Chapter 855: Strongest Spirit Immortal!

To Dark Sect disciples, the Dark Realm was like a world completely under their control. Like how the heaven and earth were divided into yin and yang, Dark Sect disciples in the Dark Realm could do more than herd souls, they could cultivate.

And the special Dark Qi within the Dark Realm was an extremely nouris.h.i.+ng item equivalent to Spirit Qi for the Dark Sect. It could cause their cultivation to incorporate both yin and yang and far exceed that of other sects.

For Dark Sect disciples back in the day, everyone had a fixed right to enter the Dark Realm to cultivate. But there were still cultivation level requirements. They had to be at least at the Planet realm in order to enter. So, w.a.n.g Baole had heard of and knew about it while in the Dark Dream, but he had never entered it before.

And after the Dark Sect fell, because the Heavenly Dao collapsed, the Dark Sect was already wilting to a certain extent. Furthermore, the Never-Ending Clan had sealed it, and thus no Dark Sect disciple had gone to the Dark Realm for a very very long time.

Similarly, because no one had gone there for a very long time, it caused the concentration of Dark Qi within the Dark Realm of the Never-Ending Dao Domain to reach an astonis.h.i.+ng level. Although souls at the Planet realm and above couldn’t enter the Dark Realm due to the death of the Heavenly Dao, causing the entire Dark Realm to lose its source, the concentrated aura… was still incredible nourishment for w.a.n.g Baole!

After sensing that this was the Dark Realm that the Dark Sect referred to and that the aura there caused his shattered body to heal, w.a.n.g Baole thought that everything would be perfect if he could let his true body sink into this place.

What a pity…

w.a.n.g Baole felt that it was a real pity, but he felt more excitement in his heart. Because, according to the Dark Arts that he learned, once he reached the Planet realm, he could activate the Dark Realm and let his true body enter it.

With that thought, w.a.n.g Baole was reinvigorated. While stepping on the statue, he raised his right hand and weaved hand seals. Instantly, the surrounding mist moved to him and became a vortex that spun crazily with him at its center.

As it spun, a large amount of Dark Qi headed straight for w.a.n.g Baole under the cheering and wors.h.i.+pping. It went along his seven orifices and crazily gushed into every hair and inch of skin on his body.

The death aura, which would cause other people to feel shocked when they touched it, and which they would much rather avoid, was an extremely nouris.h.i.+ng item to w.a.n.g Baole.

As he absorbed it, his essence body under his Emperor Armor, which originally had countless rifts on it, was rapidly healing. Moreover, as the death aura entered his body, although w.a.n.g Baole’s cultivation didn’t increase, there was an effect similar to stabilizing his cultivation!

One could say that the previous w.a.n.g Baole had lost the contemplative understanding of cultivation he had gathered because his cultivation had increased too quickly and couldn’t cover all bases properly. That caused his cultivation to seem like the late-stage Spirit Immortal realm, but he couldn’t completely unleash his full combat strength. But now… under the boost of the death aura, all the future trouble that the huge increase in his cultivation brought was rapidly being settled!

As it was settled, an immense cultivation disturbance exploded forth from his body. There was also a sense of power and strength that spread from every inch of his body and gathered into his consciousness. It caused w.a.n.g Baole to raise his head and let out a roar uncontrollably.

As the roar sounded, the surrounding vortex rumbled again, and more death aura gushed forth, seemingly without limit. It also seemed like the death aura had Spirit Intelligence and was indignant at being trapped in the Dark Realm for so long, wanting to become part of w.a.n.g Baole and follow him out to see the sun again!

So, as waves of heavenly thunder-like rumbles sounded, the vortex got bigger and bigger, and all of the rifts on w.a.n.g Baole’s body completely healed. When the injuries both inside and outside his body completely healed, his cultivation seemed like it was at the late-stage Spirit Immortal realm. However…. because of the fusion of yin and yang, his cultivation could be described as being as st.u.r.dy as bedrock!

In the current Never-Ending Dao Domain, there may be some Spirit Immortals whose cultivation could reach the st.u.r.diness of w.a.n.g Baole’s. However… those people were basically all from ma.s.sive powers and family clans and were born with a silver spoon.

Only those family clans could nurture such disciples and see them as the bright future of their family clan. Besides that, not many people could be like w.a.n.g Baole in the entire Never-Ending Dao Domain, forming a foundation like bedrock after incorporating yin and yang!

