Chapter 281: Divine Armament Red Star!

At the same time, somewhere deep below the ground, a roar from the core of the moon’s dark side was spreading in all directions and reverberating in the sky. Sound waves were formed, and they swept through the entire moon.

The sound took everybody by surprise. When it reached one’s ears, one could vaguely feel an indescribable sense of sadness. It was like the final scream at the end of one’s life, as if one was forcing open his eyes to take one last look at his loved ones. It was a kind of sadness similar to seeing one’s home being destroyed while they survived. It was the sadness that accompanied the madness when one didn’t have the strength for revenge.

The moment the sound was produced, the entire moon shook, and this was needless to say for the bases of the various factions that were built on it. The ones who felt the strongest vibration were the Federation elites who were attacking the array formation under the lead of Federation President Duan Muque outside the boundaries of the array formation.

When they heard the thunderous sound, they were all taken aback. Some of them even screamed out of surprise.

“Has the Night Immortal King awakened?”

“This sound… Compared to the last time it was awakened, this sound is even more frightening. Gosh! Didn’t it die a long time ago and become a dormant corpse? Could it be that it was still able to train itself?”

“This is the revival of its cultivation. Every time the Night Immortal King falls into a slumber, its cultivation would be partially restored!” The people outside the array formation were immensely shocked. From the eyes of the Federation President, Duan Muque, a bright glow could be seen. His breathing quickened slightly, and a look of determination flashed across his eyes. He raised his right hand and grasped!

“Come!”

Upon saying that word, a wave seemed to emerge from all directions. On Earth, within Federation City, a blinding flash glowed from Duan Muque’s sculpture, forming a ray of light that shot into the sky.

It could be seen that there was a flying dagger within the ray of light!

Every part of the flying dagger was red. When it appeared, a thunderous boom exploded in the sky, which also turned blood red. All the vegetation, all the infrastructure, and everything between heaven and earth were instantly enveloped in a red hue in that instant!

There was also an extremely imposing vibe that spread, as if it were the mightiest force ever produced. All forms of life, regardless of their level of cultivation, could sense it. Anywhere in the world, one would feel an irresistible urge to pray to it at that very moment.

The one that was being so earnestly prayed to by the masses was the one and only Divine Armament in the Federation!

It’s name was… Red Star!

One could clearly see across the starry sky that at that moment, every possible part of Earth seemed to have been dyed red within the blink of an eye. After that, the flying dagger charged towards the skies at a fast speed, with a bright red glow trailing behind it like a red hurricane as it emerged from Earth!

Its target location was the moon. More specifically, it was headed towards the Federation President, Duan Muque, who now had his arms raised!

Outside the array formation, everyone was thrown into a flurry. As Duan Muque decisively summoned the Divine Armament, within the tunnels deep underground on the moon’s dark side, someone was scared out of his wits. The giant tree’s humanoid manifestation as a black-robed middle-aged man immediately retracted his raised right hand and retreated, fearful that he would agitate Wang Baole if he neared him after being jolted to his senses by Wang Baole’s command and the Night Immortal King’s shrill roar. At the same time, he screamed loudly.

“Fellow Daoist Wang, don’t be rash! Please don’t be rash! Let’s discuss this peacefully!”

Wang Baole had never imagined that simply driving the green lotus to germination could agitate the Night Immortal King so strongly. Therefore, he hurriedly stabilized the green lotus. As the Night Immortal King’s roar softened, he looked towards the nervous black-robed middle-aged man that had been formed from the giant tree.

“Now, the fruit would no longer be split amongst three sides. There are only two of us. I don’t demand much, as I just want half of it!”

The black-robed middle-aged man formed from the giant tree looked deeply at Wang Baole. He had a deep impression of Wang Baole. Even though that impression was derived from the people that he had assimilated, it was no different from him experiencing it first hand.

Initially, he had planned to kill Wang Baole directly. However, right now, as Wang Baole displayed capabilities that posed a threat to him, he had no choice but to accept the request, despite his unwillingness to do so.

In reality, he couldn’t afford to waste more time. The black-robed middle-aged man formed from the giant tree inhaled deeply and nodded his head unwillingly. He raised his right hand and pressed it directly on the fruit. That made his hair stand. He immediately began absorbing it, without paying further attention to Wang Baole.

Wang Baole narrowed his eyes, similarly raising his hand and pressing it on the fruit, all the while keeping his eyes on the black-robed middle-aged man formed from the giant tree. The devouring seed within his body was activated and unleashed, and instantly, an astonishing suction force flowed through Wang Baole’s palm as he absorbed the fruit.

The fruit vibrated vigorously. An invisible cavity appeared to be formed as currents of a viscous flow of life were released continuously and instantly from the fruit, flowing towards Wang Baole before being absorbed into his body and the devouring seed.

