Chapter 2143: Lifting of the Heavenly Dao’s Barrier
“From today onward, you’re all members of the Four Nine Immortal Sect’s Dark Wing Pavilion,” An Lin said calmly.
“Understood! ” the several million powerful beings of the Dark Wing Tribe shouted in unison. There wasn’t a shred of hesitation in their voices.
There was deep astonishment in everyone’s mind as they gazed at the kneeling members of the Dark Wing Tribe.
Sun Wukong scratched his head while saying, “How many first-rate forces have pledged themselves to Brother An Lin now?”
Yun Mengying extended her dark and slender fingers, counting as she said, “The Blood Tribe, the snow maidens, the Vermilion Bird Tribe, the powerful beings of the Divine Source Continent, and now the Dark Wing Tribe…”
“The rise of the Four Nine Immortal Sect’s combat capability is truly hard to fathom. It’s only been a few years, yet it’s already risen explosively to such a state…” Michael said in emotion.
“The most intriguing thing is that the Four Nine Immortal Sect didn’t actively recruit these forces. Instead, it was these forces that had actively pledged themselves to the Four Nine Immortal Sect,” Holy Angel Gabriel said with an emotional sigh.
The force that she had spent so much effort raising for the past tens of thousands of years was still weaker than the force that was actively pledging itself to An Lin now. This was their difference in power…
“Rise, everyone. We’re all family in the future, so there’s no need for such gestures,” An Lin said with a beaming smile.
The members of the Dark Wing Tribe become even more touched upon hearing An Lin refer to them as “family”. In fact, they were so touched that they were almost about to shed tears of joy.
Did everyone hear? The Heavenly Darkness G.o.d had acknowledged them! Not only that, but he was even going to treat them like family! Who would still dare to belittle them in the future?!
Just like that, the Dark Wing Tribe joined the forces of Yue Tong City.
The strength of the central front of the Heaven Crus.h.i.+ng United Army rose explosively once more.
Everyone was grinding their weapons as they awaited the next earth-shattering battle.
Inside a tranquil and elegant manor.
An Lin held the black orb in one hand and the Evil-Slaying Sword in the other as he carefully examined their hidden secrets.
The Heavenly Darkness G.o.d had started to plan for the future from the moment that the Purple Star Civilization was destroyed. Now, it was finally time for him to reveal his trump cards. His reincarnation, An Lin, had inherited the Evil-Slaying Sword and black orb that he had pa.s.sed down, and this was proof of his plan being borne into fruition.
Moreover, it was no wonder that the Dark Wing Tribe had placed so much importance in the Evil-Slaying Sword, even fighting with their lives in an attempt to obtain it. As it turned out, they had wanted to help the Heavenly Darkness G.o.d look after this sword… He had already obtained the Evil-Slaying Sword due to the strings of karma, yet the Dark Wing Tribe had still wanted to s.n.a.t.c.h it back from him and help him look after it…
Many secrets had already been revealed, yet An Lin was still unsure of what he should do next. He had initiated this plan, yet he was unsure of how to follow through with it. Was this not strange?
In any case, the biggest mystery was still yet to be unraveled. This was the secret of his system.
What on earth is the system?
What relations.h.i.+p does it have with my Heavenly G.o.d Power?
Does Daolord Lu Ya have any relations.h.i.+p with the Heavenly Darkness G.o.d?
After learning of those secrets, even more questions formed in An Lin’s mind. He had no choice but to spend his time pondering over them.
Little Xie sat quietly beside An Lin. She was holding her head with a single hand, and there was a dazed look in her dead fish eyes as she appeared to be lost in thought.
However, after a long while, Little Xie suddenly said, “An Lin, my… my tummy suddenly feels a little uncomfortable.”
…
Within the cabin of life.
In Chen Xi City, the White Spirit Snake who had been unconscious just then slowly regained her consciousness.
What appeared in her vision was Nuwa’s concerned and caring face.
“Little Bai, you suddenly pa.s.sed out just then. What on earth happened? Also, why have you suddenly advanced to the Dao Integration Pinnacle Stage? In fact, you’re even nearing the barrier to the G.o.d of Creation Stage…”
Nuwa’s voice was especially gentle and pleasant. It was like a gentle breeze that was flowing across limpid springs and mountain streams.
