đź“– Chapter 1152 - Limitless Suction Force!
The fragmented natural laws of three furnaces instantly erupted, charging crazily toward Wang Baole’s body. To be more precise… they were charging toward the intrinsic scabbard that had appeared in front of him!
Nearly 60% of the intrinsic scabbard had turned transparent by now, and its aura was growing more and more terrifying. At the same time, the little-girl-turned-centipede in the curse leaf’s seal began thrashing about more and more violently.
Rumbling sounds rang out continuously as more and more green wisps were attracted over. It wasn’t long before more than 400,000 green wisps gathered in the surroundings.
With the gathering of so many green wisps, the starry sky itself seemed to turn slightly green. This made the centipede in the leaf’s seal grow even more anxious, and roars echoed from its various mouths as it struggled even more. The cracks on the seal rapidly widened, and it was obvious that it would be destroyed soon.
Wang Baole narrowed his eyes. If his intrinsic scabbard failed to reach full transparency before the seal was broken, then he would have to think of other methods to prolong the battle.
No matter what, he had to delay things until his senior brother broke through the little girl’s strange technique and came to save him.
“This great opportunity turned out to be so troublesome!” Wang Baole sighed, but he knew that it wasn’t the time to lament. Thus, he quickly formed hand seals and pointed at his intrinsic scabbard, doing his best to accelerate its suction.
The intrinsic scabbard immediately vibrated, and its rate of absorption increased to its maximum. Rumbling echoed in all directions as the fragmented natural laws inside the furnaces disappeared at a rate visible to the naked eye.
It wasn’t long before the third furnace’s fragmented natural laws were all absorbed by Wang Baole’s intrinsic scabbard. With a boom, a massive black hole appeared inside the third furnace, causing the huge amounts of green wisps in the surroundings to instantly rush over!
As green wisps poured into Wang Baole’s intrinsic scabbard, it suddenly emitted a purple mist that seeped into Wang Baole’s body through all his pores. His whole body trembled as his physical power began rising even higher in the great circle of the Eternal Star Realm!
Although the words “great circle” represented an ultimate perfection, it was really more like a stairway with one hundred steps. Due to the difficulty of advancing through the realm, as long as a person took a single step onto the stairway, they would be considered a cultivator of the great circle. And once they were in the great circle, they could give up climbing the stairway at any moment and advance to the Star Domain Realm once given the opportunity. Whether they had taken one step or a hundred steps, both were the same in terms of ability to break through.
However… in general, most people would walk about a dozen steps before choosing to break through. That was because the number of steps they walked on the stairway in the great circle of the Eternal Star Realm influenced their battle prowess after breaking through to the Star Domain Realm. The further they walked, the stronger they would be once they broke through.
Walking all one hundred steps was exceedingly difficult, and those who managed it were vanishingly rare throughout all of history. But right now, Wang Baole’s fleshly body was being nourished by the Heavenly Dao, granting him a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. In a short period of time, he walked from the first step of the stairway to the tenth, and he didn’t slow down!
A shocking pressure spread out from his body, one that seemed capable of suppressing the entire starry sky. At the same time, terrifying fluctuations rolled off of him, and rumbling sounds echoed in all directions.
The improvement of his fleshly body was only one of the benefits of the green wisps. At the same time, they helped his intrinsic scabbard devour the fragmented natural laws of the remaining furnaces even faster.
In just over ten breaths of time, the fragmented natural laws of the fourth furnace were all swallowed. Another black hole appeared, causing even more green wisps of Heavenly Dao to shoot over.
And as the intrinsic scabbard absorbed the new green wisps, its suction force increased even more, creating a virtuous cycle that caused Wang Baole’s fleshly body to grow stronger and stronger. By now, the leaf seal was on the verge of shattering, but the monster inside was growing more and more anxious.
She had obviously noticed that as time went by, the scabbard that was slowly turning transparent was giving off an indescribable sense of crisis. And the more transparent the scabbard became, the more powerful this sense of crisis grew.
After a short period of time, it had already reached a level that made the little-girl-turned-centipede tremble in fear. However, Wang Baole still felt that it wasn’t enough. Even though the little girl was already shaking, he still absorbed crazily, and his eyes were completely bloodshot!
