Chapter 1794. A Promise to Teacher to Guard the Ancient Race (1/2)
The dragon’s body was the path to reincarnation. It led far away, with no end in sight. This path was not suitable for Wang Lin. He stood on the dragon and looked at the ice and then into the distance.
For an instant, he seemed to be able to see Li Qianmei and company make their way down the road toward reincarnation.
“Wang Lin, if you want to protect the soul, then you must take her and force your way to the Immortal Astral Continent. To resist the law of the Immortal Astral Continent, you must leave this road. You may become lost, you may die…” Xuan Luo’s voice echoed in Wang Lin’s heart.
“The law of the Immortal Astral Continent is invisible and can be felt in the form of pressure. If you can resist it, then you may be able to walk out!
“However, even with me helping, there is only 50% chance of it succeeding… Since ancient times, I have never heard of a Grand Empyrean help someone resist the law of the Immortal Astral Continent. You should be the first… This is your own fate, so there is no need to be too grateful toward this old man.
“If you can walk out, this old man will take you as my disciple and take you back to the Ancient Dao clan! If you end up dying… I’ll help you take care of the people that reincarnated… You… Take care!” Xuan Luo let out a sigh. He had really taken a liking to Wang Lin. He intended to pass everything to Wang Lin and let Wang Lin guard the Ancient Dao clan during his reincarnation period.
He even planned to help Wang Lin see if it was possible to enter the Immemorial God Realm and become the 10th sun. Although this matter was unpredictable and difficult, he had thought of it.
“The Immortal Astral Continent has countless cave worlds, and almost every sect has their own cave world. If you want life to appear in a cave world, you need a Heavenly Dao. Although there aren’t many Heavenly Daos, they aren’t rare either.
“Throughout the passage of time, I can imagine countless lives in the cave worlds have opened the door and tried to walk out, but they all died to the law of the Immortal Astral Continent...
“When you follow the dragon road toward the Immortal Astral Continent, you might see many portals. These portals are the other cave worlds of the Immortal Astral Continent. You will also see countless bodies; they are those that died over the countless years to the law of the Immortal Astral Continent.
“I don’t know what kind of consequences there will be when someone from the cave world enters the Immortal Astral Continent, but I hope you will be the first to succeed!
“I can’t stay for too long in the celestial land. I’ll wait for you for 10 years… If you’re not out in 10 years, you should be dead…” Xuan Luo’s words contained a sense of age as they echoed in Wang Lin’s mind. His figure appeared before Wang Lin.
His gaze was kind as he looked at Wang Lin like he was looking as his own descendent.
“With the law of the Immortal Astral Continent, I can’t leave any mark on you to see how far you have traveled or if you’re safe. The only thing I can use to judge is time… 10 years. Wang Lin, after 10 years, my spell that is helping you resist the law of the Immortal Astral Continent will break. The power of the law of the Immortal Astral Continent will reach its peak. Perhaps only a firm heart would make sure you’re not lost...
“You need to arrive on the Immortal Astral Continent in 10 years…”
Wang Lin silently pondered as he looked at Xuan Luo. He would forever remember everything Xuan Luo had done for him.
“Now, before you leave, tell me: are you willing to take me as your teacher?” Xuan Luo’s voice was gentle. When it entered Wang Lin’s ears, it was warm.
The determination to still be willing to accept Wang Lin right now instead of waiting until Wang Lin had made it to the Immortal Astral Continent made Wang Lin’s heart tremble.
“Teacher…” Wang Lin no longer had any reason to not accept this heavy kindness and responsibility. Wang Lin understood that this meant that he now had a connection and responsibility toward the Ancient Dao clan that he could not give up.
This meant he would protect the Ancient Dao Clan, even if he would have to pay the price with his life!
This was meant to repay everything Xuan Luo had done for him.
Xuan Luo laughed. He was very happy. He looked at Wang Lin and helped Wang Lin stand up. He carefully looked at Wang Lin, and his laughter echoed.
“Disciple, Teacher will wait for you on the Immortal Astral Continent!” As Xuan Luo spoke, he waved his right hand and a part of the ice along the dragon road melted, creating a gap. Bursts of ghostly light came from the gap. This light was part of the law of the Immortal Astral Continent.
“You’re my disciple, so I’ll give you a gift for becoming my disciple!” Xuan Luo hit his forehead with his right hand and bit the tip of his tongue to spit out a mouthful of blood. The blood gave off a red glow and turned into a blood dragon. The blood dragon roared as it surrounded Wang Lin and took him toward the gap in the ice.
“Teacher is one of the nine suns, so a mouthful of my essence blood will protect you for a while. I’ll now cast the spell to help you resist the law of the Immortal Astral Continent!” Wang Lin rushed toward the gap with the blood dragon. His right hand reached toward the void and rays of ghostly light flew out.
These rays of ghostly light were all the living things and souls in Wang Lin’s storage space. Aside from the madman, almost everyone was there!
