Looking at the moon in the night sky, a gentle breeze blew by, lifting a few strands of Wang Lin's white hair. It almost seemed as if he were about to fly up into the sky.
The wind was gentle, almost as if Wan Er's hand were caressing Wang Lin's aged face.
It felt like a thousand years.
That night, the moon was bright, and the stars were sparse. It was a sleepless night.
With Li Muwan as his companion, Wang Lin's heart was at peace, and he wasn't lonely.
As the wind blew past, it lifted Wang Lin's hair, and at the same time, touched the Heaven-Avoiding Coffin, causing Li Muwan's hair to flutter softly in the wind.
The hair wrapped around the inside of the coffin, as if it wanted to fly up into the sky. However, in the end, it lost all power, and floated back down to the ground.
As the moon grew darker, Wang Lin caught sight of an old man off in the distance. He was surrounded by blue light, and next to him was a woman.
That woman was none other than Li Qianmei.
Father and daughter had been here for a long time, and they had seen Wang Lin enter the dream, and his tears fall onto Li Muwan's body.
When Wang Lin looked over, the woman and her father turned around and the two of them gradually walked away under the moonlight.
However, their backs were also filled with loneliness. This was especially true for that woman.
Wang Lin closed his eyes and said nothing. That night belonged to him and Li Muwan, and no one else.
After a long time passed, the light of the rising sun began to disperse a bit. Suddenly, a second light could be seen on the ground. Wang Lin opened his eyes and looked at Li Muwan inside the Heaven-Avoiding Coffin. A single glance seemed like a thousand years.
"Wan Er, wait for me...." Wang Lin murmured. He waved his right hand, causing the Heaven-Avoiding Coffin to transform into a mysterious glow. Wang Lin carefully put it away, then looked up at the moon and the sun. He took a deep breath.
"It's time to find the third soul!
The Seven-Colored Daoist and the Old Devil Zhan should have found some clues … "Wang Lin's eyes lit up and he muttered.
Outside the Celestial Realm, just as Wang Lin expected, the four generals hadn't given up on searching for the third soul after experiencing the danger of the Heavenly Dao. At this moment, the four of them were in the Cloud Sea Star System, forming a formation. The giant gourd floating above their heads spat out a large amount of fog.
This fog seemed to be guiding them. After it dispersed, it continued to squirm and lead the four of them forward slowly.
They passed by the starry sky and the floating continents, moving towards the Luo Tian in the sea of clouds.
Behind them, the Old Devil Zhan silently followed with a gloomy face. Both sides seemed to maintain a certain balance, not interfering with each other.
After a long time, the gourd floating above the heads of the four generals suddenly spewed out more fog. The fog roared out and swept in all directions to form a huge figure.
This figure wasn't human, but a fierce beast that looked like a dog. This beast looked like a qilin, but there was a difference. Its entire body was made of fog, and as it stood there, it moved its head and its nose sniffed as if it was sniffing something.
A moment later, the beast suddenly raised its head and its eyes revealed a fierce gaze. It jumped off the heads of the four generals and charged forward.
As thunderous rumbles echoed, the four generals became spirited and quickly followed. Behind them, the Old Devil Zhan's eyes shined brightly. He found it difficult to hide the anticipation in his eyes as he stepped forward.
As the huge beast moved forward, it constantly sniffed the air. In the end, it stopped before an abandoned floating continent and roared at the continent.
The four generals closed in and quickly landed on the continent. Their divine senses spread out and shrouded the continent as they carefully searched it.
The Old Devil Zhan also landed on the continent and swept it with his divine sense. However, he soon frowned.
This continent was already abandoned and was filled with ruins. It was clear that a long, long time ago, there was life here and a large amount of mortals living here.
However, everything had disappeared with the passage of time. There was no life on this continent, and it was dead silent. There were only a few fierce beasts living here.
The eyes of the four generals lit up. They looked at each other, then their hands formed seals at the same time. Immediately, a destructive ripple spread out from their bodies and turned into a storm that enveloped the continent. In an instant, shrill screams of pain echoed in the air, and as the storm spread out, it destroyed all life on the continent.
After it was destroyed, wisps of smoke-like aura drifted out from the continent and surged into the mouth of the ferocious beast. Once it absorbed the aura, it turned its head and left the place, flying forward.
"Alas, this place isn't …"
"Although this place isn't, for the Celestial Sovereign's essence fog beast to stop here, it is clear that the Celestial Sovereign's third soul has reincarnated here …" The more the fog beast absorbs the third soul's reincarnation aura, the more it will be able to determine the location of the third soul. It has devoured several times, so it should be here soon! "
The four generals looked at each other before getting up and leaving the continent of death. They followed the fog beast and closed in on the edge of the Cloud Sea. That place led to the Luo Tian!
The Old Devil Zhan followed behind and stared at the fog beast before him. His eyes lit up.
