As for the remaining two, one of them ran in the direction of Zhou Wutai.
As for the other one, he ran in the opposite direction.
Wang Lin's eyes were cold as he casually looked at Zhou Wutai. Then, he took a step forward. One step, two steps, three steps, four steps … ten steps!
Ten steps to kill one person!
Wang Lin only used ten steps to catch up to the terrified man in black. His eyes revealed a mysterious light and he let out a sigh.
"You ruined my state of mind, only death awaits you!"
With that, he casually flicked his right hand forward. Immediately, the Ji Realm turned into a red bolt of lightning that caught up to the cultivator and entered his body.
He didn't even have time to let out a cry before his body trembled and he fell from the sky. When he landed, he landed in the deep snow in front of Daniu's ironware shop.
His nascent soul didn't have time to escape and was destroyed by the Ji Realm.
Although Wang Lin's Ji Realm couldn't break through before he obtained Suzaku's treasure and couldn't kill Soul Formation cultivators, it was more than enough to kill Nascent Soul cultivators!
After killing three people in a row, Wang Lin turned around and looked at where Zhou Wutai was.
Although Zhou Wutai's expression was normal, his back was drenched in sweat. When he saw Wang Lin's gaze, he didn't hesitate at all. He raised his right hand and stopped the man in black.
The man in black panicked and shouted, "Zhou Wutai, what are you doing!?"
Zhou Wutai calmly looked at this person and smiled. He softly said, "The four of you offended Brother Wang. How can I let you leave?"
Then, his left hand formed a strange seal and a purple light appeared in his hand. At this moment, the difference between a late stage Nascent Soul cultivator and a fake Nascent Soul cultivator was obvious.
Zhou Wutai's cultivation level was only one step lower than Wang Lin's. He was also half a step into the Soul Formation stage and had mastered some domains. The moment Zhou Wutai's hand seal appeared, the Nascent Soul cultivator was startled. He felt like he had returned to his youth and saw his master who had led him into the cultivation sect.
Although he knew that it was all fake, the feeling was incomparably real. An irresistible will suddenly filled his body. By the time he reacted, Zhou Wutai's hand was already on the top of his head. Spiritual power surged out of the man's mouth, and he fell to the ground dead.
As for his Nascent Soul, Zhou Wutai grabbed it and crushed it in front of Wang Lin.
He was using his actions to tell Wang Lin that he had not participated in today's matter, and that no one would know about it in the future. Otherwise, he wouldn't have killed him to silence him.
Wang Lin's clean killing of three people in a row completely stunned this arrogant person. If it was one of the four men in black, he was confident he could kill them. Even if it was two, he could barely win.
However, if it was three, then the most he could do was tie. If it was four, then he could only run away. However, Wang Lin had so easily killed three people in a row. How could Zhou Wutai not be shocked?
Wang Lin's body slowly descended from the sky. The moment he landed on the snow, his entire body seemed to wither. From a fiend, he once again became a mortal, and a mortal in his twilight years.
He straightened his clothes, took a sip of wine, and threw it at Zhou Wutai. Then, he turned around and walked back to the shop. Right now, he was no different from a mortal.
Zhou Wutai caught the wine jug and was silent for a long time. He looked at the house that Wang Lin was in with fear. He made up his mind that this person could only be a friend, not an enemy!
He waved his sleeve and the bodies of the four men in black on the street immediately turned to dust. Then, his body moved and he quickly left the street.
From the time Wang Lin walked out of the shop to the time he returned, he had used a very short amount of time. Adding on his deliberate actions, not a single mortal in the surroundings noticed what had happened.
At this moment, he returned to the shop and sat on a chair next to the stove. His entire body was covered in a thick layer of twilight. He stretched out his hands and placed them on top of the stove to warm himself.
He quietly sat in the shop and quickly searched through the memories of the ancient god Tu Si. Gradually, the information about the Wind, Cloud, Thunder, and Lightning Four Immortal Sects became clearer in his mind.
At this moment, the sound of the wind and snow outside suddenly quieted down. The door of the shop was pushed open by a gust of wind. Then, the smell of roasted chicken rushed out.
At the same time, the dirty old man, who hadn't appeared for a long time, quickly walked in while trembling. After entering the shop, he kicked the back with his right foot and closed the door of the shop. Then, he quickly walked to the stove next to Wang Lin and cursed, "It's the middle of the night and I ran into a fight between a few brats. How can I sleep?
I don't know which bastard actually smashed it on me. It wasn't easy for this old man to find a place to sleep. What bad luck! "
Wang Lin smiled. He flipped his right hand and another wine jug appeared in his hand. He handed it to the old man.
After the old man took it, he smiled and took out half a roasted chicken. He said, "Little guy, you're smart. Okay, I'll give you half of this roasted chicken!"
