These nine floating fragments formed a circle and calmly moved through the Ancient Star System according to a strange trajectory. Due to the invisible formation, unless one had the bloodline of a celestial, they wouldn't be able to see anything.
Even if they passed by, they wouldn't be able to see it.
Without the bloodline of a celestial, their divine sense wouldn't be able to detect the invisible formation either.
The Sovereign respectfully clasped his hands and bowed toward one of the nine fragments. Seven different colors of light shined from one of the nine floating fragments and intertwined to form a seven-colored rainbow.
The remaining two fragments were dim and were covered by the seven-colored light.
As the T-colored light continued to flicker, a figure gradually formed within the seven-colored light. This figure's appearance was blurry, and it was filled with seven-colored light. Not long after, its appearance became slightly clearer, and it walked out of the T-colored light.
If Wang Lin saw this seven-colored figure, he would immediately recognize this person as the Seven-Colored Daoist that had appeared when he saved Shimizu!
"Disciple greets Teacher." The Sovereign silently pondered for a moment and looked at the seven-colored figure before him. There was a complicated gaze hidden in his eyes.
"In the battle of the Inner Realm, my Outer Realm lost … Teacher asked Disciple to return the Li Guang Bow to the Inner Realm. At this moment, it is in Wang Lin's hands, and Disciple can't resist it. Teacher, please instruct me!"
The seven-colored light gathered on the Seven-Colored Daoist. He stood there with a calm expression and his gaze swept past the Sovereign.
The T-Colored Daoist suddenly said, "Is he really crazy …"
The Sovereign's body trembled and he closed his eyes. After a long time, he opened them and nodded.
"I don't think so …" The T-Colored Daoist smiled and looked into the distance. His eyes revealed a strange light.
"I'll help you open the Ancient Tomb and let those people come out. As for what to do next, you can decide for yourself … This game is about to end … The third one, you've hidden yourself for countless years and reincarnated countless times. This time, you should come out …" The T-colored Daoist smiled, and his eyes were filled with anticipation.
The Sovereign hesitated and asked, "Wang Lin, is he the third?"
"Apart from you, me, the Old Devil Zhan, and a few others, anyone else could be the third … He's hidden too deeply … Or perhaps he himself doesn't know his true identity … As for this Wang Lin, he doesn't look like it … But it's not impossible."
The T-colored Daoist priest spoke slowly.
The Sovereign let out a sigh in his heart. He clasped his hands at the Seven-Colored Daoist and was about to leave. However, he only took a few steps before he stopped. He didn't look back and instead spoke in a serious tone.
"Back then, you asked me to acknowledge you as my master, and I obeyed.
What you promised me … "Your master cannot leave this place!
After I devour the third one, that Old Devil Zhan will no longer be a match for me. At that time, your former master will be my tonic … "The Seven-Colored Daoist smiled and his body disappeared in a flash of seven-colored light.
The Sovereign revealed a complicated expression. After a long time, he let out a sigh and walked into the distance.
Time slowly passed. Wang Lin sat inside the wheel formation formed by the three essences. Below him was the Emperor Furnace, and there were two Arcane Void cultivators inside. One was the old man in black and the other was the fifth celestial imperial concubine!
Their spells were shocking, and they could only be trapped inside the Emperor Furnace. However, it was impossible for Wang Lin to refine them in a short period of time.
He sat on the Emperor Furnace with his eyes closed. He continued to suppress and seal the Emperor Furnace.
Guarding for three years was the most difficult three years.
After an unknown amount of time, three rays of light appeared in the expanded Cloud Sea Star System behind Wang Lin. They turned into the figures of three women.
The three women were less than 10 feet from Wang Lin. They looked at Wang Lin's back on the formation 10,000 feet away.
This figure was very bleak and gave off a sense of loneliness, but at the same time, this figure gave off the feeling of a mountain. It was as if just by sitting there, he was like a mountain that gave the Inner Realm enough protection.
The first to step forward was Xi Zifeng. Her figure was weak as she slowly walked up to Wang Lin's side. She looked at Wang Lin, who was sitting there with his eyes closed. Xi Zifeng's eyes revealed a gentle gaze and a beautiful smile appeared on her face.
"I've thought it through. I don't want to be your disciple … Never!"
"We cultivators have a long lifespan. I don't know when our lives will end. I only want one year of your life!
Only one year is enough … You guard the Inner Realm for three years. Let me stay here with you for one year … "Xi Zifeng softly said.
Wang Lin silently pondered. His eyes were still closed and he didn't speak.
