"A fragment of the mask?!" Wang Baole's eyes flashed. Up until now, he had only obtained one fragment back on Earth. After fusing with the mask, Little Missy had obviously become more intelligent.
There was also one fragment in the experimental base on Mars. It was just that with his current status and identity, he was still unable to obtain it. However, Wang Baole was not worried about that fragment. He knew that as long as his status and cultivation were high enough, it would be easy for him to obtain it.
Therefore, the fragment that Little Missy suddenly mentioned should be the third fragment that he had encountered so far!
Sensing the urgency in Little Missy's words, Wang Baole calculated the amount of time he had left. Then, without pausing, he charged straight into the sea of fire. As he continued to descend, he gradually felt the heat become more intense. At the same time, there was also a sense of pressure spreading from all directions.
This pressure was so violent that it caused Wang Baole's body to tremble. He gritted his teeth and continued to descend. Just like that … as the temperature continued to increase and the pressure continued to erupt, Wang Baole got closer and closer to the bottom of the sea of fire.
Through the gray mosquito's perspective, he vaguely saw that there seemed to be a large area of ruins in the sea of fire below him. However, before he could take a closer look, the gray mosquito began to tremble as if it could not withstand the pressure. Wang Baole hurriedly put it away. Although his surroundings were once again blocked by the magma, he still continued to descend a few hundred feet.
This few hundred feet was already Wang Baole's limit. He felt an intense pressure and an astonishing heat. Even though his physical body was in the Core Formation realm, he still felt extremely terrified. He even had a premonition that if he descended another few hundred feet, his body would not be able to withstand the heat. He would be engulfed by the sea of fire and his body and soul would be destroyed.
"Big sister, it's not that I don't want to help you, it's just that … I can't get down." Wang Baole said helplessly in his mind. With a flash of his body, he dashed toward the surface of the sea. This time, he had sunk too deep, so the Spiritual Qi in his body was almost dried up. Fortunately, Wang Baole had a strong body. Before the Spiritual Qi was completely dried up, he finally rushed out of the sea of fire. As the sea roared, his figure appeared in mid-air. Wang Baole was panting heavily. As he circulated his cultivation base, his devouring seed exploded, sucking in a large amount of Spiritual Qi around him.
After a long moment, his face returned to normal, and his cultivation base gradually stabilized. Looking down at the sea of flames, Wang Baole felt a bit regretful. Just as he was about to leave, Little Missy's voice suddenly echoed in his mind.
"Baole, I'll give you the formula for an Immortal Artifact. Follow it and you'll be able to create a special fire-resistant boat. It's a sixth-grade Immortal Artifact. Given your skill in refining artifacts, you should be able to create it. With this boat … you'll be able to descend far enough into the sea of flames!"
As she spoke, the formula for the Immortal Artifact and the method to create it appeared in Wang Baole's mind. Wang Baole blinked. This was the second time Little Missy had given him a formula for an Immortal Artifact. As for the first time, it was for the scabbard.
"You're in such a hurry?" Wang Baole could hear the seriousness in Little Missy's voice, as well as her eagerness to obtain the fragment. Hence, after some thought, he deduced the difficulty of creating the Immortal Artifact before nodding his head.
"Alright. Since Little Missy has asked, I, Wang Baole, will definitely not frown even if I have to go through a sea of fire or a mountain of swords. I …" As Wang Baole spoke, he even patted his chest, looking as if he was unafraid of death and that Little Missy had to accept his favor. However, before he could finish speaking, Little Missy's helpless voice sounded.
"Alright, stop pretending. You're just trying to flatter me. You're still lacking. Anyway, listen to me. Let's not talk about Earth for now. Here in the Vast Expanse Dao Palace on the ancient greenish-bronze sword, I'll protect you. You can do whatever you want!"
Wang Baole's eyes lit up. This was what he wanted to hear. Hence, he hurriedly praised her again. After all, he was in an unfamiliar environment and felt very insecure. Furthermore, he had some guesses about Little Missy's background. Hence, he took the opportunity to establish a good relationship with her.
Little Missy seemed to enjoy the feeling of being flattered. Just like that, Wang Baole did not return to Green Fire Island as he continued to flatter her. Instead, he went to the main island of the Vast Expanse Dao Palace. There, he handed over the Inferno Rat's mission and used his battle credits to exchange for some materials.
However, his battle credits were too little. It was difficult to exchange for all the materials needed to refine Dharma artifacts. After much consideration, Wang Baole could only look for Fatso. He pawned a Dharma Armament from him and borrowed some battle credits. Only then was he able to exchange for all the materials.
