Chapter 1839: The tenth sun of Immortal Astral, Injustice!
"Brother Wang!" The young man instantly shed his lazy demeanor, his entire aura changing dramatically as he burst forth with extremely formidable cultivation, laughing uproariously towards the sky.
His body flickered, and he took a step forward, instantly nearing Wang Lin.
As he approached in an instant, the young man's right hand formed a blade, suddenly raising it. A dazzling golden light erupted from his right hand, shining and transforming into a golden blade that slashed directly at Wang Lin!
This slash seemed to possess the power to cleave the heavens, causing the world to change color. The entire sky was filled with golden light, faintly appearing as if it was about to collapse. Moreover, amidst this single slash, the Immortal Qi from all directions rapidly surged and condensed, as if the mere appearance of this golden blade could devour the power of the surrounding heaven and earth.
This sudden scene immediately caused the expressions of the Cultivators around Wang Lin, including the middle-aged man who had guided him, to change drastically. Without hesitation, they swiftly retreated, moving away from Wang Lin as quickly as possible.
Tang Jia's pupils constricted as she stared at the young man's figure, his right hand forming a blade and slashing down. This figure rapidly overlapped with the proud, heaven-defying shadow in her memory.
"If I don't activate the Heavenly Ox Soul Armor, I won't be able to resist this slash!" Tang Jia's cultivation had not reached the Empty Tribulation Realm; she was only at the eighth Mysterious Tribulation. Once she passed the ninth Mysterious Tribulation, she could truly step into the Early Stage Empty Tribulation Realm!
The old man sitting cross-legged under the bell also suddenly opened his eyes and looked intently. This old man's cultivation was unfathomable; the aura he faintly exuded indicated that his cultivation had already reached the Middle Stage Empty Tribulation Realm, extremely similar to the Seven-Colored Immortal Venerable of the past. Clearly, his cultivation was already at the Peak of the Middle Stage Empty Tribulation Realm!
Wang Lin's expression remained normal. As the young man's golden blade whistled towards him, less than ten zhang away, a sharp glint suddenly burst from his eyes. He stared at the young man's eyes hidden beneath the golden light, then suddenly raised his right hand and pointed forward!
With this one finger, the entire world suddenly paused, as if a strange force had forcibly squeezed in, solidifying the heavens and earth, solidifying the changes in rules, solidifying the surging Immortal power that was being devoured by the golden blade, and even solidifying the descending hand-blade and all of the young man's actions!
That golden blade slash, like a Mountain Collapse, was instantly broken by Wang Lin's single finger! The moment the opponent was fixed, Wang Lin's expression remained calm. He stepped past the young man and walked onto the plaza, under the bell.
This scene, falling into Tang Jia's eyes, shook her mind. She abruptly turned to look at Wang Lin, a strange light appearing in her eyes.
As for the old man at the Middle Stage Empty Tribulation Realm, he frowned, sweeping a thoughtful glance at Wang Lin.
The duration of the Body Fixing Art was only an instant. The young man regained his movement moments later, his face full of bitter smiles as the golden light around him dissipated. He turned to look at Wang Lin with a complex expression, then a sincere smile slowly appeared on his face.
"It's been many years, Brother Wang. You haven't disappointed me… I'm still not your opponent."
This young man was none other than Yun Yifeng of the Guiyi Sect!
"Can you change your unique way of greeting in the future?" Wang Lin frowned, looking at Yun Yifeng.
Yun Yifeng's body swayed, landing beside Wang Lin on the plaza. He laughed heartily; seeing Wang Lin genuinely made him happy. The scenes of the two in the Immortal Cave Realm, both enemies and friends, were complex, leaving Yun Yifeng with a hint of melancholy whenever he recalled them.
After all, that period of tens of thousands of years in the Immortal Cave Realm memories occupied a large part of his life.
"Brother Wang, after I returned to the Sect, I immediately mobilized the Sect's power to search for you, but unfortunately, I never found you. I didn't expect you to suddenly appear in the Guiyi Sect in this manner. Under my joy, I felt a sudden urge, so naturally, I had to continue our battle." Yun Yifeng said, striding towards Wang Lin, opening his arms with a very sincere expression.
Wang Lin's body paused. He looked at Yun Yifeng, silent for a while, then also stepped forward, and the two immediately embraced.
Yun Yifeng looked quite pleased, pulling Wang Lin, about to continue their conversation to the side.
But just then, a majestic voice suddenly emanated slowly from the grand hall directly in front of the plaza.
"Everyone has arrived…"
Yun Yifeng's steps halted. He exchanged a glance with Wang Lin, his expression immediately turning serious as he stood respectfully.
"The speaker is the Sect Master of my Guiyi Sect, at the Late Stage Empty Tribulation Realm."
Yun Yifeng's voice echoed in Wang Lin's mind. He calmly looked towards the grand hall, which lay like a giant beast.
"You three, state your names." The majestic voice slowly emerged again.
"Xiusheng Gate, Tang Jia!" Tang Jia said softly, her expression solemn.
"Loose Cultivator, Bian Yun!" The old man stood up and cupped his fist towards the grand hall.
"Great Soul Gate, Wang Lin!" Wang Lin spoke slowly, his gaze sweeping around. He noticed that when the voice from the grand hall emerged, this place was already enveloped by an invisible Restriction, completely Sealed. Thus, no sound from here could be heard by the outside world.
