NOVPUB"Yes, I will cooperate with Leader Wu while preventing them from escaping!"
Wu Ju nodded, the strange colors on his body surged rapidly, he closed his eyes, and his body suddenly stiffened.
At the same time, an invisible, cold aura slid off him and quickly flowed into the water below.
In just a flash.
Below the sea surface, a huge shadow quickly condensed and quickly submerged downwards.
Soon, a smile appeared on Wu Ju’s face.
However, just a few seconds later.
Shock and... terror swept across Wu Ju’s face!
His eyes widened, and he let out an angry shout:
"Drink!"
The cultivators of the Feather Serpent Tribe surrounding him all became tense, immediately holding nothing back, their mana transformed in a strange way and rushed into Wu Ju’s body.
On Wu Ju’s body, that towering mana, also seemed to subtly change its nature...
However, Wu Ju’s expression didn’t improve much, but it became more serious instead.
At that moment, a trace of terror suddenly appeared on his face again!
In just a moment, the terror turned into astonishment, relief, fierceness, and mockery...
In a short time, there seemed to be countless expressions changing on his face.
Soon, an impatient expression appeared on his face.
But all the cultivators of the Feather Serpent Tribe and the monks of the Xituo Continent could see the sense of relaxation and ease on him.
They all realized, quite obviously, that Leader Wu Ju had almost dealt with this sword cultivator of the Fenglin Continent.
Now it has reached the final stage.
It might just require a bit more patience.
All present were Class IV cultivators, they had enough patience.
Time passed quickly like a burning stick of incense, soon, half a day had also passed.
However, what puzzled everyone was, Leader Wu, he still hadn’t recovered from it.
Only the impatience on his face became more and more obvious.
Finally, Wu Ju suddenly opened his eyes:
"Mingfu, gather the Hexagonal Yuanci Array for me! I don’t believe I can’t find them!"
Monk Mingfu hurriedly nodded in agreement.
Soon, several monks began to get busy.
However, just a few moments later, Mingfu suddenly said:
"Leader Wu Ju, they are right next to the edge of the Hexagonal Yuanci Array!"
Wu Ju immediately showed a hateful look:
"So they were hiding here!"
"I’ll go and catch him right now!"
...
Deep in the ocean.
A giant lizard slightly closed its mouth, in its mouth, Wang Ba and Xumi were sitting facing each other.
Next to Xumi, a hilt that had only broken pieces left of a sword was suspended in mid-air.
Surrounding them were scattered white porcelain bottles, at a glance, there were as many as two to three thousand.
Wang Ba looked nervously at Xumi.
He wasn’t sure if the method of breakthrough using Lifespan would have an effect on the Nascent Soul stage.
Moreover, his previous experimental conclusion was that only those who had completely integrated their mana, soul, and blood energy of the physical body would have a chance of breaking through.
He did not know if Xumi also met this condition.
However, for Xumi and him at this moment, this was their only chance.
The difference was that, if Xumi succeeded, he could achieve Immortal Ascension, and under his protection, Wang Ba could also be safe.
And if Xumi failed, the uncontrollable explosion would distract Wu Ju and others, giving Wang Ba a chance to escape.
All of this, Wang Ba had already told Xumi.
And Xumi accepted it without any hesitation.
He did not even ask Wang Ba how he did it.
Compared to stepping onto Immortal Ascension with the sword energy, he didn’t care what Wang Ba did as long as it did not put the Sect at risk.
Then, he accepted Wang Ba’s Lifespan infusion.
After absorbing almost all the spirit food in Wang Ba’s storage bag, his aura began to change at this moment!
A baby looking like Xumi leaped out of his Dantian.
It was the Nascent Soul of Xumi.
At this moment, the aura on this Nascent Soul was escalating at a visible pace!
And the form of the Nascent Soul quickly grew larger.
"It’s working!"
Upon witnessing this, Wang Ba’s eyes lit up instantly.
Xumi, who always cherished his words, began to describe what was happening quickly.
"There is a unique power from this heaven and earth that rushed into my Nascent Soul through my body, with Mana being the first to absorb from the outside…"
Wang Ba was swiftly noting down this valuable data.
But soon,
Xumi suddenly stopped talking.
The rapidly growing Xumi’s Nascent Soul, a distortion started to occur at the position of the intact arms!
Seeing this, Wang Ba held his breath instantly!
"Is it going to fail?!"
Just as Wang Ba’s heart raced, a hint of agony surfaced on the face of Xumi’s physical body.
However, at this moment, despite his pain, Xumi managed to speak with difficulty:
"This force is rushing into the position of my arms, perhaps due to self-amputation… it is losing control here."
A chill ran down Wang Ba’s spine, and he quickly noted it down.
Under Xumi’s extraordinary willpower, the twisted part on his Nascent Soul surprisingly recovered little by little, much to Wang Ba’s astonishment.
Wang Ba then realized that it might not be that easy for a Nascent Soul cultivator to ascend to Immortal Ascension through the Lifespan Breakthrough.
The Nascent Soul of Xumi was growing bit by bit but becoming more and more shriveled.
Wang Ba knew that this was due to a lack of spiritual energy.
Though he brought a lot of spirit food, it was insignificant compared to the massive resources required for Immortal Ascension.
Even though it was shriveled, Xumi’s Nascent Soul was still steadily growing.
Once in the environment full of spiritual energy, perhaps it could recover quickly.
Just when Wang Ba thought that Xumi’s Nascent Soul could grow smoothly, the Nascent Soul distorted again!
"Not good!"
Wang Ba was greatly shocked.
Suddenly, the distortion became even more astonishing, it even became fluid-like!
Sometimes swollen, sometimes shriveled...
Watching as the Nascent Soul turned into a ball of meat as if it would burst at any moment.
All of a sudden, the sword energy, which was just a hilt and a fragment, jumped beside the Nascent Soul.
As if the Nascent Soul sensed something, it rushed into the sword energy!
Wang Ba watched this scene in surprise.
At the same moment, on the sword energy, the last sword fragment silently fell off.
Subsequently, the sword energy flew directly out of Fu’s mouth.
...
In the sea.
A feather serpent sensed the change in the Yuanci force, looked at a spot in the sea where nothing seemed to exist, and its eyes lit up!
"Finally… found you!"
Instantly, countless underwater feather serpents quickly gathered!
They formed a giant feather serpent, open its fangs, approaching little by little.
In its eyes, a cruel smile was shining.
Just at this moment,
A giant lizard suddenly revealed itself.
Then it opened its mouth.
A sword hilt flew straight to it.
After an initial surprise at the sight of this sword hilt, a sense of horror suddenly grew in the eyes of the feather serpent.
"Im-Immortal Ascension?!"
