A World Worth Protecting Chapter 836 - Who Dares Bully Me?

Chapter 836: Who Dares Bully Me?

But this was merely an illusion!
The illusion was the result of the scorching heat emanating from the Eternal Star Fire inside Wang Baole’s body. It wasn’t possible for Wang Baole to unleash power at the Planet realm at the moment. Even if he were to blow himself up, with his current level of cultivation, he would only be able to injure a Planet realm cultivator. He wouldn’t be able to kill the latter.
This didn’t affect the effect he had on others, though. A Wang Baole who was radiating heat from Eternal Star Fire could still manage to instill some fear into his enemies.
The effect might be better if he were to unleash the Dao Scripture and his Eternal Star Fire concurrently.
Wang Baole assessed the Eternal Star Fire burning inside his body, then sat down happily. He pulled out the Never-Ending Clan Planet realm cultivator’s maimed palm, planning to refine it then and there.
Once I’m done, I’ll be able to possess a little bit of… Planet realm combat strength! Wang Baole narrowed his eyes. This was a serious matter. He was going to use this as his trump card in his coming days in the Divine Eye civilization. It was going to be a potential lifesaver!
Time passed steadily, and another month went by. Wang Baole’s journey was nearing its end. His fleet was slowly approaching the borders of the Divine Eye civilization. After a few more steps, they would enter the Divine Eye civilization.
After a month of tedious refinement, Wang Baole finally successfully refined the palm. He housed it inside the Eternal Star Fire in his body and began nurturing the palm with the fire.
What’s left is to nurture it. The longer it’s nurtured, the more power it will accumulate, right up until it reaches its former peak!
Wang Baole surveyed the Planet realm palm inside his Eternal Star Fire. His spirits soaring, he extended his Divine Sense out for a sweep. He then narrowed his eyes and lifted his right hand in a wave. Except for a few dozen battleships, the rest of his massive ten-thousand-strong fleet clustered together immediately. He stored the latter group away in his storage bag. The remaining battleships had been deliberately left out in the open because of their worn and damaged state. Wang Baole kept them in his active fleet. The entire army looked as if it had survived a difficult expedition and had escaped back to its home planet.
Wang Baole remained dissatisfied with the army’s appearance as his battleships entered the Divine Eye civilization, so he manipulated the Dharmic Battleship’s appearance and made it look shabbier. He also concealed the Dharmic Battleship’s strong presence, weakening it so that it appeared like an ordinary battleship.
That’s more like it. Wang Baole surveyed his results with great satisfaction. Then, he steered the Dharmic Battleship into the Divine Eye civilization. He didn’t return to the Divine Sovereign Justice Sect’s protectorate immediately, heading for the Violet Gold New Dao Sect instead.
“Didn’t the Violet Gold New Dao Sect put out a warrant for me? Well, let’s see which idiot is stupid enough to appear in front of me. I don’t care which Violet Gold New Dao Sect legion I bump into, I’m going to give them a taste of my power!” Wang Baole stuck his chin out arrogantly and drove towards the Violet Gold New Dao Sect. Next to him, Little Wu and the donkey looked on with excitement and anticipation.
Wang Baole didn’t manage to get his wish, though. He couldn’t intrude too deep into the Violet Gold New Dao Sect’s territory. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be provoking the sect’s armies but the sect’s patriarch himself.
He wandered around in the outer regions of the sect’s protectorate and failed to meet any armies. Wang Baole found that slightly disappointing. He decided to leave. It was then that the heavens decided to shower Wang Baole with their blessings. Not long after he had chosen to leave and turned his fleet around, a vast army appeared in the cosmos ahead of his army!
The army looked majestic with their pitch-black battleships, which exuded an overpowering and dangerous air. They charged forward like a blade thrusting into the air. They clearly weren’t in the habit of avoiding others. Those who stood in their path should give way to them instead.
The auras of three False Immortal realm cultivators emanated from the fleet. Those who sensed their presence felt as if they were basking in the auras of three gods and were awed by their power. Standing apart from these three False Immortal realm presences was another aura… which was more powerful than them.
It belonged to… a Spirit Immortal realm cultivator!
Wang Baole narrowed his eyes and immediately caught sight of a unique-looking battleship in the center of the fleet. It was shaped like a ferocious beast, one that resembled a black cheetah, and it was clearly a Dharmic Battleship!
The Black Rift Legion? Wang Baole’s eyes flashed. He wasn’t the ignoramus who had just joined the Divine Sovereign Justice Sect and knew little about the other two upper sects anymore. He knew that there was an army under the Violet Gold New Dao Sect that ranked third in the sect’s rankings of most powerful armies. It was helmed by a Dharmic Battleship that was in the shape of a black cheetah. The name of this army was… the Black Rift Legion.
“A Spirit Immortal realm and three False Immortal realm cultivators… Forget it. I have no grudge against the Black Rift Legion. Besides, we have similar names. There’s a ‘Rift’ in both our legions’ names. That counts as fate too. I’ll let them go.” Wang Baole coughed and ignored the dubious looks that Little Wu and the donkey were giving him. He steered his Dharmic Battleship and his fleet of battleships aside and gave way to the Black Rift Legion.
