š Chapter 1316 - Joy Intent
The fact that he took the initiative to say these words showed that the young man really was quick-witted. He knew that anyone who could capture two songweavers alive and even escape safely from Emperor Spirits definitely wasnāt someone he could dare to plot against.
For the person in front of him, his life and death could be decided with a thought. Any random change could displease this mighty expert, and the young man would be dead without a corpse.
āIt seems that this man wants to enter the World Realm. If he canāt figure out a way to enter, then my neck is on the line. Heāll either devour me or refine me, or maybe possess my body.
āAfter all, thatās what I would do if I were in his position. Moreover, the gap between us makes it impossible to resist. Even if I blew myself up, he probably wouldnāt bat an eye.
āSince thatās the case, itās better for me to speak out and provide a solution in advance rather than wait for him to make a decision on his own.ā
With these thoughts running through his mind, the young man resolved himself to be as obedient as possible. At the same time, he knew that with the other partyās strength, his life and death were completely insignificant. For powerhouses like this, the most important thing was to solve the problem at hand.
As for the processā¦ that didnāt matter.
Wang Baole glanced at the young man in front of him with a faint smile. With his experience, he could easily tell what the young man was thinking, and a hint of appreciation appeared in his eyes. However, he didnāt speak. Instead, he waved his right hand lightly at the void.
The young man watched dumbfounded as fluctuations appeared on Wang Baoleās body. When he felt these fluctuations, the young manās anxiety dissipated and was replaced with joy, causing his eyes to widen in shock.
Before the young man had even finished speaking earlier, Wang Baole had already used the Dao of Duplication to copy the Dao of Joy. Now, he took a step toward the void, hoping to use this power to enter the second layer of this world, the World Realm.
But just as Wang Baole was lowering his foot and his figure blurred, his expression suddenly shifted. His falling foot halted, and after a while, he lowly pulled it back.
In silence, he lifted his head and looked at the void in the distance with a contemplative gaze.
A moment ago, after copying the Dao of Joy and raising his foot, he had sensed the wall of the second layer. He knew that as long as he lowered his foot, he would pass through the wall and enter what the young man called the World Realm.
The wall was like a door to the World Realm, and there were thirteen keys that could unlock it. These thirteen keys were the thirteen natural laws corresponding to the seven emotions and six desires.
Wang Baole could make some guesses as to how the awakened Ancients managed to enter the second layer as well.
But although he successfully copied the key with his Dao of Duplication, this place was Source Universe Dao Void, and his copy wasnāt completely perfect.
Thus, just as he was about to set his foot down, Wang Baole had suddenly felt danger. He could sense that the moment he took that step, the fluctuations it would cause would be even more shocking than what caused the Emperor Spirits to appear earlier.
It was even possible that a hundred thousand Emperor Spirits would appear all at the same time. After thinking about it earlier, Wang Baole had already determined the cause for the Emperor Spiritsā arrival.
That wasā¦ the Dao of the outside world.
In Source Universe Dao Void, there were most likely only fourteen kinds of natural law. The first thirteen were the seven emotions and six desires, and the last one was what the Ancients cultivated. Although Wang Baole didnāt know exactly what it was, he could hazard a guess that it was something related to bloodline.
For those born in this place, no matter which epoch it was, they would have a bloodline that wouldnāt be restricted even after waking up from hibernation.
Aside from these fourteen natural laws, if any other laws appeared in Source Universe Dao Void, the ones using them would be marked as outsiders, causing the Emperor Spirits to attack.
These Emperor Spirits were both gods and guards.
And according to Wang Baoleās analysis, the number of Emperor Spirits was just one short of a hundred thousand.
Therefore, theoretically speaking, if there was a powerhouse who could ignore a hundred thousand fourth step Emperor Spirits, they could immediately go over to the slumbering Emperor.
Wang Baole didnāt know if someone like Wang Yiyiās father was capable of achieving this, butā¦ at the very least, he himself wasnāt strong enough.
Thus, after a moment of thought, Wang Baole nodded toward the young man who cultivated the Joy Dao.
The young man suppressed the shock in his heart that had arisen due to Wang Baoleās Dao of Joy. After taking a deep breath, he quickly removed a portion of his law of joy and gathered it into a red seed that flew out from his chest.
As the seed flew out, the young man weakened noticeably, but there was no hesitation in his actions. When the Joy Seed arrived in front of Wang Baole, he decisively severed his connection with it.
Wang Baole lifted his hand and held the Joy Seed between his thumb and forefinger. A strange glow flickered in his eyes as his pupils widened, causing the Joy Seed in his vision to expand as well. His pupils widened further, and the Joy See expanded again.
After doing this many times, he finally saw that hidden deep in the core of this Joy Seed wasā¦ a special rune.
This rune looked like a smiling face.
As it reflected in his eyes, Wang Baole seemed to hear endless laughter, as if heaven, earth, and all living beings were crying out with joy. This emotion was so powerful that it sent even Wang Baole into a trance. After a moment, the Joy Seed fused completely into his body, and Wang Baole took a deep breath.
He closed his eyes and fell into thought. Time passed as the young man stewed in anxiety, but soon, Wang Baoleās eyes opened once again. This time, the joy intent emanating from his body was far more powerful than before. Anyone who saw him would have no choice but to laugh with joy.
Because of this, and because of his own current weakened state, the young manās reaction was a bit extreme. He stood there dully and laughed like a fool, seemingly unable to stop himself. His whole body seemed to relax, and even his cultivation base fell still, as if he felt not the slightest bit of vigilance at all.
Seeing this, Wang Baole couldnāt help but feel alarmed.
āSo this is Joy of the Seven Emotions. It seems gentle, but itās actually extremely domineering. If this Dao is cultivated to the pinnacle, it can make all living beings go mad. Wherever it goes, all creation will be lost in joy.ā
As these thoughts ran through his mind, Wang Baole grabbed the giggling young man who was obviously no longer conscious and stepped toward the void. This time, he no longer felt any sense of crisis and smoothly placed his foot down. He and the young man in his hand instantly disappeared into the red mist.
After passing through the wall and emerging on the other sideā¦ a beautiful new world appeared in front of Wang Baole!
