The ground of the Pond Cloud Rainforest was moist and filled with swamps. There were centipedes more than a foot long and countless venomous snakes. Other than that, there were even more ferocious beasts roaming about.
It could be said that even the periphery of the rainforest was filled with trepidation.
Although Wang Baole had never truly entered the rainforest before, the dream realm assessment was an extremely realistic simulation. Many of the details were completely based on the real environment. Therefore, to a certain extent, Wang Baole could be said to be familiar with the Pond Cloud Rainforest.
At that moment, his entire body sank into the mud. With an antidote in his mouth, he endured the discomfort of being in the mud and remained motionless. Only one of his eyes and nostrils were exposed as he narrowed his eyes to observe his surroundings.
Not long later, Wang Baole's heart raced. A black-robed man appeared in front of him. This black-robed man was very fast. As he sped forward, he searched his surroundings. In his hand was a circular Dharma artifact.
After noticing the Dharma artifact in the black-robed man's hand, Wang Baole's eyes narrowed. Although he did not know what it was, as a student of the Dharmic Armament faculty and a three-ranking Head Prefect, he could easily tell from its appearance that it was a Dharma artifact that was constructed based on some sort of wave.
After all, once one reached the Physical Seal realm, all auras would be sealed. Heat detection would be useless. Only such a Dharma artifact that relied on wave detection would be effective in such an environment.
The moment he saw the Dharma artifact, Wang Baole immediately felt uneasy. He did not have time to think too much. His body instantly rushed out of the mud with a bang. Almost at the same time as Wang Baole, the black-robed man, whose expression did not reveal any clues, suddenly went berserk. Almost at the same time as Wang Baole, he suddenly smacked the spot where Wang Baole had been hiding!
With a loud boom, the spot where Wang Baole had been hiding exploded into mud. If his reaction had been a little slower and he had still been hiding in the mud, his organs would have been dislocated from the impact.
At that moment, Wang Baole, who had rushed out first, had a look of panic in his eyes as he turned around to escape.
"Wang Baole!" Seeing that his attack had failed, the black-clothed man sneered and charged towards Wang Baole. His Pulse Enrichment cultivation base spread out and his speed exploded. In an instant, he caught up and raised his right hand to grab at Wang Baole.
But … just as he was about to grab Wang Baole, an astonishing suction force suddenly erupted from behind Wang Baole. This suction force was so strong that the black-clothed man's expression changed, and his body was actually sucked a step forward.
It was only a single step, but it was enough for Wang Baole. He suddenly turned, and the panic in his eyes was no longer there. Instead, it was replaced by a ferocious expression and the crazed desire to kill someone who was being chased.
"You want to kill me? I'll kill you!! " With a low roar, Wang Baole suddenly raised his right hand. The moment the black-clothed man was caught by the suction force and lost his balance, Wang Baole grabbed the black-clothed man's wrist and snapped it in an instant.
Before the black-clothed man could let out a scream, Wang Baole had already closed in behind him and covered his mouth. The veins on his forehead bulged, and his breathing became rapid as he viciously twisted his neck!
With a cracking sound, the black-clothed man's eyes widened and his pupils dilated. His body violently twitched a few times before becoming motionless.
Everything was quiet, except for the sound of Wang Baole's ragged breathing. Even though he had broken the man's neck, Wang Baole's hand continued to cover the man's mouth. After about ten breaths passed, he slowly let go. His face was so pale that it seemed to have lost all color. He stared blankly at the black-clothed man's corpse in his arms.
"I killed someone …" murmured Wang Baole. His body began to tremble, but his eyes slowly began to shine with … the ferocity of someone who had experienced bloodshed. It was different from the ferocity he had shown before. More accurately, the ferocity he had shown before was just a young man's attempt to put on a fierce front. But now … it was different!
After a long time, he looked up. In the darkness of the rainforest, his eyes shone with a light that made him seem even more intimidating.
Wang Baole silently pulled out the black-clothed man's belongings. He looked at the search Feng Shui compass, which was completely black. Clearly, it could only be activated by a special method, and could not be used by anyone other than the person himself.
Some of these special methods relied on fingerprints, some on the iris, some on the aura of blood, and some on the fluctuations of spiritual energy. It was like a password.
Wang Baole narrowed his eyes and looked at the search Enchanted item. He put it away in his bracelet of holding, then pulled out seven or eight Enchanted item seals. After adjusting them, he hid them in the clothes of the corpse. Then, he thought for a moment, then placed some flying swords in the mud around him. He quickly adjusted the inscriptions between them, causing a chain reaction. Then, he left, burrowing into the surrounding vegetation and disappearing.
Before long, three black-clothed men rushed over. When they arrived, they saw the corpse of their comrade. Their faces fell, and they retreated, immediately looking around vigilantly. After confirming that there was no sign of Wang Baole, their faces grew dark. They approached the corpse, intending to see where the fatal wound had been.
