Wang Lin and Mu Bingmei's gazes narrowed as they looked at the open door of the courtyard. It was as if that door was a ravine that could not be crossed. Separated by the ravine, the two of them became silent under the moonlight.
This silence was different from when he was with Li Qianmei, but he couldn't tell exactly what was different. It seemed that in Wang Lin's life, aside from Li Muwan, there would always be a figure called Liu Mei, or perhaps Mu Bingmei, accompanying him … Suzaku was like this … The Luo Tian Star System was like this … Now, it was still like this in the Cloud Sea.
In this silence, Mu Bingmei lowered her head and gently stepped forward. She stepped through the ravine-like door and into the courtyard. She arrived at the grass a few dozen feet away from Wang Lin.
Mu Bingmei raised her head and looked at the night sky. Her voice was a bit hoarse as she slowly said, "I didn't expect to meet you here."
Wang Lin withdrew his gaze from Mu Bingmei. His expression was calm and no longer had the complicated expression from before. It was as if he was looking at a strange friend.
Wang Lin calmly said, "Most things in the world are difficult to predict."
Mu Bingmei's peerless face revealed an astonishing beauty under the moonlight. This beauty contained a noble temperament. This was the aura she naturally had as the Brilliant Void Saintess.
No woman Wang Lin had met in his life could compare to Mu Bingmei in terms of beauty. She was like a fairy that should not have appeared in this world and had accidentally appeared.
"Difficult to predict …" A hint of bitterness appeared on Mu Bingmei's face.
"Why did you come to the Cloud Sea?"
Wang Lin looked at Mu Bingmei. Although this woman's avatar had brought him endless pain, she had also been deeply imprinted in his mind. He could never, ever forget her.
However, Liu Mei was this woman's avatar. Everything about Liu Mei seemed to be carried on by this woman. Sometimes, even Wang Lin couldn't tell if she was Liu Mei or Mu Bingmei.
However, none of this was important. Before Wang Lin left the Alliance Star System, he had already ended all his grievances with this woman. The wind had returned, and his heart would never be moved again.
"Do you know a person called Tuo Sen … An ancient god …" Mu Bingmei looked at Wang Lin with bitterness and worry.
"Tuo Sen!!" Wang Lin's gaze suddenly changed, and a cold glint flashed in his eyes.
"He escaped, and the army of the Luo Tian Star System collapsed. He killed countless of them, and they had no choice but to retreat back to the Luo Tian Star System. They no longer dare to take half a step in … The Luo Tian Star System has a powerful cultivator named Master Lu Fu. This person also retreated and didn't dare to fight with Tuo Sen!"
Mu Bingmei's words were very light, but the content was shocking. When Wang Lin heard it, Wang Lin took a deep breath. His aura suddenly condensed, and it was as if he was a volcano that was about to erupt.
However, Mu Bingmei's words weren't finished. She hadn't finished telling Wang Lin the news she wanted to tell him!
"The star system occupied by the Shiyin Star System was found by Tuo Sen. The king of the Shiyin Star System fell, and there were many casualties. The entire Shiyin Star System almost collapsed!
"The Four Divine Sect suffered heavy casualties as Tuo Sen advanced. Although the Azure Dragon Divine Emperor's cultivation was heaven-shaking, he was still no match for Tuo Sen … In the end, his fate is unknown!
"All the remaining forces of the Cultivation Alliance collapsed under Tuo Sen's attack, and they all scattered … Only the headquarters of the Cultivation Alliance, for some reason, didn't attract Tuo Sen's attention. Due to a strange combination of factors, the headquarters is still intact!"
Wang Lin's pupils shrank. The shock these pieces of news brought him was simply too great. It was as if a carriage worth tens of thousands of gold had crashed into his mind and caused him to collapse like a storm.
He didn't expect Tuo Sen's awakening to set off such a storm in the Alliance Star System!
Mu Bingmei bit her lower lip and softly said, "The Rain Celestial Realm you care about the most was not destroyed. Tuo Sen also went there, but he was stopped by Qing Lin. The two seemed to have an agreement, and in the end, Tuo Sen left."
"You're right. If Ru Er had chosen to stay by my side, then with her cultivation, it would have been difficult for her to escape this calamity … The Brilliant Void Realm no longer exists … All the cultivators inside died in battle. Even the housekeeper who guarded the Brilliant Void Realm died at Tuo Sen's hands, giving me a chance to escape … My body has already collapsed. What you see now is a body that I've reformed in recent days …"
"My cultivation has also regressed greatly. If I want to reach my peak, it will take time."
Wang Lin's shock calmed down at this moment. Although he was already mentally prepared for Tuo Sen's appearance, hearing Mu Bingmei's words still shocked him.
"As the Brilliant Void Saintess, I have the inheritance of the Brilliant Void Realm. Tens of thousands of years ago, the previous Brilliant Void Saintess had a relationship with the Cloud Sea God Sect. The head elder of the God Sect owed the saintess a favor, so I used a secret technique to escape here. I wanted to cultivate in the God Sect and borrow the power of the God Sect to recover my cultivation …" Mu Bingmei's voice was low, and as she spoke, her body suddenly trembled.
