When Wang Lin reformed his body from the River Styx Primordial Water and escaped certain death, it was still understandable if the others couldn’t fathom what just happened. When Xu Anda witnessed what just transpired, his eyes closed into slits as he thought to himself, “The River Styx Nirvana?! The most powerful spell of the River Styx Nirvana Mantra. However, it should only be effective as a Spell Of Rebirth after the formation of the River Styx Nirvana Dao Fruit!”
The founder of the Yellow Springs Satanic Sect, the River Styx Priest, was the second disciple of the Emperor of the Dead, and also Xu Anda’s senior. Even though both parties never really interacted with one another, Xu Anda was still well-informed about the details regarding the River Styx Nirvana Mantra.
The most powerful spell of the River Styx Nirvana Mantra was not reflected in its offensive or defensive powers. Instead, it was a supreme Spell of Rebirth, and it attained quite a reputation in the days that the Yellow Springs Satanic Sect was still around.
Xu Anda wasn’t too surprised that Wang Lin possessed the Pearl of Styx and practiced the River Styx Nirvana Mantra. However, the fact that Wang Lin could use the River Styx Nirvana Spell when he was only in the first-level immortal soul stage struck Xu Anda dumb.
“Wait a minute – it’s not the pure River Styx Nirvana Spell, is it? He incorporated the original spell into the mantras of the Celestial Sect of Wonders to create a new spell?” Xu Anda recovered quickly as his eyes sparkled with inscrutable lights. “Such magical effects…”
Similar to converting the Avici Undying Body into the River Styx Undying Body, this originated from Wang Lin’s study of the Heavenly Classic of the Way’s Virtues. He transformed the River Styx Nirvana into the Extreme Dao Nirvana Spell – it was a spell that belonged to him, a Spell of Rebirth unique to his own lineage.
The white lights embodied the energy of recovery and revival, and became the skeleton. The black energies embodied the concept of death and destruction, and were the veins and capillaries. Life and death phased between each other and used the River Styx Primordial Water as the base molecule as well as the preparations that came before. All these principles laid dormant until the last moment when the spell of rebirth was cast, and dragged the caster from the edge of the cliff of irrevocable death back down and into life.
However, being able to cast the Extreme Dao Nirvana Spell was only the beginning as Wang Lin’s next move rendered everyone speechless with shock.
The cross formed by the black and white lights seemed to embody a concept that was so profound and sophisticated that it was near inexplicable.
Following Wang Lin’s remark, the star assimilated by the Zhujian Grand Sage and the frightening Turbid Wave Demonic Arrow mysteriously entangled itself in the black light, and abruptly changed direction at the intersection between the two streaks of light and entered the white rays. In the next moment, the arrow flew into the far end of the sky and away from its original target.
Wang Lin’s remark that the Zhujian Grand Sage was going to miss made it seem like his words themselves was a spell that forced the Zhujian Grand Sage to listen and obey.
Nobody believed that the Turbid Wave Demonic Arrow was off the target and its trajectory missed Wang Lin altogether. Wang Lin’s prediction and the outcome of it all, the fact that the demonic arrow missed its initial target, was all because of the effects of Wang Lin’s spell.
The crossroad-like figure formed by the intersection between the black and white rays of light drifted above the Netherworld Taiji Diagram. Even the Cang Heaven Spell Blade, who had been around since the Antiquity Age and had seen a great many things, was shell-shocked. The others, including Xu Anda, the Rotary Turtle Grand Sage were equally astonished.
“What exactly happened?” Xu Anda’s eyes sparkled. “Even though he came back to life with the Spell of Rebirth, he is a lot weaker than before and his current state is far weaker than before. How can he dodge the second arrow so easily?”
“Still, it’s not exactly a ‘dodge’ as it appears that he manipulated that demonic arrow…” Xu Anda amazed. He wouldn’t have been able to take the arrow fired by the Zhujian Grand Sage head-on, and Wang Lin’s actions far exceeded his imagination.
The Rotary Turtle Grand Sage extended his head out of the shell. An inscrutable expression could be seen from the pair of old turtle eyes as he stared at Wang Lin. “Mo Lin didn’t miss – this guy’s spell is just too sinister!”
The one that was the most surprised was undoubtedly the caster of the Turbid Wave Demonic Arrow, the Zhujian Grand Sage.
He used the demonic eye to lock on to Wang Lin’s position before firing the second arrow, and his second arrow couldn’t possibly have missed its target.
