The voice contained the might of the Soul Conduit realm. Ordinary Core Formation cultivators, even those of the great circle, would be shaken to the core by this voice. Their souls would tremble, and they would be struck dumb, as if they had been struck by heavenly lightning.
In fact, if this person wanted to kill them, a mere shout would be enough to kill them. Yuanying wouldn't be killed, but their movements would be impeded, as if their souls had been sealed.
This kind of divine power targeted directly at the soul was the unique strength of the Soul Conduit realm, and it was impossible to resist. Even Wang Baole felt his mind rumble at that moment. It was as if his soul was about to be shaken out of his body. He wanted to continue attacking, but he couldn't do so. He even tried to retreat and avoid the attack, but he couldn't do so.
However, even as Wang Baole's soul trembled and he lost the ability to move, two ripples suddenly appeared inside of him. One came from Little Missy, and the other came from … his Essence Scabbard!!
Perhaps because she sensed the Essence Scabbard's ripples, Little Missy fell silent. In that instant, the Essence Scabbard began to emit a powerful pressure. It didn't spread out to Wang Baole, but rather, circulated within him. In the blink of an eye, the pressure from the Soul Conduit realm was dispelled!
Wang Baole's mind immediately calmed down, and his mind returned to normal. The entire process happened in the time it takes for a spark to fly off of a piece of flint. As the voice echoed out, Wang Baole didn't hesitate for a moment. He immediately switched places with the clone he had just unleashed!
In the blink of an eye, his true self and the Lightning Clone switched places. The Lightning Clone didn't pause for even a moment. It once again reached out to grab Sun Hai's head. At the same time, Wang Baole's true self also didn't hesitate for a moment. He waved his hand, sending the tri-colored flying sword whistling through the air toward … Sun Hai!
Everything happened too quickly. As Wang Baole shifted and his avatars attacked simultaneously, Mie Liezi, who was rushing towards them from the heavens, let out a furious roar.
As the angry roar reverberated in the air, an illusory giant hand appeared in mid-air and grabbed downwards. Amidst the loud boom, Wang Baole's avatar couldn't withstand the force. It didn't have time to hit Sun Hai's head before it was crushed by the giant illusory hand!
Even so, Annihilator was still a step too late. The three flying swords that Wang Baole's true self had thrown out instantly pierced through Sun Hai's chest. One of them even severed Sun Hai's head!
Blood splattered everywhere. Sun Hai's blood-curdling screams echoed in the air. Yuanying had abandoned her physical body to flee at this critical moment. The sky changed colors, and the clouds churned. Annihilator's figure descended from the sky. He landed next to Sun Hai's Yuanying. He reached out with his right hand and grabbed the trembling Sun Hai's Yuanying into his sleeve. Then he glanced at the corpse on the ground, whose chest had been pierced by the three flying swords and whose internal organs had been shattered. Finally, he looked at Wang Baole.
"Wang Baole, are you trying to betray the sect?!"
Wang Baole's breathing quickened slightly, but he didn't panic. Instead, he looked up at the sky. At this moment, the second Imminent Spirit realm aura was rapidly approaching. Annihilator also sensed Feng Qiuran's arrival. If it had been before Wang Baole's trial, he might have taken the opportunity to attack and kill Wang Baole.
However, after witnessing Wang Baole's performance in the trial with his own eyes, and knowing that Wang Baole had obtained the inheritance of the Eye of All Techniques, he was considered a disciple recognized by the sect. Even if he wasn't a descendant of the Dao Palace and came from the Federation civilization, he still had some hesitation.
That hesitation allowed Feng Qiuran's figure to descend in an instant. When she saw Sun Hai's corpse, Feng Qiuran was stunned, but she still chose to stand beside Wang Baole. She looked at Annihilator and spoke slowly.
"Annihilator, you should be careful when you say the words' betray the sect '!"
"Careful? I already asked this child to stop, but he still insisted on doing it. His methods were also cruel. He killed a fellow disciple. If this isn't betrayal, then what is?! "Annihilator's eyes were filled with determination. As he spoke, he looked coldly at Wang Baole.
Feng Qiuran hesitated for a moment. She had arrived a bit later, so she didn't know much about the situation. She looked at Lord Xu, and just as Lord Xu was about to speak, Wang Baole raised his hand to stop him. He laughed.
