Chapter 884: The Only Way Is to Fight!

Wang Baole thought rapidly. He was very clear that his Demonic Eye Art could neutralize half of the power of the Eternal Star storm. But even then, he was near his limit. Of course, although the right-hand elder was a Planet realm and potentially had ways to neutralize some of the power, he would still be weaker than Wang Baole in the end.

So… while he felt that he was reaching his limit, the right-hand elder must have been reaching his limit as well!

That was indeed true. When he looked at the right-hand elder, his current state had obviously worsened. His hair was all gone, his body was so shriveled that it looked like a skeleton, and even his cultivation disturbances had weakened. In fact, illusory shadows of a planet seemed to appear outside his body, and they seemed to be about to collapse.

That was especially so considering that disbelief and frenzy appeared in his eyes. The right-hand elder wasn’t foolish. He had already noticed something wrong and saw that Wang Baole seemed to be able to neutralize the power of the Eternal Star. And this sort of neutralization wasn’t due to Dharmic treasures, but due to his own power!

It was just that he realized it too late. But it wasn’t his fault. If Wang Baole tried to hide it while escaping by spitting out a few mouthfuls of blood or screaming a few times, for instance, trying to purposely trick him, the right-hand elder would definitely have noticed it immediately and known it was a trap.

But Wang Baole remained silent and charged viciously. His behavior made it hard for the right-hand elder to quickly notice anything amiss. But he still reacted extremely quickly. After taking a deep look at Wang Baole, he actually started retreating very decisively. But he didn’t just retreat. Instead, he weaved hand seals with both hands while retreating and seemed to want to form a sealing force to try and prevent Wang Baole from retreating like him by acting first.

“Long Nanzi, so what if you’re sly? I admit that I was careless previously, but… by choosing to enter here, you’re still asking for death. I don’t even need to attack much. All I need to do is make it impossible for you to leave!” As the right-hand elder’s palm landed, divine powers exploded forth, and a giant hand seal appeared, crashing towards Wang Baole.

“Between cultivators, the most important thing is still their cultivation levels. I’m a Planet realm, and you’re still only a Spirit Immortal. On this Eternal Star, so long as I can last a bit longer than you, there’s still no doubt that you’ll die here!”

The right-hand elder’s cultivation exploded forth on his entire body as his eyes displayed even more frenzy. As a Planet realm and an elder of the Heavenly Spirit Sect, he had plenty of combat experience and had a decisive personality. At this moment, he ignored the fact that his planet showed signs of cracking as he tried to suppress Wang Baole. He wanted to turn Wang Baole’s decision to near the Eternal Star’s surface into one he would come to regret because it was akin to shooting himself in the foot!

“Really?” Wang Baole narrowed his eyes, and a smile appeared on his face. While the smile was unfeeling, it also gave one a sense of viciousness.

“What if you’re no longer a Planet realm?” As Wang Baole spoke, a cold glint flashed past his eyes. He had already raised his right hand, and within it was… a jade slip!

“Curse!” Wang Baole spoke calmly as he unleashed his cultivation and infused it into the jade slip in his hand. He caused the jade slip to tremble violently, and black threads instantly appeared and spread from it. The threads were like a spider web. The moment they appeared, they ignored the Eternal Star storm in the surroundings and locked onto the Heavenly Spirit Sect’s right-hand elder, whose expression completely changed. They spread towards his glabella and threatened to engulf him!

“This is…” The right-hand elder’s face instantly turned pale. A sense of danger that far exceeded what the Eternal Star made him feel exploded forth in his soul. He had a gut feeling that he absolutely couldn’t let those threads near him. Otherwise, he would definitely die.

As he felt extremely shocked, the right-hand elder immediately weaved hand seals with both hands and unleashed divine powers in an attempt to resist it. In fact, he even took out a large number of Dharmic treasures to resist it.

But it was no use!

As they neared, the black threads directly passed through all of the right-hand elder’s divine powers and Dharmic treasures. While they completely ignored them, they also became smaller and smaller until they turned into a black mark that headed straight for the right-hand elder’s glabella. They didn’t give him any time to react. It was as though everything was predestined. In the next moment… they appeared between the right-hand elder’s eyebrows and imprinted themselves within him!