After saying that, he carefully looked at Wang Lin and his eyes revealed a hint of admiration. He said, "Not bad, young man. Your cultivation has improved again. The Soul Formation stage is just around the corner.
Don't forget about the wooden carving you promised me. Otherwise, even if you run to the ends of the earth, this old man will still be able to catch up to you! "
Wang Lin chuckled and said: "I will not forget my promise to Senior."
The old man tore off a chicken leg, took a bite, and said, "Kid, the Four Sect Alliance has been in a mess recently. Hurry up and reach the Soul Formation stage. Otherwise, with your cultivation, you won't be able to get any benefits here."
Wang Lin's heart skipped a beat. He glanced at the old man and said,
"Senior, do you know the reason behind the chaos in the Four Clan Alliance?
The old man proudly raised his chin and looked at Wang Lin. He said, "There is nothing in the cultivation world that this old man doesn't know. It's just that a little guy from the Four Sect Alliance somehow got his hands on a Rain Cauldron from Xue Yu. Xue Yu naturally didn't like it, so they came to steal it. That's all."
"Rain Cauldron …" Wang Lin pondered a bit. He suddenly remembered the dispute between the big-eared cultivator, Zhou Wutai, and the prince from 10 years ago. They mentioned the Rain Cauldron.
The old man quickly finished the chicken leg, tore off a piece of the chicken neck, and said, "Speaking of the Rain Cauldron, there is more than one treasure. I don't know how many there are, but anyone who has this cauldron can enter the Wind, Cloud, Thunder, and Lightning Celestial Sects. That's why they are fighting over it. However, no matter how much they fight over it, it's useless. Once they attract the attention of a rank 5 or 6 cultivation country, the cauldron will belong to them sooner or later."
Wang Lin pondered a bit and slowly said, "Rumor has it that the Wind, Cloud, Thunder, and Lightning Celestial Sects all lead to the Celestial Realm. No wonder everyone is fighting over it."
The old man let out a mischievous laugh and said, "What's wrong, young man? Are you tempted?
However, the ancient celestials all died in a war in ancient times. Right now, the Ancient Celestial Realm is empty. "
Wang Lin was startled. Tu Si didn't have such a record. He hesitated for a bit and asked, "Are they all dead?"
The old man finished eating the chicken neck in two or three bites. He tore off a large piece of meat and said, "Of course they are all dead. Why else do you think cultivators above the Soul Transformation stage are still stuck in this realm? It's because they have nowhere to go."
Wang Lin's heart trembled. Although he already knew that the ancient cultivators died in a catastrophe, which was why the Cultivation Alliance was formed, he didn't think that even the celestials of the Ancient Celestial Realm were all dead.
The old man saw Wang Lin's shock and felt very proud. After eating the chicken, he let out a burp and drank a mouthful of wine. He casually wiped his hand on his clothes and said, "Hehe, shocked, right? The ancient gods are all dead, the ancient celestials are all dead, and there aren't many ancient cultivators left. That's why the Cultivation Alliance was formed and developed using star systems."
Wang Lin pondered a bit as he digested the shocking secret the old man had told him. After a long time, he frowned and said, "Since that is the case, why do the four Celestial Sects still exist?"
The old man let out a mischievous laugh and said, "Although the ancient celestials are dead, the Celestial Realm is still there. However, it is filled with countless storms, and the entire Celestial Realm is divided into countless parts. The four Celestial Sects are only connected to one part of the Celestial Realm. Even so, there are a lot of good things in there, and the most important thing is that there is celestial spiritual energy!"
"Celestial spiritual energy?" Wang Lin's expression changed.
The old man felt emotional and said, "Yes, that thing is much more delicious than roasted chicken …"
Wang Lin bitterly smiled.
The old man licked his lips and said, "To break through from the Soul Formation stage to the Soul Transformation stage, unless one has the rare Soul Transformation Pill, they must absorb enough celestial spiritual energy. Otherwise, they won't be able to break through.
If it was in ancient times, as long as one reached the Soul Formation stage, they would have to ascend to the Celestial Realm. There, they would have to absorb enough celestial spiritual energy to continue cultivating, but now … besides risking their lives to go to the Celestial Realm, there is no other way! "
Wang Lin pondered a bit, then faintly smiled and said, "If that is the case, then this Rain Cauldron is really worth fighting over, especially for those Soul Formation cultivators. Whether it is to increase their own cultivation level or to increase their country's level, they all want this Rain Cauldron!
I wonder if the other three cauldrons will appear? "
The old man picked up the wine jug, took a big gulp, and said, "The Wind, Rain, Thunder, and Lightning Cauldrons appear every few years. Those who can obtain them naturally have great luck.
"The four Celestial Sects cover almost the entire Cultivation Alliance. Depending on which Celestial Sect is closest to each cultivation planet, a different cauldron will appear."
