The Divine Eye main planet's atmosphere was similar to Earth's in some ways, but there were also differences. Perhaps it was due to the difference in environment and void matter, but the Divine Eye main planet's atmosphere was extremely dense. Unless one was at the Soul Conduit realm, one's divine sense would not be able to cover a large area.
It was also because of this that the battleships entering and exiting the planet seemed to be blocked from the outside world within the atmosphere. However, although the Divine Eye civilization had a habit of plundering, and there were cases of people killing each other for treasures, it was all done in secret. Furthermore, it mostly happened between cultivators. Although there were cases of extremely vile acts like plundering battleships, once they happened, they would be severely punished and wanted. Thus, such incidents gradually stopped happening.
At that moment, Wang Baole, who was hidden within the atmosphere, looked around. There were many battleships entering and exiting the Divine Eye Planet. At first glance, it was difficult to determine which one was the most valuable. This was especially so for the battleships of the various sects of the Divine Eye civilization. They were all different, and their exteriors were also concealed. Thus, unless one took them apart to examine them or used one's divine sense to scan them, it was very difficult to determine their exact value.
This made it even more difficult. After all, although Wang Baole's combat strength was strong, his divine sense was not at the level where it could cover the entire sky with a single sweep. Furthermore, he was not at the level where he could clearly see everything without exposing himself. Thus, to a certain extent, the plundering this time mostly relied on luck.
When it came to luck, Wang Baole felt that the donkey was very capable. After all, this fellow had eaten so many random things and had not died. Furthermore, it had eaten a lot of resources. Based on its instincts, it had a much higher chance of finding a battleship that returned with a full load.
At the same time, in theory, a battleship returning from an expedition had a high chance of being fully loaded. Thus, although it was luck, Wang Baole felt that there was still some skill involved.
"I have both luck and skill. Son, the rest is up to you. Hurry up and find me a battleship!" Wang Baole coughed. He patted the donkey, who had a confused look on its face when he pulled it out of his storage bracelet.
The donkey had a confused expression. It first looked at Wang Baole, then at the battleships entering and exiting the planet. Finally, it looked at Wang Baole with an aggrieved expression. It opened its mouth and was about to bray.
"If you find it, I'll give you a share. If you can't find it … you can continue to stay in there and starve!" Wang Baole glared at him. As soon as the words left his mouth, the donkey gasped, and tears welled up in its eyes. After a long moment, it turned its head, looking as if it had been wronged. Viciousness gleamed in its eyes as it stared at the battleships off in the distance. It didn't even blink.
It was as if in its eyes, the battleships entering and leaving were all lumps of food. What it needed to do now was to find the most delicious and plump one among them.
"You can smell it from so far away?" Wang Baole was curious, but as soon as he started to wonder, the donkey started to bray excitedly.
"Son, son!!" As it brayed, it lifted its hooves and pointed at a battleship that had just returned from the Outer Realm. As if worried that it wasn't pointing clearly, the donkey snorted and spat out a cloud of fog. The fog instantly condensed and transformed into the shape of the battleship.
Wang Baole quickly looked up, but when he did, he was suspicious. The battleship looked very ordinary. There was nothing special about it, and it was only half the size of the Holy Crest Sect's battleship.
It wasn't fast either. It was mixed in with seven or eight other battleships and looked very ordinary. There were even some areas that were damaged. It didn't look like it had been damaged by external forces, but more like natural wear and tear due to overuse. It was as if no one had the money to repair it.
As Wang Baole observed from afar, there were dozens of cultivators inside the battleship. Five or six of them were Yuanying Realm cultivators, while the weakest among them was at the late-stage Core Formation Realm. All of them looked relaxed and excited. A few of them took out fist-sized black stones from their storage bags from time to time, admiring them as if they were treasures.
"We've struck it big this time. I didn't expect that there would be a small civilization with an astonishing amount of Star Illusory Stone hidden in the vast Weeping Mark Galaxy!"
"This is a Star Illusory Stone. It's a necessary material to build a fifth-order battleship. Just a fist-sized stone like this can be exchanged for an eighth-order heavy weapon!"
"The strongest person in that small civilization is only at the Core Formation Realm. How could they deserve such a precious resource? They actually dared to resist. They asked for it when we massacred their entire civilization. It's a pity that their body structure is different from ours. Otherwise, we could have captured them and made them into cultivation vessels."
