Chapter 1341: Backup Has Arrived

Translator: Sparrow Translations  Editor: Sparrow Translations

When Wang Lin saw the Heavenly Charms Grand Sage exit the outer realm without hesitation, he knew that she was telling the truth. The relics left behind by the Hades Emperor inside the outer realm were indeed placed separately, and the Heavenly Charms Grand Sage had overcome several layers of restrictions to retrieve a portion of the treasure.

Otherwise, emerging now would be meaningless for her. Even though she could force Wang Lin back, Wang Lin just had to continue observing her from afar to prevent her from returning to continue collecting the relics.

Whenever she entered the outer realm, Wang Lin would continue destroying the realm. And when she emerged from the outer realm, Wang Lin would retreat.

With the treasure within the outer realm as bait, the Heavenly Charms Grand Sage would have to face an awkward situation like this if she decided to continue retrieving the relics. But now, she emerged from the outer realm without hesitation and even had the intention of destroying the outer realm herself. Wang Lin and Ning Wan’ge hence knew that she must have reaped a portion of the rewards.

Having obtained a portion of the treasure, the Heavenly Charms Grand Sage now has a greater freedom of choice. She could either advance or retreat.

She did not lack decisiveness herself, but she could also suppress her greed. It would naturally be best to gather all the treasure, but since Wang Lin and Ning Wan’ge have arrived in a hurry, she could not have any lingering desires, or else she would be handing the ultimate control over to Wang Lin and be manipulated by him.

Upon noticing the Heavenly Charms Grand Sage, Wang Lin creased his eyebrows. His mirror-like pupils flickered with a faint glow as endless images flashed amidst the swirling light.

The Heavenly Charms Grand Sage was cloaked in a mystifying cloudy light. Only her eyes could be seen clearly like bright stars.

She took a sweeping glance at Wang Lin before her gaze landed on Ning Wan’ge. She muttered quietly, “How amazing it is that we can stand here facing each other.”

Ning Wan’ge donned white palace robes, revealing her true appearance, unlike the blurry figure previously enveloped by multi-colored light.

The Heavenly Charms Grand Sage looked at her. The chaotic, indiscernible and mist-like images over her body silently changed as the mist gradually dissipated, similarly exposing a young lady draped in purple robes with unparalleled beauty.

Her features were exactly identical to Ning Wan’ge. They both looked like the same person.

After observing her appearance, Wang Lin and Ning Wan’ge’s eyes flickered as they both recalled the lady in grey projected from Ning Wan’ge’s heart when she first fell into Wang Lin’s illusory realm. From the looks of it now, this was the deepest knot in Ning Wan’ge’s heart, which even she could not notice, ever since she lost her memories.

The greatest threat to her, her greatest enemy, was herself. Or in other words, another her.

If both the Heavenly Charms Grand Sage and her cannot locate the Black and Red World and find the Skeleton Spiritual Altar’s Resetting Ritual, then their greatest chance of regaining their memories would be either one of them swallowing and cultivating the other once both of them met.

Ning Wan’ge wanted to speak, but the Heavenly Charms Grand Sage’s gaze froze. The smile on her face faded away as she suddenly directed her vision towards Wang Lin.

She looked carefully into Wang Lin’s eyes then asked nonchalantly, “This class of spells is indeed marvelous, but how will you integrate the Buddhist spells with the secret teachings of the Ancient Satanic Sect? Back then, the Devil Buddha Wu Bei did enter the Satanic Sect through the Buddhist Sect, but it’s different from your case. The Heavenly Classic of the Way’s Virtues that your sect possesses is indeed enigmatic.”

Upon hearing this, Wang Lin’s expression remained unchanged. His eyes still flickered with a seemingly ordinary yet mysterious and unpredictable glow.

He could unleash his Two Elements Heart Curse without warning or sound, submerging the opponent into his trap without the opponent even realizing. However, the Heavenly Charms Grand Sage still wielded extraordinary strength, and could quickly remedy the effects of the curse and restabilize her spirit.

