Chapter 1907: The tenth sun of Immortal Astral Reappears!

For a Cultivator, thirteen years passed in a flash. During these thirteen years, Wang Lin had completely grasped the Grand Beginning Origin, adding another unique Origin to his repertoire!

As for the Silent Annihilation Origin, after observing the darkness consuming light over four thousand times in these thirteen years, coupled with the insights gained within the Donglin Pool, he gradually began to understand it, though he hadn't fully mastered it yet.

During the thirteen years of frequent insights at the Donglin Pool, that low voice never appeared again.

Wang Lin sat cross-legged on the Altar Platform outside the Donglin Pool, his long hair hanging down to his waist. Although his cultivation remained the same during these thirteen years, his hair, for some unknown reason, slowly grew longer during his observation of the sunrises and sunsets.

After a long time, he opened his eyes. In his left eye was the outline of a nascent sun, and his right eye was pitch black. These two strange phenomena made Wang Lin appear deeply eerie.

"The Grand Beginning Origin can merge with the Lightning True Body, and fuse with Slaughter and Restriction, becoming the fourth Origin, including the Lightning True Body. As for the Silent Annihilation… I still haven't fully seen through it, only reaching Minor Achievement, but that doesn't prevent Fusion. By leveraging the power of Fusion, perhaps my cultivation will achieve a Breakthrough due to the condensation of five Origins, including the Lightning True Body…" Wang Lin looked calm. The reason he came to the Donglin Sect was to find an opportunity for his cultivation to achieve a Breakthrough.

Once this opportunity appeared, if his cultivation achieved a Breakthrough, he could challenge the Heavenly Venerate Nirvana Grounds again, thereby completing his preparations before heading to the Immortal Clan Imperial City.

As Wang Lin sat cross-legged, overlapping shadows appeared around him. A sheet of arc-shaped lightning flickered, and his Lightning True Body flashed out, sitting cross-legged opposite Wang Lin's main body.

The Lightning True Body had an indifferent expression, constantly emitting lightning. In the silence, it made crisp crackling sounds, and a feeling of destruction involuntarily surfaced in Wang Lin's heart as he looked at this Lightning True Body.

"The Slaughter Lightning contained within this Lightning True Body forms an indescribable destruction. This power is very unfamiliar to me…" Wang Lin looked at the Lightning True Body, which, like him, was currently wearing white robes.

After a moment of silence, Wang Lin raised his right hand and waved it toward the Lightning True Body.

"Since you contain Slaughter and your lightning is filled with destruction, wear the black robes I wore in my early years and become an Incarnation of darkness. In this way, you can better comprehend the Silent Annihilation Origin."

With a wave of his hand, the Lightning True Body's white robe completely turned black, as if darkness had swallowed light.

The black-robed Lightning True Body felt the sense of destruction within it intensify the moment its clothes turned black.

Silently watching his Lightning True Body, the outline of the nascent sun in Wang Lin's left pupil slowly emerged without emitting any light. It floated between him and the Lightning True Body, paused for a moment, and then shot straight into the Lightning True Body, merging into it instantly.

The Lightning True Body immediately shook, and dazzling rays of light emanated from within it. It seemed that the power of light was repelled by the Lightning True Body's destruction during this Fusion.

Wang Lin observed for a moment, ignoring it. His right eye instantly became pitch black, spreading out like ink and condensing on Wang Lin's right hand, forming the outline of a sun—except this sun was a Black Sun.

With a wave of his hand, this Black Heavenly Sun shot straight toward Wang Lin's Lightning True Body, fusing once again!

But the moment the Black Heavenly Sun fused with the Lightning True Body, Wang Lin's main body's Divine Sense immediately spread out, descending upon the Lightning True Body with a powerful pressure, forcibly making all the Origins within the Lightning True Body fuse according to his will!

Although the Black Heavenly Sun did not contain many Origins, perhaps because of this, and because it was inherently similar to destruction, it was immediately absorbed by the Slaughter Lightning upon merging into the True Body. After becoming one, the Slaughter Lightning underwent another transformation!!

Slaughter Lightning was originally meant to destroy heaven and earth, tear apart all light, and turn existence into nothingness. After fusing with the Silent Annihilation Origin, an aura of world-shattering destruction spread out from the Lightning True Body. Under this aura, even Wang Lin felt that his will could not suppress it.

Slaughtering all living beings, destroying a world, tearing apart light, allowing darkness to shroud everything, and turning all into empty ruins—this was the full extent of the power contained within the Lightning True Body that Wang Lin had unintentionally created!

However, this power was forcibly trapped within the True Body by the presence of the Restriction Origin, acting like a Seal, preventing it from escaping. If this power were unleashed, it would trigger a terrifying catastrophe!

The previous Lightning True Body was barely balanced, with the Restriction Origin locking down its body. But now, due to the Fusion of the Silent Annihilation Origin, this already cracked balance immediately collapsed.

But Wang Lin had anticipated all of this. The moment the Restriction Origin failed to limit the Slaughter Destruction and collapsed, the Grand Beginning Origin, representing light, immediately fused with the Restriction Origin, forming a new Seal and balancing the Slaughter Destruction once again.

Under this constant sealing and confrontation, Wang Lin's Lightning True Body was like a flame ready to ignite at any moment. This situation was like a Mortal handling fire.

Either gain complete control, or be consumed by the fire.

Destruction and Seal, darkness and light, using lightning as the catalyst, reached a precarious balance on this True Body once again at this instant. However, the Fusion of Restriction and the Grand Beginning Origin still seemed unable to fully counter Slaughter and Silent Annihilation. The crisis had not dissipated, but Wang Lin had to proceed this way.

