270 I Have Returned (2/2)

An intense murderous intent suddenly erupted inside Wang Baole. His eyes narrowed, and within them flashed a cold, terrifying glimmer.

”Galactic Dusk Sect, Five Generation Sky Clan… since I, Wang Baole, am not dead, the grudge I have against you is due for settlement!” His soft, murmuring words were laced with ice. They echoed faintly in the cavern. Wang Baole tried activating the green lotus in his dantian. He wanted to know the degree it had changed him since he had used it to attain the Foundation Establishment realm.

The thought surfaced and seemed to fuse with the green lotus, but as the latter was about to stir, suddenly, the earth rumbled and quaked. An immense, remarkable aura suddenly surged from the depths of the land, terrifying even Wang Baole.

The aura was so potent that its momentary release was enough to shake the heavens and the earth. Every living thing that existed within the Mystic Luna Realm was shaken to the core of their souls. Wang Baole could sense that the owner of the Spirit Qi was deep in slumber and that the sudden burst of spirit energy seemed to signal its awakening.

The Night Immortal King? Wang Baole instinctively withdrew his consciousness, which was in the midst of sinking into the green lotus. As soon as he withdrew it, the immense spirit energy disappeared. All prior signs of its awakening vanished, and the Night Immortal King continued its deep slumber.

Doubts rose within Wang Baole. He was guessing that within the Mystic Luna Realm, the only being that could give off such remarkable spirit energy must be the terrifying ancient giant corpse deep in slumber. He didn't try to test his theory further. However, he could sense that, somehow, the green lotus inside his body and the ancient corpse were related.

Wang Baole fell silent. He was uncertain of what the awakening of the ancient corpse due to him activating the green lotus would bring. He wasn't confident that he could wield and control the corpse successfully if it truly woke up.

The uncertainties made him set the idea of awakening the corpse aside. He lifted his head and looked towards the exit to the cavern. He leaped out and saw, immediately, in the thin mist outside, the silhouettes of Moon Spirits and Night Immortals.

The Moon Spirits and Night Immortals, upon seeing Wang Baole, lowered their heads as if in a bow…

Wang Baole froze at the sight. His eyes flashed. He tried to exert control over the creatures, but after a few attempts, he realized that even though the Moon Spirits and Night Immortals bowed to him, they weren't receptive to his commands.

Wang Baole silently observed the mist around him. He could sense that the mist was different from the Mystic Trace Fog. However, it seemed to share the same essence. There even seemed to be wisps of Mystic Trace Fog appearing within it from time to time.

He withdrew his gaze and lifted his head towards a point in the distance. That must be where he had come from. He could barely suppress the icy glint in his eyes.

He had killed few in his short life. His experience in the Mystic Luna Realm had been a memorable one. The sense of helplessness he had felt, the grievances he had suffered, how he had been forced to the brink of death—all these incited an uncontrollable rage that surged in Wang Baole's mind. A murderous want, eager to be unleashed, boiled within him. If he didn't let it loose, he would go mad.

Based on his assessments, the green lotus was definitely an extremely powerful object. However, regardless of how overwhelming its power was, he was still merely at the Foundation Establishment realm. He needed time to become more powerful. It still wasn't within his means to fight a Core Formation realm cultivator, as the chasm separating cultivation realms grew wider the further one progressed.

Wang Baole didn't lose his reason because of his green lotus Foundation Establishment realm. He pondered, then turned and eyed the mist around him, a glimmer flickering in his eyes.

I've studied the Mystic Trace Beads for quite some time. There are still a few steps I haven't tested. If I succeed… there will be no one in the Mystic Luna Realm who can stop me from taking my revenge! Wang Baole narrowed his eyes and suppressed his vengeful fury. He walked towards the fog and flipped his right hand over, revealing a handful of beads. Then, he continued his research of the Mystic Trace Fog.

A Foundation Establishment realm cultivation didn't only give Wang Baole enhanced fighting abilities, but also augmented his mind. He became more adept in his control and craft of inscriptions and Dharmic Armaments. There was also an abundance of Mystic Trace Fog in this place. In addition, Wang Baole discovered that with the green lotus inside him, he was no longer affected by the Mystic Trace Fog.Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click for visiting.

His research progressed swiftly and extensively. Days later, Wang Baole successfully refined the Mystic Trace Bead and walked out from the restricted zone. Battle thirst erupted from his person, murderous intent rising to the skies!

I've returned!
