📖 Chapter 1151 - Fierce Battle!

11 Nov, 2023

But as soon as Wang Baole took out the curse leaf and his intrinsic scabbard released its aura, the little girl who had arrived at his side through some mysterious method suddenly disappeared. She seemed to have been scared off, and she reappeared far away a moment later, staring intently at Wang Baole.

Wang Baole also stared at the little girl, his eyes narrowing and flickering with a brutal light.

“Trying to feel me out? Sorry, but I’ll have to disappoint you. This leaf of mine still has quite a few uses left.”

However, as soon as he spoke, the layers of protection formed by his clones suddenly trembled. The remaining enemy cultivators all blew themselves up, causing shocking explosions to ring out again and again.

With this many people self-detonating over and over, even Wang Baole couldn’t remain unaffected, and his great circle Eternal Star Realm fleshly body trembled slightly.

If the little girl didn’t exist, then Wang Baole would have been able to go all out and suppress everyone here. However, with a mysterious enemy lurking around, he had no choice but to be careful. Tightening his defenses, Wang Baole continued absorbing fragmented natural laws as fast as he could, and the final 10% of fragmented natural laws inside the second furnace was soon swallowed up by his intrinsic scabbard. A powerful suction force immediately broke out that caused a large number of green wisps to rush toward him.

But at that moment, killing intent flashed through the little girl’s eyes, and her body disappeared. She seemed to be blending in with the green wisps, using the chance to close in on Wang Baole without him noticing.

In response, Wang Baole just took out the curse leaf, letting it float above its head. When he channeled his strength into it, the leaf immediately began shining with bright light, enveloping everything in the surroundings with a heavy pressure. The little girl who had been trying to blend in with the green wisps was forced to retreat again, glaring at Wang Baole with a hint of madness in her eyes.

At the same time, the intrinsic scabbard in Wang Baole’s body rapidly absorbed the sea of green wisps. Soon, half of it had already turned transparent.

‘Once it’s completely transparent, the sword intent inside will definitely shake heaven and earth!’ Wang Baole scanned the scabbard with his divine sense and came to a general conclusion on its power.

However, after a moment of thought, he didn’t continue absorbing green wisps. Instead, he and all the clones around him suddenly moved and quickly approached a third furnace.

Once in the third furnace, he began absorbing green wisps and fragmented natural laws at the same time. Although his clones were destroyed one after another, as his intrinsic scabbard absorbed green wisps, it released waves of physical power that caused his destroyed clones to reform one after another.

Although he couldn’t quite reach an equilibrium between destruction and reformation, he would still be able to stall for time. By now, Wang Baole’s heart had calmed down, and he knew that the current situation was developing in a positive direction.

The more time went on, the more he absorbed, and the stronger his fleshly body became. At the same time, he was sure that his senior brother Chen Qingzi had noticed something wrong by now, so if he kept stalling for time, he might not even need to figure out a solution on his own. His senior brother might find a method to break him out at any moment.

“In that case… She’s the anxious one here!” Bright light flashed in Wang Baole’s eyes. He admitted that the little girl was extremely bizarre and had mastered some peculiar divine abilities, but that was it. Her true battle prowess was insufficient.

“As long as she can’t kill me in one blow, then no matter what she’s trying to do, she won’t succeed!” Snorting coldly, Wang Baole accelerated his absorption.

A boom rang out, and a large portion of the fragmented natural laws in the third furnace was instantly swallowed into his body. In this short period of time, Wang Baole had already absorbed half the fragmented natural laws in the furnace, and he had also sucked in a huge number of green wisps. With the intrinsic scabbard releasing waves of nourishment, his fleshly body quickly grew more and more powerful.

His fleshly body wasn’t limited to the great circle of the Eternal Star Realm. As time passed, Wang Baole’s body became stronger and stronger, constantly heading toward… the Star Domain Realm!

Right now, the little girl was staring at Wang Baole from a distance away. Sensing Wang Baole’s advancement, she became more and more anxious. Multiple pupils appeared in her eyes again, and she started roaring to herself in varied voices.

“Kill him! Find his greatest fear hidden deep in his heart, transform into it, and kill him!”

