Chapter 752: Subduing De Kunzi!

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

As the Holy Crest Sect Grand Supreme Elder, he naturally knew some inside secrets. Besides, he was normally submissive towards the Divine Sovereign Justice Sect. He knew that the royalty of the Divine Eye civilization seemed to be at peace with the three greater sects, but actually, the tension between them threatened to escalate into a full-blown conflict.

After all, no royalty would like their authority to be in the hands of the warlords they ruled over, nor would they want to live their lives as though they were under house arrest. The Holy Crest Sect Grand Supreme Elder also understood very clearly that although the royalty was in decline, the depth and strength of their foundations made the three greater sects fear them nonetheless.

And what they feared the most… was the royalty’s top-secret art, the one only those with the purest of bloodlines could learn… the Divine Eye Art!

At the same time, he guessed that maybe there were some key details about the conflict between the three greater sects and the royalty that he didn’t know.

Regardless, he absolutely didn’t want to get embroiled in the conflict between the royalty and three greater sects. Therefore, as he felt the aura emanating from Wang Baole’s body, his desire to leave grew even stronger. This was despite him not seeing the real Divine Eye Art, confirming it based on his gut feeling and not double-checking.

But… it was too late.

As he charged out, the silhouette of Wang Baole, who walked out of the pupil of the black demonic eye, disappeared in an instant. When it reappeared, it was already in front of the Holy Crest Sect Grand Supreme Elder’s avatar.

Wang Baole’s appearance immediately made the Holy Crest Sect Grand Supreme Elder’s avatar shudder. While fear appeared in its eyes, the nervousness in its heart was like waves crashing into his soul. It instinctively took a few steps back, forced a smile on its face, and spoke courteously.

“Please don’t be mistaken, Elder Long Nanzi, I previously felt that you were about to achieve a breakthrough, so I was worried and came to protect you… Haha, congratulations to Elder Long Nanzi for reaching the Soul Conduit realm!” As he spoke, the Holy Crest Sect Grand Supreme Elder let out forced laughter. But as he laughed, he noticed that Wang Baole, who was standing in front of him, remained silent and was staring at him coldly. So this laughter slowly became awkward, and his forehead sweated uncontrollably.

The Holy Crest Sect Grand Supreme Elder wiped away the sweat instinctively and wanted to say something to break the silence and awkwardness. Without a doubt, he felt a strong sense of danger right now. He had a feeling that if he didn’t do something, he would definitely die. With Wang Baole’s killing spree and murderous intent, he would probably unleash his fastest speed to catch up with the battleship and kill the Grand Supreme Elder’s true body.

“Elder Long Nanzi, I’m still very useful. I didn’t see anything previously, I… I absolutely despise the three greater sects, and my loyalty to the royalty can be confirmed by the heavens and earth!”

As Wang Baole listened, a glimmer flashed through his eyes. The Holy Crest Sect Grand Supreme Elder’s intuition wasn’t wrong. Actually, Wang Baole did indeed have a similar thought. However, if he didn’t replace the Holy Crest Sect Grand Supreme Elder after killing him, the death of a Soul Conduit realm cultivator would definitely catch the attention of the Divine Sovereign Justice Sect he belonged to. However, Wang Baole also felt that replacing the Grand Supreme Elder by transforming into him wasn’t appropriate.

The more he did such a thing, the easier it was for him to make a mistake. Wang Baole felt that it would be a pity to give up the identity of Long Nanzi, which he had fully grasped and was very familiar with.

Even if there were other solutions, such as transforming into the Grand Supreme Elder and going on a journey or going into seclusion, they were all somewhat extra and unnecessary. But it was worse for him not to kill the Grand Supreme Elder.

So… as Wang Baole weighed the costs and benefits in his heart and as he heard the Grand Supreme Elder mention the royalty, he immediately raised his right hand and grabbed towards the Holy Crest Sect Grand Supreme Elder!

The Holy Crest Sect Grand Supreme Elder was always alert and prepared to retreat at the first moment. However, the difference in strength between them gave the Grand Supreme Elder no chance. No matter how he tried to dodge, it was of no use. His head was instantly held by Wang Baole.

At the same time, in the cosmos not that far away from this civilization, the true body of the Holy Crest Sect Grand Supreme Elder meditating within the Holy Crest Sect’s battleship shuddered and opened its eyes. Resisting his unwillingness, he wanted to sever the connection between his avatar and his soul despite the consequences, such as heavy injury to his body. However, his expression completely changed in the next moment.

I can’t sever the connection?

It was as though the soul connection between his true body and avatar was forcefully strengthened by a spell. This made him unable to actively sever the connection. As he was in shock, within the mutant civilization’s star realm, the glow of the Dark Fire appeared in Wang Baole’s eyes.

“You dare to use soul spells in front of the Dark Sect?” Wang Baole spoke softly as the eerie glow in his eyes grew stronger. He directly unleashed the soul searching spell on the Holy Crest Sect Grand Supreme Elder’s avatar!

