At this moment, Chi Hu closed in and kicked Wang Lin's chest with his right foot. Suddenly, Wang Lin's body was thrown far away.
This kick wasn't an attack at all. Instead, a surge of spiritual energy entered Wang Lin's body and became a part of him.
Chi Hu's anxious voice entered Wang Lin's ears. "Brother Ceng, the southeast corner is a path to survival!"
The middle-aged man saw through this and let out a snort.
The Giant Demon Clan ancestor's expression sank. He charged out and shouted, "Chi Hu, what are you doing?!"
Chi Hu's body flashed and he blocked the ancestor's side. His eyes were clear as he said, "Ancestor, I gifted that star compass to Ceng Niu, he didn't steal it. I, Chi Hu, am a man. Ceng Niu saved my life many times in the Celestial Realm and considers me a friend. How could I do something so despicable?!"
The Giant Demon Clan ancestor was so angry that he began to laugh. He moved and was about to go around Chi Hu.
Chi Hu let out a roar and the axe on his forehead began to flash. He took a step forward, clenched his teeth, and charged toward the Giant Demon Clan ancestor. He shouted, "My clan has no use for that star compass. So what if I gave it to Ceng Niu? You took his flying sword, yet you're still not satisfied?!"
The ancestor suddenly turned around and stared at Chi Hu. He reached out with his hand and Chi Hu immediately felt a mysterious force lock down his body. He couldn't move even half a step.
"If it wasn't for the fact that you have the most giant demon blood in your body, I would've killed you today, you unfilial son!
Once we return, I'll punish you to go into closed door cultivation for 100 years to endure the pain of body refinement! "
With that, he chased after the escaping Wang Lin.
Chi Hu clenched his fists and looked at the direction Wang Lin disappeared to. That was the southeast corner.
"Brother Ceng, I … tried my best …" Chi Hu's expression was melancholy. He didn't think that Wang Lin would survive. The reason he offended the ancestor was so that he wouldn't regret it.
"I, Chi Hu, am an open and candid person. Ceng Niu treats me as a friend, so I cannot do anything unjust!
With Chi Hu's help, Wang Lin's spiritual energy recovered a bit. He immediately rushed away, deeply engraving Chi Hu's help in his heart!
As he flew, Wang Lin placed his finger on his forehead and sighed inwardly. He had no idea what spell formation his opponent had set up, but not only was he unable to tear open spatial rifts, he couldn't teleport, and even the heaven defying bead was blocked by a layer of resistance.
This formation was very mysterious. In truth, not only could Wang Lin not teleport, even the Giant Demon Clan ancestor who set up the formation couldn't teleport himself.
"The Celestial Sword was stolen … If I can escape from this place today, I'll definitely get it back!" A trace of hatred appeared in Wang Lin's eyes.
However, just at this moment, the middle-aged man from Xue Yu moved like lightning. In the blink of an eye, he caught up to Wang Lin and coldly said, "You can't escape. This Old Man will send you to hell!"
This person raised his right hand and pressed down with his thumb. A powerful force came from his thumb. Before it even got close to Wang Lin, an extreme domain appeared.
This domain was a fragrance. This fragrance came from the fragrance of tea. By pouring all of one's body and mind into drinking tea, one would be able to experience life with tea as their companion.
Wang Lin's life and death domain immediately appeared. However, facing the domain of a Soul Transformation cultivator, he couldn't resist it. In an instant, he coughed out a mouthful of blood and his origin soul suffered another blow.
Wang Lin's body fell from the sky and landed on the ground.
Marks that looked like tea leaves appeared on his face. These marks flickered, and every time they flickered, Wang Lin's body would weaken a bit and his origin soul would gradually dissipate.
At this moment, the Giant Demon Clan ancestor arrived and looked down at Wang Lin.
"We have already wasted a lot of time. After killing this person, the Old Man still has important matters to attend to. Fellow cultivator Li, make your move.
The middle-aged man's eyes lit up and he smiled. "You don't want to make your move because you're afraid of Mount Rosefinch. Forget it, I was the one who started this, so I'll make my move!"
With that, he pointed forward and was about to end Wang Lin's life.
However, right at this moment, a clap of thunder suddenly sounded from the horizon. Following that, a huge crack was suddenly torn in the sky, and a purplish-black coffin descended from the sky.
A cold snort came from the coffin. "The Universal Demon Sealing Formation. If the Old Man didn't know where the eye of the formation is, it would have been difficult to enter!"
A red robed old man was standing on top of the coffin. His eyes lit up as he stared at the three people on the ground. After seeing the Giant Demon Clan ancestor and the middle-aged man, the old man's expression sank and he scolded, "Ceng Niu, did you eat too much? How did you cause such big trouble?
I say, you two old farts killed a Soul Formation junior. Don't you feel ashamed? "
"Shiyin!" The middle-aged man withdrew his right finger. His eyes lit up as he stared at the old man.
This red robed old man was the head elder of the Shiyin clan, Sun Tai!
Sun Tai's expression was gloomy as he looked at the middle-aged man. His gaze landed on the Giant Demon Clan ancestor and he cursed in his heart. Although the Giant Demon Clan ancestor was at the early stage of Soul Transformation, Sun Tai knew that once a member of the Giant Demon Clan reached the Soul Transformation stage, their bloodline abilities would appear. Even though he was at the mid stage of Soul Transformation, he didn't want to casually provoke the Giant Demon Clan ancestor.
Sun Tai said, "The Old Man wants to take this person away!"
"Fellow cultivator …" The middle-aged man from Xue Yue was about to speak.
