting Guiyi Sect for the first time; she appeared very familiar with the place and headed straight for the Central Grand Hall.
Half an hour later, in front of Wang Lin, he saw a massive plaza. On the plaza, there was a huge bell, inverted, emitting waves of majestic pressure.
Beneath that bell, two Cultivators were sitting cross-legged. One was a white-haired old man. The old man looked gloomy, sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed, ignoring everything around him. On the right side of his face, there was a Heavenly Ox Totem, flashing intermittently, emitting a dense Heavenly Ox Soul aura.
The other person was a young man with a lazy expression. But if one looked closely, they could faintly see a hint of sharpness in his eyes. He seemed casual, but once his expression was withdrawn and the sharp light in his eyes was fully revealed, he would surely seem like a completely different person.
On the right side of his face, a Heavenly Ox Totem was also flashing.
When Tang Jia was the first to arrive, the young man glanced at her, completely unconcerned. But immediately after, his body suddenly trembled, the expression on his face instantly collapsed, revealing shock. He abruptly stood up, staring intently at the purple-clothed Tang Jia.
Or rather, he was staring behind Tang Jia! At Wang Lin, who was being guided by several Cultivators, dressed in white robes with white hair swaying!
Wang Lin also saw him!
Tang Jia was stunned by the young man's drastic change. She knew him, knew his status in Guiyi Sect and his reputation on the Tianniu Continent. She had seen his proud, heaven-defying figure in crowds before, but she had never seen such an expression on this young man.
After a moment of shock, Tang Jia subconsciously turned her head and saw the figure that she found repulsive.
