Chapter 176 – Catching the wind packet
When Hunchback Meng was caught by the king’s tornado, he was drowned by a flood of hatred.
Wang Lin’s body turned into a puff of smoke as he quickly escaped the tornado group. Several tornadoes scattered around, trying to stop Wang Lin just as they had Hunchback Meng.
Wang Lin sneered. His eyes were completely calm, without a trace of panic. As the group of tornadoes drew closer, one of the tornadoes suddenly accelerated and arrived beside Wang Lin. The tornado lifted Wang Lin and quickly charged out of the tornado’s encirclement.
All of this happened too fast for the other tornadoes to react, and even if they could, they wouldn’t be smart enough to realize the problem.
Wang Lin stood inside the tornado and charged towards the vortex towards the second test. As he charged out of the tornado, he secretly ordered the second demon to control the other one.
He was able to escape so quickly because up until now everything had gone according to plan.
The king creature scanned the distance before landing on Wang Lin’s tornado. It revealed a confused expression before letting out a roar. All the tornadoes began to chase after Wang Lin.
As for the tornado king, he had a strange expression on his face as he carried Hunchback Meng and slowly disappeared in the opposite direction.
The differences between the tornadoes varied greatly; they depended on the number of small creatures within them. The greater the number, the faster the tornado would travel. As a result, the tornadoes formed a line as they chased Wang Lin. The tornado Wang Lin controlled contained quite a number of small creatures, so its speed wasn’t slow either.
Although the tornado was chasing Wang Lin, he wasn’t afraid. Instead, he calculated the tornado’s speed before turning to look at the nearest tornado. He opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of crystal light. The flying sword quickly moved toward the tornado in Wang Lin’s mind.
His Ji Realm moved inside the flying sword. His target was not the small creature that looked like an army, but the creature that led each tornado.
With the presence of the Ji Realm’s Divine Sense and the sharp blade of the flying sword, in just the blink of an eye, one of the tornadoes Wang Lin was targeting suddenly stopped. All the small creatures within it suddenly scattered with confused expressions on their faces.
Wang Lin didn’t stop at all. His hand quickly pointed, and a ray of light shot through the tornado. Suddenly, most of the large tornado Wang Lin had been watching collapsed.
At this moment, he began to notice the divine sense behind him beginning to converge, so he waved his hand, and the crystal sword returned in an instant. It wasn’t that Wang Lin didn’t want to fight, but the small creatures were now on guard. He had been able to catch them off guard earlier, but if he continued, the flying sword would be blocked by the converged divine sense as it approached the tornado.
He didn’t want to be like Hunchback Meng, who fought until his life’s treasure was split in two.
Wang Lin sneered as the flying sword returned to him. He continued to flee. Soon, the distance between him and the tornado widened. All the tornadoes he targeted were the largest tornadoes that were slightly faster than him.
All of this happened in the blink of an eye. In the blink of an eye, a gap appeared between Wang Lin and the tornado. However, the little creatures had already finished combining their divine senses, and a series of divine sense lightning bolts shot towards Wang Lin.
Wang Lin’s gaze was still calm. When a flash of divine awareness arrived, Wang Lin gave an order to the second demon. The small creatures controlled by the second demon suddenly turned and charged out, creating a sound wave that began to spread.
This sound wave attack created a shock wave that pushed Wang Lin’s tornado forward, causing the divine sense lightning to miss. When the small creatures chasing Wang Lin combined their divine senses for another attack, Wang Lin was already far away from them.
As the huge vortex in the sky became visible to Wang Lin, his eyes began to sparkle. In truth, if he hadn’t decided to steal from Hunchback Meng, he would have safely entered the second trial.
Even now, if he gave up hiding inside the tornado and attacked with all his strength, he had an 80% chance of success, but this was not what Wang Lin had planned.
He didn’t know what dangers lay ahead in the second attempt. It was highly unlikely he would have the same luck as the first, so he couldn’t rush in rashly.
As a result, the extremely cautious Wang Lin fixed his gaze on the tornadoes behind him. Wang Lin’s plan was to bring some of those tornadoes with him to the second trial. This way, he would have some means of defense in the second trial.
