Faced with the words of the Never-Ending Clan cultivator, the elder in front of him remained silent, his eyes closed the whole time. But the trembling of his body and the shining of the rainbow light at his abdomen showed that deep down, he was extremely scared.
“I’m definitely going to get your rainbow planet. Resistance is futile!” The Never-Ending Clan cultivator narrowed his eyes. When his gaze swept over the rainbow planet, greed appeared uncontrollably, causing his cultivation to be disturbed as he dispersed a strong Planet realm aura.
The two silhouettes on the sacrificial altar deep underground were both Planet realm cultivators!
One of them was the true Never-Ending Clan army commander of the army camp there. As for the one Wang Baole killed, he was only the vice-commander. The other cultivators in the army camp thought that he had left to handle some stuff, but in reality… he didn’t leave!
Instead, he was at the sacrificial altar deep underground, carrying out something which could be considered a rare opportunity for him. That was… absorbing the rainbow planet of the elder in front of him!
It was impossible to describe just how much the rainbow planet attracted him. After all, to Planet realm cultivators, the planets they fused with when entering the Planet realm could be differentiated by level. Such rainbow planets were of a decently high level, and once he obtained it, it would bring extremely huge benefits to him.
Normally, he wouldn’t get this opportunity, but the invasion presented it to him. So, he would definitely not let it go.
However, this wasn’t easy to do. He needed to spend a large amount of time while also having adequate preparations. So even when Descenders came and caused a huge mess, he still crossed his legs and refined with all his might.
Only his deputy vaguely knew what he was doing. So, even though the late-stage Spirit Immortal Never-Ending Clan elder knew that the Descenders wouldn’t stay there for long, he chose to attack because he was worried that the Descenders might affect the army commander.
Even though that was unlikely, he dared not take any chances, thereby causing the events that happened up to that point.
But at that moment… the disturbances of the battle between Wang Baole and the late-stage Spirit Immortal were too strong, which meant that the real army commander, who was refining the rainbow planet there, could no longer ignore it. The most important thing was… the cries for help from the elder in front of him caused the Never-Ending Clan army commander to feel a sense of danger.
“Old fogey, I’ll make you give up completely!” As he spoke, a cold glimmer appeared in the eyes of the Never-Ending Clan Planet realm army commander as he spread out his Divine Sense. It exploded forth from the underground sacrificial altar like a storm and appeared in the outside world after piercing through the land. In a single moment, it swept across the entire planet.
To a Planet realm cultivator, their Divine Sense was enough to cover the entire planet. Wherever it went, the land quaked as countless plants were bent, and numerous mountain peaks had rubble fall down. Never-Ending Clan cultivators and Descenders alike had their bodies tremble violently as though they had lost control of them. Their minds also seemed to have thunder rumbling in them as their souls became unstable.
The Divine Sense of a Planet realm cultivator was like a storm. As it swept through the entire planet, it locked onto Wang Baole. As it did, a silent rumble exploded forth, and all of the Divine Sense coming from the Planet realm cultivator seemed to turn into floodwater as it converged towards Wang Baole.
At the same time, because the Planet realm cultivator spread out his Divine Sense so quickly, Wang Baole, who had stopped at the previous battlefield, felt a wave of aura as he felt disturbances from the earth. The aura, which he couldn’t struggle against or resist, and which might even be enough to kill him, was heading towards him from all directions like invisible waves.
It was as though heaven and earth were being suppressed, and like signs of his existence were going to be wiped away. Hence, an intense sense of danger exploded forth in his heart.
This scene made Wang Baole extremely shocked. He had no time to think too much. He instinctively unleashed his entire cultivation and prepared to escape with a flick of his body. But under the Divine Sense of a Planet realm expert, it was hard for him to escape despite having reached the False Immortal realm.
Instantly… the Planet realm Divine Sense coming from all directions arrived and suppressed Wang Baole. His whole body shook violently as all of his resistance methods became extremely fragile. As he spat out a mouthful of blood, his body was pinned to the ground. As the earth broke apart, all of the bones in his body let out sounds that signaled that they were unable to withstand the pressure. Under the compression, his entire body became blood red.
