Chapter 871: Alliance Secrets, Reggie

At this moment, the entire Corpse Yin Sect headquarters was silent; this silence was somewhat terrifying. Only the soft sound of footsteps landing slowly echoed, causing this place to be enveloped in a thick, gloomy atmosphere.

Wang Lin walked forward on the ground, passing through various limestone caves. His expression was normal, without the slightest ripple. Following the route in his memory, he gradually arrived at the depths of the Corpse Yin Sect.

Looking at the sealed wall in front, on the surface, no clues could be seen. Wang Lin remembered that there used to be a cave entrance here, and inside was the place where he had once meditated to Cultivate the Yellow Springs Ascension Technique.

Without stopping, Wang Lin walked towards the wall. As soon as his body approached, cracks immediately appeared on the wall ahead. The moment Wang Lin walked near, the cracks spread, and the wall collapsed as if an eerie force was constantly pushing forward. With resounding thumping sounds, it was as if no barrier could block Wang Lin's path. As he moved forward, the stone walls ahead collapsed layer by layer, automatically opening a passage.

This eerie scene, if seen by any Cultivator, would definitely cause their mind to shake violently. Even a Cultivator of Yin and Yang, while capable of doing this, would find it somewhat difficult.

Only those who have truly stepped into the second step and reached the level of a great Divine Ability Cultivator of Nirvana Scrutiny, touching the edge of the rules, could do this so easily.

Continuing forward, Wang Lin arrived at the place where he had meditated. Looking around, his expression was somewhat melancholic. After a moment of silence, Wang Lin walked forward. On the wall in front of him, countless small holes emitted bursts of cold air, though this cold air was much weaker than it had been back then.

As he moved forward, the walls collapsed one after another. Wang Lin did not stop at all, consistently walking. Not long after, he arrived at the deepest part of the Corpse Yin Sect. Here, it was a vast underground limestone cave.

A coffin, hundreds of feet in size, floated silently in the middle of the cave.

"Save me…" A weak voice echoed suddenly the moment Wang Lin stepped in here.

Wang Lin was familiar with this voice.

However, the moment this voice sounded, it stopped abruptly. After a long time, the voice echoed again, but this time, it carried a trace of shock.

"You… You are that Cultivator from back then!!" The voice revealed incredible horror.

Wang Lin's expression remained normal as he walked close to the huge coffin. Looking at it, this coffin seemed ordinary, but in reality, it was filled with countless Restrictions. These Restrictions were not simple; layered upon each other, they emitted powerful pressure.

Back then, Wang Lin's cultivation was only at the Foundation Establishment Stage. He only felt his mind shake when approaching here, but he did not understand where the problem lay. Now, however, Wang Lin's cultivation was enough for him to see that all of this stemmed from the Formation and Restrictions on the coffin.

"Impossible, in a few hundred years, how could you possess this level of cultivation? This… this…" The voice, weak, transmitted deep shock. Clearly, he recognized Wang Lin, and because he recognized him, he was so shocked!

He clearly remembered that this Cultivator before him had been here twice. The first time, he was only at the Foundation Establishment Stage, and he hadn't paid any attention to him; with Foundation Establishment cultivation, it was impossible for him to be of any help.

Hundreds of years later, this Cultivator came a second time. At that time, he already had cultivation approaching the Nascent Soul Transformation stage. After arriving here, he was there to take his blood. When he begged for help, this little Cultivator ignored him completely. To stall for time, he even offered the temptation of being willing to become the little Cultivator's mount, but in the end, because the little Cultivator was too cautious, the escape failed.

He had been secretly angry about this, but he had no way to change it. Now, however, this Cultivator had come a third time, which made his mind shake violently and he was greatly alarmed.

He could not see through the other party's cultivation!

Not to mention this person, even the two Cultivators behind him, who clearly looked like servants, he could not see through either. He only felt that on these three people, there was an aura that made his mind shake.

Wang Lin's expression was calm. He looked carefully at the coffin, raised his right hand, and pointed casually forward. His fingertip landed on the coffin, and a loud boom suddenly echoed. Cracks immediately spread crazily from where Wang Lin's fingertip landed, and in almost an instant, they filled the entire coffin.

This scene was very easy for Wang Lin, but in the Divine Sense of the Giant Demon Race Old Ancestor, it was terrifying.

The moment Wang Lin lifted his fingertip, the hundreds-of-feet-large coffin immediately collapsed and scattered in all directions. A large amount of white mist dispersed from within, filling the surroundings.

Within the white mist, a huge, naked male corpse floated in mid-air. The skin on his body was iron-blue. It did not have the rough cracks like an Ancient God; his skin was as smooth as a mirror.

On the corpse grew a kind of purplish-green plant. These plants were wriggling at every moment. As they wriggled, the giant's body noticeably withered, but then immediately returned to normal. In this cycle, repeating over and over, white, cold, yin mist quickly dispersed from those plants.

At the center of the giant's forehead, there was also a faint axe mark, flickering from time to time.

"Save me… Senior, save me… I, Reggie, am willing to become Senior's mount, please help me, Senior." The giant's Divine Thought transmitted weakly immediately. There was no longer the conspiracy of the last time, but instead, it was filled with pleading.