From the moment this Origin True Body's Slaughter Lightning was unintentionally created by him, the uniqueness of this True Body was destined, making it fundamentally different from the Five Elements.

The instant the four unique Origins within the Lightning True Body fused and struggled to form a single entity, the True Body suddenly opened its eyes—the left eye was light, the right eye was darkness. It took a step toward Wang Lin, appearing translucent, overlapped with Wang Lin's main body, and merged into Wang Lin the moment it sat down cross-legged.

At this moment, Wang Lin's cultivation aura violently surged, constantly climbing from the Early Stage of the Empty Tribulation Realm. As his cultivation increased, the world changed color, winds and clouds rolled back, and the sky above the Donglin Sect rapidly alternated between darkness and light. This continued until a muffled roar erupted from within Wang Lin's body, his white hair floated up, and his robes fluttered as if blown by a gale. His cultivation had broken through from the Early Stage of the Empty Tribulation Realm, making him a Grand Venerate of the Middle Stage of the Empty Tribulation Realm!!

Wang Lin suddenly stood up. The changes in the world dissipated at that instant, returning to normal. The surrounding wind ceased, all things were still, and there was complete silence.

He stood there. After a long time, his body flickered. Immediately, the Golden Venerate Sea Dragon, which regarded Wang Lin with increasing awe from afar, flew over, allowing Wang Lin to step onto its head as he walked.

Liu Jinbiao swallowed, his gaze toward Wang Lin also filled with awe. This awe had been present in the Immortal Cave Realm and remained completely unchanged on the Immortal Astral Continent. He quickly flew up and came to the back of the Golden Venerate Sea Dragon, standing respectfully behind Wang Lin.

His cultivation had largely recovered in these thirteen years, thanks to the awakening of his memories and his efforts to curry favor with the Golden Venerate Sea Dragon, who had assisted him.

The Sea Dragon ascended into the sky. Wang Lin stood atop its head, looking down at the Donglin Sect below and the Donglin Pool. After a moment of silence, he cupped his fists and bowed deeply toward the Donglin Pool!

"Senior, although you are gone, this Wang will forever remember the grace of the insights you provided." Wang Lin's gaze finally fell upon the Donglin Hall. He vaguely seemed to see the lonely, sorrowful elder inside the great hall.

With a soft sigh, under Wang Lin's Divine Thought, the Sea Dragon's massive body flickered, turning into a long rainbow that shot straight into the distance.

Behind Wang Lin, within the Defunct Donglin Sect submerged by deep mountains, a mournful sigh seemed to echo, containing countless years of loneliness, sorrow, and a persistence… Because of his loneliness, the Dream Barrier evolved, manifesting illusions of memory for companionship.

Because of his sorrow, he remained within this defunct sect under the passage of time, counting his memories and silently guarding.

Because of his persistence, even after thousands of years, the hatred and madness hidden deep within his sorrow seemed to turn into sacrificial blood, stroke by stroke, copying the words on the stone tablet!

Wang Lin departed.

However, he did not leave the Great Saint Continent. Instead, he sat cross-legged on a high peak in the continent, guarded by the Golden Venerate Sea Dragon, utilizing his Formation and Restriction setup, and closed his eyes as he faced the nascent sun in the distant sky.

"I must challenge Heavenly Venerate Nirvana! I passed the fourth level back then; how many levels will I pass this time…" Wang Lin closed his eyes to meditate, calming the fluctuations caused by his rapidly increasing cultivation. Three months later, when he had gradually become familiar and adapted, he raised his right hand and waved it in front of him. Numerous Divine Abilities instantly condensed with this wave.

"In the Early Stage of the Empty Tribulation Realm, restricted by my cultivation, I could fuse a maximum of thirteen Divine Abilities into my body. Now that I am in the Middle Stage of the Empty Tribulation Realm, how many can I fuse… plus the superposition of the True Body and Origins…" A flicker of brilliance and anticipation shone in Wang Lin's eyes.

Taking a deep breath, Wang Lin closed his eyes. His Divine Sense violently condensed at his heavenly spirit, transforming into an invisible entity that shot straight toward the firmament.

"This time, I will shock the world! This time, I will make all the Heavenly Venerates on the Immortal Clan Continent look up and watch… This time, I will be listed as one of the Leap Heavenly Venerates!

This time, I will become the forty-ninth Leap Heavenly Venerate on the Immortal Clan Continent!! This time, I will use the power of the Heavenly Ox Soul Armor!!"

Wang Lin's Divine Sense shot straight toward the Heavenly Curtain, like an invisible pillar of Qi rushing toward the heavens. As it continuously ascended, his mind finally boomed, and when his vision cleared, he saw the strange Heavenly Venerate Nirvana he had visited before!

He saw the great halls floating in the distance, rising layer by layer, and he also saw the hundreds of Heavenly Venerates currently sitting cross-legged outside the first great hall!

Likewise, these Heavenly Venerates also saw Wang Lin, who was speeding toward them as a long rainbow from within the ancient, special Teleportation Formation!

"White-Haired Heavenly Venerate!"

"I remember he consecutively passed the first four levels back then, with very short intervals. We thought he would challenge the fifth level, but he gave up and left…"

"He probably felt he couldn't pass it, so he retreated when he realized the difficulty. This time, he likely has some confidence in passing the fifth level, which is why he's here."

"It's him!" Outside the first great hall stood a black-robed middle-aged man. He seemed to have a solitary personality, and no one was near his location. He was the first to see Wang Lin arrive.

His name was Zhulin! He passed the seventh level back then but stopped at the eighth.

Only a few dozen votes needed to enter the fifth place. Fellow Daoists, can we reach fifth place today!
