At this moment, Wang Lin went crazy.
His body couldn't move, but his primordial spirit could. Although it couldn't leave his body, his intent realm was still there.
Suddenly, a huge image of the god of luck appeared in the sky. After the ancient god appeared, it grabbed the Life and Death Reincarnation Scroll, and with a shake, it unfolded completely.
In an instant, a thick gray gas came out from the Life and Death Reincarnation Scroll. It didn't chase after the huge arm, but fused with the image of the god of luck behind it.
The ancient god's image trembled. Suddenly, a trace of the aura of the messenger of the heavens appeared on its body. Its eyes revealed a merciless light. It immediately grabbed the arm of the messenger and pulled.
Suddenly, the messenger of the heavens, who was hiding in the void with only its face exposed, was pulled out from the void by the ancient god.
At this moment, a strange scene appeared in the sky. Two huge figures appeared at the same time.
Wang Lin's eyes were like lightning. After he saw the messenger of the heavens clearly, he was immediately startled.
The body of the messenger of the heavens was almost the same as the image of the ancient god. However, what shocked Wang Lin was that there were seven stars flashing on the forehead of the messenger of the heavens.
However, three of them seemed to be sealed and emitted a dim light.
"This …" When Wang Lin saw this scene, he suddenly had an inconceivable thought.
"Is this really the Heavenly Reincarnation Dao … Previously, when he saw the messenger of the heavens, he didn't have time to think about other things. However, at this moment, he suddenly remembered that the Heavenly Reincarnation Dao was originally an invisible law of the heavens. How could there be a messenger of the heavens … And this messenger was actually an ancient god!
Everything that he saw today toppled Wang Lin's imagination. He suddenly asked himself, what is the Heavenly Dao?
After the messenger of the heavens appeared, his eyes revealed another color other than the coldness and ruthlessness. It was a trace of confusion.
He looked at the image of the ancient god and opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something. However, in the end, he didn't say anything.
His body moved and his huge arm suddenly waved towards the image of the ancient god formed by Wang Lin's intent realm.
* boom *
This loud bang echoed through the world and caused the entire moon to tremble. The area that was originally 10,000 kilometers wide began to shatter inch by inch with this tremble.
From Wang Lin's position, he could clearly see that the ground within a radius of 10,000 kilometers had suddenly collapsed, forming a huge crater.
In the center of the deep pit, only the place where Zhou Ru was lying was still intact. However, at this moment, it looked like a huge pillar standing alone.
Zhou Ru's body emitted a gentle white light.
The Ancient God formed of intent was forced back several steps by the Heavenly Dao Emissary's punch.
Wang Lin's body shook, and a trace of blood flowed down from the corner of his mouth. His primordial spirit was on the verge of collapse.
But at this moment, he knew that if he couldn't resist, Li Muwan's Nascent Soul would definitely die.
The ancient god formed by intent charged forward and punched out, clashing with the Heavenly Dao Emissary.
* boom * * boom * * boom * *
One attack after another caused the entire moon to tremble. More and more blood flowed down from the corner of Wang Lin's mouth. Just at this moment, the reincarnation force sealing his body loosened. Wang Lin let out a roar and immediately broke free.
"Die!" Wang Lin roared. His body soared into the air and his fist landed on the Heavenly Dao Emissary's body.
The Heavenly Dao Emissary's eyes were filled with confusion. He waved his right hand and sent Wang Lin flying like a meteor. His fist landed on the Heavenly Dao Emissary's body, forcing him back several steps.
The ancient god immediately took a step forward and chased after the Heavenly Dao Emissary and attacked once more.
Wang Lin's body flew over from the distance. He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and his eyes were filled with battle intent. Without saying a word, he charged out once more, fighting the Heavenly Dao Emissary alongside the Heavenly Dao Emissary.
The Heavenly Dao Emissary was continuously pushed back. Only four stars were flashing on his forehead, which meant that his current strength was only four-star Ji or Ancient God.
"You … are not of my tribe …" The Heavenly Dao Emissary spoke for the first time. Ordinary cultivators wouldn't be able to understand what he was saying, because he was speaking in the language of the ancient gods.
Just as he said, the current Wang Lin couldn't be considered part of the Ancient God Tribe. No ancient god could cultivate inner strength. More importantly, no ancient god had ever possessed a intent!
"It doesn't matter if I am or not, if you want to take Li Muwan's Nascent Soul, I will not agree!" Wang Lin also roared in the language of the ancient gods and punched out.
The Heavenly Dao Emissary retreated again.
The shadow of the Ancient God followed.
At this moment, the white glow around Zhou Ru's body became denser.
Suddenly, a voice came out from Zhou Ru's body.
"Wang Lin … you lied to me …"
This voice was something that Wang Lin had never heard in nineteen years. It belonged to Li Muwan.
Wang Lin's body trembled. He turned around and saw a scene that made him feel inconsolable.
"Wan Er, you!!!"
The white glow around Zhou Ru's body became extremely bright. Then, Zhou Ru's soul floated out from her body and was enveloped by the white glow.
