Chapter 240: Exterminating the Teng Family (End)

Teng Huayuan slapped his Storage Pouch, and immediately a large sword flew out. This sword was about ten feet long, exuding an ancient aura. He bit his tongue, spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, and his entire body instantly weakened. However, the large sword suddenly flashed, its tip pointing at Wang Lin, and amidst flickering electricity, it swung down with a roar.

Wang Lin's eyes flickered. The moment the large sword charged, his extreme realm Divine Sense furiously spread out, transforming into streaks of lightning that instantly enveloped the Flying Sword. Amidst crackling sounds, the large sword gradually dissipated. Finally, Wang Lin's body swayed, his extreme realm Divine Sense exhausted. The large sword fragmented and turned into ashes.

Wang Lin grabbed with his large hand, and several Teng Family Nascent Souls immediately flew out from his Storage Pouch. After he swallowed them, the Nascent Soul essence Qi in his body rapidly replenished.

Teng Huayuan stared blankly in the direction where the large sword disappeared, and his entire being instantly aged.

Wang Lin formed Hand Seals with his right hand and pointed at his glabella. The Devil Head Xu Ligou and the Third Devil Head immediately floated out, roaring excitedly under Wang Lin's Divine Thought, and pounced towards the surrounding Teng Family members.

In a flash, several more people screamed and died. Each scream made Teng Huayuan's body tremble.

"Will you speak or not?" Wang Lin's voice was exceptionally cold.

Teng Huayuan took a deep breath and closed his eyes.

Wang Lin's expression was calm. He didn't even look at Teng Huayuan, changing Hand Seals with both hands and casting a Restriction. Immediately, the Restriction ten thousand li outside Teng Family City suddenly moved, slowly contracting.

Those Teng Family members who had fled to the edge watched the constantly shrinking Restriction in despair, undergoing two extreme changes. One change was to completely give up resistance, while the other was to have bloodshot eyes, taking out their Magic Treasures and, disregarding everything, flying towards Wang Lin like moths to a flame.

Gradually, more and more Teng Family members rushed towards Wang Lin. However, as soon as they entered within a thousand li, they would be struck by the Restriction Qi descending from the sky, their bodies turning into a rain of blood, scattering across the earth.

The screams of his clansmen echoed in Teng Huayuan's ears, his body trembling violently, a wave of sorrow surging in his heart. He tried to resist, but even the Magic Treasure gifted by the Upper Cultivation Country was useless.

Teng Huayuan's face aged once more. At this moment, he no longer possessed his former demeanor; all that remained was an old man watching his clansmen being killed, powerless to protect them.

"I… will speak!"

Teng Huayuan's eyes revealed deep hatred. He looked at Wang Lin and said, word by word, "Since my Teng Family has suffered this calamity, then no one else should escape either. Back then, it was Gao Qiming of the Misty Sect. It was he who used his Divine Calculation technique to help me find your Wang Family's location. It was him! Go find him. He is now the First Ancestor of the Misty Sect; in the entire Misty Sect, what he says goes!"

"Gao Qiming!" Wang Lin stared at Teng Huayuan. Regardless of whether the other party was telling the truth or not, Wang Lin remembered this name.

Looking at Teng Huayuan, Wang Lin suddenly changed his expression, glanced into the distance, then a killing intent flashed in his eyes. With a wave of his right hand, the constantly shrinking Restriction suddenly accelerated, instantly arriving from ten thousand li away. During this process, all the Cultivators within, without even time to scream, perished.

At the same time, individual heads, controlled by some mysterious power, flew up and landed on the head tower. Gradually, this head tower grew larger and larger, eventually almost towering into the clouds.

Thus, the entire Teng Family, except for Teng Huayuan, perished!

On the ground, blood flowed like a river, emitting a pungent, bloody smell.

Teng Huayuan stared blankly at everything before him, then suddenly burst into maniacal laughter. The laughter was filled with endless sorrow, and two lines of bloody tears streamed from the corners of his eyes.

Wang Lin quietly watched Teng Huayuan. After a long time, Teng Huayuan took a deep breath, looked up at the sky, and said with a voice full of vicissitude and indignation, "Good, good. From this day forward, all grievances between our Wang and Teng families are settled. I killed your entire clan, you exterminated my Bloodline. Karma cycles, indeed Karma cycles. Wang Lin, do it!"

Wang Lin raised his right hand, and a crystal glow flickered at his fingertip. The spiritual power within his body surged, gathering at his fingertip.

But just then, a loud shout came from the horizon: "Stop!"

Hearing this voice, Teng Huayuan immediately recognized it as Piao Nanzi. His heart was ecstatic; he knew that he had a chance to live today. A deep killing intent appeared in his gaze as he looked at Wang Lin.

His desire to survive immediately became active. If there was even the slightest possibility, he absolutely did not want to die. What settlement of grievances? That was only something he said under the premise that he believed he was certain to die.

If he could survive today, Teng Huayuan swore that he would reach the Soul Transformation Stage in this life, even if it meant sacrificing everything, he would reach the Soul Transformation Realm. Then, he would cruelly kill Wang Lin to avenge today's humiliation!

However, he overestimated Piao Nanzi and underestimated Wang Lin. As early as when Piao Nanzi was ten thousand li away, he had already been detected by Wang Lin's Divine Sense, which was comparable to the Soul Transformation Stage. How could Piao Nanzi be allowed to stop him?

The moment Piao Nanzi appeared, the crystal glow in Wang Lin's hand flicked out, landing on Teng Huayuan's glabella. A formidable figure thus perished!

