There was only one sentence on the jade. Wang Lin pondered for a long time, but he didn't fully understand the meaning of this sentence.
According to the meaning of the words, there could be many interpretations.
Wang Lin's gaze swept past Master Ashen Pine. He knew that Master Ashen Pine had come here several times and explored a lot of caves and remains. He must have obtained some rare treasures and jades that recorded cultivation methods or information.
Otherwise, this person wouldn't be so familiar with this place.
Master Ashen Pine cautiously walked forward along the narrow path. He only had a simple map and hadn't actually walked this path. Before, when he came to the Seven-Colored Realm, he took a different route, and it was on that route that he obtained the map and information that made his heart thump.
Several days passed in the depths of the narrow path. After avoiding fog beasts one after another, the group gradually arrived at the depths of the mountain range. Ahead of them was the final mountain range, and once they passed it, they would be able to see what lay beyond the mountain range.
The old woman in green was calm and didn't look around. She seemed to be in a meditative state. Wang Lin looked at the old woman several times but couldn't see through her thoughts.
Wang Lin only knew that this old woman in green was surnamed Zhao. He didn't know anything else.
However, as he paid attention along the way, he noticed that although the old woman was following Master Ashen Pine, every step she took was very clever.
There were many restrictions here, but most of them had collapsed over time. However, the old woman's footsteps always landed on empty or weak areas.
This seemed to be a habit that would not change just because the restriction had collapsed and lost its power.
Unless one was a grandmaster in restrictions, it would be very difficult to notice such a subtle thing.
The old man named Pang followed closely behind Master Ashen Pine and didn't dare to get too close to Wang Lin. It was obvious that he dreaded Wang Lin.
At this moment, there was no path ahead. Master Ashen Pine frowned and began to ponder.
The sky was still shrouded in seven-colored light, making it impossible to tell if it was day or night. Fluctuations of origin energy echoed in the sky, attracting everyone's attention.
Wang Lin's eyes lit up and he looked into the distance. He could see several mountains away, and there was fog churning in the sky. The origin energy fluctuations were coming from there.
There was a soul-shaking feeling in the ripples of the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi.
Master Ashen Pine looked into the distance and coldly said, "It's Chen Tianjun's Battle Beast Sect's spell."
After a long time, the fluctuations gradually dissipated and the fog in the distance calmed down. It was as if nothing had happened and there were no more fluctuations.
"I'm afraid this Chen Tianjun is doomed. He didn't listen to advice, so he deserved to die!
This Seven-Colored Realm can't be casually walked, and the path is constantly changing. Unless one knows this place well, no one can casually enter and leave. "The old man named Pang sneered and his eyes were filled with mockery.
Master Ashen Pine took a few steps back and clasped his hands at the old woman in green. "OK, let's not talk about Chen Tianjun for now. Fellow Cultivator Zhao, I've checked this place a bit and found some clues about the restrictions. As for the specific method to break them, I'll need Fellow Cultivator Zhao to help me."
Master Ashen Pine took a few steps back and clasped his hands at the old woman in green. "Unfortunately, Fellow Cultivator Duanmu was taken away by the Lost Ones.
Master Ashen Pine shook his head. "Unfortunately, Fellow Cultivator Duanmu was taken away by the Lost Ones. Otherwise, with his domain spell, he would be able to temporarily seal the changes and help Fellow Cultivator Zhao."
"Most of the restrictions here are things I've never seen before, so I'm not confident I can break them." The old woman in green walked forward and arrived at the end of the area.
There was no road here, only a mountain range. If one wanted to pass, they had to climb to the top. However, there was a thick layer of fog that blocked all paths.
Touching the mountain rock, the old woman in green's eyes lit up and she began to ponder.
Wang Lin's expression didn't change as he looked at the mountain rock a bit. He withdrew his gaze and sat down to cultivate. He kept himself at peak condition to face any unexpected events.
Time slowly passed. The old woman in green didn't move, but the change in her eyes became even more intense and she frowned.
"Fellow Cultivator Ashen Pine, are you sure there are restrictions here?
Instead of climbing the mountain? "The old woman in green turned around and looked at Master Ashen Pine.
"There isn't just one fierce beast on this mountain range. According to what the Old Man knows, there are seven!
All of them are rank 12 fierce beasts. When the Old Man came here, he took a different route and climbed the mountain once. However, he suffered heavy casualties and didn't pass.
Master Ashen Pine pondered a bit and then slowly said, "Then I found a map jade. The map clearly showed that there is a passage through the mountain range, and the entrance to the passage is here!"
The old woman in green pondered for a while, then she took two steps back and formed a seal with both hands. Immediately, a series of hand seals appeared. These hand seals overlapped with each other and turned into an extremely complicated seal that suddenly landed on the mountain rock in front of her.
Wang Lin was startled and casually looked over.
When the restriction landed on the mountain rock, the mountain rock seemed to melt and ripples appeared. It was as if a stone had been thrown into a lake.
