Chapter 783: 783

Chapter 783: Baole Comes Out of Seclusion!

The cry was extremely shrill . Even on the Ice Phoenix Legion’s battlefield, it was extremely piercing and caused everyone in the surroundings to pause . The entire battlefield even went silent for a while…

Everyone’s gazes unwittingly landed on the shrieking Lord Ling Tao . Whether it be the disintegration of his arms, the blood spurting out, the collapse of his chest and Dharmic Artifacts, or the cracking of the black ice cubes at his feet, they all made the scene look… extremely horrifying!

This continued until Lord Ling Tao crashed onto the ground with a thump, cracking many of the original bluestone bricks . As blood spurted everywhere, Lord Ling Tao, who had barely survived, struggled while an intense confusion appeared in his eyes . As he looked at Wang Baole, various thoughts raced in his mind .

What the hell is this! He was utterly confused . Everything that just happened felt extremely unreal . Just a moment ago, he was still in high spirits . He felt that, after reaching the False Immortal realm, he could definitely lead his army to become one of the top ten armies and become all-powerful .

But in the next moment… All he did was try to spear Wang Baole, but for some reason, he created an inexplicably horrifying storm that threatened to absorb him without giving him any time to react .

There must be something wrong… This was Lord Ling Tao’s final thought . As this thought appeared in his mind, he spat out a large mouthful of blood and collapsed . It was unknown whether he was dead or alive .

In reality, his attack just now was filled with an intense intent to kill Wang Baole . To prevent others from gossiping, he prepared a killing blow . After all, he could claim that it was manslaughter . Hence, he used all his might in that attack, causing the 170% reflection of his attack by Wang Baole’s Divine Justice Shield to exceed what he could withstand and making him unable to defend against it .

At that moment, as it was difficult to determine whether Lord Ling Tao was dead or alive, the mighty figures from the top-ranked armies watching the battle, and… the likes of the Divine Sovereign Justice Sect’s elder, all had changes in their expressions . Countless gazes coming from all directions gathered onto Wang Baole and took special notice of his Divine Justice Shield!

As for these mighty figures, it was fine that they didn’t take notice previously . However, once they did, these mighty figures, who came from different places, all started showing weird expressions . After taking a close look, it was obvious that the Divine Justice Shield had already reached level seven . The huge change that happened just now was obviously formed via an unknown method .

But all of this wasn’t the reason why their expressions were weird . What truly made them react that way was the fact that the pervertedly strong and previously unseen Divine Justice Shield was purposely hidden such that it only looked like a level three .

“How sneaky!”

“This guy… we better not piss him off!”

“He leads people to their demise without feeling remorseful!”

As thoughts rolled around in these mighty figures’ hearts, Wang Baole also faintly felt the intangible gazes from beyond the heavens gather onto him . He felt a lot of stress in his heart, as well as where the problem lay . So, as he was helpless, he was also nervous . He looked at Lord Ling Tao, whose life or death was unknown, then looked at the ugly Divine Justice Shield in front of him . Finally, he coughed and swept his gaze towards the surrounding crowd that was staring with eyes wide and mouths agape . Showing a face of innocence, he walked several steps towards them .

“You all saw that, this can’t be blamed on me . I was here thinking about some stuff when that guy touched my Divine Justice Shield to harm himself out of nowhere… He’s faking it!”

Wang Baole’s words, coupled with him walking closer, were like a giant stone dropping into water and causing giant ripples to spread . They caused the stunned crowd to all instinctively look at Wang Baole . They looked at him like they had seen a ghost, immediately retreating backward…

“Stay away!”

“Stop, Fellow Daoist Long Nanzi, don’t be rash!”

As they retreated, the female cultivators of the Ice Phoenix Legion and the cultivators of the seventh and eleventh armies, who were in mid-air, all spoke quickly and gazed at the Divine Justice Shield slowly circling around Wang Baole’s body with horror .

After all, the former were cultivators from the same army as Wang Baole . Although they retreated out of fear, it was still understandable . As for the latter—cultivators from the two huge armies—they actually brushed away all thoughts of avenging Lord Ling Tao and retreated with shockingly fast speed…

It was as though, to them, Wang Baole was a nightmare . That was especially so considering the Dharmic treasure circling around his body was seemingly not a Divine Justice Shield at all . Instead, it seemed like an extremely horrifying murder weapon that killed anyone who touched it!

They weren’t the only ones to feel this way . Even the commander of the seventh army, Dao Master Watercloud, a False Immortal in command of an entire army, looked as though he had seen a ghost and retreated even faster . After feeling extremely shocked, an unbelievably intense sense of avoiding a disaster and luck rose in his heart .

