"Situ …" Wang Lin's eyes focused as he pointed at his brow. Immediately, his body turned into a rainbow color and disappeared.
Inside the heaven defying bead, the strange glowing objects were still the same. Wang Lin didn't even look at them as he walked forward.
Not long after, he arrived at where Situ Nan's nascent soul was.
Beside Situ Nan's nascent soul, his parents' souls emitted a gentle light. This calmed Wang Lin's heart. He first kowtowed to his parents' souls and looked at them for a long time. Then, he looked at Situ Nan's nascent soul.
Situ Nan was sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed. His body wasn't as dim as before, but it wasn't much better. At most, it could be said that he had recovered a bit.
Wang Lin looked at Situ Nan and muttered to himself, "Situ Nan's nascent soul is here. Then why did that person say he was Situ Nan … Could it be someone with the same name? But if that's the case, why did that person also use the Underworld Ascension Technique …" Wang Lin pondered for a while. Then, his eyes focused.
"Situ Nan once said that he fought with a few cultivators who weren't from Suzaku for the heaven defying bead. In the end, his body was destroyed and he had no choice but to give it up. His nascent soul entered the heaven defying bead and escaped the calamity!"
Wang Lin's eyes became brighter and brighter. He thought about the broken arm he saw. The black gas came from the broken arm and the person who called himself Situ Nan also came from the broken arm.
"Could it be that Situ Nan's body was taken and refined by someone and a trace of divine sense was produced?"
Wang Lin made a bold guess, but he wasn't sure. After a long time, he let out a sigh. He looked at Situ Nan's nascent soul and bitterly smiled. "Senior Situ, if that really is your broken arm, then I kind of believe what you told me before about you being the number one cultivator in Suzaku."
Wang Lin shook his head. From the beginning to the end, he had never believed Situ Nan's words. The more he cultivated, the stronger this thought became. The number one expert of Suzaku was the owner of the title Rosefinch.
Unless Situ Nan was Rosefinch back then, there was no way he could be the number one expert.
Moreover, Situ Nan had been in the Heaven Defying Bead for countless years. Even if he really was the number one expert in the past, now that so many years had passed, he might not be as strong anymore.
After a moment of silence, Wang Lin sighed again and walked out of the heaven defying bead.
Xue Yu.
In the Shrine of Ice, in a palace completely made of ice crystals, an extremely ordinary-looking middle-aged man sat on a chair. In front of him was a dark red tea set.
Below him stood two people, one male and one female. Both of them had white hair, and they stood there unmoving.
The middle-aged man picked up a bamboo tube and gently poured some tea leaves into it. His right hand picked up a block of ice and placed it into the teapot. With a tap, the ice immediately melted and began to boil.
A bitter smell immediately rose from the teapot and filled the entire hall.
The middle-aged man picked up the teapot and poured away all the water inside. Then he took out another block of ice and began to boil. This time, a strange fragrance rose and immediately washed away the bitterness in the hall.
The entire hall was enveloped in this fragrance. Even outside the hall, the fragrance didn't disperse.
"Even if you smell the Heavenly Imperial Feather every day, you won't get tired of it. Unfortunately, there is too little of this tea. I only occasionally received some from Rosefinch. You two are quite lucky. Come and have a taste." The middle-aged man picked up the teapot and poured three cups.
There were only three cups of tea left in the teapot.
The two people below quickly picked up a cup and carefully tasted it. However, the old woman was absent-minded. She didn't care that it was hot and drank it all in one gulp. She stared at the middle-aged man and said, "Sect leader, the tea has been finished. Please kill Ceng Niu."
The middle-aged man's heart ached as he watched the old woman ruin the tea. He sighed and said, "That Ceng Niu is only a small character. If it wasn't for the fact that Mount Suzaku sent a message to not let anyone touch him, someone would have already taken his life.
The old woman raised her head and said, "But he dared to cut off Red Butterfly's arm. Red Butterfly is the hope of Xue Yu. Sect leader, don't forget that the reason you were able to reach the Soul Transformation stage was because of Red Butterfly."
As for the old man next to her, he lowered his head and drank his tea without saying a word.
The middle-aged man's eyes became cold. He stared at the old woman and slowly said, "I won't forget, but I don't need you to remind me."
The old woman remained silent. After a long time, she said, "Sect leader, please do something."
The middle-aged man picked up the cup, took a sip, and said,
"This Ceng Niu has a thunder toad beast, a pair of bells, a small flag that can transform into countless restrictions, and an indestructible flying sword. In addition, according to Liao Fan's latest news, this Ceng Niu has also mastered the cultivation method of the Yellow Springs Path. These are all secondary. The most important thing is that this Ceng Niu has an item in his hand. Although it's just a small flag, it has an aura that can destroy everything."
The old woman was startled. Her eyes lit up and she said, "So the sect leader has been investigating this person."
The middle-aged man nodded and said, "How could I not pay attention to someone who was chosen by Rosefinch and challenged to fight against Red Butterfly? The name of Rosefinch will belong to Red Butterfly in the future. How could I let others destroy it?
