A World Worth Protecting

Planet realm patriarch, eh… Within the cosmos, Wang Baole was sitting cross-legged in his Dharmic Battleship after taking off his Emperor Armor. After recalling the previous scene, his eyes slowly narrowed.

I still need to wait a while before I can have the power to fight a Planet realm cultivator. Wang Baole felt the Eternal Star Fire in his body and the Planet realm palm that he was nurturing, but he still heaved a sigh after a long while.

He was very clear that no matter how much he nurtured the palm, it would, at most, have part of a Planet realm cultivator’s power. He might be able to use it to escape from a Planet realm or resist a few blows, but if he wanted to kill a Planet realm, or even fight on level terms with them, it would be extremely impractical.

Unless… I can refine Wuchen’s hand bones… A glimmer appeared in Wang Baole’s eyes. The hand bones of Wuchen’s previous life were fused with the Thearch Armor after Wang Baole obtained them. Now, they could be considered his trump card. After all, they had already become similar to a Divine Armament.

It was just that Wang Baole tried it before on his way back. However, his Eternal Star Fire was too messy and too little. It could refine the Planet realm palm, but it was difficult for it to refine the hand bones of Wuchen’s previous incarnation such that they could unleash their original power.

From this, it’s clear that the cultivation level of Wuchen’s previous incarnation… was at least at the Eternal Star realm. Wang Baole went silent for a moment and suppressed the thought of refining the hand bones of Wuchen’s previous incarnation. He closed his eyes and meditated, thinking about his plans after returning to the Divine Sovereign Justice Sect.

Just like that, time slowly passed. After two days, Wang Baole’s Dharmic Battleship met no obstacles as it traveled and returned to the Divine Sovereign Justice Sect’s territory. He didn’t pay respects to the Sovereign Patriarch, returning to the planet his Soul Rift Legion was on instead.

When he first left, he had left many puppets and ordered them to build his base. So, after he returned, he didn’t see the original barrenness. Instead, like an army camp, all kinds of buildings covered the surroundings, and he could see a large number of puppets busily constructing.

Meanwhile, the number of battleships produced during this period had reached upwards of ten thousand, causing the entire base to look very powerful.

Of course, there would still be some differences in level. After all, materials were in short supply, so he could only use some slightly inferior ones to produce the battleships. Despite this, Wang Baole was still very satisfied.

So, after checking, he ignored Little Wu and the donkey, who were playing around, and sat cross-legged in his secret chamber, alone. After gathering his thoughts, Wang Baole wasted no time and raised his right hand. As he waved it, a jade slip appeared. The moment it appeared, he applied to the Divine Sovereign Justice Sect to challenge a high-ranked army!

“The Soul Rift Legion wishes to challenge the second army!”

Wang Baole felt that it would be highly unlikely for him to succeed if he challenged the top army of the Divine Sovereign Justice Sect. And the army commander of the fourth army did treat him with kindness previously. Moreover, Wang Baole naturally wouldn’t challenge Fairy Ling You’s army, which was ranked fifth.

Thus, only the third and second armies were left. He would inevitably suffer some losses during the challenge, and Wang Baole didn’t wish to waste any time, so he decided to challenge the latter.

After paying enough resources, such a challenge application still needed some time to be processed and approved because it involved a Spirit Immortal cultivator. And while Wang Baole was waiting for the result, news of his battle with the Black Rift Legion’s commander also gradually spread and slowly shook the surroundings.

It was very difficult to censor all information about that battle. After all, some cultivators from other powers saw the battle happening in the cosmos from afar. At the same time, the disturbances caused by the battle were pretty huge. A battle between Spirit Immortals would naturally attract the attention of others. That was especially so considering that the cultivation of the former Ink Dragon Legion commander was mostly damaged, causing the news to become even more sensational.

“Long Nanzi returns with a bang! He damaged the cultivation of the Black Rift Legion’s vice-commander!”

“Long Nanzi found extremely good opportunities in foreign realms. His cultivation has improved by leaps and bounds. He’s stepped directly into the Spirit Immortal realm from the Soul Conduit realm!”

“The Divine Sovereign Justice Sect has another immortal!”

“When Long Nanzi returned, he fought the Violet Gold New Dao Sect and had the upper hand!”

All kinds of information spread gradually, alongside numerous inhales in the Divine Eye civilization. Naturally, the Divine Sovereign Justice Sect cultivators heard it. In fact, what they knew was even more accurate than the rumors from the outside world.

This incident already shook the Divine Sovereign Justice Sect cultivators. Moreover, within the sect, news of the Soul Rift Legion wanting to challenge the second army spread. Hence, the Divine Sovereign Justice Sect became lively again.

