Chapter 694: 694
Four eyes, one large and three smaller, hovered behind Wang Baole . Except for his original demonic eye, the other three black eyes raced away from Wang Baole and appeared before him, between him and the approaching beam of light, and opened simultaneously!

There was something different this time when the eyes opened . Besides the immobilizing effect of their gaze, an aura that exuded destruction surged from the black eyes . Before the beam of light could flood them, these black eyes blew themselves up!
Waves of spirit energy surged outwards violently, creating an immense shock wave that might not rival the singular attack from the great Never-Ending Clan battleship but still managed to scatter the concentrated beam . The beam of light diffused into a fainter, glowing blanket of light instead, its original force weakened .
The weakened attack still managed to drive Wang Baole back thousands of feet, causing his organs to churn under his Thearch Armor . However, no blood was spilled . Feng Qiuran, on the other hand, seemed worse for wear . She hadn’t yet fully recovered from her earlier injuries . She recently had her soul devoured and mind taken over . Under the cast of light, blood dripped from her lips as she tried her best to retreat . The Never-Ending Clan cultivator, whom she had been engaging in battle, seized the opportunity and unleashed a spell . He melted into the light and escaped!
That wasn’t the end of it . Daoist You Ran was clearly furious over his oversight . He found the casualty count unacceptable . The hate he felt towards Wang Baole intensified and had reached a point where he had to kill Wang Baole .
After all… this time, he was the one who had initiated the attack . He was the one who had picked up a boulder and dropped it on his own foot . If he hadn’t decided to use Wang Baole and Feng Qiuran as bait to lure the Federation fleet to him, he wouldn’t have initiated the Soul Infusion Destruction, and Wang Baole wouldn’t have had the chance to exploit the Soul Infusion Destruction, causing him such great casualties and such a humiliating defeat .
“Wang Baole, I must kill you!” Daoist You Ran sat inside the great Never-Ending Clan battleship resting on Mercury, his hair loose and disheveled, and a red glow lighting his eyes . Before him was a pool of water, and within the pool, a body!
It was lined with cracks, as if pieced together from numerous parts . This was what Wang Baole had blown up earlier, the core of the great Never-Ending Clan battleship, the battle robes!

Daoist You Ran was trying to fuse with the battle robes as he repaired the battleship . There was no way he could leave . Regardless, his desire to kill Wang Baole was overwhelming . He might not be able to leave the battleship, but that didn’t stop him from making other arrangements . The light beam earlier was one of them .
As Wang Baole fought against the beam of light, Daoist You Ran sent out new orders . They were received by the Dao Palace cultivators hidden in space, who were ready to ambush the Federation .
They were all waiting for their orders . They had hidden themselves and were isolated from the battlefield . They had no idea what was going on outside . Upon receiving the latest orders, alarm flashed across the faces of the leading Never-Ending Clan cultivators inside the battleships . They immediately sent their orders . The battleships revealed themselves instantly, turning towards the battlefield a short distance away from them, where Wang Baole was currently located . They spread themselves out into a fan-shaped formation and charged towards the battlefield!
In order to guarantee Wang Baole’s death, after making a series of orders, Daoist You Ran gritted his teeth and pressed his right palm on the torn and tattered battle robes before him . No one knew what spell he cast, but the battle robes’ shut eyes suddenly opened!
Its eyes shone with hate for Wang Baole . The glow within mirrored Daoist You Ran’s eyes . It was as if it were an exact copy of Daoist You Ran!
“Wang Baole!” The battle robes spoke . It lifted the index finger of its right hand with great difficulty, then pointed it at the surface of the pool . The finger dipped in the water lightly . The battleship, which had been formed from shards of Heavenly Dao, suddenly shuddered . Black ripples of energy traveled across the entire battleship, gathering at the central, primary altar . Black light continued to gather as waves of spirit energy spread into space . The speed at which Mercury was being mined of its stellar source seemed to quicken . The battleship seemed to be gathering its strength . At the same time, a wisp of spirit energy drifted into space and locked onto Wang Baole’s location!
Something shifted in Wang Baole’s expression . His demonic eye and his Thearch Armor seemed not to sense anything amiss . His Stellar Nascent Soul, however, opened its eyes at that instant . A strong sense of dread and danger erupted from the Nascent Soul, flooding Wang Baole’s senses .

