The figures of these five people quickly turned from blurry to clear, allowing many people to immediately recognize their identities.
"It's them!"
"The ninth disciple of Divine Emperor Jiga … He's so arrogant. He's the one who stole my Guiding Light. Damn it, but he's too strong. He treats us like ants. We can't do anything to him!"
"And Xing Jingzi … That guy has a strong murderous aura. I didn't expect him to succeed!"
"That Wang Baole is among them too!"
An uproar spread out in all directions as soon as the identities of the five people were revealed. It formed a sound wave that spread out in all directions.
Among the five cultivators in the Firmament Star Dome Realm, there was the ninth young master of Divine Emperor Jiga's bloodline, and the seventh Dao Child of the Nine States Dao. Apart from the two of them, the other three cultivators weren't as famous. Wang Baole had attracted a lot of attention as well, but in the eyes of the public, he wasn't as famous as the ninth young master. He was at most as famous as the seventh Dao Child of the Nine States Dao.
As for the last two people, one of them was Xing Jingzi, who had crossed paths with Wang Baole in the Graveyard of Stars. The other one … was Xie Haiyang!
At this moment, as they appeared, and as the old servant next to the Heavenly Spell Esteemed Cultivator on the island above the crater spoke, all the cultivators on the 39 giant beasts around the crater looked at them with envy, jealousy, hatred, and other complicated feelings. After all, to be able to comprehend ten lifetimes required a certain amount of luck and opportunity. Therefore, it was natural that they would be envious. However, they did not have the luck and could only watch others obtain the qualifications. Therefore, it was understandable that they would be jealous.
As for hatred … In fact, among the hundreds of thousands of cultivators, it was impossible that only five people had comprehended ten lifetimes. However, most of them had their Guiding Lights stolen during the trial and had to give up on the trial. Therefore, when they saw the five people, hatred naturally grew.
Among the five people in the sky, the ninth young master of Divine Emperor Jiga's bloodline was the most dazzling. After all, as a member of the Never-Ending Clan, he was superior to others. Moreover, with the help of his master's name, he would be the center of attention no matter where he was.
As for the others, other than the Seventh Dao Child of the Nine States Path and Wang Baole, who could barely compete with each other, the surrounding cultivators didn't think that they could surpass the Ninth Young Master, who was the Divine Emperor's disciple.
All of this takes a long time to describe, but before long, something completely unexpected happened. As the five figures became clearer, and their minds recovered, they looked at each other …. In the blink of an eye, the ninth disciple of Divine Emperor Jiga, the most domineering of all Chosen, suddenly looked shocked!
He realized that he was standing by Wang Baole's side, and that he was smiling at him.
"This …." His heart trembled, and he almost cursed out loud. Wang Baole's strength had struck fear into his heart. He couldn't forget how everyone had tried to escape Wang Baole's gaze. His scalp was tingling so hard it felt like it was going to explode. His expression flickered, and he instinctively backed up, putting some distance between himself and Wang Baole.
Similarly, the seventh Dao Child of the Nine States Path gasped and backed up, putting as much distance between himself and Wang Baole as possible. It was as if that was the only way he could feel safe.
Although Xing Jingzi and Xie Haiyang didn't move, the reactions of the Seventh Dao Child and the ninth disciple of the Divine Emperor caused the hundreds of thousands of cultivators below to stare in shock.
"What's going on?"
"Am I seeing things? The ninth disciple of the Divine Emperor and the Dao Child of the Nine States Path are avoiding Wang Baole?"
"Don't tell me they fought Wang Baole in there, and got the short end of the stick?"
Everyone was shocked. Wang Baole narrowed his eyes and swept his gaze over the Divine Emperor's ninth disciple and the Nine States Dao Child, who were clearly nervous under his gaze. Wang Baole wasn't surprised that the two of them had attained enlightenment for their tenth lifetime. As for Xing Jingzi, he was an extraordinary individual, so it was within his expectations as well. However, Wang Baole hadn't expected Xie Haiyang to do so.
Wang Baole nodded at Xie Haiyang and Xing Jingzi, then turned and walked towards Divine Emperor Jiga's ninth disciple. He narrowed his eyes.
His pace wasn't fast, but it caused the ninth disciple's expression to change once more. He retreated once more and let out a roar.
"Wang Baole –" he growled.
Before he could finish speaking, Wang Baole seemed to be walking at a leisurely pace, but in the blink of an eye, he was directly in front of the ninth Young Master of the Divine Emperor's bloodline.
