The 30,000 souls were moving in and out of the dragon's body. Teng Huayuan was startled as the dragon passed through the souls and charged at him.
Teng Huayuan's expression changed. He didn't have time to think as he threw out several defensive treasures to try and stop the dragon. However, no matter what the treasures did, they couldn't stop the dragon. The dragon completely ignored the defensive treasures and directly passed through them. It let out a roar and swallowed Teng Huayuan.
Lin Yi's expression was strange. He looked at the Giant who had been watching the show in the air and found that the Giant also had a strange expression. The two of them looked at each other, and the Giant laughed. He looked at the Giant Dragon with a playful expression.
When Teng Huayuan's blood was about to enter his body, he only felt a gentle breeze. The moment the dragon touched his body, the dragon's head disappeared without a trace.
Teng Huayuan hadn't felt cold sweat in a long time, but in just an instant, his back was covered in a large amount of sweat.
"Illusion technique … Fuck!"
Teng Huayuan's face alternated between green and red. In the end, he couldn't help but curse. Ever since he reached the Core Formation stage, he had never cursed like this before.
Being tricked by an illusion technique in front of all the cultivators of Zhao caused Teng Huayuan's anger to rise to the limit. He gloomily slapped his bag of holding and was about to take out the black flag to kill all of Wang Lin's relatives in front of him. However, at this moment, specks of light appeared in the air and fused together. The young man appeared again.
Without a word, he waved his right hand and a ray of green light shot toward Teng Huayuan. The green light instantly closed in on Teng Huayuan.
Teng Huayuan sneered. Not only did he not retreat, he moved forward. At the same time, he reached out with his hand and mocked, "The first time was an illusion technique, but the second time might not be the same. Wang Lin, is this all you have?" With that, his hand grabbed the flying sword.
With a flash of green light, the flying sword disappeared. When it reappeared, it was already behind Teng Huayuan. The flying sword turned around and mercilessly stabbed into Teng Huayuan's back.
With a ding sound, the flying sword seemed to have stabbed into metal and was knocked far away. From the tattered clothes on Teng Huayuan's back, one could see that he was wearing a set of golden armor.
Teng Huayuan's eyes became cold. His expression was gloomy as he took a step forward and appeared before the young man. His right hand reached out toward the young man.
At the same time, he waved his left hand and eight blood-colored pillars of light appeared next to the two of them. The eight pillars of light intersected and formed a cage.
At the same time, the young man didn't panic at all. Instead, he revealed a look of mockery. As Teng Huayuan's hand reached out, his body turned into a shadow and slowly disappeared.
Two green grains of rice, one big and one small, emerged from the young man's body the moment he disappeared. Then, the two green grains of rice quickly collided with each other.
Teng Huayuan's expression suddenly changed. Just at this moment, a blue ripple spread out and covered an area with a radius of 1,000 meters.
At this moment, the area within 1,000 meters became a blue ocean.
Lin Yi's eyes narrowed as he thought to himself, "Interesting, this little guy has Fantasy City's Dry Illusion and Underworld Sect's Blue Ice Flash. Hmm … that flying sword isn't simple either. Although it's a replica, it still has some power."
At this moment, the giant in the sky was also startled. He looked meaningfully in the direction of the Jue Ming Valley's passageway. His mouth cracked open and revealed a strange smile.
In the sky, within the circle formed by the two flood dragons, the thin membrane had mostly melted away. It looked like it was about to completely open.
The blood-colored pillar of light around Teng Huayuan's body suddenly made cracking sounds and turned into eight ice statues. The cage had completely lost its effect.
At the same time, layers of blue ice quickly climbed up his feet. Teng Huayuan could clearly feel waves of coldness enter his body. His hands and feet immediately became stiff, but he didn't panic. This level of coldness didn't affect him much. He circulated the spiritual energy in his body and his hands and feet gradually recovered.
Just at this moment, Wang Lin's eyes lit up and his body suddenly disappeared. He used one of the two teleportations he had left.
He reappeared just as the blue ripple spread out. Wang Lin used his body's resistance to the cold and was not affected by the ripple. He silently appeared next to Teng Huayuan.
