A beam of light extended from the ball of light, quickly enveloping Lin Yi. In the next instant, Lin Yi's figure mysteriously disappeared before the shocked and angry eyes of Chen Mu and the others.
"Buzz!"
As Lin Yi's figure disappeared, the pillar of light also shrank rapidly. Upon seeing this, Chen Mu and the others' expressions changed drastically, and their speed suddenly increased to the extreme, as they tried to rush into the pillar of light.
However, the beam of light shrank too quickly, and with everyone's speed, it was too late.
"call out!"
Under those unpleasant gazes, the beam of light hissed and disappeared.
However, at that very moment, a ghostly figure suddenly darted out from mid-air, rushed into the pillar of light, and disappeared without a trace.
After the mysterious figure rushed into the pillar of light, the pillar of light finally dissipated completely. Chen Mu and the others who had rushed over stared blankly at the empty hall, their faces contorted with rage.
"I'll wait right here. I refuse to believe you won't show up again!"
Chen Mu's eyes were bloodshot, like a gambler who had lost a bet. His face was ferocious, and his voice, filled with murderous intent, sent chills down one's spine.
……
In the instant his body disappeared, Lin Yi could feel a dizziness spreading from the depths of his mind, but that feeling quickly disappeared.
A vast plaza came into Lin Yi's view.
In the center of the square sat a figure, but he appeared lifeless.
Lin Yi moved swiftly and appeared before the remains, discovering that they were identical to the stone statues in the main hall.
Between the remains' hands lay an ancient yellow key. This key, seemingly made of wood but not quite, was covered with strange patterns, and faintly emitted a chilling aura.
Lin Yi knew that this was his goal in coming to Thunder Rock Valley: the ancient key!
Without the slightest hesitation, Lin Yi grabbed the ancient key.
"call out!"
Just then, a sharp gust of wind suddenly appeared from behind him.
Lin Yi was prepared for this. With a thought, the Blood Spirit Puppet reappeared and stood behind him, while he still held the ancient key in his hand.
"clang!"
At the same time, a crisp sound rang out, and an astonishing gust of wind swept out, even causing Lin Yi to stagger back several steps.
Lin Yi turned around and saw a woman in a red dress in mid-air in front of him.
The woman had a slender and graceful figure, with black hair as dark as ink, and a face as alluring as a peach blossom, exuding a stunning charm.
"Hehe, little brother, your older sister has also taken a liking to this ancient key. How about you give it to your older sister?"
The woman in red smiled at Lin Yi, her voice sweet and melodious.
"Not good," Lin Yi smiled faintly, and Yuan Power flowed into the ancient key between his palms. At that moment, he felt that he had an absolute control over this space.
"Little brother, you wouldn't be so heartless, would you?"
The woman seemed to sense something, immediately clenching her teeth and clenching her hands, then smiled charmingly and said seductively, "Little brother, you wouldn't be so heartless, would you?"
"Goodbye," Lin Yi smiled faintly, raising the ancient key in his hand. Instantly, the surrounding space rippled, and a beam of light shot down from nowhere, enveloping the woman in red.
Under the protective light, the woman in red's cheeks flushed and paled alternately, but she quickly returned to giving Lin Yi a charming smile.
"Your name is Lin Yi, right? Fine, I admit defeat this time. However, I'll be waiting for you in the Ancient Secret Treasure. If you're still this weak then, don't blame me for being ruthless..."
"I remember your sister's name, Mu Hongling. And I also remember, next time, you probably won't be so lucky!"
Lin Yi shook his head slightly, put the ancient key into his Qiankun Ring, then sat down cross-legged and took out the Heavenly Talisman Tree.
He planned to refine the Heavenly Spirit Tree here, which would likely allow his spiritual power to advance to another level...
Chapter 168 Possession? Double Tribulation of Wind and Thunder! [Please Read On]
With the Devouring Ancestral Symbol present, refining the Heavenly Symbol Spirit Tree wouldn't be difficult for Lin Yi.
Nearly a month later, Lin Yi successfully refined and absorbed the energy of the Heavenly Talisman Spirit Tree, and his spiritual power was greatly enhanced. However, he was still a little far from becoming a second-level Heavenly Talisman Master.
After losing its energy, the tree-patterned runes on the Heavenly Talisman Tree vanished completely with a "bang".
Just as Lin Yi was about to finish his cultivation, the remains not far away suddenly exploded, and a strange gray light shot out at an astonishing speed, finally rushing directly into Lin Yi's mind, causing his body to stiffen slightly.
"Seize the body!"
The little sable standing to the side was also stunned by this scene, and then its eyes suddenly flashed with a chilling, man-eating aura.
"Roar!"
Little Flame, standing to the side, seemed to have sensed something as well. Immediately, its fiery red scales began to shimmer with a red light, and it began to roar at Lin Yi in a low voice.
Meanwhile, within Lin Yi's Niwan Palace, chaos reigned. A streak of gray light surged directly into his Niwan Palace, transforming into an extremely terrifying storm. The violent tearing force seemed intent on ripping Lin Yi's spiritual power apart completely.
"Give me your body, and I will give you boundless power!"
The dark gray storm tried to erode the defenses formed by Lin Yi's Devouring Ancestral Symbol, but failed to break through. Suddenly, an extremely faint and chilling sound came from within the storm.
"Where did this old bastard come from? Get out of here!" Lin Yi roared, urging his spiritual power within his Niwan Palace to try and repel the gray storm.
