Looking coldly at Chen Hui escaping after transforming into a bloody figure, Wang Baole squinted his eyes. In reality, he had been having a sense that someone was following him in secret. However, no matter how hard he tried to use his mosquitoes to find out, he couldn’t locate the other party’s location.
That made him recall the young girl in the white top that he met at the place he found the small tripod cauldron. The girl was also proficient at hiding, such that Wang Baole didn’t notice her at all before he entered the crack.
After analyzing it that way, Wang Baole was confident that the one following him was the same girl. Her tactics were bizarre, especially in terms of her Numinous Treasures, which were frightening. If he allowed her to follow him closely, it was like hanging a sword above his head and keeping a thorn in his throat.
Therefore, Wang Baole had intentionally tried to lure her out. However, several days had passed, and regardless of how hard Wang Baole tried to tempt her, he didn’t see the girl. Until now, the number of injuries he had increased, and he was so close to the breaking point. Furthermore, meeting someone from the Senate made Wang Baole tempted to try again.
He leveraged on the group attack by members of the Senate to weaken himself and continue sustaining his injuries in a way such that he was on the brink of breaking down. It was so real that it managed to lure the girl out. He had originally planned to kill her with a single attack, but her tactics were unusual and, coupled with the injuries that Wang Baole was carrying, he only managed to cut off one of her arms.
At the same time, it came with a price. The backlash from the seventh-grade Dharmic Armament worsened Wang Baole’s injuries. Thankfully, he managed to suppress them once again. As long as he didn’t use the Dharmic Armaments for a while, he could prevent his injuries from erupting.
That feeling of having a lump in his throat had also disappeared simultaneously. Wang Baole heaved a sigh of relief, and as he turned, he saw Li Xiu not far away and chuckled.
“Brother Li, how have you been? Are you also planning to snatch from others?”
Li Xiu shivered as Wang Baole glanced at him. He had seen Wang Baole’s attack, the bloodied, mangled corpse of Heavenly Sky City Lord’s nephew, and also Wang Baole’s scheming mindset and ferocity with his own eyes. All of that made him thankful for hesitating previously.
Now, he had seen through Wang Baole. The fatty seemed easy-going on the surface but was actually a vicious person who wouldn’t bat an eyelid at killing someone. He was decisive and determined if he put his mind to killing someone, and was an extremely vicious person.
He felt that someone like Wang Baole didn’t belong to the four major Dao Colleges. Instead, he would be a good fit for the Galactic Dusk Sect, carrying a smile on his face while holding a knife behind his back…
Therefore, with Wang Baole smiling and looking at him, Li Xiu tried to control his trembling body. Laughing awkwardly, he hurriedly retrieved a few pills from his storage bag and put them on the ground, before patting his chest and exclaiming loudly.
“Junior Brother Baole, that is a misunderstanding that you have towards me. I, Li Xiu, am not someone like that. I have integrity and value justice. My only goal here… is to send some pills to you, Junior Brother Baole.”
Wang Baole raised his eyebrows as he looked at Li Xiu.
“Give me a reason to believe you.”
Hearing Wang Baole’s words, Li Xiu was on the brink of tears, and his heart trembled uncontrollably. His mind was churning for excuses when he suddenly thought of one and voiced it out.
“Big Brother Baole, you’re still single, right? It’s alright even if you’re not. I have an older sister who is so beautiful it’s astonishing. Regardless of whether it’s her face or her figure, she has one of the best you can find. She’s now working at the Martian Colony and is well known throughout the entire Federation. I have found you extremely affable since I first saw you, and I think that it’s highly possible that you will become my elder brother-in-law!”
What on earth? Wang Baole was confused.
“Elder brother-in-law! I still have some matters to attend to, so I’ll make a move first, elder brother-in-law!” Li Xiu slapped his chest loudly, and as soon as he completed his sentence, he turned around and left hurriedly.
Looking at Li Xiu’s back view, Wang Baole didn’t give chase. He looked incredulous and left after picking up the pills. He suppressed his emotions and felt more relaxed after hearing Li Xiu’s words.
As he continuously explored deeper within the forest on the dark side of the moon, the number of people who were charging at him also decreased. After all, the corpses laying all around had an effect of frightening others, and that allowed Wang Baole to finally take a breather.
The only issue was that as he began searching for a place to begin the Foundation Establishment process, another batch of people, apparently lured by his Spirit Qi source, appeared.
They were the ones that Wang Baole was dreading the most to meet. However, he had no choice but to face them.
“Wang Baole…” Chen Yutong laughed bitterly as he emerged from within the forest. Beside him were several other people from the Dao College, totaling about twelve of them, including Li Yi.
Shi Ling, the natural talent at sensing the fragments were also amongst them, looking incredulously at Wang Baole.
They weren’t aware of who the Spirit Qi source was coming from previously, but now, when they neared, they realized that it was from Wang Baole, and that made all of them laugh bitterly.
