Nado's Storage Bag Left Behind

With this Middle-Grade Immortal Treasure, his strength could undergo a qualitative leap. He might even have the power to fight a Peak Stage expert.

Though he could not kill them, trapping them for a moment should be more than enough.

Lin Che put away the system-rewarded Nine-Layered Exquisite Pagoda and looked toward the entrance. At the same time, the special reward for this trial surfaced in his mind.

When he had first been transported to the Ancient God's Land, he had considered breaking every restriction here.

However, his strength had been too weak at the time, and there had also been many cultivators who had come to the Ancient God's Land, so he could only abandon the idea.

Now that he had returned, Lin Che naturally would not leave again. Besides, breaking all the restrictions here would grant him the things Ancient God Tu Si had left behind.

Lin Che raised his hands before his chest, touching his index fingers and thumbs together to form a diamond-shaped seal. He then chanted softly, and a beam of brilliant golden light shot from his fingertips.

The pillar of light soared into the sky, while an immense force suddenly enveloped the entire summit of Restriction Mountain, instantly destroying every restriction.

As the restrictions were destroyed, the mountain summit before them began to shake violently. Even more powerful energy then surged toward them like raging waves.

Even Lin Che, at the middle stage of the Soul Formation Stage, could clearly feel his Nascent Soul trembling madly.

"So this is Ancient God Tu Si's true strength? It truly defies all imagination!"

Xu Liguo was horrified and immediately hid on Lin Che's body. Trembling in fear, he said, "What kind of energy is this? It's terrifying beyond belief. Master, let's get out of here quickly."

At that moment, a golden silhouette suddenly appeared. The instant its radiance shrouded the area, a giant hundreds of thousands of feet tall slowly emerged, its immense energy instantly suppressing Lin Che until he could not move in the slightest.

"My name is Tu Si. You have broken every restriction on this summit of Restriction Mountain. I bestow upon you the title of the third Great Comprehender of Restriction Mountain and grant you the Jade Slip for crafting a Forbidden Banner."

"If you can enter my true body's Sea of Consciousness, you may obtain part of my restriction memories by virtue of your status as a comprehender. Every comprehender may also obtain an Inkstone Stone within my Sea of Consciousness. This Inkstone Stone is not produced on any planet, only in the Starry Sky."

"It is an essential material for crafting restrictions. As long as you carve nine hundred ninety-nine thousand nine hundred ninety-nine restrictions upon it, you can create a Forbidden Banner. Young one, take care of yourself."

Lin Che accepted the Ancient God's restriction inheritance and respectfully cupped his hands toward the phantom before him. "Thank you, Senior."

Xu Liguo asked, "Master, who is this person? For you to be so respectful, could he be a Peak Stage expert?"

"Peak Stage?" Lin Che replied coldly. "This person is Eight-star Ancient God Tu Si. His strength has long reached a realm beyond perfection. Peak Stage cultivators are nothing more than ants before him."

"However, Tu Si is already dead. This is merely a special projection he left behind and poses no threat to us. Let's go."

Xu Liguo twitched his lips. He had originally thought this giant might be able to kill the Fiend Star, but it seemed that chance was gone now.

What a pity. Such a pity.

After leaving the second trial, Lin Che was transported to a Treasure Pavilion. This was also a place only comprehenders of Restriction Mountain could enter.

Back then, Lin Che had not completely broken all the restrictions on Restriction Mountain, so he had not been transported here or obtained the items within the Treasure Pavilion.

If he remembered correctly, there should be a special treasure in this Treasure Pavilion, something left behind by the powerful cultivator who had comprehended the restrictions back then.

There were no other structures on the top floor. At its center stood only something resembling a candlestick, with a drawer inside it. Yet the drawer contained nothing.

Anyone else might have chosen to leave upon seeing that there was nothing here, but Lin Che, as a transmigrator, knew perfectly well that there was a hidden compartment inside the drawer.

Lin Che suddenly exerted force with his right hand, instantly shattering the energy covering the hidden compartment. A completely blood-red Storage Bag then appeared before him.

"It really is here."

Lin Che narrowed his eyes as he looked at the unusual Storage Bag in his hand. He did not care much for the other items inside, but the Star Chart would be of great use.

The blood-red energy floating around the Storage Bag was presumably the restriction Nado had left behind.

Nado had been at the peak of the Peak Stage, so the soul power he had set naturally could not be underestimated. With Lin Che's current strength, he could open it, but it would take a great deal of time.

What Lin Che lacked most right now was time. He had no time to break the restriction Nado had left on the Storage Bag.

If Tuosen learned that he was here, he would surely send Blood Sea General Do Mu and the others to pursue and intercept him, preventing him from obtaining the Ancient God Inheritance of Memories.

Without hesitation, Lin Che put away the Storage Bag and turned toward the vortex floating in midair. This should be the entrance to the third trial.

According to the original novel's description, the third trial was not elsewhere, but the Silent Extinction Space of the Ancient God Inheritance.

The Silent Extinction Space contained countless wandering souls and Soul Devourers. Its dangers were no less than those of any other place, and the slightest carelessness could result in being devoured by the wandering souls here.

However, Lin Che laughed. This place was also the perfect blessed land for raising his cultivation. As long as he gathered all the wandering souls into his Human Sovereign Banner, its power would surely grow greatly.

"I'm finally back."

Lin Che lightly stepped onto a floating stone, and immense energy instantly spread in all directions. Every wandering soul that touched this energy exploded and perished.

As the energy surged forth, wandering souls within a thousand miles sensed the aura and swarmed toward him, seemingly intending to devour Lin Che's physical body.

Lin Che formed a hand seal, and a peculiar Forbidden Banner quietly appeared to his left.

The image of a Human Sovereign was often depicted on the Forbidden Banner. His figure was imposing, his bearing majestic, and his gaze deep and resolute, as though he overlooked all things in the world.

Lifelike dragon patterns coiled around it as well. Their bodies twisted and curled, their scales gleaming with golden light.

Their whiskers drifted in the air, and their eyes shone brightly, displaying the supreme authority of imperial power and its sacred inviolability.

Moreover, the Forbidden Banner was covered in all sorts of intricate and mysterious runes. They flickered with strange radiance like twinkling stars, exuding an ancient and powerful aura.

Yet as Lin Che infused it with Immortal Power, an extremely dense black mist still poured wildly from the Forbidden Banner, carrying the sensation of devouring all things and causing countless wandering souls to recoil.
