Wang Lin’s eyes flashed, as he stared at the black stone bridge for a long while. These three days, he had been observing the stone bridge, and up until now, he hadn’t even stepped on it .
This dusky world, aside from the stone bridge, it was completely desolate and empty.
Wang Lin was silent for a while, before waving his right hand backwards. Immediately the forty two hurricanes suddenly scattered, and all of them stopped rotating, and turned into approximately ten thousand small beasts, spectacularly spreading around into all directions.
Wang Lin closed his eyes, and began perceiving the small beasts through the Second Devil. The large number of small beasts that had just dispersed, flew out in every directions. Slowly he just listened to the bursts of sharp roars that had reached a far distance, and were now barely audible.
After a long period of time, he suddenly opened both his eyes, and leapt out towards the northwest direction. Along with him flew the numerous small beasts which had drawn close to him from all directions, they gathered behind him and formed into a hurricane.
Not long after, Wang Lin stopped, as he came down, in front of him appeared a three hundred feet high stone tablet. The stone tablet was slightly red in colour and was emitting traces of monstrously evil Qi. A few small beasts, had laid down prone on the stone tablet, while flapping their wings, emitting a buzzing sound.
After Wang Lin came to see, these small beasts immediately flew towards him and integrated into the hurricane. Wang Lin looking at the stone tablet, could see written on top of it, four big words—— Road of No Returns.
[TLNote: Actually Chinese required only three characters 不归路: Which usually means that it’s a path towards death, no regrets or impossible to return]
These four words, also overflowed with a kind of an aftertaste of a veteran’s aura. Wang Lin stared at the words for a bit, when suddenly his vision moved towards the bottom right of the stone tablet and after closely looking at it with rapt attention, he waved his right hand. Suddenly, a strong wind swept, and bursts of dust flew upwards, and on the bottom right corner of the stone tablet, a row of small characters appeared.
“I passed through the Earth Domain, subdued the Beast Overlord, and entered this Road of No Returns, this place is much more interesting, so leaving a message for predestined friends who come here, remember to carefully ponder the two engraved words of No Returns.”
Wang Lin looked calm outwards, but actually he had been quite startled. These small words were similar to the words that he had seen when he had entered that black tower in the beginning of Earth Domain. Obviously, they had been written by the same person.
Thinking of the meaning hidden between the words and lines while looking at it, from the Earth Domain it can be seen that this person was extremely simple and straightforward, even that formidable heavenly hurricane Beast Overlord, was subdued by him.
But then, Wang Lin began to have second thoughts as he narrowed his pupils. If what this person said was true, then how could the Beast Overlord return to the Earth doman. The words of this person were also mostly false, after all meaning of the words to subdue 收服 is really self-evident, while taking only one word 收, indicates a meaning that is somewhat close.
[TLNote: This really needs to be explained better, but I *think* what the author is trying to say is the difference in wordplay, as most Chinese words are made by two letters, example: Washing Machine ( Washing + Machine)]
Certainly it was possible, that this person really did subdue the Beast Overlord, but over the innumerable years, the Earth Domain gave birth to a new one.
Whichever was true or false, Wang Lin didn’t have the interest to thoroughly distinguish, as his eyes once again fell onto the four words “Road of No Returns” once more, while he remained silent.
After a long time, he flew towards the black stone bridge, while the hurricanes closely followed behind him.
Returning to the stone bridge, Wang Lin patted his storage bag, and the Devil Xu Li Guo drilled out immediately. It enviously stared at the hurricanes, while muttering to himself: “Isn’t it just some other little brats, what’s so great about them? I, will never allow some tiny brats following me later!”
Wang Lin pointed towards the stone bridge, the Devil Xu Li Guo immediately suppressed his thoughts. This time he was not as lippy like in the past, instead he was lively and full of energy, as he was feeling proud of himself, he looked at the hurricane with slanting eyes, and thought in his heart: “Can’t you see, this evil Master still prefers me, otherwise, why else would he not let the Second to come and take care of this thing!”
He looked at Wang Lin, while his face reflected an expression of currying favour, and without saying anything further, he flew towards the stone bridge. After flying out very far, he did not encounter any danger, and after turning a few circles, flew back.