Wang Baole’s body trembled. He quickly realized that something was amiss, as the extremely viscous flow of life seemed to be partitioned by the devouring seed the moment it was absorbed into two portions!

One portion remained as the viscous flow of life, while the other portion was made up of drops of black dew!

The dew clearly harnessed some form of demonic force, one that seemed to be both poisonous and inhibitory at the same time. That made Wang Baole surprised as he realized that there was something wrong with the fruit!

Is this the true nature of the fruit, or did someone do something to it? Wang Baole’s breathing quickened as he looked towards the black-robed middle-aged man formed from the giant tree. However, the youth didn’t seem to have noticed anything peculiar with the fruit, as he continued to absorb it.

This made Wang Baole somewhat doubtful. As he hesitated, the green lotus inside the devouring seed suddenly began to shake violently. The life force that had been absorbed was sucked towards it, and even the poisonous venom was being voraciously taken up by it!

It appeared as if the poisonous venom was like a supplement. The green lotus turned a jadeite green, and even its wilted leaves were visibly rejuvenated!

It can take up the poisonous venom as well? Wang Baole was dumbfounded with delight.

That was not all. As the devouring seed continued absorbing and as the fruit speedily dried up, Wang Baole was surprised to find out that the green lotus was also growing during this absorption process. Even though the process was slow, it was visibly growing bigger. It was neither Spirit Qi nor the sign of life that was flowing from within the green lotus. Wang Baole couldn’t put a finger on what it was, but he could clearly feel that the force that had been flowing out was quickly integrating with his physical body!

The integration occurred with that force acting as a form of nourishment. A sensation of strength and ferocity grew stronger in his heart. His breathing was so rapid that it became slightly destabilized. In this short period of time, his physical strength seemed to have increased two-fold!

Wang Baole’s physical body had always been strong. Now that his strength had been further boosted, it made him a rarity amongst the Foundation Establishment cultivators. However, this wasn’t the end of the strengthening process!

As the absorption continued and the green lotus continued to grow, Wang Baole’s physical body grew even stronger. Regardless of whether it was his bones or flesh and blood, everything seemed to have evolved to a higher level!

Gosh! Is the green lotus defying limits, or is the fruit itself just abnormal… Wang Baole took a deep breath and swallowed. He felt incredulous, and at the same time, the black-robed middle-aged man standing opposite him began cursing under his breath, he stared with his eyes so wide that they were almost falling out of their sockets.

This *sshole! How could he absorb so quickly… I recall now, when he was in Coulomb Basin previously, he depended on some sort of absorption method…. The black-robed middle-aged man formed from the tree was on the brink of going crazy. His eyes had grown bloodshot from all the force he was using to absorb the fruit. He could feel that his level of cultivation was slowly being evolved. Following this process, he would be able to achieve a breakthrough in his cultivation in no time, reaching the Nascent Soul realm that no one within the different factions on earth had managed to!

The only issue was that… Wang Baole was probably the nemesis of the giant tree. The moment where the giant tree filled with an uncontrollable desire finally saw a glimpse of hope, the green lotus within Wang Baole’s body was also growing as the flow of life was being absorbed. As it grew, a lotus seed head emerged from it. The lotus seed head glowed brightly as if the lotus seeds were about to be produced.

The force of the devouring seed within Wang Baole’s body was being boosted by the minute. It was growing at such a speed that it made the black-robed middle-aged man gasp in shock!

As loud booms emerged and the fruit dried up at increasing speed, Wang Baole and the black-robed middle-aged man fought over the life source within it. The middle-aged man, being ten times slower, couldn’t catch up to Wang Baole!

Impossible! The black-robed middle-aged man formed from the giant tree was screaming angrily in his heart while green veins bulged out from his forehead. At that moment, within Wang Baole’s lotus, the first lotus seed appeared.

There was now approximately a fifteen-fold difference in speed between the two men.

As the second, third, and fourth lotus seed emerged, the difference in speed reached thirty times.

Wang Baole was immensely surprised himself. On the one hand, he felt that the black-robed middle-aged man had grown even stronger, and to some extent had reached a frightening level. On the other hand, there was something peculiar about the facial expression of the middle-aged man. His face was so black that ink might be able to flow from it if he were to squeeze it.

Excuse me, shall we awaken the Night Immortal King? I think that this giant tree was suppressed so much that it has become angry… Just as Wang Baole was feeling frightened, he decided to make the first move to wake the Night Immortal King that was in deep slumber. At the same time, the Divine Armament flying dagger that had stained everything red neared, charging towards Federation President Duan Muque.

As it circled one full round and evoked a bloody glow that shot into the skies, it dashed towards the Mystic Luna Realm’s array formation!

It grew nearer and nearer until it made contact with the array formation on the Mystic Luna Realm!

Boom!
