Wang Lin looked at Li Yuan with a smile that wasn't a smile. His gaze was like a sword that landed on Li Yuan's heart as if he could see through it.
There was no panic on Li Yuan's face at all. His expression was calm, without any signs of discomfort. He said respectfully, "Senior might be wondering why this junior knows about this place and why I did not break the restriction to enter."
Wang Lin looked at Li Yuan. This person's intelligence was very high, not something the woman could compare to. This kind of person was not ordinary, and from the conversation between the two of them, it seemed that this person was saved by the woman's family, but the price was to hand over his soul piece.
However, Wang Lin felt that the conversation between the two of them was all led by this person named Li Yuan. His words seemed to have a hidden meaning.
Li Yuan's expression was neutral and he revealed a sincere expression as he said, "Junior obtained an ancient map a long time ago. That map depicted a restriction land before the Thunder Celestial Realm collapsed. Junior studied this map for a long time and is confident that as long as the restriction land is still there, I will be able to find it. As for the restriction there, Junior is 70% confident I can break it.
I came here this time for the sake of this restricted area. "
Wang Lin remained calm and didn't speak.
"If Junior's guess is correct, there should be an origin tool inside the restriction land, and it should be one that is still intact. When the restriction is broken, Senior can take half of it!"
At this moment, the woman opened her mouth but chose to remain silent in the end.
Wang Lin looked at Li Yuan. After a long time, he faintly smiled and nodded. "I can, but …" As he spoke, Wang Lin suddenly raised his right hand and reached out. The woman's body trembled and a shadow that looked like half of her soul appeared three inches from her body!
All of this happened in an extremely short period of time. The woman's face was pale as if she had lost a lot of energy.
"I want to take a soul as a keepsake!"
A soft light gathered between the eyebrows of the shadow and turned into a ball of light. Wang Lin grabbed it and put it inside his bag of holding.
Li Yuan's expression was the same as usual, but he was extremely vigilant. The person in front of him was as cunning as him. This person didn't take his soul, but chose the girl from the Ge family. Could it be … this person had seen through something!?
"Also, I am very interested in the restriction you used to conceal yourself." Wang Lin's gaze fell on Li Yuan.
Li Yuan was silent for a moment. He patted his storage pouch and took out a jade slip. He imprinted it with his mind for a long time before handing it over to Wang Lin. "Since Senior is interested, Junior will naturally not be stingy."
Wang Lin took the jade slip, scanned it with his Divine Sense, and immediately frowned.
At this moment, although Li Yuan had lowered his head, he could acutely see Wang Lin's almost undetectable frown from the corner of his eyes. He could not help but secretly say in his heart: "This person's cultivation is very strange, and he has an extremely deep understanding of restrictions. Otherwise, he would not have been able to see through my restriction technique. However, no matter how much he understands, it is impossible for him to see through my restriction technique!"
Thinking about the origin of his restriction technique, Li Yuan felt a bit depressed.
Wang Lin really couldn't understand the restriction inside the jade. With his understanding of restrictions, when he saw the various spells inside, he felt like he couldn't see through them. This restriction was clearly different from what he had learned, and it was not even a celestial restriction technique.
Once someone studied this restriction, 18 giant statues would appear in their mind. When they intertwined with each other, their mind would tremble violently.
Wang Lin withdrew his Divine Sense. Although he couldn't see through it, he found a trace of familiarity in this restriction.
Wang Lin didn't point it out. He put away the jade and calmly said, "Lead the way!"
Li Yuan quickly nodded and arrived next to the woman named Ge. He wanted to help her, but the woman waved her sleeve. Li Yuan let out a snort and turned into a ray of sword light that flew off into the distance.
Li Yuan didn't mind. He clasped his hands at Wang Lin, then a light appeared under his feet and he flew into the sky.
Wang Lin casually followed behind him. His eyes lit up as he observed Li Yuan.
"This person's words are likely to contain both truth and falsehood. At this moment, I am beginning to suspect whether this person had already calculated all of this the first time he saw me … if this is really the case, this Li Yuan's schemes are far too deep!"
Wang Lin's personality was filled with suspicion. Although Li Yuan looked normal, Wang Lin felt like he was mysterious when he talked to him.
"If everything this person said is true, then it's fine. But if he's lying and wants to harm me, then I'll have to kill those two first!" Wang Lin's eyes opened and closed, and his killing intent was hidden very deeply.
The woman named Ge was filled with resentment, but she didn't dare to vent it on Wang Lin. She only felt resentment toward Li Yuan.
"If there wasn't a problem with Li Yuan's restriction, how could that person be lured here? My celestial soul had just formed and was able to communicate with my origin soul, yet I was captured by that person!
"Also, if that person wanted the keepsake, why did he only take my soul and not Li Yuan's soul?" The more she thought about it, the more resentment she felt toward Li Yuan.
