Chapter 242: Cultivation Star Crystal

"The power of the Heavenly Tribulation. I never expected to see such a Magic Treasure on this small, abandoned Cultivation Planet!" the sinister young man said slowly, staring at the fine thread in Wang Lin's hand.

Wang Lin kept his eyes fixed on the man. When the man first saw the Heavenly Tribulation thread and a fleeting look of apprehension crossed his eyes, Wang Lin finally breathed a sigh of relief.

If the opponent had been indifferent to the Heavenly Tribulation or simply didn't care, Wang Lin would have had no choice but to enter the Heaven Defying space to hide, even though that wasn't a good solution.

The sinister young man was also quite irritable internally at this moment. He truly hadn't expected to see the Power of Heavenly Tribulation on this planet. If he were at the peak of his cultivation, encountering this power would be fine; he would be absolutely certain he could destroy this thread of Heavenly Tribulation.

But now, he had only recovered thirty percent of his cultivation, barely equivalent to the Early Stage of Nascent Soul Transformation. As a result, although he could resist the Power of Heavenly Tribulation, his cultivation would inevitably drop again. Once he fell below the Nascent Soul Transformation Stage, he would have to find another place to enter seclusion and recuperate, unable to leave this planet.

Because the minimum requirement for using the Star Compass is the Nascent Soul Transformation Stage!

These were not the main issues. The most important thing was that inside the Teleportation Formation just now, he sensed a power that shook his heart and mind—a power he was extremely familiar with.

The sinister young man snorted, no longer looking at the Power of Heavenly Tribulation. Instead, he fixed his gaze on Wang Lin and shouted, "Junior, hand over the Storage Pouch, and this matter will be settled."

"Senior, is this what you want?" Wang Lin asked with a solemn look, staring at the man as he took a Storage Pouch from his bosom.

The sinister young man immediately looked over, nodded, and said, "That's right, throw it over."

Wang Lin hesitated slightly. The opponent's speed was too fast. Even if he demanded the opponent stay far away, or waited until he had traveled a certain distance before giving the Storage Pouch, it would be useless. If the opponent truly wanted to pursue him, it would certainly be extremely easy.

After a moment of silence, Wang Lin decisively threw out the Storage Pouch.

The sinister young man took the Storage Pouch, scanned it with his Divine Sense, and his expression softened slightly. He glanced at Wang Lin, his face unreadable.

Wang Lin stared at the opponent, placed the Heavenly Tribulation thread in front of him, and slowly said, "Senior, this Junior has returned the Storage Pouch. I will take my leave." As he spoke, he carefully retreated.

The sinister young man looked at Wang Lin, and his eyes suddenly flashed with a strange light. Immediately, two beams of Five-Colored Light shot out from his eyes, rushing toward Wang Lin at an unimaginable speed.

Wang Lin had remained cautious. Without the slightest hesitation, his extreme realm Divine Sense instantly rushed out of his eyes and collided with the opponent's Five-Colored Light. Immediately afterward, Wang Lin spat out a mouthful of blood as the lightning formed by his extreme realm Divine Sense shattered under the Five-Colored Light.

At the same time, as Wang Lin rapidly retreated without a word, he slapped his Storage Pouch, took out the Restriction Banner, and with a wave of his right hand, the final Restriction appeared in his grasp, about to land on the Restriction Banner.

At this moment, the sinister young man's expression changed drastically. He quickly said, "Stop! Little friend, don't be rash!" After speaking, he rapidly retreated a few steps, staring at the Restriction Banner with a look of horror on his face.

He smiled bitterly internally. A single Heavenly Tribulation thread could cause his cultivation to drop, but it wasn't lethal; at most, it meant he would have to cultivate in seclusion for a thousand years.

But the moment he saw the Restriction Banner in Wang Lin's hand, he suddenly understood why this Junior possessed the Power of Heavenly Tribulation. Although he didn't recognize the Restriction Banner, he could tell at a glance that it belonged to the type of Magic Treasure capable of summoning the Heavenly Tribulation.

He also had a few such Magic Treasures in his Storage Pouch, and he deeply understood the power of the summoned Heavenly Tribulation. If he allowed the Junior to act recklessly now, it wouldn't be as simple as his cultivation dropping; it was highly likely that he would never recover his cultivation again.

Wang Lin still had residual blood on the corner of his mouth. He stared at the sinister man. Now, as long as he had a single thought, the final Restriction could land on the Restriction Banner. At that point, even if he sacrificed the Magic Treasure, by using the Heavenly Tribulation thread as an attractant, he could certainly draw out a portion of the Heavenly Tribulation summoned after the Restriction Banner reached Minor Achievement and direct it onto this man.

"This Junior has already returned the Storage Pouch, and not a single item was touched. Why did Senior go back on your word!" Wang Lin stared at the opponent and slowly said.

The sinister young man was silent for a moment, then suddenly asked, "Was the Red Lightning you used just now the extreme realm?" His tone carried a hint of uncertainty.

Wang Lin's expression remained calm, but giant waves surged in his heart. He looked at the opponent without speaking.

The sinister young man stared at Wang Lin and said, "It must be right. What you used just now was indeed the extreme realm!" At this moment, extremely complicated emotions surged within him. The shock Wang Lin brought him was continuous.

On this Semi-Abandoned Planet, possessing the Power of Heavenly Tribulation was already incredible. Not only did this person have the Power of Heavenly Tribulation, but he also had a Magic Treasure that could trigger it, and on top of that, he had actually produced the extreme realm.

It was this trace of the extreme realm that instantly dissolved his killing intent.

The sinister young man took a deep breath, his eyes showing a strange look.

