Wang Lin's expression immediately darkened. His pupils constricted as he stared at the lightning chain in the old man's hand in shock.
Even though Wang Lin had a Thunder Primordial Soul and Thunder Body, he couldn't casually hold the chain in his hand.
After all, just the lightning that was emitted from the chain contained a trace of the power of celestial lightning, let alone the entire chain.
He couldn't see through the old man's cultivation, but he could imagine that the old man was extremely powerful.
In addition, he had a vague feeling that there was a trace of the Origin Energy on the old man's body.
Wang Lin subconsciously took a few steps back. He was extremely unfamiliar with the old man, so the fated person the old man was talking about couldn't be him.
Wang Lin's gaze swept across the area and landed on Li Yuan.
Li Yuan was also extremely surprised. When he saw Wang Lin's actions, he naturally guessed that Wang Lin didn't know the old man, so it was obvious that the fated person the old man was talking about was him. He carefully looked at the old man and was rather puzzled. He cupped his fists and said respectfully, "The person Senior is talking about is …"
The old man stepped forward and walked out of the thick fog. He glared at Li Yuan and pointed at Wang Lin. He said unhappily, "Little fellow, don't play dumb. The fated person the Old Man was talking about is you!
Come here! "
Wang Lin's eyes narrowed and he said in a deep voice, "I have never met Senior before. How can you say that we are fated?"
The old man sized up Wang Lin and said with a smile, "Have you forgotten so quickly?
Anyone who can walk out of the Old Man's sealed passage within seven days is the fated person of the Old Man! "
Wang Lin's expression changed instantly. He looked at the old man and was silent for a moment. Then, he said slowly, "So it was Senior … I just don't know why Senior would do this."
The old man's face was filled with impatience. He took a step forward and reached out to grab Wang Lin. He said, "What's with all this nonsense? The Old Man said that you are the fated one, so you are!"
Wang Lin's face darkened and he quickly retreated. He couldn't see through this old man's cultivation, so he couldn't fight him. He could only flee!
The old man chuckled and grabbed downwards with his hand. In an instant, the space within a ten-mile radius of the void was enveloped by a storm-like power. The power was too strong and contained an unimaginable amount of Yuan Power.
Wang Lin's face went pale, and he suddenly found himself unable to move. It was as if someone had used some sort of body-fixing magic on him. He could only watch as the old man's hand reached out to grab him.
His eyes lit up, and at the moment the old man's hand closed in, he bit the tip of his tongue. He didn't spit out blood but swallowed it. He borrowed the celestial spiritual energy inside the blood and the spell he learned from the escaping cultivator in the Demon Spirit Land to form an internal cycle with the blood.
As the internal cycle rotated, his body loosened a bit when the old man's hand closed in. In a flash, he disappeared and reappeared in the distance. He immediately escaped without looking back.
The old man was surprised and his eyes revealed a look of interest. He smiled and said, "You are indeed worthy of being the fated person of the Old Man. You actually know this method to injure one's essence to escape!" He withdrew his right hand and waved it at the void!
He had only used ten percent of his strength in that grab just now, but he was serious in this slap, using twenty percent of his strength. With this slap, the entire space distorted in an instant, as if it was about to be torn apart, and ripples kept appearing.
The old man whispered, "Reverse!"
In the blink of an eye, the entire void trembled as if everything had changed. The direction in which Wang Lin was escaping blurred and his body retreated uncontrollably. His posture was exactly the same as when he was escaping.
In almost an instant, when his vision cleared, he discovered that he was standing nine meters away from the old man. Cold sweat dripped from his forehead. This kind of divine ability was beyond his imagination.
The old man looked at Wang Lin and smiled. "Why aren't you running?"
Wang Lin pondered a bit before clasping his hands and respectfully saying, "I wonder what Senior's orders are. Junior's cultivation level is insufficient, so I'm afraid I can't meet Senior's requirements."
The old man's gaze fell on Wang Lin's bag of holding and he said, "No problem. You can't help, but the Thunder Beast in your bag of holding can. Let the Old Man use it for a while and then I'll return it to you."
Wang Lin let out a sigh. He didn't know how the old man knew he had a Thunder Beast. He slapped his bag of holding and the Thunder Beast immediately flew out. The moment the beast appeared, it didn't even have time to roar before the old man grabbed it and dragged it away. The old man smiled and said, "Very good, it's actually a silver-horned Thunder Beast. Not bad, not bad.
Little fellow, the Old Man won't just take this Thunder Beast. All the messengers of the Thunder Celestial Temple will have their Thunder Beasts belong to the Old Man for a period of time in the future! "
The Thunder Beast finally recovered its senses, but it was trembling in fear. This was the first time it had reacted like this.
Seeing that the old man was about to leave, Wang Lin clenched his teeth and loudly said, "With Senior's cultivation level, is taking something that belongs to junior just like this?"
The old man stopped and turned around to look at Wang Lin. He let out a laugh and his eyes were filled with admiration as he said, "Asking for a reward?
Interesting. I can't just use your Thunder Beast for nothing! "
He looked at Wang Lin a few times and then said, "Your cultivation is a mess. Thunder origin soul and thunder body, what are these things? The Old Man will help you!"
With that, his right hand reached out and a large amount of dust gathered in his hand. In the blink of an eye, it turned into a fist-sized ball of light. The old man spat out a mouthful of air and blew it into the ball of light. Without even looking at it, he waved his hand and the ball of light flew toward Wang Lin.
It was so fast that Wang Lin had no time to dodge. The ball of light directly entered his chest.
After doing all of this, the old man waved his sleeve and said, "Since you can't break through this place, I'll send you on your way!"
With a wave of his sleeve, a powerful force swept Wang Lin, Li Yuan, and the woman named Ge away.
"That iron sword looks a bit familiar. Forget it, the important matter at hand is more important."
The old man looked at the Thunder Beast in his hand. The more he looked at it, the more he liked it. He smiled and said, "Not bad, this Thunder Beast should be able to pull the chains after the Old Man cast a spell on it!"
The Thunder Beast carefully looked at the old man. Its heart was pounding, but it didn't dare to make a sound.
The old man's body flickered and he disappeared with the Thunder Beast. However, almost an instant later, he reappeared. He looked back at where Wang Lin disappeared and muttered, "How much of that breath did I blow?
Uh … I think it was a bit too much … That little guy should be fine … Whatever, if he didn't die, then he really is the Old Man's fated person. "
The old man took a step forward and disappeared.
With a wave of the old man's sleeve, Wang Lin's group of three pierced through the thick fog ahead. Their ears were filled with whistling wind. This kind of speed could no longer be described as a spell, it was like overturning rivers and overturning seas.