What made her tremble was Wang Lin!
Wang Lin took a step forward and directly closed in on Mu Bingmei. He raised his right hand and his two fingers formed a sword. His fingers moved like lightning toward the spot between Mu Bingmei's eyebrows.
Mu Bingmei didn't dodge and was startled for a moment. Her face turned pale as if she had thought of something, but she wasn't sure. She let Wang Lin's fingers land between her eyebrows.
A thunderous rumble echoed in Mu Bingmei's mind. A moment later, a rotating aura appeared between her eyebrows. This aura rotated rapidly, and there was a dense ancient god aura coming from it!
This aura was so strong that others couldn't detect it, but Wang Lin clearly felt it. His expression was gloomy as he looked up at the night sky. No one knew what he was thinking.
Mu Bingmei's face was pale and she was startled. Her face was filled with bitterness and she retreated a few steps. It was as if she had lost all her strength.
"I'm … I'm sorry … I'm sorry …" Mu Bingmei bit her lower lip and two streams of tears flowed down from the corners of her eyes. In the end … she was still a woman.
Her original intention was to tell Wang Lin everything she knew so Wang Lin would be prepared. She was worried about Wang Lin's safety and wanted Wang Lin to know everything so that Wang Lin could leave as soon as possible.
Her intention was good.
"I … After I came to the Cloud Sea, I checked my body and origin soul many times, but I found nothing. This body reformed and even my origin soul was searched inch by inch … I …"
"It's fine."
Wang Lin lowered his head. When he saw Mu Bingmei's pale face and tears, as well as her regretful and panicked expression, he let out a sigh and softly said, "This matter has nothing to do with you.
I personally saw Luo Tian's third step cultivator, Master Lu Fu, being defeated by Tuo Sen and almost dying. With Tuo Sen's strength, you won't be able to find out if he left a mark on you without you noticing. "
Wang Lin's voice was gentle. He naturally saw Mu Bingmei's good intentions.
"I …" Mu Bingmei didn't expect everything to end up like this, and her face was pale.
"Moreover, since Tuo Sen left an ancient god mark on you, he might as well have sent me a tonic!"
Wang Lin's eyes lit up and his right hand reached toward the space between Mu Bingmei's eyebrows. As the ancient god auras attracted each other, the ancient god mark between Mu Bingmei's eyebrows flew out and turned into a ray of aura that shot toward Wang Lin.
The moment it closed in on Wang Lin, stars rotated between Wang Lin's eyebrows and directly absorbed the aura into the sixth star that had just taken shape!
In an instant, Tuo Sen's shadow appeared in his mind. He let out a ferocious roar, but Wang Lin's ancient god body immediately appeared before him.
This was a devouring and absorption. Although Tuo Sen was strong, he didn't leave much on Mu Bingmei. In an instant, it was forcibly devoured by Wang Lin, and his sixth star became even more stable.
Mu Bingmei took a deep breath. Her eyes were filled with guilt and complexity as she softly said, "He … Before he left the Alliance Star System, he called out your name. He wanted to find you and even came to the Cloud Sea Star System, but he couldn't find you."
Wang Lin's expression suddenly changed. He looked at Mu Bingmei and asked, "Do you know when he came to the Cloud Sea?"
Mu Bingmei pondered a bit and softly said, "I'm not very clear about the specific time. At that time, I was in closed door cultivation to recover, but it shouldn't have been more than 100 years."
"100 years!" Wang Lin's eyes lit up and he began to ponder.
During these 100 years, Wang Lin had spent most of his time in the strange Dao Seed Space. He vaguely knew that his location seemed to be related to the Sealed Realm Formation.
"Tuo Sen definitely didn't find my aura in the Sealed Realm. If I were him, I would consider if he had left the Sealed Realm … And the place I was at was related to the Sealed Realm Formation. Once Tuo Sen tried to break the Sealed Realm Formation, he would likely notice … As a result …" Wang Lin's expression immediately became strange.
"If this Tuo Sen is still in the Sealed Realm, it has been several months since I left the Seven-Colored Realm, so there is no way he wouldn't find me. But he still hasn't come … Then … I can almost conclude that this Tuo Sen somehow broke the Sealed Realm Formation and went … to the Outer Realm!"
Just as Wang Lin was analyzing the answer, a roar echoed across the Ancient Star System. A giant ancient god let out an angry roar and charged out from one of the Ancient Star System clans. Behind him was monstrous red light and the smell of blood filled the air.
This was the ninth ancient clan he had destroyed. Tuo Sen, who still couldn't find Wang Lin in the Ancient Star System, almost went crazy!
However, just a moment ago, when he was about to slaughter the Brilliant Void Saintess, his mind trembled. He clearly felt the imprint he had left on the Brilliant Void Saintess detect Wang Lin's aura!
This discovery caused Tuo Sen's expression to instantly turn ugly. A storm crazily erupted within his body.
"You're in the Inner Realm!!!
How could you be in the Inner Realm? I clearly searched the Inner Realm countless times!!! "
Tuo Sen roared like crazy, but at this moment, he didn't have the strength to break the Sealed Realm Formation again in a short period of time!
