The Kunlun Mountain Ranges of the Divine Lands.
In the unnoticeable void space above Yun Peak, blanketed by a sea of purple clouds juxtaposed by a black ocean, the White Jade Celestial Mountain hovered quietly amidst the space. Atop the Celestial Mountain, the branches of the Black Heavenly Treasure Tree swayed gently.
Lin Feng himself was inside the Heavenly Cosmic Ray World at the top of the Black Heavenly Treasure Tree. Wang Lin and Ning Wan’ge escorted Big Luo back to the mountain and first went to visit Lin Feng.
“Put Big Luo down first.” Lin Feng had already opened his eyes to gaze at the returning party.
E Shen took a step forward and laid Big Luo down. Lin Feng stretched a hand out, his palm flashing with a smooth radiance. It seemed ordinary at first glance, but countless Formation Patterns and Talisman Runes appeared amidst the glow.
The light swept up Big Luo and he disappeared into the heart of Lin Feng’s palm.
Ning Wan’ge heart throbbed upon witnessing this sight. “Rumours say that the Leader of the Celestial Sect can use his own mana to demonstrate an elite spell formation like the Two Elements of Creation Formation. This formation has a component called the Change of Life and Death, which can reverse life and death. It can kill a living person, and bring the dead back to life. This must be what I’m witnessing now.”
Lin Feng contained Big Luo with his mana then turned his gaze towards Wang Lin and smiled, “Did you reap any new rewards from your deadly battles?”
“I’ve harvested quite a bountiful amount, but I’ve also thought of new ideas regarding our sect’s Two Elements Origins-Returning Scripture, which still needs intricate examination.”
It was not just Wang Lin. Zhu Yi and the others were the same – the more they cultivated, the more they understood the profound depth and endless teachings within the Heavenly Classic of the Way’s Virtues, and many of these align with the natural laws of world. Hence, they always have new discoveries and devise ways to further improve their mantras.
Lin Feng nodded, “Allow your Virtual Entity to recuperate well and continue exploring your mantras. You need not concern yourself with our sect’s own mantras anymore – having studied Buddhist spells for so many years, you must have been enlightened by their profundities. But you’re still a novice when it comes to the Ancient Satanic Sect’s teachings. Their Book of Spells is considerably outstanding, and the Ancient Satanic Heart Curse within this book contains endless possibilities. Ponder over this slowly, I’m sure you’ll glean a lot more than you already have.”
A faint smile appeared on Wang Lin’s face. “I indeed intend to do so.”
Lin Feng tilted his head to one side and looked at Wang Lin. He chuckled, “Do you feel helpless in the face of formidable opponents in the Vipralopa Stage without your Magic Treasure of Destiny with you, especially against demons in the Vipralopa Stage? As you grow continuously, only they would be capable of pressurizing you. In other words, the opponents you’ll face head-on in the future would mostly be at that level.”
Wang Lin answered calmly, “It’s certainly not as easy as facing opponents below the Vipralopa Stage, but I wouldn’t consider this exactly pressurizing. After all, I’ve just cultivated my Virtual Entity.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLin Feng smiled, “Train above the Black Heavenly Treasure Tree after this.”
Wang Lin’s gaze flickered, as if dawning upon something. He smiled faintly and bowed to Lin Feng, “Thank you, Master.”
“Back then when you trained inside the Heavenly Ray Cosmic World, you constantly came into contact with the Black Heavenly Treasure Tree, but you were slightly disorganized and unpolished.” Lin Feng waved his hand and said nonchalantly, “With your intelligence, I believe you would achieve the desired results very quickly, but your Great Satanic Avatar would be unable to duplicate your actual self.”
Wang Lin nodded, “Yes, I understand.”
Lin Feng gazed at him. “Are you sure you don’t want to try connecting with the Imperial Palace of Emperor Tai? Although it hasn’t fully recovered, the emotions inside its Original Soul are gradually stabilizing.”
Wang Lin shook his head. “The Imperial Palace of Emperor Tai is more suitable for suppressing our sect’s Two Elements of Creation Formation than the Crucible of the Divine Lands. The Crucible of the Divine Lands and the Great Heavenly Wheels are incompatible with me. Actually, it’s the same with the Imperial Palace of Emperor Tai. Furthermore, I did not chance upon it or the Great Heavenly Wheels myself.”
Wang Lin appeared calm. He was a pragmatist. In short, he prioritized enhancing his own strength, regardless of which methods he used.
His strength would definitely gain a huge boost with a Magic Treasure of Destiny on hand. Before Zhu Yi and Shi Tianhao rushed to his aid in the Void Battleground, he was merely interfering feebly against the Heaven Charms Grand Sage. But if he possessed a Magic Treasure of Destiny, their circumstances would be immediately swapped, with Wang Lin facing an opponent unable to expose her true form.
In Wang Lin’s heart, he would not vainly decline a magic treasure bestowed by his respected master, but he would be considerate towards Lin Feng and his sect – what would be the most appropriate course of action for the treasure’s potential to be unleashed to the fullest.
“I believe that I would have my own fortuitous encounter soon.” As he said this, Wang Lin smiled, having cleared the doubts of those around him. “You said it yourself, Master, that my heart would be enlightened if I leave my chances to fate.”
Lin Feng chuckled as he shook his head. “Do as you please.”
Wang Lin did not feel any premonition in his heart. He was not really worried, not bursting with anxiety like Zhu Yi. Wang Lin’s fortune and strength were formidable, with very few opponents in existence that would not be steamrolled by him.
However, Ning Wan’ge and E Shen, who adopted his human form from his magic treasure’s Original Soul, were both left speechless by this scene.
The master-disciple pair standing before them were simply frightening.
