Chapter 865 - A Powerful Entrance!

Chapter 865: A Powerful Entrance!
But after some consideration, and after eying his fragile physical form, Wang Baole had no choice but to admit that he had gotten ahead of himself. His sudden advancement in cultivation had led him to a mistaken perception of his own invincibility.
The hex in the ring isn’t the problem. I can break through it if I put a bit more pressure on it. But the paper human cutout inside the ring… is a bit creepy.
 Wang Baole recalled what he had seen earlier and shuddered uncontrollably. He finally understood why the Never-Ending Clan Planet realm cultivator hadn’t unlocked the storage ring even when he had been in extreme danger then.
He was probably worried that upon unlocking the ring… he wouldn’t have to worry about someone else trying to kill him anymore. The paper human cutout would do the deed.
If that’s the case, how did the Never-Ending Clan Planet realm cultivator get his hands on the cutout and store it in his storage ring?
 This was a paradox that filled Wang Baole with doubt and yet confirmed his earlier suspicions. The items inside the storage ring were indeed… incredible!
There’s a high likelihood that some incredible mystic scroll is hidden inside the bottle!
 Wang Baole’s eyes shone with excitement. He was befuddled by the fact that the words
a rich person
had appeared in such a scroll. Nevertheless, he believed that there must be some deeper meaning to those words.
Miracles often arise from the midst of the ordinary…
 Understanding dawned upon Wang Baole. The line had come from the high officials’ autobiographies. He hadn’t understood what it meant in the past, unlike now. He realized that he had just grown wiser again.
With that thought in mind, Wang Baole carefully put away the storage ring. He remained uneasy and thus spent some time casting numerous seals over the storage ring. His heart rested more easily after that.
Just wait until Daddy reaches the Planet realm. I may still not be a match for the paper human cutout, but I’ll be able to find some way to get around it and get something out of the ring.
 Wang Baole snorted. Then, he shut his eyes and remained seated as he allowed his cultivation, mind, and spirit to restore themselves.
Time passed steadily as both his army and the first legion sped through the cosmos and entered the Violet Gold New Dao Sect’s territory.
There should have been a fleet stationed at the borders in this area, but there was no one around. It was as if the doors had been left wide open for anyone to come and go. There were traces of energy from spells that had been cast in the area. Through his Divine Sense, Wang Baole could sense similar energy signatures… that were stronger in the distance.
The intensity of the residual energies caused Wang Baole to sigh in relief. He could tell that they weren’t stagnant and were still active. Stagnant residual energies meant that the battle had ended, while active residual energies meant that the battle was still ongoing.
As long as the battle was still ongoing, they were still in time.
Wang Baole issued an order through his Divine Will and instructed everyone, including the butler and Fairy Ling You, as well as all battleships, to speed up and head straight for the Violet Gold New Dao Sect’s main star.
At that same moment, somewhere beyond the Violet Gold New Dao Sect’s main star, an intense fight that resembled the one that had taken place at the Divine Sovereign Justice Sect was happening as well. However, the situation at the Violet Gold New Dao Sect was slightly better. Even though the Violet Gold New Dao Sect wasn’t as powerful as the Divine Sovereign Justice Sect, it was still holding its ground. This was because the main forces of the Heavenly Spirit Sect had been at the Divine Sovereign Justice Sect.
Both sides were waiting for reinforcements. The cultivator battling the Violet Gold New Dao Sect’s patriarch was the right-hand elder of the Heavenly Spirit Sect. Like the patriarch, he was at the early-stage Planet realm. As a result, despite the thunderous explosions caused by their battle, which rippled loudly across the cosmos, their battle had lapsed into a stalemate. Neither of them could defeat the other, so the battle dragged on.
This was the case for the Spirit Immortal realm cultivators on the battlefield as well. The entire battlefield had descended into a violent tug-of-war. Both sides were filled with anxiety. Even though the death count was relatively low, no one had escaped uninjured.
As time passed, everyone was beginning to feel extreme exhaustion, both mentally and physically. But as long as reinforcements didn’t arrive, the battle had to continue. The Heavenly Spirit Sect had the ability to seal all four corners of the Violet Gold New Dao Sect and stop all voice transmissions from coming through. The Violet Gold New Dao Sect could do the same. The result was seals from both sides being set, isolating the battlefield from the outside world. Unless a messenger made a personal visit to the battlefield, no information from the outside world would be able to reach the people on the battlefield.
As a result, the right-hand elder had no idea that his sect lord and the left-hand elder had failed. He thought that the Divine Sovereign Justice Sect would have fallen at this point and that his sect lord and the left-hand elder would be on their way as planned.
He wasn’t the only one thinking about reinforcements. The patriarch of the Violet Gold New Dao Sect was equally anxious. He had been waiting for reinforcements from the Divine Sovereign Justice Sect. They were his only hope. There was no other way out for him. From the beginning of this battle, the enemy’s only aim had been to corner them. The chances of him escaping on his own were close to zero.
The only way was to battle to the death. Even if the Divine Sovereign Justice Sect couldn’t defeat the invading forces, he had to gamble on the possibility of them being able to force a stalemate. If they could do that, then he was confident that the Heavenly Spirit Sect’s right-hand elder would choose to end their battle in a truce after both he and his troops were exhausted.
This was a contest that pitted their reinforcements and their endurance against each other. It was a contest that tested their endurance and their ability to outlast the other side. One might imagine how terrible a state they were going to end up in.
Thunderous explosions, furious howls, and pained screams pierced the air ceaselessly. Suddenly, light appeared in the distant cosmos. It was faint at first, but it intensified in the next moment. It looked like numerous shooting stars approaching. Everyone on the battlefield was visibly affected when they sensed their arrival.
There was no need for a closer look. The Heavenly Spirit Sect’s right-hand elder could tell immediately that they weren’t reinforcements from the Heavenly Spirit Sect. His face turned stormy. The Violet Gold New Dao Sect’s patriarch looked the complete opposite. Agitation was clear in his eyes. Amidst his excitement, waves of intense spirit energy surged across the cosmos as the shooting stars approached and rushed onto the battlefield!
These shooting stars were Wang Baole’s fleet of self-destructing battleships and the Divine Sovereign Justice Sect’s first legion. They sliced through the cosmos like blades, gliding across the dark space and sliding straight into the fight like battle-ready swords. Numerous cultivators from the Divine Sovereign Justice Sect’s first legion, Wang Baole’s hundred thousand puppets, and his twelve puppet emperors rushed out of their battleships and charged at the Heavenly Spirit Sect under the butler’s command!
The Divine Sovereign Justice Sect’s butler immediately unleashed his cultivation when he stepped out of his battleship, and his voice reverberated throughout the battlefield.

