The soul's murmur was gentle and affectionate, but there was no confusion or doubt in his words. It was as if the Night Immortal King was not confused as to why his wife, Zi Yue, would do such a thing to him. Instead, he was regretting the end of a relationship after experiencing such a thing. It was as if his murmur could transform into an invisible hand that gently caressed his wife's hair with reluctance.
It was as if even though he had suffered such an unimaginable pain, he still missed his wife and was reluctant to part with her …
Wang Baole did not understand the Night Immortal King, but he vaguely remembered a sentence he had read when he was young: What is love to the depths?
There were many answers. Perhaps it was longing, perhaps it was responsibility, perhaps it was pain, or perhaps it was the disappearance of the soul.
Wang Baole was silent. He was not the Night Immortal King, so he could not sense his emotions. Hence, he only felt conflicted. He could not tell whether his pity for the Night Immortal King was due to his misfortune or because of his infatuation!
As for whether there were other emotions in the Night Immortal King's murmur, Wang Baole did not have much time to sense them, so he did not know. The reason he could see this strand of soul was because of the uniqueness of the Dark Art from the previous Heavenly Epoch. At the same time, he had used a secret technique to support it, which allowed him to see through everything.
Hence, after the murmur, Wang Baole's body shook. He could no longer see the strand of soul, only a newly born, turbid soul.
"Zi Yue?" Wang Baole's eyes were deep. He suddenly turned his head to look beside him. There, Little Missy's figure appeared from behind the mask and stood beside Wang Baole. When she looked at the Night Immortal King, her eyes were filled with bitterness and sorrow.
Wang Baole did not say anything. Instead, he quietly accompanied Little Missy. After a long time, the Night Immortal King's body shook as if he wanted to break free from Wang Baole's Dark Art. After a series of roars, Little Missy spoke softly.
"Baole, lend me one of your green lotus seeds."
Without hesitation, Wang Baole activated the devouring seed in his body. As the green lotus swayed, a lotus seed fell and appeared in Wang Baole's hand.
The lotus seed wasn't real. It was translucent and illusory. Wang Baole handed it to Little Missy.
"Thank you." Little Missy said softly. She picked up the lotus seed, and her body flickered. Instantly, she turned into a dark beam of light that shot toward the center of the Night Immortal King's brows. Once she entered, the Night Immortal King's body trembled, and he stopped struggling. Instead, he quieted down and slowly closed his eyes, as if he was sleeping.
Wang Baole looked at this scene and fell into deep thought as he waited silently. After an hour, the Night Immortal King's glabella flickered, and Little Missy's figure returned. When she appeared beside Wang Baole, her expression was one of exhaustion, and her sorrow had turned into grief and indignation.
"Zi Yue is the first friend I made after I went to the Vast Expanse Dao Palace," Little Missy murmured after a long while.
"During her wedding with Domain Lord Zhou's disciple, Chen Mofeng, I gave her a treasure that my father gave me."
"The Vast Expanse Dao Palace's number one Dao technique is called the Star-Seeding Dao. My father was full of praise when he read it. Domain Lord Zhou cultivated this technique, and it's difficult to pass it down. Only one person can inherit it in each generation, and the successor has to form a Soul Seed from the previous generation …"
"Chen Mofeng is Domain Lord Zhou's only disciple, and he's also the next Star-Seeding Dao Master of the Vast Expanse Dao Palace!" Little Missy seemed to be unable to continue.
"Baole, I know you're here to verify whether the lotus seed can control him. Unless it's absolutely necessary, please don't disturb Senior Brother Chen's slumber … I'm tired …" Little Missy's voice grew weaker and weaker until it finally dissipated and returned to the mask. She seemed to have fallen into a deep sleep, but also seemed to be confused about why people were like this.
Wang Baole stood there and sighed after a long while. His purpose for coming here was indeed as Little Missy had said. He wanted to verify the connection between the lotus seed and the Night Immortal King and see if he could control him. Although he didn't know the details of the Night Immortal King's past and didn't know what Little Missy did after entering the Night Immortal King's glabella, he could guess the answer from Little Missy's words.
"When the Never-Ending Clan invaded, Domain Lord Zhou taught his disciple, Chen Mofeng, before he died in battle. Chen Mofeng shouldered a heavy responsibility, but he was murdered by his Dao partner. His brain was ripped out and his memories were stolen. His heart was dug out and his spirit was stolen. His Dao was destroyed and his cultivation base was refined into a Soul Seed, which gave him the right to cultivate the Star-Seeding Dao." Wang Baole took a long look at the sleeping Night Immortal King.
