This feeling... Wang Baole floated in mid-air. As his hair fluttered, he couldn’t help but narrow his eyes. The seemingly unlimited life force in the surroundings gathered within his body and formed waves of power, continuously pushing his cultivation towards a breakthrough.
This isn’t enough! Wang Baole took a deep breath, and an intense glimmer appeared in his eyes. He took a close look down at the crater below him and, with a flick of his body, turned into a long rainbow, heading straight for another crater.
From his speed, it was obvious that Wang Baole had used all of his cultivation. Like a thunderclap, he appeared instantly above the second crater. The second crater was similar in size to the first, and the bottom of it was full of mush and blood. There was a strong stench of death, and the centipede-like mutants all sensed dangers, raising their heads to screech in unison.
But as the screeches were let out, the mutants were obliterated by a slash from Wang Baole’s Divine Armament. As the heavens shook and the earth rumbled, the entire crater was covered by a glaring light formed by Wang Baole’s spells and Divine Armament. In the next moment, as Wang Baole headed towards another crater without taking another look, everything in the crater was obliterated as the light faded.
All of the mutants died, turning into the numerous demonic eyes behind Wang Baole. They accompanied him, seemingly covering the heavens and earth, as he charged towards the next crater.
Thus, in just two hours, Wang Baole had reached an insane amount of kills as rumbles echoed around the surroundings. Wherever he flew, the craters collapsed, and all of the mutants were obliterated. Regardless of the mutants’ cultivation, whether they were at the Core Formation realm or the Nascent Soul realm, none of them could escape Wang Baole’s attacks.
Wang Baole had no time to bother with the riches and resources the Holy Crest Sect wanted. What he craved now wasn’t resources, it was... the improvement of his cultivation!
This star system was the best place to practice the Demonic Eye Art in Wang Baole’s opinion. There were also no consequences to the murdering. Hence, his craving for the Soul Conduit realm intensified alongside the rise of his cultivation and the life force gushing into his body.
I’m going to break through to... the Soul Conduit realm right here and now!
Wang Baole’s breaths were filled with anticipation. He was just about to continue when he suddenly looked down at his storage bag and took out a voice transmission jade slip. Immediately, the angry and anxious voice of the Holy Crest Sect’s Grand Supreme Elder sounded from the slip.
“Long Nanzi, stop killing this instant!”
After hearing that, a cold glint flashed through Wang Baole’s bloodshot eyes. As he was about to speak, the Holy Crest Sect’s Grand Supreme Elder seemed to notice that the way he spoke previously was slightly inappropriate. So, he took a deep breath and spoke again.
“Elder Long Nanzi, this mutant civilization is very suitable for the future development of our Holy Crest Sect. I know that this incident has made you and the others feel unhappy, but since we found this place this time, I will activate the mandate to return in the future. We will return together!
“Also, I might be selfish, but all of this is for the future of the sect!”
Wang Baole narrowed his eyes. Although he really wanted to break through to the Soul Conduit realm, the words of the Holy Crest Sect’s Grand Supreme Elder brought him to his senses. He noticed that his thoughts were affected by his killing spree and that he had previously been too lax, giving the consciousness within the Demonic Eye Art a chance to take over.
“What are you scared of? Just sacrifice this cursed guy and then sacrifice the rest. Finally, sacrifice this entire star system. You’ll definitely break through to the Soul Conduit realm after that!” As Wang Baole narrowed his eyes, the voice of the consciousness within the Demonic Eye Art echoed in his head, seemingly wishing to continue influencing Wang Baole’s emotions.
Nonsense! Wang Baole thought. Although the consciousness within the Demonic Eye Art did affect him, Wang Baole didn’t care. Even if he killed mindlessly under the influence of the consciousness, it wouldn’t present much of a problem if it were controlled to be within a certain area.
But Wang Baole considered that he still had to remain in the Divine Eye civilization for a period of time in the future and that he would eventually be found out if he switched identities too often. Therefore, Wang Baole decided to reduce the number of killing sprees he went on in the future and limit the cultivation he displayed to be within the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm.
