Wang Baole's face flickered, and he pushed his speed to the limit. Finally, just as the hand was about to land, he shot out from the edge of the palm. However, the pressure and the tempest created by the descending hand still swept over Wang Baole, causing him to stagger. In the next moment, however, he once again increased his speed. Without even looking back, he continued to flee.
As for the finger that had been chasing him, it was now fusing with the descending hand, where it had been severed. Gradually, it began to grow back together.
When Wang Baole noticed this, he began to flee even faster. After the finger and the hand connected, the five fingers of the enormous hand began to slowly move. They formed into fists, and when they touched each other, it was as if they had reached an agreement. Then, they opened up and shot toward Wang Baole with even greater speed.
"You're going too far!" Wang Baole felt very depressed. If it were just one finger, he might be able to fight back. But five fingers and a hand? Unless his true body arrived, there was no way he could possibly suppress it.
In fact, if it caught up to him, Wang Baole was worried that he would be quickly devoured. That gave Wang Baole a headache. However, he didn't regret his earlier greed.
After all, wealth comes from danger. If it weren't for his previous hard work, how could his Law of Gluttony have improved so much? How could he have grown from a height of more than 900 meters to a height of more than 500 meters?
Therefore, although he was depressed, Wang Baole was very satisfied. He continued to flee at top speed, transforming into a beam of light that shot past Cheng Lingzi and the others.
Cheng Lingzi and the others stared blankly at Wang Baole's back, and at the enormous hand that seemed to be filled with rage. Their faces were pale, and they exchanged glances. Although they were shaken by Wang Baole's power, they couldn't help but speculate.
Was the new Lord of Gluttony … going to perish here …?
Even Cheng Lingzi, who had always been fanatical about Wang Baole, had his confidence shaken at this moment. He opened his mouth wanting to say something, but when he saw Wang Baole's sorry figure in the distance, he fell silent.
Wang Baole was also having a headache. Although he was fast, the speed of the palm was equally astonishing, and it pursued him relentlessly. Even when he fled into the fog, it continued to pursue him. Even under the fog in the sky, the palm did not let him go, as if it could chase him forever.
There were even a few times when the finger used some unknown technique to suddenly accelerate and reach out to grab Wang Baole. Although it missed, it still caused Wang Baole's mind to tremble.
"I can't let this go on, or else it'll only get more and more dangerous …" In his anxiety, Wang Baole suddenly lowered his head to look at the ground, a look of struggle in his eyes. But soon, the struggle disappeared, replaced by decisiveness.
His body flickered as he changed directions and shot toward the ground.
Since he couldn't shake off the palm in the sky, then Wang Baole had only one path left, and that was to go underground!
"Let's see if this palm can resist the scattered will of the underground will!" Wang Baole moved with shocking speed. A boom could be heard as he reached the surface. Without pausing for a moment, he plunged into the earth and shot downward.
Behind him, the enormous finger, thousands of meters long, caught up. A boom could be heard as it slammed into the ground. It pierced through the earth like a hot knife through butter, continuing to pursue Wang Baole.
It didn't take long for Wang Baole to reach a depth of six thousand meters. The scattered will here was very strong, but Wang Baole didn't slow down in the slightest. When he sensed that the palm was still hot on his tail, he continued to descend.
When he reached a depth of four thousand meters, Wang Baole could clearly feel that he was much more relaxed than he had been the first time he had reached this depth. At the same time, he could sense that the palm behind him seemed to be slowing down because of the scattered will of the will of the sea. That was especially true of the five fingers, which seemed to be out of sync with each other.
Wang Baole's spirits were lifted when he saw that. He charged forward again. Just like that, when Wang Baole had charged more than fifty thousand feet, he heard faint cries for help.
"Save me … save me …."
The cry for help seemed to contain some shocking power. As soon as it rang out, the Law of Desire within Wang Baole began to fluctuate violently.
Wang Baole also felt a strong sense of discomfort. However, when he sensed that the five fingers of the palm chasing after him were in disarray, as if they were about to split apart, he gritted his teeth and sped toward the direction of the cry for help.
This was the same depth that Wang Baole had been at when he had first entered the underground. However, the location was different. It didn't matter, though. The cries for help were like coordinates that led Wang Baole closer and closer to the cave that he had been to before as he sped underground.
Half an hour later, the cries for help became clearer. Wang Baole's mind was affected, and he felt a buzzing in his head. Fortunately, the Dharma of Appetite was extremely useful at the moment. It helped him counteract the effects of the Dharma of Appetite, allowing Wang Baole to maintain his consciousness. However, the palm that was chasing after him had reached its limit. Perhaps it was because the palm's consciousness wasn't unified, it had reached its limit. With a boom, all five fingers were separated from the palm.
As they separated, the five fingers and the palm immediately retreated in six different directions. Wang Baole finally heaved a sigh of relief. After that, he viciously sensed the direction in which the withered finger that he had absorbed had gone.
"Just you wait!" He thought. After a moment of thought, Wang Baole didn't leave. Instead, he continued in the direction of the cry for help.
That had been his plan all along. He wanted to see what was going on inside the cave. Now that he was here, there was no reason not to go. After the time it takes an incense stick to burn, Wang Baole reached the limit of what he could endure. The soil in front of him vanished, and a cave appeared in front of him.
There was a figure floating in the air inside the cave. His body was entangled by a large number of tentacles. These tentacles drilled into his body and were wriggling, constantly absorbing his life and Divine Soul and transferring them to an unknown place.
The scattered wills here were incomparably violent. Wang Baole endured the pain of his head exploding. Eyes bloodshot, he looked at the floating figure.
"Save me …." The floating figure was a man, emaciated and withered like a corpse. However, the pressure emanating from him was not in the least bit inferior to that of Wang Baole's true form.
At that moment, he seemed to have sensed Wang Baole's presence. His closed eyes slowly opened, revealing his double pupils as he looked at Wang Baole. However, in the next moment, when he saw Wang Baole's appearance clearly, his pupils constricted immediately, and his body began to tremble violently. His eyes were instantly filled with hatred as he roared fiercely.
"Emperor, you are despicable and shameless! You betrayed me!!"