If the target of the soul searching spell was the main body of the Holy Crest Sect Grand Supreme Elder, Wang Baole would still need to prepare himself. However, for an avatar, with Wang Baole’s current Soul Conduit realm cultivation and the assistance of the Dark Art, he directly destroyed all of the mental defenses of the Grand Supreme Elder with his consciousness. He then looked at the Grand Supreme Elder’s memories using the avatar!

The Fruit of the Eternal Star? Is it the core that has a certain possibility of being formed after an eternal star dies? Wang Baole raised his head to look at the eternal star not far away from him, shook his head slightly, and continued looking through the Grand Supreme Elder’s memories.

Even though he couldn’t see many memories due to it only being an avatar, this was enough for Wang Baole. He very quickly found what he needed and understood the cause of the misunderstanding this time!

The royalty’s top-secret art, the Divine Eye Art? Wang Baole narrowed his eyes. To the Holy Crest Sect Grand Supreme Elder, the giant eye that appeared behind Wang Baole and the entire process of his cultivation rising was the Divine Eye Art. To him, Wang Baole’s identity was definitely that of some old guy from the royalty who was possessing Long Nanzi.

But actually, Wang Baole was very clear that the spell he unleashed wasn’t the Divine Eye Art, it was the Demonic Eye Art!

If one were to view the former as the original appearance of this spell, then the latter would be the result of the Dark Sect using the strength of the Dark Art to forcefully change and modify it!

As for which one was stronger and which one was weaker, it was hard to say!

This kind of misunderstanding… it isn’t bad. Wang Baole narrowed his eyes and gave up on trying to kill the Holy Crest Sect Grand Supreme Elder. Instead, he raised his right hand to make a hand sign, and immediately after, a Dark Fire fireball formed on his palm. Afterwards, he grabbed a mini demonic eye from within the giant demonic eye behind him and fused it with the Dark Fire, forming some kind of seal. He then slapped it onto the forehead of the Holy Crest Sect Grand Supreme Elder’s avatar.

The seal instantly fused into the forehead of the avatar, turning into the shape of an eye. It wasn’t only imprinted on the skin and bones, but also the soul. Wang Baole also made hand seals rapidly with one hand. The Dark Fire outside his body spread, and the black glow of the demonic eye behind him exploded forth. They strengthened the seal, and by imprinting the avatar, Wang Baole could also imprint the true body of the Grand Supreme Elder!

In the cosmos, within the Holy Crest Sect battleship, the true body of the Grand Supreme Elder shook violently and spat out a huge mouthful of blood as he resisted and struggled with all his might. However, the same seal still materialized between his eyebrows.

This was a forbidden technique recorded in the Demonic Eye Art, and it could be said to have been developed by the Dark Sect. It was similar to a death curse. Once one was imprinted, their life and death were controlled by Wang Baole. With a thought, he could make the person die immediately and turn into a demonic eye!

The Grand Supreme Elder’s avatar had complicated emotions. However, after doing that, Wang Baole simply raised his hand that was pressing on the avatar’s hand and spoke calmly.

“Let’s go back.” As Wang Baole spoke, he strode forward. As for the details regarding the Fruit of the Eternal Star in the Grand Supreme Elder’s memories, Wang Baole saw them, but he also sensed that the Fruit of the Eternal Star created as a result of this civilization’s death had already wilted and dissipated a very long time ago. What the Grand Supreme Elder sensed was merely the lingering aura of that giant centipede-like mutant.

At the same time, he believed that with the intelligence of the Grand Supreme Elder, he would definitely feel something from the seal. More connections and misunderstandings would be created, and that was exactly what Wang Baole needed.

That was truly the case. The Grand Supreme Elder’s avatar, which was standing behind Wang Baole with a complicated expression on its face, secretly heaved a sigh of relief. Although he was relieved that he didn’t die, he was bitter about the fact that his life and death were no longer under his control. However, he understood that this was perhaps the best conclusion. Besides, with the seal on his soul, he double-confirmed his doubts.

Oh well, since I can’t escape it, I’ll just have to deal with it… The good thing is, it’s not like I can’t accept that he is part of the royalty. The Holy Crest Sect’s Grand Supreme Elder comforted himself secretly and forced himself to perk up, then quickly tried to catch up to Wang Baole. While following Wang Baole, he was also thinking about how to get along with him in the future.

It looks like I’ll have to reactivate the mystic technique that I sealed away for years and never unleashed completely. This time, I’ll have to go all out! The Grand Supreme Elder thought in his heart. A decisiveness appeared in his eyes, and he suddenly raised his head to look at Wang Baole’s back. A fiery glow gathered in his eyes, and he muttered with a volume audible to Wang Baole.

“Never would I have thought that the life of I, De Kunzi, would change at this moment…

“I used to be lost in the pursuit of interests and was engaged in deception and petty tricks. I used to be jealous of others who came from a more prestigious background, but now… I finally understand how shallow the past me was. This is because, from now on, I am someone with a master! Before meeting Master, I was skeptical of the existence of a true saint, but now I finally believe it!”