Based on the ways of the world, Chen Yutong was very proficient and very clear that they were now at a juncture where misunderstandings could easily happen. He was a close friend of Wang Baole, and it was especially important that he took care not to create any misunderstanding between him and Wang Baole.
Therefore, after he stepped out, he didn’t go too close to Wang Baole. Instead, he opened his storage bag and took out a bottle of pills which he left at the side.
“Baole, I will not say much. It’s not appropriate for others to be around you now. I hereby wish you all the best in Foundation Establishment!” Chen Yutong looked sincerely at Wang Baole, bowing to him with cupped fists.
The others in the crowd also took out their pills in silence.
Seeing the reactions of the people from his Dao College, Wang Baole felt a sense of warmth and was touched, especially by Chen Yutong’s actions. He nodded his head and picked up the pills. He was about to turn and leave when at that moment, a flash was seen across Li Yi’s eyes. She seemed to have some thoughts, but even before she could take any action, Chen Yutong stared angrily at her.
Li Yi stayed silent with her head lowered.
Even though Wang Baole didn’t turn around, he saw everything clearly with the help of the mosquitoes. A look of viciousness flashed across his eyes, but he didn’t say anything. Instead, he took out excess fragments that he obtained during his killings along the way, which were fragments in excess of the twenty he needed. He flailed his hand and tossed most of it to Chen Yutong.
“Senior Brother Chen, there are still some corpses lying around with fragments on them. I don’t have time to pick all of them up, so they are yours to keep. Thank you, and goodbye!” When he finished speaking, Wang Baole turned around and charged into the distance, disappearing within the dense forest.
Soon, after Wang Baole had left the people from the four Dao Colleges behind, he continued advancing within the depths of the Mystic Luna Realm. As time passed, his injuries worsened and were about to relapse, and even though he could use his pills to treat them, it was only temporary respite unless he found a place to go into seclusion. If his injuries were to relapse, it would be a terrible situation.
Therefore, after bearing with it for another earth day, Wang Baole spread his mosquitoes out. After making sure that no one was after him, he found an area on a small hill and dug a cave in a secluded spot, before wriggling in and sealing the cave shut.
He then scattered the mosquitoes outside, before finally heaving a sigh of relief. He hurriedly took out the small tripod cauldron. His eyes burned with passion and agitation as he looked at it.
The small tripod cauldron was ancient, with signs of aging visible on it. There were also some indecipherable words and pictures of ferocious beasts densely covering it, making the entire cauldron seem very impressive.
I’ll use this object for Foundation Establishment! Wang Baole took a deep breath. He first swallowed some pills and digested them quickly, to suppress his injuries yet again. He then sealed his hands, releasing his Spirit energy to encompass the cauldron according to the way of Foundation Establishment, as he began the first step of Foundation Establishment—Spirit Integration!
At the same time, as Wang Baole began the Foundation Establishment process, Chen Hui from the Galactic Dusk Sect who was thousands of miles away from him was charging forward with her face pale and aghast. She had lost an arm and was extremely beaten. The only thing that remained the same was the hatred and mania in her eyes.
If the hatred were to be transformed into a Sea of Fire, then the heavens and earth would be burned to the bone right at that moment.
Wang Baole! Chen Hui gritted her teeth, her heart filled with bitterness. She was charging forward as she searched for a place to rehabilitate when suddenly, a kind voice rang beside her ears.
“Hui-er, who has hurt you to this state?”
The moment she heard the voice, Chen Hui was shocked. When she turned around, she realized that an old lady had appeared without her knowing. The old lady’s face was covered with wrinkles, and she was standing there, holding a crutch as she smiled at her.
“Master!”
Chen Hui felt incredulous. She knew well that her master was one of the Grand Supreme Elders of the Galactic Dusk Sect whose cultivation was that of Core Formation level. People of Core Formation cultivation weren’t allowed to enter the Mystic Luna Realm, and that was especially so as the place had been sealed. Her first thought was that the seal had been broken, but when she raised her head to check, she realized that the firmament wood grains were still intact.
“There are some things that we didn’t tell you, the disciples, previously, for fear that you would not be able to keep the secrets well…” The old lady seemed to have sensed Chen Hui’s confusion as she smiled and spoke warmly while caressing Chen Hui’s head.
“This time, the Galactic Dusk Sect is supporting a special Fellow Daoist. With his help, we managed to enter by cheating the array formation. This is the case for the Five Generation Sky Clan as well. The only difference is that they are supporting another creature!
“As for this seal… It’s created by both our clans.
“I have gained a rough understanding of the perfect Foundation Establishment object that you have lost. Wait for me here, I’ll get it back for you.”
Looking coldly at Chen Hui escaping after transforming into a bloody figure, Wang Baole squinted his eyes. In reality, he had been having a sense that someone was following him in secret. However, no matter how hard he tried to use his mosquitoes to find out, he couldn’t locate the other party’s location.
