Chapter 603: The Second Seal

Wang Lin was silent. The longer he stayed in this Demon Spirit Land, the more bizarre it felt. First, the portrait of Huang Long, then the two identical Mo Fei, and that burly man who looked extremely similar to Ling Tianhou.

Wang Lin's gaze flickered, and he muttered to himself, "Heavenly Fate Child follows heavenly fate. Since he insisted on me entering here, I fear he has other motives… Furthermore, when I was at Tian Yun Star, Bai Wei once pointed out that the vast majority of Heavenly Fate Child's Disciples who have cultivated for over ten thousand years have disappeared. I just don't know if the disappearance of those Senior Brothers is related to this Demon Spirit Land."

Wang Lin touched his Storage Pouch, a cold glint flashing in his eyes. He thought to himself, "Regardless, as long as my own strength is sufficient, even if this place is strange, it cannot shake my Dao Heart!"

Wang Lin closed his eyes. His Primordial Spirit continued to carve deeper imprints onto the Loose Devil soul within his body, slowly solidifying the imprint into the depths of the Loose Devil soul.

Besides this, as the number of Soul Refining tribe members increased, more and more people continued to Cultivate the Soul Refining arts. Additionally, this place was an ancient battlefield containing countless souls. Although most were hidden deep underground, as the Soul Refining tribe migrated here, deep pits were gradually dug out. Cultivating underground became a unique way for the Soul Refining tribe to practice the Soul Refining arts.

This was only one method of practicing the Soul Refining arts. Another effective method was to go to the Fire Demon Prefecture to absorb the souls of the dead demon soldiers.

However, only those who had achieved some success in their cultivation were qualified to go. Every tribesman who went out alone to the Fire Demon Prefecture had to be personally assessed by Ouyang Hua to decide if they could go.

The entire Soul Refining tribe was growing at an extremely fast speed! This growth increased every day, like a young butterfly absorbing nutrients inside a cocoon, waiting for the day it could break out of the cocoon and shock the nine prefectures!

In the hearts of every tribesman, the high tower within the ten-mile empty space at the center was a supreme Holy Land, never to be defiled, like a god!

As for Wang Lin, who had not stepped out of the tower for ten years, he was the Old Ancestor in the hearts of all the tribesmen! He was their protector!

All day long, besides reinforcing the Loose Devil imprint, Wang Lin cast Restriction after Restriction, merging them into the Restriction Banner. The 9,999 sets of Restrictions had been continuously deduced by Wang Lin over these ten years, and he was slowly nearing completion.

The Soul Banner had long been dispersed by Wang Lin, its one hundred million souls transforming into a black cloud that shrouded the sky above the Soul Refining tribe. The sound of souls howling could be heard at all times, becoming a unique symbol within the Soul Refining tribe.

Wang Lin also spent a lot of thought and time studying the five Seals on the God-Slaying Chariot. When he was in the Middle Stage of Nascent Soul Transformation, he could barely open one Seal. Now that his cultivation had reached Soul Transformation, he could handle the first Seal with ease. But this obviously could not satisfy Wang Lin; he wanted the second Seal!

After the first Seal was opened, the God-Slaying Chariot could threaten Cultivators at the Late Stage of Nascent Soul Transformation and Great Perfection. As for the second Seal, Wang Lin merely swept it with his Divine Sense, and it immediately unleashed bolts of lightning. When he pursued it, it actually rushed out directly. Wang Lin had been prepared; with a movement of his Immortal energy, it took him several breaths to crush the lightning.

Through this lightning, Wang Lin judged that if the second Seal were removed, the power of the Soul Beast would be extremely strong! Moreover, he feared that what was sealed under the second Seal was the power of the Soul Beast's lightning!

One must know that this God-Slaying Chariot was an object from the Immortal Realm. The creator once said that this object was definitely a supreme weapon and named it God-Slaying. Although the tone was arrogant, given Wang Lin's understanding over the past few hundred years, even if he didn't fully believe it, he believed it by thirty percent.

The fact that this beast could possess lightning power made Wang Lin even more interested in the second Seal.

The power of the wind, rain, lightning, and electricity displayed by the old man at the Late Stage of Soul Transformation under the Demon Tower years ago still made Wang Lin's heart tremble whenever he recalled it. The most powerful part of that Divine Ability was that black lightning. If that lightning did not exist, its power would be reduced by more than half!

Regarding the second Seal, Wang Lin was confident he could open it. However, after analyzing the power of the lightning, he discovered that once the second Seal was opened, given the strength of the Soul Beast, the Beast-Taming Ring would definitely collapse!

The Beast-Taming Ring was a gift from the ancient Cultivators under Tuo Sen in the Ancient God Land to help Wang Lin. Over the past few hundred years, especially with the God-Slaying Chariot, this item had been of great help to Wang Lin, allowing him to use the God-Slaying Chariot even when his cultivation was insufficient!

But now, with the improvement of Wang Lin's cultivation and the successive unlocking of the God-Slaying Chariot's Seals, this item could no longer restrict the Soul Beast!

Wang Lin was silent for a moment, then slapped his Storage Pouch. The Beast-Taming Ring flew out and floated in front of Wang Lin. On this ancient copper ring, there were countless runes and carvings of ancient Vicious Beasts. There were also a few tiny cracks on it, left behind when the Soul Beast had backlashed before.

Looking at the Beast-Taming Ring, hesitation appeared in Wang Lin's eyes. Without the Restriction of this ring, he had to use his own strength to truly subdue the Soul Beast and carry out the complete Legacy according to the method left by the creator of this chariot. Otherwise, this treasure could no longer be used.

