Chapter 1586 -103 Return_4
“Wang Ba is about to die. If I were that Void Refining cultivator from Wanxiang Sect, for a disciple like this, I would absolutely step out to protect him…”
“If they don’t come out, that would mean…”
A trace of anticipation flickered in his eyes.
The answer was soon to be revealed.
At the same time.
At the bottom of the Ice Abyss in the Northsea Continent, the shadow of a young figure frowned slightly.
“Although I’ve borrowed the method of using Dao soldiers, if he were to perish mid-way like this, it would be…”
After pondering for a moment, his voice quietly transmitted from the depths of the sea.
“Monkey, why haven’t you gone already?”
Outside the Ice Abyss, within a grand Ice Snow Buddha Temple.
Seated atop a lofty lotus throne before the gathered monks, like a Buddha himself, Wu Monkey King slowly opened his eyes, his thoughts stirring as he gazed southward.
He lowered his head and chanted a Buddhist blessing.
The monks instinctively raised their heads, only to be stunned by the sight of an utterly empty lotus throne…
Meanwhile.
Deep under the West Sea, a figure in black robes suddenly felt his heart leap with an ominous sense of foreboding!
“What’s happening?”
“Why have the emotional fluctuations of both my true form and the Ice Daoist become so intense!?”
And just then.
A ripple-like small hole suddenly appeared beside him, and soon an antlerless dragon head emerged, its crimson eyes gleaming with joy:
“Found it! Xiao Wu said it’ll come over once it finishes eating!”
Only to notice that Daoist Yuanci was staring blankly at the distance, his expression rarely looking so grim.
The Chi Dragon froze for a moment:
“Wang, you…”
…
Within the Taoist Field.
The moment the meatball at the realm membrane fissure appeared and extended its fleshy hand, the sequence of events seemed long but was, in truth, almost instantaneous.
Watching as the four-fingered fleshy hand, sharp nails protruding, reached out and clawed at him.
A sensation rarely felt over the years—an eerie chill—rippled through Wang Ba’s heart!
He suddenly understood with terrifying clarity that, even without being bound by the Taoist Field’s constraints, and with two Dao soldiers’ empowerment, he was still unquestionably no match for this meatball!
The disparity was far too great!
The fleshy hand lunged toward him at breakneck speed.
A trace of helplessness flickered in Wang Ba’s eyes.
“I can only retreat for now.”
Better to retreat and live than to persist and die. While rarely suffering setbacks over the years, Wang Ba had expected such moments and had prepared plans for retreat. Forcing a fight in insurmountable scenarios would only end in needless sacrifice of his life.
Never let sunk costs dictate future decisions.
As for escape, he had his own means.
But just as he was about to initiate the Minor Complete Heaven Escape Divine Skill, he was suddenly shocked to see the fleshy hand retracting at an even faster pace!
No! It wasn’t retreating.
The meatball stuck in the realm membrane fissure seemed as though someone was desperately pulling it from outside, causing the surrounding realm membrane to bulge into an exaggerated arc.
The previously lunging four-fingered fleshy hand now grasped the edge of the fissure with all its might, while another wing unfurled, the hand at its tip also clawing at the other side of the fissure.
As the two wings spread wide, a vibrant, Mountain Goblin-colored face was revealed.
Yet, this face unmistakably bore a deep expression of terror!
“Terror?!”
A wave of shock surged through Wang Ba’s mind!
He could only watch as it struggled desperately, frantically trying to squeeze into the realm, seemingly fleeing from the terrifying adversary behind it.
Then, the crisp sound of a ‘pop’ was heard.
Soon after, the meatball World Eater that had just driven Wang Ba into retreat was yanked out by the monster behind it, its face full of despair…
What was left revealed a swirl of ghostly blackness intertwined with starlight, along with a fleeting, enormous shadow.
Shrieks of agony and the crunching sound of flesh and bone being devoured faintly echoed through the open realm membrane.
Wang Ba stared blankly at the fissure in the realm membrane.
His heart felt as though it had plunged into icy depths.