"From the looks of it, could it be that the third soul is in the Luo Tian!?
I spent the most time in the Luo Tian. If it is really in the Luo Tian, then is the third soul a human or a beast … On the other side of the Luo Tian star system was the Brilliant Void. In the Brilliant Void, there was a seven-colored cloud. Before the seven-colored cloud, the Seven-Colored Daoist frowned. He looked at the drop of crystal blood in his hand with doubt.
Aside from planet Five Elements, he had searched the entire Brilliant Void. He had searched every inch of space, every cultivation planet, and even every speck of dust. However, in the end, he had found no clues in the Brilliant Void.
While pondering, the Seven-Colored Daoist raised his head and began to ponder.
He remembered seeing the third soul fly toward the Brilliant Void in the illusion within the rift in the Cloud Sea. However, he couldn't tell if it had stopped or passed through the Brilliant Void.
Because at the most critical moment, his illusion was interrupted by Wang Lin and he was forcibly called out.
Thinking about this, the Seven-Colored Daoist's expression became even more gloomy. His hatred for Wang Lin became even stronger.
"Even without the illusion, with the bloodlines of all living beings gathered during the war between the Inner and Outer Realms, I can still find the third soul!
If there isn't one in the Brilliant Void, then I'll go to the Summoned River!
After searching all four star systems, I don't believe the third soul can leave the cave world! "The Seven-Colored Daoist's expression was gloomy as he charged toward the Summoned River.
As he moved forward, he stared at the drop of blood in his hand. This drop of blood didn't change at all, but the Seven-Colored Daoist knew that it contained the bloodlines of all living beings. If it encountered the reincarnation cycle of living beings in the cave world, it wouldn't change at all, but if it encountered the reincarnation cycle of living beings outside the cave world, it would give off a blinding red glow.
However, the range of this drop was not large, and there was only one drop left. It would take the Seven-Colored Daoist a lot of time, but he had waited for countless years, so this little bit of time was nothing to him.
At this moment, the Seven-Colored Daoist arrived at the Summoned River and began a strict search.
Under this kind of search, the third soul couldn't hide at all. It wouldn't be long before the biggest secret of the cave world would be revealed!
Also searching for the third soul was Wang Lin!
Wang Lin sat on the mountain and his divine sense spread out. The moment it shrouded the Celestial Realm, he found Shimizu in a wooden pavilion in a valley in the northwest.
Red Butterfly was also here with Qing Shui. The father and daughter were living peacefully in the valley.
Right now, Shimizu was smiling at Red Butterfly and giving her pointers on some areas of her cultivation. Red Butterfly was talented, so she understood a lot.
"Cultivators focus on intent, focus on the heart … Also …" As Shimizu spoke, his eyes narrowed and he looked at the sky outside the house. There was a flash of complicated emotion in his eyes, and a moment later, he stood up.
"Die Er, you cultivate by yourself. Your father has some matters to deal with."
With that, Qing Shui took a step forward. His figure turned into a shadow and disappeared from the room.
Red Butterfly looked at the direction her father disappeared to and revealed a hint of worry. After pondering for a bit, she let out a sigh and closed her eyes. She calmly began to cultivate.
Ripples echoed on the mountain where Wang Lin was and Shimizu walked out.
"Senior Brother Shimizu, help me find the third soul!" Wang Lin stood up and clasped his hands at Shimizu.
Shimizu silently pondered and arrived next to Wang Lin. His expression was complicated, and after a long time, he softly said, "You know my identity …"
Wang Lin looked at Shimizu and nodded.
"Back in the Seven-Colored Realm, you didn't ask me if I found the answer. In truth, I found it. I know that I'm just a soul … Forgive me for not telling you this … I can't say it, and I don't want to admit it." Shimizu closed his eyes and sat down before Wang Lin.
Shimizu murmured, "Do it. I don't know what method you will use, but I will do my best to help you!"
"I only know that Senior Brother Shimizu is one of the seven souls. I can't guess who the other six are … But Senior Brother can rest assured. No matter what, I won't allow the three souls to devour the seven souls!
Once I find the third soul, I will kill it and take the soul seal! "
Wang Lin raised his right hand and pointed to the spot between his eyebrows. The ghostly face that he had fused with suddenly appeared and rapidly expanded. It turned into a giant ghostly face that floated above the two of them.
The ghostly face was ferocious and let out a silent roar as it charged at Wang Lin and Shimizu. It opened its mouth and instantly devoured the two of them!
The moment the two of them were devoured, Wang Lin and Shimizu's minds rumbled like Thunder. Their divine senses entered the time when the Seven-Colored Celestial Sovereign's three souls and seven souls were split!
Find the third soul!!!
Third chapter to make up for it!
I owe a bit more than two chapters in total. I'll try to make it up in the next few days!
