Wang Lin hid in the snow mountain and frowned. If this was all the Xue Yu cultivators had, then the Four Sect Alliance would definitely win this battle. However, he still had a strange sense of danger.
After pondering for a while, his eyes suddenly lit up. His Divine Sense detected that five thousand kilometers away from the Black Soul Sect, the five-elemental Earth Spirit was rapidly flying in his direction. Behind the Earth Spirit was the young man holding the brush. His eyes were still closed as he casually chased after it. Every time he waved the brush in his hand, the Earth Spirit would tremble, and the black aura would grow thicker.
When Wang Lin saw this, he began to struggle in his heart. After a while, his eyes lit up and without a word, he quietly left the mountain and charged toward where the Earth Spirit came from.
He got closer and closer. 8,000 kilometers, 7,000 kilometers, 5,000 kilometers, 3,000 kilometers …. When he was 3,000 kilometers away, Wang Lin's body suddenly disappeared. When he reappeared, he was 2,000 kilometers away. The moment he reappeared, he hit his forehead and spat out a large, black seal.
The moment the seal appeared, it released waves of killing intent. Strands of remnant souls began to gather within the killing intent.
Wang Lin pointed with his right hand and the black stamp slowly flew into the air and disappeared.
At the same time, Wang Lin took a deep breath and his hands quickly formed seals. Restrictions flew out from his hands and landed around him. Then he slapped his bag of holding and the restriction flag appeared in his hand. He shook it and a black fog appeared, but in the blink of an eye, the black fog disappeared without a trace.
Just as he finished doing all of this, the earth spirit arrived.
The Earth Spirit was in a sorry state. When it saw Wang Lin, it didn't consider him a threat. Although it was seriously injured, it could easily kill a late stage Nascent Soul cultivator with its peak late stage Soul Formation cultivation.
From its point of view, Wang Lin didn't have the qualifications to make it wary.
The moment it arrived, the earth spirit waved its hand and a wave of earth energy rushed toward Wang Lin. The moment it touched him, he coughed out a mouthful of blood.
The Nascent Soul in his body trembled and almost collapsed.
The earth spirit frowned, but it didn't stop. However, at this moment, the blood that Wang Lin coughed out turned into a blood mist that dissipated into the sky.
At the same time, a large amount of black fog appeared. Strands of restriction aura came from the black fog and surrounded the earth spirit. Shortly after, eight black restriction rings appeared around the earth spirit. The restriction aura and the restriction flag formed a giant cage that trapped the earth spirit.
Wang Lin quickly backed up and his eyes lit up. He knew that with his cultivation level, he wouldn't be able to resist the Earth Spirit, but he didn't want to personally fight. He only needed to delay it for a bit and wait for the young man to catch up. Then the result would be decided.
The earth spirit noticed Wang Lin's intention. It let out a roar and charged toward the black fog. It didn't care about the restriction aura coming at it at all.
This was indeed the case. As soon as the restriction aura entered the earth spirit's body, it immediately disappeared as if it had been smelled by a fragrance.
After the earth spirit's first attack, the black fog from the restriction flag was reduced by more than half and a crisp cracking sound could be heard.
Wang Lin immediately felt his heart ache. He knew that cracks had appeared on the restriction flag.
The earth spirit became enraged and charged forward again. This time, the black fog completely disappeared. Although the restriction flag didn't break, there were even more cracks on it.
Wang Lin's eyes lit up. Just as the earth spirit was about to charge forward for the third time, the young man with the brush finally arrived. His eyes were still closed. His right hand, under the control of the brush, seemed to be moving very slowly, but was actually moving at an extremely fast speed.
Suddenly, the earth spirit let out a miserable shriek. The black fog from its body crazily came out. Its entire body immediately withered. Its eyes were filled with unwillingness and it was about to charge forward again.
Wang Lin secretly sighed. His right hand pointed at the sky. Suddenly, a black seal appeared and ruthlessly pressed down. Killing intent rushed out, mixed with countless souls. It was as if the sky was collapsing.
The earth spirit's expression was ferocious. Its body suddenly turned into black mud and moved toward the black seal.
At this moment, the young man opened his eyes, and a strange glow could be seen in his eyes. The brush in his hand moved once again, and this time, the black soil of the Earth Spirit was reduced by more than half. The momentum of the Earth Spirit couldn't help but pause for a moment.
As the black seal pressed down, the earth spirit let out another miserable shriek. The black mud once again condensed back into its human form. However, it was now in a semi-transparent state, as if it could be blown away by the wind.
Its eyes revealed a look of despair. As it watched the young man raise his hand and the brush in his hand, Wang Lin immediately charged forward. In the blink of an eye, he entered the restriction flag. He pointed at his brow and a powerful suction force appeared. The earth spirit was pulled into Wang Lin's brow by this suction force.
After being sucked into the heaven defying bead, Wang Lin didn't have time to check it. He took a deep breath and the black seal returned to his body. At the same time, the restriction flag disappeared into his bag of holding.
