Chapter 813: A Spirit Immortal Descends!
At the same time, on the planet that the Flame Patriarch chose, the words of the Never-Ending Clan member who decided to chase after w.a.n.g Baole spread. When he gave chase personally, he didn’t put away the teleportation jade slip he was grabbing. Instead, he prepared himself to teleport away at any time.
As his body charged out, he also unleashed his maximum cultivation. His perfected stage Soul Conduit cultivation made his speed extremely fast, and it rose continuously. When he caught up to w.a.n.g Baole, his aura had reached its peak. As he raised his palm, the halo formed by the runes outside his body all left his body and formed a giant golden fist. It attacked towards w.a.n.g Baole with a suppressive force seemingly able to cover the sky.
“Die!”
“You!” w.a.n.g Baole had a shocked expression. Under the suppression of the fist, even his aura became unsteady. It was as though a veil was lifted up, revealing the late-stage Soul Conduit cultivation disturbances that truly belonged to him. So the Never-Ending Clan cultivator laughed evilly and increased the power. He unleashed 120% of his power and infused it into the fist formed by his divine power, which then landed in front of w.a.n.g Baole…
The moment the fist landed, translucent crystal chips shone as they appeared everywhere on w.a.n.g Baole’s body and formed a membrane, which was like a water veil, in front of him! Hence, the fist landed in front of w.a.n.g Baole and not on him.
The attack of that perfected stage Soul Conduit Never-Ending Clan member landed on the membrane at that moment. In the next moment, as the membrane trembled, an extremely strong reflection force spread out and exploded forth from the membrane like a blow from an early-stage Spirit Immortal. It crashed towards the shocked Never-Ending Clan cultivator, who was about to crush the teleportation jade slip but found that it was already too late to do so.
As for w.a.n.g Baole, all of the shock and fear on his face disappeared. Replacing it was a look of helplessness. Turning around, he looked at the Never-Ending Clan member who was engulfed by the reflection force storm and sighed with emotion.
“Why? I had already let you go.”
“You’re despicable…” Before the Never-Ending Clan cultivator could even finish his sentence, he was covered by the storm formed by the reflection force. His arms were torn apart, and his body turned to dust in an instant. He only left behind his storage bracelet and the teleportation jade slip, which were grabbed by w.a.n.g Baole after he reformed his body. Just as he was about to check them blissfully… his expression suddenly changed, and his body retreated instantly.
He retreated very quickly. At that moment, his life instinct was almost activated, as even his Thearch Armor transmogrified on his body in an instant to form a defensive barrier. The Dharmic Battles.h.i.+p was taken out by w.a.n.g Baole to s.h.i.+eld himself as well. Meanwhile, his Divine Justice s.h.i.+eld was also activated to cover his entire body for the very first time. One could say that in that short moment, w.a.n.g Baole’s cultivation and everything else on his body was being unleashed in a frenzy.
If not for the fact that the Dao Scripture needed time to activate and couldn’t be used in time, w.a.n.g Baole would have shouted it out. The pig mask’s curse also needed time to be activated and wasn’t suitable at that moment.
As for why he was in such a frenzy, it was because… his intuition and all the cells in his body seemed to be screaming and telling him that there was a giant indescribable danger descending!
The danger shocked w.a.n.g Baole and caused him to, without hesitation, crush the teleportation jade slip he obtained after killing that Never-Ending Clan member.
And just as w.a.n.g Baole crushed the jade slip and retreated, a heaven-shaking and earth-rumbling late-stage Spirit Immortal disturbance descended. It became a fist and landed where w.a.n.g Baole was previously.
Even though w.a.n.g Baole dodged early, the fist was extremely weird. It seemed that so long as it was unleashed, it would definitely hit its target. In the next moment, an illusory shadow of the fist appeared and ignored w.a.n.g Baole’s dodge, landing on his body.
Immediately, the Dharmic Battles.h.i.+p locust, which just appeared in front of w.a.n.g Baole, let out a shrill cry and unleashed its early-stage Spirit Immortal cultivation to resist with its full power. But as rumbles sounded, the Dharmic Battles.h.i.+p locust’s body trembled and started collapsing from the point of collision. This affected half of the Dharmic Battles.h.i.+p’s body, and the donkey within it immediately spat blood. Little Wu’s body also trembled. Although he didn’t spit blood, he let out a shrill cry of pain, the likes of which he had never let out before. In the end, after being heavily injured, the Dharmic Battles.h.i.+p let out a shrill cry and devolved into Dharmic light, returning to w.a.n.g Baole’s storage bracelet.
But that late-stage Spirit Immortal’s fist didn’t stop. After repelling the Dharmic Battles.h.i.+p, although its power was decreased, it was still strong. It landed on w.a.n.g Baole’s body and collided with his Divine Justice s.h.i.+eld!
