Just as Wang Baole retreated and Zi Luo approached, the Planet realm cultivator snorted coldly from within the bronze lamp in He Yunzi's hand.
As the sound rang out, the bronze lamp's flame grew brighter. Through some unknown means, the Planet realm cultivator's suppressive aura spread out from within the lamp. It enveloped the surroundings in an instant, forming a seal that enveloped Wang Baole!
From afar, it looked like a translucent cover covering the heavens and the earth. It limited the area around Wang Baole to about a thousand feet in diameter!
This seal not only limited Wang Baole's range of movement, but it also separated him from the imperial mausoleum's entrance!
This scene caused Wang Baole's expression to change once again. If the curses in his heart could be heard, they would definitely shake the heavens.
"That son of a bitch, Xie Haiyang, just you wait. Damn you … Since this unscrupulous merchant is willing to take advantage of me, he must have sensed that I'm cultivating the Demonic Eye Art. He also knows that I won't feel any repulsion when I'm here. Everything that happened before was just an act. This unscrupulous merchant is cunning. He must know how many red crystals I have, so he's looking for an opportunity to make me beg him for help and then rip me off!"
As he retreated, Wang Baole's mind was completely clear. However, he also knew that this wasn't the time to think about this. Furthermore, he didn't want to fall into a trap and suffer the pain of being ripped off. Hence, as his mind raced, he increased his speed once again. Within this limited range of a thousand feet, he rapidly dodged, trying to avoid Zi Luo's attack.
While Wang Baole was in danger, he guessed that the unscrupulous merchant, Xie Haiyang, had not only sold him information at a high price, but also fulfilled the wishes of the Divine Eye civilization's old emperor and fulfilled the demands of the Violet Gold civilization. At this moment, in the Starry Sky Market far away from the Divine Eye civilization, Xie Haiyang, who was listening to his subordinate's report, sneezed.
"Someone's cursing me!" Xie Haiyang coughed. He raised his right hand and pinched his fingers. After a few breaths, a look of understanding appeared in his eyes.
"It must be that fatty Wang Baole cursing me!"
"Young Master … you clearly saw it. Why are you still pretending to do divination?" The person who reported to Xie Haiyang was an old man in a luxurious robe. This old man clearly had a high status. At that moment, he was sitting there with a mocking look in his eyes as he spoke with a smile.
Xie Haiyang blinked a few times and then looked at the jade slip on the table in front of him, as well as the image floating above it ….
This was the scene of the Divine Eye civilization's imperial mausoleum. From the angle, it didn't seem to be from Wang Baole's point of view, but rather … from the perspective of the Divine Eye civilization's old emperor!
Even so, the overall picture was very clear. Even the sound was not weakened at all. This scene made Xie Haiyang feel a little embarrassed. He thought to himself, I really don't know the art of divine divination, but I can't pretend for a while.
Noticing Xie Haiyang's awkwardness, the old man withdrew his smile and asked after thinking for a while.
"Young Master, should we provide some help to Wang Baole?"
This time, he probably won't need my jade slip to open the door to the imperial mausoleum on his own. The jade slip I gave him wasn't meant to be used like that. It was meant for him to ask for help. In addition, after he enters the imperial mausoleum … I can still extort more money from him. Without my help, given his current abilities, he won't be able to obtain any good fortune. "Xie Haiyang smiled confidently, took out a voice transmission jade slip, and placed it beside him.
"All we have to do is wait. He'll definitely ask for help so that I can help him break open the seal on the planet and escape!"
While Xie Haiyang took out the jade slip, inside the Divine Eye civilization's imperial mausoleum, Wang Baole was rapidly retreating. His mind was already spinning as he thought of several ways to resolve this crisis.
However … Wang Baole was unwilling to give up on any of these methods. His heart ached. After all, whether it was the cursed jade slip from Inferno Laozu or the planet palm in his sea of consciousness that was nourished by Eternal Star fire, neither was worth it.
He only had one of the former. Although he could use the latter two or three times, he was still short on time. If he used it too early, he was afraid that it wouldn't be powerful enough. He would need to pay a higher price to achieve the desired effect.
As for the eruption of Eternal Star fire, that was even more so. That was a method of mutual destruction. If he used it, he would suffer even greater losses.
"Are you forcing me to ask that f * cking Xie Haiyang for help?!" There was a struggle in Wang Baole's eyes. His body swayed, and he barely managed to dodge Zi Luo's attack. Zi Luo was getting impatient as well. Even with his cultivation, he was able to limit the scope of the battle. However, Wang Baole managed to dodge his attacks several times. Although the main reason was that he needed to capture Wang Baole alive, this still made him feel embarrassed in front of the sect lord.
