Wang Lin and Ning Wan’ge broke through the void and flew ahead. Ning Wan’ge said slowly, “After I understand everything, I don’t need to return to the Black and Red World. As long as I ingest the essence of the Heavenly Charms Grand Sage, or if she ingests my essence, we will then regain all our memories from 4000 years ago. However, that will be my 3rd rebirth and the formation of a fourth ‘me’.”
“All these years, because I spent most of the time in the Ying Sea, the two of us have never met.”
She shook her head and said, “Then, when I sensed her power in the Ying Sea, my soul was still unstable. Hence, because of that, some of the demons may have reported this observation back to the Heavenly Charms Grand Sage. She may not know the reason, but I bet she made some guesses on her own.”
“If not for the protection of your master, the Heavenly Charms Grand Sage may have already captured me.”
Wang Lin said in a low voice, “Just now you said, the Heavenly Charms Grand Sage is the same as you. This means that she has regained her memories as Mo Yunzi?”
Ning Wan’ge nodded her head and replied, “At that moment, I sensed it, I am sure.”
Wang Lin’s expression did not change. His gaze flashed and he said, “The incident in the Spirit Sea is important. Regardless whether the Heavenly Charms Grand Sage has some idea of her own, or if she has some other view of the Spirit Sea incident, or if the loyalty of Mo Yunzi has been transplanted back to her, and she decides to swear loyalty to the Hades Tribe and finish what the Hades Emperor had planned, she will treat this matter very seriously.”
“Looking at it now, the destination we are going to right now is where the Heavenly Charms Grand Sage is going too.”
According to Wang Lin’s prediction, the first possibility is very likely. After all, the Heavenly Charms Grand Sage had been a leader for almost 4000 years. Her ambition was vast, and she would find all sorts of ways to increase her own powers.
Compared to the Hades Tribe, she was weaker, but she had not yet lost hope.
Ambition is something that could not be removed once one tasted it. Those who were used to being a leader would not be willing to submit to others unless there was a drastic change in their circumstances.
Even for the calm and amicable Ning Wan’ge, who had no plan of being involved with the world, she always thought that she was she, Mo Yunzi was Mo Yunzi. What more about the Heavenly Charms Grand Sage?
Unless her powers completely fell apart, and she no longer wished to make a comeback, it was not likely that she would join the Hades Tribe.
Conversely, if the Hades Tribe knew about her background, then the two of them would be at loggerheads.
In some aspects, they would have limited, temporary cooperation. However, among the many powerful demons of the Barren Expanses, the only group that the Heavenly Charms Grand Sage could not defeat was the Hades Tribe.
Wang Lin suddenly remembered that when the War of the Two Worlds ended, his master Lin Feng once said, “The return of the Hades Tribe to the Greater World is something that will cause problems for someone, who will spend a great deal of effort in dealing with it.”
Then, the disciples did not understand the meaning behind his words. Thinking about it now, Wang Lin had some idea of his own. Obviously, Lin Feng was referring to the Heavenly Charms Grand Sage.
Wang Lin looked at Ning Wan’ge and said, “What is the power of the Heavenly Charms Grand Sage, otherwise known as Mo Yunzi? What is the extent of her powers?”
Ning Wan’ge said, “The source of Mo Yunzi’s powers, otherwise known as the Heavenly Charms Grand Sage, came from my master. Other than the first chapter of the Demonic Book of the Heavenly Tao, she had probably cultivated every other part of it.”
“When I ascended into the Undying Demon Soul Third Level, my Original True Spirit Pattern formed my demonic body and my demon soul and became a demon similar to my master. However, the basis of that was clouds.”
Here, Ning Wan’ge paused slightly and continued, “While I do not understand the depth of my master’s powers, I can sense that my master is not a pure demon like me, but instead, a half-demon like me too.”
When Wang Lin heard that, his eyes narrowed and he said nothing. Ning Wan’ge continued, “Specifically, in terms of her powers, Mo Yunzi, otherwise known as the Heavenly Charms Grand Sage, is similar to my master in three main ways.”
“First, she is very good at concealing herself, and her mastery in that aspect is superior to many other people. It is very difficult to see the true depth of the Heavenly Charms Grand Sage’s powers. One must attain a certain level. However, with her Vipralopa Stage powers, very few people in the Grand Celestial World could see through her,” said Ning Wan’ge. “This helps her to conceal herself. The Heavenly Charms Grand Sage’s ability to conceal her own powers is superior to the oysters, and maybe even the Golden Cicada.”
“The fall of master many years ago was not because of her powers.”
“Secondly, because of the War of the Two Worlds, Master Lin forced her to use her powers. This forced her to reveal her true identity, and unlike other demons, she has a chance at recovery despite the fact that the clouds around her have scattered. Hence, in a battle to the death, she can use powers way above her level.”
Ning Wan’ge then said, “Thirdly, her recovery from each Tribulation will be much faster than an ordinary demon.”
