To the disciples of the Dark Sect, the Underworld was a world that was completely under their control. Just like how heaven and earth were divided into yin and yang, the disciples of the Dark Sect in the Underworld could not only graze souls but also cultivate there.
The special Dark Death Qi in the Underworld was a great supplement to the Dark Sect that was comparable to Spirit Qi. It allowed their cultivation to blend yin and yang, far surpassing that of other sects.
Back then, every disciple of the Dark Sect had a fixed qualification to enter the Underworld to cultivate. However, there were still requirements for one's cultivation. One had to be at least at the Planet realm. Therefore, Wang Baole had only heard about it in the Dark Dream, but he had never entered it.
After the fall of the Dark Sect, the collapse of the Heavenly Dao had caused the Underworld to wither to a certain extent. Coupled with the seal by the Never-Ending Clan, it had been a long time since any disciples of the Dark Sect had come to the Underworld.
But at the same time, because no one had come for so long, the density of the Dark Qi in the entire Never-Ending Dao Domain's Dark Realm had reached an astonishing level. Although because of the death of the Heavenly Dao, dead souls at the Planet realm and above couldn't enter the Dark Realm, causing the entire Dark Realm to lose its source, but to Wang Baole now, the density of the Dark Qi was still … a great supplement!
Therefore, in an instant, when he sensed that this was the Underworld that the Dark Sect had mentioned and that the Dark Death Qi had nourished his broken body, Wang Baole's first thought was that everything would be perfect if he could let his body sink into this place.
"What a pity …" Wang Baole was very regretful, but he was looking forward to it even more. According to the Dark Art that he had mastered, once he reached the Planet realm, he could open the Underworld and let his body enter.
With that thought in mind, Wang Baole's spirits were lifted once again. Stepping on the statue, he raised his right hand and formed a series of hand seals. Instantly, the surrounding fog surged towards him, and a vortex formed with him at the center began to spin wildly.
As it spun, large amounts of Dark Death Qi rushed towards Wang Baole amidst the cheers and worship. They surged madly into Wang Baole's body through his seven orifices, his hair, and every inch of his skin.
This was the aura of death that would frighten other people and make them want to avoid it. However, to Wang Baole, it was a great tonic in this world.
As he absorbed the energy, the cracks on his Ultimate Celestial Body under the Emperor Armor started to heal at a visible speed. Not only that, as the Death Energy entered Wang Baole's body, although his cultivation level didn't increase, it seemed to be condensed!
Previously, Wang Baole had lost his accumulated understanding of cultivation due to the rapid increase in his cultivation base. As a result, he couldn't fully utilize his battle prowess even though his cultivation base was at the late-stage of the Spirit Immortal realm. But now … with the replenishment of the Nether Death Aura, all the side effects caused by the sudden increase in his cultivation base were rapidly being compensated!
As it was being compensated, a majestic wave of cultivation erupted from his body. There was also a sense of strength and power that spread from every inch of his flesh and blood, gathering in his consciousness. Wang Baole couldn't help but raise his head and let out a long howl.
As he howled, the surrounding vortex rumbled again. More Nether Death Aura surged over as if there was no end to it. It was also as if the Nether Death Aura here had sentience and was unwilling to be immersed in this place for countless years. It wanted to become a part of Wang Baole and follow him out to see the light of day again!
Hence, amidst the rumbling that sounded like heavenly thunder, the vortex grew bigger and bigger. All the cracks on Wang Baole's body were completely healed at this moment. No matter if it was his body or the surface, there were no more injuries. His cultivation base seemed to be at the late-stage of the Spirit Immortal realm, but … due to the fusion of Yin and Yang, it wasn't an exaggeration to say that it was as thick as a boulder!
It could even be said that in the current Never-Ending Dao Domain, there might be some Spirit Immortals who could reach Wang Baole's current cultivation base in terms of the thickness of their cultivation base. However … these people were basically geniuses from huge factions and family clans.
Only a family clan like that could nurture a disciple of such a standard and see him as a seed that would support the family clan in the future. Other than that, in the entire Never-Ending Dao Domain, there weren't many people like Wang Baole who could forge a solid foundation with the fusion of dragons and tigers!
