247 Fellow Daoist, Please Stay! (1/2)

Wang Baole grabbed a handful of his hair tightly, and a look of stubbornness and determination was apparent in his eyes. The more he failed at developing and researching the bead capable of storing the Mystic Trace Fog, the more indignant he felt.

He knew well that the bead would likely lose its function when he left the moon. However, it was his trump card within the Mystic Luna Realm. It was something that could allow him to move freely inside the realm.

If he met with a ferocious beast that was an inhabitant of the Mystic Luna Realm, he could use it on himself to escape; if he met with cultivators from other factions, he could use it on them and send them away.

A function like that set the value of the bead highly in Wang Baole's heart.

If there were no progress from the start, it wouldn't have bothered him. However, in the many teleportations, Wang Baole had made many improvements to the inscriptions as well as other adjustments on the bead such the bead could already absorb the fog into it. The only challenge was in storing the fog.

The bead could absorb the fog, but as soon as Wang Baole was being transported away, the fog within the bead would dissipate on its own, and that wasn't what Wang Baole had envisioned.

I will definitely succeed in my research! Wang Baole was determined. He looked around him before charging towards a particular direction, activating his devouring seed to search for the fragments while adjusting the bead's inscriptions. At the same time, he was also looking for the Mystic Trace Fog.

After researching the Mystic Trace Fog for the past month, Wang Baole gained an understanding and grasp of the Mystic Trace Fog. Typically, the Mystic Trace Fog was more likely to appear on lower ground.

Therefore, in the process of searching for the fragments, Wang Baole also neared areas of lower ground. He wanted to wait for the appearance of the Mystic Trace Fog so that he could test whether his creation would succeed.

Two days passed just like that. In those two days, Wang Baole had completed his improvements to the bead and made several different versions of it. As he was confidently searching for the Mystic Trace Fog, he was suddenly taken aback one evening as he was charging towards a low lying area. He hurriedly looked into the distance, to an area on his right side.

Even though he couldn't see any changes with his naked eye, he could feel that in a location on the right, there was a shocking flow of Spirit Qi rising towards the skies. It was as if a huge torch had appeared in the middle of the night, and could be sensed by anyone who was within the region.

Wang Baole had experienced such movements of the Spirit Qi previously. He was clear that the movement wasn't because there were fragments present in the area; rather, someone with fragments was in that area!

The only issue was that in the past, the movement of Spirit Qi that Wang Baole had experienced was only thirty to forty percent of what he experienced then. Such a significant movement of Spirit Qi like the one he was feeling was something new!

D*rn it! How many fragments are there? Even if there aren't twenty, it would be close! Wang Baole took a deep breath. He felt incredulous and shocked after comparing what he experienced with the Spirit Qi that he was giving off.

He initially thought that he was very efficient, having made use of his devouring seed in the Mystic Luna Realm. Despite that, he had only found ten fragments suitable for Foundation Establishment. On the other hand, it seemed like someone in the area on the right was already extremely close to reaching Foundation Establishment stage.

That made Wang Baole somewhat troubled, as he instinctively grew vigilant. He was clear that something was amiss, as it was unusual. Therefore, he ditched his original idea to snatch and was about to leave when his eyes narrowed.

At that moment, in the direction where the astonishingly strong Spirit Qi was spreading from, the concentrated Spirit Qi source seemed to have sensed the Spirit Qi movement coming from Wang Baole. It changed its direction and was charging towards him!

A cold chill immediately flashed across Wang Baole's eyes when he realized that, and he decided not to leave. Instead, he stood there, looking at the Spirit Qi source arrogantly.

Is this an attempt to rob me? That's fine by me as well. If I eliminate him, I will have enough fragments myself! Wang Baole inhaled deeply, exercising his cultivation while warming up his body. He maintained his physical force at the highest level and ready to be unleashed, making the necessary preparations to attack later on.

It is not that I, Wang Baole, want to rob him. I am only protecting myself! Wang Baole sneered arrogantly, raising his head as he looked into the distance.

Soon, Wang Baole had made all the preparations. Dust was swept up in the area a distance away, and a crowd appeared before his eyes. Looking at them, it was as if Wang Baole had been struck by lightning as he was filled with shock and held his breath.
