Chapter 659: Famous Throughout Luotian, Hearing the Wind and Rain, Soul Recalls Liu Mei
The Finger of Annihilation transformed into a dark long rainbow, breaking through the Void Realm. Ripples suddenly appeared around it, and even electric currents swam within these ripples, emitting crackling sounds.
The sound reverberated, constantly expanding and turning into rumbling thunder, descending between heaven and earth. Not to mention, within the Finger of Annihilation of the dark long rainbow, thunderous might encircled it, resembling a Lightning Tribulation of heavenly wrath.
With a single finger, the light outside Huan Dong's body, without any power to resist, immediately disintegrated. His complexion instantly turned pale, and his body rapidly retreated. The power of this finger was too strong, so strong that even with his cultivation, he felt a tremor in his heart.
But the black Sword Light of the finger wind was like a black Dragon, roaring as it shot out with electric light, directly pouncing towards the retreating Huan Dong.
Huan Dong patted his Storage Pouch, and a golden sword immediately flew out. At the same time, he formed Hand Seals with his right hand, pressing it onto the golden sword, and shouted, "Might of Metal!"
The golden sword whistled, rushing straight towards the black Sword Light of the finger wind.
An earth-shattering sound of collapse suddenly erupted. The golden sword, under the impact of the Finger of Annihilation's wind, emitted banging sounds, then shattered inch by inch, finally dissipating. The black Sword Light of the finger wind, like lightning, broke through all Void Realm and landed in front of Huan Dong. In this critical moment, Huan Dong clasped his hands together, pointed forward, and collided with the black Sword Light of the finger wind.
With a thunderous roar, Huan Dong's body trembled, and a mouthful of fresh blood spurted out. His entire being rapidly retreated like a meteor, and electric lights flickered on his body. Each flicker worsened his injuries. This electric light even mysteriously split off a part to encircle his Primordial Spirit within his body, causing his Primordial Spirit to emit extremely painful struggles.
His face was devoid of color, and his eyes revealed horror.
"What kind of lightning is this?! What is this person's cultivation? It's too terrifying! Just one Divine Ability can severely injure me. This person is definitely not from Ranyun Star. I cannot fight, I must leave quickly and report this matter to Young Miss!" Huan Dong clapped his hands on his thighs, and white light immediately flickered on his legs. His speed increased even further, and even half of his body had rapidly retreated and merged into the Void Realm, about to teleport away.
When Wang Lin's cultivation was at the Early Stage of Soul Transformation, his Divine Abilities and Spells were already superior to those at the Middle Stage of Soul Transformation. Except for the fact that the Late Stage of Soul Transformation had too great a gap from the preceding few Realms to be overcome, he could fight those at the Middle Stage of Soul Transformation.
Now, although his cultivation was still at the Early Stage of Soul Transformation, the immortal Qi within his body had already infinitely approached the Middle Stage of Soul Transformation. He only needed Concept comprehension to Break through in one fell swoop.
Thus, killing this Huan Dong was as easy as flipping his palm!
As the opponent tried to escape, the coldness in Wang Lin's eyes intensified. Taking people's money meant resolving their troubles. Sometimes, in this world, it was hard to distinguish right from wrong.
Lightly patting his Storage Pouch, the Seven Star Sword Formation flickered out, transforming into seven long rainbows breaking through the Void Realm. The Seven Star Sword Formation was created by Sword Venerable Ling Tianhou; how could ordinary mortals resist it? In a flash, the seven swords directly pursued. The moment Huan Dong's body completely merged into the Void Realm, they arrived beside him. The evil souls of the twelve zodiac animals on the seven swords immediately materialized, merging with each other. As they roared towards the sky, gigantic beast claws fiercely grabbed at the Void Realm.
A crisp sound, like a mirror shattering, was emitted. Huan Dong, with horror in his eyes from within the Void Realm, was actually forcefully torn out of the Void Realm and grabbed. At the same time, the Seven Star Sword Formation lined up around him. Sword Light whistled from the sword tips, pressing tightly against Huan Dong's body. If the opponent made even the slightest move, it would immediately pierce through his body and annihilate his spirit.
