The moment Sun Yunshan finished speaking, a ray of purple light flew over like a bolt of lightning. It was very fast and landed on the ground, revealing itself to be Wang Lin.
Wang Lin faintly smiled, clasped his hands, and said, "I was delayed by some matters on the way. I didn't expect Brother Sun to be waiting for me here."
Sun Yunshan laughed and said, "No problem. Originally, I was going to leave for the East Demon Spirit Sea yesterday. However, I heard that Brother Wang was chosen by Senior Tian Yunzi, so I thought about it for a bit and decided to wait a few days. The two of us can travel together. Wouldn't that be great?"
Wang Lin gently smiled, nodded, and said, "Thank you for your trouble." With that, his gaze swept past the people beside Sun Yunshan.
Sun Yunshan smiled and said, "These three are elders of my Xuan Yuan Sect. They are responsible for my safety. After all, my cultivation isn't as high as Brother Wang's. This trip to the East Demon Spirit Sea is too dangerous.
Alas, if it wasn't for my father forcing me to go, I wouldn't have gone to the East Demon Spirit Sea. "
Wang Lin chuckled and said, "Brother Sun is interesting."
As for the girl in pink, her gaze turned and she looked at Wang Lin. Her eyes suddenly flashed with a hint of surprise.
Sun Yunshan pointed at the girl and said, "Brother Wang, this is my little sister, Sun Ruonan."
With that, he looked at the girl and shouted, "This is Senior Tian Yunzi's direct disciple, Wang Lin, Wang Daoyou. Why haven't you come greet him yet?"
Sun Ruonan wrinkled her nose and bowed toward Wang Lin. Her voice was like a lark as she said, "Ruonan greets Big Brother Wang!"
Wang Lin smiled and nodded. He didn't look at her as his gaze fell on the formation.
Sun Yunshan was smart, so he naturally knew what Wang Lin was thinking. He said, "Brother Wang, it's getting late. Let's go."
Wang Lin nodded. The two of them walked toward the center of the formation at the same time.
"Xuan Yi, come back!" Sun Yunshan said slowly without looking back.
Without a word, Xuan Yi turned around and walked into the formation. As for the other two elders, they also stepped into the formation. At this moment, only the pink-robed lady was left outside the formation. She stomped her foot and shouted at Sun Yunshan, "Brother, let me go!"
"No!" Sun Yunshan said without hesitation.
"Activate the formation!"
With a roar, the hundreds of disciples outside the formation opened their eyes and began to circulate the spiritual energy in their bodies. A large amount of spiritual energy flowed out of their bodies and entered the formation.
That formation was no ordinary formation. It was a formation in the starry sky, and the amount of Spirit Stones and Celestial Jades required to activate it was enormous.
A series of rumbling noises were emitted from the formation. A vast energy frantically poured out from within the formation, forming a huge air wave that spread out from within the formation.
The clothes of the hundreds of disciples were blown by the strong wind, creating flapping sounds. Their faces were pale, but their bodies didn't move at all.
After a short while, a thousand feet long rainbow suddenly shot out from the formation and pierced through the clouds. In the sky, rings of light continued to spread in all directions. Gradually, more than half of the sky above planet Earth was filled with these ripples.
After the time it takes half an incense stick to burn, the ripples slowly dissipated.
However, the moment the ray of light pierced through the sky, a hint of pride appeared in the eyes of the girl who had been standing outside the formation. She touched her storage space with her right hand and a jade immediately appeared in her hand.
"Hmph, if you don't want me to go, then I'll secretly follow. Didn't I still steal dad's teleportation jade? With this, I can still go with you guys. Maybe I'll be able to find some treasures in the East Demon Spirit Sea!"
The moment the jade appeared in her hand, it gave off a white light that almost instantly enveloped her body. With a flash of white light, the woman turned into a white thread and charged into the sky. She fused with the ray of light and disappeared.
East of planet Tian Yun, near the East Demon Spirit Sea.
There were only three days left until the opening of the East Demon Spirit Sea!
There were already a lot of cultivators around; there were at least 10,000 of them. However, not all of them were here to enter; a lot of them were here to watch the tide.
After all, the scene that happens once every 5,000 years could be a cultivator's entire life; it could even be said to be an eternity.
After all, if one can't step into the Yin and Yang Illusory and Corporeal state, their lifespan won't be able to break through the first layer. If their lifespan can't increase, then they won't be able to live for 5,000 years.
Outside the East Demon Spirit Sea, some old monsters that rarely appeared also arrived. Some of them came in person, and some came as disciples. However, every time one of them appeared, they would occupy a spot and were extremely overbearing.
The more they were like this, the more no one dared to provoke them.
Luckily, these people all knew each other, so even if they occupied a spot, there was very little friction. For example, right now, no one had taken half a step within 100 feet of the Blood Ancestor's daughter, Yao Xixue.