Just at this moment, Li Yuan flew next to the woman. He looked ahead and said, "The place in my memory isn't on this continent. You need to go through the thunder area to find it."
The woman named Ge let out a cold snort and didn't speak. However, Li Yuan's voice suddenly appeared in her mind.
"Miss Ge, I've surrounded my divine sense with a restriction, so that person won't be able to detect what I'm saying. He heard our conversation and knows that my soul is in your family's hands. As long as he controls you, it is the same as controlling the two of us.
"But don't worry, Miss, Li Yuan will find a way to retrieve your soul!"
Li Yuan's voice was extremely cautious, but it was filled with sincerity and determination. Although the woman named Ge let out a cold snort, her heart calmed down a bit. It was obvious that she agreed with Li Yuan's explanation.
Several days later, as the three of them flew, the edge of the continent appeared before their eyes. Bolts of thunder extended into the dark void like chains.
At the edge of the continent, Li Yuan stopped and respectfully said, "Senior, this thunder area contains great power. Even some powerful cultivators have to be extremely cautious when passing through the thunder area. Senior, you have to be careful!"
Standing here, one could feel the majesty and magnificence of the Thunder Celestial Realm. Similarly, only by standing here could one feel how badly the Thunder Celestial Realm had been destroyed.
If one looked from above, the edge of the continent would look like an irregular sawtooth. It was as if it had been torn apart by a pair of giant hands!
The side of the continent was filled with cracks that extended all the way down. At a glance, one couldn't see the end, only the endless void.
It was as if this continent was floating in the void!
Standing here, one could hear the endless rumbles of thunder coming from the front. It was sometimes strong and sometimes weak, and when one heard it, they couldn't help but have the illusion that they didn't know where they were.
It was as if they were in the middle of the world and were stepping on the void.
There were flashes of thunder on the side of the continent. These bolts of thunder seemed to be nailed to the continent and stretched out like chains. Although they extended into the void, Wang Lin could imagine that there must be another continent connected to the other end of the thunder chains.
The entire Thunder Celestial Realm was locked by these thunder chains. They were like threads that connected most of the fragments of the Thunder Celestial Realm that had collapsed countless years ago.
If one looked down from the highest point in the Thunder Celestial Realm, they would see this scene clearly. There were countless bolts of thunder connecting the gaps between the fragments, allowing the collapsed Thunder Celestial Realm to survive.
From the looks of it, it was as if there really was a pair of giant hands that tore the Thunder Celestial Realm into pieces.
Wang Lin let out a sigh. It was just like when he saw the giant palm print in the Rain Celestial Realm. These two Celestial Realms made him wonder what happened in the Celestial Realm countless years ago to cause it to collapse to this degree.
It wasn't that Wang Lin hadn't guessed that it was caused by an ancient god, but there were many differences. After pondering for a bit, Wang Lin gathered his thoughts and looked at Li Yuan and the woman named Ge.
"How will the two of you pass this thunder layer?"
Li Yuan had been closely observing Wang Lin's expression. When he saw the cracks on the edge and the thunder chains, Wang Lin's eyes went into a trance for a moment. He couldn't help but confirm his speculation. This was the first time this person had come to the Thunder Celestial Realm!
After hearing Wang Lin's question, Li Yuan respectfully said, "The key to passing this thunder layer will depend on Lady Ge."
The woman named Ge let out a snort and slapped her bag of holding. A black iron sword immediately flew out. This sword looked extremely ordinary and there was nothing special about it.
However, after it appeared, Wang Lin found that there was a hint of uncontrollable excitement in Li Yuan's eyes. However, it quickly disappeared and was hidden. He seemed to casually look at Wang Lin.
After he found that Wang Lin hadn't noticed him, he let out a sigh of relief.
The woman named Ge's gaze fell on the iron sword. She bit the tip of her tongue and spat out a mouthful of blood. Her right hand circled the sword and formed a rune. A similar rune flashed between her eyebrows. The two shined for a few breaths as if they were checking each other. Then it landed on the iron sword.
The sword trembled, and a circular shield of light spread out from it. Li Yuan suppressed the excitement in his heart and was the first to step forward. He charged into the shield of light and landed on top of the iron sword. The position he was standing on was a bit strange; it was the tip of the sword!
His back was facing Wang Lin and he revealed a hint of reminiscence.
The moment Li Yuan's foot landed, Wang Lin's eyes narrowed and he stared at Li Yuan's feet. His gaze was like lightning and he was moved!
The woman named Ge frowned. She took a step forward and landed on the hilt of the sword.
"Slow work produces fine work. The Thunder Celestial Realm is very important in my mind. I ask everyone to be patient and watch. You will find that it is twice as exciting as the Rain Celestial Realm from back then!
I have this confidence!
