752 Subduing De Kunzi! (1/2)

As the Holy Crest Sect Grand Supreme Elder, he naturally knew some inside secrets. Besides, he was normally submissive towards the Divine Sovereign Justice Sect. He knew that the royalty of the Divine Eye civilization seemed to be at peace with the three greater sects, but actually, the tension between them threatened to escalate into a full-blown conflict.

After all, no royalty would like their authority to be in the hands of the warlords they ruled over, nor would they want to live their lives as though they were under house arrest. The Holy Crest Sect Grand Supreme Elder also understood very clearly that although the royalty was in decline, the depth and strength of their foundations made the three greater sects fear them nonetheless.

And what they feared the most… was the royalty's top-secret art, the one only those with the purest of bloodlines could learn… the Divine Eye Art!

At the same time, he guessed that maybe there were some key details about the conflict between the three greater sects and the royalty that he didn't know.

Regardless, he absolutely didn't want to get embroiled in the conflict between the royalty and three greater sects. Therefore, as he felt the aura emanating from Wang Baole's body, his desire to leave grew even stronger. This was despite him not seeing the real Divine Eye Art, confirming it based on his gut feeling and not double-checking.

But… it was too late.

As he charged out, the silhouette of Wang Baole, who walked out of the pupil of the black demonic eye, disappeared in an instant. When it reappeared, it was already in front of the Holy Crest Sect Grand Supreme Elder's avatar.

Wang Baole's appearance immediately made the Holy Crest Sect Grand Supreme Elder's avatar shudder. While fear appeared in its eyes, the nervousness in its heart was like waves crashing into his soul. It instinctively took a few steps back, forced a smile on its face, and spoke courteously.

”Please don't be mistaken, Elder Long Nanzi, I previously felt that you were about to achieve a breakthrough, so I was worried and came to protect you… Haha, congratulations to Elder Long Nanzi for reaching the Soul Conduit realm!” As he spoke, the Holy Crest Sect Grand Supreme Elder let out forced laughter. But as he laughed, he noticed that Wang Baole, who was standing in front of him, remained silent and was staring at him coldly. So this laughter slowly became awkward, and his forehead sweated uncontrollably.

The Holy Crest Sect Grand Supreme Elder wiped away the sweat instinctively and wanted to say something to break the silence and awkwardness. Without a doubt, he felt a strong sense of danger right now. He had a feeling that if he didn't do something, he would definitely die. With Wang Baole's killing spree and murderous intent, he would probably unleash his fastest speed to catch up with the battleship and kill the Grand Supreme Elder's true body.

”Elder Long Nanzi, I'm still very useful. I didn't see anything previously, I… I absolutely despise the three greater sects, and my loyalty to the royalty can be confirmed by the heavens and earth!”

As Wang Baole listened, a glimmer flashed through his eyes. The Holy Crest Sect Grand Supreme Elder's intuition wasn't wrong. Actually, Wang Baole did indeed have a similar thought. However, if he didn't replace the Holy Crest Sect Grand Supreme Elder after killing him, the death of a Soul Conduit realm cultivator would definitely catch the attention of the Divine Sovereign Justice Sect he belonged to. However, Wang Baole also felt that replacing the Grand Supreme Elder by transforming into him wasn't appropriate.

The more he did such a thing, the easier it was for him to make a mistake. Wang Baole felt that it would be a pity to give up the identity of Long Nanzi, which he had fully grasped and was very familiar with.

Even if there were other solutions, such as transforming into the Grand Supreme Elder and going on a journey or going into seclusion, they were all somewhat extra and unnecessary. But it was worse for him not to kill the Grand Supreme Elder.

So… as Wang Baole weighed the costs and benefits in his heart and as he heard the Grand Supreme Elder mention the royalty, he immediately raised his right hand and grabbed towards the Holy Crest Sect Grand Supreme Elder!

The Holy Crest Sect Grand Supreme Elder was always alert and prepared to retreat at the first moment. However, the difference in strength between them gave the Grand Supreme Elder no chance. No matter how he tried to dodge, it was of no use. His head was instantly held by Wang Baole.

At the same time, in the cosmos not that far away from this civilization, the true body of the Holy Crest Sect Grand Supreme Elder meditating within the Holy Crest Sect's battleship shuddered and opened its eyes. Resisting his unwillingness, he wanted to sever the connection between his avatar and his soul despite the consequences, such as heavy injury to his body. However, his expression completely changed in the next moment.

I can't sever the connection?

It was as though the soul connection between his true body and avatar was forcefully strengthened by a spell. This made him unable to actively sever the connection. As he was in shock, within the mutant civilization's star realm, the glow of the Dark Fire appeared in Wang Baole's eyes.

”You dare to use soul spells in front of the Dark Sect?” Wang Baole spoke softly as the eerie glow in his eyes grew stronger. He directly unleashed the soul searching spell on the Holy Crest Sect Grand Supreme Elder's avatar!
