Chapter 183
Chapter 183: Where is Wang Jie?
Indeed, the situation was as expected. If one didn’t use Wang Jie himself as the standard but instead compared him to ordinary lock force cultivators, he would indeed be considered at the full star realm. His lock force capacity was on par with an average cultivator who had reached the full star realm.
But for Wang Jie, it was far from enough.
The full star realm standard was absorbing an entire planet, but the size of the planet varied from person to person.
For Wang Jie, the planet he aimed to absorb had to exceed the standards of others.
This Devour star was undoubtedly beyond his standard, but its lock force was sufficient.
Wang Jie exhaled, feeling a strong sense of possessiveness toward the Devour star. However, he was also prepared for the worst. If he couldn’t obtain it, he would find a way to buy it.
He continued piloting the ship at a low speed, searching for other disciples and those two pieces of jade.
But no one had mentioned where the jade might be.
There was no destination. But in a way, that was a blessing, for if there had been, the wandering star realm would have snatched it away immediately.
Half a day later, he saw the remains of a ship in the distance and the bodies of disciples. The battle for the jade had been fierce.
Soon after, in the high skies, two disciples were fighting—both at the star breaking realm.
Wang Jie watched calmly. There was no need for star breaking realm cultivators to be here. It was far too dangerous.
He had seen several bodies on his journey—those of star breaking realm cultivators. A full star realm cultivator could still defend themselves.
The next day, a voice came through, and Wang Jie connected.
“Senior brothers and sisters, we have news about the jade stones.”
Wang Jie raised an eyebrow—finally, some leads.
Around him, in other ships, similar voices came through. Someone was about to share the location of the jade.
“The first piece of jade has appeared at this location.”
Wang Jie looked at the coordinates the other person provided, his face darkening—Shen Wang ship.
“The one who took the jade is… Wang Jie.”
“He is a lock force cultivator. If any senior brothers or sisters find him, please do not engage lightly. This person is a rare genius in the lock force realm, able to battle against wandering star realm with his star breaking realm power. Be careful not to take action lightly. Remember, do not act rashly.”
Wang Jie’s face grew grim. He hadn’t even gotten the jade, yet someone was stirring things up, making him the target of everyone.
This person was truly underhanded.
More voices came through.
“Wang Jie? A lock force cultivator, what could he possibly do? How dare he come here to snatch it? Kill him quickly.”
“This person’s combat strength may be equal to an ordinary wandering star realm, but if he dares to compete for the Devour star, challenge us, we’ll make him beg for mercy in the future.”
“Wang Jie? This name sounds familiar… Wasn’t there a lot of talk about him recently?”
Many voices were discussing.
If the ship opened its signal, the entire Devour star could hear it.
At this moment, many were using their ships to converse, and Wang Jie’s identity became clearer, with more enemies arising.
“I’m Yun Ju. A bounty is now placed on Wang Jie’s head. Kill him, and you will receive ten billion starstones. If you bring me his information, I’ll reward you with one billion starstones.”
“Yun Ju is here too?”
“Didn’t expect even the White Wanderer to come. How can anyone still fight for Devour star now?”
“You really plan to fight for Devour star? I’ve heard even the Six Dao Wanderer might come.”
Wang Jie’s mind stirred. Six Dao Wanderer? Could it be Mo Wan Yin? She hadn’t arrived yet.
The competition had begun, but no one said it was too late to join. This was a battlefield, and anyone could arrive at any time.
“Six Dao Wanderer? Impossible. If any of them comes, no one else will have a chance.”
“Hmph, there are others from Zhi Family as well. This is no simple matter. I advise everyone to leave if they can, don’t risk your lives here.”
“Leave if you want, but I’ll deal with that lock force cultivator first.”
Far away, Zhi Shu sat in a delicate ship. The ship was small, but its materials and craftsmanship were no less impressive than Wang Jie’s Shen Wang ship.
She listened to the discussions around her, holding a crystalline drink in her hand, and sneered. “This person truly dares to come. His courage is commendable, but it seems I won’t need to dirty my hands after all.” After speaking, she directed her ship toward Shen Wang’s direction.
Wang Jie listened for a while in the ship. He then took out the nine form diagram, walked over, and transformed into Qiu Chou.
They wanted to surround him? They’d have to find him first.
He contacted the nearby ships’ occupants. “Anyone around? Let’s team up and hunt down Wang Jie.”
A response came quickly. “I agree. This person is being seriously pursued by the Deacon Hall, so he’s definitely not simple. We mustn’t underestimate him.”
“I agree as well.”
“Where shall we meet?”
“Who are you?”
“Your humble servant, Qiu Chou. Though my cultivation is not high, I’ve seen this person before, and I have a special method to track him. As long as he’s within a certain range, he can’t escape.”
“Alright, we’ll follow your lead. Let’s hunt down Wang Jie together.”
“Together.”
Wang Jie used his star force to cloak his lock force with the thousand spirit armor and then set off toward the agreed meeting point.
Soon, one cultivator after another joined up.
Among them were three full star realm cultivators and five at the star breaking realm. Wang Jie, in his Qiu Chou form, also appeared to be at the star breaking realm, but since he claimed he could track Wang Jie, others naturally followed his lead and moved according to his directions.
All of them boarded a single ship.
Along the way, they encountered others, but seeing how many of them there were, the others simply avoided them.
They also encountered a wandering star realm cultivator—the same one Wang Jie had seen when he entered Devour star. This person was domineering and forcibly boarded the ship to search. He soon left, and though the others were displeased, no one dared to speak up.
