Chapter 226 Scabbard

When the old man heard Wang Lin's words, his heart was suddenly alarmed. Just as his body was about to retreat, all he saw before him were rows of red lightning. This was the last sight he would ever see in his life, a scene of soul-chasing.

The extreme realm Divine Sense, which had not been used for a long time, was as sharp as ever. In an instant, it extinguished the old man's Divine Sense. Just as the old man's Nascent Soul was about to leave his body, Wang Lin had already slapped his palm onto the man's chest. Amidst the vibration of Spiritual Qi, the man's Purple Mansion shattered, and his Nascent Soul was completely trapped within, unable to escape. He could only watch helplessly as the other party took out his Nascent Soul and swallowed it alive.

At this moment, in the eyes of the four people hiding in the basin, Wang Lin had already become a complete demon god. Killing a person to take their Nascent Soul and swallowing it alive completely overturned their way of thinking.

You must know that these people were all Devil Cultivators. They had seen people killed for their Nascent Souls, but they had never seen such a terrifying scene of swallowing one alive. It seemed that compared to them, Wang Lin was the true Devil Cultivator.

The four people who had originally prepared to ambush Wang Lin were immediately shaken to their cores. Without a word, they quickly rushed out and fled in different directions.

However, they should not have provoked Wang Lin. Under the extreme realm, Wang Lin's body did not move, but his Divine Sense swept out, catching up with the four of them one by one and killing them on the spot.

This time, killing five people in a row consumed a large amount of Nascent Soul Spiritual Qi from Wang Lin's extreme realm Divine Sense. He moved his body, grabbed the four Nascent Souls, and swallowed them. The Ancient God Art operated rapidly, digesting them completely, and his cultivation improved even further.

Afterwards, Wang Lin put away the five Storage Pouches and opened them one by one. First, he took out the Jade Slip to confirm it was correct, and Wang Lin breathed a sigh of relief. Inside the remaining Storage Pouches, although there were some Magic Treasures, there was one thing that attracted Wang Lin's attention.

The moment he saw this item, the Spiritual Qi in his body surged with the agitation of his mood. It took a long time to gradually calm down. In his hand was a Scabbard!

An ancient Scabbard!

An ancient Scabbard exuding an aura of vicissitudes!

Wang Lin took a deep breath, looked at it carefully for a few moments, and a strange look appeared in his eyes. This Scabbard was exactly the same as the one he had back then, but Wang Lin could be certain that this item was definitely not the Scabbard from back then.

Wang Lin had refined the Scabbard from back then with a Cold Core; he only needed to hold it in his hand to immediately detect the clues. However, this one in front of him did not have any Cold Core aura. Although it looked the same on the outside, Wang Lin could be certain that it was not his.

Besides the Cold Core aura, another important reason he was so certain was that he had used that previous Scabbard many times and clearly remembered that in the middle of the Scabbard, there was a fragmented flower pattern, engraved with a strange symbol.

And this one in front of him, although it also had a symbol, was completely different.

After pondering for a while, Wang Lin slapped his Storage Pouch and took out an ordinary Flying Sword, slowly inserting it into the Scabbard.

When it entered three-fifths of the way, a huge resistance rose from within, preventing the Flying Sword from entering. Wang Lin's eyes flashed, and under the urging of his Spiritual Qi, he suddenly pressed down, and the Flying Sword sank to four-fifths.

Suddenly, Wang Lin's expression changed. He felt a strong Killing Intent coming from the Scabbard. Without any hesitation, he immediately let go, and the Scabbard dropped. The moment he let go, the Killing Intent erupted. First, the Flying Sword immediately shattered into pieces, bursting out. At the same time, a monstrous Killing Intent rushed out from the Scabbard without reservation.

At this moment, the world suddenly darkened. The basin under Wang Lin's feet, as if rolled by a giant millstone, completely dissipated, and a deep gully extended hundreds of feet away.

Wang Lin's scalp felt a bit numb. He glanced at the Scabbard, couldn't help but take a deep breath, and carefully put it into the Storage Pouch, not daring to touch it again.

With his current cultivation, he naturally saw that there was clearly a Killing Intent sealed within this Scabbard. Just now, when he forcibly inserted the Flying Sword, some Killing Intent emerged, but just that little bit had such power. If all the Killing Intent within were released, what kind of scene would that be? Wang Lin dared not imagine.

Because of this, he was even more certain that this Scabbard was not the one he had back then!

The Scabbard from back then, its Divine Ability lay in increasing the power of the Flying Sword. Entering one-fifth and entering three-fifths was like heaven and earth; the difference in power was huge.

After a moment of silence, Wang Lin felt a trace of curiosity about this Scabbard. He secretly guessed in his heart that there seemed to be more than two of these Scabbards…

Inside a volcano in the Fire Burning Country, this volcano had been cast by a Cultivator using Divine Ability, changing from alive to dead, becoming a dead mountain with no magma.

Inside, the entire volcano was dug out with countless secret rooms, large and small, and in each secret room sat a Cultivator.

These people were the survivors of the Fire Burning Country after experiencing a series of upheavals.

Back then, the Fire Burning Country settled in the State of Xuanwu. In the end, the State of Xuanwu, along with other nearby cultivation Countries, launched an attack together, driving the four sects of the Fire Burning Country out of their territory. It was also during this upheaval that Li Muwan traveled far away.

