š Chapter 1149 - Fleshly Body Breaks Through!
Howeverā¦ although more and more green wisps were arriving, the black hole that sucked them in would only form once all the fragmented natural laws were absorbed. In other words, without completely sucking the furnaces dry, Wang Baole wouldnāt be able to use his usual strategy of sitting and waiting for the green wisps.
Going and catching them by himself would take a long time. In a different situation, maybe he would have done just that, but right now, he was trapped by some bizarre technique, and the cultivators in his surrounding were all going crazy trying to kill him.
Thus, Wang Baoleās eyes flashed with cold light. He dodged another barrage of crazed attacks and started using some special techniques to increase the rate at which fragmented natural laws poured into his body. His intrinsic scabbard swiftly began growing more and more transparent.
But at that moment, the little girlās voice faintly echoed in Wang Baoleās ears again.
āUncle, you only have an incense stickās worth of timeā¦ After that, this place will pop like a bubble. Everyone inside will die.
āAnd of course, that includes you, too.ā The little girl laughed after speaking. As her bell-like laughter resounded in his ears, Wang Baole felt an extremely powerful sense of crisis. His intuition was telling him that the girlās words were correct. If he couldnāt escape within an incense stickās worth of timeā¦ he would end up in a fatal situation.
āJust pretending to be mysterious!ā Wang Baoleās eyes flashed coldly as he tried to figure out the little girlās identity. With her bizarre abilities, it was possible that she wasnāt the little girl he had seen in the Starfall Realm at all.
But in any case, the first person he ruled out was Zi Yue!
No matter how deep Zi Yueās background was, Wang Baole didnāt believe that she could be so incredible as to even fool his senior brotherās senses. Moreover, Chen Qingzi had already been on guard against Zi Yue in the first place, so the possibility that she was the little girl was negligible.
As for the blood-colored centipedeā¦ Wang Baole wasnāt certain. But just as he tried thinking about it further, the cultivators all around him went even crazier. The woman who had transformed into a silver dragon slashed out with her claws, and silver threads suddenly appeared out of nowhere to bind Wang Baole.
The young man with the five ancient swords also moved, attacking with astonishing lethality. His five ancient swords pierced toward the same spot from five different directions, slicing through the void as if it were paper.
As for the prince of the Never-Ending Clan, although he couldnāt tie his enemies in place as easily as the silver dragon woman and his lethality wasnāt as great as the young man with the ancient swords, his overall cultivation was well-rounded. Furthermore, his cultivation base was so deep that it touched the line of the Star Domain Realm.
Therefore, every time the three of them attacked, Wang Baole had no choice but to retreat immediately. It wasnāt that he couldnāt fight them, but if he got bogged down in battle, then the dozens of other great circle Eternal Star Realm cultivators would instantly drown him in attacks. Even Wang Baole would find it difficult to overcome such a situation.
āItās okay. From our earlier conversation, Senior Brother should have been able to detect something strangeā¦ā Wang Baole narrowed his eyes. When the three leaders attacked again, he suddenly formed hand seals with his right hand, and the star chart appeared behind him. The divine ox projection let out a heaven-shaking roar and charged forward.
Rumbling instantly reverberated outward, and ripples of power spread violently in all directions. Everyone in the surroundings was instantly forced backward, and many couldnāt help but cough up blood.
However, Wang Baole wasnāt completely carefree, either. His complexion was slightly pale as his body retreated rapidly. At that moment, he decisively cut off his connection with one furnace and focused all his attention on the other, gritting his teeth and madly pushing the intrinsic scabbard to absorb fragmented natural laws even faster.
He could sense that he had already absorbed half of the fragmented natural laws in the furnace. If he wanted to absorb the rest, he needed about thirty breaths of time!
āThirty breaths!ā Wang Baoleās eyes turned bloodshot. Seeing his opponents rally for another attack, he instantly summoned the Nightmare Eye.
āOpen!ā Rumbling echoed out as the closed Nightmare Eye behind Wang Baole flew open. Profound light flickered in its depths, turning into a wave of mind-shaking power that temporarily stunned everyone rushing in.
Wang Baole suddenly winced as pain assaulted his mind. Just now, he had used the Nightmare Eye Art with too much strength and enveloped too many people with its gaze. Thus, his mind received a backlash, and cracks began appearing on the Nightmare Eye behind him. It seemed that it would break down before too long.
