Wang Lin calmed his mind. The sound of the Seven-Colored Daoist breaking the restriction seemed to have been isolated. He was completely immersed in studying the restriction.
Just at that moment, a strange gust of wind appeared. That wind blew onto the pole of the Soul Demon Ship and lifted the sail, causing the ghostly faces on the sail to reveal demonic glints in their eyes.
This ghostly face seemed to stare at Wang Lin and revealed a strange smile, as if it was alive.
Wang Lin frowned and felt a sense of uneasiness in his heart. He couldn't calm down. He looked up and his gaze fell on the sail's ghostly face. Their gazes met.
A moment later, Wang Lin gradually calmed down. He lowered his head and immersed himself in studying the restriction once more.
The restrictions under Wang Lin's feet gradually lit up. Ripples spread across the deck and into the distance.
"Of the four great Restrictions, I know the most about the Annihilation Restriction. The Life and Death Restriction and the Time Restriction are also passable. Only the Auspicious Soul Restriction is something I haven't seen much of. I only saw the gigantic yong in the Fallen Land.
"However, there are many Ancient Soul Restrictions on this deck …" As Wang Lin pondered, the deduction in his eyes became even stronger. His right hand pointed at a restriction rune.
This rune was a miniature Ancient Soul Restriction!
There were faint roars coming from it. As Wang Lin's gaze swept by, he could vaguely see a giant python inside the restriction. This python was extremely ferocious and kept roaring at Wang Lin as if it wanted to rush out and devour Wang Lin.
Time slowly passed, and in the blink of an eye, six hours had passed. During these six hours, the restriction light screen outside the ship continued to rumble and flicker violently. Faint rays of seven-colored light seemed to penetrate through and shine on the deck.
Fan Shanmeng's eyes gradually became cold as she stared at Wang Lin. The shock from before had completely calmed down. From her point of view, Wang Lin had reached a bottleneck and hadn't moved for six hours.
"How can this Soul Devil Ship be so easy to study? Earlier, this person was already at his limit when he opened the restriction on the deck, but now he wants to break the restriction on the ship. Wang Lin, ah, Wang Lin, you are too arrogant!" Fan Shanmeng's expression was calm, and she couldn't see the sneer in her heart.
"Fellow Daoist Wang, it has already been six hours. If you go to the Cotton Altar now, you might still be able to make it …" Fan Shanmeng said softly.
Wang Lin turned a deaf ear to her, as if he hadn't heard her at all. He continued to stare at the restriction on his right hand, and the deduction in his eyes became even more intense.
"Auspicious Soul Restriction … Use the soul as a guide and fuse it into the restriction, causing the restriction to become alive. This way, it can change constantly, and the stronger the sealed soul, the more powerful the restriction will be … This restriction isn't difficult!"
At the tenth hour, Wang Lin suddenly closed his eyes and pointed at the restriction rune with his right hand. With this, the restriction rune trembled and collapsed with a bang. The moment it collapsed, an illusory python turned into a ray of black smoke and shot out. However, before it could spread far, Wang Lin caught it with his right hand and squeezed it. The black smoke immediately disintegrated, but it didn't dissipate. Instead, when Wang Lin formed a seal with his right hand and pointed, the black smoke turned back into a restriction and returned to its original spot.
"This is the first one …" Wang Lin opened his eyes and looked at the restriction rune on the deck that he had studied and understood. His expression was calm as he raised his head to look at Fan Shanmeng.
"There's no rush. There's still enough time."
Fan Shanmeng frowned. Although Wang Lin had broken one restriction rune, the number of restriction runes on the deck was almost unimaginable. Even so, they were only on the periphery. There were still restrictions inside the Soul Demon Ship.
"Ten hours to break one. At this speed, I'm afraid that even after three days, Fellow Daoist will only be able to break a dozen or so. You …" Before Fan Shanmeng could finish speaking, popping sounds came from around Wang Lin.
She was dumbfounded when she saw Wang Lin wave his right hand, and nine restrictions on the deck collapsed. After turning into black smoke, they reformed into new restrictions that landed in their original spots.
"This is …" Fan Shanmeng sucked in a deep breath. However, before she could completely inhale, her eyes bulged, and a look of disbelief appeared on them.
Wang Lin waved his right hand again. Booming sounds echoed in the air, and the runic restrictions on the deck collapsed one after another. Eighty, hundreds, thousands, and in the end, tens of thousands of them exploded. The black smoke they released turned into a black storm that swept up the deck and swept through the area.
In just a few breaths, there were no longer any restrictions within 1,000 feet around Wang Lin. The only thing left was the black storm. In the end, the storm shattered into pieces and turned back into runic symbols that landed in their original spots. That was when Fan Shanmeng's shock began.
"I've embarrassed myself in front of fellow Daoist." Wang Lin smiled faintly.