What secretly startled him even more was that the changes in heaven and earth here were also disrupted by this Restriction, making it impossible for anyone to calculate or deduce. This Restriction was not released independently but was concentrated here, based on the entire Guiyi Sect.
"Three of the Seven Heavenly Ox Apertures have been destroyed, and three Heavenly Ox-recognized envoys have died… You four have guarded your respective Heavenly Ox Apertures; this is a great merit!
After joint deliberation between this Sect and the Great Soul Gate, those with merit shall naturally be rewarded!" The majestic voice carried a sense of vicissitude, clearly belonging to an old ghost who had lived too long and had forgotten the passage of time.
"Bian Yun!" The voice echoed.
"Present!" The old man named Bian Yun stepped forward.
"You have meritorious service in guarding the Fourth Aperture. I summon you to be a Metal Element Elder of the Guiyi Sect and bestow upon you the Guiyi Sect's supreme treasure, the Metal Element Five Elements Armor!" As the majestic voice spoke, a golden light rapidly flew out from within the grand hall, exuding an aura of swords and blades, a desolate killing intent, enveloping the plaza.
The golden light paused before Bian Yun, transforming into a set of golden Armor. Waves of terrifying pressure spread out, rushing towards Bian Yun, whose expression was no longer calm but held a hint of excitement.
"Thank you, Sect Master!" Bian Yun took a deep breath, cupped his fist, and bowed towards the grand hall. The moment he bowed, the golden light immediately transformed into countless golden threads, drilling into Bian Yun's body and disappearing.
"Tang Jia!" The majestic voice spoke again.
"You have meritorious service in guarding the Sixth Aperture. I permit your Xiusheng Gate to expand its mountain gate three times, recruit three times the number of Disciples, and obtain three times the cultivation resources. I bestow upon you the Guiyi Sect's supreme treasure, the Water Element Five Elements Armor!"
A blue light rapidly flew out from within the grand hall, transforming into a sea of water that filled the heavens and earth, sweeping across and enveloping Tang Jia's body. It suddenly attached itself, drilling in through all her pores. Tang Jia's body trembled, and the tranquility in her eyes wavered.
"Thank you, Sect Master Senior." She bowed her head slightly, speaking respectfully.
"Yun Yifeng!"
Yun Yifeng's expression straightened. He stepped forward and bowed deeply.
"You have meritorious service in guarding the Fourth Aperture. Since you already possess this Sect's Wood Element Five Elements Armor, I shall transmit to you one of this Sect's four Legacy Divine Abilities, and bestow upon you this Sect's Immortal Artifact, the Soul Slaying Thorn!" As the words were spoken, two long rainbows whistled out rapidly from within the grand hall. One was a Jade Slip, and the other was a black dagger-like thorn. This dagger-thorn was very strange; it was only the size of a dagger, but it was cone-shaped, with nine sharp thorns on it, exuding waves of terrifying aura.
"Thank you, Sect Master!" Yun Yifeng's expression showed excitement as he took the two items and bowed once more towards the grand hall.
"Wang Lin!" The majestic voice slowly emerged after a pause.
Wang Lin's expression was calm. He looked at the grand hall and stepped forward.
"You have meritorious service in guarding the Third Aperture… I bestow upon you the Fire Element Five Elements Armor!" A flash of firelight appeared within the grand hall, and a sea of fire whistled up, burning in mid-air, transforming into a fiery Armor that flew directly towards Wang Lin.
"The rewards have been distributed. Next, I will assign you a top-secret mission!" The voice rose leisurely. Yun Yifeng was stunned, opening his mouth as if to say something, but after glancing at the grand hall, he fell silent.
The rewards for the three of them were mostly two items, but only Wang Lin received just one.
Not only was Yun Yifeng puzzled, but Tang Jia and the old man Bian Yun also swept their gazes over Wang Lin, evidently having all noticed this point.
Bian Yun's cultivation was profound, and his personality was gloomy. He wouldn't concern himself with matters unrelated to him, so he withdrew his gaze after a glance, not asking or saying anything.
Tang Jia had a bad impression of Wang Lin, so she naturally wouldn't pay attention now either.
"Your mission is…" The voice echoed, but before it could finish, a cold glint flashed in Wang Lin's eyes.
"Wait!" Wang Lin stared at the grand hall, took two steps forward, and interrupted the words of the Guiyi Sect Master.
As his voice rang out, Yun Yifeng's expression immediately changed drastically, and he desperately signaled to Wang Lin with his eyes. Tang Jia's gaze also sharpened as she looked at Wang Lin, clearly not expecting Wang Lin to dare to speak out like this at this moment.
Even Bian Yun turned to look at Wang Lin.
"Your mission is to go to the Green Devil Continent, infiltrate the Green Devil Temple, destroy the Green Devil Demon Statue, and severely injure the Green Devil Soul. After completion, you four will have rendered immense meritorious service to the Tianniu Continent!" The majestic voice completely ignored Wang Lin's words, still slowly speaking, gradually revealing this top-secret mission.
As these words came out, Bian Yun's expression immediately changed, as did Tang Jia's. And Yun Yifeng, who apparently heard it for the first time, also had a drastic change in expression. All three of their faces changed.
Entering the Green Devil Continent was too dangerous; a slight carelessness could mean never returning.
"The Green Devil Continent is now much emptier. As for the few Old Ancestors of the Green Devil Continent, someone will naturally keep them in check… That is the mission. Now, Wang Lin, what do you have to say?" The voice remained slow, as if very few things in this world could cause its tone to fluctuate a second time.
