Chapter 1845: Immortal Astral tenth sun, The Oath!
This destructive impact was resisted by Wang Lin's dao ancient using his full strength, relying on his Physical Body, coupled with the mysterious Human-shaped Armor that must be extremely rare and precious within the Guiyi Sect.
Even so, Wang Lin's Primordial Spirit still trembled within him, forcing him back several thousand zhang. Blood spilled from the corner of his mouth. The Earth Soil Human-shaped Armor on his body had a palm-sized crack near the chest, but it did not shatter.
"They want me injured, using that to… stall for time!" Wang Lin had previously attempted Shrinking the Ground into an Inch, but this place was already Sealed. Even after donning the Soul Armor, he still couldn't cross it.
Just as Wang Lin retreated, the Sword Strike cleaving down from the heavens and earth whistled like a startled swan, rapidly approaching. Its momentum was astonishing, seeming capable of slicing open the earth with a single strike as it swept closer.
Wang Lin abruptly looked up, raising his right hand and slamming a punch toward the Sword Strike of Heaven and Earth. Against such an extreme sword projection, using a Divine Ability would be too complicated; it was better to just hit it directly.
With a boom, the sword projection shattered the instant it landed, but Wang Lin's right hand also trembled, feeling numb, and the Human-shaped Armor on his arm immediately began to crumble.
The Sword Qi rushed along Wang Lin's arm and into his body, attempting to unleash destruction, but Wang Lin forcefully suppressed it. His body flashed, transforming into a long rainbow, heading straight for the green-robed man standing at the very top of the mountain range.
That green-robed man stared coldly at Wang Lin. He was Yun Kong!
The moment Wang Lin whistled closer, Yun Kong suddenly raised his right hand. The second sword strike soared into the sky, transforming into a Heaven and Earth Sword Projection, chopping down toward Wang Lin once more!
This sword strike was three parts stronger than the last. It instantly cleaved down toward Wang Lin, who let out a low roar and, without hesitation, slammed out a punch with his right hand!
A resounding explosion echoed. The second sword strike also shattered, and the Human-shaped Earth Armor on Wang Lin's right arm directly burst apart.
But the instant the second sword disappeared, Yun Kong cleaved down with the third sword, and the fourth sword!
Two streams of Sword Qi rose into the sky, heading straight for Wang Lin. Amidst the deafening echoes that frantically resonated around them, Wang Lin suddenly burst forward, now less than a hundred zhang away from Yun Kong. His expression was fierce, revealing killing intent.
Yun Kong's face was slightly pale. He stared intently at Wang Lin. The moment Wang Lin reached a hundred zhang distance, he bit his tongue, spitting out blood. The blood was surprisingly golden, forming nine sword projections that shot toward Wang Lin.
Immediately afterward, he raised his right hand and grabbed in the Void Realm. Suddenly, an ancient sword radiating a royal aura appeared in his grasp. Holding it tightly, he leaped up, cleaving down with the final sword strike right after the nine sword projections!
The instant Wang Lin saw this ancient sword radiating a royal aura, he immediately sensed traces of a Great Heavenly Venerate's Divine Ability upon it!
This was clearly a Magic Treasure of the same caliber as his Golden Seal, forged by a Great Heavenly Venerate using the Divine Ability of Creating Something from Nothing!
The moment the nine sword projections approached, Wang Lin's eyes flashed. He needed to leave this place, and anyone who blocked him would face his wrath. The Armor on his right arm had shattered, but he still had his left arm!
His left arm suddenly clenched into a fist, and he slammed out nine consecutive punches toward the nine sword projections!
"Let's see whose edge is sharper, your sword or this Wang's fist!"
Booming sounds wildly echoed across the mountain range as if splitting the heavens and earth, forming a storm that swept outward. Within the storm, the nine sword projections instantly shattered, and the Armor on Wang Lin's left arm was also completely pulverized and scattered. However, his body had advanced a hundred zhang, bringing him less than twenty zhang away from Yun Kong, who had leaped up to deliver the final strike!
"A Magic Treasure condensed by a Great Heavenly Venerate's Divine Ability? I have one too!" Wang Lin did not use the Fading Night technique. Even with his current cultivation after donning the Soul Armor, he couldn't use that technique twice in quick succession.
He had to save it for the most critical moment of his fight with Yun Kong. Although it seemed arduous, the situation had not yet forced Wang Lin to use Fading Night!
Moreover, he saw through the intentions of Yun Kong and the two self-detonating Green Devil Emissaries. This fighting was entirely aimed at stalling for time.
The instant Wang Lin's words echoed, he raised his right hand and grabbed in the Void Realm. Immediately, a massive Golden Seal appeared!
The moment the Golden Seal appeared, it instantly collided with the ancient golden longsword. A tremendous boom reverberated through the heavens and earth. Yun Kong spat out blood, his expression withered. The sword in his hand flew backward, shattering into countless fragments, and he himself was thrown back, landing with a crash on the ground.
A deep crack appeared on Wang Lin's Golden Seal, but it did not break. Instead, it became dim and lusterless before Wang Lin put it away. When Magic Treasures condensed by Great Heavenly Venerates clash, the focus is often not on the essence of the Magic Treasure or the Divine Ability used, but rather on the amount of Belief Power the Great Heavenly Venerate who created the item imbued into it.
Creating Something from Nothing is inherently an extremely profound Realm. Clearly, the Belief Power present on Yun Kong's sword was far less than that on Wang Lin's Golden Seal!!
Putting away the Golden Seal, Wang Lin stepped onto the highest peak of the mountain range, staring coldly at Yun Kong not far away.
Blood continuously spilled from the corner of Yun Kong's mouth as he looked at Wang Lin, his expression filled with disappointment.
