"Celestial qilin!!"
When the short old man saw that Wang Lin had released a qilin, he immediately knew that something was wrong. When he saw the qilin's eyes, he was even more shocked.
He looked at the celestial grains that were charging at the qilin. The moment the qilin appeared, they all trembled as if they had met their natural enemy. They let out sharp, trembling cries and didn't hesitate to turn around and escape.
It wasn't just the celestial grains in the sky that were affected. Even the cultivators on the ground were trembling as if they were enduring great pain. Blue lines appeared between their eyebrows and quickly condensed into one point.
Seeing that the celestial grains were about to escape, the qilin let out an invisible breath from its nose and let out a roar. This roar seemed to contain a mysterious force that caused all the celestial grains to tremble and no longer dare to run.
The qilin took a step and arrived next to the celestial grains in the air. It inhaled and all of the celestial grains were sucked into the qilin's mouth. The qilin turned them into a very nutritious energy for celestial beasts.
This scene caused the short old man to be dumbfounded.
The qilin stuck out its tongue and licked the corner of its mouth. It then stared at the blue lines between the eyebrows of the cultivators on the ground. It was obvious that it wasn't full yet.
The short old man's expression was unsightly. He quickly took out another object from his bag of holding. It was a brush. The brush was sparkling and translucent, but the tip of the brush was white, as if it had never been dyed with ink.
The moment this item appeared, it immediately gave off a sense of majesty!
Under this majesty, even the qilin couldn't help but reveal a look of shock.
After he took it out, he stared at Wang Lin with a ferocious expression and shouted,
"Little Wang Lin, since you recognize the celestial grains, do you recognize the item in the Old Man's hand?"
Wang Lin's eyes narrowed, but he didn't speak. He slapped his bag of holding and the God Slaying War Chariot flew out and landed on the side. After receiving the real inheritance, the slow activation time of the war chariot had disappeared.
"I'm sure you don't know about this item. Let me tell you, the Old Man, this item was with the Old Man when he was in the Immortal World. It was used by the Old Man to enlighten cultivators in the lower realm!
The Old Man really thinks that your cultivation is not easy, you still don't want to scram immediately, if you scram too late, the Old Man will really make a move! "The short old man shouted.
Wang Lin looked at the old man and slowly said, "You don't need to tell me to leave again and again. Wang has already seen that although you are at the mid stage of Ascendant, you are the same as those celestial guards and have no origin energy in your body!"
The short old man's biggest secret was exposed by Wang Lin, and he became angry out of humiliation. He swung the brush in his hand forward and spat out a mouthful of blood. Then, he drew a rune with the tip of the brush.
As soon as the rune appeared, a vast amount of power came from it.
For the first time, Wang Lin's eyes revealed a hint of surprise, but this surprise quickly turned into a burning gaze!
He stared at the rune and then his gaze moved to the brush. The passion in his eyes was immediately replaced by an unimaginable joy!
Wang Lin wasn't unfamiliar with this rune; it was exactly the same as the rune he had seen on the path of the dragon outside the celestial cave!
He had studied this rune many times, but it didn't give him any power after he drew it. He was still unable to achieve the same effect as when he fused the four strokes. This was one of his regrets.
However, at this moment, he saw the rune in the short old man's hand again. Although it was only one stroke, it was truly drawn and contained a powerful force!
Wang Lin's gaze caused the short old man's heart to tremble. He wasn't unfamiliar with this gaze; when the Qilin saw the celestial grain he threw out, it revealed the exact same gaze.
Just at this moment, Wang Lin's body was filled with battle intent he hadn't had since he entered this place. He pointed at the war chariot and shouted,
"Thunder Beast!"
Bursts of thunder and lightning suddenly appeared in the sky. Bolts of lightning fell from the sky and landed on the God Slaying War Chariot. At the same time, a Thunder Beast with a silver horn on its head and a body like a Qilin appeared.
The moment it appeared, it let out a roar and charged into the sky. It caused the heavenly thunder to rumble and the entire sky was covered in bolts of lightning.
Just at this moment, the Qilin on the side also let out a roar. Although its roar wasn't as powerful as the Thunder Beast's, it wasn't weak either. This roar caused the green balls between the eyebrows of the surrounding cultivators to fly out of their bodies and be devoured by the Qilin.
At this moment, the rune drawn by the brush flew out toward Wang Lin.
Just at this moment, the Thunder Beast let out a roar and took a step forward. Bolts of lightning descended from the sky, creating a shocking scene that looked like a rain of lightning. A series of bolts of lightning descended from the sky and landed on the rune.
Although this rune was very powerful, the short old man only knew how to draw one stroke and wasn't able to use its true power. He could only watch as the rune gradually collapsed under the endless bolts of lightning!
After being stunned for a moment, the short old man's body trembled. He was scared and without a word, he turned around and ran!
Over the past few hundred years, after a fortuitous encounter, he had been acting like a tyrant. He used celestial grains to control a large amount of cultivators, but he was very cautious. It could even be said that he was very timid. He never provoked Ascendant cultivators or demon commanders.
