The short old man's face was filled with sorrow as he held the Celestial Capture Net. He no longer ran and just stood there. He knew that he was only a shell of a mid stage Ascendant cultivator. Compared to Wang Lin, who had his own dao and had reached the Ascendant stage, it would be too difficult for him to escape.
It was only a matter of time before he was caught.
It was better to take a gamble. If the Celestial Capture Net was in a good mood, it could trap Wang Lin for three days. If he wanted to escape during these three days, Wang Lin wouldn't be able to catch him. If he didn't escape and captured Wang Lin with some medicine, he might be able to refine Wang Lin into a true low-grade celestial guard like the one recorded in the jade!
Thinking about the power of a low-grade celestial guard recorded in the mysterious jade, the short old man's heart couldn't help but pound.
The Celestial Guardians he refined were actually defective products that didn't conform to the records on the mysterious jade slip. According to the jade slip, refining a Nascent Soul cultivator into a Celestial Guardian had an extremely low success rate.
If it was an Ascendant cultivator, the success rate would increase a bit, but it was still very low.
Only peak late stage Ascendant cultivators would have a success rate of one in 10,000.
Of course, there were special cases. If it was a cultivator with their own dao, they could also have a success rate of one in 10,000.
With this thought in mind, the old man grabbed the Celestial Capture Net. A few moments later, Wang Lin stepped out from the void before the old man.
The moment he appeared, the old man let out a roar and the Celestial Capture Net flew out. In an instant, it expanded infinitely, as if it had become the sky of the world and the earth!
Wang Lin's divine sense had already noticed the net in the old man's hand. With his cautiousness, he secretly analyzed that the old man's treasure was not ordinary. After taking out the treasure, the old man didn't even try to escape. This showed that the old man was very confident in the power of the treasure.
Although he didn't know why the old man didn't take out the treasure before, Wang Lin became even more vigilant.
The moment he appeared, countless teleportation abilities were compressed under his feet. With just a thought, he could forcibly pass through anywhere in the surroundings.
The Immortal-capturing Net fused with the heavens and the earth, and a green light flashed in the sky. At the same time, green light also flashed from the ground. The two green lights suddenly rushed out and converged with each other.
"Tie him up, tie him up, tie him up!!" The short old man seemed to have gone mad as he stared at the green light.
From the start of muttering to a crazy roar.
"Tie him up!
We have to tie him up!! "The old man's face was bright red, and he clenched his fists tightly. Veins were bulging on his face.
Wang Lin coldly snorted. This green light was too strange. Wang Lin's Divine Sense couldn't penetrate it. With Wang Lin's cautiousness, he immediately tried to use a greater teleportation to avoid this green light.
However, at this moment, the green light suddenly increased in speed and rapidly shrank … However … its target wasn't Wang Lin … it was the short old man who seemed to have gone mad.
The old man's face was pale, and he quickly retreated. He repeatedly said, "Don't tie me up … Don't tie me up … I saved you, you can't tie me up … Don't tie me up, I beg you, Immortal-capturing Net, let me live …"
While Wang Lin was still in a daze, the green light flashed and instantly surrounded the short old man. The old man's body flickered, and his body emitted flames as he tried to escape. However, the flames dissipated as soon as they appeared.
The old man's face was filled with sorrow as he cursed, "You double-crossing Immortal-capturing Net, you only know how to tie me up, you never tie up your enemies!" As he spoke, the old man's body emitted a golden light, but it disappeared as soon as it appeared.
"Your original master must have died because of you!!"
The bitterness in the old man's heart could no longer be expressed with words. He cast his abilities one after another, but no matter how he cast more than ten different escape abilities, they were all useless in the end. He could only watch helplessly as the azure light completely drowned him.
The green light dissipated and turned into an Immortal-capturing Net that flickered with a faint green light. It tightly bound the short old man from head to toe. He couldn't even move a finger, and his body was directly sent to Wang Lin by the Immortal-Capturing Net.
Wang Lin had fought countless enemies in his life, but it was the first time in more than 700 years that he had personally seen his opponent being tied up by his own magic treasure and sent to him!
Wang Lin believed that even if another 7,000 years passed, it would be extremely difficult to encounter a similar scene again!
Even with Wang Lin's mental fortitude, after seeing this scene, he was still stunned. This showed how shocked he was!
"This …" Wang Lin didn't know whether to laugh or cry. However, at the same time, his fear of the Immortal-capturing Net reached an unimaginable level.
Just now, he saw with his own eyes that no matter what kind of spells the old man used, they were all ineffective against the Immortal-capturing Net!
The old man who was tied up by the Immortal-capturing Net and sent to Wang Lin felt even more sullen when he saw Wang Lin's expression. He angrily said, "Have you never seen someone deliver themselves to your doorstep? Old Man, my magic treasure is ineffective, this won't do!"
Even with Wang Lin's temperament, after hearing this, he couldn't help but laugh. This kind of smile was extremely rare on him!
The short old man let out a snort. At this moment, he was ready to throw caution to the wind. His cowardly temperament was suppressed by endless sullenness. He believed that he was the most wronged out of all the cultivators in the cultivation world. He clearly had a great fortune that countless people would go crazy for, but in the end, he was also destroyed by the magic treasure he obtained from that great fortune.
