Chapter 267: Snow Domain Descends
Wang Lin stood rooted for a long time, watching Big Ox and his wife leave. More than thirty years ago, Big Ox was still a young man in his prime; in the blink of an eye, Big Ox had already married, had children, and entered middle age.
Just like the Life and Death Concept he comprehended, all things in this world ultimately cannot escape life and death.
Wang Lin gave a wry smile, then tapped the light screen with his right hand. Immediately, the light screen merged amidst the flickering five-colored light. Wang Lin looked up at his surroundings, pondered for a moment, and did not leave the Four Sects Alliance immediately, because he had one goal yet to achieve.
That was the Rain Cauldron!
This Rain Cauldron, to the Four Sects Alliance, was a calamity, but at the same time, it was also a treasure. It was an effective way for Soul Transformation Cultivators to advance to Nascent Soul Transformation.
For Wang Lin, this Rain Cauldron was also an opportunity for his future cultivation. The more he felt the arrival of Soul Transformation, the more Wang Lin could perceive that the Spiritual Qi between heaven and earth no longer seemed as… pure as before!
It was as if this Spiritual Qi was filled with impurities. This wasn't to say that the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi had changed in recent years, but rather that Wang Lin's cultivation and Concept had improved, allowing his entire body to detect the problems within this Spiritual Qi.
If Cultivators below the Soul Transformation Stage absorbed the Spiritual Qi of heaven and earth, it wouldn't cause much harm, as such Cultivators couldn't detect the impurities within the Spiritual Qi.
However, if one reached Soul Transformation and wanted to advance further, the role of this Spiritual Qi would be paramount. As for the Spiritual Qi dew collected by the Heaven Defying Bead, perhaps due to the incompleteness of the Five Elements, although slightly purer, it was still somewhat lacking.
It's just that the Five Elements are truly difficult to collect. Aside from the water attribute, the other attributes, just like the fire attribute, require a fire-attributed Desolate Beast to fully replenish.
The other incomplete attributes also require the spirits of Desolate Beasts of their respective elements. It is precisely because of this that Wang Lin has been unable to complete them for over four hundred years.
Wang Lin was determined to enter the Immortal Gate to obtain Immortal Spiritual Qi, so his goal was set on the Rain Cauldron.
However, now was clearly not the time to acquire the Rain Cauldron. The true critical moment would be during the war between the Snow Domain Cultivators and the Four Sects Alliance.
Thinking of this, Wang Lin's eyes showed a calm light. He found a snow peak that towered into the clouds, and his entire being slowly sank into it.
As his body sank, he took out the Restriction Banner from his Storage Pouch and activated it to cover his surroundings. Soon, Wang Lin's entire body completely disappeared into the snow peak.
Wang Lin didn't know when the Snow Domain Cultivators would arrive, so he prepared to seize every moment to hasten the final step of his Soul Transformation. This way, his chances of obtaining the Rain Cauldron would also be greater.
In a blink of an eye, a year passed. Perhaps the Formation in the sky was working, or perhaps the Snow Domain Cultivators were about to arrive; in any case, the heavy snow gradually lessened.
The entire territory of the Four Sects Alliance was already covered in ice and snow. During this year, a large number of Mortals died. Although no corpses could be seen on the ground, what one stepped on was built from ice, snow, and dead bodies. The Mortal realm of the entire Four Sects Alliance had become a death prison.
In fact, the Four Sects had already split into two factions: one intended to avoid the storm, and the other was determined to resist to the end. After all, this was not an evenly matched fight; the Snow Domain Country was only a fourth-rank Cultivation Country!
On this day, from the giant Rifts tens of thousands of miles above the sky, a large amount of deep blue cold Qi suddenly emanated. From the Rift in the very center of the Four Sects Alliance, a woman walked out.
This woman was dressed in white, as if she surpassed snow. Her appearance was not absolutely beautiful, but she possessed a coldness like deep winter, as if even the ice and snow were not a fraction as cold as she was.
She slowly walked out of the Rift, glanced at the ground from high in the sky, then raised her right hand and casually pointed at the Void Realm. Immediately, threads of Rifts silently appeared in mid-air, rapidly spreading.
Cracking sounds, like shattering glass, suddenly spread throughout the entire territory of the Four Sects Alliance at this moment. At the same time, the Formation covering the wind and snow in the sky turned into layers of fragments, falling from mid-air like a snowstorm, landing in every corner of the territory on both sides of the Four Sects.
Immediately after, countless Cultivators dressed in white walked out of all the Rifts. All these Cultivators had one thing in common: their expressions were cold and sinister. The chill emanating from their bodies instantly permeated every corner of the Four Sects Alliance.
A chilling aura of killing intent enveloped the Four Sects Alliance territory.
At the same time, the many Cultivators of the Four Sects Alliance mysteriously did not appear, allowing the Snow Domain Cultivators to emerge one by one from the Rifts.
Slowly, the Snow Domain Cultivators grew in number, but no one made a sound. Their gazes were all fixed on the woman in white in the center.
