257 A Battle for the Tripod Cauldron! (1/2)
In an instant, the figurine shuddered violently and, before being drowned by the red sea, erupted and exploded. It strengthened the power of the surrounding winds multiple folds and was on the verge of drawing the small tripod cauldron away.
It didn't succeed, however. The crimson sea seemed to possess a strange power that dispelled all spells. Despite the figurine's self-combustion spurring stronger winds, it seemed to have made little difference.
Chen Hui could only watch on, unwillingly and helplessly, as the tornado was dispelled, and the small tripod cauldron hovering in mid-air was drawn back and under the red sea.Find authorized novels in Webnovel,faster updates, better experience,Please clickfor visiting.
She knew she had no chance of snatching away the small tripod cauldron that could be used for one's Foundation Establishment core. A stranger may not know what the red sea was, but she had vaguely read about it in their sect library. She knew how terrifying it truly was. She bit her lip and decided to give up and leave.
It was when she had abandoned all hope, and the small tripod cauldron was about to be swept under the crimson sea, that Wang Baole finally struck. A strange bright light shone in his eyes. The devouring seed inside him erupted with an unprecedented force and intensity, forming an extraordinary suction force that he focused in his hands. He held them towards the small tripod cauldron bobbing in the sea of red light and, across an expanse of emptiness separating them, grabbed at it!
Come to daddy!
In the sea of red light, the small tripod cauldron instantly shuddered. It was as if an enormous pair of invisible hands had suddenly grabbed at it. Chen Hui watched, stunned, as the small tripod cauldron flew out and raced straight towards Wang Baole. Wang Baole snatched it out of the air with a gleeful look. As he used the devouring seed to suppress the Spirit Qi, he dashed upwards towards the fissure's entrance!
Chen Hui's eyes widened as she stared at Wang Baole's figure, identical to the earlier puppet. White noise erupted in her head. She came to a sudden realization and let loose a terrifying scream. She dashed out immediately and pursued Wang Baole.
A murderous aura erupted from her person as she chased relentlessly after Wang Baole. Her eyes shone brightly with violence and madness. Arrogant and prideful, she never would have thought in her wildest dreams that the fatty would trick her!
He had clearly set up a trap and hidden after summoning his replica. She had stalked a replica for so long, like a fool, even wasting a precious figurine. The damn asshole must have been so pleased with himself, following behind her, stealing the small tripod cauldron from her at the most critical moment!
The insult to her intellect and the loss of a precious opportunity was something Chen Hui, hailing from the Galactic Dusk Sect, could not swallow. Murderous intent gathered around her. At that instant, a sea of blood seemed to rise behind her.
Such a strong killing intent! Wang Baole was shocked. Before dashing out from the fissure, he sent a Supernova punch below him.
The fissure quaked amidst the deafening explosion, and a whirlpool erupted into being. The force of the Supernova surged towards Chen Hui, and a cold glint flashed across Wang Baole's eyes. His past near-death experiences had taught him that Chen Hui was intent on killing him. He wouldn't bother to be gentlemanly with her then. After striking with the Supernova, he pulled out a handful of self-exploding beads and threw them out!
A loud rumbling traveled through the air. The earth trembled and parts of the opening started collapsing. Upon seeing Chen Hui on the verge of being buried in, Wang Baole dashed out from the opening without hesitation and sped off into the distance at full speed!
He wasted no time lingering. After snatching the small tripod cauldron, the latter's Spirit Qi, upon coming into contact with his own, had erupted anew. Its reemergence was an earth-shattering force that rose to the sky.
The devouring seed tried suppressing the Spirit Qi, but the results were dismal. He was like a gigantic fiery hurricane in a pitch-black night, clearly visible regardless of how far away one was. It was more startling, more glaring, and more intense than it had been in the fissure!
The intense Spirit Qi was like strong waves surging and hitting against Wang Baole's spirit. An instinctive, overwhelming longing overcame him. He longed to meld with the cauldron and attain the Foundation Establishment realm!
At such a time, lingering even for a moment was dangerous. If the young woman caught up with him and Wang Baole was caught in a fight, any delay, even if Wang Baole was forced to use his Dharmic Armament and kill her, would be a waste of precious time. If Wang Baole was to be wounded, he didn't know if he would be able to guard against the small tripod cauldron being snatched by others before reaching the Foundation Establishment realm.
He knew clearly that the moment he snatched over the small tripod cauldron, he had become a brightly burning torch that would drive any powerful person in the Mystic Luna Realm mad with hunger for it!
