History’s Number 1 Founder

In the Barren Expanses, Mount Yujing was being crushed by the Lingyuan Mountains from below and the Twelve Sages Heavenly Revolving Formation from above, and the situation was becoming more perilous.

The Heavenly Charms Grand Sage, the Heavenly Grandmaster Grand Sage and the Crimson Gorilla Grand Sage were all Vipralopa Stage demons and they had aid of the ancestral ground of the ape demons, Mount Lingyuan, and the support of the Twelve Sages Heavenly Revolving. This pressured even an individual as powerful as Lin Feng.

The jade-like white clouds expanded out from Mount Yujing and blocked off the demonic energies rising up from Mount Lingyuan. The Crucible of the Divine Lands, which was anchoring the Two Elements of Creation Formation reversed the Heaven and Earth Change as it resisted the downward pressure of the giant pillar of light.

Lin Feng’s eyes were still stable as he gazed into the endless void space. “I have to thank that Karmic Theory Debate. Besides perfecting the Buddhist Way of Karma, Wang Lin obtained a deeper understanding of the great Dao of Heaven and Earth. His mastery of the Two Elements Origins-Returning Scripture is possibly the highest amongst the rest of my disciples.”

“Wang Lin consolidated his Way of the Two Elements of Creation and made his first step in its foundations. This is worthy of congratulation. Perhaps there were some doubts in the past, but the intense pressure from his enemies will help him solidify his foundations.”

( AllNovel )   It wasn’t hard for the Heavenly Charms Grand Sage to guess the meaning in Lin Feng’s words. However, what he just said still sent a chill down her spine as her instincts told her there would be some unforeseen circumstances coming her way.

She passed a voice-projected message to the Sirius Grand Sage, very nearly subconsciously, and immediately instructed him to hurry over to the Zhujian Grand Sage and the others to reinforce them.

At this moment, in the regions outside the Greater World in the void space above it, the Rotary Turtle Grand Sage established the Sealed Space and arrested the entire area.

Inside this Sealed Space, Wang Lin took a deep breath as he faced off the Zhujian Grand Sage and his entire being let go of his human form and transformed into a gigantic Netherworld Taiji Diagram.

There seemed to be a sprawling Netherworld crafted upon the Netherworld Taiji Diagram.

Light shadows flickered at the end of the black and yellow path, while the dull river flowed in tranquil silence. There was an ancient black stone bridge erected above the river – one side connected to giant hall that resembled an entire city. The gates to the hall opened up, and a black and white wheel spiraled continuously while a mirror-like stone resided in the deeper regions of the hall.

This was Wang Lin’s Immortal Soul Avatar. However, there was a missing part in a corner of the Taiji Diagram, and cracks also appeared on the black stone bridge in the Netherworld. These were the marks left behind by the injury he sustained from the Turbid Wave Demonic Arrow.

The enormous Taiji Diagram rotated continuously as vast energies emanated from within.

The Zhujian Grand Sage’s eyes were as cold as always, but they were a lot gloomier as radiant starlight seemed to radiate from his body. It felt as if individual stars were condensing on his giant body and caused his entire being to increase in power and strength.

A single Turbid Wave Demonic Arrow appeared in his right claw once again. He nocked the arrow on the bow, and the crackle of the pullback action was followed by a dull hum as the world trembled.

A tiny speck of starlight radiated at the tip of the arrow. It appeared as if the tip of the arrow absorbed the power of the stars, and firing off the shot possessed the power of a star crashing against the earth.

The natural talent of the Zhujian Grand Sage was special. When he assimilated the stars in the third-level undying demonic soul stage with his demon soul, he wouldn’t use them unless it was the last resort – the reason was because if he channeled the power of the stars he had assimilated, a Turbid Wave Demonic Arrow would release a star from his arsenal.

For the Zhujian Grand Sage, this was a permanent loss and he would have to re-assimilate another star all over again to replenish his loss.

This was the reason why the Zhujian Grand Sage avoided using this method. When he battled other great demons at the same level of mastery, if not for the dominance of the Turbid Wave Demonic Arrow, he was typically at a disadvantage.

However, the high price that he had to pay exchanged for a force to be reckoned with, a force that most individuals at the same level of mastery were unable to withstand.

If he wasn’t confident enough, the Zhujian Grand Sage wouldn’t waste one of his stars for no reason.

Once this star arrow was released, he would draw blood and he would end the battle right here.

“I will withdraw from the battle if you give up the ring, on account of your master. If not, you can’t keep your life anymore,” the Zhujian Grand Sage laughed coldly, “If you resist so stubbornly, I will end you right here and now.”

Wang Lin didn’t respond as the Netherworld Taiji Diagram rotated slowly and released a profound aura of energy.

The Zhujian Grand Sage nodded his head and said, “Then your master will have to come and collect your corpse.”

As his voice dropped, the aura around the Zhujian Grand Sage changed and the starlight surrounding him started flaring up. They eventually transformed into flowing rays of light as they trail-blazed through the air and concentrated upon the single eye of the Zhujian Grand Sage.

There wasn’t a single tinge of emotion in his eye. It was if the eye belonged to a dead person as he glared at the Netherworld Taiji Diagram before him. There was a strange reaction coming from deep within, and he locked on to Wang Lin.

It was a force that bypassed the barriers of space, transcended the limitations of time and broke through the mask of illusion and went straight for the very essence of the target.

Blocking was hard, dodging was challenging as this strange reaction enabled the Zhujian Grand Sage to connect the nocked arrow to Wang Lin.

It felt as if once the arrow was released, it was destined to strike into the heart of Wang Lin’s immortal soul avatar.