"Boy, it's your good fortune that I've taken a liking to your body. If you remain stubborn, I will shatter your spirit and make you vanish into thin air!" A cold, sinister voice could be faintly heard amidst the storm.
"Scatter! Who do you think you are? You're dead, so be it! Yet you dare to cause trouble in front of Lord Mink? Do you really think I can't deal with you?!"
Just then, a monstrous wave suddenly surged within the Niwan Palace, and a sharp shout spread outwards.
Immediately, an extremely large claw tore through the air and fiercely grabbed the storm. The immense force directly pushed the storm back.
"The Heavenly Demon Sable?"
Amidst the storm, a somewhat shocked voice suddenly rang out, clearly recognizing the enormous creature.
"You blind fool, a mere remnant of a spiritual imprint dares to cause trouble. But since you've shown up, you're not leaving!"
The enormous creature in the chaos uttered a sharp and ferocious sound, and then its huge wings flapped, instantly unleashing two tornadoes that struck the storm with lightning speed.
"Bang bang!"
The storm was directly defeated by the two tornadoes and finally exploded completely. Then, a faint gray shadow appeared under Lin Yi's mental gaze.
This gray figure was almost transparent, but one could still vaguely make out its features, which were exactly the same as the remains.
"Heavenly Demon Sable, I only want this brat's body. You are merely a demon spirit. If I can be resurrected, I will surely allow you to be reborn as well! Why are you protecting an unknown brat?"
The gray figure stared at the colossal creature in the chaos with extreme apprehension and shouted.
"Master Mink has been following this kid for so long and has never even entertained such a thought. How dare you, an outsider, pull this stunt in front of Master Mink? Die!"
Hearing the little sable's sharp cry, Lin Yi couldn't help but laugh and cry at the same time.
Next, with the help of Little Mink, the mental imprint was quickly blasted away.
Wow!
As the gray shadow was blasted apart, an extremely powerful and vigorous spiritual force erupted within Lin Yi's Niwan Palace.
"Lin Yi, absorb this spiritual energy to raise your spiritual power level!"
At this moment, Xiao Diao's shout also rang in Lin Yi's ears.
Upon hearing this, Lin Yi did not hesitate at all. With a thought, the Devouring Ancestral Symbol suddenly swept out, transforming into a huge black hole that devoured all the spiritual power that had lost its spiritual imprint.
As this spiritual energy was absorbed, Lin Yi's spiritual energy within his Niwan Palace grew increasingly abundant, and he soon reached the level of a Second Seal Heavenly Talisman Master.
However, Lin Yi has not yet undergone the tribulation. He needs to pass the tribulation of wind and thunder before he can be considered to have truly completed his breakthrough.
After a long while, Lin Yi slowly opened his eyes. After absorbing the remaining spiritual entity, he gained some memories from it.
Among these memories were some unique mental techniques, which was a valuable gain for Lin Yi.
"Let's go, it's time to leave," Lin Yi said to Xiao Diao and Xiao Yan after sorting through his memories.
Little Mink and Little Flame naturally had no objections to this.
Immediately, Lin Yi took out the Ancient Key again. With a thought, the Ancient Key in his hand emitted a strong light, which then enveloped Lin Yi and Xiao Yan's bodies. Their bodies gradually faded until they finally disappeared completely into the key space.
With Lin Yi's disappearance, this key space once again became silent and lifeless.
……
The instant the darkness before Lin Yi receded like a tide, his powerful spiritual energy surged forth, forming an extremely strong defense around him.
However, Lin Yi soon discovered that their location was not the stone hall they had been in before, but a solitary mountain peak.
This mountain peak is not far from Thunder Rock Valley. Standing here, Lin Yi can see Thunder Rock Valley, which is split open in the mountains.
"Tsk tsk, this key is quite a treasure," Little Marten said with some surprise, looking at the ancient key in Lin Yi's hand. "It seems that once this thing is activated, it will hide in the void and then begin to move."
"In the future, if you encounter a crisis, you can hide in that key space."
"I hope we won't encounter that situation," Lin Yi smiled slightly, then said, "It seems that the people from Thunder Rock Valley have all left. Next, I will find a place to undergo my tribulation before searching for that ancient treasure."
Lin Yi's spiritual power cultivation had long since reached the standard of a First-Seal Heavenly Talisman Master. However, due to some previous delays, he had been suppressing his tribulation.
Now, as he is about to become a second-level Heavenly Talisman Master, Lin Yi feels that he can no longer suppress the sensation of undergoing tribulation.
Lin Yi released his spiritual power and quickly found a secluded valley.
"Little Mink, Little Flame, you two wait for me outside the valley first," Lin Yi told Little Mink and Little Flame to leave. Then he found a huge rock in the valley, sat cross-legged, and stopped suppressing his mental energy fluctuations.
"Boom!"
In the next instant, dark clouds suddenly gathered in the sky above the valley, and faintly, silver snakes and strong winds arose.
Gazing at the forming dark clouds and lightning, the little sable's pupils suddenly contracted, and it hurriedly retreated a few distances.
The little mink, still in its demonic spirit form, is extremely wary of the power of thunder.
Even Xiao Yan couldn't help but take a step back, looking at the lightning serpent in the sky with a hint of fear in his eyes.
"Boom!"
Soon, the thunderclouds in the sky took shape, and thunder rumbled. Suddenly, a strange suction force burst forth.
Under this burst of suction, Little Marten and Little Flame saw a beam of light suddenly erupt from Lin Yi's Niwan Palace, and then a phantom figure rose up and finally hovered above his head.
This illusory figure was naturally Lin Yi's spiritual body.
"Hey!"
