A World Worth Protecting Chapter 838

Chapter 838: 838
He was as fast as lightning . He was far away in the previous moment but had already appeared in front of the Black Rift Legion commander in the next . Instantly, rumbles exploded forth in the surroundings . With the Emperor Armor formed by the Dharmic Battleship and Thearch Armor, Wang Baole’s combat strength was equivalent to that of a mid-stage Spirit Immortal without a Dharmic Battleship!
Although the Black Rift Legion commander had a Dharmic Battleship, due to the level of his cultivation techniques, his combat strength was only close to that of a mid-stage Spirit Immortal without a Dharmic Battleship . That was especially so considering he had underestimated his opponent at the start and sustained injuries as a result . And at his and Wang Baole’s level, whether one was injured and whether one moved first became especially important .
So when fighting Wang Baole, the Black Rift Legion commander started showing signs of being outmatched right from the start!
As rumbles sounded, blood seeped out from the sides of the Black Rift Legion commander’s mouth as he retreated again . His expression and heart were filled with shock and disbelief . He knew that while this battle happened suddenly, he had suffered a setback and lost reason . If it were others, they wouldn’t care whether he was reasonable or not . But for fellow Spirit Immortals, reason was very important .
Besides, he felt that if he kept fighting in his current state, it would be very disadvantageous for him . In his heart, he had already started regretting it, but his ego made him unable to apologize . Instead, he could only growl .
“Long Nanzi, this is the territory of the Violet Gold New Dao Sect . Do you want to fight to the death with me here!”
“Interesting, didn’t you say that I stole your army’s secrets just now? Come, tell Daddy, what did Daddy steal from you?” Wang Baole naturally understood the threat in the Black Rift Legion commander’s words and observed that his aura had weakened . But he wasn’t a merciful man . It would be best if someone didn’t mess with him . But since the Black Rift Legion commander did, then he wouldn’t be the one deciding whether to battle or not .
Even if they didn’t battle, it would be because he stopped after deciding he didn’t want to battle . So, with a sneer, Wang Baole flicked his body and neared the Black Rift Legion commander again . Rumbles sounded again as the disturbances caused by their battle in the cosmos became more and more intense .
The Black Rift Legion commander felt extremely indignant in his heart . He wished to resist but couldn’t do so . Wang Baole was obviously stronger than him . Although he wasn’t that much stronger and couldn’t kill him instantly, he made him retreat continuously and lose his reputation . Hence, a tinge of frenzy appeared in his eyes at that moment .

“Long Nanzi, do you really think that I’m scared of you!” The Black Rift Legion commander roared . As he raised his right hand, a black moon silhouette appeared above his head . Within it, a large amount of black mist dispersed, forming ghost faces that let out shrill cries towards Wang Baole .
Obviously, this technique was the Black Rift Legion commander’s trump card . At that moment, he unleashed his entire cultivation and shook the surrounding cosmos, causing the void around him to warp as well . That exemplified just how eerie and horrifying the moon silhouette above his head was!
Faintly, something seemed to awaken from a slumber within the moon silhouette . It wanted to open its eyes and make everyone who saw it die!
Ghost shadow? Wang Baole blinked and laughed . Previously, he couldn’t do anything to the Black Rift Legion commander . Although he could suppress him and beat him up, he was, after all, a Spirit Immortal . It would still be somewhat difficult to kill him . But now… it seemed as though a chance had presented itself .
But as for whether to seize that chance, Wang Baole hesitated in his heart . It would be foolish of him to expose his Dark Art just to kill the Black Rift Legion commander . Besides… if he killed a Spirit Immortal in the Violet Gold New Dao Sect’s territory, it would be difficult for even the Sovereign Patriarch to protect him…
After all, a Spirit Immortal was very important, and a sect’s reputation was even more important!
I don’t believe that the Violet Gold New Dao Sect’s Planet realm patriarch would be unaware of our battle at this point . Wang Baole narrowed his eyes, and a sharp glint appeared within them at that moment .
If he’s aware, and he’s still watching… it’s a little dangerous . Thinking to this point, Wang Baole suddenly laughed .
“Do you think only you have a trump card?” As he spoke, Wang Baole raised his hands and shook them violently . Instantly the full power of his cultivation and the Emperor Armor were unleashed, forming a storm outside his body . He made it look as though he was going to fight to the death with the Black Rift Legion commander . With a loud roar, his body moved .
But he didn’t charge towards the Black Rift Legion commander . Instead, he retreated instantly and headed straight for the former Ink Dragon Legion commander, who was watching the battle in shock from afar . He neared her instantly and raised his right hand, flicking a finger towards the former Ink Dragon Legion commander’s glabella without giving her a chance to react!
But, as Wang Baole’s finger was about to land, a humph suddenly sounded from the direction of the Violet Gold New Dao Sect . It formed a heaven-shaking disturbance as it exploded forth and descended upon Wang Baole .

