Chapter 559: tiger roar, Old Man and Armor

Inside the valley at the very center of the Soul Refining Tribe, a place that belonged solely to Wang Lin, he was currently sitting cross-legged in the depths of the valley. Before him, Thirteen knelt on one knee, his eyes filled with excitement.

Wang Lin had returned to the Soul Refining Tribe for three days, and Thirteen had already been awakened by his Spell.

After waking up, the first thing Thirteen saw was Wang Lin, and the excitement in his heart immediately surged throughout his entire body. Wang Lin learned a brief account of what had happened over the past year from Thirteen.

When talking about tiger roar, Wang Lin sighed inwardly. tiger roar had gone missing within the black prison, a matter that was filled with many clues. He had once swept his Divine Sense across the Ancient Demon City, but with his cultivation at the Late Stage Great Perfection of Nascent Soul Transformation, he had not found the slightest trace of tiger roar.

tiger roar practiced the Soul Refining technique he had imparted. By refining souls with this technique, the final control rested in Wang Lin's hands. However, at this moment, there was not the slightest trace of the souls refined by tiger roar within Wang Lin's Divine Sense.

"If this tiger roar is not dead, he must be in a strange place; otherwise, it would be impossible for me not to have detected him…" Wang Lin pondered for a moment, then stopped thinking about the matter of tiger roar. He had already done his best.

He looked up at Thirteen. One of the main reasons he had taken tiger roar and Thirteen to the Ancient Demon City back then was to test them.

If the two of them passed the test, Wang Lin would impart new Divine Abilities. For example, for tiger roar, Soul Refining was not everything; there was also the Soul Extraction Technique!

It was just that this Soul Extraction Technique was much more advanced than Soul Refining. Although it had been modified by Wang Lin, he would not easily impart it to others.

As for Thirteen, the thought of imparting the Ancient God Art to him had only flashed through his mind before being immediately rejected. The Ancient God Art must never be imparted to outsiders!

However, over the past year, Thirteen had excellently completed Wang Lin's test. Wang Lin could feel that this person would be loyal to him, at least for several decades.

When Wang Lin was on the Vermilion Bird Star, he had dealt with the Giant Demon Race many times. When he killed the Giant Demon Race Old Ancestor, he had obtained his Storage Pouch. Inside the Giant Demon Race Old Ancestor's Storage Pouch, besides a small bottle containing a trace of Ancient God blood and a trace of the Primordial Spirit Wheel from the Lust Dao, there were also some Jade Slips.

Among these Jade Slips, one recorded a set of Cultivation Technique Divine Abilities called the Nine cultivations of the Giant Spirit. Back then, Wang Lin had only glanced at it hurriedly and hadn't paid it any mind. At this moment, looking at Thirteen, he touched his Storage Pouch with his right hand, and a cyan Jade Slip immediately appeared in his hand.

"This is it!" Wang Lin swept his Divine Sense across it. The Nine cultivations of the Giant Spirit had nine levels in total and cultivated the art of Body Refining. After memorizing the Incantation for all nine levels, Wang Lin erased the last three levels, left only the first six, and threw it to Thirteen!

Thirteen excitedly took the Jade Slip. His gratitude toward Wang Lin in his heart could not be described in words. He knelt on the ground, kowtowed heavily several times, and said in a deep voice: "Old Ancestor, in this life, Thirteen will only obey your commands!"

"Guard the Soul Refining Tribe well. Go!" Wang Lin waved his right hand, and a gentle breeze blew over, lifting Thirteen's body and sending him outside the valley.

Wang Lin sat alone cross-legged in the valley. Above the sky, black mist rolled. This black mist was transformed from the Soul Banner; using this item to nourish souls yielded the best results.

"When I was in the Ancient Demon City, I could safely leave the Soul Banner here to nourish the souls. But I am going to the capital of the Heaven Demon Prefecture in three months; the distance is too far, and this banner cannot be left here!" Wang Lin looked up at the black mist in the sky, closed his eyes, and began to meditate and breathe.

At this moment, far away, countless li to the west of the Soul Refining valley, having even crossed more than half of the Heaven Demon Prefecture, there was a desert that stretched as far as the eye could see.

This place was notoriously famous within the Demon Spirit Land!

Legend had it that countless years ago, this place was an ancient battlefield within the Demon Spirit Land. Within a radius of millions of li, broken remains were scattered everywhere, and the ground was a dark red. Looking at it, a powerful sense of oppression would immediately surge into one's heart.

Outside this ancient battlefield, there was an invisible Restriction that shrouded the heavens and earth. Under this Restriction, this place was completely severed from the outside world!

At this moment, inside this ancient battlefield, a young man was sitting cross-legged. Before him, hundreds of small black flags were circling. These small flags moved without wind, and one by one, souls flew out from within them, circling all around.

A black mist circled outside his body. This mist was not thick, but its appearance caused a large number of heroic souls that had been sleeping for countless years within this ancient battlefield to gradually awaken.

Every time a soul awakened, a violent black Qi would rush out from the ground, merge into the black mist, hover for a few turns, and then drill into a small flag.

A hundred zhang away from the youth stood an old man wearing a black robe. This person looked coldly at the youth. After the time it takes to burn an incense stick, he said indifferently: "Enough, stop!"

Upon hearing this, the youth immediately performed Hand Seals with both hands. The small flags immediately flashed with black light and all landed in his hands. At this moment, the youth opened his eyes!

