After hearing Zhou Wutai's worried analysis, Wang Lin pondered for a long time. The Four Sect Alliance wasn't his home, but he had lived in this street for more than 30 years.
He was currently standing outside the shop, looking at the snowflakes in the sky and letting out a sigh.
The last thing Zhou Wutai said in the jade was: "In order to find out if planet Xue Yue really has the intention of destroying the country, the Four Sect Alliance has sent out three groups of cultivators. One group will go to the nearby rank 4 cultivation countries to find allies, one group will go to the rank 5 cultivation countries to find reinforcements, and the last group will go to country of Suzaku to find out what is going on."
By the time the jade was sent out, all three groups besides the group that went to the country of Rosefinch had returned.
However, the answer made the people of the Four Sect Alliance completely silent.
Most of the neighboring countries politely welcomed the people of the Four Sect Alliance, but none of them said anything about the war. They just wanted to delay it.
Some of them even closed their countries and avoided them.
Finally, one of the neighboring countries that had good relations with the Four Sect Alliance came out of sympathy and said that the rank 5 cultivation countries that went to the country of Xue Yue were not allowed to participate.
As for the other group that went to the Four Sect Alliance's rank 5 cultivation countries, they came back with gloomy faces. They told them that they didn't need to hand over the Rain Cauldron and that the rank 5 cultivation countries wouldn't participate.
In the end, this group of cultivators paid a great price to get a piece of shocking news from a Soul Transformation cultivator from a rank 5 cultivation country.
Xue Yue had produced a woman with amazing talent. Even the country of Rosefinch was shocked by her talent. She only used 100 years to reach the peak of the late stage of Soul Formation and was known as the most talented person in the last 10,000 years of Rosefinch.
If that was it, it wouldn't be a big deal, but in the 100 years she had been cultivating, she hadn't taken any pills. As a result, she attracted even more attention.
The Kingdom of Rosefinch had already sent out cultivators to investigate the matter, and after confirming the truth, they invited them to join the Kingdom of Rosefinch.
This kind of thing was not rare in Suzaku. Often, some extremely talented people would be noticed by the Rosefinch Country at the most brilliant time of their lives and become cultivators of the country.
However, when these people first joined the Rosefinch Country, their statuses were not very high. However, the Rosefinch Country had made the decision to give the young lady from the Snow Region an extremely high status.
The reason the country of Rosefinch is doing this is to break through the gap that they haven't been able to make in countless years and become a rank 7 cultivation country. However, to reach rank 7, aside from having cultivators at a higher cultivation level, they also need to prepare a series of other things. The difficulty is very high.
Right now, the country of Rosefinch hasn't even met the first requirement, so they naturally paid more attention to the talented people that appeared on Suzaku.
And this girl from Snow Region's talent had already reached a terrifying level, so the country of Suzaku was determined to win her over.
The only reason the girl agreed to join the country of Rosefinch was for Xue Yu to become a rank 5 cultivation country and leave the barren land of Xue Yu to find another country on Suzaku.
It just so happened that the Rain Cauldron appeared in the Four Sect Alliance. According to the final analysis, this Rain Cauldron belonged to a cultivator from Xue Yu, which led to this battle.
The Four Sect Alliance could only say that Xue Yu had chosen this place during the battle for the Rain Cauldron and they were prepared to choose this place as their new home.
As for why the Rain Cauldron appeared in the Four Sect Alliance and why it was in the hands of the prince, the Four Sect Alliance believed that it was a trap.
However, whether or not it was a trap couldn't change the reality.
After this news was brought back by this group of cultivators, the entire Four Sect Alliance was shaken.
Wang Lin had already read all of Zhou Wutai's jade. His mood was a bit heavy. He didn't think that there would be such a deep story hidden in this simple battle for the Rain Cauldron.
He looked at the nearly empty shops on the street and sighed inwardly. A few months ago, there were many people on this street. Every morning, there would be a shop opening for business, and it was extremely lively. But now, because of the war between the two countries, the mortals were greatly affected.
Wang Lin let out a sigh. At this moment, he was deeply moved. In the eyes of cultivators, mortals were even lower than ants. However, these cultivators had forgotten that they were once mortals.
Wang Lin couldn't stop this from happening and he didn't want to participate in it. The Grand Dao was ruthless, and after experiencing the reincarnation cycle, Wang Lin's state of mind had quietly changed. He looked at the street and softly said, "It's time to leave … After finishing the last step, I'll leave …" With that, he shook his head, turned around, and gently closed the door.
