The appearance of the corpse and the token caused Wang Baole's body to tremble, no matter how strong his mental fortitude was. His breathing quickened, and he didn't have time to think. A strong sense of danger exploded around him.
Wang Baole had already retreated the moment the danger appeared. However, he had been delayed by the core token for a breath's worth of time, so he was a little late in retreating. This made his original plan of escaping with light injuries a little more complicated.
With a boom, the black thread instantly closed in and collided with the tri-colored flying sword. With a hum, the tri-colored flying sword seemed to have been hit by a great force. As it trembled, the black thread suddenly multiplied from one to ten. They came from different directions and intersected with each other as if they were going to tear Wang Baole into pieces.
At this critical moment, Wang Baole let out a low roar and formed a seal with both hands. Instantly, the tri-colored flying sword and the ribbons exploded with light, and the pressure of the Dharmic Armaments spread out. The Dark Core in Wang Baole's body also released a large amount of Dark Fire. As it spread in all directions, his Thunder Immortal Transformation was also activated to the extreme. His physical body was also supported by this, and his Qi and blood surged to the heavens. All of this finally allowed him to rush out of the area of the restriction before the ten black threads could cut him!
However, even though he had rushed out, the backlash from the ten black threads still exploded in his body after he left. Wang Baole coughed up blood, and this time, his organs were in excruciating pain.
If this pain had been inflicted on anyone else, perhaps they would have fainted. However, Wang Baole was a ruthless person, and he was even more ruthless to himself. He endured the excruciating pain and didn't stop at all after he rushed out. He pushed his speed to the extreme, and with a boom, he turned into a long rainbow and shot off into the distance.
He knew very well that even if he was sure there was no one around, it was definitely not suitable for him to stay in the dangerous area of the sword body. Therefore, the best path for him was to cut off all possibilities and rush out of the sword body as quickly as possible to return to the sword hilt!
Just like that, he pushed his speed to the extreme and didn't stop at all. He was only a few dozen miles away from the protective layer between the sword hilt and the sword body, and there was no fog to obstruct him. Therefore, Wang Baole was like a long line that swept across the sky at an astonishing speed. He approached the protective layer with a howl and rushed out in an instant!
The moment he rushed out, Wang Baole coughed up blood again. However, he could clearly feel that the temperature around him had become cooler. It gave him an extremely comfortable feeling, as if he had instantly gone from summer to autumn.
However, this was only a relative term. In fact, even the sword hilt was still hot, but compared to the inside of the sword body, to a certain extent, the outside could indeed be described as autumn or cool.
Under this cooling sensation, Wang Baole's spirit was lifted. He didn't slow down, and in one breath, he flew far away. When he noticed that no one was chasing after him or ambushing him, he finally let out a sigh of relief in his heart. At that moment, his injuries were not light, so he simply found a deserted island and directly opened up a simple cave abode. After he entered, he immediately sat down cross-legged, took out some healing medicinal pills, swallowed them, and began to meditate.
Just like that, seven days passed. When Wang Baole opened his eyes in the cave abode, there was a glint in his eyes. The injuries he had previously suffered had already healed by about eighty percent, and he was no longer in any serious danger.
"That restrictive spell was too strong," he thought. "And that was only because it had a loophole that I was able to take advantage of. If it didn't have a loophole, then if I wanted to go in and take something back, all of my magical items would have been destroyed. That wouldn't have been worth it." As Wang Baole thought back to the restrictive spell on the mountain, his heart filled with lingering fear. At the same time, he also began to feel excited about his gains. He quickly took them out to examine them.
As soon as he had acquired the bags of holding, he had left at top speed. As soon as he arrived, he had immediately begun to heal himself. He hadn't had a chance to examine his gains. As he took them out one by one and counted them, his eyes began to shine.
"A total of thirty-nine bags of holding!" He said excitedly. He felt a bit like when he had bought the lottery in Phoenix City. Filled with anticipation, Wang Baole looked over the thirty-nine bags of holding. He immediately picked one up and scanned it with Spiritual Sense. His eyes shone even brighter than before. He flipped his hand, and a palm-sized gray command medallion appeared in his palm.
The command medallion was cold to the touch. He didn't know what kind of cold attribute material it was made of, but it even exuded waves of suppressive force. It was obvious that it wasn't an ordinary item. A name was written on the front of the medallion, and two words were written on the back.
Wang Baole wasn't unfamiliar with the language of the Vast Expanse Dao Palace. In fact, the Federation had also popularized it over the years. It was just that no one was told that it was the language of the Vast Expanse Dao Palace.
