Chapter 1258: That Scream…

The third level was a world of metal. Everything from the roof, walls to the ground was all made of thick metal. Moreover, there were obvious energy fluctuations radiating from the inside. No wonder he could not detect the presence of this place with his spiritual power perception. His spiritual wave had absolutely no way to spy on the inside through such thick and heavy defense.

A thick and heavy metal door was guarded by ten Spirit Pagoda personnel carrying loaded guns.

“The clothes are here. This is the deputy Pagoda Master’s warrant.” Gu Feifei walked forward and passed over the warrant in her hand to the person.

“Let them pass.” The door slowly opened after Tang Wulin and Gu Feifei’s identity tokens were verified. Tang Wulin saw that the metal door’s thickness was about one meter.

‘This is the place.’ He held the clothes in his hand as he probed into the area with his spiritual power.

Gu Feifei walked at the most front with her hip twisting and buttocks shaking such that the guards by the door swallowed their saliva in lust. Tang Wulin was naturally neglected. However, they were unaware that following the opening of the metal door, Tang Wulin’s spiritual power quickly spread into the room and searched the inside world behind the metal door.

He soon sensed the danger in this place. His danger perception had developed after his spiritual cultivation base achieved a certain extent. In other words, the defense system here threatened him.

There were not too many people here. The entire world was basically almost the same as Spirit Pagoda. Tang Wulin soon sensed a familiar aura. He was suddenly shocked. A rather familiar aura that he seemed to know appeared in his spiritual perception.

‘This is…’

Tang Wulin could only feel his heart rate abruptly accelerate as he subconsciously clenched his grip over the clothes.

It had been ten years after the event. He had even found himself unable to confirm whether the aura he sensed was actually what he was seeking, but it felt extremely familiar to him. However, he found it slightly peculiar that he had not sensed any connection of bloodlines. This was the reason why he did not manage to recognize it at once.

Gu Feifei walked to a side of the metal door and pressed a button.

Soon a man dressed in black attire walked out from the inside.

The person had a mask over his head that completely concealed his face, revealing only his eyes, nose, and mouth. The very moment he appeared, Tang Wulin was greatly startled. It was because he was albeit not acquainted with the man, but the person’s aura was too familiar to him.

It was an aura filled with icy coldness, viciousness, and indifference. It felt as if everything on the outside was unrelated to him. His hands were so ghastly pale such that not a dash of pink could be seen. His eyes were dark purple in color akin to two dark purple flames leaping in his eyes.

Evil soul master! It was surprisingly an evil soul master!

Even though Tang Sect and Shrek Academy had always been speculating that Spirit Pagoda could possibly be related to Holy Spirit Cult. How could Tang Wulin not be surprised to meet an evil soul master in Spirit Pagoda, moreover it was at such an intimate location in Spirit Pagoda’s branch? He had not found his parents yet he encountered such a secret. There was no doubt that this had proven the connection between Holy Spirit Cult and Spirit Pagoda!

“Hello. Your uniform is here,” said Gu Feifei in fear.

“Give that to me.” The black-clothed man’s voice sounded deep and hoarse. He immediately took the uniform in Tang Wulin’s hands as he raised his hand and closed the metal door.

The metal door closed slowly. It was apparent that he did not intend to invite Tang Wulin and Jia Fei Fei into the room. Gu Feifei was relieved. She turned around and left in a manner similar to fleeing the scene. Every time Tang Wulin saw these people, he would feel an intense fear in his heart that was beyond description.

“Argh…” Meanwhile, a piercing scream was suddenly heard from the inside.

Tang Wulin who was originally following behind Gu Feifei moved upon hearing the sound. His hand blocked the metal door that was about to close with strength and precision.

The metal door’s closing force was unimaginably strong and it was completely under mechanical control. Yet, it was rendered incapable of resisting his palm as it paused in a split second.

The black-clothed man was walking forward after closing the door when he suddenly stopped. He turned around and looked towards the door in puzzlement. He watched as the thick heavy door that was in the closing process being pulled open by force.

Tang Wulin did not have the slightest hesitation. His right foot abruptly stamped against the ground accompanied by a valiant dragon’s roar. Violent tremors instantaneously blasted the black-clothed evil soul master into the sky. Golden dragons rose into the sky in an instant and caught up to his body before slamming onto it like bombs. The evil soul master with at least five-ringed cultivation base exploded into a dense fog of flesh and blood.

Golden radiance flashed once behind his back as Tang Wulin’s pair of Golden Dragon King’s wings had already spread open. His body swayed once as he pounced toward the direction of the scream earlier at full speed.

If one were to say that he could not completely identify the aura earlier, then that piercing scream earlier was sufficient for him identity many things.

That was obviously his father’s voice!

Even though more than ten years had passed, Tang Wulin could never forget his father’s voice in eternity.

When he was still very young, his father would frequently teach him how to be a good person and behave properly. He would never forget his father’s words. ‘In this world, the only person you can completely trust and rely on is yourself.’

His father told him that he was only truly powerful if he himself could become powerful at the time.

The words had always influenced Tang Wulin all along as he was growing day by day.

His father’s scream earlier sounded pressing, filled with rage and pain. How could Tang Wulin possibly control himself anymore?

Behind the metal door was a spacious room with rooms inside. Tang Wulin completely relied on the guidance of sound as he dashed his way to a particular room. He used his body as a human weapon as he directly slammed into the door and broke it by force.

He stretched out his double golden dragon claws and tore away the metal before he dashed into the room.

On the other side, he witnessed a scene that almost made his eyes crack in anger when he entered through the door.

There were seven to eight men dressed in black clothes in the room. They had the exact attire as the black-clothed man earlier. Other than them, there were also a few people already lying in a pool of blood on the floor. The black-clothed man standing at the most front raised his right arm and turned his right hand into a mantis-like front leg. The claw in front of his hand had penetrated a body and the body was raised high in the air.

The person who was pierced and was struggling on the sharp claw right now was precisely Tang Wulin’s father, Tang Ziran who had gone missing for over a decade.

Tang Wulin’s eyes had almost reddened in rage upon witnessing the scene. Even though he could already sense that there was at least one Title Douluo-rank powerhouse, how could he even think rationally at this moment?

He strenuously flapped the golden wings on his back once. His entire person rammed into the leader akin to a bomb. He swung his right golden dragon claw as he used his Golden Dragon Nirvana Divine Claw straight onto the person.

Massive golden claw’s shadow enshrouded almost more than half of the black-clothed man on the scene.

His appearance was too sudden. It had only been less than a second from the moment the dragon’s roar was heard until Tang Wulin broke through the door. In addition, he swung his Golden Dragon Nirvana Divine Claw as an attack without the slightest hesitation, everything had happened within a split second.

“Boom!” Three black-clothed men were instantly torn into pieces by the Golden Dragon Nirvana Divine Claw. These people included the leader that was using his front arm to pierce through Tang Ziran’s body.

Tang Wulin hugged his father and rapidly infused his soul power into his father’s body to seal all the blood vessels near the wounds.

Tang Ziran who was having a facial spasm due to the intense pain could not help being stunned when he saw Tang Wulin.

Who was this chubby person?

Tang Wulin extended a vine of Bluesilver Emperor from his body that tied around Tang Ziran’s body. He carried Tang Ziran’s body on his back while at the same time, the Golden Dragon Spear appeared in his hand as he pierced toward the back of his body, launching Thousand Accusing Fingers!

Thousands of spear tips shot out intensely. Every stream carried a tinge of blue-gold radiance that enshrouded the rest of the black-clothed men who had already reacted to the situation.