Rumbles sounded as the right-hand elder’s body trembled violently, and he let out shrill cries of pain. The seal and illusory image of the palm in front of him that he had just unleashed immediately collapsed. And while he screamed, his cultivation seemed to be forcefully suppressed. The black mark on his glabella shone, and after it flashed continuously nine times, his cultivation collapsed from the Planet realm and dropped to…. the perfected stage Spirit Immortal realm!

Such a collapse was different from when Wang Baole used the curse previously to suppress someone from the late-stage Spirit Immortal realm to the early-stage Spirit Immortal realm. This time, it was more astonishing and shocking. That was because this was a drop in level and the fall of a Planet realm. This was also why Wang Baole refused to use the curse against the right-hand elder no matter what previously.

He understood that, in order to make the right-hand elder’s cultivation drop one level under the curse, he could only do so when his opponent’s body was in its worst possible state. That was why… he chose to near the Eternal Star’s surface. All that… was done… with the curse in mind!

“Now, you’re no longer a Planet realm. Guess, will we be competing to see who can last longer here? Or do you not even have the right to compete since you’ll die at my hands when I attack?” Killing intent rose in Wang Baole’s eyes as he flicked his body and charged straight towards the right-hand elder, who was retreating while screaming!

The sudden change came so quickly that the Heavenly Spirit Sect right-hand elder didn’t know how to react. Never would he have thought that the Long Nanzi in front of him actually had such an incredible technique.

That was especially so when he recalled all the previous scenes. As he let out shrill screams under the soul-crushing pain, the process of him setting up the trap and battling Wang Baole appeared in his mind. At the same time, he retreated while feeling an unprecedented sense of horror.

Wang Baole’s Planet realm palm, the fact that he heavily injured the left-hand elder, and him delaying the right-hand elder for a while, making him unable to set up other seals in time. All that, combined with how he purposely messed up the solar wind storm and made it more violent, making him unable to teleport and only able to give chase by unleashing his cultivation…

Afterward, Long Nanzi changed his direction and headed straight for the Eternal Star’s surface. The right-hand elder thought that he had seen through Long Nanzi’s plans and found a way to retaliate in this dangerous situation. However, in the end… he discovered that he still got tricked. Long Nanzi’s goal was to weaken him and unleash that heaven-defying curse.

Instantly, the advantage he thought he had become a disadvantage. Such calculations and tactics instantly made the right-hand elder feel intense fear in his heart. Previously, he already took the Long Nanzi in front of him very seriously. But he only realized now that he hadn’t taken Long Nanzi seriously enough.

However, he realized it too late, and the consequences were too huge. While those thoughts flashed in his mind at that moment, the right-hand elder’s body jolted as he tolerated the intense pain coming from his soul. He retreated rapidly, but he didn’t give up on trying to kill Wang Baole. Instead, as his fear increased, he felt an even stronger killing intent!

I’ll give it my all. I definitely can’t allow this person to live!

He knew that he had fallen for a trap and was at a disadvantage, but he obviously still had a trump card that could turn the tides!

As for whether the right-hand elder still had other tricks up his sleeve, Wang Baole was too lazy to care. And even if he knew his opponent still had trump cards, there was no way to reverse the current situation. That was because Wang Baole was very clear that his curse could only last for fifteen minutes at most. No matter whether the right-hand elder had follow-up measures, when the curse’s time was up, he would still be faced with danger.

Escaping had no use. So long as he was trapped on the Eternal Star, his future would be dark, and he would be caught up to sooner or later. At the same time, this wasn’t how Wang Baole normally handled things.

So… he had to fight no matter what!

He didn’t believe that the right-hand elder didn’t fear being in the same situation as him, being unable to leave the Eternal Star, when he gave chase previously and personally destroyed that weak spot. The violent storm on the Eternal Star had already gone helter-skelter and blocked off their senses. Danger was all around them, and the act of finding other nomological power weak spots successfully carried huge risks!

And as time passed, it would get infinitely more difficult to leave.

Unless… the right-hand elder has other methods to leave at will and dared to give chase because of that!