At this moment, he truly understood the difficulty of establishing a Taoist Field.
A thousand Dao Domains might only be the most insignificant threshold for opening a Taoist Field; things like Aperture Opening, Purification and Turbidity, and Gate Opening were trivial in comparison. The real challenge lay in surviving wave after wave of tribulations.
And evidently, neither Wanxiang Sect nor he himself was qualified as of yet…
Just then, a black shadow suddenly emerged from the fissure in the realm membrane!
Wang Ba’s heart tightened instantly, and his blade weapon quickly landed before him.
But moments later, he froze in astonishment.
The black shadow not only refrained from attacking but stood upright and emitted an excited voice:
“Yaya!”
“Yaya!”
Hearing this strange yet oddly familiar call, Wang Ba’s entire body trembled, almost unable to believe his ears.
“Could this be…”
But the black shadow quickly sprinted forward.
Then leapt straight into Wang Ba’s embrace.
Emitting delighted cries of ‘Yaya.’
A round head, tiny circular eyes, sleek and thick-padded fur… Who could it be if not the Hole-digging Otter Yaya?
“Yaya is here, so this means…”
Wang Ba instinctively raised his gaze toward the fissure.
A massive azure dragon head was laboriously squeezing partially into the field; upon seeing Wang Ba, its simple and honest-looking eyes instantly brightened!
Wang Ba hesitated slightly before testing hesitantly:
“Fu?!”
The dragon head bobbed with excitement and joy.
Wang Ba was simultaneously startled and ecstatic!
The otter also realized it, quickly turned around, and gestured toward the dragon head with its little paw.
Soon, the dragon appeared to understand, its body shrinking swiftly as a winding Azure Dragon slithered into the field.
But the moment it entered, the Taoist Field began to tremble dramatically, seemingly on the brink of collapse!
Wang Ba jolted awake and quickly shouted:
“Quick, Fu, get out of here first!”
Fu, though simple-minded, wasn’t foolish; realizing his arrival had caused the change, he immediately flew back out.
Yet, he hovered near the fissure in the realm membrane.
The Taoist Field stabilized immediately.
Wang Ba wasted no time calming the disturbances within the Purification and Turbidity caused by the World Eater’s intrusion.
From the fissure came another bout of banging and howling sounds of combat, but soon quieted again.
Amidst these clashes.
The Taoist Field finally solidified completely!
The Taoist Field and the realm membrane were entirely segregated.
Spiritual Energy rapidly began to grow within the Taoist Field.
“Next is Gate Opening!”
Wang Ba took a deep breath and pushed his hands gently against the seemingly invisible walls of the Taoist Field, as if opening a gate.
Though invisible, even Wang Ba could feel the immense resistance as he pushed.
Still, with his profound foundation, the white silk sash around him began to flutter once more; bolstered by boundless Qi and Blood, he managed to push forcefully!
In the next moment, the energy surging within the realm membrane poured into the Taoist Field, further reinforcing its already solid structure.
He quickly followed Jiang Yi’s method for Taoist Field recognition and cast numerous magical seals consecutively.
Soon, a Divine Pattern rose slowly and fused into the Taoist Field.
With a thought, his spirit merged with the field.
Feeling the vast, empty space, an indescribable sense of joy rose in his heart:
“It’s done!”
“The Taoist Field is finally completed!”
Since the celestial change, he had tirelessly schemed for this Taoist Field.
After nearly five hundred years, it was finally built successfully!
At this moment, this joy was like sweet dew, quietly filling the last void in his Nascent Soul Realm.
Above his head, countless seeds of Dao Secret began to materialize, simultaneously blossoming and bearing fruit…
One Dao Domain after another bloomed like flowers!
They overlapped, merged, and became inseparable.
At the same time.
In the sky inside the realm.
Where the Membrane Eye was located.
An unusual chaotic-colored thundercloud slowly gathered, drawing shocked gazes from everyone around.
“Wang Ba, is he about to transcend the Immortal Ascension Tribulation here?”