In reality, w.a.n.g Baole also didn’t know that this was the wish of his senior brother, Chen Qing. When Chen Qing took w.a.n.g Baole out of the Federation to go to the only hidden gathering point of the Dark Sect, he planned to have w.a.n.g Baole make use of the power of the Dark Realm to gain a bedrock-like body after he became a Planet realm cultivator.

Although accidents happened during the process and w.a.n.g Baole hadn’t reached the Planet realm yet, it wasn’t too different from Chen Qing’s plans. That was because w.a.n.g Baole, who had noticed his cultivation change, had received benefits despite not knowing his senior brother’s plans. At the same time, he was also comparing himself to the late-stage Spirit Immortal he had met when he was carrying out the Flame Patriarch’s mission.

w.a.n.g Baole clearly understood that his previous self was probably almost equivalent to that late-stage Spirit Immortal when he didn’t take the augmenting Dharmic treasures into account. And, after absorbing the death aura, he seemed to have dragons and tigers fused together within his body… Even without the augmentation of the Emperor Armor and those Dharmic treasures, he could kill that Never-Ending Clan late-stage Spirit Immortal with his own power!

And he was confident that the process wouldn’t take too long. So, in an instant, w.a.n.g Baole had already decided that when his cultivation reached the Planet realm, he must go to the Dark Realm again and gather death aura once more. He could let his cultivation become more and more stable, and he would also surpa.s.s others from the get-go.

Now that I’m… fully armored, is there a possibility that I could hold my own against an early-stage Planet realm cultivator?

w.a.n.g Baole was extremely excited. Because he had never fought a Planet realm before, he could only weigh it in his heart, and his final answer was…

Judging by that Never-Ending Clan Planet realm cultivator that I met during the Flame Patriarch’s mission… after wearing the Emperor Armor, even if I can’t beat them, it would be impossible for an early-stage Planet realm cultivator to kill me!

With that understanding, w.a.n.g Baole laughed loudly. At the same time, he noticed that he had started absorbing the death aura more slowly. He knew that he had reached his limit. He didn’t want to continue and risk suffering the consequences of a yin-yang imbalance. So, as his eyes flashed, w.a.n.g Baole immediately stopped absorbing decisively. When he lowered his head to look at the statue, he had the urge to store it away.

But the statue was very strange and couldn’t be kept in a storage bag. Although w.a.n.g Baole felt that it was a pity, it was okay to leave the statue in the Dark Realm. So, he weaved hand seals with both hands and unleashed Dark Arts to seal the statue again. And after setting up his own Dark Art seal disturbances to enable him to instantly find the statue when he went there again, w.a.n.g Baole took a deep breath and raised his head to look at the void above.

It’s time for me to leave!

Thinking to that point, w.a.n.g Baole narrowed his eyes. Even though his body had recovered, he didn’t disperse his Emperor Armor. At that moment, his cultivation exploded forth, and a wave of cultivation disturbance—which seemed to be at the late-stage Spirit Immortal realm but could shock and amaze fellow late-stage Spirit Immortals with its concentration—rose from his body. And under the augmentation of his Emperor Armor, the disturbance exploded forth again. In fact, besides the fact that w.a.n.g Baole didn’t have the special suppressive force that Planet realm cultivators had after swallowing a planet, he was already not too far off from them.

Under that explosion, his silhouette was like a shooting star that burst into the sky and got faster and faster. As he sped, the Dark Realm mist outside his body followed him and spun, as though sending him off. It caused w.a.n.g Baole to get even faster. When he reached his maximum speed, a heaven-shaking rumble spread towards the surroundings. It was as if the void had exploded. A vortex leading to the outside world appeared in front of w.a.n.g Baole as he sped.

Without hesitation, w.a.n.g Baole’s body charged forth and stepped into the vortex directly. He left the Divine Eye civilization’s Nine Spectrals, and when he reappeared… he was already in the cosmos outside the Divine Eye main star!

The cosmos rumbled, and runes spread towards the surroundings, creating disturbances that even people really far away could see. If all of that happened previously, it would definitely have caught the attention of the cultivators from the three greater sects stationed outside the Divine Eye main star. In fact, even cultivators on the land of the Divine Eye main star would be able to see the changes in the cosmos when they raised their heads.

But now…. the entire Divine Eye main star was silent. The armies of the three greater sects originally stationed there… had already become countless dust particles floating in the silent cosmos…

A head, which had its eyes opened wide in desperation, floated in front of w.a.n.g Baole from not far away, slowly moving past him!