His face, eyes, and skin all turned red. In fact, if one looked closely, they would see that drops of blood were being forced out of his body under the compression, making him look like a blood man.
Extreme pain coursed through his entire body like a storm. All of this caused Wang Baole to feel like he was going to be squeezed into mush. Although the body was only his essence body, there was still a strong sense of danger that spread throughout his entire being.
Although it was just his essence body, once it died, it would have a huge impact on his true body as well. So Wang Baole let out a low growl and tried to resist. If his true body were there, he could potentially have activated the power of his true devouring seed and essence scabbard. However, the essence body was just a projection of everything in his body.
Could it be that my essence body is going to die here? Anxious, Wang Baole dispersed his body as he prepared to escape in his mist form. However, there was still no use in using his mist form. Under the suppression, he was forced to gather and form his essence body again.
In fact, half of his body seemed to be about to dissipate and showed signs of being destroyed.
Seeing how Wang Baole was unable to resist for much longer, the earth suddenly trembled. From where the sacrificial altar was, the elder sitting in front of the Never-Ending Clan Planet realm cultivator acted. The elder’s eyes were closed and were unable to be opened, seemingly due to a seal. Despite that, his body trembled, and he unleashed an unknown technique and squeezed out a spurt of power, sending it towards Wang Baole.
Immediately after, the spurt of power became a source of support and defense. It formed a ray of defense and helped Wang Baole resist the suppression coming from the Planet realm army commander’s Divine Sense.
Loud rumbles spread around Wang Baole, and the defense became a weak light shield. This gave Wang Baole, who was struggling to withstand the suppression, some breathing space. As he panted, an anxious and ancient voice sounded in his ear.
“Foreigner, I am the patriarch of this Dao Planet. My clan was executed by the Never-Ending Clan, and the planet in my body is being refined by that Never-Ending Clan heretic cultivator. I can only protect you for a while, and I can’t sustain it for long. Helping me… is akin to helping yourself now!”
“How do I help?” At this moment, Wang Baole didn’t need to deliberate at all. There was only one path in front of him. If he wanted to prevent his essence body from dying, he had to help this man who claimed to be the planet’s patriarch.
“Come to me, step onto the sacrificial altar, and extinguish a sealing lamp!”
Very quickly, viciousness flashed between Wang Baole’s eyes. He didn’t believe the elder. Nonetheless, he still had to take a look at the sacrificial altar. Even if he were to die there, he still wanted to see who wished to kill him!
As for the position of the sacrificial altar, although Wang Baole hadn’t been there before, his previous sensing and the guiding he received now made his mind very clear. So after gritting his teeth, Wang Baole raised his right foot and stepped towards the land. As rumbles sounded, he turned into mist and headed underground, traveling along the cracks in the ground.
He traveled as quickly as he could the entire way. The suppression from the Planet realm cultivator’s Divine Sense had a faint sense of anxiousness and frenzy and increased in power, but at the same time, the protective force coming from the other person was transferred towards Wang Baole at that moment, resisting the suppressive force.
Although the resistance couldn’t form an absolute defense, Wang Baole himself wasn’t a weakling and could resist the suppression to a certain extent. At most, when receiving heavy damage, he would spit out a mouthful of essence gas. But under his astonishing speed, the mist he turned into quickly permeated underground and finally arrived at… the underground cave deep within the planet!
As rumbles sounded and Wang Baole’s silhouette formed, he saw the magma in his surroundings and felt the extremely high temperature of the area. He also saw… the tower-shaped sacrificial altar in the center of the magma!
And… the two people meditating cross-legged atop the sacrificial altar!
An elder had his dantian ripped open and was surrounded by a rainbow.
A middle-aged man had a savage expression. Behind him, the Never-Ending Clan’s essence disappeared and reappeared again!
As Wang Baole saw them, their respective identities were already very clear to him. He also saw the ancient bronze lamps exuding an ethereal glimmer placed on each of the sacrificial altar’s three corners!
