Chapter 276: Return to a Familiar Place

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Be it the Galactic Dusk Sect or the Five Generation Sky Clan, Wang Baole had always taken the stance of neutrality. He wouldn’t move against them if they didn’t offend him. Since he had entered the Mystic Luna Realm, though, he had multiple adverse encounters with the two powers.

He had already exacted his vengeance on the Galactic Dusk Sect, with interest. He had wiped out all those who had hunted him. He was unable to kill the Core Formation realm old woman. However, she couldn’t do anything to him while in the Mystic Luna Realm either. The feeling of having to watch him kill her own while helpless to stop him would only drive her into a spiraling madness.

There’s another person I have to kill who’s from the Galactic Dusk Sect, and that’s Chen Hui! An icy glint flashed across Wang Baole’s eyes. He had gotten the name of the old woman’s disciple and made the connection between the two.

Zhou Fei is another! Chen Hui was nowhere to be found at the moment. Thus, Wang Baole had his eyes set on Zhou Fei. Besides, he had wiped out most of those on his list that were from the Galactic Dusk Sect but had yet to touch anyone from the Five Generation Sky Clan.

We must be fair in how we treat people and manage all affairs. Wang Baole narrowed his eyes. He charged towards the Five Generation Sky Clan base at top speed, like an approaching meteor. The Moon Spirits and Eye Ghouls hidden within the forests of the dark side of the moon lowered their heads in a bow wherever they saw him.

Without any obstacle in sight, Wang Baole approached the Five Generation Sky Clan base at startling speed. He ran for two hours before suddenly, the deafening rumble of the sound barrier being broken thundered in the sky. A burst of Core Formation realm cultivation erupted, and the howling voice of an old woman resounded in the air.

“Wang...”

Before she could finish her words, Wang Baole, without even a turn of his head, flung out a handful of Mystic Trace Beads. They exploded instantly around her. Mist rolled outward in waves and blanketed everything in a rush, including the old woman who had finally caught up with Wang Baole.

“D*mn it! D*mn it! D*mn it!” The old lady raged. Her hair fell loose and disheveled over her shoulders. She had been so cautious and had controlled herself. Despite the eruption of her cultivation, she had kept her distance instead of launching a physical attack, relying instead on her Numinous Treasures. The Mystic Trace Beads were too powerful, however. Whatever they came into contact with it, be it a Numinous Treasure or a cultivator, would be teleported away instantly.

Wang Baole had flung out a big handful of them as well. Mist immediately surrounded the area. She had no way of avoiding it and could only be covered in mist and forcibly transported away a second time.

“Wang Baole, I’m going to kill you!” The old lady reappeared elsewhere, on the visible side of the moon. Her features were twisted into an ugly expression on her face, and blood lined the veins in her eyes. The feelings of frustration and powerlessness drove her howling mad. She stomped the ground heavily. The earth groaned as she burst forth in full speed and charged, with reddened eyes, towards the dark side of the moon once again.

Wang Baole simply turned his head and stared coldly at the spot where the old lady had stood. He turned around again and continued his approach towards the Five Generation Sky Clan base. Instead of slowing down, his pace increased.

From afar, he was like a long rainbow arrow, flying near the ground and dashing forward, through the forest, until he reached... the place he had previously come across... the Five Generation Sky Clan base!

The crater inside the base had grown multiple times larger than its previous size. The giant tree and the old Core Formation realm cultivator were nowhere to be seen, but more than a hundred Five Generation Sky Clan cultivators sat around the crater. They sat cross-legged around the crater as if guarding and stabilizing the area.

Most of the hundred-odd cultivators were at the True Breath realm, with thirty-odd Foundation Establishment realm cultivators amongst them. Zhou Fei was one of them. There were also seven cultivators at the late-stage of the Foundation Establishment realm. Every one of them was sitting cross-legged around the crater while surveying their surroundings alertly.

From time to time, loud rumblings would travel out from the large crater that they were watching over. Some form of grand ceremony seemed to be taking place within the giant crater!

Wang Baole arrived, like a piercing arrow shot from afar, whizzing past the alert eyes of the cultivators. The Foundation Establishment realm cultivators immediately sensed his arrival. They twisted their heads around and watched as Wang Baole charged out from the forest with an intense murderous air!

The reactions of the Five Generation Sky Clan cultivators were immediate. Many of the Foundation Establishment realm cultivators didn’t recognize Wang Baole at first. However, this was an important base belonging to the Five Generation Sky Clan. Most of the cultivators didn’t hesitate and attacked as soon as Wang Baole appeared.

“You have a death wish!” A late-stage Foundation Establishment realm cultivator, as well as three other mid-stage Foundation Establishment realm cultivators, were nearest Wang Baole. Without hesitation, they stood and raced towards him.