Tears involuntarily formed in the White Spirit Snake’s eyes as she clasped her painfully aching head. “I remember now, I remember everything now,” she said in a soft voice.
“So that’s how it is… No wonder I like Senior An Lin so much. No wonder I rely on Senior An Lin so much. In fact, I would even do whatever he requests of me…”
Nuwa couldn’t help but feel anxious upon hearing that the pure and innocent Little Bai had unraveled her greatest mystery.
“Why? What did An Lin do to you?” she asked nervously.
At the Four Nine Immortal Sect.
Bai Ling, who was sprawled on a table full of drawings and blueprints, opened her blurry and misty eyes.
“Ow, ow, ow…”
She rubbed her aching head, and her eyes instantly regained clarity.
Countless images surged into her mind, stimulating her brain.
“I… I remember now…”
Bai Ling recalled her time in the ruins of the Purple Star Civilization. During that endless and boring time, an extremely handsome man who had profound black eyes and jet-black hair had suddenly appeared before her. Without speaking a word, he had suddenly run a pitch-black sword through her heart.
She had initially thought that she would die just like that.
However, the man’s hands had suddenly started to tremble.
There was a conflict in the man’s mind, and his expression had become twisted and pained.
In the end, the man turned around and left.
Bai Ling managed to survive, yet she lost a portion of her memories as a result.
“Was that the past An Lin?
“What kind of expression was that…?
“No wonder I chose to leave the ruins with An Lin. So it was actually him…”
Bai Ling sighed softly before saying, “In order to protect us, the Heavenly Dao erected a barrier around our memories. Is the barrier finally lifting now? What’s going to happen next? Time is far too important to me… I’m truly afraid of what might happen if there’s not enough time…”
…
Yue Tong City.
An Lin wore an anxious expression as he gazed at Little Xie, who was wearing a black dress.
“Little Xie, where is your tummy feeling uncomfortable? Hurry up and tell me. Don’t scare me like this.”
“How would I know where my tummy is uncomfortable? Anyhow, it’s just feeling uncomfortable!”
Little Xie pursed her lips, and her face was bright red.
As if understanding something, An Lin immediately shot a burst of Divine Weapon Origin Energy into Little Xie’s body.
Little Xie’s face was bright red as she softly humphed in satisfaction. Only then did she settle down.
“Is it better now?” An Lin asked.
Little Xie squirmed but didn’t answer his question. By the looks of it, she was probably feeling very comfortable now.
“An Lin… There’s something that I still need to report to you,” Little Xie suddenly said.
“What?” An Lin asked.
“I’ve become stronger…” Little Xie said quietly. “When you advanced to the Dao Integration Stage, I also advanced to become a weapon at the pinnacle of the divine rank…”
An Lin nodded and said, “I know, you’re incredibly powerful now. In order to help me escape at that time, you even unleashed all of your power at once. You used your own power to wound Xian Yu.”
“M-hm… That’s not what I actually wanted to tell you,” Little Xie pursed her lips and said.
“Then what did you want to tell me?”
“What I wanted to tell you was that my advance this time is related to your Divine Dao of Darkness. When you successfully reached the Dao Integration Stage, a current of Heavenly Darkness Power flowed into my body. It was this that allowed me to grow stronger…
“I feel like there’s a deep and close relations.h.i.+p between us.”
An Lin found her wordings to be quite strange. However, he still replied, “You’re a divine weapon of the darkness element, and this is extremely well-matched with my power. Thus, it’s natural that there’s a relations.h.i.+p between us.”
Little Xie shook her head before saying, “This isn’t a relations.h.i.+p between elements. Rather, it’s a relations.h.i.+p between Dao! I can’t explain this clearly right now, but I still want you to know. Right now, I’ve already reached a state equivalent to my peak state back during the times of the Purple Star Civilization. In fact, I might have even surpa.s.sed that state…
“After all, I’ve developed a spirit, and I also have your power as support. In other words, as long as you provide me with enough power, perhaps I’ll genuinely be able to crush the heavens!”
