A World Worth Protecting

“Seal my spirit-killing power?” Wang Baole furrowed his eyebrows slightly. Although he had already predicted this scene, he still felt a tinge of pity when it actually appeared.

But this was within reason. After all, the Divine Justice Shield had already been handed over. With the Green Kraken Legion’s status, it wasn’t impossible for them to obtain it and develop a way to seal it in a short period of time.

However… they only sealed the spirit-killing power form by the stacking method. Wang Baole sneered in his heart. The new version of the Divine Justice Shield he refined using the disassembly parasitism method that Little Wu gave him was unaffected by the sealing. That would be his trump card!

So at that moment, while he had a nasty look on the surface, in reality, he was extremely calm as he raised his head to stare coldly at the rift in the cosmos and the green battleships flying out one after another from within it.

These battleships looked like giant bats. When they flew out rapidly, a large number of cultivators spread out from within them. Their cultivation levels weren’t high, being mostly Core Formations and having less than several dozen Nascent Souls. They had strength in numbers, and they also seemed to be augmented by some kind of unification seal. It made their auras gather into one. There seemed to be around 1000 of them, but the feeling they gave Wang Baole… was as though he was facing ten mighty Soul Conduit figures!

Making use of array formations to achieve a syncing of aura and stacking of combat strength? While Wang Baole’s pupils shrunk slightly, he also noticed that within those battleships, three even stronger auras exploded forth. The three men who looked similar had all reached the peak of the perfected stage of the Soul Conduit realm and were only one step away from reaching the False Immortal realm!

These three people… were obviously the three Grand Supreme Elders of the Earth Cloud Sect. After appearing, the three of them shot towards Wang Baole like three shooting stars, their eyes brimming with excitement and desire.

Wang Baole’s gaze swept across the bodies of the three of them, then passed over the ten Soul Conduit auras that were formed via stacking. But what he was focusing on were two people who had walked out from within the rift in the cosmos at that moment!

Of the two people, one was skinny, while one was plump. The former was expressionless, while the latter had a smile on his face that made him seem harmless. Standing at the edge of the rift, they stared at the Soul Rift Planet. Their gazes seemed to be able to travel great distances and landed on Wang Baole’s body.

“Only two False Immortals?” Wang Baole raised his eyebrows and felt incredulous. So he searched around his surroundings thoroughly once again. After confirming that there were only these two False Immortals and three perfected stage Soul Conduits, he suddenly laughed.

“Does this show that you’re confident in your seals, or is it that you’re underestimating your opponent?” Wang Baole blinked and wanted to confirm his speculation again. But the three perfected stage Soul Conduits had already neared him. One of them even started laughing loudly.

“Long Nanzi, don’t expect the Ice Phoenix Legion to come and save you now. Senior Yi Nianzi has personally gone there to obstruct them. Your Soul Rift Legion is destined to be wiped off the greater sect rankings today!”

As he spoke, the three perfected stage Soul Conduits all laughed loudly as they increased their speed and neared Wang Baole in an instant. It was as though they became three evil dragons as they flew directly towards him. Their extremely strong perfected stage Soul Conduit realm cultivations seemed to be able to compress the surrounding void, causing an infinite amount of pressure to stack onto Wang Baole from all directions. It was as though they wanted to completely suppress Wang Baole!

“Noisy!” Facing the attacks of the three perfected stage Soul Conduits, Wang Baole took his time. After confirming that there were only two False Immortals involved in the battle, a cold gimmer flashed between his eyes. While he humphed, he decided not to detonate his battleships. Instead, he shot out like a shooting star with a flick of his body!

He didn’t dodge or escape. Instead… he charged towards the three perfected stage Soul Conduits head-on. This stunned the three perfected stage Soul Conduits and caused them to feel a tinge of uneasiness in their hearts. But it was too late for them to dodge!

“Is this the warning the Green Kraken Legion wanted to give me… Childish!” The moment Wang Baole’s words echoed, he had already collided with the three perfected stage Soul Conduits!

This scene happened so quickly that everyone in the surroundings had no time to react as shrill cries of pain spread towards the surroundings from where Wang Baole collided with the three Earth Cloud Sect Grand Supreme Elders. The three perfected stage Soul Conduits seemed to collide into an immovable mountain as blood spurted everywhere. They were sent flying back at a faster speed as they screamed, their arms exploding. As their bodies became a bloody mess, they were extremely shocked as though their minds were swept by a violent storm.