On this day, there were only two days left until the East Demon Spirit Sea opens.
All of a sudden, a vast expanse of light that resembled starlight appeared in the sky. There were simply too many of them, and they were densely packed together. At a glance, it looked as if all the stars in the sky were madly rushing toward them.
Just the light alone gave rise to an unimaginable pressure. It was like a huge storm, whistling through the air.
At this moment, aside from a few famous old monsters, the expressions of all the cultivators changed. Even the Blood Ancestor's daughter, Yao Xixue, opened her eyes and looked at the endless specks of light charging at her.
"Venerated Sword …" Yao Xixue murmured softly.
The rays of light from the distance turned into ancient swords in the blink of an eye. They were rays of sword energy, and they were filled with the might of the heavens. When they got close, all the cultivators outside the East Demon Spirit Sea moved out of the way.
This scene was even more grand than when any of the old monsters came.
Within the large amount of sword energy was a giant Qilin. Sword Saint Ling Tianhou was sitting on top of the Qilin, and his eyes were like torches.
Behind him were four rays of sword energy that flashed violently, making him even more powerful!
Behind the Sword Saint were 12 people!
These 12 people all had large, ancient swords on their backs. There were images of various demonic beasts on the swords, forming the image of 12 beasts.
"12 Sword Saints!" Some of the surrounding cultivators immediately recognized these 12 people!
Everyone on planet Tian Yun knew that Sword Saint Ling Tianhou had always been against Tian Yunzi. The battle between the two had lasted for countless years and was still going on.
However, Sword Saint Ling Tianhou had always been suppressed, but he never compromised and had always been against Tian Yunzi.
The Heavenly Fate Sect had seven true disciples, so Sword Saint Ling Tianhou had the Da Lou Sword Sect's 12 Sword Saints!
The seven true disciples had celestial spells, so his Da Lou Sword Sect's 12 Sword Saints had the protection of a demonic spirit!
The moment the Sword Saint arrived, a large amount of space opened up outside the East Demon Spirit Sea. Within 50 kilometers, only the Sword Saint and his 12 Sword Saints remained.
Ling Tianhou's expression was gloomy. He originally didn't know the reason for coming here early, but this trip to the Demon Spirit Sea was very important to him.
Ling Tianhou's gaze looked at the floating sea before him and his eyes revealed a hint of reminiscence.
Back when he returned from the Celestial Realm, that sword spirit had been bothering him. What he didn't expect was the power of that sword spirit to shock him. In the end, he lured the sword spirit into the East Demon Spirit Sea and used a secret spell to trap it inside.
This time, he was going to borrow the tide that happens once every 5,000 years to completely suck the sword spirit into the East Demon Spirit Sea so that it would never return.
"This sword spirit belongs to the female ruler of the Celestial Realm. Although it is no small matter, since the Old Man can't control it, I can't let it fall into the hands of others, especially that old thief All-Seer!" Ling Tianhou let out a snort and revealed a gloomy expression.
While Ling Tianhou was pondering, his expression suddenly changed. He looked into the distance and revealed a strange expression.
A large amount of gloomy, cold energy suddenly appeared in the void. This cold energy was dark green, and as it rushed over, it turned into giant skulls. These skulls were densely packed together, and there were at least a few thousand of them.
There were even some skulls that still had flesh and blood on them.
Among these skulls, there was one that was very large. It was obviously the skull of an ancient beast, and there was a middle-aged man sitting on top of it.
This person was shrouded in death aura, making it impossible to see his face. There were countless skulls flashing around him, making it look like a forest of skeletons.
He charged forward as if there was no one there. He broke through the void and appeared where Sword Saint Ling Tianhou was, a place no one dared to enter.
"Old friend Ling Tianhou!"
The middle-aged man shrouded in death aura sitting on top of the skull laughed with a hoarse voice.
Sword Saint Ling Tianhou faintly smiled and said, "Greedy Wolf!"
This Greedy Wolf was the person who wanted to devour the ancient cultivators on Suzaku to recover his cultivation. He also wanted to find that sliver of divine retribution to find Wang Lin.
This person was also one of the main culprits who stole Situ Nan's Heaven Defying Bead!
In order to avoid Situ Nan, he left Suzaku to find his old friend, Sword Saint Ling Tianhou!
With Sword Saint Ling Tianhou's cultivation, he was able to immediately see that the Greedy Wolf's injuries hadn't healed yet. "Why are your injuries so serious?"
The Greedy Wolf's eyes lit up and he slowly said, "This matter can't be explained in one glance. I went to the Da Lou Sword Sect to find you and found out you were here, so I rushed over to give you a great opportunity. If you and I can seize this opportunity, it will be easy for you to suppress that old man All-Seer!"