At the same time, the old servant next to Lord Heavenspell frowned, and was about to intervene when Lord Heavenspell cleared his throat.
In response, the old servant, who had a cultivation base in the Domain of the Stars, lowered his head, and did nothing to stop Lord Heavenspell.
No one could do anything to stop him. No matter how the ninth disciple roared or performed incantation gestures, it was useless. As soon as Wang Baole appeared, the ninth disciple clenched his right hand into a fist and punched out!
It was an ordinary punch, and yet it contained shocking power. Rumbling sounds filled Heaven and Earth, and ripping ripples spread out in all directions. It was like a windstorm that swept over everything, and then exploded in front of the disciple of the God Emperor.
The ninth young master was completely powerless to fight back. All of his attempts to fight back were like paper, crushed by Wang Baole's fist like a dried twig. It slammed into him, causing him to tremble violently. Blood sprayed out of his mouth as he was sent tumbling backward. When he was about three hundred meters away, he coughed up more blood. Threads of natural law appeared all over him, not natural law, but rather, the power of the nine great natural laws contained in Wang Baole's fist.
The threads of natural law had transformed from formless to corporeal, and were now swirling about inside of him. His injuries worsened, and his Ancient Star's foundation was shaken. His Ancient Star began to grow dim, and cracks began to spread out across its surface.
The ninth disciple's heart was pounding, and his face was ashen. He couldn't conceal the astonishment in his eyes, and yet, he couldn't suppress his rage.
"You …."
"That fist strike is the price you paid for sneak attacking me in the trial by fire," he said coolly. "If you say another word, then … I'll kill you!" Wang Baole spoke calmly as he stared coldly at the Divine Emperor's ninth disciple. The Divine Emperor's ninth disciple felt as if a cold bucket of water had been poured over his head when he was swept by Wang Baole's gaze. He trembled instantly as he sensed the murderous intent and fell silent immediately.
Ignoring the Divine Emperor's ninth disciple, Wang Baole turned his head and looked at the Nine States Dao's seventh Dao Child, whose expression had changed completely.
The Dao Child was a decisive person. After seeing Wang Baole's attack, he was certain that he would be incapable of dodging, nor would he be able to fight back. Therefore, he slammed his hand down onto his chest. Cracking sounds could be heard as his sternum shattered. The injury was serious, and he couldn't even stand up straight. Blood oozed out of his mouth, but he didn't seem to care. Instead, he looked up at Wang Baole.
"I was bewitched just now, and offended you. I hope you can forgive me, Fellow Daoist!"
Although his injuries seemed serious, they hadn't damaged his foundation, and could be healed with medicinal pills. This was one of the reasons why he was so smart. He knew that if Wang Baole had attacked him, there was an eighty to ninety percent chance that his planet would have been shattered. If that happened, it would not have been possible to heal him with medicinal pills.
Seeing the Seventh Dao Child act so decisively, Wang Baole's eyes narrowed. After giving him a deep look, he looked away. Then, under the shocked gazes of the countless cultivators below, he walked toward the island at the mouth of the volcano. As he neared, Wang Baole chose one of the ten tables on the island that didn't have a projection. He didn't immediately sit down, but instead turned to face Lord Heavenspell, who sat cross-legged in the middle of the island. Lord Heavenspell clasped hands and bowed.
"Lord Heavenspell is as elegant as ever, and your longevity is as long as the Heavens."
Lord Heavenspell's words of congratulations caused the old servant to frown again. He was about to rebuke Meng Hao, but then, something happened that caused his heart to tremble.
Lord Heavenspell, who had been sitting cross-legged, actually … stood up and bowed back to Wang Baole!
The old servant's pupils constricted when he saw this, as well as all of the surrounding cultivators.
Wang Baole was silent for a moment, then once again clasped hands and bowed. Then, he sat down. As he did, the table began to blur, and then a beam of light shot up into the sky. It shone brightly with the light from the other eighty-nine projections. Xie Haiyang and Xing Jingzi suppressed the shock in their hearts as they flew over to the other tables and clasped hands to offer their congratulations.
As their own beams of light shot up into the sky, the pale-faced Nine Provinces Dao Child and the Divine Emperor's nine disciples also silently approached and sat down to offer their congratulations.
However … the four of them only received a slight nod from Lord Heavenspell as he sat down again. Compared to when he had stood up to return the greeting, the difference was like the difference between Heaven and Earth!
