776 The Royal Prince! (1/2)
He felt that this meteorite, which looked like a head, seemed to look like someone…
Xie Haiyang! Wang Baole thought for a moment, and his eyes narrowed suddenly. The image of Xie Haiyang appeared in his mind. Comparing it with the meteorite, his heartbeat quickened.
They indeed looked similar. But perhaps due to the meteorite's color, it looked older. If it really turned into a head and face, it would look more like an elderly Xie Haiyang or an elder in his family.
But even an elder from his family wouldn't have such an uncanny resemblance to the meteorite. So Wang Baole was unable to judge at this moment whether it was the former, the latter, or merely a coincidence.
As Wang Baole was thinking, Zhuo Yixian was naturally unclear about his thoughts. However, he could see the shock of his master. So although he had no clue what was going on, he made some guesses as to why Wang Baole was so shocked based on the model of the meteorite.
”Interesting.” Wang Baole suddenly laughed. He squinted as he pointed at Zhuo Yixian with his right hand. Immediately, a ray of red light spread from his finger. As it became a cage and imprisoned Zhuo Yixian, it also sealed Wang Baole's battleship.
”You wait here. I'll go take a look,” Wang Baole said coldly. Although bringing Zhuo Yixian would make him more familiar with the cave, Wang Baole had some understanding of the place through his conversations with Zhuo Yixian. Also, he would have to unleash his full power to defend himself once he entered. If Zhuo Yixian was beside him, he would see things he wasn't supposed to see.
So imprisoning him there was the best choice.
Zhuo Yixian dared not struggle against Wang Baole's imprisonment and hurriedly accepted his orders. However, he still found it regretful secretly. In truth, he really wanted to enter the cave again. Deep in his heart, he still had a little hope that he could return to the Federation from there.
Ignoring Zhuo Yixian, Wang Baole left the battleship with a flick of his body. When he appeared, he was already on the head-like meteorite. His silhouette didn't stop and rapidly circumnavigated the meteor. After getting a vague idea of the meteorite and estimating its size, Wang Baole headed straight for the open mouth of the head!
That was also the meteorite's only entrance. It looked deep, and cold air leaked from within. As he neared, the cold air seemed to come alive. When it came into contact with Wang Baole's body, it seemed to become ice needles, threatening to poke into Wang Baole's body.
But Wang Baole's body was still very strong. Whether it was due to his own training or the effect of the Stellar Nascent Soul, although it wasn't his true body, one could still describe him as having thick and rough skin. That was especially so considering Wang Baole unleashed the Thearch Armor as an additional layer covering his body just in case. Due to that, while the ice needles tried to poke into his body relentlessly as he walked, they had absolutely no effect on him.
Just like that, Wang Baole sped forward while following the path. As he did so, the cold air became increasingly concentrated. But the surrounding walls of the path had no signs of freezing or frost. In fact, a few areas even slowly emitted a blue glow.
While this caught the attention of Wang Baole, it also made him more cautious, and he slowed down a bit. This continued until he reached the middle of the path according to his judgment. Then, Wang Baole suddenly stopped, slanting his head to stare at the wall not far away.
That wall was previously still pitch black. But the moment Wang Baole looked at it, a blob of green light appeared, became a light sphere, and slowly moved within the wall as if it was floating!
As the light sphere moved, the wall seemed to become transparent. The structures and impurities within it became clear to see as though someone was shining a light behind the wall. What was even weirder was, within the moving light sphere, Wang Baole seemed to faintly see the outlines of buildings!
It was as if the sphere of light housed another separate world!
This scene caused Wang Baole to narrow his eyes. He stood there for a long time. It was only after ten breaths, and when the light sphere disappeared, that a glimmer flashed between his eyes.
This meteorite is quite strange, after all… That's odd, could it be that the Divine Sovereign Justice Sect doesn't know about this? Or maybe they do know and have checked this place but just decided not to bother? Wang Baole felt that there were some things that made no sense here. After all, Zhuo Yixian was discovered right here, and this meteorite belt was so close to the Divine Eye civilization. There was no way that they hadn't checked this place thoroughly.
Thinking for a while, Wang Baole was in a hopeless tangle. He continued traveling while pondering. Just like that, as he traveled, he noticed an increasing number of light spheres like the green one he saw previously in the surrounding walls. They all had different colors as well. That was especially so towards the end when he was nearing the end of the path. The light spheres in the surrounding walls were densely packed together and even started to overlap, causing the colors to become more spectacular.
What truly shook Wang Baole's soul was what he saw next. As he entered the end of the path, he saw that there existed a very vast land there. There, the light spheres that were originally on the cave walls actually left the walls and floated in mid-air!
While these light spheres were colorful, they also had various sizes. They clustered together and floated like schools of fish. This caused Wang Baole to enter a momentary trance. It was as though he was immersed in a sea of light!