But when they thought about how the Imperial Palace of Emperor Tai, the Crucible of the Divine Lands and the Great Heavenly Wheels have all fallen into the hands of the Celestial Sect, they instantly realized that the scene before them was completely within expectations.
When the War of the Two Worlds just ended, the Celestial Sect’s magnificent and terrifying arsenal of Mahayana magic treasures had already shocked the world. E Shen himself was one of those treasures, and was even elevated from the Gestation realm to the Mahayana realm by Lin Feng himself.
Even though E Shen had been reborn not long ago, he was still in a dream-like state.
But after Lin Feng dealt with Liang Pan and Zhu Hongwu, everyone would feel even more chills down their spines after recalling that incident.
Above Mahayana magic treasures, the Magic Treasures of Destiny were stronger and rarer, with the power to suppress all Mahayana magic treasures. The number of Magic Treasures of Destiny in the Celestial Sect’s possession, including the Higan Golden Bridge, has already reached a mortifying level.
Before this, throughout the history of the Divine Lands’ human cultivation world, the force in possession of the most Magic Treasures of Destiny was the Great Void Sect. Besides the Supreme Heavenly Mirror and the Great Void Holy Pavilion, they also once had a Magic Treasure of Destiny called the Ninefold Heavenly Staff, but it was destroyed.
After the Ninefold Heavenly Staff was destroyed, the Great Void Sect was left with the Supreme Heavenly Mirror and the Great Void Holy Pavilion, but the Supreme Heavenly Mirror’s position as the greatest treasure in all of the Grand Celestial World was well above all other Magic Treasures of Destiny.
However, the number of Magic Treasures of Destiny that the Celestial Sect now possessed had already reached an unprecedented amount.
As everyone knew very well, they had the Higan Golden Bridge, the Crucible of the Divine Lands, the Imperial Palace of Tai, the Great Heavenly Wheels, and that unbelievably terrifying Heaven-Destroying Sword.
Even though the Imperial Palace of Emperor Tai and the Great Heavenly Wheels are still in a dormant state, they were enough to make the world gasp at their power.
With this thought in mind, Ning Wan’ge and E Shen’s gaze fell onto the person standing behind Lin Feng. There was a beautiful woman standing quietly over there, tall and elegant, expressionless, and with a gaze dull yet cold.
She was the lady whom the entire Grand Celestial World, especially the Barren Expanses, would go nuts over – Xuan Li.
She stood there without a word. She did not have the brazen look she boasted before, withdrawing her bloodlust to an unnoticeable level. She seemed just like Lin Feng, ordinary yet incomprehensible.
After his conversation with Wang Lin, Lin Feng’s gaze landed on Ning Wan’ge as he smiled gently, “Thank you for your trouble, Friend Ning.”
Ning Wan’ge shook her head. “You’re too kind, Sect Master Lin. I should be the one thanking you. You’ve given me a chance to regain my memories and unraveled the biggest knot in my heart.”
She already appeared extremely calm, seemingly composed about everything that had happened in the past. However, there were still times when she inevitably felt as if she was in another world.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmNaturally, Lin Feng could understand her sentiments, and asked, “What plans do you have now, Friend Ning?”
Ning Wan’ge chose to help Wang Lin and the rest, to find the treasures left behind by the Hades Emperor in the gourd-shaped outer realm. This act undoubtedly expressed her attitude and stance.
She was definitely different from the half-demon Mo Yunzi.
Ning Wan’ge’s disposition was calm and non-confrontational, having never came into actual contact or conflict with the Hades Tribe, so she did not grow any burning hatred for the Hades Tribe. However, she has forged a relationship with the Celestial Sect, and was even made an Honorary Elder. Hence, when a conflict erupts between both sides, she would definitely stand with the Celestial Sect.
On a whole, whenever a conflict erupts between the human world and the demon tribes, she would stand with the humans.
So when Lin Feng asked her about her future plans, he was not asking her where she would head to or what she would choose to do next. He was asking how she would deal with the Heavenly Charms Grand Sage.
Ning Wan’ge did not have to ponder too much, having mulled over the issue numerous times on the way here. She promptly replied, “I don’t actually bear much hatred for the Heavenly Charms Grand Sage. If she doesn’t attack me on her own accord, I don’t intend to battle her. We can go our separate ways. If I stay inside the sect, I believe she wouldn’t attack me that easily.”
Lin Feng nodded, “Okay, you can decide for yourself.”
“I feel as if my own bottleneck has loosened after dissolving this immense psychological barrier. I intend to prepare my training in the days to come, and when I’m ready, I’ll attempt the Cardinal Tribulations again,” said Ning Wan’ge.
The Cardinal Tribulations were a great deal for cultivators, not only a major milestone in their cultivation journey, but also a matter of life and death. If they failed, they would perish quicker than they would being slaughtered by an opponent.
Upon hearing Ning Wan’ge’s plans for another attempt at the Cardinal Tribulations, Lin Feng, Wang Lin and E Shen all exclaimed, “I wish you all the best.”
Ning Wan’ge took her leave after thanking them. Wang Lin also departed, first returning to his abode.
Lin Feng sat in the Heavenly Cosmic Ray World. After a while, he flipped his palm out. There, a light flickered and a tall young man appeared from the radiance, landing before Lin Feng. It was Big Luo.
Big Luo’s face was pale, his breath was weak, but his injuries were no longer a hindrance.
He looked at Lin Feng and gently bowed to him as his lips twitched.
Lin Feng appeared calm. With an ache in his heart, Big Luo could not lower his body any further.
Big Luo’s face was becoming paler by the minute, but he then heard Lin Feng mutter, “Talk me through everything that happened.”
Lin Feng’s expression was warm, with a smile cracking at the edges of his mouth. Upon seeing this, he became a lot more relaxed but his gaze showed more traces of confusion and uncertainty.
