Chapter 1452: Completely Changing the Previous Impression Translator: Sparrow Translations Editor: Sparrow Translations
As the Yama Imperial Pavilion shook, s.p.a.ce started to shrink rapidly. Slowly, it became like a prison, trapping the Emperor of the Dead inside.
w.a.n.g Lin, who fell from the throne, disappeared. It was as if he had been absorbed into the Yama Imperial Pavilion.
The Emperor of the Dead turned his head around and he looked through the Yama Imperial Pavilion and toward the outside world. He noticed that the Road to the River Styx, the w.a.n.gchuan River, and the Narakade Bridge, which he had crossed, started to tremble.
A few human figures suddenly appeared. They all resembled w.a.n.g Lin.
A resolute youth walking alone appeared on the Road to the River Styx. Other than the firm look on his face, he was ordinary. His quiet and resolute gaze still looked slightly pure. It contained the determination to overcome his present difficulties and also carried with him hopes for a better future.
An expressionless youth whose eyes were shut tight and silent appeared in the River Styx. He was unmoving like a piece of rock. It was as if he was part of the river and his entire body appeared to be between life and death.
An ordinary-looking young man with a calm expression and a smile on his face appeared on top of the Narakade Bridge. He appeared to be taking in the sights around him.
The Three Life Stone before the Emperor of the Dead suddenly shone and the bright light that surrounded it disappeared. On the Three Life Stone, which was as bright as a mirror, a human figure appeared. It was w.a.n.g Lin too.
However, this was an elderly w.a.n.g Lin. Deep lines lined his faces and his bodies bore the mark of age. Only his eyes were clear and deep.
However, every single w.a.n.g Lin shared a similarity. They all had a satanic pattern on their forehead.
When he saw the pattern, the Emperor of the Dead"s eyes flashed. "The Ancient Satanic Mantra, the Ancient Satanic Heart Curse?"
While he reached his peak before the rise of the Ancient Satanic Sect and he fell during the Antiquity Age, he was not oblivious to everything that had happened in the world around him afterward. He continued to receive updates and his disciples, the Samsara Priest, the River Styx Priest, the Nether Priest and Xu Anda were all active in the Greater World.
Hence, he knew of the things that happened in the Greater World.
However, w.a.n.g Lin"s spell right now appeared rather odd and unfamiliar.
The Emperor of the Dead looked at him and said, "Did you combine these spells with some other forms of existence and transferred it from your body?"
w.a.n.g Lin did not reply. His true form could not be seen. His other forms started to cast their spells.
The Road to the River Styx, the w.a.n.gchuan River, the Narakade Bridge, the Yama Imperial Pavilion and the Three Life Stone all started to shake. Together, they formed his Nine Nether River Styx World, which resembled h.e.l.l itself.
The naked eye could see the black aura that surrounded the Emperor of the Dead and exerted a pressure on him.
At first, the Emperor of the Dead was surprised. Then, he regained his calm and treated it as if nothing had happened as he said, "Don"t waste my energy, all I need to do is to destroy you a few more times."
As he said that, his black eyes changed suddenly. Rays of white light spewed out from them.
The white light all carried with them a strong vital energy. It was as if they could give birth to everything. Where the white light touched, it merged with the black aura.
The two sides did not clash violently. Instead, they fused together and the black and white gases started to spin non-stop. At last, thousands of tiny spinning wheels could be seen in the air.
The wheels filled the sky and they ill.u.s.trated the principles of life and death. As the wheels spun, one could see the true principle of the samsara.
The Emperor of the Dead reached out with his hand and tapped lightly. Thousands of black-and-white wheels started to fly in all directions. They bombarded w.a.n.g Lin"s Nine Nether River Styx World.
At this moment, w.a.n.g Lin"s bodies had all disappeared. His real body appeared before the Emperor of the Dead and suddenly, he took a step forward and appeared right before him. With one finger, he pointed at the Emperor of the Dead"s chest.
w.a.n.g Lin had already revealed his Virtual Ent.i.ty. A Taiji Diagram above his head started to spin slowly. The Three Life Stone, the Yama Imperial Pavilion and everything else that once formed his Virtual Ent.i.ty disappeared. This made him look ordinary. He was only a normal looking person clad in billowing black robes standing in mid-air.
Suddenly, he pointed at the Emperor of the Dead"s chest. The Nine Nether River Styx World fell silent. All that moved was his finger.
The Emperor of the Dead knew that w.a.n.g Lin was a pure spell cultivator. However, his finger was evidently a martial move.
At this point, from the heart of w.a.n.g Lin"s Virtual Ent.i.ty, one could feel a powerful energy bursting forth. It was as if the universe was on the brink of destruction.
From a small point, it started to expand ma.s.sively and soon enveloped the entire heaven and earth.
Under the influence of this energy, w.a.n.g Lin"s finger became extremely terrifying.
Between the heaven and earth, unholy beings cackled and danced and a chasm opened.
When one looked down at the chasm, it was like looking up into a very high tower. Everything was concentrated at the bottom of the canyon. On top of the tower, the demons that appeared all seemed to submit to the authority at the bottom of the canyon.
w.a.n.g Lin"s finger, the tip of the tower and the depth of the canyon had formed into a singular ent.i.ty. It was so heavy that one could not add anything to it. The power of the entire demonic canyon was aimed straight for the Emperor of the Dead"s chest.
