Chapter 187. The Ancient God’s Inheritance (part 1) (1/2)
It was silent. The technique had been verified, but it was not necessary to leave this place yet. First, Wang Lin wanted to see if was possible to enter the Heaven Revolting space.
If he could enter the Heaven Revolting space, then his chance of escape would increase a lot. He moved his hand from his brow. His expression was calm, but there was hint of surprise in his eyes.
There were no restrictions in the Heaven Revolting space. It could be entered at any time.
Wang Lin let out a breath of relief. He waved his right hand and took out Ancient Emperor’s bag of holding. With a scan of his divine sense, a resisting force came from the bag.
The bag of holding’s divine sense blocked out Wang Lin’s divine sense. This meant that Ancient Emperor was still alive, but Wang Lin wasn’t sure about the situation himself. Back then, Hunchback Meng’s bag of holding had lost its divine sense, but Hunchback Meng still seemed to be alive.
Now Wang Lin had two bag of holdings he couldn’t open. One of them was Ancient Emperor’s, and the other was the one he found in a cave at the Shinto War Shrine from a mysterious skeleton.
Both bags of holding still held the divine sense of the previous master. With that there, Wang Lin couldn’t access the bags. Wang Lin wasn’t in a rush, he touch the bag of holding and surrounded it with his own divine sense to prevent Ancient Emperor from sensing it.
After he finished this, he took a deep breath and darted like an arrow into the distance. His target was the Ancient God’s Sea of Knowledge.
He did, after all, received a piece of jade to make a restriction flag, and the material required to make it was within the Sea of Knowledge.
After running quickly through this space that had no difference between earth and sky, Wang Lin still couldn’t see the edge of the sky.
He remembered that Duanmu and the others had said that the body of an Ancient God was very large. A mature Ancient God was larger than the entire Suzaku star. Even just traveling between two blood vessels, the distance was unimaginable.
Although the area was large, there was no life or any restrictions, just silence. Wang Lin didn’t make any stops and continued forward.
In the Ancient God’s body, there weren’t any restrictions on one’s divine sense, just like the outside world. Wang Lin’s soul received a lot of nourishment in the third realm, especially that large soul that was almost a soul devourer, that allowed Wang Lin’s soul to grow by leaps and bounds.
When he spread his divine sense, it could stretch for thousands of miles. As a result, he kept track of his surroundings with his divine sense while he flew forward. After a long time, Wang Lin stopped with a shocked expression as he stared into the distance. The Linq Qi in his body started to become violent, as if there were some mysterious force pulling it, causing his Ling Qi to be in an excited state.
Shortly after, with his divine sense, he detected dark blue Qi waves rolling in from the distance. The Qi waves were thousands of feet tall with lengths that couldn’t even be estimated. The Qi wave was really far, but the earth shattering roar they produced could still be heard.
After a few seconds, the Qi came a lot closer, causing Ling Qi to fluctuate even more violently. Without a word, Wang Lin turned and flew away from it. Those Qi waves were too strange, and Wang Lin was very alarmed by their appearance.
What made Wang Lin’s heart sink was that he was losing control of the Ling Qi in his body. When the Ling Qi shook violently, his speed slowed down by a lot.
The Qi Wave came even closer. The roar made it sound like it was right behind Wang Lin. Wang Lin was surprised, but his eyes remained calm. He knew he wouldn’t be able to escape the Qi wave in time, so he pointed his right hand to his brow, and the Heaven Revolting bead came out. Wang Lin’s body quickly started to fade before disappearing completely.
After about ten breaths, the Qi wave roared past where Wang Lin disappeared, and disappeared into the distance. After a few moments, Wang Lin’s image gradually started to appear, until he became real again. He stared at the Qi wave that passed by for a long time, mulling over what he had just witnessed.
After staring for a while, he continued to fly forward.
Six Desire Devil Lord appeared within a thousand feet of the third realm’s exit. The blood red light faded around him, revealing a bitter and skinny face. In his hand, he held a skeleton that was missing an arm.
There were gold spots on the skeleton, releasing tiny rays of golden light.
Most the flesh in his body was lost in the struggle against the wandering souls. His Yuan Ying was on the verge of collapse. There were countless wandering souls in his body. When they attacked, Six Desire Devil Lord’s stamina dropped quite a bit.
Now, he didn’t even have the energy to active the Blood Desire Escape technique anymore. He could only quietly wait for the wandering souls to consume him, or for his master to catch him.
In his heart, he really hoped that his master could catch up before the wandering souls consumed him, even if it meant turning into a demon. He’d rather preserve his life.
Unfortunately, this desire of his would be very difficult to achieve, because at that moment, his Yuan Ying’s last line of defense collapsed in an instant from the wandering soul’s attack, exposing his Zifu soul.
The wandering souls revealed greedy expressions and piled forward. Six Desire Devil Lord was helpless right now, but the skeleton in his released a golden light.
Large amounts of golden light came from the skeleton and surrounded Six Desire Devil Lord. Immediately, the wandering souls that were pouncing at him started to scream, and quickly left his body to escape from the golden light.
Six Desire Devil Lord gawked at what had just happened in front of him. After the wandering souls left, he quickly took control of his body again. He revealed an excited expression as he stared at the skeleton in his hand. He felt like he had just escaped certain death.
But soon after, he was very suspicious, but right now was not the time to ponder over it.
All the wandering souls in his surrounding started backing off, as if they feared the golden light. Six Desire Devil Lord was a decisive man. The moment he realized this, he put away the suspicious feelings in his heart and headed toward the exit of the third realm.
The huge rift near the exit had already closed. Without the obstruction of the wandering souls, he almost immediately arrived at the exit and stepped into the whirlpool.
He felt extremely relieved in that moment. The third realm was too scary. If he could escape from here, he vowed to never return.
When he came here the for first time a thousand years ago, although he had also reached the third realm, it wasn’t this strange. His master’s revival, Hunchback Meng turning into a demon, and the series of events created a fog of confusion in his heart. This fog only spread out and caused him to be very nervous.
He was inside the whirlpool. The moment the purple lightning came down, he waved his hands and executed a series of hand techniques. After he finished, his Yuan Ying had shrunk by a large amount.
The color in his eyes dulled a lot. That technique landed on the skeleton in his hand. The golden light shined brighter as the bones started to crack, before bursting into dust and starting to spread in all directions.
Amidst the cloud of ashes were countless specks of golden light. Six Desire Devil Lord waved both his hands, making the ashes scatter as the golden specks came together to form a shiny golden arm bone.
