Chapter 260 - A Broken Arm!

Chapter 260: A Broken Arm! Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The killing was still going on!

The pursuit was still happening!

After all, the mob came from all around, and one couldn’t send voice transmissions in the Mystic Luna Realm. Hence, there wasn’t much communication between them, and they didn’t know who the Spirit Qi source was or how strong he was.

Wang Baole couldn’t do anything to change that. He only had one option—to kill and keep on killing. After killing someone, he would leave the corpse, letting the stench of blood spread throughout the air. He was using that as a deterrent!

It would cause the next group of people to pass through the area littered with corpses to hesitate and not dare to continue giving chase. That was because they would feel fear after seeing those corpses and experiencing the murderous intent of the murderer.

That kind of deterrent had some effect, but humans would always want to try their luck. There were those who remained logical and backed away despite the strong temptation, but those who actually did so were few and far between.

Two days had passed since Wang Baole stole the small tripod cauldron. In those two days, he tried to fuse the small tripod cauldron with his body. However, he discovered that once he started fusing with the small tripod cauldron, his body would enter a state where it couldn’t be disturbed or touched. If he were to try to reach the Foundation Establishment realm in such a dangerous place, he would surely fail if any accidents happened.

Hence, Wang Baole stopped considering the method of infusing the cauldron while fighting. As he bolted deeper into the Mystic Luna Realm, the number of cultivators killed by him increased gradually, and the tally was quickly approaching one hundred!

Among the close to a hundred people, there were those from the Galactic Dusk Sect, the Plume Manifestation Connate Sect, and the Five Generation Sky Clan... So long as they gave chase and had murderous intent, they would all be slain by Wang Baole eventually.

His feelings changed from an initial hesitation to silence while he murdered and eventually became cold-blooded bloodlust. As he stood there and gazed in front of him, eight to nine people walked out silently.

Among those eight to nine people, Wang Baole knew three of them. Not long ago, he was even talking to one of them like they were close friends. But as they walked out, the atmosphere immediately became tense.

Those that walked out were the family and sons of the senators in the Senate, Li Xiu, and the nephews of the city lords of Heavenly Sky City and Yongle City were also present.

As for the rest, they all looked like young masters on the surface. Although Wang Baole had never seen them before, he could guess that their social statuses were not that far off from Li Xiu.

And those people, for them to have come out from the forest ahead, could be seen to have put in a lot of effort and positioned themselves strategically. If not, they wouldn’t have blocked Wang Baole’s path so precisely.

After all, that place could be considered the border separating them from the depths of the moon’s dark side.

“Brother Wang...” Li Xiu had complicated feelings and a hesitant look. He didn’t want to be Wang Baole’s enemy. In fact, if he knew that it was Wang Baole who had gotten the Spirit Qi source, he might not have come at all. Alas, it was too late when he found out that the person who had the Spirit Qi source was Wang Baole.

Wang Baole also sighed. During the slaughter in the past two days, he didn’t use the Dharmic Armament again. Although his body didn’t suffer a backlash, he faced too many enemies from all factions. In the end, he still couldn’t prevent minor injuries from time to time, and the minor injuries gradually accumulated. Although he suppressed his injuries, they would open up again if he suppressed them for too long.

At the same time, his mental fatigue was a huge problem as well. Even though Wang Baole had become ruthless and cold-blooded, his continuous attacking and sprinting made him feel increasingly fatigued.

As he saw familiar faces, that feeling of fatigue increased even more.

“Don’t hurt yourself by making a mistake.” Wang Baole took a long look at Li Xiu and bolted away to one side, disappearing into the forest. Right at that moment, everyone except Li Xiu only hesitated for a moment. They seemed to notice that Wang Baole was suppressing his fatigue and injuries. So a murderous glint appeared in all their gazes, and they gave chase, disappearing into the forest one after another.

Only Li Xiu stood there. He was in a dilemma and didn’t give chase as he was hesitating. Not waiting for him to stop hesitating, sounds of tragic cries could be heard from within the forest up ahead, from a place that couldn’t be seen.

The tragic cries were extremely shocking and sounded as though the people making said cries had met a huge horror. Loud rumbles and beams of light from spells exploded forth. Even Li Xiu saw a sea of lightning bolts spread from within the forest. It caused a burnt smell to be spread from the surrounding flora.

Very quickly, under the rumbling and tragic cries, the nephew of Heavenly Sky City’s City Lord and someone from a senator’s affiliated family clan, ran out rapidly. They both had frightened looks on their pale faces.

But they didn’t escape very far away before a flying sword flew straight into the back of one person’s head. It caused the guy from the affiliated family clan to widen his eyes and die on the spot.