It wasn’t that his arrow could not be avoided, but judging from the strength previously displayed by Wang Lin as well as from the fact that he was in a weakened state after casting the Spell of Rebirth, the Zhujian Grand Sage was confident that his arrow would hit its target.
However, the reality before him knocked his socks off.
“The problem lies in the cross formed by the black and white rays of light!” The Zhujian Grand Sage’s eyes were sullen and heavy. In an instant, he dispelled his surprise and astonishment amongst other negative emotions from his mind.
The spell that Wang Lin just used was completely novel to the Zhujian Grand Sage, and he developed a feeling that the situation was slowly slipping out of his grasp.
He had half a mind to withdraw, and to observe quietly and understand Wang Lin’s mantras properly before making a decision.
Even though this made him look weak, it was a real consideration in a battle of life and death and was definitely the smarter thing to do.
This was especially so after Wang Lin negated the effects of the Turbid Wave Demonic Arrow with such a strange and mysterious spell. Still, he sustained even more injuries and his immortal soul avatar was heavily damaged. Over a long period of time, a war of attrition still benefited the Zhujian Grand Sage.
Ever since the beginning of the battle, the Zhujian Grand Sage had already thrown his dignity out of the window and the only thing he wished for was to defeat and kill Wang Lin. He would be completely fine with using the same method as he did before.
However, Wang Lin wasn’t about to give him this opportunity. The cross formed by black and white light on the Netherworld Taiji Diagram surged across the void in the next moment and crashed down on the Zhujian Grand Sage.
The intersecting cross of black and white light appeared light as a feather, but the Zhujian Grand Sage found it hard to avoid it. Even though the two rays of light were clearly visible, they seemed like they were from another world and were extremely profound.
Its advance wasn’t too fast, but it appeared to ignore the existence of space and thus its speed couldn’t be measured with the usual standards of time.
Chilly light flickered in his eyes as the Zhujian Grand Sage realized it was almost impossible to dodge this attack. He grunted once before the bones on his back started to twist and quiver.
He converted his spine into a bow once again and sustained a new round of injuries. He channeled his blood essence into a single red-colored arrow that exuded extreme evil and aggression as he pointed it towards the Netherworld Taiji Diagram formed by Wang Lin’s immortal soul – he wanted to respond to an attack with an attack of his own, and murder Wang Lin before anything else.
A single star lit up on the tip of the blood-red arrow.
His backbone was the bow; his blood essence was the arrow. He concentrated the entirety of his demonic energy, and this was the most powerful form of the Turbid Wave Demonic Arrow. The power of the stars he had assimilated before was also infused into the tip of the arrow and raised its destructive capabilities to the highest possible level – this was the most powerful blow that the Zhujian Grand Sage can unleash at his current level of mastery.
Even though he was cruel and cunning, and loved to employ guerilla warfare tactics, he didn’t lack the courage or the aggression when he had to clash with his opponent head-on.
However, just as he was going to pull the bow back to unleash the arrow, Wang Lin’s emotionless voice came out from the Netherworld Taiji Diagram once again. “You’re dead.”
In the same moment as when Wang Lin’s voice came out, the Zhujian Grand Sage quickly realized that he had been soundlessly enveloped in the flowing white light in an instant.
Inside the flowing black light, the Zhujian Grand Sage was taken unaware as his blood and flesh began to decay, and his entire pool of demonic energy started to erode and leak out of his body. Even his undying demonic soul was starting to crumble, and he felt as if life itself was surging towards an unforgiving and irrevocable end.
Death was a concept that the Zhujian Grand Sage was relatively unfamiliar with. However, the dark cloud of death loomed over his head and all this seemed to have happened from something Wang Lin just said.
The Zhujian Grand Sage wanted to struggle, but he realized that even his own consciousness was becoming murky and blurry.
This powerful demon was backed into a corner. He roared into the sky as the arrow that was charged to the highest possible level of power was swiftly released, and shot straight towards Wang Lin!
“You’re the dead one!” the Zhujian Grand Sage’s lone eye turned cold. The Mythical Time-Space Revolving Formation also started to transform.
The twelve giant pillars of light shimmered into vision once again. The pillars of the Immemorial Celestial Dragon, the Golden-Feathered Great Roc, the Extreme Spiritual Divine Monkey and the Hun Dun grew a little more dull than before.
