Chapter 861 - Dao Disciple? (2/2)
They weren’t the only ones who thought that. The Sovereign Patriarch of the Divine Sovereign Justice Sect, as well as the sect lord and left-hand elder of the Heavenly Spirit Sect, suffered the greatest shock. They were reeling with what they had just seen. The left-hand elder, especially, had shouted out instinctively, calling out a legendary title from his memory!
“Dao Disciple?”
“Dao Disciple? That’s impossible! This is just a remote area in our nineteenth domain. Only the Divine Eye civilization is located in this region. How could the legendary Dao Disciple have turned up in such a primitive world?” The sect lord of the Heavenly Spirit Sect gasped when he heard those words. Shock filled his eyes.
He knew that there was no mention of Dao-related titles at the Planet realm level, which meant that Dao Disciple wasn’t a title given to someone who was about to attain the Planet realm. The title was meant for prodigies found in certain powerful factions in the Dao Domain and in powerful family clans in the Never-Ending Clan!
Those prodigies were precious talents that the factions and family clans had carefully groomed and spent countless resources on. They were meant to take over as the head of their faction or family clan in the future. In the Never-Ending Dao Domain, such prodigies were referred to as… Dao Disciples!
That was because they were in a different class when compared to ordinary cultivators. They had the ability to fight enemies of higher cultivation realms, and they had unimaginably rich stores of cultivation. Should their transformative growth be successful, they would take over as the pinnacle of authority and power in their respective faction or family clan. When that happened… they would become a Dao Sage and lead their faction or family clan to greater heights!
And that was why they were called Dao Disciples!
The left-hand elder had just seen Wang Baole take on his attack successfully. He had also sensed that Wang Baole was only at the late-stage Spirit Immortal realm. Despite that, Wang Baole possessed a well of spirit energy so abundant that it had shocked the left-hand elder. Everything had culminated in the title popping into his head.
The Sovereign Patriarch of the Divine Sovereign Justice Sect was equally shocked. His circumstances differed from those of the left-hand elder, though. As a defender against an invasion, he was more concerned with his sect’s survival. He was the first to recover from his bout of shock, and he launched an attack immediately. The sect lord and left-hand elder of the Heavenly Spirit Sect were forced to refocus their attention and full efforts on the fight. The aggressive attack that the Sovereign Patriarch had launched meant that the Heavenly Spirit Sect’s sect lord and elder had no chance of striking at Wang Baole for the moment.
But… their lack of opportunity to attack Wang Baole didn’t apply to Wang Baole. He wasn’t going to allow the left-hand elder to keep him down. His eyes flashed brightly as he looked up and stared at the left-hand elder.
There has to be give and take in everything we do!
Don’t think your daddy can’t do anything to you just because you’re at the Planet realm! An icy light flashed in Wang Baole’s eyes, and he stuck his right hand up into the air. There was a buzzing in his mind as the Planet realm palm resting inside his Eternal Star Fire started shuddering violently. One of the three broken fingers inside the fire splintered off and vanished instantly, reappearing… outside Wang Baole’s body, above his head!
The finger was blood red and surrounded by lightning bolts, and it exuded madness and violence. The sight would turn anyone’s face pale!
Upon its arrival, it turned around suddenly and pointed… at the left-hand elder of the Heavenly Spirit Sect!
The cosmos thundered, and the abyss shuddered as Planet realm power rose to the skies, blanketing the entire cosmos and shocking everyone on the battlefield once again.
That was because… the power held within the finger was true Planet realm power. From the looks of it, it appeared to be slightly more powerful than the handprint that the left-hand elder had unleashed!
“It’s at the Planet realm!”
“Heavens, what kind of golden ticket did Long Nanzi win to get such a breakthrough in cultivation? Has he been concealing his true level of cultivation all this time?”
“He knows how to use the royal clan’s cultivation technique, and he can command the dead souls of the clan. He’s at the late-stage Spirit Immortal realm, but he has the power to kill a perfected Spirit Immortal realm cultivator and is able to hold his ground against a Planet realm attack. And now, he’s summoned a Planet realm broken finger!”
Cultivators on both sides of the battle had lost all composure. They emerged from the series of shocking events dumbfounded. Fairy Ling You and many other cultivators were similarly reeling. Of them all, the Divine Sovereign Justice Sect’s Sovereign Patriarch and the sect lord and left-hand elder of the Heavenly Spirit Sect seemed to have suffered the greatest shock. The left-hand elder, especially. He had an alarmed look on his face. Dread and doom gripped his heart while alarm bells blared loudly in his head.
“Kill him!” Wang Baole’s eyes flashed murderously as his right hand formed a series of hand seals, then pointed at the left-hand elder!