The moment he saw the old man, he immediately stood up and respectfully said: "tiger roar greets Benefactor!"

The old man nodded and said: "Very good. In time, if you refine all the souls in this ancient battlefield, with the power of your Soul Banner Divine Ability, you will be able to go anywhere in the Demon Spirit Land!"

tiger roar had an excited expression and said: "All of this is bestowed by Benefactor. You saved my life, imparted me Divine Abilities, and brought me here to refine souls. tiger roar will keep all of this in mind!"

The old man's expression remained cold as he said: "If it weren't for your strange Cultivation Technique, which I have never seen in my life, I would not have saved you. Furthermore, your previous master reappeared in the Ancient Demon City, fought a Demon General, and saved Thirteen, but I was one step too late!"

tiger roar's eyes revealed a complex expression as he said: "If I refine all the souls here, the first thing I will do is go and kill this Wang Lin!"

The old man looked at tiger roar and said: "He did, after all, impart the Divine Ability of Soul Refining to you. Why are you so insistent on killing this person?"

tiger roar was silent. A moment later, he sneered: "Although this person imparted me Divine Abilities, his motives were malicious. If it weren't for him, how would I have been implicated by that Sima Yan and thrown into the black prison!

During those few months in the black prison, I initially still hoped that Wang Lin would appear and rescue me. But this expectation was worn away by the unbearable life in the black prison. When I was being tortured by others, where was he? When I was being abused by others, where was he?

In the end, my expectations of him were all transformed into hatred. If it weren't for him, how could I have become like this… Fortunately, Benefactor saved me. The moment I walked out of the black prison, I swore that I would never be a slave to anyone again!"

The old man's cold face gradually revealed a hint of a smile as he said: "Good. To have such a decisive thought, you are worthy of being someone I have taken a liking to!" After the old man finished speaking, he turned around and took a step forward. His entire body turned into a trail of black smoke and disappeared from the spot.

tiger roar clenched his fists, looked into the distance, and muttered to himself: "Thirteen is simple-minded and was bewitched by that Wang Lin. During those months in the black prison, I suddenly realized that this Wang Lin simply treated me and Thirteen as abandoned pieces! Wang Lin, when one day I unleash my Soul Banner and release tens of millions of souls, I would like to see what kind of expression you will have and how you will resist my tens of millions of souls!

As for the World-Extinguishing Pressure Origin Technique that Benefactor imparted to me, as long as I Cultivate it to the fourth level, I will possess boundless Demonic Power. Wang Lin, Sima Yan, just you wait!"

tiger roar's eyes revealed thick killing intent!

Deep within this ancient battlefield, there was a jet-black tower. This tower was about several tens of zhang high. Around the perimeter of this tower, waves of black halos scattered outwards. As these halos spread, it seemed as if they could absorb all the light in the heavens and earth. Looking from afar, it was naturally shrouded in an eerie majesty.

The figure of the black-robed old man appeared outside the black tower. He took a deep breath, his body flickered, and he stepped into the tower. On the very top floor of this tower, he knelt down on both knees.

Before him was a set of Armor! This Armor was extremely ancient and did not look like an object from modern times. If an expert were here right now, they would definitely be able to recognize at a glance that this Armor had an extraordinary origin!

It was perfectly preserved, jet-black throughout, and carved with countless patterns. These patterns were clouds.

These clouds were all black at this moment, giving people an eerie feeling.

This Armor was assembled together, and looking from afar, it was as if someone was wearing the Armor and sitting cross-legged, giving people an irresistible sense of majesty. Waves of strange Qi radiated from this Armor, permeating the entire tower.

Inside the helmet of this Armor, two faint gleams suddenly flashed, appearing like a gaze, and landed on the old man. The moment this faint light lit up, the heavens and earth outside this tower immediately trembled, as if an immortal spirit had descended.

The old man took a deep breath and respectfully said: "Subordinate has already investigated and confirmed that the Demon Emperor Tian Xie in the Heaven Demon Prefecture should have broken through the final step a thousand years ago, but has been forcibly lingering!"

The faint light inside the Armor flashed, and an invisible chill seemed to radiate from within that faint light. The old man's body and mind trembled, and cold sweat broke out.

After a long time, the faint light landed in the old man's eyes, as if it were transmitting information. After a few breaths, the faint light gradually dissipated, and the Armor returned to its original appearance; the strange aura that had shrouded it vanished.

The old man was drenched in sweat from head to toe and said in a low voice: "Yes!" After speaking, he stood up and respectfully left this top floor. On the first floor of this tower, the old man sat down cross-legged again. This time, he was visibly relaxed.

"As for this youth tiger roar, if he absorbs a large number of souls, with the strangeness of that Soul Refining technique, combined with my Cultivation Technique and Medicinal Pill, I can make his cultivation advance by leaps and bounds in a short time. When that time comes, I will let him Cultivate the Momentary Art passed down by Master, condensing all his Lifespan and potential to erupt within a single hour. In this way, he can become one of the Demon Guards!

This Soul Refining technique is extremely profound, but I always feel there are some flaws in it. Unfortunately, Master has not been awake for long, and I cannot trouble Master with such trivial matters…

If it weren't for this person knowing this Soul Refining technique, with his Aptitude and status, it would not be enough for me to take a liking to him and Cultivate him into a Demon Guard! He will serve as an experiment for now. If it succeeds, then I will have to go and take a look at that Soul Refining Tribe!"
