Chapter 816: Avatar With a Broken Arm!
This scene was witnessed from start to finish by the Flame Patriarch. He grinned.
“If he makes me happy when I watch him, I can still give this brat some rewards.” Speaking, he took out another flame fruit and ate it with gusto. Right now, he had already stopped watching other people and was prepared to watch Wang Baole’s live stream from start to finish.
And in the live stream’s image, Wang Baole, who had already flown away, suddenly stopped and disappeared in the next moment, returning back to the forest.
Seeing that, the Flame Patriarch got even more interested. As he looked, he saw the bull-masked burly man within the forest… The burly man noticed that Wang Baole had left at that moment and struggled as he climbed up. But the anger in his heart caused by the heavy injuries on his body and the loss of his Dharmic treasures made him feel as though his entire body was out of energy. He sat there and stared blankly for a while as fury and indignance slowly appeared in his eyes. In the end, he raised his right hand and slammed it down beside him as he growled. But, not waiting for him to speak, Wang Baole’s faint voice sounded from behind him.
“Seeing how you’ve shown filial respect to your daddy by giving me so many items, I’ll speak first without waiting for you to scold me.”
The bull-masked burly man’s expression suddenly changed, and he immediately turned his head and inhaled. He stared nervously and fearfully at Wang Baole, who had already left but returned for an unknown reason. He had turned into a bird and was standing on a tree branch.
“Senior, let me explain…” The bull-masked burly man was about to cry and quickly tried to resolve the issue. But Wang Baole, who had turned into a bird, rolled his eyes and spoke coldly.
“There’s no need to explain. I came back to give you a gentle reminder that the Never-Ending Clan’s Spirit Immortal… should be arriving soon. That old guy loves to destroy everything in a hundred-mile, maybe even a thousand-mile radius the moment he arrives. So… be careful.”
After he spoke, Wang Baole threw a deep, profound look at the bull-masked burly man before flying into the distance quickly with a flick of his body and a flap of his wings.
Seeing Wang Baole fly into the distance again, the bull-masked burly man was already in no mood to analyze whether Wang Baole had really left or not. What appeared in his mind was Wang Baole’s final words. The more he thought, the more fearful he became. In the end, he gritted his teeth and unleashed an unknown spell. After that, the injuries on his body mostly healed in just a few breaths.
Without hesitation, the burly man leaped up, his face becoming unnaturally red as he unleashed the maximum power he could unleash at that point in time. He sped into the distance and immediately teleported after leaving the area. In fact, he was still worried, and when he reappeared in the distance, he sped forward again and teleported many times. When he was thousands of miles away, he heard dull rumbles sounding behind him, and it felt as though the earth was trembling. At that moment, his breathing hastened as he escaped again.
Truly, behind him, the place that was once a forest had already become a crater. In a radius hundreds of miles from the forest, everything had been obliterated by the late-stage Spirit Immortal Never-Ending Clan elder, seemingly in a bid to vent his anger.
Although Wang Baole didn’t see those things personally, he could mostly guess what happened in his heart. At that moment, he was already at an even further away area. He found a cave, burrowed in, sat cross-legged, and looked at his loot. The sheer amount of possessions the bull-masked burly man had made Wang Baole extremely satisfied.
As for that sealed jade box, the bull-masked burly man’s cultivation wasn’t enough, and he found it hard to activate. But Wang Baole had a Dharmic Battleship. Even though his Dharmic Battleship had previously been heavily injured, Wang Baole wasn’t short on Stone Bamboos and had already fed his Dharmic Battleship many Stone Bamboos as he escaped. Now, although his Dharmic Battleship hadn’t fully recovered, it no longer had any major issues.
So, by using his Dharmic Battleship’s early-stage Spirit Immortal power, Wang Baole successfully opened the box. He saw inside it… four black daggers!
The four daggers looked very ordinary, and there was nothing unusual about them. Even though there was a weak blue glow on their blades as though they had poison on them, people wouldn’t be too bothered by it after seeing it.
Even when Wang Baole held a dagger, it was like holding a child’s toy. He almost used his finger to test its sharpness. But as his finger was about to touch it, Wang Baole’s expression suddenly changed. After forcefully controlling his actions, he thoroughly recollected his mental state just now and slowly inhaled. His expression became extremely stern.
This dagger is very weird!