Indeed, as he said, from then on, the grievances between the Wang and Teng families were settled. The Teng Family's Bloodline had already vanished from the world, severed… Piao Nanzi's figure suddenly arrived nearby. He stared blankly at the blood on the ground and the countless flesh and blood, then looked at the eyes of Teng Huayuan's fallen corpse, which had just sparked with a desire to live. Finally, his gaze fell upon the head tower that towered into the clouds, and a chill immediately rose within him.

Without any hesitation, he immediately formed Hand Seals with both hands, and two lights, one green and one red, flew out from his Storage Pouch as he changed them.

Wang Lin's expression was normal. He stared at Piao Nanzi and said calmly, "You are too late."

Piao Nanzi looked at Wang Lin, suddenly startled, and then looked closely a few more times, exclaiming, "You… you are that Disciple from the Hengyue School back then!"

Wang Lin glanced at Piao Nanzi. Without a word, his extreme realm Divine Sense flashed out. However, the moment it attacked Piao Nanzi, the two green and red lights automatically formed a protective barrier in front of him. As the extreme realm Divine Sense descended, the two green and red lights flickered intensely, ultimately resisting it by a hair's breadth, though their luster dimmed considerably.

Piao Nanzi's expression changed. Without any hesitation, he bit his tongue, spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, and it landed on the two green and red lights.

Pointing at Wang Lin, Piao Nanzi shouted, "Go!"

Immediately, the two green and red wheels sped away. Around them, layers of spatial Rifts were constantly being torn apart. Wang Lin pointed with his right hand, and all the Restriction Qi within the Restriction Banner surged out, transforming into giant Dragons, blocking the advance of the two green and red wheels.

However, the quality of those two green and red wheels was clearly extremely high. The Restriction Qi could only slightly obstruct them but could not stop their momentum.

Wang Lin's eyes flashed, and his extreme realm Divine Sense surged out again. This time, it transformed into a series of lightning bolts, whistling towards him, but its target was not the two green and red lights, but Piao Nanzi.

Piao Nanzi's expression changed dramatically. At the moment of crisis, a large hand suddenly reached out from the void, grabbed the lightning bolt formed by the extreme realm Divine Sense, and gently squeezed. Immediately, the lightning shattered and dissipated completely. However, that large hand also trembled, and a faint hum echoed from the void.

Immediately after, a slightly plump middle-aged man in luxurious robes appeared in front of Piao Nanzi. He glanced at Wang Lin, his gaze pausing, but then immediately revealing ecstasy, saying, "So it's you!" Saying that, he beckoned with his right hand, and immediately the two green and red lights returned to his side, circling around him.

After the middle-aged man appeared, Piao Nanzi let out a sigh of relief and bowed respectfully, saying, "Greetings, Envoy Sir."

Although Piao Nanzi let out a big sigh of relief, his scalp was faintly tingling. He didn't know what kind of Magic Treasure that red lightning was, but the moment the lightning struck, he felt the same sense of life-and-death crisis he had experienced struggling on the Outer Realm Battlefield back then.

He had no doubt that if Envoy Sir hadn't appeared, he would now be a dead body. Thinking of this, his gaze towards Wang Lin, besides deep fear, also held a hint of elusive regret.

"You actually didn't die, and in just four hundred years, you've reached such cultivation. Very good. Hand over the Heaven Defying Bead, and I'll spare your life! I'll make you the number one person in the State of Zhao, how about it?" The middle-aged man stared at Wang Lin and slowly said.

Wang Lin's expression was as usual. This person's appearance was within his expectations. Moreover, he had already discovered this person's tracks ten thousand li away. This person was precisely the Envoy of the Tongtian Pagoda, a person from a Fourth-Grade Cultivation Country. In Wang Lin's view, his cultivation could only be at the Soul Transformation Stage, with no other possibility.

If not for the Soul Transformation Stage, how could he so easily destroy extreme realm Divine Sense?

As for this person knowing that Wang Lin possessed the Heaven Defying Bead, Wang Lin had already considered this when he sought revenge. Therefore, when he was in the State of Zhao, his Divine Sense always enveloped his entire body. In this way, with his Divine Sense comparable to the Soul Transformation Stage, as long as he wasn't face-to-face at close range, no one could see his appearance.

Moreover, no one could lock onto him with Divine Sense, which was also why the other party had not appeared during these nine days of his slaughter.

Actually, the middle-aged man was also a bit puzzled in his heart. During this period, his Divine Sense often swept across the State of Zhao, but he could never find the mysterious person who killed the Teng Family, which greatly perplexed him.

Unless the other party's Divine Sense was stronger than his, otherwise, this was simply impossible. But one must know that although his cultivation had not advanced for these four hundred years, he was still at the Early Stage of Soul Transformation. Such cultivation, in the State of Zhao, absolutely no one could surpass.

However, he could never guess that although Wang Lin's cultivation was at the Nascent Soul Stage, his Divine Sense had already reached the Late Stage of Soul Transformation. Let alone him, even if the Giant Demon Race giant from back then came personally, in terms of Divine Sense searching, it would be absolutely impossible to discover Wang Lin.

Such a thing is extremely rare in the Cultivation World. After all, Wang Lin is the only one who walks in the mortal Realm in a Soul Devourer state.

In addition, there was that strange red lightning just now. Although the middle-aged man appeared to have casually received it, in reality, that red lightning penetrated deep into his bones, causing some damage to his Divine Sense. Although the damage was not great, it was still shocking to him.

Now, seeing the other party appear, Wang Lin's eyes flashed, and without a word, he took out a drop of blood from his Storage Pouch.

A drop of golden blood.

A drop of ancient god golden blood exuding waves of pressure.

"Wang has been waiting for you for a long time!" Wang Lin said with killing intent in his eyes. He gently tapped the blood with his right hand, and the blood instantly boiled, transforming into a golden symbol that shot up into the sky.

Taking a break today, no three updates. Will resume tomorrow.
