Chapter 823: 823
“Impossible!” While Wang Baole screamed for his Dharmic Battleship to self-destruct, the elder’s sound of disbelief also sounded . He remembered that the Dharmic Battleship had been heavily damaged previously . But right now, it looked almost fully repaired . Although it wasn’t impossible to do so in such a short amount of time, the elder didn’t think that Wang Baole could achieve that .
Without a doubt… the amount of resources and rare materials one needed to achieve that was hard to bear even for him . But obviously, such an impossible thing still happened . As the elder’s expression changed in shock, Wang Baole’s self-destructing Dharmic Battleship crashed into the elder’s Dharmic Battleship tree .
The heavens and earth trembled . The heavens seemed about to collapse, while the earth split apart . Instantly, most of the Dharmic Battleship collapsed . Through that sacrifice, it created a giant hole in the tree . As the hole appeared, more and more cracks appeared on the tree until a silhouette suddenly charged out from within it .
That silhouette was the Never-Ending Clan elder . The fact that his Dharmic Battleship defense was broken through via a method that exceeded his imagination made him extremely scared in his heart . He also understood that he had to give his all in this battle . Truly, Wang Baole’s determination made his scalp go numb .
As the Never-Ending Clan elder charged out, a cold glimmer shone in Wang Baole’s eyes . His Thearch Armor transmogrified as he activated all of his Divine Justice Shields and charged out as well . He also raised his right hand and waved it . Immediately, numerous balls of black Dark Fire rumbled forth from the surroundings . As they gathered and engulfed the surroundings, a high temperature spread, and the stench of death became extremely intense . In that sea of fire, the two of them clashed .
Instantly, rumbles echoed, and the two kept attacking each other within the sea of fire . They hit each other hundreds of times in just a short period of time . Although Wang Baole wasn’t a Spirit Immortal, he had the Thearch Armor and the reflection of the Divine Justice Shield . Moreover, he had gone into a frenzy and had intense killing intent . He wanted to kill the Spirit Immortal even if it meant getting injured himself . That way, he was actually equally matched with the Never-Ending Clan elder .
At the same time, because the disturbances were very strong in this place, and because a Dharmic Battleship self-destructed previously, the disturbances created spread towards the surroundings and caused many cultivators nearby to shudder with fear . Yet, they couldn’t help but rush there to look .

As Wang Baole clashed with the Never-Ending Clan elder, there were already hundreds of silhouettes appearing in the surrounding distance one after another . They didn’t dare go too close, so they could only watch the heaven-shaking and earth-rumbling battle with shock and disbelief .
“It’s the army commander!”
“Wow, that pig-masked man… can actually hold his own against the army commander!”
“Why is there such a huge change in the army commander’s cultivation!”
“Did you see that? There’s even Dharmic Battleship debris beside them!” As disorderly inhales sounded, the surrounding crowd became even more shocked . At the same time, there were some Descenders who rushed there cautiously . While hidden, they watched the scene from afar . After noticing Wang Baole, their hearts all trembled .
On the one hand, they hated Wang Baole to the core . After all, the entire Never-Ending Clan’s frenzied search previously affected them quite a lot . On the other hand, seeing Wang Baole actually fight a Spirit Immortal had a huge impact on them .
Also watching was the Flame Patriarch . Having watched from the start, right now, he was watching with gusto and with utmost concentration .
Towards all of the people watching, no matter whether Wang Baole knew them or not, he had no time to care about them . At that point, he focused all his attention on the Never-Ending Clan elder, and his killing intent grew stronger and stronger as he attacked .
If it continued on like that, it would be advantageous for the Never-Ending Clan elder . But the battlefield was chosen by Wang Baole . As the Dark Fire burning in the surroundings grew stronger, it dispersed more heat and burned the Never-Ending Clan elder even more . This affected the elder greatly . In the end, as Wang Baole weaved hand seals with both hands, the surrounding Dark Fire exploded forth and transmogrified into black flame fists, crashing towards the Never-Ending Clan elder .
Flame silhouettes were also transmogrified, and they kept circling around in the surroundings . The giant demonic eye behind Wang Baole also slowly opened again . It was as though its power of solidification was going to be reactivated .
All of that made the Never-Ending Clan elder shocked and anxious . That was especially so when he noticed that the curse on his body didn’t dissipate . Instead, even stronger disturbances appeared . It seemed as though it was going to cut his cultivation down yet again . This threw the Never-Ending Clan elder into a complete frenzy . He no longer wished to fight and seemed to be preparing to retreat .
When the surrounding crowd saw that, they became even more shocked . After all, seeing Wang Baole clash with a Spirit Immortal and seeing the Dharmic Battleship debris beside them already made their souls tremble . But now, the Spirit Immortal actually appeared to be preparing to escape . Naturally, the awe and shock caused by this were even more intense .