“My quarrel is with Zhou Fei. Anyone else who stands in my path... dies!” Murderous intent burned in Wang Baole’s eyes. His pace didn’t slow down. With a wave of his right hand, the Dharmic Armament saber appeared. He gripped it tightly and, with alarming speed, sent it slashing towards the four approaching cultivators!

A black tornado blasted outwards, and the crocodile appeared. The force of the saber was astounding, its sweeping blade roaring in the air and alarming the four Foundation Establishment realm cultivators who had rushed forward to stop him. The late-stage Foundation Establishment realm cultivator’s breath stilled momentarily. With a rapid forming of hand seals, he summoned numerous Numinous Treasures as well as talismans that formed a defensive barrier. The remaining three mid-stage Foundation Establishment realm cultivators followed suit hastily. It was clear, however, that they couldn’t withstand Wang Baole’s attack as well as the cultivator in the late-stage of the Foundation Establishment realm.

A deafening rumble thundered across the air. Pained cries rang out. The defenses of the three mid-stage Foundation Establishment realm cultivators were useless against the gleam of the incoming blade. They shattered and disintegrated immediately. Then, the cultivators shuddered, and their bodies were ripped into pieces as screams of terror escaped their lips!

Someone’s disembodied head flew in the air. Another had half his body blown up. The third, who had been the first to rush forward, disintegrated into a mist of blood... the late-stage Foundation Establishment realm cultivator was the only one left standing. He had put everything he had into his defense and into countering the gleam of the incoming saber. After defending against the attack, his face was drained of blood and shock colored his eyes, but he still had a burst of energy left in him. He didn’t fall back and, instead, charged forward with a burst of sudden speed, appearing right before Wang Baole. He prepared to strike.

“Scram!” Wang Baole wouldn’t have minded fighting the late-stage Foundation Establishment realm cultivator if time permitted it. In fact, he would have liked to test his limits. However, he had no time for that at the moment. With a wave of his left hand, he threw out a Mystic Trace Bead.

The bead exploded, and mist rolled outward in waves. The late-stage Foundation Establishment realm cultivator, who had rushed before Wang Baole and was about to attack, suddenly froze. Before he could react, he was enveloped by the mist and instantly teleported away!

Everything happened too quickly. It all took place within a blink of an eye before anyone else could react. Wang Baole had suddenly appeared, four people had tried to stop him, and then, instantly, one of them had vanished while the other three had died!

Everyone was immediately taken aback by the scene that had unfolded before them. They were overwhelmed by a sense of incredulity and disbelief. A myriad of emotions surged within them. This was especially so... for Zhou Fei!

“Wang Baole!” Zhou Fei widened his eyes. His breathing stopped. He could not believe his eyes. He had been summoned by the clan to guard the base. To prevent any accidents from occurring, they had their jade slips confiscated and were forbidden from having any external communications. He had no idea Wang Baole had survived and returned. Witnessing Wang Baole’s sudden appearance and the display of his alarming power, Zhou Fei was uncontrollably overwhelmed by shock and terror!

As everyone stood, stunned, and Zhou Fei let out a gasp of shock, Wang Baole’s icy stare locked onto Zhou Fei who was standing amidst the crowd.

“Zhou Fei!” Wang Baole’s lips widened into a fierce grin. At that moment, he only had eyes for Zhou Fei. Wang Baole had come here with the sole purpose of killing him, so he charged murderously towards Zhou Fei.

Zhou Fei’s head buzzed as he retreated hastily, shouting, “This is the guy the elder spoke of, the one we’re supposed to silence. Everyone, kill him. He has a Dharmic Armament with him. It’s an eighth-grade Dharmic Armament!”

As soon as the words left Zhou Fei’s lips, more than thirty people dashed out and charged towards Wang Baole. Terror fled from Zhou Fei’s face as he witnessed the scene, and savagery started to glimmer in his eyes.

“Wang Baole, you’ve traveled so far just to present us with a gift!”

“Fine, since you seek your own deaths, let’s see what my limits actually are!” More than thirty people charged at Wang Baole. Many of them were Foundation Establishment realm cultivators while a few were True Breath realm cultivators. Wang Baole narrowed his eyes and muttered under his breath.

“Enlightened!”

The heavens and earth seemed to quake. The skies transformed. An extreme, terrifying presence, from the deep ends of the expansive, vast universe seemed to have traveled across the universe and descended upon them. Its presence weighed down on the earth, rumbling in the skies and erupting suddenly. The swarm of cultivators who had been charging towards Wang Baole shuddered violently as alarm flashed across their faces...

As they stood, frozen and shaken to their cores, a blinding flash of light erupted from the Dharmic Armament and took the place where Wang Baole had stood. It transformed into a black crocodile brimming with aggression and violence that rushed straight at the crowd!

His hand rose, the blade fell, and heads rolled!

All of them slain!