This was the most powerful attack martial attack of the Ancient Satanic Sect, the Submission of Ten Thousand Demons!
As it was unexpected, the sudden attack completely changed the Emperor of the Dead"s impression of w.a.n.g Lin. Even with his cultivation, he could not escape as w.a.n.g Lin was in front of him within seconds.
This time, he sought to escape by teleporting away but he was already suppressed by the Submission of Ten Thousand Demons. His entire body fell helplessly into the deep canyon and toward the tip of the tower.
However, the Emperor of the Dead was not someone to be trifled with. He stood at his original position unmoving and a black and white Dao Fruits appeared before his chest, blocking w.a.n.g Lin"s attack.
Still, the Dao Fruit exploded and filled the entire sky with black light.
The Netherworld Immemorial Grand Cataclysmic Curse!
When w.a.n.g Lin saw that, a dazzling light shone from his eyes. In his right eye, black and white light intersected and turned into a black-and-white cross. Then, it descended onto the Emperor of the Dead from the sky.
"Center!" As w.a.n.g Lin bellowed, the Heaven-Defying Life Changing Curse was activated. It inverted the turn of the Karmic Theory and changed the events of the past.
Under the s.h.i.+ne of the black-and-white light, the powerful attack that had been blocked by the Netherworld Immemorial Grand Cataclysmic Curse continued its way to the Emperor of the Dead"s chest!
The Emperor of the Dead"s eyes shone and he sighed, "Before me, all shall be silent."
The Netherworld Sacrificial Rites were activated and a three-layered black altar speared. Then, the Life and Death Netherworld Dao Fruit was put up as a sacrifice. The altar was destroyed and turned into a black light, blocking everything before the Emperor of the Dead
Because the Netherworld Immemorial Grand Cataclysmic Curse did not actually play its supposed role, w.a.n.g Lin"s finger was almost at the Emperor of the Dead"s chest when he used his second attack. The suppressive force from his finger numbed his heart.
The moment the black light was activated, eternity separated the two of them. This extremely dangerous move blocked w.a.n.g Lin"s Submission of Ten Thousand Demons.
w.a.n.g Lin"s eyes flashed and he started to use the Heaven-Defying Life Changing Curse again.
Everything was deathly quiet and the silent black layer of light appeared to have separated the dimensions. Now, there appeared to be no danger before the Emperor of the Dead. Nor was there any difficulty.
Other than cutting off his spiritual energy, he was able to cut off his actual, physical body, the many profound principles as well as his karmic links.
Death was the end of everything. Here, everything was in an eternal slumber.
w.a.n.g Lin"s Heaven-Defying Life Changing Curse was extremely fearsome. It caused the black layer of light to ripple like water. While no sound could be heard, its defensive power was dropping rapidly.
The Submission of Ten Thousand Demons continued to exert strength as it tried to break through the black light.
However, with this chance, the Emperor of the Dead was able to catch a breather. He set up another Netherworld Spiritual Altar and sacrificed another Dao Fruit. Then, he took a step forward.
Behind him, there was a completely gray path. Every step he took, everything lost its life and died.
"Behind me, nothing shall live," intoned the Emperor of the Dead as he rapidly moved away from w.a.n.g Lin.
Even w.a.n.g Lin had to think twice before he pursued the Emperor of the Dead"s path of death. It was even more difficult for him to use a Martial Way attack here.
However, in w.a.n.g Lin"s eyes, the black-and-white cross intersected once more and the Heaven-Defying Life Changing Curse came into effect. "Stop!"
With that one word, the Emperor of the Dead"s movement slowed.
While he was still attempting to move ahead, he became much slower. It was almost comical but no one dared to laugh.
Even though he had been injured by Lin Feng, the Emperor of the Dead"s powers could not be underestimated as he tried to resist w.a.n.g Lin"s attack.
Above his head, black and white light intersected to form a huge wheel. It completely covered the sky above.
The black-and-white wheel spun as if it was undoing Fate.
As the wheel spun, it slowed too. w.a.n.g Lin"s powerful Heaven-Defying Life Changing Curse changed the fate of every single thing.
The Emperor of the Dead, who specialized in samsara, understood the principles of Fate and Destiny very well.
When he noticed what was going on, w.a.n.g Lin pulled one of his fingers back. The vast power that could be felt almost everywhere retreated back into w.a.n.g Lin"s heart. Once again, it looked like an insignificant little point.
On his forehead, in the center of the Taiji Diagram, a satanic pattern appeared.
The satanic pattern appeared above the Taiji Diagram. It did not spin but remained still.
The Taiji Diagram continued to spin and remained unaffected.
On top of w.a.n.g Lin"s head, a blurry light shadow could be seen. It resembled the Three Life Stone, which caught the Emperor of the Dead"s attention.
At this moment, one could see a human figure appearing from the light.
When he saw the figure, the Emperor of the Dead frowned. The figure was both distant and familiar to him.
As his mana trembled non-stop in the sky, the figure drew closer and closer. Finally, he stepped out from the ball of light and entered this world.