All of this was done very quickly. Without any hesitation, he shouted, "Junior is a disciple of the White Cloud Sect. My master is Qing Song!"
With that, his divine sense controlled the statue of the old man inside his bag of holding. Suddenly, his body emitted a passing aura and he turned around to escape.
The young man coldly stared at Wang Lin. He didn't swing the brush in his hand again. After a long time, he turned around and left.
Wang Lin flew for thousands of miles in fear before he stopped. He sensed that the young man had already left and let out a sigh of relief.
As the saying goes, seeking riches comes with risks. This time, Wang Lin had taken a huge risk to steal the earth spirit from the young man's mouth. He had made up his mind that he wouldn't take any more risks to obtain the other five elemental spirits. It was too dangerous. If he was even the slightest bit careless, he would end up dead.
Furthermore, the restriction flag had been damaged, which made him feel a great heartache.
Hiding in a snowy peak, Wang Lin checked the heaven defying bead. He found that the earth element had been completed. Now, only the metal and wood elements were left. Then, the heaven defying bead would be able to complete the five elements!
At that moment, the ground suddenly shook. Following that, numerous ice sculptures with human heads and snake bodies emerged from the ground with a series of rumbling sounds.
These ice sculptures were the mysterious things that Wang Lin had found hidden under the ground.
One by one, the ice sculptures rose from the ground, breaking through the layer of snow and standing tall on top of the accumulated snow. If one were to look down from the sky, one would see that these countless ice sculptures formed a diagram.
This pattern was exactly the same as the human-headed snake bodies on the ice sculptures.
After the ice sculptures appeared, they immediately began to shine brightly. At the same time, the ice sculptures began to rise from the ground. All of the ice sculptures within the Four Sect Alliance moved at an unimaginable speed. In the blink of an eye, all of the cracks in the sky, aside from the one in the middle, silently disappeared.
Following that, a thick, dark blue aura came from the giant crack in the sky. This aura spread out and covered a radius of thousands of miles.
Some of the cultivators from the Four Sect Alliance weren't able to dodge in time and were touched by this dark blue aura. They immediately turned into ice sculptures and fell from the sky.
Even the Nascent Soul within his body was eroded by the dark blue aura and became motionless in almost an instant.
This strange scene shocked all of the cultivators from the Four Sect Alliance.
Following that, the ice sculptures that were floating in the air began to melt strangely. In just a few moments, they had all disappeared, as if they had never been there in the first place.
The instant they disappeared, a majestic pressure slowly spread out from the deep blue aura within the huge crack. A snake-like creature the size of a small mountain slowly descended from the crack.
As soon as this item appeared, the deep blue aura became even denser. Clouds surged and spread out in all directions. No matter what it was, anything that came into contact with this aura turned into ice.
Wang Lin sucked in a breath of cold air. Without a word, he charged out from the mountain of snow once more. He let out a sigh and quickly left. Less than three breaths after he left the mountain of snow, the mountain of snow was surrounded by a dark blue aura and turned into a mountain of ice.
At this moment, half of the snake's body had already descended. From the waist up, one could see that it had a human body. In truth, when the monster descended, Wang Lin had already guessed that this was the beast carved on the ice sculpture.
Although he had already notified Zhou Wutai about this, whether or not Zhou Wutai had taken any action was not something that Wang Lin cared about.
Wang Lin's body quickly moved on the ground. It wasn't until the dark blue aura stopped spreading that he stopped. He looked up at the sky with a gloomy expression and silently pondered.
At this moment, Zhou Wutai, who was standing on top of the Azure Dragon, let out a light snort. Suddenly, the Azure Dragon under him suddenly moved. With a series of rumbling sounds, the Azure Dragon's body flew up from the ground. It opened its mouth that looked like it could burn the heavens and the earth as it tried to devour the human-headed snake that was descending.
The dark blue aura seemed to have no effect on the dragon and was directly broken through by it.
However, just as the dragon was about to devour the snake, a cold and clear voice came from the crack in the sky. "Sir Messenger, your country of Rosefinch has agreed to help me once. Now, please kill this dragon!"
At the same time, a black-haired lady wearing a white canvas dress slowly walked out from the crack. This lady's teeth were like braided shells, and she was graceful and graceful. There was not much coldness on her body, but there was a stubborn glint in her eyes. Clearly, she was a person with an extremely firm will.
When this woman appeared, even the dumbest person could tell that she was very different from the woman that was killed by the Four Sect Alliance.
It was like comparing the moon to a firefly.
After the woman appeared, she immediately raised her right hand. Suddenly, from the north, south, east, and west of the Four Sect Alliance, four rays of light suddenly flew over. They were the four spirits of metal, wood, water, and fire.
"One is missing?" The woman frowned.
"I'll be thick-skinned and say, vote for Shi San and let me reach fourth, okay?"