However, one of them was very cautious. He pulled his comrade aside, raised his right hand, and waved it. A gust of wind rose up from his palm, which tore the corpse's clothes apart, revealing several Enchanted item seals that had turned bright red.
As if stimulated by the gust of wind, the small seals, which had been adjusted by Wang Baole earlier, suddenly exploded. The resulting force blasted the corpse into pieces.
"Too devious!!"
"This Wang Baole is really vicious!" The three of them gasped, rejoicing that they hadn't approached the corpse. However, at that moment, more than ten flying swords suddenly appeared in the mud around them. They formed a crisscrossing pattern and suddenly exploded. They were so fast, and because the three of them had been shocked by the explosion of the small seals, they didn't even have time to react. Their faces fell, and miserable screams rang out.
The ten flying swords whistled through the air, piercing through the bodies of the three men ….
The miserable screams of their deaths echoed out in the quiet rainforest. Quite a few of the black-clothed men heard them, and their faces flickered as they looked over.
Wang Baole also heard their screams, but didn't stop moving. He continued to crouch low, sticking close to the vegetation as he cautiously approached one of the black-robed men.
The black-robed man was alarmed by the screams of his comrade. He looked up, and Wang Baole's eyes flashed coldly. He was about to attack when he noticed that the vegetation around him was twisting and distorting. His face fell, and he tried to retreat, but it was too late.
"You've been tricked, you little bastard!" The black-robed man laughed viciously. Suddenly, six figures appeared out of thin air in the vegetation around Wang Baole. They surrounded Wang Baole, and one of them held a pearl in his hand. It was this pearl that had created some sort of illusion, concealing the six of them.
"Kill!" Including the black-robed man, there were a total of seven people. Each of them took out a Magical Item, and their Pulse Enrichment Cultivation base erupted. It was as if a small wave of Qi and blood surged through the area as they charged toward Wang Baole.
At this critical juncture, Wang Baole went all out. His speed exploded as he charged toward the black-robed man. At the same time, he waved his right hand. Immediately, ten Magical Item seals were activated and smashed into the surroundings. The surrounding people had no choice but to stop and block. Wang Baole's eyes were filled with savagery as the suction force of the devouring seed spread out from his body. The black-robed man's face changed, and Wang Baole grabbed hold of his finger and twisted it.
A miserable shriek escaped from the black-robed man's mouth. However, he was also a vicious person. Ignoring the fact that his finger had been broken, he charged head-first toward Wang Baole. Wang Baole's body swayed. Ignoring the fact that the black-robed man had slammed into his shoulder, he grabbed hold of the man's wrist and twisted it backward.
The black-robed man's forehead was covered with sweat. He roared and struggled, but Wang Baole's speed was too fast. His movements were as smooth as flowing water. He lifted his leg and kicked the man's crotch. The force behind the kick was so great that the black-robed man let out an unprecedentedly miserable shriek. He was sent flying dozens of feet away. When he landed, the pitch of his shriek changed. He rolled on the ground and wailed, as if he was better off dead.
The sight of this caused the other six people to gasp. They looked at Wang Baole with astonishment. However, Wang Baole didn't stop. Panting, he turned his head. His eyes glittered coldly as he waved his right hand. Instantly, the Magical Item seals that had been smashing into the surroundings seemed to be controlled by him. They flew toward one of the black-robed men.
At the same time, Wang Baole waved his right hand again. This time, more than ten flying swords whistled through the air toward the other black-robed men. The flying swords were too fast, and there were too many of them. The black-robed men could only dodge. However, two of them were pierced by the flying swords. Although they didn't die, they were injured.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Wang Baole increased his speed and closed in on one of the black-robed men. Ignoring the fact that he was struck in the back by another black-robed man, blood oozing out of the corners of his mouth, he closed in and broke the man's wrist. Then, he kicked him in the crotch.
Another bloodcurdling scream rang out. Blood oozed out of the corners of Wang Baole's mouth. The black-robed man's face flickered, and he was about to fall back when a powerful gravitational force appeared behind Wang Baole. The black-robed man's body lurched to a stop. In the blink of an eye, Wang Baole's vicious face was right in front of him.
"Die!" Roared Wang Baole, slamming his fist into the man's chest. Cracking sounds could be heard as he killed another black-robed man.
All of this happened too quickly. From the moment the black-robed men surrounded Wang Baole to the point where he killed three black-robed men, only a few breaths of time had passed. The remaining four black-robed men were astonished. How could they ever have imagined that Wang Baole would be so vicious? However, they were also people who lived on the edge of a blade. Vicious gleams could be seen in their eyes as they pulled out various magical items and charged toward Wang Baole.
Wang Baole narrowed his eyes. He waved his hand, and the flying swords and seals shot forward. At the same time, he charged forward to begin fighting with the four black-robed men.
