Du Qing had gone through seven Arcane Tribulants, and although he wasn't at the early stage of Void Tribulant, his strength was still unfathomable. If it wasn't for the fact that Wang Lin had many tricks up his sleeve, it would be very difficult to convince him.
This person was very cautious and was flexible in order to achieve his goals. In order to curry favor with Wang Lin, he used his most powerful spell. There was a flash of purple light and his weight essence spread out.
As the dragon soul roared, it closed in on Du Qing. Its body trembled as if it had suddenly become much heavier. It let out a miserable scream and fell from the sky. It smashed into the ground, struggling and roaring, but unable to break free.
As the child vein dragon soul roared, flames spread uncontrollably from Du Qing's body as if they were going to devour him.
This scene was seen by Wang Lin, and Wang Lin gained a new understanding of Du Qing's weight essence.
Wang Lin no longer paid attention to Du Qing. Aside from splitting a sliver of his divine sense to guard against it, he focused all his attention on the fire dragon that was closing in.
The fire dragon gave off intense heat, and as it closed in, the friction with the aura of the world caused a large amount of black smoke to appear around it. It didn't look like a fire dragon soul, but an Immortal Astral Demon Dragon!
The moment the fire dragon soul rushed at Wang Lin, Wang Lin's white hair fluttered and he stepped forward. His right hand formed a seal and he waved his hand. There was a flash of blood light and the blood sword appeared in Wang Lin's hand. It turned into a ray of heaven-splitting blood light and chopped down on the child vein fire dragon soul!
That slash caused the weather to change. Booming sounds echoed in the air as the blood-red light touched the Fire Dragon's soul. Loud booming sounds rang out, and the Fire Dragon's soul felt pain. It roared and retreated to avoid the blood-red light.
However, the blood light was too strong. Almost at the instant the fire dragon soul retreated, it swept past its body. With a miserable roar, the fire dragon soul's body was cut off by the blood sword!
Thunderous rumbles echoed as the fire dragon soul retreated. There was a flash of coldness in Wang Lin's eyes. He was at the critical moment of forming his essence true body, so he stepped forward without hesitation. His left hand reached at the void and grabbed a part of the child vein dragon soul. He threw it into the fireball.
After the fireball absorbed the Dragon Soul, the flames immediately burned fiercely again, and the Essence True Body that already had four limbs immediately showed signs of forming a body.
Wang Lin moved as fast as lightning. In a flash, he crossed 10,000 feet and appeared above the retreating child vein dragon soul. His movements were as smooth as flowing water. Although he could not suppress the dragon soul with just one essence like Du Qing, his sword was shocking and sharp.
At that moment, Wang Lin raised his right hand above the fire dragon soul. Golden light spread out from his palm, and it caused Du Qing's heart to tremble.
The golden seal surrounded by golden light in Wang Lin's hand was reflected in his pupils!
When the golden seal appeared, forget Du Qing, even the mere dragon soul trembled. Fear appeared in its ferocious eyes. It originally did not want to come here, but Wang Lin had extracted its soul. When it saw the golden seal, its first reaction was to flee. It moved and instantly crossed 100,000 feet. From a distance, it could only be seen as a black dot.
Wang Lin's expression was calm as he pointed at where the fire dragon escaped. There was a flash of golden light and the golden seal flew off into the distance.
Wang Lin didn't even bother to look at the result. He turned to look at the other fire dragon that Du Qing was suppressing.
Just as he turned around, a thunderous rumble that caused the earth to tremble came from the distance. There was a flash of golden light and the golden seal flew back and floated next to Wang Lin. Inside the golden seal was a fire dragon that had shrunk countless times. It struggled and let out a roar of despair.
This scene caused Du Qing's heart to tremble.
"It is indeed worthy of being a treasure made by a Grand Empyrean. This power … Looking at this person's expression, he obviously hasn't used his full power …" Du Qing blinked and quickly smiled. He clasped his hands at Wang Lin.
"Congratulations, Fellow Daoist, on obtaining two child vein dragon souls. This essence true body is almost complete."
Wang Lin shook his head slightly. He didn't speak, but pointed at the golden seal. The dragon soul was surrounded by a golden light and flew toward the fireball.
The fireball absorbed a complete child vein dragon soul. The flames inside the fireball roared, and the four-limbed essence true body was condensing at a speed visible to the naked eye.
However, after half of it had condensed, the fire gradually dimmed and showed signs of extinguishing. Wang Lin frowned and looked at Du Qing.
Du Qing didn't need to say it, but the Heart of Seven Orifices was more or less the same. He immediately understood and pointed at the suppressed child vein dragon soul. The child vein dragon soul struggled and roared as it flew toward the fireball.