“He is this generation’s Underworld Child. Kill him, and bring an end to the Underworld Sect’s future!”

“No, the Underworld Sect bears the mandate of heaven, how can you provoke it like this!?”

“Found it! So this is what he’s afraid of!”

"Kill, kill, kill!"

As the little girl’s emotions fluctuated, the heads of the Never-Ending prince whose body she had occupied roared in pain. Then, the pupils in the little girl’s eyes suddenly converged. After returning to normal, she opened her mouth to reveal pointed fangs dripping with saliva. Turning her head toward Wang Baole, she roared.

Her roar seemed to create invisible ripples that spread out in all directions. Wang Baole’s soul was slightly shaken, but he recovered almost instantly. However, the cultivators attacking his clones suddenly trembled violently and all fell back.

Rather than continue attacking Wang Baole’s clones, they immediately retreated and headed toward the Never-Ending prince whose body had been possessed by the little girl. And then… a bizarre scene appeared!

There were just over thirty cultivators still alive, including the silver dragon woman and the young man with the ancient swords. At that moment, all of them seemed to have lost consciousness as they mindlessly rushed toward the Never-Ending prince’s body. As soon as they touched him, they started to… fuse!

Their bodies fused, their divine souls fused, and even their cultivation bases fused together with the Never-Ending prince. In the span of a few breaths of time, more than thirty cultivators had fused with the Never-Ending prince whose body the little girl had taken control of!

Every time someone fused with him, a lump appeared on his body, and his aura rose significantly. Finally… once the fusion with all the cultivators finished, the Never-Ending prince in front of Wang Baole transformed completely into a monster!

This monster had dozens of arms and legs, and its body was stretched out and elongated. It looked like a giant human centipede!

Dozens of fleshy lumps wriggled and squirmed on its body, eventually turning into the heads of the fused cultivators. These heads all had blank eyes and were roaring in pain. Suddenly, the monster burst into motion, shooting toward Wang Baole at an alarming speed.

It was fast, extremely fast!

The human centipede instantly slammed into the barricade of clones. Some clones shattered to pieces as soon as they were hit, and some were grabbed and stuffed into the monster’s various mouths. The centipede didn’t slow down, but instead became even faster. In the blink of an eye… it appeared right in front of the astonished Wang Baole!

“The centipede?!” Wang Baole instantly raised his right hand and poured more power into the Flame Patriarch’s curse leaf, causing a barrier of light to immediately pop up in front of him.

A boom rang out, and cracks spread all over the light barrier. However, it wasn’t destroyed, causing the human centipede to halt for the first time. Wang Baole almost unleashed his intrinsic scabbard, but gave up on that idea in the end, instead rapidly retreating. He quickly formed hand seals and then pointed at the leaf that was emitting the barrier of light.

“Seal!”

With that, the barrier of light suddenly curved and enveloped the human centipede, sealing it within. However, the centipede roared and thrashed about, and it was obvious that the seal wouldn’t last too long.

“It isn’t the blood-red centipede! She must have used some unknown technique to see my greatest fear, and that’s why she took this form…”

Wang Baole continued retreating. Right now, his heart was exploding with a sense of deadly crisis, and he didn’t have time to think too much. Taking advantage of the seal, he instantly pulled the fourth and fifth furnaces over and started frantically absorbing their fragmented natural laws.

“I have to make my intrinsic scabbard turn completely transparent as quickly as possible!’

Wang Baole felt that just circulating his cultivation base to accelerate the scabbard’s absorption wasn’t enough. Thus, he lifted his right hand and suddenly struck his chest. Rays of light instantly spread out, and rumbling echoed all around. Pushed by both internal and external forces, Wang Baole’s intrinsic scabbard… finally appeared in the outside world!

As soon as the intrinsic scabbard appeared, all the fragmented natural laws went crazy. Without the obstruction of Wang Baole’s fleshly body, the intrinsic scabbard was able to devour them faster than ever. At the same time, green wisps surged over like a tidal wave, full of mountain-toppling, sea-flipping might!

30,000, 80,000, 100,000… 200,000, 300,000… The sea of green wisps seemed to stretch out endlessly into the horizon!