From Huan Dong's appearance until he was captured, this scene unfolded extremely quickly, in just a few breaths.
The Ran Family Old Ancestor gasped. Although he had long known that Wang Lin's Divine Abilities were formidable, and had personally experienced them back then, seeing it from a third-person perspective now was different.
His eyes revealed a look of dread. When Wang Lin had attacked him, he had nearly died from just a flickering black shadow. Now, he saw that this person's Divine Abilities were by no means limited to just that black shadow; any Spell he casually cast was extremely astonishing.
He completely made up his mind: in this life, he would never be an enemy of this Xu Mu!
The shock in Carefree Scholar's heart was no less than that of the Ran Family Old Ancestor; in fact, it was greater. He stared at the Seven Star Sword Formation, taking a deep breath. At this moment, he had no doubt in his heart that if this Xu Mu wanted to kill him, he would surely not survive.
"This person's cultivation, I fear, has reached the Great Perfection of the Late Stage of Soul Transformation!"
Relatively speaking, Sun Xi was calmer. He had already elevated Wang Lin's cultivation to an extremely high level in his heart. At this moment, he felt a hint of joy, secretly thinking, "The stronger this Xu Mu is, the more I must befriend him."
Huan Dong's scalp tingled. The Sword Light of the seven treasured swords around his body was like a blade of death hanging over his head, ready to fall at any moment. He stared at Wang Lin, and also saw the three of the Ran Family Old Ancestor, and shouted with restrained emotion, "Ran Xuefeng, Sun Xi, Zhao Chuanwen, are you three courting death?!"
The three remained silent, not speaking, but a cold glint flashed in their eyes.
Seeing this cold glint, Huan Dong inwardly cried out that something was wrong. He shouted, "I, Huan, came here by order of my Family. Even if you kill me, other members of the Huan Family will still come here. Can you kill them all? With your strength, confronting my Huan Family will surely lead to death!
Release me, and I, Huan, will seek justice for you in all matters!"
Although Huan Dong's words were directed at the Ran Family Old Ancestor and the other two, his gaze occasionally swept towards Wang Lin. Clearly, the level of dread he felt for the person who had captured him had reached a certain height, and at the same time, he was inwardly guessing what this person's background was.
The Ran Family Old Ancestor heard these words, and a trace of hesitation appeared in his eyes, but immediately, this hesitation was replaced by resolve. He said calmly, "Fellow Daoist Huan, may I ask why you have come to my Ranyun Star?"
Huan Dong stared intently at the Ran Family Old Ancestor, then swept his gaze over the other two, and sneered, "So, the people from my Huan Family four years ago were indeed killed by you! Ran Xuefeng, Sun Xi, Zhao Chuanwen, the Bloodline of your three Families has reached its end!"
A gloomy look flashed in the Ran Family Old Ancestor's eyes. He turned and cupped his fists towards Wang Lin, saying, "Fellow Daoist Xu, how about leaving this person to us?"
Wang Lin's expression was normal, and he nodded.
"Surname Xu?! Who exactly are you? Why do you want to get involved in my Huan Family's affairs!" Huan Dong suddenly looked at Wang Lin, and he shouted, "Fellow Daoist Xu, my Huan Family Old Ancestor has returned! Do you think you can contend with my Huan Family Old Ancestor? If you let me go, I, Huan Dong, guarantee not to mention you in front of Young Miss, and this matter will absolutely not involve you!"
"Huan Family Young Miss?" Wang Lin glanced at Huan Dong.
"Fellow Daoist Xu, you may not know, but when the Huan Family Old Ancestor returned, he brought back a woman from the Alliance Star Domain and adopted her as his goddaughter. In a few days, he will perform the Great Bloodline Exchange Technique to change her Bloodline," Sun Xi explained from the side.
Wang Lin's gaze sharpened, and he said, "Huan Family Old Ancestor, what is his cultivation?"
Huan Dong inwardly breathed a sigh of relief and said, "The Old Ancestor's cultivation has entered the second step of cultivation. Thousands of years ago, he was already at the Yin and Yang Void Reality Realm!"
