While the rumor of Ceng Niu's battle with Xue Yue spread throughout Suzaku, Ceng Niu disappeared once again.
After Wang Lin left Xue Yue, he immediately found a quiet place. He took the two sealed arms and entered the heaven defying bead.
He was currently standing under Situ Nan's Nascent Soul. The moment he arrived, he unsealed the two arms.
The moment the seal was unsealed, the two arms floated into the air and hovered around Situ Nan's Nascent Soul.
Wang Lin stared at the scene before him with a serious expression. He had guessed before that these two arms were Situ Nan's body, but now he was even more certain.
For the first time in hundreds of years, Situ Nan's Nascent Soul trembled. Shortly after, a crystal light came out from the Nascent Soul and surrounded the arms.
Slowly, the severed arm moved closer to the Nascent Soul and finally disappeared into the Nascent Soul.
Wang Lin could clearly feel that Situ Nan's Nascent Soul was recovering at a very fast rate. It slowly went from a semi-transparent state to a solid state.
After a while, the crystal light dissipated and everything returned to normal. Situ Nan's Nascent Soul was completely solid, but it still hadn't awakened.
"Back then, Situ Nan said that only when I reach the Soul Transformation stage will I have the power to wake him up. He didn't say much back then, but now it seems like it has something to do with celestial spiritual energy."
Wang Lin pondered a little. He looked at Situ Nan's Nascent Soul and then at his parents' souls.
He stared at them for a long time and bitterly said, "Father, Mother, I should have sent you into the reincarnation cycle, but I don't want to …"
After a long time, Wang Lin let out a sigh, turned around, and left the heaven defying bead.
"That broken arm really was Situ Nan's body. I just don't know if there are other parts of his body on Suzaku." Wang Lin walked out of the heaven defying bead and looked into the distance. That was where the Giant Demon Clan was.
"I have already checked Li Yuanfeng's soul. He only found these two arms by chance. There are no other clues." Wang Lin shook his head, took a step forward, and disappeared.
"The celestial sword is in the hands of the Giant Demon Clan ancestor. I must get it back!
In the past, Sun Tai fought against the Giant Demon Ancestor. In the end, the Giant Demon Ancestor used his innate talent to defeat Sun Tai, but in the end, he was injured by one of Sun Tai's puppets. No one knew if he was dead or alive.
However, even if this person didn't die, he would definitely need to find a new body after losing his physical body. The time it takes to adapt to a new body can be long or short. I wonder if this person has completely adapted to it … "Wang Lin took a step and appeared outside an ancient transportation array.
"The Giant Demon Clan ancestor is different from Li Yuanfeng. Li Yuanfeng forcibly reached the Soul Transformation stage, but the Giant Demon Clan ancestor relied on his own cultivation to reach the Soul Transformation stage. Also, the Giant Demon Clan's fighting style is similar to that of the ancient gods. I fear the Giant Demon Clan ancestor has some connection to the ancient gods.
If that's the case, I don't have the confidence to fight him!
Wang Lin frowned and stopped outside the transfer array. He didn't move forward. This transfer array had a node that led to the Giant Demon Clan.
Wang Lin's expression was gloomy and he began to ponder.
"None of this is important. The most important thing is that the Giant Demon Clan ancestor's innate talent even made Sun Tai, who is at the mid stage of Soul Transformation, worry. In the end, Sun Tai was sucked into the vortex. As a result, my confidence in fighting the Giant Demon Clan ancestor is even lower."
"Should I fight or not?" Wang Lin rarely hesitated outside the transfer array.
"If I fight, the outcome will be uncertain!"
"If I don't fight, I'll miss the best opportunity to kill this person. If I wait for him to completely possess me and then kill him, who knows how long it will take. Also, this person is eager to kill me because of the Giant Demon Clan member that saw the heaven defying bead!"
Wang Lin had lived for 500 years. No matter how stupid a person was, they would still be smart. Not to mention, not only was he not stupid, he was very smart. After 500 years, he was able to see things even more clearly.
Combining all the clues, when he woke up two years ago, he had already seen through the cause of the matter!
Wang Lin's eyes lit up and he stepped into the ancient transfer array. He took out a celestial jade and placed it in the eye of the transfer array. An illusion suddenly appeared before him with more than 10 dots of light flashing on it.
Wang Lin touched one of the dots of light with his right hand. The illusion disappeared and the transfer array opened.
Wang Lin's figure slowly disappeared as the rings of light shined.
In the northern part of the continent of Rosefinch, an ancient transfer array in the country of Bisheng was shining brightly. After the light dissipated, Wang Lin walked out.
His figure didn't stop. The moment he appeared, he disappeared and charged toward the Soul Refining Sect.
The three peaks of the Soul Refining Sect were immersed in the night. From below, they looked like three sharp blades piercing through the moonlight.
Wang Lin's figure appeared outside the Soul Refining Sect. He directly passed through the transfer array and flew toward the nine golden rings.
As the nine golden rings flashed, a middle-aged man appeared. After seeing Wang Lin, he revealed a complicated expression. He then let out a sigh and respectfully said, "I am Ouyang Tian. Greetings, young master."
