Chapter 152 – Carving a Bloody Path
As a drop of golden blood flowed out of Shang Guanmo’s forehead, it emitted a gentle light. Wang Lin’s expression remained the same as he reached out and took the drop of blood.
After scanning it, Wang Lin swallowed it without hesitation. The drop of blood was now within his consciousness and surrounded by his Ji Realm. Right now, all he needed was a single thought to kill Shang Guanmo.
Similarly, if Wang Lin dies, then Shang Guanmo will also die.
Soul essence blood is like a restriction, only much more direct. Although one’s consciousness appears solid, it is actually extremely fragile. Once one retains too many drops of soul essence blood, it will cause one’s own consciousness to enter a state of chaos, resulting in unimaginable consequences.
Therefore, taking someone’s soul essence blood is only a temporary measure, and many cultivators dislike doing it. After all, there are thousands of restrictions that do the exact same thing.
There’s also another thing: the soul essence blood can only be extracted if the cultivator willingly gives it to him. Otherwise, unless one possesses extremely powerful techniques, it’s impossible to force it out.
Shang Guanmo was also cornered. He knew that Wang Lin wouldn’t forgive him easily and would most likely impose some kind of restrictions. The reason he begged Wang Lin to accept him as a disciple was to give Wang Lin a reason to let him live.
However, he never expected that Wang Lin wouldn’t care at all. Only then was he forced to hand over his soul essence blood. Only after seeing Wang Lin accept the soul essence blood did his heart finally calm down a bit.
Wang Lin stared at him coldly before turning around and coldly saying to Mu Nan, “Continue to lead the way.”
After Wang Lin killed the first elder of the Fighting Evil Sect, he knew he had to exterminate them. If he had only killed a disciple, it wouldn’t have been a problem, but since he had killed an elder, they would definitely come looking for him. He was no longer the naive village boy he once was; he had grown a lot.
Everything that happened after he killed Teng Li taught Wang Lin many things. Since he had already killed one, then he might as well kill ten. Since he had already killed ten, then he might as well annihilate the Fighting Evil Sect.
Only by exterminating the entire Fighting Evil Sect could he prevent further trouble in the future. With this in mind, he grabbed Li Muwan and quickly flew forward. At the same time, the attraction technique formed two large hands, grabbed Mu Nan and Mu Bei, and threw them forward.
The two brothers’ faces were pale, but they didn’t dare to complain at all and immediately calmed themselves down and led the way with their heads bowed.
As for Shang Guanmo, he wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and quickly followed behind. He cursed inwardly, but didn’t dare show it, for fear that the demon would think of killing him again.
“Death spell… the technique he used must be a death spell! To be able to master such a cruel technique, he is not simple.” Shang Guangmo continued to size up Wang Lin in his heart while secretly staring at him.
Li Muwan felt extremely complicated emotions. She never expected that Wang Lin would actually reach the Core Formation stage. He also proved what she had been saying all along.
“Against cultivators below the Nascent Soul stage, he is invincible.”
He felt like he was dreaming as he recalled the past few years he had spent in the Devil’s Sea. Everything felt so different from his normal life before.
Li Muwan had previously only refined or refined pills. Whenever she went out, her brother would accompany her. With her brother around, there was no significant danger.
Thanks to her talent in pill refining and formations, she was beloved by the elders and extremely popular within her sect. Many in her generation pursued her, but none managed to capture her heart.
The first time she met Wang Lin, they had mistaken him for Sun Youcai, and there had been a misunderstanding. Thinking back now, if they had truly fought back then, even her brother wouldn’t have been his match. With her current understanding of Wang Lin, she knew that if they had fought, the only outcome would have been their slaughter. Even she, with her beauty, would have died, as it wouldn’t have had any effect on Wang Lin.
“He’s a heartless person…” Li Muwan watched Wang Lin and sighed. After so many years, she knew that Wang Lin wouldn’t have any deviant thoughts about her. After all, in his eyes, she was just a pill furnace.
Li Muwan felt bitterness in her heart. This bitterness grew stronger and stronger until it spread throughout her entire body. Wang Lin frowned as he looked at Li Muwan and said coldly, “Don’t worry. After I’m done handling things here, I’ll return you to the Hou Fen Alliance.”
Li Muwan’s face turned even paler as she bit her lower lip and nodded.