Even though Wang Lin did not reveal his original true form, a great demon in the Vipralopa Stage was still as powerful as she would be, incomparable to both the Yun Cheng Hades and the Ning Feng Hades.

The Heavenly Charms Grand Sage looked at Wang Lin and gently closed her eyes.

Even though she was unaware that the Jing Yan Hades and the Yun Cheng Hades was rushing over behind Wang Lin and Ning Wan’ge, she inevitably brooded over the possibility of other Celestial Sect members joining them later upon seeing Wang Lin now, especially their leader Lin Feng.

Lin Feng now reigned supreme over the Divine Lands with his Heaven-Destroying Sword, and would not leave so easily. The Origins Celestial Dragon would be unable to leave the Black Sea, and the Hades Tribe’s current leader, the Illusory Sun Hades, would be unable to enter the Divine Lands. Similarly, the Heavenly Charms Grand Sage, the Heavenly Grandmaster Grand Sage, the Crimson Gorilla Grand Sage, the Earth Dragon King, the Shen Dragon King, and all other great demons in the Vipralopa Stage would not be able to enter the human world of the Divine Lands without relying on their last resorts.

The Celestial Sect of Wonders eliminated Liang Pan and Zhu Hongwu, completely colonizing the Ying Sea. Both the human cultivation world and the demon tribes of the Barren Expanses could only look on reluctantly, unable to act due to Lin Feng and his Heaven-Destroying Sword.

However, no one could confidently assert that Lin Feng would never leave the Divine lands. After all, Lin Feng has comparatively greater initiative.

For the Heavenly Charms Grand Sage, seizing the moment to eliminate Wang Lin to prevent future complications was the right thing to do. Under normal circumstances, who would have the time to engage in a leisurely chat with Ning Wan’ge?

Even if they had things to discuss, or if Ning Wan’ge could be put to further use, the Heavenly Charms Grand Sage should still capture her first and leave this place before having any other considerations.

But right before this, the Heavenly Charms Grand Sage realized that she could not suppress the thoughts churning in her heart, inflating them intangibly and unknowingly. This alarmed her instantly.

Among the great demon tribes, past and present, the one with the deepest understanding of the humans’ Ancient Satanic Sect would undoubtedly be the Hades Empress, perhaps even more so than the Hades Emperor, who was not the slightest bit concerned about them.

As the Hades Emperor’s disciple and the crystallization of her blood when she was studying her demonic spells, Mo Yunzi also has a certain understanding of the Ancient Satanic Sect’s mantras.

Although this technique was starkly different, the knowledgeable Heavenly Charms Grand Sage quickly pinpointed the root of the problem, and identified the underlying tricks behind Wang Lin’s Two Elements Heart Curse. That being said, Wang Lin’s Two Elements Heart Curse was nonetheless mysterious and unpredictable, and even the Heavenly Charms Grand Sage could not discern its true qualities. Even though she stabilized her spirit, she could not tell when she would fall prey to the curse’s imperceptible manipulation.

The Heavenly Charms Grand Sage quickly regained her composure and did not say anything else. She stared at Wang Lin as her body emitted an apocalyptic aura, as though the heavens, earth and the whole of creation had reached the end of the road.

The shapeless black energy faded in and out of view, seemingly illusory yet real at the same time, and spread through the void space. Even a space as chaotic as the Void Battleground exuded a rotting and decaying aura.

Wang Lin’s expression did not change. In the time when the Heavenly Charms Grand Sage broke free of the Two Elements Heart Curse and restablized her emotions, he has already carried Ning Wan’ge and retreated, teleporting away immediately.

The Heavenly Charms Grand Sage’s eye pupils contracted slightly upon seeing this.

Wang Lin’s fearless and cold-hard personality was widely known throughout the Divine Lands and the Barren Expanses. Even when faced with the Alpha Destiny Tribulation or any opponent stronger than him, he was not someone who would retreat or admit defeat that easily.

