Chapter 878 - The Fight for the Mandate! (1/2)
As his soul shook at that moment, the uneasiness that dissipated previously exploded forth more intensely and spread throughout his body. Without hesitation, his body turned into a cloud of mist as he tried to leave the Eternal Star land.
However, it was too late!
Light suddenly exploded forth from the Eternal Star land. It was as though the light from the sun completely covered the land at an unimaginable speed. Following that was an astonishing wave of teleportation disturbance.
The disturbance was extremely overbearing, and the piece of land everyone was on instantly collapsed at its outer boundaries. Countless runes appeared from within it and covered the surroundings, seemingly forming a seal. This caused Wang Baole and others to be obstructed when they tried to leave.
After noticing the scene, Wang Baole’s expression turned gloomy again.
I was too careless in the end. Was this the thing the Sovereign Patriarch hid from me? Did he betray me, selling me out to the Violet Gold civilization? Wang Baole sighed in his heart. He knew the reason for his carelessness was the same as the reason he was in a passive situation when clashing with the Sovereign Patriarch. It was all because of greed. Once someone became greedy, they would get swayed by considerations of gain and loss, thereby losing the balance in their attitude.
But he felt that the possibility of the Sovereign Patriarch’s hidden thought being the fact that he betrayed him was low. That was because there was no need for him to do so. All he needed to do was join forces with the New Dao Patriarch and cooperate with the Heavenly Spirit Sect’s Planet realms to easily suppress him. There was no need to go through so much trouble!
These thoughts flashed within Wang Baole’s mind, but he understood that now wasn’t the time to ponder and come to conclusions. As a cold glint flashed within his eyes, Wang Baole prepared to charge out by force. However, just as the runes appeared and formed an obstruction, the light of teleportation that surrounded the land reached its highest level. As a series of heaven-shaking rumbles sounded, the light gathered on… three people!
One was He Yunzi, one was Wang Baole, and the last one… was the Heavenly Spirit Sect’s left-hand elder!
The gathering of light formed an indescribable pulling force like it was suppressing Wang Baole. It caused Wang Baole’s entire body to tremble. But he refused to give up and thus turned into mist once again, growling while trying to escape.
However… the Heavenly Spirit Sect and Divine Eye royalty seemed to have already prepared for this. In the trap that they set up, both the obstruction and teleportation anticipated this. So, as the light gathered, even though Wang Baole turned his essence body into mist and unleashed his entire cultivation to try and escape, it was of no use. As Wang Baole’s soul shook and light pierced his eyes, his body was teleported away by force.
He Yunzi and the left-hand elder were also teleported away. As for the rest, they all remained there. As the light of teleportation dissipated, the Eternal Star land seemed to recover. However, the trembling and rumbles coming from underground represented that the land had lost all of its protective power, and it showed signs of collapsing under the high heat from the Eternal Star.
The butler and others were all shocked by this sudden change, and they all retreated rapidly. As for the two princes and other members of the royal family, their breathing quickened as their expressions showed shock and confusion. Obviously, the reason behind the changes that just happened was unknown to even them.
Wang Baole no longer cared about the Eternal Star land that was slowly collapsing and had no time to think about the members of the royal family and cultivators of the two sects. When the light of teleportation was unleashed, he felt his vision blur. In the next moment, his silhouette appeared in a vast void!
The place he appeared would be called a void because there was no sky or land there. It was a chaotic world where countless crazy heatwaves existed. The heatwaves all had different colors, but every one of them contained an astonishingly high heat.
When one looked down, they could even see an astonishing fireball in the vast expanse beneath their feet. The heatwaves and balls of gas were spread from within it.
They went past the laws of the Eternal Star’s outer area and teleported me into the outer area of the Eternal Star? Wang Baole’s soul shook. As he swept around with his gaze, he immediately recognized that… he wasn’t teleported out of the Divine Eye civilization. He was teleported from the land on the outer area of the Eternal Star… into the outer area. Although he was still some distance away from the surface of the Eternal Star, compared to the land he was at previously, he was already extremely close to the surface!
Wang Baole was already clear that he had fallen into a trap and had no time to think too much. As his expression changed, two silhouettes appeared in front and behind him, respectively, and they were He Yunzi and the left-hand elder. Although He Yunzi’s cultivation was the weakest, he had already prepared beforehand, and a protective light spread from his body. It was obvious that this protective light was the reason he could withstand being in this area.
