Wang Baole narrowed his eyes. Everything was too bizarre. He felt his scalp prickle. He stood where he was and stared at his surroundings. No matter how far he spread his Divine Sense, he couldn't find a trace of the young girl. After a moment of silence, Wang Baole didn't continue sending a voice transmission to his senior brother, Chen Qing. Instead, he called for Little Missy in his heart.
Strangely, Little Missy didn't respond. On any other occasion, Wang Baole wouldn't have thought much of it. But today, he had an indescribable feeling.
Fortunately, Little Wu, the donkey, and the little black fish had returned after trapping the Never-Ending Prince, who was left with only his soul. Even though they didn't go near the furnace, Wang Baole could sense them.
"Little Five, donkey, come here!" Wang Baole spoke immediately as soon as he sensed them. Little Wu and the donkey flew to Wang Baole's side under the watchful eyes of the crowd.
The little black fish did the same. It circled around Wang Baole, although no one could see it. Wang Baole ignored the little black fish, and instead sent a message to Little Five and the donkey.
"Describe everything that I've done since I entered the Furnace Area!"
Little Five looked at Wang Baole in surprise, and the donkey glanced curiously at him.
"Hurry up and tell me!" Wang Baole said, frowning. For some reason, he felt a bit irritated. Seeing that, Little Five hurried to speak.
"Dad, after you arrived, some idiot tried to stop you, but you slapped him to death. Then you tried to steal the ovens, but ended up being surrounded by a dozen or so idiots. They didn't know that you were an extraordinary warrior, so you killed quite a few of them with ease. The rest of them were so frightened that they scattered like birds. Then you took one of the ovens, and no one dared to provoke you. You were invincible!"
"Son!" The donkey nodded, indicating that Little Five was right.
"And then?" Wang Baole asked, narrowing his eyes.
"And then?" That Never-Yang Prince that we captured, he didn't know what was good for him. He actually dared to provoke Father. In Father's anger, he went up and suppressed him again. "Little Five looked at Wang Baole strangely.
"How did he provoke me?" Wang Baole asked again.
"Ah? He walked out of the furnace and scolded Father. "Little Five's expression became even more strange. He felt that something was amiss with Wang Baole's questions.
Wang Baole also felt that something was off. After a moment of silence, he suddenly spoke up.
"Because of that little girl?"
"What little girl?" Little Five was stunned, and so was the donkey. This caused a ripple in Wang Baole's mind. Little Five might be able to lie, but the donkey would not. It was connected to Wang Baole's mind, and Wang Baole could clearly sense its thoughts.
Everything was as Little Five had said.
Then … what was the truth? Wang Baole already had an answer in his heart. Perhaps in that instant, everyone present had been hallucinating. Or perhaps … it was just his own hallucination.
In any case, no one had seen the little girl. Not even Wang Baole's all-powerful Elder Brother Chen Qing had seen the little girl. In that case … the more he thought about it, the more terrifying it became.
Gradually, an intense sense of crisis filled Wang Baole, causing him to be on guard. At the same time, he felt even more urgent to increase his cultivation base. After a few breaths of time, Wang Baole leaped up into the air, causing the first furnace he had occupied to explode with power.
Instantly, the Shattering natural law within the furnaces surged toward Wang Baole like a flood. It merged into his body, where it was devoured by his scabbard.
It didn't take long for a vortex to appear around Wang Baole, which grew larger and larger. It even affected the other seven furnaces, causing the faces of the Cultivators around them to flicker.
It was at this point that, all of a sudden, a tinkling laughter rang out in Wang Baole's ears, echoing out through the starry sky. When Wang Baole heard the laughter, his eyes snapped open.
Although he couldn't see the source of the laughter, he could see that the eyes of all the Cultivators present, regardless of whether they were the ones who had been fighting over the ovens, or the three who already had Masters … were all filled with a distorted light. It was as if some bizarre power was silently affecting all of the Cultivators present.