When someone mentioned the strongest person in that small civilization, it caused some people to laugh. Many of the cultivators present laughed loudly. Now that they were about to return to their sect on the mother planet, they were more relaxed.
"Be careful. We've gained a lot this time. If anything unexpected happens, we won't be able to bear the consequences. Yun Linzi, control the output of your spiritual source. Don't be too conspicuous. Now is not the time to burst out with speed. Once we enter the atmosphere, we'll accelerate at full speed!" As the cultivators laughed, their leader, an old man at the peak of the Yuanying Realm, frowned and shouted in a low voice.
"Elder, we've already returned to the mother planet. What could possibly happen? You should take a rest too. Our harvest this time should be enough for you to have enough resources to break through your cultivation. Let us congratulate you in advance!"
"That's right, Elder. Don't worry. Our warship is perfectly hidden. It looks ordinary and there's natural wear and tear on the outside. There's nothing special about it. No one will have any ideas about it. Moreover, something as despicable as robbing a warship hasn't happened for many years. Also, the sect's reinforcements should be arriving soon.
Don't worry. "The elder at the peak of the Yuanying Realm thought for a moment and relaxed. When he thought about how he had enough resources for a breakthrough, he couldn't help but feel excited.
However … these cultivators who had just massacred a small civilization and returned with a full load had no idea that outside their warship, in the clouds, there were two figures — one big and one small — who were staring at them.
Within the clouds, Wang Baole narrowed his eyes and carefully sized up the seemingly ordinary warship. He asked the donkey in a low voice.
"Son, are you sure it's delicious?"
"Son!" The donkey looked determined. Its four hooves were even trembling, as if it couldn't control its appetite and was about to charge out.
"Alright, I'll trust you this time. Let's rob it!" Wang Baole's eyes flashed. He didn't think about the other warships anymore. Instead, he hid himself and secretly followed the warship.
Not long after, this seemingly ordinary warship, which seemed to have suffered natural wear and tear, slowly distanced itself from the other warships around it. It gradually spread out and entered the main Divine Eye planet. It entered the atmosphere, and at that moment, its body was covered by a thick layer of clouds.
The moment it entered the atmosphere, Wang Baole's eyes flashed. He had been staring at the warship all this while. His peak Yuanying cultivation spread throughout his body. Coupled with his astral Yuanying, he immediately surpassed his original cultivation level and gained the speed of a Soul Conduit realm cultivator. His entire body transformed into a long beam of light and shot toward the warship like a shooting star!
Almost at the same time that Wang Baole's speed exploded, the warship also accelerated. It was at least three times faster than before as it shot through the atmosphere.
"Hmm? They sensed me? " Wang Baole was stunned. He didn't have time to think about it. He didn't bother hiding. His speed exploded again, and his divine sense spread out like an invisible storm. It directly enveloped the speeding warship, ignoring the warship's defenses. In an instant, it penetrated the warship and saw the dozens of people on board!
The moment Wang Baole's divine sense swept over the warship, a shrill alarm sounded. The cultivators who were swept by his divine sense were all relaxed and chatting a moment ago. But in the next moment, their expressions changed drastically. The Yuanying cultivators, in particular, were horrified and cried out in alarm.
"Soul Conduit realm?!"
"Hurry up! Something's wrong!"
They had heard the alarm of the battleship and sensed the arrival of the divine sense. Only a Soul Conduit realm cultivator could have such a divine sense that could penetrate the battleship in the atmosphere. Furthermore, the purpose of such a blatant investigation was obvious to these people!
"No Soul Conduit realm cultivators? In other words, their sudden acceleration wasn't because they sensed me? " Noticing the changes in their expressions, Wang Baole's heart suddenly raced. In that instant, he realized that he might really have run into a fat sheep this time!
Amidst his excitement, Wang Baole deliberately changed his voice and started laughing maniacally. With a flick of his body, he transformed into an ethereal and transparent form. Like a demonic spirit, he pounced towards the fleeing battleship. As he passed through the battleship, his voice transformed from his Divine Sense exploded in the minds of all the cultivators on the battleship like a tidal wave.
"Don't move! This is a robbery!"