With this in mind, he couldn’t just enter the vortex alone. He carefully looked back at the tornado behind him and began to ponder. Then, he gritted his teeth and gave the second demon an order. The tornado slowed down.
As he slowed down, the tornado behind him immediately closed the distance to 500 feet, and a series of attacks also quickly approached Wang Lin.
The tornado that Wang Lindo was riding only needed one pull at full speed to reach the vortex.
In other words, it takes one breath of time for the tornado to catch up and two breaths of time for them to enter the vortex.
As time began to tick by, Wang Lin took out an object from his storage bag. When the divine sense attack arrived, Wang Lin didn’t suddenly speed up to dodge the attack, but instead used the small creatures in his tornado to block it.
In just the blink of an eye, more than half of the small creatures in Wang Lin’s tornado died.
Wang Lin’s expression was calm. There was no sign of panic in his eyes. At this moment, Wang Lin was even closer to the vortex, and the tornado behind him was rapidly approaching.
In a split second, Wang Lin’s body shot out of the tornado like an arrow. A group of tornadoes approached as their sound attacks exploded.
As Wang Lin left his tornado, all the small creatures except the second demon died.
At this moment, Wang Lin’s body was already inside the vortex. The tornado chasing him had also entered the vortex. The tornado suddenly stopped, and several people at the back of the group were about to retreat.
However, how could Wang Lin let them have their way? He looked at the 40 or so tornadoes chasing him and shouted, “Stay here for me!”
As he spoke, he sent spiritual energy into an object he had taken out of the bag he was holding upon his first breath. Suddenly, a ring of light expanded and surrounded the entire tornado.
The dragon’s shadow appeared, and under Wang Lin’s control, it circled around the circle of light. At that moment, purple lightning shot out from the vortex. The purple lightning landed on Wang Lin’s body and penetrated into the circle of light. The vortex quickly pulled them all into it.
In the blink of an eye, Wang Lin and around 40 tornadoes were pulled into the vortex.
At this point, other tornadoes had caught up, but when they touched the vortex, they were bounced back. More tornadoes gathered here, but after trying for a very long time, they still couldn’t enter the vortex. After a while, they slowly began to disperse.
The first trial, the Earth Trial, gradually calmed down. In an unknown location within the Earth Trial, Hunchback Meng floated in the air. His body was covered in blood, and his eyes were filled with confusion. In front of him was the body of a king creature. The golden finger bone on his head slowly emerged.
It pointed to Hunchback Meng’s eyebrows…
As for Wang Lin, after coming out of the vortex, he immediately spread his divine sense and was shocked. The place where he was now was a gray world with only a bridge made of black stone.
Wang Lin withdrew his divine sense and looked back. The dragon formation was still there, with over 40 tornadoes within it. They were still trying to escape, colliding violently with the surrounding ring of light.
Every time they collided, the ring dimmed slightly. Wang Lin let out a cold snort as he removed the dragon formation. As soon as the formation disappeared, more than 40 tornadoes scattered.
At the same time, Wang Lin pointed at his brow. A second demon quickly appeared and let out a defiant roar at the tornado.
All the tornadoes suddenly stopped. A small creature flew out of one of the tornadoes and collided with the second demon. Wang Lin calmly watched all this happen. This was part of his plan. The reason he hadn’t let the second demon challenge them in the first attempt was because too many tornadoes were chasing them for them to stop. Once the second demon started challenging them, they would attract even more tornadoes. If the second demon failed, Wang Lin wouldn’t be able to escape.
But now there are only 40 or so tornadoes, which makes the situation very different.
Three days later, Wang Lin looked into the distance while standing beside a black bridge. Forty-two black tornadoes were clustered together. If one looked closely, they would see that all the tornadoes were surrounding a single tornado in the center, with a red light connecting them.
The leader of all the tornadoes fused with the second demon. However, with force, Wang Lin pulled them all out and placed them in the soul flag to be used to create more demons in the future.
He did this to prevent himself from losing control of the second demon, as the second demon had merged with too many of them.