With that, the Holy Crest Sect’s Grand Supreme Elder heaved a sigh of relief. However, he had started to accumulate displeasure towards Wang Baole. Just like that, the meeting time everyone in the Holy Crest Sect agreed on arrived. Everyone flew out of the planets they were in, bringing with them large amounts of resources as they burst towards the cosmos.
Compared to other planets, fear could be seen in the eyes of the fifth elder when he saw Wang Baole. Wang Baole’s killing intent, combined with the obvious strong fluctuations in cultivation coming from Wang Baole’s body, made him realize that Long Nanzi might seem calm and peaceful, but he was actually hiding a deep-seated viciousness.
I better stay away from him!
As everyone gathered and the other elders were happily tabulating their loot, they noticed the change in cultivation of the expressionless Wang Baole. All of their expressions changed slightly as they felt the maliciousness coming from him.
A glimmer flashed across the eyes of the Holy Crest Sect’s Grand Supreme Elder. He suppressed his displeasure towards Wang Baole temporarily and spoke slowly.
“Our loot this time is enough for us to reclaim our sect when we return, and we even have a surplus. But just returning like this isn’t enough. I suggest that we continue traveling!”
If this happened previously, everyone would have to agree, regardless of their own opinions, due to the pressure from the Grand Supreme Elder. However, all of them had looted a fair amount of resources, so they all actively agreed with the Grand Supreme Elder’s decision. Very quickly, the Holy Crest Sect’s battleship took flight once again, leaving this mutant star domain and traveling deeper into the cosmos.
But not long after leaving, Wang Baole left an illusory body in his chambers. With a flick of his body, he disappeared instantly. Using his essence technique, he had left the Holy Crest Sect’s battleship without anyone noticing.
It was hard for even the Holy Crest Sect’s Grand Supreme Elder to notice this. He didn’t know that Wang Baole had already become a cloud of black mist and was traveling at high speeds in the cosmos. He returned to... the mutant civilization!
As he returned, the black mist Wang Baole transmogrified, gathering to form his body. A strange glow appeared in his eyes, and he waved his right hand down violently. Immediately, demonic eyes appeared behind him. Every eye was closed. Although the eyes weren’t open, the sheer number of them was extremely terrifying. At this moment, the Thearch Armor appeared onto Wang Baole’s body, and the Divine Armament spread from his right hand as his cultivation exploded forth.
Combined with the circulation of the Stellar Nascent Soul, the aura around his body immediately exploded forth and spread, causing the surrounding cosmos to warp.
Now... to break through to the Soul Conduit realm! Wang Baole grinned and burst forth, heading straight for the nearest planet!
Looking at Wang Baole from afar, he was like a demon, with vicious flames consuming the sky!
Very quickly, a rumble accompanied Wang Baole’s entry into the first planet and echoed around the surroundings. Every mutant crater on the planet collapsed and was obliterated!
An indescribably strong life force gushed rapidly into Wang Baole’s body, increasing the number of demonic eyes behind him. In the end, they almost formed a giant whirlpool visible from the cosmos. As the demonic eyes covered the planet, they also alarmed all the mutants in the star system.
Shrill screeches echoed, and as the earth rumbled on the third planet, a rainbow centipede at least a thousand feet wide burst out from the ground. An early-stage Soul Conduit realm aura spread throughout the surroundings. Viciousness could be seen in the eyes of the centipede, the body of which was covered in a gray mist. It looked towards the planet Wang Baole was on, and with a roar, it took to the sky, becoming a long rainbow that headed straight towards Wang Baole.
There were also three other mutants who took to the sky from their own planets. Of these three mutants, one was at the early stage of the Soul Conduit realm, one was at the mid stage of the Soul Conduit realm, and one was at the late stage of the Soul Conduit realm. At this moment, they took to the sky in unison, heading straight towards Wang Baole!
As they took to the skies, Wang Baole was standing in mid-air above his planet. Below him, all of the planet’s mutants were obliterated, and behind him, countless demonic eyes threatened to cover the entire sky!
Finally, a few big ones came! Wang Baole narrowed his eyes. As he saw the four mutants appear in the edges of the sky, he grinned. Instead of retreating, he charged forward and unleashed his strength immediately. Bringing the countless demonic eyes behind him, as well as an intense killing intent, he charged towards the four mutants!