This was another insidious spell in the arsenal of the Zhujian Grand Sage. He had to incinerate his own mana and sacrifice a star in exchange for the power to lock on to a target.

The price was high, but the rewards were equally good.

The Zhujian Grand Sage stared ahead at Wang Lin before his single eye suddenly closed. And it was at that moment that the Turbid Wave Demonic Arrow left the bow.

Once the arrow was released, it vanished into thin air and the moment it appeared, it was right before the Netherworld Taiji Diagram formed by Wang Lin’s immortal soul.

The bright starlight became extremely blinding as it appeared to burn through every ounce of warmth and light within while it erupted along with the arrow to produce a force so immense that he swept through the Netherworld inside Wang Lin’s immortal soul avatar.

Web-like cracks burst through the Road to River Styx as the rolling waves of the River of Forgetfulness appeared to stop completely. The Narakade Bridge was already cracked, and was immediately blown into four separate pieces. The sprawling Yama Imperial Pavilion trembled vigorously as the bricks and cement that the great pavilion was made up of started falling out – even the Three Life Stone hidden deep within the pavilion saw a single crack across its body.

After the initial burst of light, absolute darkness was birthed in the center of the radiant light and everything started to collapse into this patch of absolute darkness. Somehow, an unstoppable force of gravity developed and the darkness transformed into a black hole that swept everything up into a whirlpool and sucked everything inside.

Wang Lin’s immortal soul was arrested by the black hole as well, and was continuously sucked into it. The shattering Netherworld was laid to waste and became a pile of ruins as it was consumed by the black hole. Even the Taiji Diagram formed by Wang Lin’s immortal soul twisted out of proportion as it was sucked into the black hole.

At this moment, the single eye of the Zhujan Grand Sage suddenly opened and sparkled as the black hole suddenly exploded!

The black hole detonated and annihilated even the void space around it as a chaotic mess appeared in the location of the explosion.

Both the Cang Heaven Spell Blade and Xu Anda froze in shock as a look of worry came across the Cang Heaven Spell Blade. Even Xu Anda’s eyes sparkled with an inscrutable expression, but his thoughts were still a mystery.

The Heavenly Gods-Sealing Banner swayed in the wind as a black-clothed youth appeared beneath it and stared ahead at the ruins before him. The area of nothingness was filled by the Chaos before the hole was plugged once again by the void – however, everything that was inside no longer existed.

The old voice of the Rotary Turtle Grand Sage rang out, “Mo Lin, the ring!”

“Don’t worry. My first target was his immortal soul. This block by the immortal soul should mean that the ring is completely fine. However, when the void cracked open, the chaotic turbulence sent the ring and some of his possessions elsewhere – but it will be within the area of effect of the Mythical Time-Space Revolving Formation.” The Zhujian Grand Sage explained as his single eye surveyed the void space around him.

An intense ominous feeling developed in his heart as he turned around to see the Pearl of Styx hovering in midair, and large amounts of River Styx Primordial Water flooded out.

The dull river water materialized into the form of a human, and the physical features made it obvious that it was Wang Lin.

The Zhujian Grand Sage squinted his eyes. “He’s mastered such a powerful Spell of Rebirth?”

There were many types of Spells of Rebirth. Some were stronger, and some were weaker and they weren’t all-powerful. However, the Zhujian Grand Sage’s arrow was unable to break Wang Lin’s Extreme Rebirth Spell.

Between the flashes of light, Wang Lin reformed his human body. It was clear that his face was pale, and he was short of breath as well. However, there was an unprecedented sparkle in his eyes as he stared straight at the Zhujian Grand Sage.

“You have already died once, so you should treasure your current life. I’ve said it before, if you hand over the ring, I will let you live and you can leave.”

The Zhujian Grand Sage overcame his initial astonishment before his single eye started to condense. The acute hostility and the coldness became stronger as well. His reaction was extremely fast and realized that Wang Lin escaped death with his esoteric spell and immediately nocked another arrow on his bow and redirected it at Wang Lin.

“if not, you will die here. Your spell may save you once, but it can’t save you forever.”

Spells of Rebirth were never unlimited in power, and had never been omnipotent. The Zhujian Grand Sage wanted to launch another arrow to end Wang Lin right here and now.

Wang Lin’s face was plain as he said coldly, “You think I ate that arrow for nothing?”

He spun around and unleashed the Netherworld Taiji Diagram once again. However, it was a lot more ravaged than before and there was only a pile of ruins left inside the Netherworld.

“I will fulfill your wish to die.” The Zhujian Grand Sage muttered as he sacrificed yet another star and unleashed the same sinister force towards Wang Lin.

Suddenly, strange flickers of light appeared on the Netherworld Taiji Diagram – one streak was black, and one streak was white.

Two thick light pillars intertwined and ran down Wang Lin’s Taiji Diagram like a cross, which resembled the junction formed by two roads intersecting each other.

When the Zhujian Grand Sage’s demonic arrow appeared once more, the arrow landed upon the light radiance of the cross and was about to destroy it and shatter Wang Lin’s immortal soul for the second time.

However, Wang Lin’s calm voice came out from within the Netherworld Taiji Diagram.

“You’re going to miss.”

Once this was spoken, the Turbid Wave Demonic Arrow released by the Zhujian Grand Sage landed upon the black streak of light. There was a single flash of light and the arrow seemed to lose its autonomy and direction. It didn’t follow the path of the black streak of light – instead, it made a sharp turn at the center of the cross and entered the path of the white streak of light.

In the net moment, the Turbid Wave Demonic Arrow shot out from the white streak of light. It didn’t hit its target and missed the Netherworld Taiji Diagram as it flew out into the far end of the horizon. In a distance far away in the void, bright lights crackled as the arrow exploded once again.