"Zi Yue's methods were vicious, and she seemed to be guarding against the awakening of the Night Immortal King. However, she clearly didn't know that the Night Immortal King didn't hate her, only yearning …" After sensing the connection between the lotus seed and the Night Immortal King, Wang Baole sighed and put away the pity in his eyes. He turned around and left the cave. When he reappeared, he was already in the sky outside.
"The green lotus and the Night Immortal King are closely related. Perhaps … he was the previous owner of the green lotus, or perhaps … the previous owner of the green lotus wasn't the Night Immortal King, but his master, Domain Lord Zhou?" Wang Baole didn't ask Little Missy, who was obviously in low spirits, now. Instead, he flew out and looked up at the starry sky.
"The number one Dao technique of the Vast Expanse Dao Palace, huh? Even if it's extremely powerful, to be so vicious for the sake of a Divine Power … I wouldn't be able to do it." Wang Baole took another look at the place where the Night Immortal King was sleeping. In a flash, he left the place and headed straight for the lunar base.
Three days passed quickly under Wang Baole's careful inspection and supervision upon his return. After ensuring that everything was in order, Wang Baole stood in front of a large number of screens in the command center of the lunar base, gazing at the vast amounts of data flowing on them like flowing water. He gave the order to depart!
"Moon, depart!"
At Wang Baole's command, the entire lunar base's propulsion system was instantly overclocked!
The moon instantly let out an earth-shattering roar. The propulsion system created by the activated propulsion system was rapidly accumulating and increasing towards its peak. As the moon trembled, it began to slowly shift its original orbit. However, the gravitational force from Earth kept the moon firmly locked in place. Hence, it would take some time for the moon to escape until the propulsion system on the moon surpassed Earth's gravitational force.
"The lunar base's array formation has been fully activated. Test results show that it can remain stable even at the peak of the moon's speed!"
"The propulsion system formed by Spirit Science has been activated by sixty percent and is climbing towards seventy percent!"
"All conditions are normal. It is recommended that ten Anti-Spirit Bombs be detonated to increase the propulsion system on the moon!" In the command center, reports from various departments were gathered. As they reverberated, Wang Baole nodded and agreed to the detonation of the Anti-Spirit Bombs.
As a war fortress, the moon itself had stored many Anti-Spirit Bombs. Wang Baole only found out about this after taking control of the moon a few days ago. He understood that the Federation had been concealing its strength all this while. In fact, the number of Anti-Spirit Bombs had been accumulated over the years.
At this moment, with the detonation of the ten Anti-Spirit Bombs, the propulsion system on the moon was pushed to ninety percent. Everyone could vaguely feel a pulling force descending upon them.
"All conditions are normal. Requesting approval to merge with the Solar System Array Formation to give the moon a final push!"
"Approved!" Wang Baole took a deep breath. As he spoke, the fusion of the moon and the Solar System Array Formation was completed in an instant with his approval. Almost instantly, the entire moon shook violently and broke free from Earth's gravitational force. It roared and whizzed towards the starry sky!
At the same time, the departure of the moon caused an uproar on Earth. Almost everyone was shocked. Everyone looked up and saw that the moon was no longer where it used to be. It was moving further and further away. Looking at it with the naked eye, it was getting smaller and smaller!
This scene made everyone's hearts tremble. Not to mention, the tidal imbalance caused by the moon's departure from Earth's orbit caused by the moon's departure from Earth's orbit, forming huge waves that threatened to drown everything.
Fortunately, the Federation was prepared for this. The cultivators left on Earth suppressed the situation and stabilized the sea. However, the uproar caused by this scene was like a brand that was deeply engraved in the hearts of the Federation's citizens.
In addition, the Federation's news made an announcement to the entire territory at this moment. They named the person in charge of the moon base, Wang Baole, and informed the citizens that Wang Baole had been the one in charge of the entire moon's movement!
In an instant, Wang Baole's reputation in the Federation rose again. His reputation was so great that to a certain extent, it even surpassed Duan Muque's!
Just as the moon left Earth's orbit and whizzed towards the starry sky, on Mercury, the Leisurely Taoist, who was meditating and repairing the battle suit controlling the battleship, slowly opened his eyes.
He looked at the battle suit in front of him, which had been repaired to its greatest extent. He raised his head and looked in the direction of Venus. A deep glint slowly flashed across his eyes. A moment later, his orders were spread throughout the Dao Palace!
"Destroy Venus!"