"There's no need to capture him alive. We can kill him and use his corpse as a sacrifice!" The Planet realm cultivator in the bronze lamp had obviously sensed all of this. Therefore, he immediately spoke in a cold, sinister voice.
"Understood!" When Zi Luo heard this, he smiled ferociously. He lifted his right hand, and a large amount of black Qi gushed out from his body and rushed to his right hand. In the blink of an eye, it formed a crocodile's head above his palm. The head grew rapidly and enveloped Zi Luo's body, turning him into the crocodile's head!
The black Qi swirled around the head, and it was possible to tell that it was rotten. There was also an indescribably demonic aura about it. As soon as it appeared, the space within the seal began to distort. Terrifying ripples emanated out from it, and Wang Baole's mind was filled with an intense sensation of deadly crisis.
However … in that moment of crisis, Wang Baole's eyes suddenly flickered with a strange light. In his mind, the words of the Planet realm cultivator appeared.
"Use my corpse as a sacrifice? Corpse … sacrifice … "The light in Wang Baole's eyes grew even brighter as a bold idea appeared in his mind.
"I'll take a gamble. If it doesn't work out, I'll give that motherf * cker Xie Haiyang a chance to make money!"
With that thought, a hint of madness flashed across Wang Baole's eyes. He let out a low growl and stopped dodging. Instead, without any protection, he charged towards Zi Luo, who was approaching him. It seemed like he was seeking his own death.
Zi Luo was taken aback by this, but his eyes flashed with murderous intent. He increased his speed, closing in on Wang Baole in the blink of an eye. He laughed viciously, and the crocodile opened its gaping maw and lunged at Wang Baole.
Just as Wang Baole was about to be swallowed up, he made no attempt to defend himself. He looked as if he wanted to die together with the crocodile. When the old Emperor saw this, his face fell, and for the first time, a look of panic appeared in his eyes.
Xie Haiyang, who was watching everything from the old Emperor's perspective, was equally shocked. He had been sitting there proudly at first, but then he shot to his feet.
"Oh no!!"
Almost as soon as the words left his mouth, a roar echoed out from within Wang Baole's body. The Demonic Eye Incantation had been activated by Wang Baole on its own. Behind him, an enormous eye appeared, within which could be seen the face of an old man.
This old man was none other than the will hidden within the Demonic Eye Incantation!
Wang Baole's previous thought hadn't been about the fact that he was an essence body. Instead, he had thought of something when he heard the words' corpse 'and' sacrifice '!
And that was … there was someone here who didn't want him dead the most. That was the old Emperor and … the will of the Divine Eye civilization's Laozu in his body!
Wang Baole knew what the old Emperor was plotting. The more he knew, the more he knew that even though the old Emperor wanted him to be severely injured and weakened, he didn't want him to be captured. He didn't want him to die here.
"That's why … Xie Haiyang's self-proclaimed intelligence can be used by me as well. I can use him to my advantage and break out of this situation!
"The high officials' autobiographies once said that one should never underestimate anyone. Xie Haiyang … you've made a mistake. That is … you've underestimated me, Wang Baole!"
As those thoughts surfaced in Wang Baole's mind, the elder in the giant eye behind Wang Baole had a look of frustration in his eyes. He didn't want to attack now, but he was forced into a corner and could only roar out two words!
"Divine Eye!"
Zi Luo's entire body shuddered as soon as he said those two words. Countless eyes appeared on his crocodile-like body. They self-destructed as soon as they appeared, causing Zi Luo to scream in agony. It was as if he was hallucinating, causing him to lose track of Wang Baole's true location. He charged in another direction, killing Wang Baole directly.
At the same time, the eyes of the old Emperor outside the seal turned bloodshot. He leaped to his feet, a crazed expression on his face as he roared.
"Divine Eye!"
As he roared, countless eyes instantly appeared on his body, and they all self-destructed. His body also exploded, and his flesh and blood instantly turned into a huge blood-red eye that charged toward the seal. Amid the booming sounds, the old Emperor used some sort of technique to rapidly melt away and corrupt the seal formed by the planet's divine sense. The seal shook violently, and a crack appeared on it.
A strange light flashed in Wang Baole's eyes the moment the fissure appeared. He made use of the opportunity to retreat and dashed towards the fissure. Before he stepped into the fissure, he glanced at the flesh and blood outside the seal, and a hint of mockery appeared in his eyes!
"Wang Baole …." Xie Haiyang had already risen to his feet in the starry sky. He could sense the derision in Wang Baole's eyes, and his breathing quickened. After a long moment of silence, he slowly sat back down.
"You really are something!"
