Wang Baole had made the right bet!
The Leisurely Taoist was just a puppet. What he thought wasn't important. What was important was Zi Yue's will. In Zi Yue's opinion, Wang Baole's importance had indeed surpassed that of the Federation after losing that finger!
After all … destroying the Federation civilization was just a trial she had put on the Leisurely Taoist under the Star-Seeding Dao. She had left it to the Leisurely Taoist to complete the task himself while she observed and cultivated.
It was like holding the string of a kite and observing the trajectory of its fate. She didn't care whether the Federation was destroyed or not. Instead, Wang Baole had threatened her core. She had sensed that she couldn't attack directly. Therefore, no matter how she looked at it, she couldn't let Wang Baole leave!
At the same time, Zi Yue was in a difficult position. Her casting of the technique on the Leisurely Taoist was a trial of the Star-Seeding Dao and also a part of her cultivation. That was why she had prepared for so long. Once she observed the entire process from the Leisurely Taoist, her Star-Seeding Dao would advance to the next level.
Therefore, she couldn't give up. Besides, this was also her only chance to find the item that was extremely important to her cultivation of the Star-Seeding Dao. It was also the item that Chen Mofeng had hidden.
At the same time … according to her original plan, after the Federation civilization was destroyed, the power gained from sacrificing an entire galaxy would be the nourishment for her rise. She would enter the ancient greenish-bronze sword and imprint the Star-Seeding Dao on the slumbering Laozu. Then, she would use the stars of the Solar System as the foundation for her advancement. She would be able to reach the Eternal Star realm in a short period of time!
Her plan was perfect and she was on her way to success. However … Wang Baole had appeared!
If it weren't for the fact that she had sacrificed too much, and that it was extremely important to her, especially when it was time to reap the rewards, Zi Yue would definitely have avoided the number one Divine King's blade and chosen to leave. But now … she could only grit her teeth and carry on!
It was not her purpose to kill Wang Baole, but to capture him alive and strip him of his karma. That was also the chance for her to get rid of the karma that she had deduced with the help of the Star-Seeding Path!
Therefore, under her will, the Leisurely Taoist's eyes flashed. He ignored the battle on Mars and chased after Wang Baole with a sway of his body. In an instant, the two of them disappeared from the Martian territory, speeding toward the depths of the starry sky.
With their astonishing speed, no one would be able to see this battle. Even the Solar System Array Formation was unable to condense its power over a long distance due to the previous few times it had dispersed its power. Therefore, with the departure of the two, everyone on Mars and Earth could only wait anxiously.
Fortunately … the battle on Mars had also calmed down with the departure of the Leisurely Taoist. Everyone understood that the crux of the battle was no longer here, but the battle that was far away at this moment!
If Wang Baole won, the Federation would win, and the civilization would survive. If not … everything would turn to ashes.
At this moment, Wang Baole, who bore the burden of the survival of the civilization war, was also in an extremely difficult situation. Blood was constantly flowing from the corners of his mouth. He had also unleashed his maximum speed, but the Leisurely Taoist behind him was not slow either. This made it difficult for Wang Baole to widen the distance between them.
Even though he kept trying to respond to the summons from Pluto as he sped forward, on the one hand, he was too far away. On the other hand, although he could feel the summons, he seemed to be limited by his cultivation level. It was difficult for him to establish a connection, let alone shake it!
"The distance is easy to solve, but what about my cultivation level?!" Wang Baole was anxious, especially when he sensed that the Leisurely Taoist behind him had used some kind of mystical ability to increase his speed explosively. This made him even more anxious.
He knew very well that if this continued, the Leisurely Taoist would soon catch up to him. When that time came, he would not have the strength to fight back. He was afraid that the only outcome would be death!
"Jupiter!" Wang Baole's eyes were filled with determination. Going to Jupiter would shorten the distance between them, and on the other hand, he was lacking in his cultivation level. The only thing he could think of was to make use of the Yuanying characteristics of the stars and use the power of the planets to support himself!
At this thought, the Netherworld Sampan beneath his feet instantly burst into flames. He spared no expense and directly traversed through the starry sky, as though he was teleporting. When he appeared, he was not far away from Jupiter.
This kind of teleportation came with a heavy price. Wang Baole immediately coughed up blood, and his body almost collapsed from the strain. At the same time, the Netherworld Sampan burned and became much more blurry. It was as though all that was left of it was a thin cloud of mist!