It closed in in an instant, and at the instant of contact, a powerful suction force erupted from the three-meter-long fireball, madly absorbing the fire essence within the dragon soul. The dragon soul roared, and in the end, it dissipated, all of it absorbed by the fireball.
After absorbing another child vein dragon soul, the fireball condensed once more. Wang Lin's essence true body immediately condensed. After half an incense stick of time, the body was completely formed!
At this moment, the essence true body inside the fireball had four limbs and a body. Only the head still looked like Rosefinch's. It looked a bit strange.
However, the power of the fire had reached its limit. The fireball suddenly collapsed and turned into sparks that were absorbed by the essence true body.
As the fireball disintegrated, an extremely powerful pressure spread out from the incomplete Origin True Body and enveloped the surroundings. Du Qing wasn't far away, so when he felt this pressure, he felt a chill in his heart.
Even with his cultivation level, he had the urge to retreat. This showed how powerful this essence true body was.
"This isn't even the complete essence true body, but it already has such pressure. Once it's complete …" Du Qing took a deep breath, and his eyes were filled with desire. He also wanted to form his essence true body.
"One hundred and eighty-eight branch veins and three child veins can't form an essence true body … The difficulty of forming an essence true body is too high … With this difficulty, it's no wonder I haven't seen a single essence true body in the cave world. With the resources of the cave world, it's impossible to form one, not even one."
Wang Lin sighed. The difficulty of forming an essence true body made him very emotional.
"The further I go, the more fire essence I will need. I wonder how much fire essence I will need to form this head …" As Wang Lin pondered, the fire essence true body took a step forward and turned into a sea of fire that entered Wang Lin's left eye.
The moment it entered, a shocking change occurred in Wang Lin's left eye. There was no longer the fire mark in his left eye, but a pair of pupils!
Those two pupils gave off an extremely demonic feeling.
After moving his head a bit, Wang Lin walked forward. The moment he moved, a shadow appeared behind him. It seemed to be synchronized with him, but it was impossible to see its appearance.
This sudden change caused Du Qing to suck in a breath of cold air.
"Could this be the change that happens when an essence true body appears? The shadow moves with me!?
I once saw the Great Soul Sect's ancestor in the Great Soul Sect. When he appeared, it was also like this. There seemed to always be a shadow following him.
It was the same no matter where he went. It was even more so when he used his abilities.
Wang Lin frowned and seemed to notice the change in his body after the essence true body formed. He pondered a bit and the shadow behind him faded until it disappeared completely.
"Let's go to the Blue Dragon Sect. I'm going to live there for a while." Wang Lin looked at Du Qing.
When Du Qing heard this, he immediately became excited. He smiled and clasped his hands. "I'm honored. Wang Daoyou, rest assured, I'll definitely mobilize all the disciples to find the earth fire dragon vein. I'll also send the elders of the sect to extract the dragon soul for Fellow Cultivator to cultivate."
Wang Lin's expression didn't reveal any anger and he slowly nodded.
He and Du Qing turned into two beams of light that shot into the distance. Behind the two of them, the Earth Flame Child Vein under the mountain range gradually withered.
In the Heavenly Bull Continent, two rays of light flew across the sky. Du Qing's cultivation level was high, so he was naturally much faster than Wang Lin. As he moved forward, he looked at Wang Lin and a different thought appeared in his mind.
"What exactly is this person's cultivation level … He looks like he's only at the peak of Spirit Void, but he was able to block two of my spells, and he didn't even use his full power … Although his cultivation level can be hidden, his speed is also a standard to judge his cultivation level … Let's see how fast he is!"
Du Qing's expression didn't change as he slowly increased his speed. He surpassed Wang Lin a bit and the distance between them grew larger and larger.
"I can't be too obvious, just a little bit. After all, I still need to rely on this person to get in contact with the Grand Empyrean …" Du Qing didn't dare to go too far. Seeing that Wang Lin couldn't go any faster, he was about to slow down when his pupils suddenly shrank.
Because Wang Lin's cold gaze landed on Du Qing's eyes.
At the same time, Wang Lin waved his right hand and black fog appeared in his hand. A sharp roar came from the black fog.
The howl was ear-piercing, and had the effect of shaking one's mind. Du Qing wasn't too far away, and as soon as he heard the howl, his mind trembled. In fact, he felt as if his body was about to collapse. It was as if the howl contained a peerless, ferocious flame that wanted to rip his body to shreds.
"What kind of fierce beast is this?!" Du Qing's expression suddenly changed.
The mosquito king appeared from the black fog. Its ferocious appearance, its large mouth, its body that had shrunk to the size of a mountain, and the black thorns all shocked Du Qing!
"Fellow Cultivator Du, you're too slow. You need to catch up."
As Wang Lin spoke, he stepped forward and landed on the mosquito king. The mosquito king charged forward and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
It was so fast that Du Qing was shocked once again.