Fan Shanmeng sucked in a deep breath and forced out a smile. She nodded and said, "Fellow Daoist, your attainments in restrictions are indeed extraordinary. However, there are tens of millions of restrictions on the deck, and fellow Daoist has finally broken one hundred of them. It's quite rare … but …" Wang Lin raised his right hand, and the Destruction Restriction appeared in his hand. His eyes shone brightly, causing Fan Shanmeng to pause for a moment. At that moment, the Destruction Restriction in Wang Lin's hand suddenly flashed and turned into a black light that spread across the entire deck.
Booming sounds rang out again, and all the Annihilation Hexes on the deck trembled and collapsed at the same time. Among the tens of millions of Hexes, just the Annihilation Hexes numbered in the millions. Now that they all collapsed, the Soul Devil Ship trembled violently.
At the same time, the Life and Death Restrictions and the Time Restrictions appeared in Wang Lin's right hand and swept across the entire deck. Booming sounds rang out continuously as black gas rose into the sky. In the time it takes for half an incense stick to burn, countless restrictions collapsed and turned into black gas.
The black gas swirled around. Even Daoist Cai, who was outside the ship, narrowed his eyes and looked over carefully.
There was no need to even mention Fan Shanmeng, whose vision was blocked by the black gas. She stared blankly at all of this, and her mind instantly went blank.
"Ten hours … How is this possible? Even though the restrictions on the deck are only the outer layer, it's impossible for someone to completely break them in five hours. Furthermore, he didn't just break the restrictions on the deck. After breaking the restriction, he reversed it and controlled it … This … This … Amidst the booming sounds, the black gas gradually dissipated and turned into restrictions that fell onto the deck. In the blink of an eye, more than half of the tens of millions of restrictions on the deck belonged to Wang Lin!
Wang Lin's eyes lit up. He raised his right hand and four restrictions floated above it. These four restrictions were very different, they were the forms of the four great restrictions!
Breaking the restrictions on the deck wasn't difficult for Wang Lin. What was difficult was that he wanted to learn the Ancient Soul Restriction. In those ten hours, it looked like he was only studying one restriction, but in truth, as long as he finished studying that restriction, he would be able to comprehend the Ancient Flag Restriction!
After all, before this, Wang Lin wasn't completely ignorant about the Ancient Soul Restriction. Wang Lin had studied the Ancient Soul Restriction in the Fallen Land before. However, although that restriction looked complete, it still had many flaws. It was these flaws that affected Wang Lin's comprehension.
However, the Ancient Soul Restriction on the deck was different. It was extremely complete!
The current Wang Lin was no longer the same person who had studied restrictions for many years on Restriction Mountain. The current Wang Lin was at the mid stage of Spirit Void and had six essences. With his comprehension and understanding of restrictions, ten hours was enough for him to understand everything!
Wang Lin stood up and waved his right hand. Thunderous rumbles echoed and all the remaining restrictions on the deck collapsed. This included the Auspicious Soul Restriction and some Arcane Armament restrictions that Wang Lin had never seen before.
He didn't have the time to completely understand all the restrictions he had never seen before. He only needed to look at them and memorize them. After gaining some knowledge, he would destroy them by force.
This method might make the power of the restrictions on the deck weaker, but it would allow Wang Lin to quickly open a gap in the restrictions on the Soul Devil Ship!
Thunderous rumbles echoed. While Fan Shanmeng was shocked, all the restrictions on the deck were controlled by Wang Lin. Standing on the deck, Wang Lin was the owner of the deck. His eyes revealed a strange light as he looked at Fan Shanmeng.
"This ship has nine layers of restrictions. The deck is the first layer, and there are eight more layers below!
Fellow Cultivator, you said that if Wang breaks the restrictions, you will give me this ship? "
Fan Shanmeng's face was slightly pale. When the first layer of the Soul Demon Ship's restriction was broken, she clearly found that a part of her control over the ship had been stolen. It was as if a treasure had two owners!
She didn't expect such a drastic change to occur in just five hours.
Seeing that the other party didn't speak, Wang Lin smiled and shook his head. His body flickered and disappeared from the deck. When he reappeared, he was on the second deck of the Soul Devil Ship.
Staring at the spot where Wang Lin disappeared, Fan Shanmeng's eyes became cold.
"So what if he broke the first layer? The restrictions on the ship become more difficult the further you go. I don't believe that a mere Polypus Army cultivator from the cave world can completely control the Soul Devil Ship!"
Time passed. One hour, four hours, three days … In the blink of an eye, 14 hours had passed. A day quickly passed. The seven-colored light outside the ship became even more dazzling, and the Soul Devil Ship trembled even more violently. More than half of the light barrier had been broken by the Seven-Colored Daoist.
Just as the 14 hours passed, a shocking aura came from the second deck, and the Soul Devil Ship trembled violently.
"Impossible!!!"
Fan Shanmeng stood up, and the shock in her eyes couldn't be hidden. At this moment, another part of her control over the Soul Devil Ship had been stolen. Because her original body couldn't come here, she didn't have much control over the ship. She could only use less than 30% of the ship's power. Now that another part had been stolen by Wang Lin, she only had a bit more control than Wang Lin.