“Wang Baole, my uncle is Heavenly Sky City’s City Lord and one of the seventeen Senators! You dare to kill me?” The remaining person, the nephew of Heavenly Sky City’s City Lord, had a huge change in his expression. He retreated backwards rapidly while screaming, and his gaze was filled with fear while looking at Wang Baole, who walked out from within the forest.

Wang Baole’s clothes were stained with blood, and he breathed heavily. Blood even leaked from the corner of his mouth. He looked very weak, as though he was unable to suppress his internal injuries any longer.

However, the murderous intent emanating from his body was stunning.

“Xiu Xiu, save me, save me!” The nephew of Heavenly Sky City’s City Lord called out anxiously to Li Xiu while retreating.

The scene sent shivers down Li Xiu’s spine. He knew Wang Baole was powerful. He could tell that from Wang Baole’s fight with Zhuo Yixian previously. He didn’t expect, however, that he had still underestimated the man.

He was very clear that Wang Baole must have been attacked many times and sustained heavy injuries throughout the past few days. Despite that, he only needed a few moments to slaughter all his comrades.

Although he didn’t see the entire slaughter, he could picture and analyze it through the rumbling and the disturbances caused by spells being cast. It was obvious that his comrades weren’t in Wang Baole’s league.

He’s still only at the perfected stage of the True Breath Realm... Once he reaches the Foundation Establishment Realm, he’ll definitely become even stronger! Li Xiu was stunned. Seeing Wang Baole walk over with murderous intent and seeing the fearful face of the nephew of Heavenly Sky City’s City Lord, he hesitated once again and decided to remain silent.

Wang Baole panted with some difficulty. As he looked at the nephew of Heavenly Sky City’s City Lord, a cold glint flashed across his eyes. As he raised his right hand and was about to attack, he seemed to have affected his injuries. Surprisingly, with a shake of his body, he spat out a large amount of blood and retreated a few steps unsteadily. It seemed like he was no longer able to suppress his injuries. He seemed to be unable to stand still, and his head was lowered.

However, what others couldn’t see was that deep within Wang Baole’s gaze, a keen glint flashed as though he was on high alert for something.

It made the nephew of Heavenly Sky City’s City Lord stop retreating. When he looked towards Wang Baole, the fearful glimmer in his eyes was replaced by one of greed and desire as though he had discovered an opportunity.

“Get lost!” Wang Baole took a deep breath, raised his head, and shouted hoarsely. He did not look at Li Xiu, instead choosing to retreat backwards to seem like he intended to leave. But right at that moment, the nephew of Heavenly Sky City’s City Lord ground his teeth and actually burst forth towards Wang Baole. He roared.

“Die!”

As that person burst towards him and roared, Wang Baole raised his head abruptly. As he did so, a glaring glimmer appeared in his eyes. All of his weakness disappeared immediately, and a shocking force erupted from his body.

Although he had suffered heavy injuries, they weren’t to the point where Wang Baole was unable to suppress them. Everything that he did previously was fake. His purpose was obviously not to kill the nephew of Heavenly Sky City’s City Lord. Instead, he was aiming for... the figure charging towards him from behind the nephew.

The figure was a woman. Her speed was too fast, and she approached right as Wang Baole’s power erupted.

Wang Baole ignored the nephew of Heavenly Sky City’s City Lord. As he turned around with the seventh-grade Dharmic Armament saber in hand, he slashed towards the woman!

“You’re finally willing to show yourself!”

A black storm exploded forth, and a black crocodile roared from within it. The sword glint shook the surroundings, and the woman planning to launch a sneak attack had a huge change of expression as Wang Baole slashed towards her. But she wasn’t an ordinary woman. In such a dangerous situation, she actually took out three statues. The three statues were all hugging their chests and spread an eerie aura. As they appeared, their auras exploded forth to counter Wang Baole’s slash directly.

Rumbles shook the surroundings and created a strong shockwave. Wherever the shockwave passed, the flora tumbled and the earth trembled. Not waiting for the nephew of Heavenly Sky City’s City Lord to approach, the shockwave hit his body and broke all his bones. In fact, he didn’t even have time to let out a tragic cry before he became a bloody mess and died.

No one noticed his death. Wang Baole spit out fresh blood and landed with the saber in hand while all three statues exploded. The woman let out an aggrieved scream and tried her best to dodge. Alas, she could only prevent her vital organs from getting hit, and her right arm was chopped off by the slash!

Fresh blood spurted out. The woman’s hair was disheveled, her face was pale, and her gaze was filled with hatred. A large amount of blood spurted from her mouth, covering her whole person in blood. She became a bloody figure and fled rapidly. One could only hear her frenzied voice filled with hatred echoing through the heavens.

“Wang Baole, I, Chen Hui, swear that I will kill you and destroy your soul no matter how many lives it takes me!”