To teleport away now without hesitation, he clearly had no intentions of enduring unnecessary suffering. His expression also meant that …

The Heavenly Charms Grand Sage’s body abruptly dissolved into a cloud of grey mist. Then, amidst the vibrating void space, a magnificent ray of golden light fired outwards in a blast, crossing the entire dark void space, creating a sense of distance in the endless, directionless Void Battleground.

In its wake, the majestic golden light created eight rainbow-colored rings of light which danced across the sky in all directions, resulting in ever-changing weather phenomena. It was the Higan Golden Bridge!

A person ten meters tall stood atop the golden bridge. He donned elegant robes, with a scroll in his hand and a spinning Taiji Diagram on his forehead. It was Zhu Yi, who has exposed his Virtual Entity.

Beside Zhu Yi stood a tall young man with a smirk scribbled on his face. It was Shi Tianhao.

Wherever the light from the Higan Golden Bridge shone, the grey cloudy mist would dissipate. Upon seeing them, the Heavenly Charms Grand Sage knew that her plans had been scrambled. She could not bother destroying the gourd-like outer realm as she flashed brilliantly amidst the grey cloud of mist, galloping away frantically into the distance in a ray of light.

At the same time, in the faraway void space, a fiery red glow flickered and burnt through the darkness, revealing the gigantic figures of the Jing Yan Hades and the Yun Cheng Hades.

The Heavenly Charms Grand Sage stopped her advance and stood alongside the approaching duo.

Even though both sides were not exactly amicable, the Heavenly Charms Grand Sage and the Jing Yan Hades did not mind joining forces against the more powerful Celestial Sect of Wonders.

Their demonic energy collided against Zhu Yi’s Higan Golden Bridge across the void space, about to ignite another Void Storm.

The strength of the Jing Yan Hades surpassed ordinary cultivators in the Cardinal Tribulations Beginning Stage by miles. His abhijina and demonic energy could even rival Zhu Yi and his Higan Golden Bridge. On the other hand, the Heavenly Charms Grand Sage and the Yun Cheng Hades inched out a slight advantage over Wang Lin, Shi Tianhao and Ning Wan’ge, with all three lacking Magical Treasures of Destiny.

But it’s a pity that the Heavenly Charms Grand Sage and the Jing Yan Hades could not build rapport easily.

Zhu Yi stood atop the Higan Golden Bridge and uttered calmly, “Heavenly Charms Grand Sage, these are the people whom the Hades Emperor instructed to remain in the Greater World when your Hades Tribe goes into hiding.”

Upon hearing this, the Jing Yan Hades and the Yun Cheng Hades did not budge, but their gaze turned steely.

Ning Wan’ge landed beside the entrance to the outer realm and chimed lightly, “A portion of the things in there is in the Heavenly Charms Grand Sage’s hands.”

With Ning Wan’ge’s voice still trailing off, the flowing ray of light morphed from the Heavenly Charms Grand Sage suddenly flashed across the void space and continued bounding off in an instant.

“Dream Holy Woman Ning Wan’ge, did you give yourself this name? I hope we’ll have a chance to have a long chat in the future.” THe Heavenly Charms Grand Sage’s deep and husky voice reverberated through the space, lingering on for a good while.

The Jing Yan Hades and the Yun Cheng Hades took a good look at Wang Lin and his company before retreating slightly, disappearing into the open slit in the void space. The fiery red glow dissipated as the slit gradually closed up.

Shi Tianhao stood atop the Higan Golden Bridge and leaned his head slightly to one side. “Should we chase after them?”

The ‘Yi’ character above Zhu Yi’s head flashed brilliantly as countless rays of light swirled and spiralled in Wang Lin’s eyes. Both of them shook their heads in unison, “We won’t. A member of the Hades Tribe in the Vipralopa Stage is on the Void Battleground and we cannot confirm its whereabouts, but it’s undoubtedly rushing towards us.”

Shi Tianhao nodded and leapt off the Higan Golden Bridge, entering the outer realm. “Then we’ll deal with that before anything else.”