Wang Lin frowned slightly, while he stretched out his right hand and immediately from inside the hurricane, a small beast flew out. This small beast lay prone in the center of Wang Lin’s palm, while motionlessly staring tightly at Wang Lin.
Wang Lin flicked his right hand, the small beast immediately flew towards the direction of the black stone bridge, he had barely flown out three paces, when the small beast stopped. Wang Lin’s look became solemn as he stared steadily at the small beast.
The small beast’s entire body could be seen trembling, while it slowly turned around, it’s eyes revealed a fearful expression, while on the stone bridge below it, immediately a vortex emerged, and all of a sudden this small beast was swallowed down, before returning to normal.
Wang Lin remained silent for a bit, by now he had already realized, that passing through this “Road of No Returns” is the only way in this place, after muttering to himself for a bit, he once again pushed forward a few small beasts to fly towards the stone bridge, but the end result was the same.
The only thing Wang Lin could notice, was that if several small beasts fly together, then the abnormal change would occur for only the first one, and as for the rest of the small beasts the accident would happen in turns, and so on.
Wang Lin’s eyes flashed, as he thought from the bottom of his heart: “No returns……No returns……the idea is that as long as one has taken a step forward, then cannot return back…..”. He remained silent for a bit, and didn’t take any action rashly.
Instead he sat down cross-legged outside the stone bridge, and pulling out two storage bags from his bosom, amongst which one had a black gold thread. This he had stolen from that mysterious corpse inside the War Shrine Shen Dao technique portrayal mansion.
Unfortunately, this storage bag possessed the strength to prevent Wang Lin’s Divine Consciousness from exploring inside, so he couldn’t open it. Wang Lin knew that the opposite party has its Divine Consciousness inside it, and only after erasing it would it be possible to open it.
However, this Divine Consciousness was very strong, as Wang Lin tried feeling it out several times before giving up. However, he wrapped his own Divine Consciousness above it, preventing this Divine Consciousness to come in contact with the outside world, thus this Divine Consciousness’ owner would not be able to get any reaction from it.
Although Wang Lin found it very difficult to erase the Divine Consciousness, but as far as concealing it under his control was concerned, with his Ji Realm Divine Consciousness, he was able to succeed in it.
The other storage bag, was precisely the one that he had taken from Hunchback Meng’s possession. The Divine Consciousness on it had already thoroughly disappeared, from this it could be seen that Hunchback Meng had certainly died.
Wang Lin sneered inwardly, as he opened it to see, his eyes couldn’t help but brighten. It was worthy of a cultivator at Spirit Forming stage who had been accumulating for several millenniums, kept inside the storage bag, counting just the LingShi there are no less than three hundred thousand which were piled up like a mountain. Moreover, these LingShi were all of High Grade.
What made Wang Lin’s eyes shine brightly, was that stored quietly within it were two shining diamond shaped crystal stones. These were actually the rarest of them all, the Highest Quality LingShi.
Wang Lin was palpitating with eagerness, just these two best quality LingShi were worth having taken all this risk to plunder.
Apart from these, there were several bottles and jars, as for magic weapons, there was only the two fragments of the small green cauldron, and aside from that, there was no other magic weapon.
Wang Lin pondered a bit, the immediately understood, that Hunchback Meng had been surrounded for a long time, and certainly would have run out of magic weapons a long time ago.
In fact, he had guessed correctly. Originally the number of magic weapons that Hunchback Meng possessed were not few, and all of them were Yuan Ying level or higher. However, due to continuously rushing out of black pagodas repeatedly, it had caused him to lose his magic weapons in great quantities to the point of exhaustion. In fact he didn’t even hesitate to use more than ten spirit beast substitutes to try and break out of the encirclement, while throwing out a lot of magic weapons, even his cherished magic weapon had exploded which enabled him to try and cut a desperate bloody path through, but eventually he still failed.
It is exactly because of this, that aside from the green cauldron, he had no other magic weapons inside his storage bag.
In addition to these, his storage bag also had quite a lot of Jade Talismans inside. Wang Lin took them out one by one and pressed them to his forehead to examine. The more he sa