Even those far away cast their gazes in the direction of the woman.
The woman's gaze was icy cold. She pointed downwards with her right hand, and this simple action instantly ignited the killing intent of all the Snow Domain Cultivators. They transformed into streaks of white light and descended from the sky with a roar.
Once they moved, it immediately triggered a series of chain reactions. Instantly, all the Snow Domain Cultivators in the sky above the Four Sects Alliance descended.
However, just as they descended from mid-air, four towering pillars of light instantly rose from the four directions of the Four Sects Alliance territory: southeast, northwest.
Four-colored light pillars of green, red, purple, and white, like colossal columns supporting heaven and earth, suddenly appeared. At the same time, several illusory giant figures immediately condensed upon these light pillars. They rapidly solidified, transforming into ancient savages clad only in leather armor.
If one looked closely at these giant savages, one could find that within their massive chests, a Cultivator was seated. Although their cultivation could not be discerned, they were clearly not low-level Cultivators.
One by one, giant savages materialized from the four light pillars, taking steps and roaring as they charged towards the Snow Domain Cultivators descending from the sky.
These savages were numerous, and as they stomped together, it seemed as if the entire world trembled.
After these savages charged out, a roar came from the location of the Eastern White Cloud Sect. A huge black rock floated high into the air, and upon this rock sat an old man whose entire body was bound by nine chains.
This old man was sallow and emaciated, enveloped in Death Qi. His entire body was almost naked, with only a few strips of cloth covering his shame.
His hair was disheveled, and his dim eyes stared at the Snow Domain Cultivators in mid-air. He stuck out his tongue and licked his lips.
His tongue was extremely long, extending out like a Prodigy, a shocking sight.
Immediately after, a roar also came from the direction of the Southern Ink Sect. A massive bronze cauldron slowly floated up from behind the Ink Sect mountain. This bronze cauldron was engraved with countless ancient incantations, and a trace of primordial Qi slowly diffused from it.
An old man in a red robe sat atop the bronze cauldron, gazing calmly at the sky.
The Western Green Wood Cliff also refused to be outdone. As anomalies appeared in both the east and west, a black sludge about a hundred zhang in size, emitting a rotting smell, floated up from Green Wood Cliff. Bubbles occasionally rose from this black sludge, and from time to time, faces full of pain would emerge within the sludge.
As this black sludge appeared, even the surrounding wind and snow seemed to tremble.
The next moment, from the Northern Black Soul Sect, amidst neat shouts, a seemingly very frail young man slowly floated into the air. His face was somewhat pale, as if he had just recovered from a serious illness.
After his body floated into the sky, he beckoned downwards with his right hand. Immediately, countless black gases appeared from the entire Black Soul Sect on the ground.
These gases intertwined, forming a black brush. As this brush appeared, the wind and clouds immediately changed color. Even the red-robed old man on the bronze cauldron and the emaciated person locked by nine iron chains on the black rock seemed to sense something, revealing looks of shock.
This seemingly ordinary brush slowly fell into the young man's hand. The moment he grasped the brush, a strange flush appeared on his face.
How could the Four Sects have made no preparations during this past year? In fact, they had long been eager for battle. In this war of annihilation, they had already brought out their respective Schools' ultimate treasure!
With this, they would launch a counterattack!
After all, the vast majority of Cultivators within the Four Sects Alliance grew up on this land. Although there were disagreements due to the arrival of the Snow Domain Cultivators, they ultimately united completely to face the external threat.
Because they did not want to become homeless dogs, unwilling to even protect their own homeland.
People cannot be without a home, and Cultivators are also people.
This was a fight to the death!
Unless one side could completely annihilate the other, they would fight to the death!
The woman in white in mid-air, with an icy gaze, softly said, "Erase them. This will be the new national seat for us Snow Domain Cultivators!"
As soon as these words were uttered, the Snow Domain Cultivators roared in unison. This roar gradually merged into one, and as it reached its peak, the woman formed a hand seal with her right hand, and a five-colored light flashed from her hand.
After this five-colored light appeared, it immediately transformed into five women identical to her. However, these five women were not Clones!
At this moment, Wang Lin was beneath a snow peak within the Four Sects Alliance territory. His Divine Sense had already extended here, and the Heaven Defying Bead, which was integrated into his Divine Sense, suddenly trembled the moment he saw these five Clones.
At this time, there were many Divine Senses in the sky, so naturally, no one paid attention to Wang Lin's Divine Sense.
Wang Lin immediately opened his eyes beneath the snow peak, a strange light in them. He muttered, "Five Elements Spirit!"
Back then, the Heaven Defying Bead had only swallowed one Fire Spirit, and the fire attribute immediately reached Perfection. Now, seeing these Five Elements Spirits, Wang Lin's heart stirred, but he immediately cast the thought aside. Although he didn't know if that woman was the Heavenly Prodigy of the Snow Domain Country that Zhou Wutai spoke of,
Even if she wasn't, this woman possessed cultivation above the Soul Transformation Middle Stage, far from someone he could contend with at this moment.