However, the strange thing was that the ripples were actually strings of tiny runes. An ancient and almost rotten aura was slowly being emitted from the mountain rock.
The old woman in green took a few more steps back. Her hands quickly formed seals and pointed at her chest a few times. Suddenly, seven strands of black gas came out of the old woman's seven orifices. These seven strands of black gas contained dense life force and surrounded the old woman. She took a deep breath and suddenly stepped forward.
With three steps, the old woman sank into the mountain rock. The ripples became even more intense and became transparent. This allowed Master Ashen Pine and company to clearly see that there was a giant cave inside the mountain rock.
However, aside from the entrance, it was completely dark inside. Even their gazes were devoured by the darkness.
The old woman in green sank into the mountain rock and her face immediately became pale. Her body twisted strangely as if she was being squeezed by an unimaginable force, and popping sounds could be heard.
She closed her eyes and silently breathed in and out for a moment. When she opened her eyes, she lifted her foot and walked forward. With every step she took, her body would tremble violently, and with every step she took, the ripples on the mountain rock would multiply. That ancient presence seemed to have turned into a majestic presence that enveloped the area.
After taking three steps in a row, the old woman's eyes were bloodshot. Her hands formed a seal and she mercilessly pointed at the spot between her eyebrows. The old woman's wrinkled face suddenly underwent a strange and shocking change.
Many of the wrinkles disappeared, and even the old woman's body seemed to return to its youth in that instant. She became a middle-aged woman in her forties. Although her appearance was not stunning, she had the grace of a mature and beautiful woman. She lifted her right foot and took two more steps forward. Just as she was about to take her sixth step, the beautiful woman coughed up a mouthful of blood. She seemed to be unable to bear it any longer. She staggered backwards, and with a bang, she retreated from the mountain rock.
Only after retreating to Wang Lin's side did the beautiful woman stop. Her appearance instantly changed and she became old again.
The old woman bitterly said, "Nine Step Heaven Sealing Formation!"
"This formation is an ancient formation. I've only seen it in ancient books. This is the first time I've seen a real formation. The person who was able to set up this formation must have reached the peak in terms of restrictions and formations."
"Nine Step Heaven Sealing Formation …" Wang Lin looked at the mountain rock. At this moment, as the old woman retreated, the mountain rock gradually returned to normal, and nothing could be seen.
"This formation has been damaged by the passage of time, so it can no longer attack. However, its sealing effect is as good as before.
With my cultivation level, I can take at most five steps. If I take another step, my fleshly body won't be able to withstand it. "
Master Ashen Pine frowned as he looked at the formation and asked, "How can I break this formation?"
The old woman in green took out a medicinal pill and swallowed it. As she breathed, she said, "Take 10 steps and you can break the formation!"
Master Ashen Pine pondered for a long time. After a long time, he clenched his teeth and waved his right hand. Immediately, a black armor appeared around him. Devil qi spread out, making Master Ashen Pine look like a devil.
"I want to see how many steps the Old Man can take in this formation with his cultivation level and the God-Devil Armor!
Fellow Daoist Zhao, open the formation for me! "
Master Ashen Pine had no other choice. He had already come this far, so he wasn't willing to give up now. He took a step forward and headed toward the mountain rock.
The old woman in green formed a seal and pointed forward. A restriction flew out and landed on the mountain rock before Master Ashen Pine. Ripples appeared on the mountain rock once more and it became transparent.
Master Ashen Pine didn't stop at all and directly entered the mountain rock. His mid stage Nirvana Shatterer cultivation erupted, and the moment he entered the mountain rock, he took four steps in a row!
Every step seemed to cause a thunderous rumble. Master Ashen Pine's face became slightly pale and the devilish energy coming from his armor became even stronger. After taking four steps, he paused for a moment and his eyes lit up. He unexpectedly took three more steps!
After taking these three steps, Master Ashen Pine's face was pale and his body trembled. However, he clenched his teeth and let out a roar as he took another step!
This was the eighth step!
The moment he took the eighth step, popping sounds came from Master Ashen Pine's body. Blood came out from the corner of his mouth and his eyes were bloodshot. His 1,000 years of preparation had been stopped by this formation. He was unwilling!
Roar!
Master Ashen Pine clenched his teeth and took another step. At this instant, the old man named Pang's eyes were filled with anticipation. The old woman in green's eyes lit up, but it was impossible to see what she was thinking.
The moment the ninth step landed, Master Ashen Pine felt like he had smashed into a mountain. A powerful rebound force came from his body and he coughed out blood. He was knocked off the mountain rock and only stopped after retreating several dozen feet.
"If I can't enter, none of them can leave the Seven-Colored Realm!" Master Ashen Pine's face was pale as he looked at the mountain rock. His eyes were filled with madness and tyranny.
"Let me try."
Wang Lin stood up from the lotus position and patted the dust off his clothes. He looked at the scattered devil armor on Master Ashen Pine and calmly said, "Master Ashen Pine, I'm not afraid.