He knew his own strength was not enough to fight against a Nascent Soul cultivator. His opponent could kill him countless times with a wave of their hand, so Wang Lin didn't think about getting revenge. Although his heart was filled with killing intent, he suppressed it. The moment he reappeared, his right hand reached out and grabbed Teng Huayuan's bag of holding.
Teng Huayuan noticed Wang Lin the moment he appeared. He turned around and saw that it was Wang Lin. He immediately understood what had happened, but his hands and feet were still recovering, so his movements were slow. Plus, Wang Lin's sudden appearance was too sudden.
By the time Teng Huayuan saw Wang Lin, Wang Lin's hand had already grabbed his bag of holding.
Teng Huayuan's face became ferocious.
He shouted, "Explode!"
At the moment Wang Lin's hand touched the bag of holding, a destructive force came out from the bag and entered his body through his arm. With a series of crackling sounds, his arm began to explode from his fingertips. Wang Lin clenched his teeth. He chopped off his right hand with the green sword and borrowed the force of the explosion to quickly retreat.
At the same time, his left hand reached out and grabbed the bag of holding with the attraction force technique. Then he quickly retreated along with his body.
At this moment, Teng Huayuan's body had already recovered. He took a step out of the blue circle of holding and chased after Wang Lin.
In the blink of an eye, Teng Huayuan caught up. He reached out and shouted, "Wang Lin, do you think you can open the Old Man's bag of holding just because you have it? Back then, you killed my great-great-grandson. Today, I will extract your soul and refine it into a soul flag. I will make you suffer the cruelest torture in the world until you die!"
Wang Lin's right hand had already been completely destroyed. As he retreated, he activated his spiritual energy and endured the pain to freeze the wound to prevent blood from flowing out. He didn't dare to take Teng Huayuan's bag of holding, so he used the attraction force technique to grab it.
Teng Huayuan was very angry. Dealing with a Foundation Establishment cultivator in front of so many people was something that would damage his own reputation. If he could capture or kill Wang Lin in an instant, it wouldn't be a big deal. However, he was tricked by the strange illusion technique and was covered in dirt. Then, he was hit by the blue ice and his body went numb. Although he quickly recovered, Wang Lin suddenly appeared and took away his bag of holding.
This feeling was no less than being slapped in the face in front of everyone. And it wasn't just one slap, it was slapped again and again.
What annoyed him the most was that Wang Lin, who couldn't even withstand one blow, knew how to teleport. It has to be said that teleportation was a technique that only cultivators above the Nascent Soul stage could use.
Aside from all of this, what shocked Teng Huayuan the most was how decisive and tenacious Wang Lin was. He cut off his right hand without any hesitation to prevent the explosion from spreading. Teng Huayuan couldn't help but admire Wang Lin, but this admiration was soon drowned out by hatred.
The more decisive Wang Lin was, the more Teng Huayuan wanted to kill him.
"Wang Lin, you killed my great-great-grandson first, so you can't blame anyone else. However, don't worry, after I kill you, the Old Man won't let old man Jimo and his family go. I will send them to accompany you in hell."
Teng Huayuan sneered in his heart. Without any hesitation, he waved his hand and a gust of wind appeared. The 30,000 souls all charged toward Wang Lin.
In order to prevent Wang Lin from teleporting again, Teng Huayuan hit his chest and his nascent soul came out of his head. The nascent soul let out a roar and shrunk a lot. Shortly after, the nascent soul spat out a ball of blood. The ball of blood immediately spread out and formed a blood curtain that surrounded the area.
Using the power of the curse between the two of them, Wang Lin, who was surrounded by the blood curtain, was immediately imprisoned. He was shocked and was about to teleport when he suddenly stared straight ahead. His body couldn't stop trembling as he stared at one of the souls rushing toward him. Two streams of blood flowed down his face. The face of the soul in pain was his father's.
Teng Huayuan noticed Wang Lin's expression and wasn't in a rush to chase. He smiled grimly and said, "Do you see this?
Do you really think the Old Man would put all of your family's souls in one soul flag?
Wang Lin, you are too naive. "
With that, he pointed with his right hand and the 30,000 souls all stopped. Shortly after, Wang Lin's father's soul flew out and charged toward Wang Lin.