Wang Lin glanced at the purplish-green things wrapped around Reggie. He knew that the roots of these things had already grown into this person's body. As time passed, he feared that in another few hundred years, this person would have all his vitality completely sucked away and become a corpse.

"How many of your Giant Demon Race clansmen have been captured by the Corpse Yin Sect?" Wang Lin said calmly.

"Senior, on this Vermilion Bird Star, there is only me. But in the Alliance Star Domain, I know that among the generations of the Giant Demon Race, a large portion have been captured by the Corpse Yin Sect. They, the Corpse Yin Sect, value the Physical Body of my Giant Demon Race. But if my Giant Demon Race's Physical Body is possessed normally, the innate Divine Ability will dissipate. The Corpse Yin Sect's goal is to perform Possession while retaining the innate Divine Ability."

"The purplish-green vine on me is a kind of strange plant found by the Corpse Yin Sect. It can drain my vitality, but it won't affect the innate Divine Ability. In this way, they can perform perfect Possession." If Wang Lin's cultivation were not what it is now, Reggie would definitely not have spoken the truth so readily, but now, he stated it without hesitation.

In the Cultivation World, strength determines everything!

Wang Lin's eyes flashed as he looked at Reggie. He grabbed casually with his right hand, and immediately, Reggie's body shook violently. Those purplish-green vines on his body suddenly wriggled violently.

Almost instantly, one vine after another was pulled out. As they wriggled, they shrank rapidly. A powerful pressure suddenly filled the surroundings. Wang Lin frowned as he looked at the purplish-green vines.

As these vines shrank, they emitted shrill screeches. As one vine after another was pulled out, in a moment, a plant, dozens of feet in size and extremely hideous, appeared in mid-air.

This plant had flowers at its head, but at this moment, as the flowers opened, rows of sharp thorns actually appeared inside, and a large amount of mucus flowed down. Each vine was like a tentacle of this plant, extending outwards. Some were connected to Reggie, while others swayed, and at the tips, they also split open, revealing sharp thorns inside as they opened.

A sharp roar echoed, turning into a storm, rushing crazily towards Wang Lin. Wang Lin's expression was cold. Inside this strange plant, there was also Divine Sense. This thing was definitely not as simple as a plant.

"Senior, inside this purplish-green vine, there is the Divine Sense of a Deputy Hall Master of the Corpse Yin Sect. My Physical Body was prepared for this Deputy Hall Master. If Senior hadn't come, I fear that in another few hundred years, while all my vitality was being absorbed, he would have been able to occupy my Physical Body without any obstruction…" Reggie's Divine Thought was even weaker, but he still said it while struggling.

Hearing this, it was as if a lightning bolt struck Wang Lin's mind, and he had an epiphany.

"The Corpse Yin Sect has always focused on selling Physical Bodies. In this world, the best Physical Body is naturally an Ancient God! But right now, Ancient God Physical Bodies are too rare, so the Corpse Yin Sect settled for the next best thing and set their targets on the Giant Demon Race. Possessing such a Physical Body, combined with a Cultivator's Divine Ability, such combat power is definitely not something an ordinary Cultivator can resist. One can imagine, if a Nirvana Scrutiny Cultivator possessed a Physical Body of this strength, with intact Divine Abilities, and also innate Divine Abilities, even I would not have absolute certainty in fighting him, unless I perform Body Integration with my main body!"

Wang Lin's face darkened. There were too many secrets in the Corpse Yin Sect. He did not know if this matter of possessing a Giant Demon Race Physical Body was considered a priority within the Corpse Yin Sect.

Regardless, through this matter, the mysterious veil of the Corpse Yin Sect had finally been lifted a little by Wang Lin. With the approach of the Luotian Cultivator army, Wang Lin believed that eventually, all the secrets of the Corpse Yin Sect would be revealed.

Amidst the sharp roars, that demonic plant rushed over. One tentacle after another crazily wrapped around Wang Lin, attempting to tear him to shreds. Wang Lin sneered. He opened his mouth and exhaled, and the Immortal Sealing Seal immediately manifested and magnified instantly. Golden light flickered within it, and hundreds of thousands of golden runes flew out, sealing towards the plant.

The Immortal Sealing Seal smashed down with a rumbling sound, bringing up a storm, heading straight for the plant.

Wang Lin even raised his right hand, his eyes filled with lightning intent. Immediately, bolts of lightning appeared from the void, condensing toward Wang Lin's right hand. Controlling the lightning of heaven and earth, making all lightning his own, lightning flashed. On Wang Lin's right hand, a purple Lightning Orb appeared.

With a forward push, this Lightning Orb immediately flew out, heading straight for the plant.

At this moment, countless golden runes filled the entire body of the huge plant. As the Immortal Sealing Seal fell instantly, a loud boom was heard. This loud sound was earth-shattering. The surrounding limestone cave appeared with large cracks in this vibration, and countless stones fell, kicking up a large amount of dust.

The moment the Immortal Sealing Seal fell, the Lightning Orb approached directly. The rumbling sound echoed again, and bursts of angry roars were crazily transmitted from within the plant.

The plant was damaged in many places on its body. As lightning roamed, countless mucus splattered. Reggie, below it, was thrown away by this plant and landed on the ground with a bang.

"Who is it that woke me from my slumber? You will pay the price with your life!" A gloomy voice slowly transmitted from within the plant.