Sun Tai stared at the middle-aged man and shouted, "You bastard, scram! A mere early stage Soul Transformation cultivator that was forcefully raised has no right to talk to the Old Man!"
Sun Tai stared at him and shouted.
The middle-aged man's face was green and red as he angrily stared at Sun Tai. Ever since he reached the Soul Transformation stage, he was like a king in Xue Yue. Even if he met other Soul Transformation cultivators, no one dared to speak to him like this.
Sun Tai let out a cold snort and looked at the Giant Demon Clan ancestor.
The Giant Demon Clan ancestor's eyes were gloomy as he stared at Sun Tai. After pondering a bit, he shook his head and said, "No, this person must die, and his corpse must belong to me!"
The middle-aged man from Xue Yue was startled. He looked at the Giant Demon Clan ancestor. This was the first time the Giant Demon Clan ancestor had asked for a corpse.
Sun Tai snorted and shouted, "You're not one of the Shiyin clan's people. What use do you have for a corpse?"
The Giant Demon Clan ancestor stared at Sun Tai and decisively said, "The Old Man has his own use!"
He indeed had a use. In truth, even if Xue Yue's sect master hadn't asked him to help set up the formation, he would have secretly killed Wang Lin.
He knew that Ceng Niu's real name was Wang Lin.
The star compass was only an excuse to kill Wang Lin. His real purpose was the news he got from the clan member that was sent to Zhao 500 years ago to open up a passage to the foreign battleground.
"The heaven defying bead is a treasure that even the Cultivation Alliance wants. If my Giant Demon Clan can obtain it and offer it to the Cultivation Alliance, we'll be given a rank 6 status. Then we can leave Suzaku and establish our own planet. That way, my branch of the Giant Demon Clan will have the right to become the top clan!
"The heaven defying bead was obtained by Wang Lin back then!"
These thoughts flashed through the Giant Demon Clan ancestor's mind. His eyes were filled with determination. Today, he wouldn't allow Wang Lin to be taken away.
Back then, the Giant Demon Clan member that reported this matter was immediately executed by the Giant Demon Clan ancestor. He extracted the Giant Demon Clan member's soul and carefully searched it. After confirming that the Giant Demon Clan member hadn't told anyone and that not many people knew about this matter, the Giant Demon Clan ancestor was afraid of attracting attention, so he didn't kill everyone who knew about this. Instead, he prepared to secretly search for Wang Lin.
However, although he had powerful spells, Wang Lin seemed to have evaporated. Suzaku was too big, so he had no way of finding him.
According to the last clue the Giant Demon Clan member had, Wang Lin had disappeared into the crack to the foreign battleground.
As a result, the Giant Demon Clan ancestor personally went to the foreign battleground and searched the crack for hundreds of years, but he didn't find anything.
This matter gradually became a regret in his heart. He thought that Wang Lin had died without leaving any trace. The heaven defying bead had disappeared once more.
However, all of this changed after Ceng Niu appeared. When Chi Hu returned, he found that there was something wrong with what he said. He used his status as the Giant Demon Clan ancestor to force Chi Hu to tell the truth.
The Giant Demon Clan ancestor immediately became suspicious. After some investigation, he found out that Ceng Niu's identity was Wang Lin!
As a result, he was very happy. However, due to the interference of the country of Rosefinch, he couldn't act. If he attracted the attention of the country of Rosefinch, then everything would be for naught.
However, he killed the messenger of Zhao from a rank 4 cultivation country that knew about this matter. When he extracted the messenger's soul, he found out that the messenger wasn't sure, so he didn't report this matter back then. This allowed him to relax and wait for an opportunity to kill Wang Lin.
Coincidentally, Xue Yue's Li Yuanfeng came to find him and asked him to set up a formation to kill Ceng Niu. The Giant Demon Clan ancestor immediately agreed and asked for the star compass.
As a result, even if the country of Rosefinch investigates, they will only be able to find Xue Yue. He will be able to take back the heaven defying bead without anyone knowing.
Even if Wang Lin dies, as long as he has a corpse, he will be able to use a secret technique to find the heaven defying bead.
Sun Tai's eyes darkened. He let out a snort and flew toward where Wang Lin was.
The middle-aged man from Xue Yue quickly moved forward. He slapped his bag of holding and took out a bell to stop Sun Tai.
Sun Tai shouted, "Scram!"
A heaven-like power spread out from his body. The middle-aged man's expression changed and he couldn't help but stop.
"You dare?!"
The Giant Demon Clan ancestor waved his right hand and a black vortex appeared and closed in on Sun Tai.
Sun Tai's right hand formed a seal and pointed at the coffin. A corner of the coffin opened and a corpse flew out toward the Giant Demon Clan ancestor.
Using this opportunity, Sun Tai reached out with his left hand and grabbed Wang Lin's body. Wang Lin was extremely weak right now. His eyes were closed and his face was ashen.
Without another word, Sun Tai turned around and flew into the sky. In the blink of an eye, he had already charged into the crack and was about to leave.
The middle-aged man's expression was unsettled. He hesitated for a bit and didn't attack.
How could the Giant Demon Clan ancestor just watch someone steal the fat meat that was already in his hands? He let out a roar and crackling sounds came from his body. In an instant, his body grew to more than 100 feet tall and a giant axe appeared in his hand. He chopped down, causing the sky to rumble.
A giant axe energy suddenly appeared. Sun Tai's expression changed. He already knew that the Giant Demon Clan ancestor would be difficult to deal with. His right hand formed a seal and he pushed forward.
Boom!
After a loud bang, Sun Tai dashed out of the crack.
