Chapter 904: Going Overboard!

As the jade token was taken out and as he spoke, Dan Zhouzi, who was controlling the golden beetle seal, had a huge change in his expression as waves crashed in his heart. He had previously seen that kind of jade token before. When he saw it now, he couldn’t help but have a change in expression. What was most important was that he was already guessing Wang Baole’s background previously. Now that he heard that, he couldn’t help but feel uneasy. If anyone else called himself that in front of him, he wouldn’t believe them.

But, because of Wang Baole’s cultivation and background, he wouldn’t completely doubt him, though he wouldn’t completely believe him either. So, he split some of his Divine Sense to check the authenticity of the jade token. While his soul was unsteady, his control over the golden beetle seal got delayed. Although he recovered control of it instantly, it was still too late.

After all, timing was most important in the clash between him and Wang Baole. Moreover, the delay was his own mistake, so the momentary delay was enough for Wang Baole. A strange glint flashed in his eyes as he dispersed his body and turned it into mist. With lightning-quick speed, he charged out of the boundary of the golden beetle seal. After he appeared, as Dan Zhouzi’s expression changed again, the killing intent in Wang Baole’s eyes exploded forth.

Behind him, the Demonic Eye Art transmogrified, forming a giant black eye that opened and stared at Dan Zhouzi. Instantly, an invisible binding force descended and caused Dan Zhouzi’s body to freeze for a moment. His heart trembled, and while he secretly cursed, Wang Baole’s body blurred, and four silhouettes flew out from his body in the next moment!

The four silhouettes were all silhouettes formed with his essence. They were like four sharp blades that charged towards Dan Zhouzi. But they didn’t attack, instead… they self-destructed!

This was the fastest and most destructive attacking method Wang Baole could think of. And all that was extremely violent. Just as Dan Zhouzi’s body recovered, Wang Baole’s four avatars neared and… self-destructed in unison!

Rumbles exploded forth in the cosmos and instantly drowned out Dan Zhouzi’s shrill cries of pain!

Wang Baole’s attacks were fast, furious, and extremely powerful. One could say they were extremely incisive. But… there was still a little difference in foundation between him and Planet realms. Although he could heavily injure Dan Zhouzi, it would be somewhat difficult for him to kill Dan Zhouzi instantly.

And Never-Ending Clan Planet realms were slightly different from Planet realms of other races. To a certain extent, after they displayed their true bodies, the difficulty of killing them would shoot up drastically. After all, the name of the Dao Domain was the Never-Ending Dao Domain, so Never-Ending Clan members were destined to have it much better than those of other clans.

That was especially so because all Never-Ending Clan members had an intrinsic divine power, which was the ability to self-destruct their limbs. Their extra two heads and four arms had both offensive and defensive capabilities. They could self-destruct to harm foes, and they could also be used to resist life-threatening damage. In fact, it wouldn’t be ridiculous to say that Never-Ending Clan members had three lives.

That was unless one could completely crush Never-Ending Clan members in terms of cultivation and combat strength and kill them extremely quickly. But Wang Baole obviously couldn’t do that currently. So, although Dan Zhouzi let out shrill cries of pain, he only had to pay a huge price, sacrificing one of his heads and an arm while also using the golden beetle seal to resist. With that, he finally survived the self-destruction of Wang Baole’s four avatars.

It was just that the price he had to pay was too huge. The golden beetle seal was damaged, and his true body was also almost crippled as his cultivation started becoming unsteady. He was in an extremely bad state and only had a left hand remaining. As blood spread around his body, Dan Zhouzi’s silhouette rapidly retreated. Waves of fear and shock had already crashed onto his heart, and at this moment, he didn’t have any thoughts of continuing the battle. The only thought he had in his mind was to escape no matter what!

So, after charging out of the blast radius, Dan Zhouzi used his only remaining left hand to weave hand seals without hesitation, causing the golden beetle seal to change back into the golden beetle. He stepped into it with a flicker of his body and used all his might to control it. It turned into a golden ray of light and escaped towards the cosmos in the distance.

He felt extreme fear towards this weird foe, and his escape caused Shan Lingzi, who was sealed at one corner, to turn even paler as desperation appeared in his eyes.

