718 Im Not Going to Repair It Anymore! (1/2)
Daoist You Ran hovered in midair, about to attack. He lifted his head the exact moment Wang Baole's avatar dashed out from the cave. Daoist You Ran stared in the direction of the Divine Armament New City. With his level of cultivation, he could easily sense the familiar presence emerging from underground.
”Wang Baole!” Daoist You Ran narrowed his eyes. He hadn't found any traces of Wang Baole earlier, no matter how hard he had searched. He concluded that there must be something hidden on this planet that he was unaware of.
”So what… it doesn't matter at all!” An icy glint flashed in Daoist You Ran's eyes. The scene of Zi Yue planting vines on Venus with a wave of her hand and bringing to life a hundred thousand Never-Ending Clan puppets surfaced in his mind. It was an indelible image, seared deep into his brain. He concluded that she was at least at the Planet realm. At that thought, he sneered, then turned and headed for the city!
As Daoist You Ran raced towards the city, Wang Baole's avatar appeared in midair above the city. However, because his level of cultivation wasn't high enough, he was unable to let his Dark Sampan, his Dark Robe, and his Lantern Oar materialize. In addition, his avatar appeared translucent.
His avatar's battle capabilities weren't on par with those of his true form, which was why Wang Baole wasn't in favor of engaging in battle now if he could help it. He had no choice though. As soon as his avatar appeared above the city, he immediately sensed an overpowering presence rushing towards him from the main Martian City. An icy glint flashed in Wang Baole's eyes.
He didn't hesitate and lifted the enormous black bow in his left hand while his right hand pulled the bowstring back, transforming the shape of the bow into the shape of a full moon. He pointed the bow towards the presence charging at him, then released the bowstring abruptly.
The air around him trembled and splintered in multiple spots. A dazzling light gathered around the bow and, with the release of the bowstring, shot forward. It transformed into a spear that sped into the distance, its blade so sharp it seemed capable of ripping through everything in its path!
The power exuding from the spear was incredible, stirring both the heavens and the earth. It was as if anything that stood in its path would be destroyed instantly, without any fighting chance!
All cultivators in the Divine Armament New City were dumbstruck. However, this wasn't the end of the avatar's preemptive attack!
His eyes flashed as he pulled the bowstring again and released eleven shots at one go!
Explosions like thunder erupted without pause, and cracks began to appear in the space around him. His surrounding sky appeared on the verge of complete collapse. The black bow's power was so great that the heavens themselves couldn't withstand it!
That wasn't far from the truth. The black bow was a ninth-grade Dharmic Artifact. Even though it was damaged when Wang Baole had found it, its power had been restored almost completely after he had repaired it. Wang Baole had added some stellar source as well as Supreme Fire Ore during the repairs. He had also involved his Dark Artifact during the restoration process. The result had been a rebuilding of the original artifact that had made it even more powerful than before!
The black bow's power was enhanced to its full potential. In fact, it might have surpassed its original potential… in addition, Wang Baole wasn't using it in the conventional way. He was sacrificing long-term functionality, gaining maximum destruction from the bow without considering the damage done to the artifact. The destructive power the bow unleashed was beyond what it should have been capable of. Eleven shots… was its limit!
As soon as the eleventh spear shot out from the bow, the artifact turned to dust in Wang Baole's hand.
Eleven arcs of rainbow sped forward like lightning bolts, merging into a dazzling sea of lights. Seemingly locked on to a single target, they surged forward, tearing through the air. They were thundering and filled with violence and power as they continued to race through the heavens and head for… their target, who was similarly racing at extreme, unbelievable speeds and rapidly approaching the city—Daoist You Ran!
The eleven spears made of blinding light appeared before Daoist You Ran instantly. The latter narrowed his eyes, raised his right hand, and flung it forward. A sealed rune appeared before him, growing in size until it spanned a thousand feet long. The seal rushed forward and collided with the eleven spears.
A deafening eruption immediately exploded in the region. The spears' attack seemed to have been stopped. However, waves of black smoke soon began to exude from the spears. They ate away at the seal, intent on consuming the seal and escaping.
Daoist You Ran frowned slightly. He could sense something hidden beneath the power of these eleven spears. It was an aura that struck terror into his heart instinctively.
He couldn't pin down the exact nature of this aura, there was no time for him to do anything like that. He teleported instantly, stepped out of the spears' attack range, and headed for Wang Baole!
