Chapter 556 Wang Baole: I Shall Witness the Methods of the Heartless Palace
"What, do you two little girls actually think you can fight us?"
The girl in the green skirt spun around, her gaze filled with arrogance as she looked at the two women. Her haughty expression made it clear she didn't view them as any threat at all.
"That's right."
Nangong Yu showed no sign of intimidation. She held her head high and offered a fierce retort.
She had never lowered her head to anyone in her life; furthermore, her husband was the final disciple of the Great Sage Qiankun.
Even if she suffered a personal insult, she refused to bring any shame upon her husband's reputation.
"Arrogant!"
The green-skirted girl immediately erupted with the crushing pressure of the Spirit Nurturing Realm.
"Do you think I'm afraid of you?"
Nangong Yu stepped forward, positioning herself as a shield for Wang Yufei, as she released her own Spirit Nurturing Realm aura.
The two opposing auras clashed in mid-air, and for a moment, neither side could overwhelm the other.
Witnessing this, the girl in green showed a look of deep contempt: "So you are a Spirit Nurturing Realm cultivator. No wonder you act so bold. Today, I will let you witness the methods of our Heartless Palace, so you can understand that there are gaps even between Holy Lands!"
Before Nangong Yu could respond, a booming voice echoed from afar.
"What a big tone. Today, I, Wang Baole, will witness the methods of your Heartless Palace!"
Accompanied by the voice was the overwhelming pressure of the Path Fusion Realm, which instantly forced the green-skirted girl to stumble back half a step, her momentum cut in half.
"Who is there?"
The girl’s face turned pale with anger. Within the Heartless Palace, she was a pampered princess, and her master was the current Saintess. She had never been treated with such disrespect.
"I am here!"
As the shout faded, dozens of silhouettes flickered in from the distance. In an instant, these figures appeared right in front of the Heartless Palace group.
Leading them was a chubby youth with a friendly face, yet at this moment, he radiated a dense, chilling killing intent.
This fierce expression made him look like an entirely different person compared to his soft appearance.
"Wang Baole?"
Elder Hong whispered the name, and four words soon struck her mind: "You are the Demon-Slaying Heavenly Saber."
"That's right, it is me."
Wang Baole showed no hesitation or fear, despite facing disciples of a Holy Land and a Nirvana Realm cultivator. He continued to stare them down intensely.
At this moment, he resembled a starving, fierce tiger ready to tear into the women at any second.
Such a massive display of killing intent naturally made the female cultivators of the Heartless Palace feel extremely uneasy.
Elder Hong took a step forward and spoke calmly, "Daoist Friend Wang, I know you are a disciple of the Great Sage Qiankun, but I also have a Sage backing me. If this escalates, you may not gain any advantage."
"Are you threatening me?"
Wang Baole asked with a smirk, then added, "However, I, Wang, have never been one to fear a threat."
Upon hearing this, Elder Hong’s eyes narrowed instantly. "So, you are saying that your Wendao Academy intends to fight my Heartless Palace today?"
Wang Baole replied calmly, "That depends on the choice your Heartless Palace makes."
While he was unaware of the specific cause of the conflict, he was certain that his two wives were not the type to start trouble.
Because of that, he would not back down regardless of who the enemy was.
"Good, very good, Demon-Slaying Heavenly Saber. Since you refuse to be reasonable, then I will help you. I am not like the trash of the Black Dragon Army who can be stepped on by a junior like you to build a reputation."
Elder Hong sneered coldly. Even though her Heartless Palace was the party at fault, it was fundamentally impossible for their genius to apologize to a common disciple of the Wendao Academy.
As for the sword Qi of the Great Sage Qiankun that Wang Baole possessed, she wasn't worried. She also carried a life-saving treasure bestowed by a Sage; in a true fight, he wouldn't necessarily come out on top.
"Then, please proceed."
Wang Baole spoke while retrieving his firewood knife from his storage bag.
Though he looked somewhat comical holding the firewood knife, no one present felt like laughing.
Elder Hong signaled for her fellow disciples to move back with a wave of her hand. She stepped forward and slowly unsheathed the precious sword at her side.
As the blade left the scabbard, her aura surged continuously, and her body began to float slowly into the sky.
In a heartbeat, her pressure saturated a radius of several hundred miles.
Many cultivators who had already set up their camps were drawn by this power and rushed toward the scene.
However, they all kept their distance, watching from afar to avoid being caught in the crossfire of two powerful masters.
Wang Baole felt the weight of her pressure, but his expression remained stoic. A peculiar light began to radiate from him as he stepped into the void.
The moment that light surfaced, his presence became like that of an ancient, savage beast, causing onlookers to tremble with fear.
"This... what kind of physique is this? I can feel the pressure of a Divine Body, but the light he is emitting isn't Divine Light at all."
"It must be a rare, special physique. No wonder this plain-looking Demon-Slaying Heavenly Saber was recruited by the Great Sage Qiankun."
Seeing this, a cold smile curled on Elder Hong's lips: "A variant physique, is that your trump card? If that is all you have, you are unworthy of being my opponent."
As she finished speaking, a holy light bathed her, and a phantom formed from True Intent manifested behind her.
The surrounding cultivators gasped in shock at the sight.
"True Intent, Great Perfection!"
"As expected of a genius from the Heartless Palace. Despite being only in the early-stage Nirvana Realm, she has already reached the Great Perfection of her True Intent."
"Hmph!"
Wang Baole let out a cold snort: "True Intent Great Perfection, is that it? Do you believe you are the only one who has achieved that level?"
As he spoke, a black-and-white phantom materialized behind Wang Baole as well.
The spectators were now completely stunned; the two individuals before them were more monstrous than the last.
"Another True Intent Great Perfection!"
"So this is the caliber of a Holy Land prodigy. Every single one of them is truly extraordinary."
Elder Hong was not intimidated by Wang Baole’s display; instead, she looked excited.
"Very good. Now I don't have to worry about you failing to survive a single strike. One Sword, Sever All Affections!"
Clang!
A flash of cold light erupted as a terrifying sword energy swept across the sky and earth.
It was a sword strike that inspired despair, as if everything under its path would be reduced to nothingness.
This sword not only cut through emotions but sought to extinguish all existence.
Wang Baole didn't scream or flare his aura. He simply lifted the firewood knife high and brought it down with savage force.
That single blow carried the weight of ten thousand thunders; even before the blade arrived, the blade light had already struck.
The knife and the sword collided in mid-air.
Rumble!
A massive explosion thundered throughout Northern Jade Mountain. The shockwave from the impact surged outward like a tide, swallowing both of them in an instant...