“For most people, between the First and Second Tribulations, the most dangerous and arduous one is the First Tribulation. This applies to master and the Heavenly Charms Grand Sage, and their impacts are extremely serious.”
“The most important thing is after they experience it for the first time, all subsequent tribulations will be much easier. Furthermore, their period of weakness after they experience each tribulation will be much shorter. Compared to the Golden Cicada, they are much more powerful. However, their flesh and blood cannot help other demons shorten their recovery phase. Of course, very few people know about this.”
When Wang Lin heard that, he frowned and said, “If that’s the case, can they ascend to the Vipralopa Stage after just a few thousand years in the Greater World? Even if she had experienced a few tribulations only, isn’t this recovery speed still very fast?”
Ning Wan’ge shook her head and said, “I heard about the situation you just mentioned. Indeed, it can’t be that fast. Master did not accomplish that all those years ago, and I doubt that the Heavenly Charms Grand Sage can achieve something like this.”
When Wang Lin heard that, his heart missed a beat. He suddenly thought about something.
During the War of the Two Worlds, while the Great Void Sect and the Celestial Sect of Wonders did not cooperate fully in their battle against demons, they still shared information since they were both human sects. When the Hades Tribe, the Celestial Sect of Wonders informed the Great Void Sect as soon as possible.
With regards to recovery of the leader of the dragons, the Origins Dragon King, from his Second Tribulation, the Great Void Sect too shared the information with the Celestial Sect of Wonders and other human sects.
The powers of the dragons, especially pure-blooded Immemorial Celestial Dragons, were vast. That was something recognized by all. However, despite the powers of the dragons, they could not recover this quickly from their period of weakness.
It was unlikely that the Heavenly Charms Grand Sage received help from them. However, if the Heavenly Charms Grand Sage experienced something miraculous, perhaps the dragons benefitted from it too?
Wang Lin did not care where did the benefit come from. All he cared was whether there would be more of it in the future.
The Heavenly Charms Grand Sage had no reason to worry. She still had a long time before she could experience the Second Tribulation. For the Origins Celestial Dragon, as long as he prepared to experience the Second Tribulation a second time properly, would he be able to experience it again? Would his recovery time be shorter?
Wang Lin thought about it, and with the Dual Dimension Vacuum Charm, he was able to summon the Great Satanic Avatar here. He then instructed it to convey all these to Lin Feng.
Afterward, Wang Lin looked at Ning Wan’ge and said, “Let’s go to the place you mention.”
“We will take Junior Big Luo. While E Shen’s powers are exceptional, but looking at the situation now, it is dangerous for him to bring Junior Big Luo back alone.”
“Second Senior and Little Junior are on their way over to meet us.”
Upon hearing that Zhu Yi and Shi Tianhao were coming over, Ning Wan’ge nodded her head. With Zhu Yi and his Higan Golden Bridge, they would be able to face off against Jingyan. More crucially, they would also be able to face off the Heavenly Charms Grand Sage.
Ning Wan’ge continued, “The Heavenly Charms Grand Sage was forced to scatter her true form and escape because of Lin Feng. In such a short time, she cannot recover, even with her special ability.”
“However, she may ally with the Hades Tribe if they have a common enemy. However, they would have to meet first. Crucially, we do not know where she is.”
If they meet the Heavenly Charms Grand Sage, and Zhu Yi and his Higan Golden Bridge had yet to arrive, then Wang Lin and Ning Wan’ge would be in a difficult position.
In terms of powers, Jingyan was more powerful than the Heavenly Charms Grand Sage if she did not reveal her true form. To Wang Lin, she was the greater threat.
If he faced Jingyan, he could still battle against him. If he met the Heavenly Charms Grand Sage, it would be difficult for him to handle.
Wang Lin said, “There’s no point in talking anymore, let’s hurry up.”
Ning Wan’ge lowered her head. The priority was to head there as soon as possible. Even Jingyan and Yun Cheng would head there once the tempest subsides, much less the Heavenly Charms Grand Sage.
The two of them flew through the void. Suddenly, the ray of white light before them trembled slightly.
“We have arrived!” Ning Wan’ge said. Immediately, her face changed. “Someone reached before us.”
She waved her hands and a colorful light appeared in the black void before her like a thin layer of satin. When Ning Wan’ge used her powers on it, it rippled like water.
Ning Wan’ge took in a deep breath and said, “It’s her.”
Wang Lin revealed her Virtual Entity. His two eyes shone like a pair of mirrors and light could be seen flashing in it. Many different shadows appeared.
At this moment, Wang Lin could see an inter-world passage through the light. However, near the entrance of the inter-world passage, one could see a purple light crisscrossing with white clouds.
The restrictions to the inter-world passage had been eliminated. The blurred and colorful light was cast by someone else, which caused it to be partially obstructed. Even if someone walked past, they would not spot it. Only Ning Wan’ge, who knew about it, could sense it too.
Ning Wan’ge and Wang Lin both pierced through the screen of light to the Outer Realm at the other end of the inter-world passage. They could all feel Heavenly Charms Grand Sage there too.