In reality, Wang Baole didn't know that this was also the intention of his senior brother, Chen Qing. Back then, Chen Qing had brought Wang Baole out of the Federation to the only hidden gathering place of the Underworld Sect. He wanted to let Wang Baole use the power of the Underworld to create this kind of boulder soul after Wang Baole became a Planet.
Although there had been an accident along the way, and Wang Baole hadn't reached the Planet realm yet, it wasn't much different from Chen Qing's plan. This was because Wang Baole, who had sensed the change in his cultivation base, had tasted the benefits even though he didn't know about his senior brother's arrangement. At the same time, he also compared himself to the late-stage Spirit Immortal he had met during the mission in Blazing Laozu.
With this comparison, Wang Baole immediately realized that he might have been about the same level as that late-stage Spirit Immortal if he didn't have all the supplementary Dharma treasures. Now that he had absorbed the Nether Death aura, he was like a mix of dragons and tigers … Even without the Emperor Armor, Dharma treasures, and supplementary Dharma treasures, he could kill that late-stage Spirit Immortal of the Never-Ending Clan with just his own strength!
Moreover, he was confident that the process wouldn't take long. Hence, Wang Baole instantly decided that he would definitely come to the Underworld again when his cultivation base reached the Planet realm. He would gather the Nether Death aura again here and stabilize his cultivation base. At the same time, he would constantly surpass others from the starting line.
"Now that I'm fully equipped … is it possible for me to fight an early-stage Planet realm expert?" Wang Baole was excited. Because he hadn't fought before, he could only weigh the pros and cons in his heart. The final answer was …
"According to the judgment of that Never-Ending Clan Planet realm expert in Blazing Laozu's mission … Now that I'm wearing the Emperor Armor, even if I can't beat him, it's already impossible for an early-stage Planet realm expert to kill me!"
With this understanding, Wang Baole laughed loudly. At the same time, he felt his body's absorption of the Nether Death aura gradually slowing down. He knew that he had reached his limit. If he continued, he didn't want to come into contact with the consequences of the imbalance between Yin and Yang. Hence, after a flash of light in his eyes, Wang Baole decisively gave up on absorbing the Nether Death aura. When he lowered his head to look at the statue, he had the intention of keeping it.
However, this statue was very strange. It couldn't be kept in a storage bag. Although Wang Baole felt that it was a pity, it wasn't impossible to leave this statue in the Underworld. Hence, he formed hand seals with both hands and used the Dark Art to seal the statue again. With his own Dark Art sealing waves, he would be able to find it instantly the next time he came. Wang Baole took a deep breath and looked up at the void above.
"It's time to leave!"
At that thought, Wang Baole narrowed his eyes. Although his body had recovered, the Emperor Armor still didn't disappear. At that moment, his cultivation suddenly erupted. A wave of cultivation that seemed to be at the late-stage Spirit Immortal realm but was thick enough to shock and astonish those of the same realm rose from his body. With the support of the Emperor Armor, it caused the wave of cultivation to erupt again. At first glance, there was basically no difference except that Wang Baole didn't have the unique pressure that a Planet realm cultivator's body would have when he swallowed a planet.
With this eruption, his body shot up into the sky like a shooting star. His speed became faster and faster, and the Underworld fog around him swirled as if it was sending him off. This caused Wang Baole's speed to increase even more. When he reached his maximum speed, an earth-shattering boom reverberated in all directions. It was as if the void had exploded, and a vortex that led to the outside world appeared in front of Wang Baole at his maximum speed.
Without any hesitation, Wang Baole charged forward and stepped into the vortex. He left the Divine Eye civilization's Ninth Netherworld. When he reappeared … he was already in the Divine Eye civilization's Divine Eye main planet!
The starry sky rumbled, and waves of energy spread out in all directions. They could be seen from far away. If this had happened in the past, it would have attracted the attention of the cultivators of the three greater sects stationed outside the Divine Eye main planet. Even the cultivators on the Divine Eye main planet could see the changes in the starry sky when they looked up.
But now … the entire Divine Eye main planet was silent. The armies of the three greater sects that were stationed outside … had been reduced to dust and debris that floated silently in the starry sky …
A head with widened eyes filled with despair slowly floated from nearby to Wang Baole and slowly swam past him!
