710 Refining Venus! (1/2)
”Wang Baole, we've activated the Anti-Spirit Bombs on Venus. They are ready for deployment anytime. Find a way to get Daoist You Ran to unleash his Death Dao Battleship's power. That should hold his full attention and prevent him from focusing on overpowering the planet's self-destruction!” As Wang Baole stared at Daoist You Ran, Li Xingwen's frantic voice traveled into his ear via the Solar System Array Formation.
Wang Baole narrowed his eyes, and his right hand lifted skyward, pointing at Daoist You Ran. The Night Immortal King's eyes went ablaze with a crimson glow. He roared and charged forward, heading straight for Daoist You Ran. The chains shackling him jerked tight, the moon barely holding him back.
An array of lights flared on the moon, and its Dharmic Artifacts became fully activated. They didn't start attacking in all directions like they had earlier but shifted and targeted a single spot instead. A hundred thousand red lights locked onto a single target, then blasted at Daoist You Ran.
A flicker of light flashed across Daoist You Ran's eyes as his hands came together in a flurry of hand seals. Two beams of light, black and white, surged from his palms, rushed forward, and merged into a gray light before him, blocking the stream of red as well as the Night Immortal King's fist.
Booms thundered across the cosmos. Wang Baole summoned an avatar, sent it out, and blew it up!
The expression on Daoist You Ran's face shifted immediately. He flew back amidst the deafening explosion. He was a single man fighting a hard battle against the combined forces of the lunar stronghold, the Night Immortal King, as well as Wang Baole's self-exploding avatars.
He seemed reluctant to bring the Death Dao Battleship into the fight. As he retreated, his six arms came together to form a series of hand seals. An enormous flower with pale-white petals and a black center materialized next to him. It grew to full bloom, then scattered its petals into the cosmos. The snow-white petals enveloped the Night Immortal King.
The Night Immortal King roared, his arms thrashing violently in the air. His armor separated from his body into multiple separate pieces that spread all around him. Wang Baole leaped and sent his Divine Armament downward in a decisive slash. The moon shuddered. The cultivators on the satellite gave everything they had in them. Even the stellar source housed inside the lunar stronghold churned fiercely. The red stream then transformed into a gigantic red hand that charged past the petals and made a grab for Daoist You Ran.
Waves of energy rippled through the cosmos again. The Night Immortal King shook, and blood seeped from Wang Baole's lips. Their combined forces destroyed the petals. They then pulled their efforts together and made another charge at Daoist You Ran.
A flash of grim determination flickered in Daoist You Ran's eyes as danger loomed over his head. He raised his right arm and pointed at the Death Dao Battleship. His hoarse, raspy voice echoed across the cosmos as he spoke!
”Seal!”
All three disks on the Never-Ending Clan Death Dao Battleship unleashed a blue light as soon as the command was issued. A sea of light appeared, cold and chilly, rushing outwards and freezing everything in its wake!
The blue sea of light flooded the battlefield within the blink of an eye. At the sight, a faint ghostly light flickered in Wang Baole's eyes. He seemed thoughtful and anxious at the same time. Without hesitation, he retreated, unleashing his full speed in order to escape. It was too late. The moon, the Night Immortal King, and Wang Baole were flooded by the sea of light instantly, then rapidly encased in ice!
The sight sent both Dao Palace and Federation cultivators reeling back in shock. It wasn't the first time they had seen the power of the Death Dao Battleship. Mercury's self-destruction had failed to achieve its purpose precisely because the Death Dao Battleship had unleashed a similar attack when the Anti-Spirit Bombs had gone off. It had frozen the entire planet and overpowered the Anti-Spirit Bombs, causing the mission to blow up Mercury to be a complete failure!
This same attack had made a second appearance, but its target hadn't been a planet this time. Instead, it had been the invincible looking lunar stronghold and the Night Immortal King… as well as Wang Baole!
Zhao Yameng's face turned pale instantly as she swayed on her feet. Kong Dao shook as battle lust and violence erupted from his person with increased intensity. As for Wang Baole's other friends, they were all filled with shock and worry.
Li Xingwen and Duan Muque clenched their jaws. They had been waiting for this moment for a long time. Li Xingwen activated the Solar System Array Formation to teleport the Federation cultivators away while Duan Muque immediately triggered Venus' self-destruct mechanism!
They weren't being reckless or bold. They worried that this was a trap planted by the enemy. However… if they missed this opportunity, the fate of Venus might end up like Mercury's. That was why… they had decided to bet on it, despite the fact that it might be a trap!
Unfortunately… they lost the bet!
Just as Venus' self-destruct mechanism was triggered and the Anti-Spirit Bombs buried deep inside the planet were about to blow up, Daoist You Ran laughed. He raised his right hand, then clenched it into a tight fist!