But Wang Baole couldnāt afford to care too much about that. As soon as the eyeās gaze froze his enemies, overlapping shadows suddenly appeared on Wang Baoleās body. Using the Essence Clone Technique, his nine Eternal quasi-Dao Stars quickly turned into nine clones that rushed out and started killing.
The ten thousand Special Stars in his star chart also descended and turned into clones one by one. Although they werenāt as strong as the Eternal Star clones, which were themselves weaker than Wang Baoleās true self, each of them had certain abilities. Even if they couldnāt directly kill everyone here, they could stand guard around Wang Baole and buy him some time.
As for Wang Baole himself, he settled down into the furnace and placed all his attention on absorbing fragmented natural laws.
A moment later, the surrounding cultivators broke free of the Nightmare Eye Art and unfroze. They immediately unleashed heaven-shaking attacks toward Wang Baole. At the same time, while Wang Baoleās star clones fought off his enemies, his true self had finally absorbed 70% of the furnaceās fragmented natural laws.
Cold light flashed in his eyes, and surging killing intent welled up within him. Even if the reason everyone was attacking him was because their minds had been influenced by the little girl, Wang Baoleās killing intent didnāt weaken in the slightest.
That was because of what was happening with his nine Eternal quasi-Dao Star clones. Although they were doing their best to obstruct the three strongest experts here, they were still forced back bit by bit. Moreover, the clones were even destroyed again and again. Although they reformed each time, cracks were clearly starting to form on the Eternal Stars at their core.
Once they collapsed, Wang Baole would receive a significant backlash.
As for the clones formed by his ten thousand Special Stars, most of them had already been destroyed. The dozens of people here had really gone crazy, blowing themselves up at every chance. Each time someone self-detonated, some of the clones would end up completely wiped out.
The killing intent in Wang Baoleās heart became stronger and stronger the more he watched. Meanwhile, the intrinsic scabbard in his body seemed to be able to sense his crisis. Its suction force increased, and it began absorbing fragmented natural laws even faster.
80%, 90%ā¦
The moment Wang Baole finally absorbed 90% of the fragmented natural laws inside the furnace, seven or eight cultivators blew themselves up at the same time, and a gap suddenly opened in the ten thousand clones guarding him.
But Wang Baoleās expression didnāt change as he silently recited the Dao Scripture in his heart.
Soon, cultivators came pouring in through the gap with reddened eyes. However, before they could get close, the might of the Dao Scripture appeared. Indescribable pressure instantly weighed down on the dozens of people rushing toward Wang Baole, and even those behind them couldnāt help but tremble violently.
Taking advantage of this chance, his clones immediately launched a counterattack. At the same time, the intrinsic scabbard inside Wang Baoleās bodyā¦ finally absorbed the final 10% of the furnaceās fragmented natural laws!
The moment all the fragmented natural laws inside the furnace disappeared, a huge black hole formed. In an instant, the hundreds of thousands of green wisps that had gathered in the surroundings all rushed toward Wang Baole.
10,000, 20,000, 30,000ā¦
A huge number of green wisps pierced the void to appear inside the furnace. They then entered Wang Baoleās body and were wildly absorbed into his intrinsic scabbard, which in turn released great amounts of nourishing power that caused the might of Wang Baoleās fleshly body to rapidly rise.
Rumbling sounds instantly reverberated in all directions. By the time the power of the Dao Scripture faded, Wang Baole had already absorbed more than 80,000 green wisps. This caused his fleshly body to finally break through, reachingā¦ the great circle of the Eternal Star Realm!
Ordinarily speaking, a fleshly body in the great circle of the Eternal Star Realm was already something amazing. And Wang Baoleās body was strengthened even further due to the blessing of his many stars, so his breakthrough instantly shook the heavens. His nine Eternal Stars immediately shone with dazzling light, and the remaining Special Stars also glittered brightly.
Many of his Special Stars had been destroyed, reduced to scattered motes of light. But suddenly, the motes of light began gathering together again, as if they were about to reform into stars.
āNow, itās time to fight back!ā Killing intent erupted in Wang Baoleās eyes as he continued absorbing green wisps. Now that heād broken through, his body was filled with endless power. Rising to his feet, he took a step forward!
The starry sky under his foot shattered, and the void distorted as Wang Baole suddenly appeared in front of two cultivators with a single step. Both hands clenched into fists, he instantly punched out!