Wang Lin clenched his teeth as blood flowed out from the corner of his mouth. He watched his father's soul enter his body. He endured the pain and let out a miserable laugh. His laughter became louder and louder until he coughed out a few mouthfuls of blood. He looked up at the sky and laughed loudly. "Cultivation, so this is cultivation. Good, good!"
With that, he slapped his forehead and spat out a strand of cold spiritual energy. It immediately wrapped around his father's soul and froze it without harming it at all.
Teng Huayuan looked at Wang Lin and suddenly felt a chill in his heart. But soon, he felt like it was ridiculous that he would be afraid of a Foundation Establishment cultivator. However, he couldn't stop the chill from rising in his heart. Teng Huayuan took a deep breath and pointed with his right hand again. Another soul flew out from the 30,000 souls. This time, it was Wang Lin's mother.
Wang Lin's body trembled and he loosened his grip on the bag of holding. This thing had lost its use to him.
Memories of his childhood, memories from before he entered the Heng Yue Sect, flooded into his mind … "Wang Lin, look how kind I am to you. I allowed you to reunite with your parents." As Teng Huayuan spoke, he pointed with his finger and Wang Lin's mother's soul entered Wang Lin's body.
The pain in his body couldn't compare to the pain in his heart. Wang Lin could feel that his heart was bleeding.
He stared at Teng Huayuan and once again used the cold spiritual energy to freeze his mother's soul.
Teng Huayuan let out a grim smile and said, "Okay, the game is over for now. I know you want to use the foreign battleground's tunnel to escape, but I already guessed it, so you can give up on that idea."
With that, he reached out with his right hand and Wang Lin's bag of holding flew into Teng Huayuan's hand. Teng Huayuan didn't even look at it as he crushed it. The bag of holding exploded along with everything inside, including the qualification token.
At the same time, the 30,000 souls charged toward Wang Lin and entered his body. They devoured his flesh, blood, and spiritual energy. Countless faces appeared on his skin.
There were even more that charged toward the ice that surrounded Wang Lin's parents, but they were all protected by Wang Lin's body.
Shortly after, Wang Lin's left hand was devoured bit by bit, then his legs. From beginning to end, Wang Lin didn't make a sound. He only stared at Teng Huayuan. His gaze made Teng Huayuan's heart feel even colder.
No one noticed that the giant in the sky was staring at Wang Lin with a hint of fanaticism in his eyes. He thought in his heart,
He thought to himself, "Evil energy, this is evil energy!"
As the 30,000 souls were devoured, Wang Lin's body slowly dissipated. Teng Huayuan's face revealed a ferocious expression as he muttered, "Li Er, grandpa has gotten revenge for you. You saw it, it's not over yet. Once his body is eaten, grandpa will extract his soul …" Wang Lin let out a miserable smile. He could no longer feel the pain in his body. While he still had one breath left, he used the attraction technique to place the ice that surrounded his parents' souls on his chest. This was the only thing he could do right now. Even if he died, he wanted to die with his parents.
He didn't regret coming out of the Jue Ming Valley. He knew that if he had hidden himself, he might have been able to temporarily escape. However, even if there was a tiny bit of hope, he wasn't willing to give up. If he came out, he might have a chance to take back his parents' souls, but if he didn't come out, there would be no chance at all.
His body was trapped inside the blood curtain. He had tried to teleport and found that it was useless. At this moment, the only thing left in Wang Lin's heart was hatred.
"Dad, Mom, Tie Zhu is unfilial. If there is a next life, I hope I won't be your son, because I … don't deserve it … If it wasn't for me, you wouldn't have suffered …" Wang Lin shed tears of blood as he closed his eyes … Just at this moment, an ancient sigh came from Wang Lin's chest. Shortly after, Wang Lin's body suddenly exploded and the 30,000 souls rushed out. Shortly after, a ray of black light shot out with the souls of Wang Lin's parents. It pierced through the blood curtain and flew into the tunnel to the foreign space.
The thin film that had been melted immediately collapsed under the impact of the black light.
When the giant and Lin Yi saw the black light, their expressions suddenly changed. Lin Yi cried out involuntarily, "That's …" As soon as he finished speaking, he immediately closed his mouth. Without another word, he leaped into the passageway. However, as soon as he touched the two flood dragons' circle, he was heavily bounced back.