D*mn it, that’s a Divine Justice Shield? There’s no f*cking way it is!

In reality, if he didn’t move slightly slower and get overtaken by Lord Ling Tao, the person who would be suffering and could possibly be dead right now wouldn’t be Ling Tao, it would be him .

It was just that… Although he retreated, he was the one with the highest cultivation level there . Therefore, Wang Baole still noticed him and raised his hand in greeting .

“Fellow Daoist, you saw that just now, right? You must help me prove that he’s faking it!” Wang Baole blinked and was a little guilty . He could see that the guy he sent flying was most likely dead by now .

Dao Master Watercloud, who was retreating in mid-air, felt all kinds of emotions in his heart after hearing Wang Baole’s words and was about to explode . Seeming scared of being pestered by Wang Baole, he turned around and accelerated, charging out of the Ice Phoenix Legion’s array formation in an instant and flying away . The subordinates and eleventh army cultivators behind him also retreated rapidly . Instantly, they all left…

This made Wang Baole feel somewhat helpless . Looking at the female cultivators around him, he flashed a warm smile . As he was about to speak, the female cultivators all retreated again out of respect and fear .

“What’s wrong? I’m not a man-eating ferocious beast…” Wang Baole smacked his forehead and sighed .

At the same time, everything that happened there was seen by the oval-faced female cultivator coordinating the troops . Her body froze for a while, and confusion appeared in her eyes . The exit of a large number of cultivators also caused the crowd outside the battle to notice . They all turned their attention to the internal part of the Ice Phoenix Legion’s array formation in shock . They didn’t see the process just now, but they saw Lord Ling Tao lying there, unmoving .

“What happened?”

“Didn’t Ling Tao just enter, what…”

“Army Commander Watercloud, what’s the situation in there!”

Facing all the queries from his surrounding Daoists, Dao Master Watercloud had a nasty look on his face as he said, “Whoever’s willing to fight, fight . I’m not fighting anymore . Who could possibly defeat the monster that the Ice Phoenix Legion had hidden…”

After roaring out his response, Dao Master Watercloud didn’t even look back as he led the cultivators of his army and left quickly .

Him leaving, combined with the fact that it was unknown whether Lord Ling Tao was dead or alive, greatly weakened the alliance . Meanwhile, Daoist Red Dragon was locked in battle with Fairy Ling You and had no time to bother himself with this . Hence, the Ice Phoenix Legion quickly found an opportunity to start a counterattack!

The oval-faced female cultivator assigned people to imprison Lord Ling Tao at the first opportunity . He could be considered pretty lucky, as he actually hadn’t died… Afterward, she flew over personally and took a deep breath as she stopped in front of Wang Baole and bowed 90 degrees respectfully .

“In this battle, Fellow Daoist Long Nanzi has made the greatest contribution! Please continue attacking and helping our army!” Sincerity appeared in the eyes of the oval-faced female cultivator, and she bowed deeply towards Wang Baole once again when she finished speaking .

Wang Baole took a look at the lady in front of him and was pondering how to politely reject . Right now, his train of thought was very clear, and he wished to continue researching . But very quickly, the oval-faced female cultivator spoke softly once again .

“We will consolidate the rewards after the battle, I guarantee that you’ll be satisfied!”

Hearing that, Wang Baole blinked . He thought that his experience in the Ice Phoenix Legion was quite pleasant . That was especially so considering that although Fairy Ling You’s attitude towards him was ordinary, it was still considered normal . So he raised his head, swept his gaze around the battlefield outside of the array formation, and nodded .

“I’m a member of the Ice Phoenix Legion, after all . It’s my duty to serve the army!” As he spoke, he flew up with a flick of his body and stepped out of the array formation!

When his foot landed, Wang Baole’s silhouette disappeared . When he reappeared, it was in the sky outside the array formation . The moment he appeared, seven to eight foolish cultivators attacked him . But the moment they neared, they were sent flying and shrieking as rumbles sounded, becoming a bloody mess . Wang Baole sighed . He realized that his Divine Justice Shield would definitely be taken away by one of the higher-ups in the Divine Sovereign Justice Sect .

But in my calculations, I was planning on using the stacking method to its limit . Then, I would give up on it and restructure the Divine Justice Shield . So, even if it’s going to be taken away… they’ll just be taking away my old version . But I’m a member of the Divine Sovereign Justice Sect after all, and they can’t possibly take it away from me by force . If that’s the case… I’ll make use of this opportunity to showcase the value of the Divine Justice Shield and raise its price!