Not only did cultivators below the Spirit Immortal realm pay attention to this, even Spirit Immortal cultivators couldn’t help but pay close attention. For example, Fairy Ling You left her planet and headed to the Soul Rift Legion to meet Wang Baole at the earliest possible moment.

They only met for 30 minutes, but when Fairy Ling You left, her fifth army immediately announced that Fairy Ling You was willing to become the Soul Rift Legion’s vassal on her own accord. This was equivalent to Wang Baole’s status in Fairy Ling You’s army. At the same time, she announced that her army would be forming a deeper alliance with the Soul Rift Legion and that they would progress together from then on!

And after Fairy Ling You left, the fourth army’s army commander, who was originally lying on the Black Armored Beetle near the border and had helped Wang Baole previously, laughed after pondering for a while. Afterward, he arranged for one of his subordinates to give a huge gift to the Soul Rift Legion.

That already showed his kindness!

All of this made the name Long Nanzi become discussed by everyone in the Divine Eye civilization. Meanwhile, Wang Baole, who was being watched closely by all forces, was holding a jade slip and sending off a cultivator in the cosmos.

The one he was sending off was the vice-commander of the fourth army, a False Immortal with extraordinary cultivation.

The jade slip was the gift that the commander of the fourth army sent. Within it, detailed information about the second army was recorded.

Time Circle Legion… this name is pretty unique. After Wang Baole checked the jade slip and compared it with what Fairy Ling You told him when she came and with what he previously knew, he already had a clear idea of what the second army of the Divine Sovereign Justice Sect was like.

Army Commander Daoist Ku Ling has cultivation at the mid-stage Spirit Immortal realm. He has five False Immortals as his subordinates. Moreover, their development method is different from that of the first army. The Time Circle Legion doesn’t have any branch teams and has gathered all of their strength within their army! Thinking and weighing the pros and cons, Wang Baole already had a preliminary analysis in his heart.

The main point of this battle isn’t Daoist Ku Ling but the five False Immortals! Wang Baole lowered his head and looked at his palm. After flipping them, five rings appeared in the middle of his palm.

The five rings all had different colors and were lent to him temporarily by Fairy Ling You when she came. Once he sacrificed them, he could seal a False Immortal cultivator for two hours!

Interesting. It looks like there are still many people who hate the first army. Fairy Ling You gave me sealing rings, while the fourth army sent me detailed information. Although these are acts of kindness, they were done more so because they realize that my ultimate goal is the first army. They want me to go fight the first army and wear them out. A glimmer flashed between Wang Baole’s eyes. With his intelligence, it wasn’t difficult for him to realize that.

So be it, we all have our needs! When Wang Baole smiled, he seemed to notice something and raised his head towards the heavens. And as he raised his head, the heavens rumbled, and a giant black hole was ripped open from the heavens. It was like a tunnel, and a dignified voice spread throughout the planet that the Soul Rift Legion was on.

“Soul Rift Legion wishes to challenge the Time Circle Legion. Approved. The challenge will begin in ten breaths!”

So fast? Wang Baole narrowed his eyes, and his body flew out with a flick. As he raised his right hand, the Emperor Armor instantly covered his entire body, and his Spirit Immortal cultivation exploded forth. His silhouette didn’t stop as it shot towards the black hole in the sky like a shooting star!

He entered in an instant and immediately disappeared.

When he appeared, he was to the northwest of the Sovereign Planet. He appeared in a barren land filled with meteorites!

There were many meteorites there, and they spread towards the surroundings. Looking from afar, it was like a sea of meteorites. That was where the Time Circle Legion was located. All the meteorites had bases on them, and at that moment, numerous cultivators dressed in black were staring coldly at where Wang Baole appeared.

Looking at the place, the sheer number of cultivators there was uncountable. There were also numerous battleships floating between the meteorites, seemingly forming a border that could seal everything!

That was especially so because, within the numerous cultivators, there were five auras that shook the heavens and earth like five moons. Those were False Immortal disturbances, and they brought with them a sense of destruction along with their swift fierceness. And on the meteorite between the five auras, a middle-aged man sat cross-legged. The man wore white robes and had a head of long hair. He seemed elegant, but he held a beast bone in his hands and was opening his mouth, swallowing it mouthful by mouthful.

This scene landed in Wang Baole’s eyes and caused him to faintly narrow them. He cupped his fists towards where the white-robed man was and bowed slightly.

“Greetings, Daoist Ku Ling.”

“Long Nanzi, do you dare to come forward and have a few drinks with me?” Daoist Ku Ling tilted his head, and an eerie glint appeared in his eyes. He flashed a sinister smile as he suddenly spoke.