The black color can already catch people’s attention. Moreover, the jade box it was stored in required the power of a Spirit Immortal to be activated. And the venom on it… All of this shows that these four daggers are extraordinary and pose a certain degree of danger. How could I close one eye to this sort of danger…
It’s not even closing one eye… While the sense of existence of the daggers sharply decreased, it also affected my judgment, causing me to ignore it subconsciously. Even if I noticed it, I would instinctively feel that there wasn’t much danger! After Wang Baole analyzed it, his breathing quickened as he suppressed the strong feeling in his heart to ignore the daggers. He then held the dagger and sliced it lightly towards the wall beside him.
With just a light touch, the stone wall was sliced open easily like a piece of tofu. It would be fine if it was just like that. What made Wang Baole inhale was that the edges where the stone wall was sliced open immediately rotted, and numerous small holes appeared as though it was corroded!
That made Wang Baole’s hairs stand on end. Although he didn’t really do deep research on poison, he knew a bit. So he understood that poisons that could affect living things weren’t much. Those poisons that could even affect non-living things were the really powerful ones.
Because, to a certain extent, they couldn’t even be considered a poison. Instead, they contained a sort of nomological power and could change an object’s form and essence. The domineering force they represented could ignore defenses.
Wang Baole shuddered, and after judging thoroughly, he had a faint intuition that the four daggers… weren’t only special assassination weapons and that the extent of their power could threaten even Spirit Immortals. If not, they wouldn’t have been sealed within a jade box that only Spirit Immortals could open.
So Wang Baole cautiously placed the dagger back into the jade box. After resealing it, he stored it in his storage bracelet. Afterwards, he sat there, his eyes shining faintly.
There’s not much time before the mission ends… I can’t keep going on like this! Wang Baole narrowed his eyes, and a cold gimmer flashed between them. A killing intent grew increasingly intense in his heart.
I can’t let a late-stage Spirit Immortal ruin my plans. The Never-Ending Clan still deserves to be killed… I’ll just have to think carefully about how to carry it out and how to escape once I get noticed. In fact… I have to think about how to create chances for retaliation!
Although there’s almost no chance for me to retaliate… Wang Baole touched the mask on his face, and decisiveness appeared in his expression. After killing the three Soul Conduit Never-Ending Clan members, he already felt that under the propelling of the Demonic Eye Art, his cultivation had reached a maximum point of activeness, and he was very close to achieving a breakthrough.
Under Wang Baole’s calculations, he felt that so long as he killed enough, he could achieve a breakthrough here and reach the perfected stage Soul Conduit realm. So Wang Baole gritted his teeth, opened his storage bracelet, and started arranging his items.
The item he had the most of in his storage bracelet was self-destructing battleships. Those battleships had a huge effect during cosmos battles. But in conflicts between cultivators, they were unsuitable due to their size.
So what Wang Baole had to do first was disassemble 30% of his battleships, take out their core components, and create Dharmic Artifacts similar to self-exploding beads. Because all of the battleships were created by Wang Baole and since he had enough puppets to assist him, the process didn’t take very long. Wang Baole used a certain level of sacrifice in exchange for a large number of self-exploding beads.
It’s a shame I don’t know how to set up array formations! After storing all of his self-exploding beads and calculating how much time he had before the end of his mission, Wang Baole sighed with emotion. He felt that one would only feel like they lacked knowledge when they needed it. He secretly thought that he had to do some research on this area in the future. He didn’t look to completely master it, but he wanted to learn how to set up some powerful array formations.
With that decision in mind, Wang Baole started planning. His plan was very simple, to lead the Spirit Immortal away, then find a chance to infiltrate the army camp and start murdering.
After all, not all of the Never-Ending Clan members were activated, and there were still some reserves in the army camp. Wang Baole had personally seen that, so he had quite a clear target. The only difficult thing was… figuring out how to make the late-stage Spirit Immortal Never-Ending Clan elder believe him and really be led away.
You must lose a fly to catch a trout! Viciousness appeared in Wang Baole’s eyes as he raised his right hand and grabbed his left arm. With a hard pull, he tore it off!
Even if it was only his essence body, it still hurt. Persevering through the intense pain, Wang Baole weaved hand seals and used his essence body’s arm as a core to form another avatar!
The avatar was very different from the ones formed by his Divine Sense previously. In fact, no matter how one looked at it, it was very realistic. Truly, it was indeed that way. To a certain extent, it could be considered Wang Baole’s avatar.