Then he put on a thick coat and a leather hat and walked off into the distance. His figure gradually became blurry until he disappeared into the snow.
Wang Lin's body looked slow in the sky, but in reality, he was flying very fast. As he flew, he saw countless cultivators. These people passed by him with gloomy expressions. It was as if this snowy day was like a giant rock weighing down on their hearts.
In fact, they rarely conversed with one another. Even for those who were familiar with one another, they would only nod their heads slightly when they passed each other.
Wang Lin flew for a long time before arriving at the eastern side of the Four Sect Alliance. This place used to be a dense forest.
But now, there were no longer any trees in sight. There was only a snowy plain.
This snow field was like a giant mountain compared to the empty land that had been cleared.
Waves of cold air came from the snow field and gave off a feeling of despair.
Wang Lin quietly floated in the air as he looked at the snow field below him. After pondering for a long time, he let out a sigh and his hands formed seals. A strange wind appeared and blew across the snow field, creating waves of sobbing sounds.
At this moment, it was as if the entire world was filled with this heart-wrenching cry … The snow was still falling, and the wind was still blowing. It was as if the vast and empty Heavenly Dao was endless … However, this snow was extremely strange. Although the wind was strong, not much snow was blown out.
Luckily, Wang Lin's goal wasn't to clear this forest.
Wang Lin's face didn't reveal any signs of anxiousness. He quietly stood in the air with a calm gaze.
Gradually, a whirlpool 100 feet wide appeared on the snow field. The snow inside the whirlpool was slowly pushed to the sides.
Wang Lin had been standing in the air for a long time. Some of the cultivators flying in the sky started to pay attention to him.
In the end, the whirlpool on the snow field became larger and larger until it formed a giant pit. There were many tree branches at the bottom of the pit.
Wang Lin looked at it and his hand seal disappeared. His body immediately sank into the whirlpool. There were many tree branches within this 100 feet area. These were the materials for his wood carving.
The pieces of wood he collected 30 years ago were almost all used up. They weren't enough for him to carve one last time before he left. That was why he had traveled tens of thousands of miles to this place to find Mu Yin.
This time, Wang Lin had strict requirements for the wood he needed. It had to be at least 100 years old. Of course, if it was 1,000 years old, the effect would be even better.
Unfortunately, wanting to find this kind of wood in this land covered in snow and ice was like finding a needle in a haystack.
Inside the whirlpool, Wang Lin spread out his divine sense and locked onto some tree branches. He broke them off and put them into his bag of holding. After a long time, he flew into the air and once again used a spell.
Gradually, more and more whirlpools appeared and more and more wood appeared in Wang Lin's bag of holding. This process lasted for seven days!
During these seven days, the entire plain had been completely cleared. After collecting enough wood, Wang Lin looked at this place and then left.
During these seven days, his actions had been reported to the Four Sect Alliance by the cultivators nearby. Some of them had come to investigate, but after discovering Wang Lin's cultivation level, they immediately became respectful.
Finally, Zhou Wutai found out about this matter. He immediately used his authority to suppress this matter. After pondering a bit, he personally brought people here. He didn't say anything and just silently helped.
Otherwise, in just seven days, Wang Lin wouldn't be able to collect enough wood, nor would he be able to clear the entire plain.
Before leaving, Zhou Wutai didn't invite Wang Lin to join the Four Sect Alliance again. He bitterly clasped his hands and left with his people.
Zhou Wutai knew that the Four Sect Alliance had reached the end of its road. At this moment, letting someone join was the same as sending them to their death. Even he was thinking about his own path.
Wang Lin nodded at Zhou Wutai and left.
He didn't stop and went straight to the shop in the capital. After a long time, his body flashed and disappeared. When he reappeared, he was already inside the shop.
He took a deep breath, looked around, and sat down on a chair. He flipped his left hand and took out a piece of wood that still had some snow on it. He placed his right index and middle fingers together and began to carve.
This was a carving that Wang Lin had prepared for a long time. This time, he wasn't going to carve just one item, but countless.
Before he left, Wang Lin's path of becoming a mortal had come to an end. He was going to use this final carving to increase his cultivation level to the Soul Formation stage.
Even if he failed in the end, he wanted to increase his state of mind. This way, he would be one step closer to the Soul Formation stage!
He only needed to choose a Heavenly Dao to comprehend and he would be able to reach the Soul Formation stage!
What he was going to carve was every person he had killed from the day he started cultivating to the day he turned into a mortal!
Every single person!