I sent Liao Fan with my treasure to investigate and he found out a few things. "
The old woman respectfully lowered her head and no longer spoke.
The middle-aged man took another sip of tea and slowly said, "However, now is not the time to kill him. We have to wait until after his battle with Red Butterfly. At that time, no matter if he wins or loses, I will personally kill him. Also, this person is very good at escaping. My friend in the Giant Demon Clan sent me news that the Giant Demon Clan's star compass is in his hands.
With this plate, Ceng Niu will be able to tear space and enter the void. Aside from late Soul Transformation cultivators, no one will be able to catch him. "The middle-aged man took another sip of tea and slowly said.
The old woman frowned. She raised her head and asked, "What does the sect leader mean?"
The middle-aged man calmly said, "If we want to kill him, we must succeed in one go. If I make a move, he will definitely escape. Once I make a move, I will first set up a formation to prevent him from tearing open space. Then, I will ask the Giant Demon Clan to help. That way, with two Soul Transformation cultivators, no matter how powerful this person is, a mere Soul Formation cultivator will be able to easily kill him!
If I don't make a move, then I must succeed! "
The middle-aged man calmly said.
The respect on the old woman's face became even stronger.
At this moment, the old man put down his teacup and smiled.
"A mere mid stage Soul Formation cultivator. Aren't we making a big deal out of nothing?"
The middle-aged man faintly smiled and said, "Do you know what his domain is?"
The middle-aged man revealed a hint of regret. "According to the information from Red Butterfly, this person's domain is the comprehension of life and death under the cycle of reincarnation. To be able to comprehend such a domain, even a Soul Formation cultivator cannot be underestimated."
The old woman pondered and let out a sigh in her heart. In truth, the reason she strongly advocated killing this Ceng Niu was because she read Red Butterfly's divination.
She was worried that this calamity would fall on Ceng Niu!
Spring passed and autumn came. In the blink of an eye, five years had passed.
Zhou Ru was already ten years old. The little girl was becoming more and more slender and elegant, but her temperament was becoming wilder and wilder. She had long lost interest in feeding the white-clothed female corpse porridge in the pagoda. Although she would occasionally think about it, she no longer fed it.
The surrounding mountains were filled with her footprints. Although she was still young, she was very brave. The tigers and wild beasts in the mountains were often harassed by her.
Of course, with her ability, she couldn't threaten the tigers and wild beasts. Tie Yan came to the valley four years ago. He was at the final stage of the Soul Formation stage, but he was stuck at the Cloud Sky Sect. Thus, he gave up everything and followed Wang Lin.
With him by her side, little Zhou Ru became more arrogant and had a lot of fun playing every day.
In these five years, Wang Lin consolidated the spiritual energy in his body and finally reached the mid stage of the Soul Formation stage. Unfortunately, no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't move forward.
Wang Lin knew that he had reached a bottleneck in his cultivation. If he couldn't break through, then his cultivation would be stuck for the rest of his life.
In these five years, there were fewer and fewer challengers, but Ceng Niu's fame became more and more famous. He became a popular topic of discussion among the cultivators.
Today was the 10 year deadline that he made with the country of Rosefinch. Today was the day of the battle with Red Butterfly.
Half a year ago, a cultivator from the country of Rosefinch was ordered to come here and set up a transfer array. This array could only be used once, but it only took an instant to cross the Suzaku River and enter the country of Rosefinch.
Feng Yushan respectfully stood outside the valley. Ten days ago, he brought the battle invitation to Wang Lin to fulfill the agreement from ten years ago.
In these ten days, Wang Lin was still thinking about whether he should go or not.
The country of Rosefinch didn't pursue the matter from back then. In Wang Lin's eyes, there was something fishy about this. After analyzing it, he concluded that the country of Rosefinch wanted to accept him as a core disciple.
Just like Red Butterfly did back then.
This was why there was this battle. Not only would the old monsters from the country of Rosefinch see it, but the entire country of Suzaku would also know about it.
After all, Red Butterfly's fame was too great. Because of Red Butterfly, the Four Sect Alliance was destroyed and Xue Yu was raised to rank 5. This kind of thing had never happened in the history of the country of Rosefinch.
Because of this, Red Butterfly's name was known by most cultivators.
And Ceng Niu's fame came from stepping on Red Butterfly's back. Because of this, he became even more famous.
Now, the battle between the two of them had become the focus of all the cultivators of Suzaku. The winner of this battle would definitely receive a great opportunity.
Almost everyone knew about this.
How could Wang Lin not understand?
He knew that the old monsters from the country of Rosefinch wanted to see who would be the winner between the two of them!
If he had reached the Soul Transformation stage or the late stage of Soul Formation, even if he cut off one of Red Butterfly's arms, he wouldn't be able to escape death. However, he was only at the early stage of Soul Formation. Cutting off one of Red Butterfly's arms would definitely attract the attention of some big shots. That was why there was a buffer of ten years.
Wang Lin's eyes lit up and he had an idea in his heart.
The first update arrived, the third update will come later.
Er Gen's target is 1,300 votes. In the last five days of 2009, let's make Er Gen crazy!