Another four pillars grew brighter than the others – these included the Phoenix, the Xuanwu, and the Qilin. These demons possessed either relatively more powerful defensive abilities or they were more adept with the forces of life and rebirth.
The last pillar contained a tribe of demons that had long been extinct – the Jue Zheng Tribe. They had a bear’s body but a face of a human, and possessed immense physical strength. Their vitality was impressive, as much as the shine on their golden fur all over their body. They also possessed defensive capabilities so formidable that they rivaled that of the pure-blooded Xuanwu.
The light pillars around these four demons radiated as the other eight light pillars gradually disappeared. These four light pillars slowly fused into a single giant pillar that enveloped the Zhujian Grand Sage.
This was the effects of the Twelve Sages Heavenly Revolving Formation – it was converted from the Mythical Time-Space Revolving Formation into the Heaven’s Nirvana Revolving Formation.
The protection from the Heaven’s Nirvana Revolving Formation brought the Zhujian Grand Sage back from the edge of death while he launched his own assault at the same time.
If the black and white cross was over his body, there was no way it could block his arrow.
The Netherworld Taiji Diagram formed by Wang Lin’s immortal unleashed the Real and Illusory World Spell at once. The gates opened and phased between the real and the virtual world in an attempt to negate the Zhujian Grand Sage’s arrow.
However, the explosive force that contained his blood essence and intense effort was truly formidable and interfered with the effects of Wang Lin’s Real and Illusory World Spell.
Even though this whittle down the power of the Turbid Wave Demonic Arrow, the Real and Illusory World was still broken, and the arrow struck upon Wang Lin’s immortal soul avatar once more and blew his immortal soul into smithereens yet again.
On the other side, the Heaven’s Nirvana Revolving Formation managed to save the Zhujian Grand Sage’s life. However, the two continual changes caused the projection of the magic formation to dissipate entirely.
“It appears that his spell is not perfect after all. If not, the Heaven’s Nirvana Revolving Formation won’t be able to protect me,” the Zhujian Grand Sage recalled Wang Lin’s mysterious spell from before as he reflected on his experience. “Still, I have finally defeated and killed this little bastard…”
Before he could heave a sigh of relief, a dot of white light sparkled in the far end of the void.
The Zhujian Grand Sage could only watch on with his appalled eye and his jaw half open as Wang Lin’s body appeared – yet again – inside the speck of white light.
The Cang Heaven Spell Blade exclaimed from the side, “The Life Substitution Heavenly Pill!”
The sophistication of the concepts embodied by this sphere of white light represented the very profundity of the Life Substitution Heavenly Pill!
This was one of the four most important pills passed down by the Great Void Sect. It originated from the Heaven’s Gate, and was first forged by one of their powerful cultivators adept with medicine and pills. The Cang Heaven Spell Blade hadn’t seen this pill in effect for many years, but immediately recognized its origins the moment the sphere of white light glimmered into sight.
When cultivators consumed this pill, they would be able to substitute their lives for a single instance. Except for several exceptions, the cultivator who consumed the pill would be saved. The pill allowed the cultivator to be reborn in another location, so that he could avoid the calamity. The only problem was that this pill only took effect once in the lifetime of the cultivator, and even so, its effects were incredible.
The typically cruel and resilient Zhujian Grand Sage felt a deep sense of hopelessness as he watched Wang Lin come back from the dead. “Can this fellow be killed?”
He couldn’t think anymore as Wang Lin stepped out from within the sphere of white light. In a flash, he was before the Zhujian Grand Sage once more and unleashed the Netherworld Taiji Diagram.
Wang Lin’s voice rebounded between heaven and earth as he shouted, “Die!”
The black and white cross shimmered once more. The Zhujian Grand Sage found himself trapped inside the white light like before, and in the blink of an eye, he turned into the path of flowing black light at the intersection and was on the path to destruction yet again!
The Zhujian Grand Sage struggled with all his might and all his demonic power.
It was useless!
He channeled his undying demonic soul and fought.
Repressed!
He incinerated the stars he had assimilated for power.
Dispelled at the first instance!
He revealed his true form and vast physical strength and blood essence surged.
Everything decayed, and nothing was left behind!
This time, there was no Twelve Sages Heavenly Revolving Formation to protect him, and the only thing waiting for the Zhujian Grand Sage was a certain death.
There was no reversing it, there was no changing it.
It felt as if this was his destiny.