Wang Lin looked at the three of the Ran Family Old Ancestor with a half-smile, his gaze, in their opinion, slightly sarcastic. Especially the Ran Family Old Ancestor, who lowered his head even further.
"This person is handed over to you; it has nothing to do with me, Xu." Wang Lin said indifferently. Then, with a wave of his right hand, the Seven Star Sword emitted Sword Light that moved within Huan Dong's body, sealing his Primordial Spirit. Then, like lightning, it flew back to Wang Lin's side.
"I, Xu, have other important matters. I will return in a few months!" Turning around, Wang Lin stepped away.
Huan Dong's eyes revealed despair, and he shrieked, "If you kill me, Young Miss will not let you go! Young Miss Huan Mei is the Old Ancestor's only Disciple, and will be the future Family Head of my Huan Family!"
Wang Lin's departing footsteps paused. He slowly turned around, staring at Huan Dong, and said calmly, "Huan Mei? What was this person's original name?"
Huan Dong sneered and said, "If you let me go, I'll tell you…"
Before he could finish, Wang Lin frowned, and with a grab into the Void Realm with his large hand, Huan Dong's body immediately flew up and landed under Wang Lin's palm. His hand pressed on Huan Dong's heavenly spirit, and a trace of electric light flashed in his eyes. The shadow behind him immediately extended along his arm, spreading over Huan Dong's entire body.
"Soul Searching Technique!"
Huan Dong's cultivation was, after all, at the Middle Stage of Soul Transformation. To perform Soul Searching, he had to borrow the power of the Immortal Guard.
Huan Dong's memories, like fragments, were viewed one by one by Wang Lin as he swept through them with the Immortal Guard's Divine Sense. As he looked, Huan Dong's body trembled violently, his eyes bulged, revealing painful struggles.
As he continued to look, Wang Lin suddenly fixed his gaze on an exceptionally beautiful woman in Huan Dong's memory. Wang Lin's expression gradually darkened. A moment later, he released his hand, and with a slap, Huan Dong's Physical Body disintegrated into flesh and blood. His Primordial Spirit was seized by Wang Lin and thrown into the Venerable Soul Banner within his Storage Pouch.
This sudden scene caused the three of the Ran Family Old Ancestor to be stunned, each harboring different thoughts.
"Liu Mei…" Wang Lin frowned. Scene after scene from Vermilion Bird Star passed before his eyes, including the events within the Vermilion Bird Tomb, which also appeared in Wang Lin's memory.
"This woman actually obtained a great fortune and came to this Luotian Star Domain…" Wang Lin fell silent. After a long time, he looked up at the sky, said nothing, and stepped away.
The three of the Ran Family Old Ancestor no longer dared to stop him, watching helplessly as Wang Lin's figure gradually disappeared.
After exiting the fierce wind layer, Wang Lin patted his Storage Pouch, and the Star Compass flew out, carrying him as it transformed into a silver Dragon and vanished into the starry sky.
Upon the silver Dragon, Wang Lin sat cross-legged, muttering to himself, "This woman, Liu Mei, and I have no deep hatred. If she is sensible, then so be it. If she continues to be as unreasonable and troublesome as she was on Vermilion Bird Star, then I might have no choice but to kill her. As for that Huan Family Old Ancestor, I have no need to fight him to the death. If he appears, with the Immortal Guard in hand, at worst I'll just leave! Moreover, I am alone, while he is an entire Family. I might not be able to defeat him, but I can kill a few of his clansmen as repayment."
Having made up his mind, Wang Lin no longer pondered matters concerning Liu Mei, but instead headed straight for Yunxia Star according to the Star Map in his mind.
"The Golden Flame Ore Vein on Yunxia Star is extremely important to me; it is the opportunity for the Heaven Defying Bead to reach Perfection. This matter absolutely cannot be obstructed by anyone. Whoever competes with me, I will kill them!" Wang Lin's eyes revealed a cold glint as he whistled through the starry sky.
Wang Lin traveled non-stop, rushing at full speed. Following the Star Map, a month later, Yunxia Star appeared in his Divine Sense from afar.
