Chapter 366. The Conspiracy Reveals Itself (1/2)

Red Butterfly coughed out a mouthful blood. Her origin soul was damaged, but the hatred in her eyes were replaced by a hint of clarity.

Wang Lin’s origin soul returned to his body and his face became very pale. Although the battle between domains looked calm, it was the most dangerous part of this fight.

The moment Red Butterfly’s sword of intelligence landed, his origin soul was damaged. If it wasn’t for the fact that his life and death domain had evolved when he reached the mid stage of Soul Formation, his origin soul would have been destroyed.

Even right now, his life and death domain was only a bit more powerful than Red Butterfly’s domain. This was because, as Red Butterfly said, the heavenly reincarnation cycle was originally ruthless.

However, there was a very fine line between ruthless and emotionless. Because of this difference, Wang Lin barely won.

In truth, domain battles between cultivators were them proving their own dao paths to each other.

“I understand!” Red Butterfly’s eyes released a mysterious light as she looked toward Wang Lin. All of her hatred disappeared. She returned to the completely cold and emotionless gaze she had when she first met Wang Lin.

Wang Lin’s heart sank. Red Butterfly was indeed a genius to be able to gain something from this domain battle. This woman must be killed or else Wang Lin won’t have a day of peace in the future!

Wang Lin moved. He slapped his bag of holding and took out the restriction flag. Restriction gas flew out and formed into a black lance.

As more restriction gas entered the lance, there were sounds of it expanding. The lance grew larger and gained a stronger aura.

All of the restriction gas had gathered in the lance. This was the peak power of the restriction flag after reaching its first completion stage.

Wang Lin quickly charged forward with the lance in one hand. With his other hand, he swung down the celestial sword.

Boom!

The ice giant let out a roar and jumped into the air to punch Wang Lin. However, the lance was longer, so it lunged toward Red Butterfly at the ice giant’s forehead. The ice giant’s hand grabbed the lance.

However, the sword energy was right behind the lance, so it landed without any resistance.

Bang!

The giant let out a painful cry and its left hand smashed down as restriction gas entered its body. However, the lance didn’t hit Red Butterfly but stabbed the giant’s neck.

Boom!

The giant’s eyes dimmed and it slowly fell to the ground. Red Butterfly took a deep breath and pointed at her brow. Then she came out of the ice giant and floated in the air. Her current body was very weak, her life treasure was used up, her domain avatar was destroyed, her origin soul was heavily injured, and the ice giant was destroyed. Right now she was as weak as she was back in the Celestial Realm.

But she seemed to have a feeling of enlightenment and no longer had the urge to fight. She felt that once she comprehended this feeling, then killing this Ceng Niu would be as simple as waving her hand.

Countless cracks appeared on the giant as it fell and finally collapsed. All of the ice melted, revealing a pure-white whip.

Red Butterfly waved her hand and the soul lasher flew toward her.

How could Wang Lin let her succeed? This was something he had to obtain. The lance quickly turned into a black whip and wrapped around the soul lasher.

Red Butterfly’s expression changed and she shouted, “You dare?!”

“Why wouldn’t I dare!” Wang Lin laughed as he pulled the soul lasher toward him. He swung the celestial sword at Red Butterfly to prevent her from fighting him for it.

Red Butterfly’s face was gloomy. After pondering for a bit, she let go to dodge the sword energy and sneered at Wang Lin.

“Ceng Niu, this soul lasher has a seal placed on it by the Heavenly Jade Sect. Even if you steal it, you won’t be able to use it.”

As she spoke, the black line on Red Butterfly’s forehead slowly faded away until it disappeared without a trace.

Her domain avatar was destroyed during the domain battle, so her method to reach the Soul Transformation with relative ease was gone. But the enlightenment she gained made her confident that she would be able to break into the Soul Transformation stage on her own in a few decades.

She took a deep breath and four rays of light suddenly appeared around her. When the lights disappeared, four figures appeared.

Metal spirit, wood spirit, water spirit, fire spirit!

Aside from the earth spirit, the other elemental spirits all appeared!

This was Red Butterfly’s ultimate treasure. This was her root and where her talent came from.

Wang Lin scanned the soul lasher with his divine sense. What he saw made his heart sink. There was a powerful seal on the soul lasher, so his divine sense couldn’t get through it at all.

Wang Lin snorted. He put the soul lasher into his bag of holding and then stared at the four elemental spirits.

In today’s battle, Wang Lin had been heavily injured. Aside from the various injuries on his body, his origin soul had also been damaged. This could be said to be a very bitter fight.

Wang Lin’s eyes became cold and he thought, “Four spirits… My heaven defying bead will use these to reach completion today!”