"In one year, I'll leave. If I die, then I'll disappear. If I live, then I'll cultivate in peace!"
"You can not speak, you can not look at me, but I'll still be here. You can't drive me away." Xi Zifeng didn't care about Wang Lin's attitude. She silently looked at Wang Lin as he sat there.
She was already a beautiful woman, and she had experienced the vicissitudes of time. However, at this moment, beside Wang Lin, she seemed to have returned to more than 1,000 years ago, to that era. Wang Lin was the first person she loved and also the last.
This process was like an endless period of time.
She was no longer young.
She could even feel that Wang Lin didn't have her in his heart. After all, they had only been together for a short time. Perhaps she was just a passerby in his life.
She understood all of this. Xi Zifeng didn't ask for eternity. She just wanted this one year, one year of companionship, to end a lifetime of love.
She was a woman without courage, but now she had finally mustered up the courage to say these words to Wang Lin. Although her expression was calm, her heart was very different. She was afraid of rejection, afraid that Wang Lin wouldn't even give her this one year.
She looked at Wang Lin and bit her lower lip.
Wang Lin didn't open his eyes and didn't look at her. He calmly said, "You can leave."
This sentence seemed to take away all of Xi Zifeng's strength. Her face immediately turned pale.
"I just want one year … Wang Lin, give me one year, okay …" As Wang Lin remained silent, Xi Zifeng's voice trembled. Her eyes were filled with moisture. Although she was a weak woman, she didn't cry many times in her life.
The few times she cried, they were mostly for this figure in front of her that she couldn't forget no matter what.
"An ill-fated relationship …" Her master's words from back then still echoed in her ears.
"One year, just one year, can't you do it!!
Wang Lin, I know you can't accept me, but I only want one year. Is one year very long …? "Wang Lin remained silent and didn't open his eyes. His appearance deeply pierced Xi Zifeng's heart. Xi Zifeng stood up with a bitter smile and staggered a few steps back.
She felt like a ridiculous actress talking to herself. In the end, all of her words turned into sharp thorns that pierced her own heart. That feeling was very painful.
With a long sigh, Wang Lin opened his eyes and looked at Xi Zifeng. He looked at this woman who wasn't someone who didn't exist in his memories. His gaze gradually softened and he softly said, "One year, I'll give it to you!"
"One year, I'll give it to you!"
Wang Lin didn't know if he could resurrect Li Muwan. He also didn't know if he would be able to leave this cave, or if he would die.
After knowing all these secrets, he didn't have the strength to refuse a woman's request of only one year.
He knew that if he refused again, this woman would wither and become an eternal memory. Perhaps years later, he wouldn't forget that there was a woman named Xi Zifeng.
Tears fell from Xi Zifeng's eyes. These were complicated tears. She silently sat down next to Wang Lin.
"One year, that's enough.
Wang Lin, I won't take up more of your time … "Xi Zifeng softly murmured.
In the distance, Mu Bingmei and the woman in pink silently sat down 10,000 feet away. When they came here together, they had a tacit understanding. One person, one year.
One year wasn't a long time. This was true for mortals and even more so for cultivators. Often, a closed door cultivation session could take several years in a flash.
However, for Xi Zifeng, she hoped that this year could pass more slowly.
Wang Lin wasn't someone who was good at talking, especially to women. He was silent most of the time. Even when he was with Li Muwan, he would silently and gently look at her.
In the blink of an eye, three months of the first year of the three years passed.
During these three months, Wang Lin didn't speak much, but Xi Zifeng was very satisfied. The two of them spent three months together on the rotation formation.
She knew Wang Lin liked to drink. At this moment, there was a small pot floating before him. There was water bubbling inside the pot, and there was a wine jug inside the pot. The boiling water was used to warm the coldness of the wine.
The water was boiling, but the wine was not yet warm. A cold wind that shouldn't exist in the starry sky came from the distance and blew on the warm wine pot, causing ripples in the boiling water.
There was a flash of coldness in Wang Lin's eyes. He raised his head and looked at the Ancient Star System. He saw countless rays of light closing in. Inside these rays of light was the army of cultivators that the Outer Realm had formed!
Among these cultivators, five people erupted with the pressure of third step cultivators. They were like five sharp arrows as they closed in.
In addition to the five of them, there were also numerous 3,000-meter-long war chariots being pushed forward by numerous cultivators, each of which was 3,000 meters long.
Thunderous rumbles echoed across the quiet star system. They became louder and louder until they were like Thunder descending.
"They're here!" There was a flash of coldness in Wang Lin's eyes.
