Chapter 302: Battle

"Zeng Niu, like you and me, is also from Vermilion Bird Star," Chi Hu said.

"From Vermilion Bird Star?" Hong Die was startled, her mind quickly reviewing the other four people.

Just then, the Formation in front of the two suddenly flashed brightly again. After the light reached its peak, a tall figure appeared from within the Teleportation Formation.

"It's him!" Hong Die's eyes flashed. Without a word, she suddenly pointed her right hand forward, and a white Spirit Art, as fast as lightning, quickly pressed towards the Teleportation Formation!

"Bang" "Bang" "Bang"

The Hand Seal was like a rushing thunder, the Art like a flash of lightning, accompanied by the sound of tearing air.

The figure that appeared in the Formation was precisely Wang Lin. As soon as he appeared, he immediately sensed danger. He stomped his foot, the earth cracked, the Formation collapsed, and Wang Lin transformed into a wisp of green smoke, retreating backward. At the same time, he flung the Beast-Taming Ring from his right wrist forward, bringing with it a piercing shriek. It transformed into a Thunder Frog, which instantly spat out a giant Thunderball, heading straight for the Hand Seal.

At the same time, Wang Lin shook his hand, and the Restriction Banner was in his grasp. Immediately, countless Restriction Qi roared out from within it, their sound traveling dozens of miles away. Wang Lin's eyes were sharp, and from within the Restriction Banner, he locked onto Hong Die.

"Go!"

With a single command, the Restriction Qi formed into ferocious evil Dragons, snarling and roaring, fearlessly charging forward.

Hong Die's expression turned slightly cold. She tapped her foot and flew backward. At the same time, she flipped her right hand, and an ice sculpture immediately appeared in her hand. This ice sculpture looked exactly like the human-headed, snake-bodied creature from back then, but its eyes were tightly shut. As soon as this sculpture appeared, blue light immediately emanated from its closed eyes, shooting forward, bringing with it a wisp of faint glow.

"Bang"

The white Hand Seal and the Thunderball collided, causing a powerful explosion of force. A wave of Qi, half a person's height, immediately rose from the ground and spread rapidly in all directions. At this moment, the blue faint glow from the ice sculpture's eyes arrived. The Thunderball was shaken by the faint glow, and immediately emitted a series of "crackling" sounds. Ice shards quickly appeared on its surface, spreading at an unimaginable speed.

In the blink of an eye, a Thunderball completely frozen in ice appeared in mid-air. Its exterior was a faint blue, its interior purplish-black, with faint lightning coiling around it, truly beautiful.

The blue light did not stop, continuing to spread backward. The Thunder Frog let out a miserable cry, puffing up its abdomen, wanting to spit out another Thunderball, but its body was illuminated by the blue light and immediately froze, maintaining its distended abdomen, but the Thunderball was stillborn.

Even the evil Dragons formed by the Restriction Qi were now halted by the blue light, showing signs of freezing.

This time, Hong Die used her most powerful Magic Treasure, aiming to kill Wang Lin in one fell swoop.

Wang Lin's attack had just been blocked. His eyes flashed, he pushed his body backward, and touched his right hand to his glabella. In the blink of an eye, countless black shadows rapidly rushed out from his glabella, transforming into Wandering Souls, howling around Wang Lin.

Wang Lin's body leaped upward, floating in mid-air. At this moment, he seemed like a demon god descended to the world, his eyes flashing with a strange light.

"Devour!"

With a single word, the tens of thousands of Wandering Souls around him immediately transformed into fierce ghosts, roaring and pouncing towards Hong Die, fearless of death. The aftershocks of the blue light had minimal effect on the Wandering Souls, as Wandering Souls themselves had a certain resistance to all Spells.

"Stop!" Chi Hu finally reacted at this moment, frowning and immediately shouting.

Hong Die's expression changed. She sneered and retreated further. The Wandering Souls pounced forward, strong fluctuations scattering, relentlessly pursuing her like marrow entering bone.

Wang Lin's eyes revealed a murderous intent. He shook the Restriction Banner in his hand again, and immediately dozens more Restriction Qi rushed out, intertwining to form a black long spear, which, under Wang Lin's指, stabbed towards Hong Die.

This long spear was like an illusion, as fast as lightning, roaring past after the Wandering Souls.

Hong Die retreated again!

She touched the ice sculpture with her right hand, and the ice sculpture immediately grew in the wind, instantly becoming taller than a person, standing in front of her. The woman let out a delicate shout, and the human-headed, snake-bodied beast on the ice sculpture's eyes seemed to come alive, eerily opening.

Immediately, ten thousand feet of blue light shot out from the ice sculpture. The Wandering Souls, pierced by the blue light, cried out miserably, and some Wandering Souls immediately dissipated between heaven and earth. Even they, who were originally fearless, actually felt a trace of fear, hovering and daring not to advance.

However, the black long spear formed by Wang Lin's Restriction Qi, like lightning, broke through the blue light and sped away.

Wang Lin's figure moved, immediately rushing forward, closely following the long spear, and shouted, "Hong Die! Your parents have no one to send them off in death, this is unfilial!"

The Wandering Souls, seeing Wang Lin personally advance, immediately stopped retreating and followed behind Wang Lin, like a black peacock spreading its tail, forming streaks of tails, further enhancing Wang Lin's Aura.

"For your own selfish desires, you slaughtered four sects, this is inhumane!"

The black long spear was unstoppable, breaking through layers of blue light, bringing with it fierce fluctuations. The surrounding space even showed countless tiny cracks. As these cracks spread, they even tore the nearby ground and rocks into fragments.

"You inexplicably attacked me with killing intent, this is unjust!"