Wang Lin's expression was normal, his gaze calm. After a moment of silence, he said, "Senior, if there is nothing else, this Junior will take his leave!" As he spoke, he cautiously retreated. If the opponent made any further move, he would trigger the Heavenly Tribulation without hesitation.

The sinister young man hesitated for a moment and said, "Don't you want your extreme realm to break through its Bottleneck?"

Wang Lin paused and looked at the opponent.

The sinister young man hesitated again, then sighed and said, "Forget it. Kid, listen up. The extreme realm is an extreme power. If you want this power to achieve a Breakthrough, it's difficult, extremely difficult! But it's not impossible."

Wang Lin remained unmoved, simply watching the man quietly.

The sinister young man showed a look of appreciation in his eyes. Suddenly, his eyes flashed, and the Five-Colored Light slowly emerged from them, turning into a Five-Colored Light Sphere floating above his palm.

Wang Lin immediately became extremely vigilant, staring at the Five-Colored Light Sphere.

The sinister young man looked at the Five-Colored Light Sphere, complicated thoughts surging in his heart. He was silent for a moment, then said with a hint of melancholy, "Use your Divine Sense to examine it."

Wang Lin pondered for a moment. After sweeping it with his Divine Sense, his expression immediately turned strange. He hesitated and said, "This is…" He had actually detected a trace of the extreme realm within the Five-Colored Light Sphere. This discovery immediately shook his heart.

The sinister young man took a deep breath and slowly said, "Did you find it? This Five-Colored Light Sphere is called the Five-Colored extreme realm on my Mother Planet. It wasn't originally mine, but was given to me by a friend before he died."

Wang Lin gasped, his eyes flickering as he stared at the Five-Colored Light Sphere.

The sinister young man clenched his right hand, and the Five-Colored Light Sphere vanished. He glanced at Wang Lin and said, "There are many types of extreme realms, and no one knows exactly how many. Cultivators who possess the extreme realm are not common throughout the entire Cultivation Alliance. Therefore, I cannot discern the extreme realm Attribute of your extreme realm. But I know that regardless of the attribute, all extreme realms have a limit, and once that limit is reached, it becomes very difficult to achieve a Breakthrough.

I know of a method that can allow the extreme realm Divine Sense to achieve a Breakthrough. That is the Cultivation Star Crystal. This crystal is automatically condensed when every Level Six Cultivation Country receives its title, through the simultaneous Heaven Worship performed by several old men of the Cultivation Alliance, where heavenly might manifests Divine Power. It is the National Treasure of a Level Six Cultivation Country.

If this treasure is obtained by an extreme realm Cultivator, it has a certain probability of catalyzing the extreme realm, allowing it to break through its limit."

Wang Lin's expression was somewhat unsightly. The National Treasure of a Level Six Cultivation Country was clearly not something he could obtain.

After the sinister young man finished speaking, he gave Wang Lin a deep look, slapped his Storage Pouch, and pulled out a palm-sized Black Compass. He then slapped it with his right hand, and the Compass suddenly grew larger, floating in mid-air, emitting waves of soft light beams.

"If you can obtain a Cultivation Star Crystal in the future and gain the qualification to leave this Abandoned Planet, you can come find me on the Five Elements Planet. My name is Nado." After saying this, the man ascended, slowly disappearing inside the Compass. Immediately afterward, the Compass spun rapidly, and gradually, a shimmering, Pitch-Black Void appeared silently in the air. Inside the void was a brilliant starry sky, dotted with countless stars, truly beautiful.

The Compass moved and entered the Pitch-Black Void. Subsequently, the void rapidly contracted, disappearing without a trace in the blink of an eye.

Wang Lin secretly called himself lucky that the man hadn't pursued the matter of the Storage Pouch. Both the Restriction Banner and the Heavenly Tribulation thread were his ultimate Magic Treasures, especially the Heavenly Tribulation thread, which he was truly reluctant to use unless absolutely necessary.

He looked at the Black Void disappearing in mid-air, a strong desire surging in his heart. In his youth, he yearned to fly high in the sky, but now, he yearned for the qualification to soar through the starry sky.

Taking a deep breath, Wang Lin turned and left.

The Cultivation Star Crystal of a Level Six Cultivation Country was obviously not something he could obtain currently. Regardless of whether the sinister young man's words were true or false, this was a clue. If he gained the cultivation necessary to obtain this item, Wang Lin wouldn't mind trying to acquire it.

Right now, all he needed to do was figure out how to reach the Soul Transformation Stage!

The Soul Transformation Stage is the threshold for a Level Three Cultivation Country to advance to Level Four, and its difficulty is extremely high. One must know that across the entire Vermilion Bird Planet, the number of Level Three cultivation Countries is vast, but there are fewer than twenty Level Four cultivation Countries.

This number alone is enough to illustrate the difficulty of the Soul Transformation Stage.

To raise his cultivation to Soul Transformation, the Spiritual Energy and environment of a Level Three Cultivation Country clearly couldn't meet the requirement. Wang Lin's goal was to find a Level Four Cultivation Country and attempt the Soul Transformation Stage.

He took out a Map Jade Slip from his Storage Pouch. After looking at it for a moment, he locked onto a Level Four Cultivation Country called the Five Sect Alliance, which was the closest Level Four Cultivation Country to his current location.

Half a month later, the boundary of the Five Sect Alliance was in sight. At the border, there was a Light Barrier Checkpoint, which was one of the differences between Level Four and Level Three cultivation Countries. This Light Barrier prevented any outsiders from entering.

Wang Lin approached the Light Barrier. After observing it for a moment, he moved his right hand, sending out a Residual Restriction Image that landed on the Light Barrier, immediately creating a dissolving opening.

Without saying a word, Wang Lin flashed his body and slipped inside.