By the time he returned to Green Fire Island, it was already evening. Wang Baole hurriedly entered his cave abode and immediately went into seclusion to refine. Although this Dharma artifact was unfamiliar to him and it was his first time refining it, Wang Baole's attainments in refining equipment were already extremely high. He could even refine Dharma Armaments. Hence, after a brief study, he immediately got to work. It took him an entire day. On the afternoon of the second day, he looked at the ten-foot-long blue boat in front of him with a satisfied expression.
This boat was the recipe Dharma artifact that Little Missy had given him. He did not know its name, but regardless of whether it was inside or outside, it exuded waves of sealing power. It seemed to be able to seal the airflow from the outside world. While creating a space of its own inside, it was also able to resist the pressure.
As for the principle behind it, Wang Baole was only a little confused. Just like the scabbard, the refinement of this spirit boat also required the addition of Armament Sand. Hence, Wang Baole was unable to grasp all the details. However, based on his experience, he could vaguely sense that this refinement method that required Armament Sand should be a different system.
As for the Federation's Dharma Armaments, they were clearly derived from this system and had undergone some changes.
"Next, I'll have to test if this boat is as powerful as Little Missy described it to be. If it's really good, then I can give it a name." Wang Baole touched the boat in front of him. He seemed satisfied, but his heart was pained. He had spent a total of more than seven hundred battle credits to refine this thing. Apart from thirty battle credits, he had borrowed the rest from others.
"For Little Missy, I've really put in a lot of effort!" Wang Baole sighed as he looked at the sky outside. Coincidentally, it was almost dusk. It was the right time to enter the sea of fire. Hence, he did not hesitate and flew out with the spirit boat. He arrived at the spot where he had entered the sea of fire and entered the spirit boat. He steered the boat directly into the sea of fire.
As soon as he entered the Sea of Fire, Wang Baole felt the difference. The Spirit Boat exuded a gentle glow that dispersed the Sea of Fire, causing all the Sea of Fire within a radius of a few dozen feet to avoid the Spirit Boat. Wang Baole was pleasantly surprised at the sight.
"It's indeed effective!" In his excitement, he immediately steered the boat down. Just like that, as time passed, Wang Baole steered the boat faster and faster. In the end, he finally reached the depth that he could not withstand previously. With the boat around, he felt much more relaxed than before.
"It's down there!" Just as Wang Baole was about to continue descending, Little Missy's anxious voice sounded in his head. Wang Baole nodded and continued descending. Slowly, he saw a huge dark silhouette appear in the sea of fire below. It was an extremely large area of ruins.
He even saw dilapidated pavilions and countless rocks. There were even some corpses that had not been burned to ashes …
All of this made Wang Baole's heart tremble. From the dilapidated pavilions, he could see that the architectural style here was similar to the main island of the Vast Expanse Dao Palace. It was not difficult to guess that this place … before the ancient greenish-bronze sword had pierced the sun and before this place had been engulfed by the sea of fire, this area had been a part of the Vast Expanse Dao Palace!
Just as he had guessed before, the land had been engulfed by the sea of fire. Hence, the islands above the sea of fire were in fact once mountain peaks.
As he sighed, Wang Baole observed for a while and steered the spirit boat down. After entering the area of ruins, he immediately felt the heat and pressure from the surroundings disappear in an instant. It was as if even though this place had been turned into ruins, there was still a protective barrier that isolated the sea of fire from the sea of fire.
It was obvious that the existence of the corpses was not because these people were powerful when they were alive. Instead, they were preserved here because the sea of fire was isolated.
Hence, after probing for a while, Wang Baole walked out of the spirit boat. His surroundings were silent. He looked left and right, then at the sea of fire above him. He carefully approached a corpse. Although this person had been dead for many years, he was still in good condition. There was even a trace of Core Formation aura left on him, proving that he had been a Core Formation realm cultivator when he was alive.
"A Core Formation realm cultivator. That's impressive. Who knows, he might have something good." Wang Baole's eyes were filled with anticipation. He squatted down and rummaged through the corpse. When he realized that there were no storage bags or tokens, he frowned and muttered to himself.
"Is he so poor … or did someone else beat him to it?"
Wang Baole felt that it was a pity, but he could understand. After all, the Vast Expanse Dao Palace had cultivations that were much higher than his. Naturally, there would be people who could enter the sea of fire and search for treasures without Dharma artifacts.
However, just as he finished muttering to himself, Little Missy's urging voice sounded in his mind.
"What are you searching for on this servant? Go ahead. I can sense that the fragment is about three thousand feet away from you in the ruined palace!"