The two of them fell silent. Not long after, the two people leading the way suddenly stopped. Their expressions were extremely gloomy and unsettling as over a hundred cultivator shadows appeared from the fog before them. Each of them stared at the enormous red “punishment” above Wang Lin’s head. Greed filled their eyes, but within that greed was a hint of fear.
Wang Lin stared coldly at the group and said calmly, “Continue leading the way. If anyone dares to block our path, kill them!”
Shang Guanmo realized that this was his chance and he had to do a good job. He jumped out and landed in front of Mu Nan and Mu Bei. He smiled at them and said, “A bunch of trashy Foundation Establishment cultivators. Listen carefully: anyone who dares to block our path will die!”
As they continued forward, all the cultivators stepped aside. None of them had planned to act from the start; they all just wanted to see what kind of person had activated the Hundred Days Ten Thousand Demon Killing Order.
The ten corpses trapped by the dragon veins behind Wang Lin made their bodies shiver. Even if they wanted to act, they would hesitate after seeing those corpses.
However, news of the Hundred Days Ten Thousand Demon Killing Order spread too quickly. Soon, everyone within a ten million kilometer radius of Nan Dou knew about it and began to ask questions. Gradually, more and more cultivators appeared in the sky.
Along the way, Wang Lin encountered these types of cultivators occasionally. Because so many cultivators appeared, their speed was affected. Wang Lin became impatient. After seeing the greed in their eyes, he wanted to kill them all.
There were also many cultivators following behind them with evil intentions.
Mu Nan and Mu Bei’s hearts trembled. Along the way, they encountered many people with higher cultivation levels than them. Even some of the elders who usually never showed their faces followed behind them.
This made them extremely uneasy. Forget them, even Shang Guanmo was nervous. If this continued, it would start to attract the attention of cultivators outside the Na Dou region. After that, it would be hard to say whether a Nascent Soul cultivator would appear or not.
He felt extremely worried and secretly wondered why the demon hadn’t started killing yet. If it were him, he would have started killing and used his power to suppress the situation. If more people gathered, the situation would become complicated.
The countless cultivators surrounding them caused Li Muwan to feel a bit afraid, but after seeing Wang Lin, she calmed down a bit.
Wang Lin’s gaze grew colder as he suddenly stopped and stared at the surrounding cultivators with a cold smile on his face. His cold voice spread throughout the crowd. “Anyone who remains here after three breaths will die!”
After that, he closed his eyes. After a breath, he opened them. They were filled with a red glint. He shifted from holding Li Muwan’s arm to her waist. Without even having time to savor the soft feeling, he suddenly struck back.
The Ji Realm’s Divine Sense spread out rapidly, and a golden light shot out from its mouth, disappearing after a few flashes. This was Wang Lin’s first time launching a killing spree.
Killing Foundation Establishment cultivators within the Ji Realm was as easy as crushing ants. After hearing countless miserable screams, the remaining cultivators were terrified and immediately retreated.
Finally, most of the cultivators used all their spiritual energy to run, but before most of them could run far, there was a sudden flash of golden light and their heads exploded.
Wang Lin’s face was extremely cold and cruel. As his icy gaze swept over any cultivator, they would bleed from their orifices and die a miserable death.
Every time a body fell from the sky, the dragon vein behind it would create a new branch and bring the body back.
Wang Lin’s speed didn’t slow down. Instead, he accelerated even further. His primary targets were the Core Formation cultivators. As for the Foundation Establishment cultivators, they were only slightly affected by the impact.
At this moment, none of the cultivators around had any greed in their minds. Greed had been replaced by terror. With each kill, the word “Punishment” turned a little redder until it was like a bright candle in the darkness. It was so red that it looked like it could bleed.
Furthermore, all the fleeing cultivators were terrified by the golden light. Every time it appeared, someone would mysteriously die.
In just an hour, most of the fleeing cultivators had been killed by the crystal swords, and countless people had died in Wang Lin’s Ji Realm.
There were already more than 1,000 corpses entangled in the dragon veins behind Wang Lin. The dragon veins were like a cloak of death flowing behind Wang Lin.
At this moment, in the mist 1,000 kilometers away, stood seven or eight old demonic cultivators. None of them spoke, but the fear in their eyes grew increasingly apparent.