His timidity was innate. Back then, he had clearly reached the peak of the late stage of Soul Transformation, but he didn't have the courage to try to reach the Ascendant stage.
He was afraid of death!
However, this caution was gradually thrown to the back of his mind after he had ten celestial guards. He began to capture more cultivators to fuse with the broken jade in hopes of training more celestial guards.
"Where did this damn Wang Lin come from? How could he be so strong? Damn it, if I can escape this calamity, I'll definitely kill the cultivator who sent this information back to Ancient Demon City!" As the short old man escaped, he cursed crazily in his heart.
Wang Lin's eyes were filled with fire. Even if he had to use all the celestial spiritual energy in his body, he couldn't let this short old man escape. His eyes were red, and this red wasn't caused by killing, but by the treasure on the old man's body.
In Wang Lin's eyes, this old man was a moving treasure trove. Wang Lin was very confused. If this person had such a treasure on him, why hadn't anyone come to steal it after so many years?
He didn't know that this short old man was timid and cautious, and it was only in the past few decades that he slowly became bold. In the past, when this old man captured cultivators, he would usually target lone disciples from small sects. It wasn't until recently that he dared to make a move against large sects. Capturing the Heavenly Fate Sect's Blue Division disciple was an extremely bold move by this short old man.
Although this short old man's cultivation was at the mid stage of Ascendant, he had also used a special method to increase his cultivation. As a result, he could still fight against some weak early stage Ascendant cultivators, but against someone like Wang Lin, who could fight against a cultivator at the mid stage of Ascendant, he was insignificant!
Also, although his treasures were strong, he couldn't really use any of them. He only knew a little about them, and being able to use 1% of their power was already his limit.
The short old man quickly escaped. At this moment, it was as if he had returned to the time when he was still a late stage Soul Transformation cultivator and was being chased by powerful cultivators.
His heart was filled with anger as he viciously cursed Wang Lin. However, a ray of black light immediately came from behind him. The old man quickly used the brush in his hand to draw a symbol to block Wang Lin's spell.
Then, he mercilessly stomped his right foot and his entire body was covered in flames. The flames were instantly extinguished and his figure disappeared.
The red light in Wang Lin's eyes became even stronger. Although this short old man's other abilities were weak, his escape spells were endless. In half an hour, he had already used spells that stunned even Wang Lin no less than 10 times.
This was the 11th escape spell that was completely different from the previous ones!
Wang Lin sneered as his body moved and his divine sense spread out. He immediately found the short old man 30,000 kilometers away.
The flames around the old man's body disappeared and he was quickly flying when he suddenly revealed a bitter expression. In the distance, Wang Lin's figure stepped out from the void and charged at him.
A look of hesitation appeared in the old man's eyes. Gritting his teeth, he tossed the brush off into the distance. Ripples appeared around the brush as it pierced through the air, seemingly on the verge of flying off into the distance.
After the old man threw the brush, he immediately formed a seal with both hands and a golden aura surrounded his body. He immediately charged out, and his speed was 100 times faster than before!
"Wang Lin, little brat, that celestial brush is a real celestial item. Now that it has fallen into the void, it will be difficult for you to find it again!"
The short old man's voice slowly came from the distance.
Wang Lin's expression was calm as he grabbed his bag of holding. The celestial sword and the black curved blade flew out and Xu Liguo appeared. He didn't wait for Wang Lin's order and already knew what he was going to do. He let out an arrogant roar and excitedly shouted, "Wang Lin, faster!
Faster!
Catch that brush for this old man! "
The black saber flashed and disappeared. It took Xu Liguo and chased into the void.
Wang Lin took a step forward and used the greater teleportation spell to chase after the short old man.
While the old man was running for his life, he noticed that Wang Lin was chasing him again. He immediately shouted in his heart, "What … What does he want? I've already thrown away the celestial brush, why won't he let me go!?"
His divine sense noticed that Wang Lin was closing in at an extremely fast speed. The old man clenched his teeth and slapped his bag of holding to take out a green net.
"Compared to the God Sealing Brush, my control over the Celestial Capture Net is even weaker. I've never used it against an enemy before. I beg you, Celestial Capture Net. This time, you … you have to recognize the enemy. I was the one who saved you all back then, so we were able to meet. This is fate, right?
You have to not tie me up this time! "
The short old man muttered to himself. He really didn't want to use the Celestial Capture Net unless he had no other choice. This net was too strange in his eyes.
Ever since he obtained it, he had only used it once when no one was around to see how powerful it was. However, he didn't expect the net to tie him up for three days.
After that, he hesitated for a long time. Unwilling to give up, he used it again with a trembling hand. In the end, he still tied himself up for three days.
Only the third time did he manage to tie up a piece of wood he used for his experiment.
In the last seven hours, he knew that everyone had tried their best and didn't surpass fifth place. It didn't matter. We'll fight again on the first day!