Wang Baole was also feeling upset. Creating four avatars and making them self-destruct also drained him greatly. But he gritted his teeth, and the killing intent in his eyes was abnormally steady and intense.

I’ve already experienced the consequences of being pursued after not eliminating threats from the root of the problem. Although my cultivation level wasn’t high enough that time and the conditions didn’t allow me to, this time… I absolutely can’t allow myself to always be in the mind of and hated by someone in the future! Wang Baole was very clear that if he completely exterminated Shan Lingzi during the Flame Patriarch’s mission back then, he wouldn’t have encountered this situation.

Moreover, he was lucky this time. He had just achieved a breakthrough and went into this battle in peak condition. But he didn’t know whether he would be so lucky the next time. As those thoughts flashed in his mind, Wang Baole raised his right hand and grabbed towards the sealed Shan Lingzi.

Instantly, he pulled Shan Lingzi’s body over, sealed him again, and threw him into his storage bag. Afterward, his body turned into a large amount of mist that sped in the direction that Dan Zhouzi escaped to!

The pursuit continued for over twenty days. In the end, as Wang Baole kept chasing, the golden beetle got slower and slower because of its previous injuries, allowing Wang Baole to finally catch up with it and fight Dan Zhouzi again!

For this battle, their battle location was the cosmos of an extinct civilization. Rumbles echoed in their surroundings, and while the spread of waves didn’t cause any planets to collapse, the meteorites floating in all directions broke apart.

Although Dan Zhouzi escaped, his only remaining arm was cut down by Wang Baole. As for the golden beetle, it already lacked the strength to escape. It was taken away by Wang Baole while on its dying breath and thrown into his storage bag after being sealed. Although he was tired and the Emperor Armor was greatly drained, he still gave chase.

“Xie Dalu, this was a misunderstanding. We don’t have any grievances against each other. Why are you giving your all just to chase me!” Dan Zhouzi was in a state of frenzy and sent his Divine Will out towards Wang Baole while escaping.

Wang Baole also admitted that what Dan Zhouzi said made sense, and those words would indeed have been effective if said before they fought. But… Wang Baole thought to himself that if he had been heavily injured by someone and had his true body destroyed, he would definitely feel indignant. He would also definitely seek revenge if given a chance to in the future.

After all, this didn’t only involve revenge, it also contained an opportunity. So, once he allowed his opponent to escape, it would basically guarantee that he would have to deal with many problems in the future.

“Don’t worry, I can swear that I’ll never seek revenge in the future. If I knew you were a disciple of the Xie family earlier, I would never have given chase.” Seeing that Wang Baole was unmoved, Dan Zhouzi immediately got anxious and explained hurriedly. But in return were Wang Baole’s cold words.

“I don’t believe you!” As he spoke, Wang Baole accelerated. As the Emperor Armor unleashed all its power, he caught up in an instant and slashed with his Divine Armament again!

Dan Zhouzi became even more frenzied as he tried his best to resist. As rumbles sounded, Wang Baole put him in such a passive situation that he had no choice but to fight. Within this foreign cosmos, he kept fighting as blood spread all around!

“You’ve gone overboard!” Seeing that he was getting weaker and weaker and that his cultivation was highly unstable, Dan Zhouzi went crazy as his body trembled. Even he didn’t believe that he wouldn’t seek revenge. It was highly likely that once he escaped, he would carry out a secret investigation. Afterward, he would seek help and search for Wang Baole. If he couldn’t find Wang Baole himself, he would probably spread the information about the Galaxy Bow imitation. That could bring trouble for Wang Baole. It would bring him solace even if it indirectly caused Wang Baole’s death.

But it was fine for him not to believe himself. The fact that Wang Baole didn’t believe him made him frustrated. Coupled with how he was suppressed all the way, there was only one option in front of him.

That was… to create an opportunity by self-destructing his physical body to allow his soul to escape like what Shan Lingzi did previously. Although that had huge consequences, it was his only option now. Moreover, he had a mystic technique that allowed him to hide his soul, making it undetectable as he escaped. So, as he growled, his eyes turned red. In the next moment, his body instantly emitted a golden glow. The light intensified instantly, and the illusory image of a planet transmogrified behind him, spreading outwards violently. As cracks sounded, his body and planet collapsed and exploded!