"Hmph, Old Man was unlucky this time. If you want to kill me, do as you see fit!" Although he said this, he couldn't help but feel nervous inside.
Wang Lin withdrew his smile and returned to his usual cold self. He grabbed the old man with his right hand and his body flickered as he disappeared.
Most of the cultivators at the castle had already escaped while Wang Lin was chasing them. Without the celestial seeds, they had regained their freedom.
However, some didn't leave, and Sun Ruonan was one of them.
At this moment, she was staring at the sky with a complicated expression. No one knew what she was thinking.
Wang Lin stepped out from the void and coldly looked around. There were only a few people left. When they saw Wang Lin, they respectfully clasped their hands and expressed their gratitude.
Only Sun Ruonan acted as if she didn't see Wang Lin. She continued to stare at the sky in a daze.
Wang Lin clasped his hands at the remaining cultivators as a sign of acknowledgment. His left hand reached out and grabbed Sun Ruonan. Then he quickly flew off into the distance.
The remaining cultivators had been waiting for Wang Lin to return to express their gratitude. When they saw Wang Lin leave, they thought back to everything that had happened in the past few years and felt like a dream. They said their goodbyes and scattered.
"Let me go! What right do you have to capture me!?" After Sun Ruonan was grabbed by Wang Lin, she immediately became sober and began to struggle.
"Shut up!"
Wang Lin's voice was like a cold wind that landed on Sun Ruonan's body, causing her to tremble. However, she quickly let out a cold laugh and said, "I know why you want to capture me. You want to use me as a cultivation vessel, right? It doesn't matter. If you want to come, then come. Just let me go!"
As Wang Lin flew, he turned his head and looked at the woman. His gaze was merciless, as if he was looking at a corpse. He slowly said, "You don't have the right to be my cultivation vessel!"
Wang Lin's speed was extremely fast. With one step, he was tens of thousands of kilometers away.
Sun Yunshan anxiously stood on the ground. There were more than ten cultivators lying on the ground next to him.
Just as he was feeling nervous, his eyes suddenly focused. Off in the distance, a ray of light appeared. It was Wang Lin!
In Wang Lin's hands was a man and a woman. Sun Yunshan's gaze first fell on the familiar woman.
"Ruonan!" Sun Yunshan's eyes were filled with joy, but it was soon replaced by a complicated expression.
His gaze moved away. This time, he looked at Wang Lin's right hand.
"Patriarch!" Even though Sun Yunshan had prepared himself for this, he was still shocked by what he saw!
Wang Lin landed on the ground and threw Sun Ruonan toward Sun Yunshan.
At the same time, his left hand reached out and the qilin beast flew over. The moment the qilin beast appeared, the more than ten cultivators on the ground, as well as the green mark on Sun Yunshan's forehead, trembled and flew into the qilin's mouth.
The qilin beast seemed to be very happy. It let out a roar and turned into a soul that flew into Wang Lin's soul flag.
"Brother Sun, the restriction has been broken and your sister has been rescued. You will have to find your martial uncles. As for the one in my Soul Refining Tribe, I will release him.
Goodbye! "With that, Wang Lin grabbed the short old man who claimed to be from the Celestial World and teleported away.
He was too lazy to pay attention to the dispute between this brother and sister pair.
In the Soul Refining Tribe, inside the pagoda, Wang Lin's figure appeared. He casually threw the short old man to the ground and sat down in the lotus position. His eyes lit up as he slapped his bag of holding and three rays of sword energy flew out. They floated next to the old man. The tips of the swords gave off a cold aura and pressed against the old man's skin.
These three swords were the Zi Shu, Mo Yang, and Hai Zhu swords. After Wang Lin refined them and fused the sword energy inside them, he was able to master the sword formation and activate it! "Sword Saint Ling Tianhou's Three Talent Sword Formation, I wonder if you have heard of it!"
Wang Lin's voice was calm, but when it landed in the old man's ears, his body trembled. His small eyes quickly looked at the treasured sword next to him.
"If you make any strange movements when the Celestial Capture Net is released, I'll let you know the mysteries of the Sword Saint's Three Talent Formation!"
Wang Lin slowly said.
He found out about the Three Talent Sword Formation when he was searching for Hai Zhu's soul!
The 12 swords formed the Three Talent Sword Formation with three as the number. If all 12 swords were used at the same time, it would become the Heaven Kill 12 Earth Sword Formation that Ling Tianhou was so proud of!
"Now tell me what your identity is!"
With Wang Lin's life experience, he could tell at a glance that this person was extremely timid. His words contained a devilish tone as he said, "If you don't tell me, then I'll use the soul search spell to refine your soul so you can never enter the reincarnation cycle!"
"Brothers, May is here. Double the seven-day monthly tickets. Let the Celestial Renegade Celestial World create a miracle in May.
My ears are here, begging for monthly tickets!!!
I'm going to kill my way into the top five of the Celestial World. Brothers, the time to fight has arrived!