After all, many of the cultivation techniques of the Federation came from fragments. With Mo Gaozi around, the language wasn't difficult for Wang Baole. It was basically a foreign language that all cultivators had to master.
"Sun Yan, Outer Sect!" Wang Baole caressed the command medallion in his hand and read out the words on both sides.
"Gray, red, purple, and black V are the colors of the command medallions of the Outer Sect, Inner Sect, Core Sect, and Elders. However, there's no standard for the Grand Supreme Elder's command medallion." Wang Baole recalled the explanation of the identity medallion mission given by the sect. He was very sure that the command medallion in his hand was an Outer Sect Disciple's command medallion that was worth 100 battle credits.
After putting the command medallion aside, Wang Baole continued to look through the storage bag. He realized that there weren't many items inside. Most of them were damaged, and there weren't many elixirs either. Clearly, this Outer Sect Disciple named Sun Yan wasn't rich.
However, Wang Baole wasn't discouraged. Instead, he opened the second storage bag with anticipation. This storage bag also contained an Outer Sect Disciple's command medallion. Other than that, there was also a sealed bottle of elixirs. Wang Baole didn't know the name of the elixir, but from the looks of the bottle, it seemed to be extraordinary. He opened it and couldn't help but gasp.
"I only took a whiff of this elixir, and my entire body's spiritual energy surged. This is a treasure pill!" Wang Baole excitedly put it away and moved on to the next one.
Just like that, as he opened one storage bag after another, cries of excitement and surprise would ring out from his mouth from time to time. When he opened the thirty-first storage bag, Wang Baole's eyes widened, and his expression became one of excitement.
That was because the items and identity medallion inside this bag were different from the others. This medallion was crimson!
"An Inner Sect Disciple's command medallion!"
Wang Baole roused himself and carefully looked through the Inner Sect disciple's bag of holding. Inside, he saw over a thousand white stones, although he didn't know what they were used for. In addition, he also saw five copper coins!
Each of the five copper coins was about half the size of a palm. On the front was a ferocious image of an evil spirit, and on the back was a sentence.
"Mountain Ghost, Thunder, Kill Ghost, Spirit, Slay Demons, Ward off Evil, Forever Keep Spirit Clear!"
Looking at the copper coins, Wang Baole was a little stunned. He didn't know what they were, but he could sense the aura of a Dharma treasure from them. Therefore, he put them aside and planned to go back to the Vast Expanse Dao Palace to look for more information.
Other than that, there were some miscellaneous items. Finally, there was a white jade slip, which caught Wang Baole's attention. After he took it out and scanned it with his spiritual awareness, his breathing stopped immediately. He quickly picked up the copper coins beside him and looked at the jade slip. After a while, he muttered to himself softly.
"Talisman Soldier?"
The jade slip recorded the method of refining and controlling a talisman soldier. It was a special Dharma treasure, but it was very powerful. For example, the five copper coins were a type of talisman soldier.
After studying it for a while, Wang Baole felt the profoundness of the jade slip. He knew that it wasn't something that could be understood in a short period of time. Therefore, he solemnly kept the jade slip and began to check the other bags of holding. After checking all the bags of holding, he looked at the rewards in front of him, and his heart started to beat faster.
Without counting the other items, just the identity badges, thirty-eight Outer Sect disciples, and one Inner Sect disciple were worth a lot of battle merits. There were also many elixirs and damaged Dharma treasures. As they hadn't been appraised, it was difficult to estimate their value. However, Wang Baole judged that they were worth a certain amount of battle merits.
In this way, Wang Baole could be said to have returned from this trip to the heart of the sword body with a bountiful harvest. If others were to know about this, they would definitely be jealous.
"There's also the elixir that seems to be the Universal Elixir.
"There's also that purple identity badge!" Thinking about it, Wang Baole's eyes shone brightly. He naturally wouldn't forget the reason why he was injured, which was because he was shocked by the purple identity badge.
After all, purple represented a core disciple, and the value of a core disciple's identity badge was worth twenty thousand battle merits!
At the same time, Wang Baole also wouldn't forget that there were many well-preserved pavilions in the mountain peak, as well as the figure sitting cross-legged in the cave abode at the top!
"If I'm not wrong, that mountain used to be the cave abode of the core disciple of the real Vast Expanse Dao Palace!"
The cave abode of a core disciple that hadn't been explored by anyone before was so valuable that Wang Baole's eyes turned red after thinking about it for a while.