Wang Jie remained calm. With so many people around, who could find him?
Several days later, another piece of news spread across Devour star.
A jade token had fallen into Li Cai’s hands.
“How did it end up in Li Cai’s hands? Who can take it now?”
“Li Cai?”
“Don’t you know Li Cai?”
“I’ve been in seclusion for years and don’t know much about the outside world.”
“Li Cai is the son of Elder Li Tong He from the Elder’s Court. He’s young but already a wandering star realm expert, on par with the black wanderer and white wanderer. He’s been consuming Thunder Sealing Pills since childhood and has now cultivated a crimson thunder pattern. More importantly, he’s from the Heavenly Light Pavilion.”
“Heavenly Light Pavilion? Did he cultivate the Stacking Heavenly Light Star Method?”
“Yes, impressive, right?”
“Really talented, how are we supposed to fight him?”
Wang Jie listened to the discussions around him, frowning. The Stacking Heavenly Light Star Method and crimson thunder pattern were indeed troublesome.
Had he really consumed Thunder Sealing Pills since childhood? Reaching the crimson thunder pattern was normal for him. Don’t be fooled by the fact that he reached it in a year—Wang Jie’s physical body was far stronger than ordinary people’s, having surpassed limits during the ten-seal stage. Star breaking realm had also been continuously increasing, and Li Cai would seem ordinary next to him.
An average cultivator, if not lacking in money, could only consume Thunder Sealing Pills one by one, starting from the star breaking realm version. After so many years, he had only reached the crimson thunder pattern.
If someone like Shu Mu Night had been consuming Thunder Sealing Pills from childhood, they would have surpassed the limits of the thunder pattern long ago.
Thunder Sealing Pills had a limit. They couldn’t endlessly enhance the thunder pattern.
Neither Wang Jie nor Li Cai had reached that limit.
But the crimson thunder pattern was enough.
This was the kind of disciple that Black White Heaven produced with powerful backgrounds.
The battle for Devour star had gradually quieted from its initial intensity to now a deadly silence. Everyone was waiting for an opportunity.
Wandering star realm cultivators wanted to seize the jade from Li Cai’s hands.
Others were still searching for Wang Jie.
Where the hell had Wang Jie gone? This was the question on everyone’s mind.
The Shen Wang ship had been found long ago, but even after being turned upside down, there was no trace of Wang Jie. It was as if he had vanished completely.
Soon, someone suggested dividing the star into zones, gradually advancing, and using star force to search every corner of Devour star to find Wang Jie.
They believed that if Wang Jie was hiding in a corner, no one could find him unless he came out. The only solution was to go step by step.
This method received the approval of most people.
They had to find the other jade stone, or the competition for Devour star would never end. The longer this dragged on, the more dangerous it became.
Wang Jie suspected that someone had already obtained the other jade stone. This person was either targeting Li Cai to compete for the Devour star, or was using the jade to force him into revealing himself and killing him. The latter possibility seemed more likely.
Since Zhi Qing had set up a trap to hunt him, preparations had surely been made.
Perhaps, from the beginning, only one jade stone had been released.
Wang Jie’s expression grew solemn as he pondered.
“Qiu brother, what do you think?” someone asked.
Wang Jie replied, “I agree, we should advance step by step. Time is of the essence. We must find Wang Jie first.”
“Alright, we’ll set the coordinates now. Every area we’ve searched must be marked on the map, for future reference.”
“Good, let’s begin.”
“Qiu brother, you don’t need to search. Focus on sensing that person’s location.”
Wang Jie gladly accepted.
As most people began searching Devour star, the star map was slowly filled out. Of course, compared to the vastness of Devour star, it was still a small portion, but they would eventually finish searching completely.
Wang Jie wasn’t in a hurry. He quietly waited.
Until the other jade stone appeared, no one could act rashly.
Several days later, three full star realm cultivators arrived, led by a man named Zhong Yu.
“Senior brother Zhong?” someone asked.
The others quickly greeted him, even though most didn’t recognize him.
Wang Jie also saluted.
The leader of the greeting party was from the full star realm, the highest cultivation level among their group.
Zhong Yu nodded, his gaze sweeping over the group. “Continue advancing. If you encounter that lock force cultivator, don’t engage. Just report his location to me. Senior Brother Ye Huang will reward you with one billion starstones, and in the future, you can join Senior Brother Ye Huang’s sect.”
The full star realm cultivator replied respectfully, “Yes, we will report to senior brother.”
After speaking, Zhong Yu left.
“Senior brother, who is this Zhong Yu?” someone asked.
“Didn’t you hear of Senior Brother Ye Huang’s name? He’s one of the black wanderers, a disciple of the Night Realm Lord. Zhong Yu senior brother is one of Senior Brother Ye Huang’s people.”
“It looks like Senior Brother Ye Huang is here too.”
“I think we should leave Devour star. We can’t participate in this contest for such a lordly object.”
No one disagreed.
Two days later, a man named Huo Xiao arrived and said nearly the same thing, but replaced Senior Brother Ye Huang’s name with Yun Ju.
This time, no one asked further.
Yun Ju’s name was evidently bigger than Ye Huang’s.
Suddenly, the ground shook. The sky in the distance seemed scorched, thunder rumbling continuously.
Wang Jie gazed into the distance. The power readings from the battle strength detector spiked and quickly surpassed two hundred thousand, still climbing.