This wasn’t the first time Wang Baole felt this way . The Never-Ending Clan Planet realm cultivator on the planet that the Never-Ending Clan army was on made him feel that way too . So, in an instant, Wang Baole’s body trembled violently . The feeling of the cosmos seemingly tilting and squeezing towards him made Wang Baole’s soul tremble .
However… Wang Baole dared to fight in the Violet Gold New Dao Sect, not because of the power of his Emperor Armor, but because of the Eternal Star Fire in his body and the Planet realm palm that he was nurturing .
So, the moment the Divine Sense power descended, Wang Baole growled, and the Eternal Star Fire in his body shook violently . Although it was weak, the difference in level meant that Wang Baole could still move slightly under the suppression of the Planet realm Divine Sense . The finger he flicked stopped, then broke off, causing half a finger to shoot out and land on the glabella of the former Ink Dragon Legion commander!
The former Ink Dragon Legion commander had no time to react to all of this . She only felt a huge wave of power crash forth and explode in front of her . Following that, she felt extreme pain in her body and her soul being torn apart . Cries of pain spread from her mouth uncontrollably while her body was blown back by the huge force . Instantly, half of her head, an arm, and a leg collapsed and dissipated away .
Under the impact of the violent force, her meridians broke, her dantian was damaged, and part of her soul dissipated away . Her cultivation seemed to be completely destroyed . It fell from the False Immortal realm, and she was no longer a Soul Conduit . Instead, she was beaten down to the Nascent Soul realm!
Such a fall was caused by the collapse of her foundation . So, unless she had some extremely rare and precious materials, she would be completely unable to recover!
After doing that, Wang Baole resisted the suppression from the Planet realm consciousness as his body retreated . As he raised his right hand and waved it down, all of his self-destructing battleships returned immediately . Afterward, he turned into a long rainbow with a flick of his body and left while his voice spread in the surroundings .
“Senior Violet Gold, I returned after carrying out a secret mission the Sovereign Patriarch gave me and met the Black Rift Legion . A woman from this army slandered me and said I stole their army’s secrets . After I tried to give way to them, they still tried to capture and kill me . I had no choice . I didn’t kill anyone, I only administered some punishment to this woman . At the same time, I will report this to the Sovereign Patriarch and ask him to pass judgment!”
His words were neither supercilious nor obsequious, with all of them being very reasonable . Besides, Wang Baole did indeed not kill anyone from start to finish, and he did indeed try to give way numerous times . One could say that no matter how one looked at it, he wasn’t in the wrong!
That was especially so considering he evaded the crucial point and shifted the blame for slander from the Black Rift Legion commander to the former Ink Dragon Legion commander . Such a method of speaking displayed how proficient he was at handling issues . So, when his words spread, the Planet realm Divine Sense covering Wang Baole stopped for a while, and a faint humph could be heard . But, in the end, the consciousness dissipated and stopped locking onto him .
The turn in the course of events, the battle and leaving while speaking, happened in an instant . Seeing that his subordinate was crippled and noticing that his patriarch had arrived, the Black Rift Legion commander was about to speak when he heard the cold voice of his patriarch in his ear .
“Isn’t it enough for you to embarrass yourself? Get your a** back here!”
Hearing his patriarch’s words, the Black Rift Legion commander remained silent and stared deeply in the direction that Wang Baole went . His feelings of caution towards Wang Baole intensified after hearing his words .
At the same time, at the location of the mountain gate of the Violet Gold New Dao Sect, there was a world that existed in another space . The space was filled with mountains, and on a purple mountain peak, there was a hut .
Within the hut, a middle-aged man sat cross-legged . He had a head of purple hair and was clad in purple robes . Even his pupils were purple . He was like a deity guarding the heavens and earth . At that moment, his eyes opened as though they were gazing at the distance, and he slowly retracted his gaze a moment later .
A wisp of mixed Eternal Star power, eh… This Long Nanzi, interesting!

On the Road to Elspar (Book 1)
The year is 1329. The Huntress' War has entered its tenth year, inflaming competing nationalisms and pitting the Confederacy of Caldrein against one of the continent's superpowers, the Tenereian Union. Desperately outnumbered, the Confederacy has relied on the prowess of its famed Caldran mercenaries, with highly-trained and experienced warbands returning from foreign conflicts to the defense of their homeland, and it is on their backs that Caldrein has successfully mounted a valiant defense for a decade. But they are losing, and day by day, with all the grace of a sledgehammer, the vast Tenereian armies take one more bit of Caldran territory, one footstep at a time. Sixteen-year-old Neianne from the village of Caelon has submitted herself to Faulkren Academy, one of the centuries-old institutions established to train the next generation of Caldrein's elite soldiers of fortune, to learn the ways of wars for three years before embarking upon the defense of her country. Her dryad family once hailed from reclusive woodland communes isolated from Caldrein's complicated mainstream society, and her upbringing leaves the shy village girl unprepared to suddenly train alongside other apprentices from backgrounds as low as the dirty slums of Caldrein's cities and as high as the halls of aristocratic power. Yet the war is eroding the norms and traditions that the Caldran people have long considered part of their national mythos, and the tensions within the confederacy that have long simmered under the surface - race, class, community, identity - are slowly but surely dividing its people, and Neianne must grow and discover who she really is, even as the war that she is steadfastly training for comes to its inexorable end... On the Road to Elspar is a fantasy quest - a work of interactive fiction wherein readers get to vote on what happens next at critical junctures - that is the first entry in a story that follows Neianne of Caelon, which first began on July 20, 2016. Originally a three-part in medias res prologue to a larger story titled On the Elsparian Road, it was eventually decided that this section - which covers Neianne's three years at Faulkren Academy - become its own independent story due to length, structural, and accessibility reasons. Despite this being a reader interactive work of fiction, due to logistical and verification concerns, voting will only be counted on its thread on the forum Sufficient Velocity, where this story originally began. As such, the content here on Royal Road serves as a story-only archive. You are, of course, entirely welcome to enjoy On the Road to Elspar as a conventional work of fiction, just as you are welcome to comment, discuss, and provide critique. But if you would like to participate in the voting, then I would be honored to welcome you on Sufficient Velocity. To facilitate accessibility and to ensure the best reading experience, this story-only version of On the Road to Elspar will be updated at a periodic pace, even though further content exists, so as to not overwhelm new readers on Royal Road. If you enjoy this story, wish to binge it, and/or want to participate in voting immediately, you may of course read all additional content via the link provided above. This paragraph will be removed once the content on Royal Road catches up with what has already been posted in its original thread. Cover artwork by DreamSyndd.