And as the surrounding crowd’s souls trembled, the Never-Ending Clan elder retreated while letting out a loud growl .
“Trying to run away?” The moment the elder retreated, Wang Baole narrowed his eyes and charged out suddenly . But the moment he charged out, a cold glimmer suddenly flashed between the eyes of the elder, who seemed to be escaping . All of his fear disappeared, and viciousness took its place . His body rumbled at that moment, and a second and third head appeared on his neck . On his body, another four arms poked out in an instant .
He had… exposed his Never-Ending Clan true body . It was supposed to have three heads and six arms, but one of his arms had been destroyed previously . So, his current true body had three heads and five arms!
“Never-Ending Seal!” The moment his true body transmogrified, the elder’s body stopped . He weaved hand seals with five hands, and his three heads growled as he pointed towards Wang Baole . Instantly, a star map transmogrified in front of the elder . His five arms were like galaxies, and his three heads were like Eternal Stars . When they appeared, they caused the surrounding heaven and earth to warp . A wave of sealing force spread towards Wang Baole!
It all happened too quickly . In an instant, the seal landed directly on Wang Baole’s body . But the moment its restraining power exploded forth, Wang Baole’s body dissipated . Wang Baole seemed to be sealed, but that was actually just an illusory avatar!
This scene caused the Never-Ending Clan elder’s eyes to narrow as he retreated rapidly . But he was still too late . In the void at the right side of his body, as the mist gathered, Wang Baole’s true essence body stepped out . His eyes revealed intense killing intent . As he appeared, his Thearch Armor dispersed a resplendent light, and he threw a punch towards the elder .
His speed and the suddenness of his appearance left the Never-Ending Clan elder no time to turn the Never-Ending Seal . He could only growl while turning around and weave hand seals with his five hands to activate a new divine power . A black hand formed, grabbing towards Wang Baole .
“Shatter!” Wang Baole growled . Not only did he not decelerate, he actually accelerated and crashed into the big hand . The moment they collided, he forcefully made all of the Divine Justice Shields on his body collapse in exchange for maximum reflection force .
The heavens and earth rumbled, and the loud noise spread towards the surroundings . At that moment, all of his Divine Justice Shields collapsed, and the reflection force formed instantly made the Never-Ending Clan elder’s entire body tremble violently as he spat out a mouthful of blood . As his body retreated violently and his expression turned pale, Wang Baole had already charged over . Seeing that, the Never-Ending Clan elder bit his tongue and spat out a mouthful of blood again . When the blood appeared, it instantly turned into a patch of blood fog . The blood fog formed many blood-colored blades, covering the air in front of him and blocking Wang Baole . At the same time, his body retreated more quickly as he tried to pull away .
But Wang Baole was vicious not only to his enemies but also to himself . The blood fog blades made him feel an intense sense of danger, but Wang Baole still gritted his teeth and ignored the danger . He allowed the patch of blood fog blades to touch his body freely . Under waves of intense pain, and as many places on his body were ripped apart despite the protection of the Thearch Armor, Wang Baole’s body charged out forcefully, and he landed a punch near the heart of the Never-Ending Clan elder .
The sheer power of the punch, after being incorporated with Wang Baole’s Thearch Armor and his cultivation, could cause the elder’s heart to collapse . But, the Never-Ending Clan elder unleashed an unknown divine power and only let out a dull humph, seeming to shift his injuries . In the end, only one of his heads collapsed . Making use of that force, his body retreated even more quickly and pulled away .
However, after pulling away, he still spat out a large mouthful of blood, and his aura weakened a lot . Shock appeared in his eyes again as he growled towards the distance .
“What are you waiting for? Come and assist me!” While speaking, the elder kept retreating .
Wang Baole narrowed his eyes . But instantly, his eyes expressed his unwillingness, and his killing intent grew stronger . Not caring about his own injuries, he gave chase and instantly clashed with the Never-Ending Clan elder again .

Many Minded
Synopsis: Issa Pyxis, Spacer orphan and illegal heretic, graduated from living on the streets to running with a gang years ago, but now it looks like that’s all going to change. Her inheritance, more specifically who—or what—she is, is catching up with her, and on a planet with the Emperor’s inquisitors slinking around in every shadow, nowhere is safe and no one can be trusted. What will she do? A cyberpunk story about identity, loneliness, covert infiltration, evil dystopias, and much more! Features: - Cyborgs and cyberpunk galore - This is indented to be somewhat “rational” and “hard” Sci-Fi story - Original Fiction however parts of my worldbuilding are inspired by other Sci-Fi stories (duh) Rationale: The future is cool, AIs are kickass, and questions about consciousness are simultaneously existential and yet unanswered. To me, this story is a vehicle for exploring these topics, and also, I wanted to write a story where the protagonist was unafraid of themselves and where their self is more like a git-repo than a meat computer. Disclaimer: This story primarily takes place in what we’d describe as a “cyberpunk dystopia” with some extra technocracy, autocracy, and religious fervor thrown into the mix, so there will be some “grittiness” in this story. Caveat emptor. Also, [insert your favorite boilerplate “views expressed” disclaimer here]. I shouldn’t need to say this, but the main character and other characters in my story can be wrong on occasion (gasp!) and the way they view the world isn’t always objective truth (if such a thing even exists) nor do their views and opinions necessarily reflect the views of me, the author. Cover art by me! [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge]