The spirit-killing power was fully unleashed like never before. The Divine Justice s.h.i.+eld, which was refined to its maximum potential by w.a.n.g Baole, was useful against Soul Conduits, early-stage Spirit Immortals, and even mid-stage Spirit Immortals. But in the end, it wasn’t powerful enough and collapsed when used against a late-stage Spirit Immortal.
The collapse wasn’t without a purpose. When it collapsed, almost 70% of the late-stage Spirit Immortal’s power was reflected back onto the fist by the Divine Justice s.h.i.+eld.
The sound created was heaven-shaking and earth-rumbling. w.a.n.g Baole’s whole body trembled as he spat blood, and he didn’t have time to check it. As the Thearch Armor blocked the remaining waves, his body’s concealment dissipated as well, revealing his original silhouette, which was wearing a pig mask. But he couldn’t care about that at the moment. Without even turning his head, w.a.n.g Baole made use of that force to charge forward rapidly. It was at that moment that the teleportation formed by the crushed jade slip appeared. It wasn’t that the teleportation appeared slowly. In reality, the teleportation was very fast. From the moment w.a.n.g Baole crushed the jade slip until the teleportation was activated, only one to two breaths pa.s.sed.
Truly… the fist of the late-stage Spirit Immortal was faster than him!
But in the end, w.a.n.g Baole bought enough time through the collapse of his Divine Justice s.h.i.+eld and via blocking with his Dharmic Battles.h.i.+p. At that moment, his body… teleported away!
And after he disappeared, a silhouette walked out from the void in midair above where w.a.n.g Baole was previously. The person’s appearance looked like the cultivator who chased after w.a.n.g Baole’s bull-masked man clone, but his appearance changed quickly, and he exposed his original appearance in the end. He was… the late-stage Spirit Immortal elder within the Never-Ending Clan army camp!
The elder’s expression was ugly. As he lowered his head to look at his right index finger, his index finger broke inch by inch. It even affected the rest of his hand, and in the end, his entire palm became a b.l.o.o.d.y mess!
He has tricks up his sleeve and can even transmogrify himself and his aura so seamlessly. At the same time… he’s capable of retaliating so strongly. This disciple must not remain here! The killing intent in the elder’s eyes was intense as he followed the teleportation disturbances with a flick of his body, chasing over as he disappeared in an instant.
All of this was seen clearly by the Flame Patriarch. Seeing the turn in the course of events personally, a tinge of admiration appeared in his eyes.
Not bad, he reacts pretty quickly. I originally thought that brat’s essence body was going to die here. I didn’t expect him to be able to escape without using the curse.
And he seems very courageous… That s.h.i.+eld is also pretty interesting. The Flame Patriarch laughed and was no longer interested in looking at other people. He finished his flame fruit, so he got another and prepared to see whether w.a.n.g Baole could escape successfully in the end.
As he watched, w.a.n.g Baole, who had appeared somewhere else on the planet via the teleportation jade slip, spat out a big mouthful of blood. However, he had no time to feel sad about his losses. At that moment, he instinctively wanted to use that time to unleash the curse.
But he was very unwilling to do so in his heart. If he used the curse now, it wouldn’t reach its maximum effectiveness. At most, it would buy him a bit more time before he got caught. But if he used it at a crucial point in time, it could… possibly give him a chance to retaliate and kill his opponent instead!
G.o.d d*mn it, I won’t use the curse. I’ll find a chance to catch him by surprise and kill that old b*stard! Viciousness and signs of frenzy appeared in w.a.n.g Baole’s eyes as he transformed into mist and split into seven to eight wisps to speed in seven to eight directions. At the same time, there were two other wisps, one of which became a pebble that camouflaged between the other rocks on the ground and remained stationary.
The other wisp dug into the ground and sped deeper into the earth!
As for his true essence body, it turned into a speck of dust and was blown around by the surrounding wind. It made use of the wind to float into the distance. It wasn’t very fast, but he could travel forward continuously.
The moment he finished doing all of that, a disturbance suddenly appeared at the place he had teleported to. As a Spirit Immortal aura spread, the late-stage Spirit Immortal Never-Ending Clan elder chased over. As he swept around with his Divine Sense, the elder had a nasty expression on his face. After locking onto those seven to eight silhouettes, he was about to give chase, but suddenly, his gaze flashed.
Cunning! He humphed and didn’t immediately give chase. Instead, he raised his right leg and slammed it down. Immediately, the surrounding land in a hundred-mile radius was smashed to pieces. Using that to sense the disturbances underground, he split into seven to eight silhouettes and chased after the auras of w.a.n.g Baole he had locked onto.
As for his true body, it dug into the ground and chased w.a.n.g Baole’s Divine Sense, which was quickly digging deeper into the earth.
