Wang Lin waved his right hand and the door to the shop silently opened. A tall figure wearing a raincoat appeared outside the shop.
This person was covered in a thick layer of snow. He didn't say anything as he walked into the shop.
Wang Lin looked at this person and calmly said, "It's been more than 10 years since we last met. Fellow cultivator, how have you been?"
The person laughed and took off his raincoat, revealing a dignified face. His ears were very prominent. This person was the large-eared cultivator, Zhou Wutai.
He shook the cloak in his hand and the snowflakes on it immediately fell off. A gentle breeze blew them outside, so not a single snowflake landed in Wang Lin's shop.
After putting the raincoat to the side, Zhou Wutai walked to the chair opposite of Wang Lin and sat down. The moment he sat down, the door silently closed.
After Zhou Wutai sat down, he grabbed the jug of wine that Wang Lin had placed on the side. He didn't even pick up a cup; instead, he took a big gulp.
Wang Lin looked at him. Compared to 10 years ago, there were a few more wrinkles between Zhou Wutai's eyebrows. It was clear that something had happened to him in the past 10 years. As for his cultivation, it had also increased, but it was still a bit weaker than Wang Lin's.
After all, the reincarnation cycle that Wang Lin had experienced gave him a deeper level of comprehension.
The large-eared cultivator, Zhou Wutai, drank a big gulp of wine and suddenly stared at the three wooden carvings on the shelf not far away. These three carvings were of the three people from the White Cloud Sect. When Zhou Wutai came, there were only two carvings, but now there was one more.
His gaze landed on the extra wooden carving and gradually revealed a shocked expression. He waved his right hand and the wooden carving landed in his hand. He carefully examined it for a long time before gently putting it down. He looked at Wang Lin with a complicated expression.
After a long time, he lightly sighed and bitterly smiled, "Brother Wang, you are indeed one step faster than me. I have been walking in the same spot for more than ten years …" Wang Lin's expression was calm. With a flip of his right hand, another jug of wine appeared. After drinking a mouthful, he shook his head and said, "It's just a coincidence!"
Zhou Wutai let out a sigh. He looked down at the wood carving and slowly said, "Martial Uncle Qing Song's Flowing Time Domain has been carved by you. This wood carving is equivalent to a top magical treasure in the Nascent Soul Stage. Ten years ago, Brother Wang couldn't have done this. It's only been ten years, and you've made such progress. I'm impressed!"
Wang Lin smiled and said, "If you like it, I'll give it to you!"
Zhou Wutai was startled. The complicated expression in his eyes became even stronger. He looked at Wang Lin, then at the wood carving. After hesitating for a bit, he took out a piece of jade from his bag of holding and gently placed it to the side. He said, "Thank you!"
His hostility towards Wang Lin lessened a bit. To be able to casually give such a treasure to someone else, this kind of mentality was not something an ordinary person could have. He believed that with this wood carving, even if he couldn't truly comprehend the Flowing Time Domain, he would still be able to comprehend it a bit.
However, the only thing he was struggling with was how to choose. After all, the comprehension he had chosen was very different from the Flowing Time Domain on the wood carving. As a result, he couldn't help but feel conflicted.
After a long time, his body suddenly stopped and he raised his head to look at Wang Lin. He bitterly smiled and said, "Brother Wang, I admit defeat!
Don't always let me have other thoughts. Ai, I don't want this wood carving anymore. I'll give this piece of jade to you as well. It contains a Soul Formation spell. "
A strange light appeared in Wang Lin's eyes as he carefully looked at Zhou Wutai. There was a hidden meaning in giving this person the wood carving, but this person immediately reacted and gave up the chance to comprehend the Flowing Time Domain. Instead, he maintained his original path of becoming a mortal. This kind of person was something that Wang Lin hadn't seen many times in his life.
He smiled and nodded. "Since that's the case, it would be impolite of me, Wang." With that, he picked up the piece of jade, scanned it with his divine sense, and calmly placed it to the side.
Zhou Wutai reluctantly glanced at the wood carving. He clenched his teeth and forced himself not to look at it anymore. Instead, his expression darkened and he said, "Brother Wang, do you find anything strange about the heavy snow these days?"
Wang Lin pondered a little. He looked at the wine jug in his hand and slowly said, "This snow isn't made of heavenly power …"
Zhou Wutai's eyes lit up and he said, "That's right. This snow contains killing intent. Right now, the entire Four Sect Alliance is covered in this snow, so the killing intent is very strong."
Wang Lin's expression was still the same. It was as if this had nothing to do with him. He just quietly listened.
Zhou Wutai looked at Wang Lin and continued, "Several seniors of the Four Sects have come out to investigate. In the end, they found a single transfer array that was hidden by a restriction 10,000 kilometers above the Xue Yu Cultivation Land!"
"Xue Yue cultivators?" This was the first time Wang Lin had heard of this.
Zhou Wutai took a deep breath and said, "Xue Yue is also a rank 4 cultivation country. However, it is located in the northern part of the country. That area is covered in snow and ice. Their techniques are often related to snow and ice. This is why whenever Xue Yue invades another cultivation country, they will first use this transfer array to cover their country in snow and ice. Then they will send out a large force."
After Zhou Wutai finished speaking, he waved his right hand and the door to the shop opened. He grabbed a snowflake and brought it before Wang Lin. At the same time, his left hand formed a seal and a fist-sized fireball appeared, releasing waves of heat.
"Brother Wang, please look!"
As he spoke, he pressed the fireball and the snowflake together. In an instant, the fireball let out bursts of smoke and was extinguished. However, the snowflake didn't melt at all.
Wang Lin was shocked. This was something he didn't expect.
Zhou Wutai's voice was very low. "This snow can't melt … When the entire Four Sect Alliance is covered in snow, that will be the day Xue Yue attacks."
Wang Lin pondered and didn't say anything.
Zhou Wutai sincerely said, "Brother Wang, I came here today to represent the Four Sect Alliance to invite you to join us. With your cultivation level, once you join, you will be a great help to the Four Sect Alliance."
Wang Lin looked at this person and slowly said, "I'm only a Nascent Soul cultivator. There are many people in the Four Sect Alliance with higher cultivation levels than Wang, so I'm not one of them.
Zhou Wutai bitterly smiled and shook his head. "Brother Wang, don't underestimate yourself. With your current cultivation level, once you reach the Soul Formation stage in a few years, the Four Sect Alliance will have another Soul Formation cultivator. That is why I'm here to invite you."
Wang Lin pondered a bit and suddenly said, "Why do Xue Yue cultivators want to fight the Four Sect Alliance?"