"Wang Lin … Wan Er wants to see you and stay with you, but Wan Er is supposed to be a dead person. If I awaken at the cost of devouring this child's soul, it would be too cruel to her. In the past nineteen years, I've felt this child grow up bit by bit. Seeing her is like seeing my own child. Big Brother Wang … I can't bear it … Wan Er is very silly and let you down …"
The moment Li Muwan woke up, she stopped devouring Zhou Ru's soul. Instead, she used the power of her Nascent Soul to shake Zhou Ru's soul out of her body.
Without Zhou Ru's soul, her body was already surrounded by the will of death. The moment Li Muwan's Nascent Soul awakened, it was immediately exposed to the Heavenly Dao. Furthermore, her Nascent Soul was slowly collapsing.
Wang Lin's body moved and instantly appeared next to Zhou Ru's body. His right hand quickly touched Zhou Ru's forehead. Suddenly, Li Muwan's Nascent Soul slowly rose from Zhou Ru's body.
She opened her eyes and looked at Wang Lin. Her eyes were filled with tenderness from nineteen years ago.
"Promise me … that you will take good care of yourself …" Li Muwan said softly. She raised her hand to touch Wang Lin's body temperature. However, the moment her hand touched Wang Lin, it became transparent.
There was a hint of sadness on her face. She looked at Wang Lin and softly said, "Zhou Ru is just a child. Don't make things difficult for her. This is all my own choice."
At that moment, the Heavenly Dao Envoy leaped up and passed by the ancient god formed by the will. He arrived above Wang Lin and reached out his right hand to grab the giant wheel that was still floating in the air. With a pull, the reincarnation force appeared once again.
The wheel emitted a powerful suction force that enveloped Li Muwan.
Wang Lin suddenly raised his head. His eyes became extremely cold and he said, "Without my permission, forget the fact that you're not the heavens' dao, even if you're the real heavens' dao, you can forget about taking her away before I die!"
He pointed at his forehead and the heaven defying bead appeared. With a wave of his right hand, Li Muwan's Nascent Soul was absorbed by the heaven defying bead. Then, it sank into his forehead and disappeared.
The Heavenly Dao Envoy looked deeply at Wang Lin. After a while, his eyes revealed a hint of confusion and his body slowly disappeared. In the blink of an eye, the clouds in the sky disappeared along with the wheel.
Wang Lin stared at Zhou Ru's body in a daze and began to laugh. However, his laughter was filled with sadness and madness.
"I, Wang Lin, have fought against the heavens and resisted the reincarnation cycle twice. I never thought that I would lose to the will of the heavens. The will of the heavens … the will of the heavens plays tricks on people!"
Wang Lin's right hand pointed at Zhou Ru's soul and threw her soul back into her body. Then he let out a laugh and disappeared over the horizon, leaving behind a burst of sad laughter that echoed across the sky.
After Wang Lin left, Xiao Bai carefully flew over. He was originally sealed by Wang Lin, but the Heavenly Dao Envoy broke the seal and allowed him to escape. When he saw Wang Lin leave, he immediately flew to Zhou Ru's side. His eyes were filled with sadness and he licked Zhou Ru's face.
Zhou Ru muttered, "Xiao Bai … Stop messing around, I want to sleep …"
Xiao Bai was startled and immediately let out a happy roar. He grabbed Zhou Ru's clothes, jumped up, and took her far away.
A crazy person appeared on the moon. This person's hair was disheveled and his face was dirty. He often said the words "will of the heavens."
Wherever he went, any demon beast that tried to block his path died.
"The will of the heavens … I, Wang Lin, have defeated the will of the heavens, but I was played by the will of the heavens …"
One year later, on a rainy and thunderous night, the crazy person stood at the peak of a towering mountain in the east of the moon and looked up at the sky.
Rain poured down, sprinkling on the ground, landing on his body, and dripping down his cheeks.
"What is life, what is death …"
"I, Wang Lin, have spent my life in slaughter. I comprehended the heavenly dao of life and death when I turned into a mortal. I saw life as life, and death as death. I knew that this rain came from the sky. I was born in the sky, and I will die in the earth …
"Senior Zhou Yi's infatuation, the awakening of the female immortal corpse, and the two of them were moved. He lived, she died, and he died, she lived. It made me understand the meaning of seeing life as not life, and seeing death as not death …" The new life in the calamity made me feel the changes in life. Zhou Ru's wandering between life and death, Wan Er's death in life, and life in death. All of these good fortune of the will of the heavens made me, Wang Lin, finally understand that seeing life is still life.
Seeing death is still death!
"Nineteen years, Wan Er, thank you for letting me understand … So the things in this world, if they are dead, then let them die. If they exist, then let them exist.
"Just like this rain, it was born in the sky, but it won't die in the earth. In the earth, it will be reborn. It will cause plants to grow, and it will cause rain and mist to spread. All of these changes are life!
"I can't let go of the souls of my parents, and I can't let go of your departure. In fact, I haven't been filial to my parents, and I've always been passive toward you. Although this feeling is real, it is more of a kind of responsibility … a kind of touching … The souls of Wang Lin's parents flew out from his forehead. They looked at Wang Lin kindly and slowly disappeared. Their souls didn't perish, but they entered another realm of life.