The Heavenly Spirit Sect’s left-hand elder has been slain, and their sect lord has been heavily wounded. Their armies have been decimated, with countless killed or forced to flee. The Divine Sovereign Justice Sect has won a triumphant victory. On the orders of our patriarch, we have come in aid of the Violet Gold New Dao Sect!

The arrival of the Divine Sovereign Justice Sect sent emotions rippling across the faces of the Heavenly Spirit Sect cultivators, who had been exhausted from a long battle. Their minds began to buzz loudly. Their first reaction was absolute denial. What the butler had just said was impossible. But… the Divine Sovereign Justice Sect was there. Their arrival could only mean one thing. The forces invading the Divine Sovereign Justice Sect had fallen.
Such unsettling of hearts and minds on a battlefield was a terrifying thing. Even the right-hand elder was similarly affected. However, he quickly squashed whatever fears he felt and yelled.

Nonsense, the fiends from the Violet Gold New Dao Sect have carved a small army from their main forces and are trying to use this small force to deceive and confuse us!
The right-hand elder unleashed his cultivation as he roared, stemming his army’s panic forcefully while charging at the butler and attempting to slay the latter at all costs. He froze in his tracks when he heard the long burst of laughter from the Violet Gold New Dao Sect’s patriarch.
Wang Baole had stirred and flown out of his Dharmic Battleship. He gazed at the battlefield from afar, raised his right hand, and pointed casually. A burst of wind erupted from his finger and shot out, landing some distance from him, in the middle of two Spirit Immortal realm cultivators in the midst of battle.
The Spirit Immortal realm cultivator from the Violet Gold New Dao Sect was someone Wang Baole recognized. He was the Black Rift Legion commander who had taken the former Ink Dragon Legion commander under his wing and tried to kill Wang Baole. He was in a dangerous spot now and might not survive the next few seconds.
Wang Baole’s attack, bolstered by his rich reservoirs of cultivation, came blasting their way. The early-stage Spirit Immortal realm cultivator from the Heavenly Spirit Sect turned pale with alarm and retreated hastily. Nevertheless, he was still caught by the attack and spat out a mouthful of blood in his retreat. The Black Rift Legion commander’s face was pale too. He fell back immediately and turned towards his savior, shuddering and widening his eyes when he saw Wang Baole. His face was filled with incredulity.
Wang Baole ignored the Black Rift Legion commander. Saving him had been a matter of convenience. He looked up into the cosmos and stared at the two Planet realm cultivators in fierce battle. His eyes narrowed.
He had thought about things carefully on his way there. He had come to the Violet Gold New Dao Sect’s aid purely for strategic purposes. However, he still disliked them. That was why he had decided that he was going to find an opportunity to make a killing off them during this rescue mission.