"I lost…" He did not mention Wang Lin wearing the Heavenly Ox Soul Armor, nor did he mention the Magic Treasure also condensed by a Great Heavenly Venerate. A loss was a loss!
"However, you also lost…" Yun Kong struggled to stand up, looking at Wang Lin with a complicated expression.
"The duration of your Soul Armor is almost over. Their self-detonation and my full-strength delay were all meant to make you pause here for a moment… We never expected, nor calculated, that you would actually leave this way…"
While Yun Kong was speaking, Wang Lin turned and sped toward the other side of the mountain range. He didn't bother listening closely to the opponent's nonsense. As he moved forward, he waved his right hand backward, and a bloody light flashed rapidly, piercing directly through the severely injured Yun Kong's glabella.
There was no scream, no resistance. The Blood Sword pierced Yun Kong's head and swiftly returned to Wang Lin's rapidly moving figure.
As for whether the deceased Yun Kong was a Clone or the True Self, Wang Lin had no time to check. He sensed a crisis existing in the unseen depths. As this crisis spread, he felt the same sensation he had experienced the first time he faced Daoist Shui.
Beyond this continuous mountain range, the direction Wang Lin looked toward was a desert. This kind of desert was the most common terrain in Mengtu Continent. Nearly seventy percent of the land in the entire Mengtu Continent was this endless desert.
Legend has it that a long time ago, an Outer Heaven Cultivator arrived here from an unknown place. This person fought the Immortal Ancestor, was defeated, and was Sealed here by the Immortal Ancestor. This Cultivator possessed a terrifying Earth Origin Power. After he was Sealed here, this place transformed into such a desert.
It is rumored that this person's surname was Meng, which is why this place gradually became known as Mengtu Continent countless years later!
This area is filled with the aura of Earth Origin. Like the Green Devil Continent, the Green Devil Continent is actually also related to the great Earth Origin. The Green Devil Scorpion was originally an Outer Heaven Vicious Beast that lived deep within the earth.
It's just that it is obscured by its Devilish Qi, making it hard to discern.
These legends were recorded in detail within Wang Lin's Tortoise Shell. The moment he saw the Mengtu Continent, these memories surfaced in his mind. However, he had no time to dwell on them. He sped forward, relying on the speed granted by his Soul Armor, and rushed toward Mengtu Continent, unable to use Shrinking the Ground into an Inch.
The distance grew shorter. The boundary area spanning ten thousand li was crossed by Wang Lin in an instant, leaving less than a thousand li. Mengtu Continent was clearly visible!
But in that very instant, the color of the sky and earth suddenly changed. Directly ahead of Wang Lin, six positions abruptly emitted dazzling light, and layers of ripples immediately spread out—it was the moment the Teleportation Formations activated!
The activation of these Teleportation Formations was extremely fast. Almost the moment Wang Lin looked, dozens of figures appeared in each of the six Teleportation Formations!
Hundreds of figures materialized simultaneously in the blink of an eye, and waves of astonishing cultivation aura frantically spread out.
The activation of these six Teleportation Formations required a huge cost from the Green Devil Continent. Especially when teleporting so many people at once—the higher the cultivation, the greater the price paid for a single teleportation. If a Third Step Cultivator were to be teleported, the severity of the cost would be indescribable.
Yet right now, there were many powerful experts among these hundreds of people. This cost was enough to completely drain the Green Devil Continent's accumulated resources of a hundred thousand years!
These people were originally ambushed within the boundaries connecting the Tianniu Continent to various other continents, waiting for Wang Lin's arrival. However, due to an error in judgment, they were forced to forcefully relocate here now. Moreover, these were only a fraction; more people were continuously being teleported over.
All these Cultivators were dressed very similarly. Although the colors differed, the Black and White Sun and Moon Pattern on their robes was identical!
Wang Lin knew from the Tortoise Shell that this pattern was the symbol of the Dao Demon Sect, the largest Sect within the Green Devil Continent!
This obstruction and slaughter targeting Wang Lin was not the effort of the entire Green Devil Continent, but the strength of the Dao Demon Sect alone!
Mengtu Continent was only a thousand li away, but now the Dao Demon Sect had arrived, blocking Wang Lin's path. The ominous feeling and crisis transmitted from the unseen depths grew increasingly intense!
Wang Lin's pupils contracted. The moment his body flashed and sped forward, the hundreds of Cultivators from the six surrounding Teleportation Formations whistled into the air, heading straight for Wang Lin. Simultaneously, black shadows were thrown out by these hundreds of people, smashing toward the area around Wang Lin!
"Extreme Heaven Grassland, the heads of nine Cultivators!"
"Extreme Heaven Grassland, the heads of six Cultivators!"
"Extreme Heaven Grassland, the head of a Mysterious Tribulation Loose Cultivator!"
"Extreme Heaven Grassland…"
Those cold voices echoed throughout the heavens and earth, reaching Wang Lin's ears and shaking his heart. He looked at the heads, each bearing a tragic expression. These faces were familiar to him; they were some of the Cultivators who had fought alongside him for several months in the Third Cave of Heavenly Ox and ultimately survived the Extreme Heaven Grassland!
He did not know their names, but Wang Lin remembered their appearances. Hundreds of heads, accounting for a small portion of those who ultimately survived the Extreme Heaven Grassland… "Don't you like heads? These are the first great gift our Dao Demon Sect gives you!" A malicious voice echoed through the heavens and earth.
"Dao Demon Sect… If I, Wang Lin, manage to leave this place today, I will definitely destroy your entire Sect in the future!!" Wang Lin's eyes revealed monstrous red light, and he swore a venomous oath in his heart. This was the first Sect in the Immortal Astral Continent that he felt such a strong desire to utterly annihilate!!