“Not enough! I need more!!” As Wang Baole roared, the fifth furnace was finally emptied of fragmented natural laws. Hundreds of thousands of green wisps were instantly sucked over and began pouring into his intrinsic scabbard.
By now, Wang Baole’s intrinsic scabbard had turned more than 70% transparent and was rapidly closing in on 80%. Meanwhile, his fleshly body had taken more than thirty steps on the stairway of the great circle of the Eternal Star Realm!
Not many people could achieve this level in terms of cultivation base, and those who could achieve it with their fleshly bodies were even rarer. After all, to some extent, improving the fleshly body was slower and more difficult than improving the cultivation base!
However, Wang Baole didn’t slow down at all. His eyes were completely bloodshot, and he still felt that his intrinsic scabbard wasn’t powerful enough. But as for the little-girl-turned-centipede inside the leaf’s seal… her eyes were opened wide, and even her thrashing had slowed somewhat.
She suddenly had a strange feeling that the seal formed by the curse leaf was… more of a protection than a seal.
But just as the little girl was feeling an internal struggle, the vacuum formed by the emptying of five furnaces seemed to cross a certain limit. Tens of thousands of green wisps poured into the intrinsic scabbard with every passing second, causing its suction force to increase exponentially. Wang Baole swiftly pulled a sixth furnace over, emptying it of fragmented natural laws at a terrifying rate.
Just a moment later, the sixth furnace turned into a black hole as well. The unbelievable suction force caused the number of green wisps to begin decreasing at a rate visible to the naked eye.
100,000 green wisps disappeared into Wang Baole’s intrinsic scabbard in less than a second. Then, 200,000, 300,000… until finally, 600,000 green wisps vanished into the scabbard’s bottomless stomach!
The scabbard’s transparency instantly crossed the 80% checkpoint, then 90%…
And Wang Baole’s fleshly body also advanced from the previous thirty or so steps to more than seventy. A fleshly body of this level was already extremely terrifying, and even some early stage Star Domain Realm Almighties might not be able to deal with it.
To a certain extent, Wang Baole’s current fleshly body could be considered no different from a divine weapon!
At this point, the little girl had long stopped thrashing around. Her breathing hastened, and the dozens of hands on her centipede-like body all rapidly formed hand seals. Rather than try to escape the leaf’s seal, she actually began fortifying herself within it!
Meanwhile, the green wisps of the Never-Ending Heavenly Dao were sucked into Wang Baole seemingly without end. By now, he had absorbed nearly a million green wisps, which was already a majority of all the green wisps in the gray region.
Naturally, this had a significant effect on the Never-Ending Clan. The battleships hiding outside of the gray region all trembled, and their concealment began to fail. As ripples spread throughout the starry sky, the fleet of battleships was revealed to the outside world again.
But that wasn’t all. The moment they came into view, some of the battleships suddenly exploded, causing everyone in the surroundings to gape in shock.
And it wasn’t just a few. Soon, more and more Never-Ending battleships started exploding with each passing second. After a dozen breaths of time passed, as Divine Emperor Mystic Blossom’s expression changed drastically, more than thirty thousand Never-Ending battleships had collapsed without warning!
Everyone was completely and utterly shocked. An uproar instantly broke out.
“What’s going on?!”
“What happened?!”
“Did Divine Emperor Split Moon die?!”
“Chen Qingzi is going to come out!!”
As exclamations rang out all over the place, Divine Emperor Mystic Blossom’s expression darkened. He didn’t sense Split Moon’s death, but it was possible that Chen Qingzi really had done something and was about to come out.
After a moment of hesitation, Mystic Blossom opened his mouth and was about to speak. But at that moment…
The remaining seventy or eighty thousand Never-Ending battleships all trembled at the same time, and cracks appeared on their surfaces.
At the same time, an enormous suction force broke out of the gray region and appeared in the outside world. In an instant, it actually began sucking away the aura of the Heavenly Dao within the battleships!
The suction force, which had only absorbed already-released green wisps until now, suddenly seemed to switch from passive to aggressive!