Even Little Five and the donkey were affected. For a brief moment, a black glow appeared in their eyes. Only the little black fish continued to swim about, showing no reaction whatsoever.
When Wang Baole saw the changes in the Cultivators, his heart trembled. He immediately waved his hand to put Little Five and the donkey into his bag of holding, then called out to his Elder Brother.
However … his call seemed to be blocked, and didn't make a single sound.
"Uncle, there's no need to be so vigilant. It's not like I'm going to hurt you ….
"It's just … too few people are dying here. That's not very fun." The girl's voice echoed out in Wang Baole's mind, causing the surrounding Chosen from the Ten Thousand Sects and Clans to look at Wang Baole with bloodshot eyes. Then, they let out roars, as if they had just encountered an irreconcilable enemy, and began to attack Wang Baole from all directions.
The most powerful of them all were three!
One was the woman from the silver dragon. Another was the young man who had charged out with the Five Elements Ancient Sword. The last was the Never-Ending Prince.
All three of them were in the great circle of the Eternal Star level. The Never-Ending Prince was in the Heavenly level. The other two were not, but their Eternal Star level was special, and was no lower than the Heavenly level.
Their attacks caused everything to shake violently, and the starry sky to tremble. As for the remaining Cultivators, their cultivation bases exploded with power, and they roared as they attacked.
"What's going on?" All of this happened too suddenly. It could be said that everything had changed since the appearance of the girl. Even though Wang Baole was strong, he was still shocked. He hadn't reached the level where he could suppress dozens of Eternal Stars on his own.
After all, most of the Chosen here were at the great circle of the Eternal Star level, and there were three of them who were far more powerful than their peers. Therefore, Wang Baole immediately retreated.
Even as he retreated, the Five Elements Ancient Sword pierced through the spot where he had been standing. Then, the illusory silver dragon roared and slashed down with its claw. Countless divine abilities and magical techniques surged toward him with mountain-toppling, sea-draining force.
"Who exactly are you?" After Wang Baole dodged, he stood near the core furnace and roared. His voice was like thunder, spreading in all directions and covering the core furnace.
However … he clearly felt that it was his Senior Brother inside, but there was no reaction.
The sight of it caused Wang Baole's heart to sink even more.
"Uncle, no one here can sense you," she said. "Don't worry, go ahead and kill them all. If too few people die, it won't be fun. Keep it up, Uncle."
"As for who I am … Uncle, why don't you take a guess?" The young girl's voice was tinged with a strange laughter as it reverberated in the air. The cultivators who were affected by her became even more frenzied. Some of them even self-destructed as they charged towards Wang Baole.
Wang Baole retreated hastily, an ugly look on his face. Fortunately, even though he had dodged, his connection with the two furnaces was still intact. Large amounts of shattered nomological laws were still emerging from the furnaces and surging towards him. Therefore, when he saw the surrounding cultivators charging towards him again with red eyes, an icy glint flashed in Wang Baole's eyes. The scabbard inside his body suddenly spread outwards.
In the blink of an eye, the gravitational force increased, and boundless Shattered natural law poured madly into the Intrinsic Scabbard. The scabbard was now pitch black, and was on the verge of becoming completely transparent.
The Intrinsic Scabbard was Wang Baole's trump card, and the only thing he could think of that could help him break out of this situation. He could sense that as the scabbard absorbed the Shattered natural law … there was a sword qi growing inside of it that was growing more and more terrifying!
Of course, there was also the Daoist Scripture.
However, the Daoist Scripture couldn't be used for very long. It was mostly used to suppress and intimidate, and wasn't powerful enough!
Wang Baole's eyes narrowed. Ignoring the Cultivators charging toward him, he continued to dodge and evade, and continued to absorb the Shattered natural law.
At the same time, more and more green threads appeared, seemingly able to ignore the seal due to their different levels of power. More and more of them appeared …
30,000. 50,000. 100,000. 200,000 ….