“Reflection? Wasn’t his Divine Justice Shield sealed!”

“Impossible!”

While the three of them were heavily injured, Wang Baole’s silhouette flew past them without decelerating. He didn’t even take another look at them. In reality, Wang Baole had already gone easy on them. He already saw them as his personal possessions. Hence, he didn’t let the reflection force reach its maximum. If not, in the previous moment, the three of them wouldn’t just be injured. Instead, they would definitely be dead!

After all, the moment a lesser sect challenged a greater sect and lost, they would immediately become subordinate to the greater sect. That was part of the rules of the Divine Sovereign Justice Sect, and no one dared to go against them. Even the Green Kraken Legion… had no way of preventing that!

Not caring about the three perfected stage Soul Conduits and not bothering himself with the ten or so Soul Conduit auras formed by array formations surrounding him, Wang Baole’s silhouette headed straight for… the two False Immortals outside the rift! As he did so, everyone was in shock and disbelief, including the two False Immortals!

“You dare attack my Soul Rift Planet with just two False Immortals? Do you… have the right to do so!” Wang Baole was traveling too quickly. So as his words were still echoing around, his silhouette had already neared the two False Immortals. He immediately threw a punch towards them!

As the expressions of the two False Immortals changed, a vicious glint flashed between the eyes of the skinny cultivator. He also unleashed his full strength as his attacked. Obviously, he didn’t believe that his opponent’s Divine Justice Shield could still be used under the seal. To him, the scene he saw previously must have been caused by other reasons. No matter what the reason was, so long as it wasn’t the Divine Justice Shield, it wasn’t difficult for him to suppress a late-stage Soul Conduit with his False Immortal cultivation!

As for the fat cultivator beside him, his eyes flashed as he retreated immediately, about to leave the battlefield via the rift behind him. Wang Baole watched as this scene unfolded. He ignored the retreating fat cultivator, instead, colliding with the skinny cultivator after controlling his Divine Justice Shield.

The rumble caused by the collision was heaven-shaking and earth-rumbling, and it spread through the entire battlefield. The shrillness of the somber and skinny False Immortal exceeded the rumble. As it spread through the surroundings, his limbs all exploded, and he was sent flying as his blood spurted everywhere. Wang Baole caught up to him and grabbed his head, throwing him towards the Soul Rift Planet afterward.

Come to daddy!

This scene immediately shocked the three heavily injured perfected stage Soul Conduits. The other surrounding cultivators were also extremely stunned. When they saw Wang Baole, it was as though they had seen a ghost.

Only the fat cultivator dodged a bullet by retreating in time. But his face had already turned white, and fear appeared in his eyes. At that moment, he headed straight towards the rift, on the verge of leaving. But Wang Baole wasn’t about to let him leave. As he was about to give chase with a flick of his body, a Spirit Immortal force suddenly exploded forth from within the rift. A giant arm transmogrified and passed through the fat cultivator’s body, grabbing towards Wang Baole!

Feeling the Spirit Immortal waves from the giant hand, Wang Baole’s eyes flashed, and he suppressed the urge to fight it. Retreating, he raised his head to look towards the cosmos and roared.

“Green Kraken Legion, are you afraid of losing? You send a Spirit Immortal just because you want to gain control of my small army? If so, why bother giving me the right to form an army? How would you gain the support of my fellow Daoists in the sect? How will others be motivated to work hard in the future? Patriarch, I admit that I held back a trick or two concerning the Divine Justice Shield in self-defense, but this is what every artifact refiner would do. However, I, Long Nanzi, don’t accept the Green Kraken Legion’s actions!”

As Wang Baole’s words were spoken, the transmogrified hand stopped for a while. The moment it stopped, an ancient voice echoed in the surroundings.

“The Soul Rift Legion, wins!”

When that was heard, the arm trembled slightly and stopped grabbing towards Wang Baole. Instead, it grabbed the fat cultivator who escaped death and disappeared via the rift in the cosmos.

As it disappeared, the battle ended. As for the three perfected stage Soul Conduits of the Earth Cloud Legion, their bodies trembled as they could no longer hide the despair in their eyes. They understood the consequences of losing the battle. The surrounding Earth Cloud Sect cultivators and the False Immortal that had been thrown by Wang Baole onto the Soul Rift Planet and barely survived, all spit out another mouthful of blood.

Only Wang Baole looked back at the green battleships and the large number of cultivators surrounding him with his eyes shining. He mumbled, “I’m going to be rich!”