The Netherworld Sampan had not been fully repaired to begin with, so it was obvious that it had suffered great damage. However, Wang Baole couldn't care less. The moment he appeared, he once again controlled the Netherworld Sampan and continued to approach Jupiter. Although there was still some distance between them, Wang Baole's Yuanying was clearly much more active now that he was there.
In fact, the connection between him and Pluto was much clearer than before. This gave Wang Baole confidence.
"Jupiter alone might not be enough …" A hint of madness appeared in Wang Baole's eyes. He thought of a place where his Yuanying could be strengthened to a terrifying degree.
Although he didn't know how big the gap between him and the Leisurely Taoist was, based on Wang Baole's analysis, he might not be able to defeat the Leisurely Taoist when he arrived at Jupiter, but he might be able to shake Pluto!
Just as his Netherworld Sampan was burning and increasing its speed to close the distance between him and Jupiter, a rumbling sound came from the starry sky behind him. The Leisurely Taoist was also traversing through the starry sky. When he appeared, the Leisurely Taoist's expression was already impatient. His body wriggled, and a large number of vines appeared on his back. They crisscrossed and weaved into a pair of huge wings. With a flap, a series of ripples appeared in the starry sky. His speed increased exponentially once again. As he charged out, the Leisurely Taoist made a series of hand seals, and dozens of runes appeared on his body.
"Wang Baole, the Solar System isn't big. Where do you think you can run to?" As the Leisurely Taoist's voice rang out, the runes on his body separated and transformed into seals that floated in the air. Then, with a speed that surpassed the Leisurely Taoist's own, they shot toward Wang Baole. Because the distance between them continued to shrink, three of the seals caught up with Wang Baole. Before they could even get close, they exploded!
The resulting shockwaves were so powerful that they could destroy the Heavens and the Earth. They kicked up a storm in the starry sky, and the shockwaves reached Wang Baole.
Wang Baole didn't even look back. He waved his hand, and the Netherworld Robe around him expanded once again. Blood oozed out of it as it resisted the shockwaves. However, he didn't slow down at all. With the help of the burning Netherworld Sampan, he got closer and closer to Jupiter. The Yuanying in his body grew more and more active.
His connection with Pluto also grew stronger. He could faintly sense in his mind that the call from Pluto came from an object. As for what that object was, he couldn't clearly sense it.
"It's still not enough!" Thought Wang Baole, his eyes narrowed. Gritting his teeth, he shot forward, allowing the Leisurely Taoist's seals to explode again and again. His injuries seemed to grow more serious each time, but as he got closer, and the Yuanying in his body grew more vigorous, his life force spread out, causing his injuries to heal almost immediately.
When Jupiter was completely visible, the Yuanying in Wang Baole's body opened its eyes. Deep within them, a soul-stirring expression could be seen. Strange power emanated out from Jupiter, pouring into Wang Baole's body from all directions. The feeling of power exceeded anything he had ever felt before, and it caused Wang Baole's eyes to shine with an intense light.
Although Wang Baole was doing his best to suppress it, the Leisurely Taoist could sense it. His expression flickered, and he suddenly had a bad premonition. However, there was no time to think. Eyes shining with determination, he lifted his right hand and tore off his left arm.
"Divine Star Transformation!"
As soon as the words left his mouth, the left arm that he had torn off started wriggling. In the blink of an eye, it transformed into a black stick insect that was a thousand feet long. It shrieked and leaped, traversing the void and opening its mouth wide in Wang Baole's direction. Even though Wang Baole's Dark Robe had spread out again, it couldn't completely stop the stick insect from piercing through it!
But the moment the black stick insect closed in, Wang Baole's eyes flashed with savagery. Overlapping shadows appeared on his body, and clones appeared one after another. There were more than ten clones in total, and they didn't charge at the stick insect. Instead, they used self-detonation as propulsion to increase their speed. With a boom, the self-detonation of the clones caused Wang Baole's speed to increase again. He neared Jupiter and entered the asteroid belt between Jupiter and Mars!
This was Wang Baole's target. It was also the only place he could think of that could increase his power to a terrifying degree!
That was because there were hundreds of thousands of asteroids here. At the same time, right in front of Wang Baole, there was a rather special planet. It was the planet that had been discovered by the Federation a thousand years ago … Ceres. It was also the only dwarf planet in the asteroid belt!
Here, the Stellar Nascent Soul would erupt with unprecedented brilliance and display its unparalleled glory!
