Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
A thunderous boom reverberated in the air, and an enormous vortex spun furiously around Wang Baole. His hair danced in the wind as waves of cultivation surged from him ceaselessly and flooded his surroundings like the waves of a wild stormy sea!
The unleashing of his cultivation was like the sudden arrival of a tsunami. It sent the cosmos around him shuddering, transforming Wang Baole into the focus of everyone on the battlefield’s attention!
And this… was merely 70% of his full power!
Regardless, the sight of him slaughtering a perfected stage Spirit Immortal realm cultivator had been awe-inspiring. The ordinary cultivators on both sides of the battlefield had been stunned. Even Fairy Ling You had been taken aback. The commander of the Black Armor Legion, who had once saved Wang Baole’s life, was also surprised, and there was a faint look of confusion in his eyes.
They had all been shocked by the aura and cultivation that he had displayed when he first arrived on the battlefield. The current shock that they were experiencing was worlds apart from what they had felt earlier. He had killed a perfected stage Spirit Immortal who had burned his cultivation despite being at the late-stage Spirit Immortal realm. The difference in power had been too staggering!
“Long Nanzi…”
“What kind of golden ticket did he stumble across while he was missing?”
“Is this the rise of another powerful Planet realm cultivator in the Divine Eye civilization?” Respect and fear colored the eyes of the Spirit Immortal realm cultivators in the Divine Sovereign Justice Sect as they stared at Wang Baole.
They weren’t the only ones looking at Wang Baole. The Sovereign Patriarch of the Divine Sovereign Justice Sect and Daoist Gu Mo had both widened their eyes. Despite the intense battle that was going on, one thought still flashed across the Sovereign Patriarch’s mind as he glanced at Fairy Ling You. The more he thought about it, the more he found the two of them to be a great match.
As for Daoist Gu Mo, a myriad of emotions was flashing across his face. Resignation flickered in his eyes. He was prepared for their defeat, but if the Divine Sovereign Justice Sect were to emerge victorious, he knew… that the honor of commanding the most powerful legion in the sect would no longer belong to him.
He didn’t want to give it up at all, but his doubts were stronger than the sense of unwillingness he felt. He knew that with the Violet Gold civilization’s invasion, Wang Baole’s rise to power was a welcome sight to countless people. It was something that many supported. In fact, based on his understanding of the Sovereign Patriarch’s character, he knew that if they were to emerge victorious from this battle, the Sovereign Patriarch was going to treat Wang Baole with unprecedented warmth!
These thoughts flashed across Daoist Gu Mo’s head, while… shock overwhelmed his opponents. The two perfected stage Spirit Immortal realm cultivators knew how powerful Qing Kunzi was. Their intimate knowledge of Qing Kunzi’s strength was the cause of the loud buzzing in their heads. Everything that had just happened seemed like something out of an incredible and unbelievable dream.
Wang Baole had fought effortlessly and overpowered Qing Kunzi easily throughout the entire battle, up to the point where the latter’s flesh and spirit had been destroyed. The entire battle had been beyond their wildest dreams. They hadn’t expected something like that.
They had thought that Qing Kunzi would gain an easy victory. The Heavenly Spirit Sect members had looked on with anticipation and excitement at the start of the battle, while the Divine Sovereign Justice Sect members had been filled with anxiety and dread.
After all, Qing Kunzi had been at the perfected stage of the Spirit Immortal realm. He had stood at the pinnacle of the Spirit Immortal realm with his level of cultivation, power, and strength. He might not have been a match for a cultivator at the Planet realm, but the leap from the Spirit Immortal realm to the Planet realm was one across a great realm. In fact, Qing Kunzi had reached the peak of the great realm before the Planet realm.
Besides, he had burned his own cultivation, exhausting his cultivation in order to unleash more power. That might not have allowed him to reach the level of a Planet realm cultivator, but it definitely allowed him to surpass ordinary perfected stage Spirit Immortal realm cultivators. He would have been at the peak of his power.
In such a state, it shouldn’t have been difficult at all to kill a late-stage Spirit Immortal realm cultivator. But… he had failed. In fact, he had been overwhelmed to the point where he couldn’t fight back and was slaughtered!