The Restriction Qi frozen on the ground immediately broke out of the ice and quickly merged into the long spear. This spear became even more formidable!

At the same time, within the Restriction Banner in Wang Lin's hand, as Wang Lin continuously charged, streaks of Restriction Qi rapidly flew out, filling the long spear. The spear's color became even darker, and its momentum became even fiercer.

"Your Master is still alive, yet you sold yourself to the Vermilion Bird Country, this is disloyal!"

This spear strike, after the Restriction Banner reached Major Achievement, was its most formidable. It gathered all the Restriction Qi! Wang Lin descended from the sky, countless Wandering Souls seemed to cover the heavens and earth. His momentum was like a rainbow, and this spear strike, like the collapse of the heavens, immediately seized the opportune moment.

The ground was torn by tiny cracks, breaking everywhere. At this moment, he possessed the geographical advantage!

This formidable spear strike, formed by the collapse of the heavens and the tearing of the earth, would make even a Soul Transformation Middle Stage Cultivator bleed on the spot.

"You, an unfilial, inhumane, unjust, and disloyal person, what Dao do you cultivate!!! Your Dao Heart is unstable, how do you expect your cultivation to improve in the future!"

Chi Hu's body also involuntarily retreated a few steps, his eyes revealing a look of shock. He didn't expect that this Zeng Niu actually had such a terrifying move.

"Man and Magic Treasure as one!" Chi Hu was greatly astonished. His eyes suddenly lit up, revealing a hint of Battle Intent, but he quickly suppressed it. "This person must be a talented individual from the Zeng Family. If I don't use a powerful treasure from my family, I'm afraid I won't be able to escape this spear strike. However, this Hong Die is in the Soul Transformation Late Stage… This Zeng Niu is indeed a formidable individual, he actually knows that he must first destroy Hong Die's Dao Heart, not simple!"

Hong Die was, after all, too young. Compared to Wang Lin, an old monster who had lived for over four hundred years and seen through the ways of the world, her Heart-Nature was still quite lacking. Wang Lin's words struck Hong Die's heart. Her eyes flashed, and a look of anger rose on her face as she retreated again.

Wang Lin continuously advanced, while Hong Die continuously retreated. He took advantage of Hong Die's less abundant combat experience, pressing the attack without any mercy.

Hong Die's eyes revealed a strong murderous intent. As the favored daughter of the Snow Domain Country, she had never encountered such an embarrassing situation since birth. In the past, as long as her ice sculpture appeared, even Soul Transformation Late Stage Cultivators of the same Realm as her would flee in disarray.

Furthermore, the Vermilion Bird Country also paid considerable attention to her, which inevitably led to some arrogance.

Wang Lin's spear strike actually gave her a sense of shock. The power of this spear strike was not immense, but it contained a strange Magic Treasure Aura, and within this Aura, there was even a trace of the power of a Lightning Tribulation.

But she was, after all, a Soul Transformation Late Stage Cultivator. At this moment, her eyes flashed, and her hands quickly formed Hand Seals, suddenly pointing at her glabella. Immediately, she spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, and within this fresh blood, a red light flashed out.

As soon as this red light appeared, it immediately transformed into a vibrant, delicate rose.

The moment this flower appeared, the ice sculpture in front of Hong Die immediately melted, becoming a pool of blue liquid that surrounded the rose, like nutrients, making the rose even more vivid.

The long spear in front of Wang Lin sped forward, and with a bang, struck the rose. Immediately, a petal fell from the flower. In an instant, Wang Lin's expression changed slightly; his long spear had collapsed at that very moment.

Hong Die's face showed an unusual flush, but it disappeared in an instant.

Wang Lin sighed softly. Even with such a perfectly timed and advantageous strike, he couldn't kill this woman. The Soul Transformation Late Stage was indeed powerful.

The moment he retreated, an emotionless Concept instantly enveloped his entire body.

"You are the first person to force me to use my Lifebound Treasure. You can die in peace!" Hong Die stared at the retreating Wang Lin, gritting her teeth and speaking each word distinctly.

At the same time, she extended her slender hand and plucked a petal from the rose in front of her.

"Stop! Fellow Daoist Hong Die, Brother Zeng, you two were invited by me. If you continue to fight, don't blame me for being impolite!" Chi Hu shouted loudly, his body rising into the air.

"Fellow Daoist Chi Hu, this matter was not caused by me!" Wang Lin took a deep breath, fully resisting the emotionless Concept's encroachment, and said coldly.

Hong Die's expression was cold. She glanced at Chi Hu and said, "This has nothing to do with you. Stand down!"

Chi Hu's expression changed. He stared at Hong Die and laughed, "Fellow Daoist Hong Die, what if I insist on getting involved in this matter?"

Hong Die said nothing, and pushed the petal in her hand forward. The petal immediately floated slowly towards Wang Lin. At this moment, the ground suddenly trembled, and even the sky showed numerous cracks. Evidently, the power of this petal had reached the critical point that the Immortal Realm Fragment could withstand.

"Hong Die!" Chi Hu roared.

Wang Lin's eyes flashed. He patted his Storage Pouch, and another Restriction Banner immediately appeared in his hand. With a shake, the Restriction Banner detached from his hand and rose into the sky.

"Attract Tribulation!" Wang Lin softly uttered these two words. Unless absolutely necessary, Wang Lin truly did not wish to use this Restriction Banner to draw down a Heavenly Tribulation. If a Heavenly Tribulation descended, and the fragment collapsed, Wang Lin didn't know if he would still be lucky enough to escape.

The Restriction Banner rose into the sky, transforming into a black circular mist that descended from above, covering an area of ten miles.