Under this volcano, there was a complete stone mansion. This was something the War God Hall brought away when they retreated from the State of Xuanwu, at the cost of several Nascent Soul Cultivators.

Here, the remains of the ancestors of the War God Hall and the stone walls of the Divine Daoist Magic were stored.

At this moment, among the many crystal ripple doors in this stone mansion, one of them suddenly flashed with light. Immediately after, a withered arm reached out from deep within, and slowly, a corpse that was almost completely withered all over its body walked out from inside.

After he walked out, he pressed his right hand on the ground. Suddenly, streams of green aura rushed from all directions of the entire Immortal Cave, quickly drilling into this person's body. Very quickly, his body squirmed strangely, and muscles and skin slowly grew out.

Not long after, a young man exuding a gloomy aura all over his body appeared.

This person's appearance was quite handsome, but he was full of an evil aura. His eyes revealed a sense of vicissitudes and confusion, which only gradually solidified after a long time.

He was silent for a moment, and muttered to himself: "Three thousand years of healing, finally allowed my cultivation to recover by thirty percent." He clenched his right fist, frowned slightly, and muttered to himself: "It is about equivalent to the Nascent Soul Transformation stage. Although it is not enough, if I combine it with the Star Compass, it is enough to break through the defensive screen of this planet. If I can return to my home planet, presumably the healing time will be faster."

He took a deep breath and slapped his right hand on his waist. But immediately, a strange look appeared in his eyes. He looked down and saw his waist was empty. He was stunned for a moment, and his face immediately became gloomy.

This person didn't say a word and waved his right hand in front of him. Suddenly, a crystal screen appeared in front of him, swaying, and after a long time, it fixed on a scene.

It clearly showed the scene of Wang Lin entering this stone mansion and taking away the Storage Pouch.

The young man stared at Wang Lin on the crystal screen, didn't say a word, and formed Hand Seals with his right hand. Immediately after, he closed his eyes, and his Divine Sense slowly spread out. As his Divine Sense spread, he clearly felt that at a certain location, there was the Divine Sense fluctuation of his Storage Pouch.

This person opened his eyes, shook his body, and immediately disappeared from the spot. When he appeared, he was already above the Cultivation Devil Sea. He shouted in a low voice: "Heavenly Ghost Soul Searching Technique!"

Suddenly, countless green lights drilled out from his body. As these green lights moved, they immediately turned into human shapes one by one, quickly becoming exactly the same as this person, and then suddenly scattered in all directions.

The young man flashed and disappeared.

Let's talk about Wang Lin. At this time, he was stepping on the Mosquito Beast, flying rapidly. In his hand, he was holding a Jade Slip. This Jade Slip was exactly the item of Zhou Wude.

With the Jade Slip, Wang Lin was anxious to return home. He wished that the speed could be ten times, a hundred times, or a thousand times faster, so that he could return to the State of Zhao in an instant.

However, reality is cruel. After getting the Jade Slip, Wang Lin found the location of the State of Zhao on it, but it was quite far from his location. Wang Lin analyzed by himself that if he relied on flying, it would likely take several years to return to the State of Zhao.

This was obviously not what Wang Lin wanted. In this way, he had to use the Ancient Teleportation Formation. Fortunately, the description of the Ancient Teleportation Formation in the Cultivation Devil Sea in the Jade Slip was very detailed. Under Wang Lin's careful search, he planned a path back to the State of Zhao for himself.

On this road, he needed to pass through a total of three Ancient Teleportation Formations.

One was in the Cultivation Devil Sea, and the other two were on the continent belonging to the State of Zhao.

The place Wang Lin was heading to now was exactly where that Ancient Teleportation Formation was located. The Jade Slip showed that the integrity of this Teleportation Formation was not high, but it was still usable. It was just that Wang Lin did not know how long the time recorded in this Jade Slip was from the present, whether that Teleportation Formation was still there, and whether it could still be used.

With these questions, Wang Lin urged the Mosquito Beast under his feet and galloped all the way.

The location of this Ancient Teleportation Formation belonged to the edge of the inner sea. There were many Yao Beasts here. Along the way, Wang Lin had already encountered several High Grade Spirit Beasts, and even encountered a Desolate Beast.

Fortunately, his Divine Sense was powerful, and he always discovered them in advance and bypassed them.

One month later, after Wang Lin traveled day and night without stopping, he finally arrived at the place where the Ancient Teleportation Formation was located. This was a plain, and countless seabed plants grew on the plain. After being nourished by the Black Rain, these plants also evolved towards Yao Beasts, and their aggressiveness was extremely strong.

They stretched out red branches and leaves, swaying slowly. At first glance, this place was quite beautiful, but under Wang Lin's Divine Sense sweep, he discovered that under these plants, it was full of white bones. These bones included Cultivators and Yao Beasts.

Wang Lin was silent for a moment. While sweeping with his Divine Sense, he had already seen the Ancient Teleportation Formation. He leaped off the Mosquito Beast, galloped away, and in the blink of an eye, he arrived on the Teleportation Formation.

Wang Lin frowned slightly. There were too many red-leafed plants here, not only covering the Ancient Teleportation Formation, but there were also many branches and forks actually growing on the Teleportation Formation. In this way, this Formation must be damaged.

His eyes flashed, his right hand flipped, and the black Flying Sword suddenly flew out, like black lightning, slashing towards the plants on the ground. Every time a plant was cut off, a red liquid that seemed like blood sprayed out from it. Gradually, there was more and more liquid, covering the ground.