A resolute look appeared in Wang Lin's eyes. He grabbed the Beast-Taming Ring, stood up, and took a step forward. His entire person disappeared from the tower and reappeared ten thousand miles away from the Soul Refining tribe.

This place was a vast, empty plain. Wang Lin threw the Beast-Taming Ring in his hand and pointed forward with both hands forming Hand Seals. The ring immediately emitted black light, and with a bang, it transformed into the God-Slaying Chariot and landed on the ground.

As soon as the God-Slaying Chariot, full of ferocious spikes, appeared, it emitted a dazzling light. At the same time, the Soul Beast materialized, its hundred-zhang-large body comparable to a small mountain.

Its blood-red eyes stared fiercely at Wang Lin the moment it appeared, letting out an unyielding roar that shook the heavens and earth.

Amidst the roar, it lunged at Wang Lin as if a small mountain were crashing into him, with sounds of space tearing following in its wake. Wang Lin's expression remained normal. He raised his right hand and casually slapped forward.

This slap was like a giant hand descending from the sky, instantly landing on the Soul Beast, pinning its massive body firmly to the ground amidst a thunderous roar.

Dust flew up, spreading in a ring, and the entire ground seemed to shake.

The Soul Beast raised its head, struggle in its eyes, roaring violently, staring dead at Wang Lin, its unyielding intent soaring to the sky.

Wang Lin looked at the Soul Beast indifferently. Years ago, when facing this initial state of the Soul Beast, he could not contend with it at all. But now, he could suppress the beast and make it unable to break free.

Using his right hand to grasp the beast in the void, Wang Lin bit the tip of his tongue and drew in the air. A red blood rune slowly formed. This rune was left behind by the Immortal who created the God-Slaying Chariot. There were seven such runes in total; once all of them were placed, the God-Slaying Chariot would truly acknowledge its master!

However, two of these seven blood runes had to be imprinted after the fourth Seal was opened.

After the blood rune was drawn, Wang Lin flicked his left hand. The rune immediately turned into a bloody light and shot straight at the struggling Soul Beast on the ground, landing on its forehead.

The Soul Beast's body trembled suddenly, as if in extreme pain, and a crazy, giant roar erupted from its mouth. Its body struggled continuously.

Wang Lin's gaze flickered, and he loosened his right hand.

As soon as the beast gained freedom, it immediately glared at Wang Lin, letting out low roars, its unyielding look even more intense.

Wang Lin looked coldly at the Soul Beast, his hands forming Hand Seals, and black light flickered on the Hand Seals in his hands. He shouted, "First Seal, open!"

The black light flew out with the Hand Seals and landed directly on the Soul Beast. A series of clicking sounds immediately came from the beast's entire body, and a massive aura immediately surged from within it.

At this moment, the Soul Beast rose from the ground, its blood-red mouth opening wide as if it could swallow the world, biting down.

Wang Lin did not move his body. He raised his right hand again and swiped forward!

The violent wind turned into a palm and swung out abruptly. There was a bang as the Soul Beast's mouth shattered! Its body immediately retreated, and while retreating, its entire body turned into countless black rays of light, scattering in all directions, and then crazily rushed toward Wang Lin.

Wang Lin drew with both hands in the void simultaneously. Two blood runes appeared the moment the surrounding black rays approached.

At this moment, the black rays drilled into Wang Lin's skin in an instant. After rushing into his body, they headed straight for his Primordial Spirit. A cold smile appeared on the corner of Wang Lin's mouth, and a burst of sharp light exploded as his eyes opened and closed.

"Primordial Spirit, Soul Emergence!" Wang Lin shouted in a low voice, his eyes slightly closed. From his heavenly spirit, his Primordial Spirit immediately flew out. In the Primordial Spirit's hand, the Soul Beast was grabbed firmly by the neck and flew out with it.

Two blood runes immediately flew over, were grabbed by the Primordial Spirit's left hand, and were pressed onto the Soul Beast's forehead in quick succession.

The Soul Beast's body shook, and an even more powerful aura surged out crazily. This time, it actually shook off Wang Lin's Divine Sense.

Wang Lin's Divine Sense returned to his body, and he opened his eyes to look at the beast.

At this moment, countless miles away from where Wang Lin was, at a certain place on the border between the Fire Demon Prefecture and the Gold Demon Prefecture.

Here was a large mountain range, covered in miasma all year round. It belonged to an area that neither the Fire Demon nor the Gold Demon lands cared about.

Deep in the miasma, there was a white city—or to be precise, just a castle, surrounded by ten-zhang-high white mountain rocks. In the miasma, a mysterious feeling arose leisurely.

At this moment, a black shadow flew rapidly through the miasma. While in mid-air, the black shadow knelt on one knee and respectfully said, "Subordinate pays respects to the Old Ancestor. I have already found out the location of Wang Lin, who went missing in the capital of the Ancient Demon Prefecture twenty years ago!"

There was silence in the castle for a moment, then a sinister voice came out: "What is his cultivation now?"

The black shadow hesitated for a moment and said, "This… the subordinate has not found out, because the squad that captured this person in the Tianyao Prefecture was completely wiped out, and no news came back. However, the subordinate learned that this person has now been appointed as the Ancient Demon Envoy."

"Ancient Demon Envoy… Haha, the person I have taken a fancy to is indeed extraordinary. Send three squads… and bring an Immortal Guard to go there and capture this person alive for me!"

The black shadow quickly agreed, and his body flashed and disappeared.

Inside the castle, an extremely short old man muttered to himself: "If this Wang Lin is well-trained, he can add another Immortal Guard for me! No matter how high his cultivation is, as long as he hasn't reached Soul Transformation, that Immortal Guard is enough to capture him!"