"Elder Annihilator," Wang Baole said, pointing at the pill furnace. "You only saw that I wanted to kill Sun Hai. Don't tell me you didn't investigate what Sun Hai did to me?"
Wang Baole's voice was filled with rage, and as it echoed out, Annihilator frowned. "Even now, my life essence holy beast is still being concocted. I came here to negotiate, and even offered to compensate him with 100,000 battle credits. But Sun Hai is still making things difficult for me. If he covets my battle credits, fine. If he keeps calling me a bastard, I can tolerate it. But I've tolerated him to this extent, and he still wants to concoct my holy beast into a Blood Pill!"
He wasn't sure exactly what was going on, but he could see the Core Formation Cultivators bowing their heads, and the aura of the living creature in the pill furnace. Wang Baole's story might have been a bit exaggerated, but it was still partially true.
However, Annihilator hadn't come here to reason things out fairly. Even though he knew that Wang Baole had returned from the Worship Palace Pavilion, he didn't care. As far as he was concerned, Wang Baole was a Conclave disciple at most. Even if his status was higher, his cultivation base would still be his weakness. Furthermore, it was highly likely that Wang Baole hadn't obtained a Conclave disciple status, but was, at most, an Inner Sect disciple.
"Unless he can obtain the status of Legacy Disciple," Annihilator thought with a cold snort. "Otherwise …." he said coolly.
"I only look at the results, not the cause. Today, Wang Baole has offended his superiors. Feng Qiuran, you can't protect him. You can either deal with him according to the sect rules, or you can get out of the Dao Palace. In any case, I want an explanation today!"
Annihilator's domineering personality was revealed as he spoke. Feng Qiuran frowned as she quickly tried to think of a solution. Lord Xu looked at Wang Baole thoughtfully. He was different from Feng Qiuran. In his opinion, Wang Baole wasn't someone who couldn't see the big picture. Especially after going through the Federation system and becoming a Secondary Rank Two Noble from an ordinary student, he wouldn't make such a low-level mistake.
The truth was more or less in line with Lord Xu's judgment. Wang Baole acted as he did because he had something to rely on. When he heard Annihilator's words, Wang Baole narrowed his eyes and lifted his chin slightly.
"You only look at the results, not the cause, huh? That's fine too …" Wang Baole said as he swept his right hand across his storage bracelet. Suddenly, a purple token appeared in his hand. He circulated his cultivation and infused it into the purple token.
Just as he took out the token and infused it with his cultivation, a brilliant purple light suddenly erupted from the token. This light shot into the sky and spread in all directions, forming a sea of purple light in the sky. It spread in all directions, causing the sky to change color and the clouds to churn. At the same time, the ancient hyacinth tree on the main peak of the Vast Expanse Dao Palace trembled violently and began to sway!
This scene shocked everyone in the surroundings. Both Annihilator and Feng Qiuran were shocked. Wang Baole's token didn't just cause a change. It also caused the Vast Expanse Dao Palace's array formation to materialize, forming a huge net that could be seen with the naked eye. It rumbled and filled the air, as if it was resonating with Wang Baole's token!
The hyacinth tree and the sect's array formation made Wang Baole the center of attention at that moment. It was as if … he could control the Vast Expanse Dao Palace's array formation if he wanted to. To a certain extent, Wang Baole had replaced Feng Qiuran and the other two's authority in the sect. He had leaped to the highest level!
It even affected the ancient greenish-bronze sword to a certain extent, causing the surrounding sea of fire to erupt. The rumbling sound shook all the Dao Palace disciples, and it was as if the sky itself was trembling. The scene was indescribable!
"This …"
"What happened!"
An uproar erupted from the Holy Sky Island and the main Vast Expanse island in the distance. Figures rushed out from the main Vast Expanse Dao Palace's main island, revealing looks of disbelief on the faces of the Yuanying cultivators. They rushed towards the center of the purple light explosion, towards the Holy Sky Island.
At the same time, Annihilator and Feng Qiuran's expressions changed. There was nothing else in their eyes. In their minds, there was only … the purple token!
"Adopted … adopted disciple!" Annihilator's body trembled. He seemed to have lost his mind as he muttered softly.
