Chapter 1581: Chapter 102 Dragon Elephant_2

The massive and hideous fish-head soared into the sky!

The pig-body left behind was swiftly sliced by the trailing invisible blade light, cut so thoroughly it could no longer be divided further.

Yet the grotesque fish-head, now airborne, spat another bubble in its sinister rage.

The bubble collided precisely with the previous one it had released, and in an instant, a dazzling light erupted!

A colossal explosion was imminent!

Bathed in the radiant glow, the figure in the green robes looked slightly frosty:

“How do you know I love eating fish-heads?”

With a raise of his hand, a chaos-colored palm blossomed like a flower, closing together just before the bubbles could detonate.

Boom!

A muffled and unusually powerful blast shook the entire realm membrane space in an instant!

The realm membrane space crumbled once again.

The Black Armored Strongman in the distance, who had just straightened his spine, bent over abruptly once more!

Still, the explosion failed to penetrate the chaos-enveloped palm.

In mid-air, witnessing this scene, the hideous fish-head’s dead-fish eyes flashed with a trace of shock and terror.

At last it became afraid, frantically attempting to flee back to the Outer Realm through the crack in the realm barrier.

But in the next moment, a blade light flashed through.

The fish-head was instantly cleaved in two.

A Dao Domain projection on its body collapsed explosively.

Its form quickly dissolved, carrying Dao Intention as it transformed into countless streams of chaos-colored Qi, scattering in all directions.

This World Eater, having just broken into the Inner Realm, eager to feast greedily, died soundlessly mere steps from the entrance.

Even more pitifully compared to the mantis-like World Eater that came before it.

And because it died within the realm barrier itself, its death did not elicit the slightest shift in the Will of the Heaven and Earth.

However, those watching—Liang Wuji, Jiang Yi, Pang Xiu—felt nothing but astonishment in their hearts.

“This World Eater was similar to the previous one, likely middle-stage Class V, yet it couldn’t withstand two strikes from Wang Ba?”

Jiang Yi glanced at the ribbon floating behind Wang Ba’s back, pondering:

“Wang Ba’s mastery of this Class IV Dao Soldier is undeniably high. He’s likely refined it to the ‘peak’ stage. Simply judging by brute force, he’s likely not far from late-stage Immortal Ascension; otherwise, it wouldn’t be possible to unleash such power with a single move… I truly don’t know how he trained such extraordinary control.”

Class IV Dao Soldiers can theoretically be wielded by Nascent Soul cultivators, but in practice, the requirement for soul strength and control is far too demanding. Even Nascent Soul Perfect practitioners typically manage no more than the ‘minor accomplishment’ stage, which aligns roughly with the initial level of Immortal Ascension.

Wang Ba, wielding this Moro Giant Elephant Dao Soldier, easily supported such a massive realm membrane space while also effortlessly wielding forceful blades to decapitate World Eaters of an equal Class V tier. The resilience of his physical body is simply beyond comprehension, and it is obvious his mastery of the Dao Soldier has reached the absolute limit possible for a Class IV Dao Soldier.

That is, nearing late-stage Immortal Ascension tier.

Though, it’s only ‘nearing.’

Beyond that lies true late-stage Immortal Ascension and Immortal Ascension Perfection, which cannot simply be achieved by stacking numbers.

Because, whereas early and middle stages of Immortal Ascension still emphasize the accumulation and supplementation of Dao Domain and mana, once one reaches late-stage, the Dao Domain has essentially reached completion, and mana has been condensed to the utmost limit of that realm. With a completed Dao Domain, Divinity Transformation cultivators can exploit their environment to the extreme limits of their stage.

The difference between those stages is qualitative.

Still, compared to the shock of the other cultivators.

In the primitive Demonic Sect, the elder who had been watching the changes in the realm membrane space all along, now wore a contemplative look:

“The Jin realm’s foundations remain as deep as ever. In just a few years, they’ve recovered so many Immortal Ascension cultivators… But what is Wang Ba truly aiming for? Is he attempting to carve out a space within this realm membrane for self-preservation?”

“Why would he do this? Is it truly to avoid the world?”

“No, he’s not that kind of person. I refuse to believe he’d do such a thing.”

Watching Wang Ba and the Outer Realm monsters he had so effortlessly slain, Han Yanzi furrowed his brow deeply.

At the same time.

Within the depths of the Northern Ice Abyss on the Northsea Continent.

A young figure’s expression shifted slightly, revealing a trace of disappointment:

“Using Spirit Beasts and Dao Soldiers to deal with World Eaters…”

While it was true the World Eater was dealt with, it wasn’t in the way it desired.

It hoped Wang Ba could achieve this solely through his own means, rather than relying on external resources.

After all, Class IV Dao Soldiers are accessible, but what of Class V? And Class VI?

To aid it in breaking free, at minimum, a Class VI or even Class VII Dao Soldier would be required—yet could such Dao Soldiers truly exist?

Though not heavily researched, it knew such possibilities were nearly unrealistic.

The higher the tiers, the fewer they inevitably become.

Which meant the method of Dao Soldiers could only have limited practicality within mid-tier cultivation stages.

“Forget it, let’s keep observing for now. Suitable candidates are far too rare.”

The youth shook its head slightly with a hint of helplessness.

Suddenly, it was struck by a thought, and its gaze shifted as though intrigued:

“This little friend might be in for some hardship… though, let’s give it more time.”

…

Inside the realm membrane space.

Wang Ba, having just slain the fish-headed World Eater with two strikes, wielded his blade, preparing to sever the earlier mantis-like World Eater.

Suddenly, Patriarch Panji’s voice rang out excitedly:

“Little Friend Wang, the backlash from the realm barrier has eased!”

“It’s eased?!”

Wang Ba froze for a moment, quickly sensing the situation. Sure enough, he noticed the previously collapsing space had slowed its pace of disintegration.

Nearby, the Black Armored Strongman also straightened upright once again.

Deeply puzzled in his heart:

“It was so intense just now—why has it suddenly calmed?”

All at once, he recalled the chaotic Dao Intention and Chaos Origin Substance that had dispersed into the surroundings after the fish-headed World Eater’s death.