"Young master …" Wang Lin's eyes lit up. He immediately knew that Du Tian had told the Soul Formation cultivators about his conversation with him.
Wang Lin clasped his hands and nodded. "Fellow cultivator Ouyang, I want to see ancestor Du Tian."
Ouyang Tian shook his head and said, "Young master, ancestor Du Tian has gone into closed door cultivation. Before he went into closed door cultivation, he said not to wake him unless it was absolutely necessary. However, ancestor has already guessed that you would come, so he told me to wait here and give you two items!"
With that, the complicated expression on his face became even stronger and he threw out a bag of holding.
Wang Lin's expression didn't change as he took the bag. Looking at it, his expression became strange.
Ouyang Tian bitterly smiled, "The young master is the next successor of ancestor Du Tian. I've been in the Soul Refining Sect for seven hundred years and this is the first time I've seen the ancestor give this to someone. Although it's not the main banner, it's just an illusion."
When Du Tian gave him the bag of holding and told him to wait for Wang Lin, Ouyang Tian secretly scanned it with his divine sense. If it weren't for the fact that he was loyal to the Soul Refining Sect and respected ancestor Du Tian, he would've been filled with greed.
There were only two items inside the bag.
A jade slip and a soul banner.
Wang Lin took out the jade and scanned it with his divine sense. Shortly after, he took a deep breath and bowed toward Xue Huan, who was still in closed door cultivation. He softly said, "Many thanks!" Although his voice was soft, Wang Lin remembered this favor.
With that, he nodded at Ouyang Tian, took a step back, and disappeared from the Soul Refining Sect.
The complicated expression in Ouyang Tian's eyes became even stronger. He shook his head and sighed before returning to the golden ring.
"The Giant Demon Clan's bloodline abilities are very powerful, but the Giant Demon Clan's ancestor has just reached the Soul Transformation stage, so he can't use his full power. He can only teleport a bit to the void outside of Suzaku."
Wang Lin didn't leave the Soul Refining Sect but stayed at the top of the Soul Refining Mountain. His eyes lit up as he held the jade slip.
Inside the jade, Du Tian had made a detailed record of the Giant Demon Clan's bloodline abilities.
Wang Lin took a deep breath. His right hand touched the bag of holding Ouyang Tian gave him and a ray of golden-purple light appeared.
This golden-purple light was very bright. After it appeared, it turned into a 30-foot-tall flag. The flag moved without any wind and emitted a whistling sound.
At the same time, waves of ghost-like howls came from the flag. The sky became even darker and even the moon hid behind the clouds as if it didn't dare to appear.
There were flashes of golden-purple light on the flag. As the flag waved, it looked like it was going to devour the world.
"One-billion-soul soul flag!" Wang Lin took a deep breath and stared at the flag.
This was the second item ancestor Du Tian put in the bag of holding, and it was also the reason why Ouyang Tian was so shocked.
The reason Wang Lin returned to the Soul Refining Sect was to borrow a treasure from Du Tian to help him kill the Giant Demon Clan ancestor and take back the celestial sword.
However, this wasn't the main flag. The real main flag was beside Du Tian and was in closed door cultivation with him.
This flag before Wang Lin was a sub-flag. It had one-third of the power of the main flag and could only be used twice!
After using it twice, it would dissipate into the world.
Even so, the value of this sub-flag was immeasurable. Wang Lin's eyes lit up and he grabbed the flag. The moment he touched it, his origin soul trembled and extended out of his body into the soul flag. At this moment, he felt like he was in hell.
Everywhere he looked, there was a boundless and immeasurable sea of souls rushing over, drowning him.
Waves of miserable screams and sounds of pain came from all directions. It was like a powerful attack had landed on Wang Lin's body. He felt like he was being hit by 100 million souls.
Even with the strength of his body, he felt like his flesh and bones were being separated from his body. What shocked him even more was that his origin soul was showing signs of collapsing.
Just one attack was enough to make him unable to resist.
Holding the flag in his right hand, Wang Lin's eyes shined brightly. He immediately focused his mind and began to use the soul sealing technique that Du Tian gave him.
The one-billion-soul soul flag was the number one treasure of the Soul Refining Sect. In the entire Suzaku Continent, this flag could easily suppress most treasures.
This treasure was the same as the God Slaying War Chariot and the Rain Celestial Sword; they all required a unique inheritance to activate and use.
The refining of this flag was the soul sealing technique!
So far in the Soul Refining Sect, including Wang Lin, only two people knew this soul sealing technique!
Unlike the war chariot, although Wang Lin had an inheritance, he wasn't strong enough to fully activate it, so its power wasn't as strong as expected.
However, this soul flag was different. Although the flag had requirements for cultivation, it wasn't as strict as the war chariot. With Wang Lin's current cultivation after fusing with his original body, he could control this flag!
The soul sealing technique began to circulate inside Wang Lin's body. Shortly after, Wang Lin's origin soul released a demonic glow. Under this light, all of the incoming souls screamed and scattered.
Among the souls, there were 12 purple-gold souls that slowly floated around Wang Lin's origin soul. These souls released waves of powerful soul force.
These 12 purple-gold souls deeply bowed toward Wang Lin.