“Something’s wrong!” The heart-racing sensation that beset Wang Baole compelled him to unleash a sudden burst of speed without hesitation . He raced into the distance . Feng Qiuran hadn’t sensed danger at all, but she had seen the serious look in Wang Baole’s eyes . She didn’t speak . Instead, she set all her doubts aside and chased after Wang Baole .
The entire region had fallen under Daoist You Ran’s grasp, however . There was almost nowhere they could escape to . The battleships that had hidden themselves for ambush revealed their forms under Daoist You Ran’s orders . Their fan-shaped formation allowed the battleships to be spread across a vast area . No matter where Wang Baole tried to escape, he would still run into a few battleships .
A dozen battleships soon discovered his tracks . The battleships set up array formations swiftly . This was followed by hordes of Dao Palace cultivators, as well as Never-Ending Clan members hiding in the host bodies of Dao Palace cultivators, surging out from the battleships and charging towards Wang Baole .
The Never-Ending Clan members amongst them hadn’t witnessed Wang Baole’s terrifying battle prowess first hand . Regardless, they had been able to figure something out on their own, based on the orders given by Daoist You Ran . The Dao Palace cultivators were blinded by their greed for battle credits . All of them wanted to kill Wang Baole in exchange for rich rewards . They weren’t fools, though . Quite a few of them had realized that something wasn’t right . The enormous black eye hovering at Wang Baole’s back was terrifying enough to give anyone the creeps .
That was why… they appeared to approach steadily, but in reality, no one wanted to be the first to die on the battlefield . What they planned to do was to hold Wang Baole back and keep him under control . It seemed like a relatively safe method that would earn them battle credits . It was, indeed, a good strategy . Unfortunately, it wasn’t going to work on Wang Baole .
Wang Baole was beset with anxiety . A sense of danger crept steadily inward, eating at his soul . The murderous look in his eyes intensified . His gut was screaming at him . If he were to be slowed down here and now, he was going to die . His fate would be sealed!
Maybe the only way out isn’t to escape, but to… kill them all! Wang Baole was a decisive character . Once the thought entered his head, he immediately narrowed his eyes and shifted his feet . In the face of the approaching battleships, their brightly flaring array formations, and armies of flying cultivators, Wang Baole didn’t run away . Instead, he picked up his pace and charged towards them!

Wang Baole roared inwardly . The armor on his body shifted . Numerous red meridians burst out and danced around his body, transforming Wang Baole into a fearsome-looking beast!
He ignored the beams of light emitted by the battleships’ array formations, allowing them to race towards him and land around him . They stirred violent ripples of spirit energy around him, but the shock waves were all stopped by his red meridians . The beams of light cut down his meridians but couldn’t touch him, and where the meridians were destroyed, more meridians emerged to take their place!
Wang Baole looked like a war chariot—invincible, infallible, and powerful beyond measure!
Red meridians continued to be blasted into bits, to turn to dust, to reform and resurrect . Behind Wang Baole, the black demonic eye fluttered but didn’t open . The mind behind the eyelid seemed to shiver with excitement . It sent thoughts of murder and carnage into Wang Baole’s mind . Its urge to kill was so powerful that it seemed to distort the fabric of space around the black eye .
Feng Qiuran trembled . Wang Baole seemed like a complete stranger at that moment . More terrified were the Dao Palace and Never-Ending Clan cultivators, who had flown out from the battleships and been intent on stopping her and Wang Baole from escaping .
“He’s Wang Baole? That’s impossible!”
“There’s something not right with him!” Shocked and alarmed, the Dao Palace cultivators attempted to retreat but were a step too late . As Wang Baole rushed at them, the demonic eye behind him opened without warning!
A pitch-black eye and its pitch-black pupil . It gave one a bizarre feeling . It was as if… they were staring into an actual eye!
One that exuded malice, madness, and a lust for blood . One whose gaze seemed almost tangible, that caught and rendered all living things immobile!
A shiver rippled through the starlit space . The cultivators stood dazed as Wang Baole charged into their midst!
Concealed underneath the Thearch Armor, Wang Baole’s lips dripped with blood . He had overreached and tried to cast his control over too many cultivators . It had resulted in a backlash from the demonic eye .
Let the backlash come . I need more demonic eyes to counter the approaching threat! Murder flashed across Wang Baole’s eyes as he attacked!