The Black Rift Legion charged past Wang Baole’s army as soon as the latter shifted aside. They rushed forward and were about to go right past him when one of the False Immortal realm cultivators suddenly extended her Divine Sense out. Her Divine Sense fell like a sudden cloak over Wang Baole. A furious voice and the sound of grinding teeth thundered in the cosmos after that quick scan.
“Long Nanzi!”
Someone leaped out of one of the battleships in the Black Rift Legion. The battleship was clearly one of the more powerful ones in the fleet, second only to the Dharmic Battleship. It was a woman. She was… the former commander of the Ink Dragon Legion!
The Ink Dragon Legion had been defeated by Wang Baole. Even if they were to regroup, it would be a near-impossible feat for them to reach their former glory. The Black Rift Legion had taken the opportunity to merge the remnants of the Ink Dragon Legion to its main fleet. The former commander of the Ink Dragon Legion joined the Black Rift Legion as well, becoming the third vice commander of the fleet.
The woman had found Wang Baole’s fleet familiar. That had been why she had scanned it with her Divine Sense. The hate that she felt for Wang Baole had erupted instantly when she felt his presence.
A violent glint flashed in Wang Baole’s eyes. His aim had been to vent the frustration that he had felt from being hunted that day. Besides, he had given way to the Black Rift Legion earlier. This cursed woman was the one who had jumped out of her battleship, looking for trouble. Despite the violence flashing in his eyes, Wang Baole tried to control himself and steer his fleet away.
“Black Rift Legion, I’m Long Nanzi, the commander of the Soul Rift Legion under the Divine Sovereign Justice Sect. I’ve just returned from a distant expedition. I’ve already given way to you, so what’s the meaning of this? Don’t push me too far!” Wang Baole’s voice sounded furious, as if he were on the verge of breaking down. He seemed to be panicking.
Anyone who heard him would think he was panicking. That was why he had whipped out the Divine Sovereign Justice Sect’s name to escape the trouble that he had just landed himself in.
His act proved to be effective. Fury lit the eyes of the former Ink Dragon Legion commander ablaze. She struggled to hold herself back as she turned her eyes towards the Dharmic Battleship, where the Black Rift Legion’s commander was located.
“Commander!” Her shrill voice rang out. A few moments later, a calm voice drifted out from the Black Rift Legion’s Dharmic Battleship.
“Long Nanzi attempted to steal the Black Rift Legion’s military secrets. Arrest him!”
The former Ink Dragon Legion commander was elated when she heard her commander’s orders. She dashed towards Wang Baole instantly. The other two False Immortal realm cultivators of the Black Rift Legion charged out of their battleships and rushed at Wang Baole like two shooting stars.
They were clearly looking for a quick battle. Arresting Wang Baole was going to be a piece of cake for them. With three False Immortal realm cultivators attacking Wang Baole jointly, the battle was going to be over in a second.
Wang Baole laughed as he watched them charge at him. He had controlled himself earlier because he wanted to be seen as the reasonable one. He had wanted to assess the Black Rift Legion’s attitude towards him as well. They had no grudge against each other, so it wouldn’t have been right for him to strike first. Things had changed now, though.
Wang Baole grinned and dissipated into a cloud of mist. He reappeared outside his Dharmic Battleship and sent his fist flying towards the former Ink Dragon Legion commander!
“Scram!” A False Immortal realm power exploded from Wang Baole’s person as he sent his fist punching out. The punch held the force of a tornado. The former Ink Dragon Legion commander’s eyes widened, and shock rose within her as Wang Baole’s fist landed. The cosmos reverberated with a thunderous boom, and spirit energy rippled across the universe. The former Ink Dragon Legion commander shuddered violently, feeling a powerful shock wave lashing through her body. She puked out a mouthful of blood and fell back like a kite cut of its string.
The sight sent the other two False Immortal realm cultivators reeling back with shock. They narrowed their eyes. It was then that their commander’s voice boomed from aboard the Black Rift Legion’s Dharmic Battleship.
“Get into position, Black Rift Legion. We don’t need him alive. Execute him immediately when you catch him!” Upon that command, thousands of Black Rift Legion battleships thundered as they rushed into position, intending to surround Wang Baole completely.
“You’re the one who’s going to be dead!” Wang Baole sneered as he stood on his Dharmic Battleship, gazing out into the battlefield.
“You’ve got quite an army, but mine isn’t small either!” With a wave of his hand, Wang Baole sent his fleet of self-destructing battleships charging out. More than ten thousand of those battleships surrounded the army forces!
A deathly silence descended on the battlefield instantly. The cultivators of the Black Rift Legion, who had been condescending and proud a moment earlier, were now thunderstruck.
If one were to look at the battlefield from a distance… it no longer seemed like a case of the Black Rift Legion having Wang Baole surrounded. Wang Baole’s Soul Rift Legion had surrounded the Black Rift Legion instead!
“You were thinking of bullying me?” Wang Baole stared into the distance, where the Black Rift Legion stood, and asked coolly.
