If one went by the distance between it and the Eternal Star, the planet that Wang Baole and the fifth elder went to was number three . Its size was similar to that of the Earth, and one could see that this was once a planet bursting with life . One could even make out the specks of green vegetative cover that seemed to embellish the planetâs surface . However⊠that was merely an embellishment . On the surface of this planet, there were hundreds of thousands of craters . A small crater was at least a hundred thousand feet wide, while a large one was as big as a city .
 One would think these craters were created by meteorites . But as they got closer, as Wang Baole and the fifth elder saw everything, they discovered that⊠in those craters, there were numerous pools of flesh and blood!
 The flesh and blood looked like corpses, though as part of them became mush, they started looking like blood-colored pools of mud . From the floating limbs, one could see that there were human-like organisms in there, while some were ferocious beasts . There were even some that looked like they were from other civilizations . One could even occasionally see a floating head, and each head had an aggrieved expression . It was obvious that they had gone through an unimaginably horrifying event when they were alive .
If that was it, with the experience of Wang Baole and the fifth elder, they wouldnât be shocked . But⊠in the mush of the crater, there were numerous thick purple blood vessels!
These blood vessels seemed to be absorbing nutrients from the mush in the crater . They spread outwards, connecting all the craters on the planet, seemingly forming a large purple network . In this network formed by the purple blood vessels, there were millions of points on which large tumors grew!
 Some of these tumors were wriggling, while others seemed to be asleep . Some broke open just as Wang Baole and the fifth elder looked towards them, and out of them crawled horrifying human-like, multi-legged organisms!
 These organisms had black bodies and looked like centipedes . They let out screeches as they crawled out and headed directly towards the nearest crater . As they neared a crater, they burrowed into it, opened their mouths, and kept absorbing . As they absorbed, their life force increased significantly .  This scene made the scalps of the Holy Crest Sect disciples behind Wang Baole numb . The fifth elder narrowed his pupils and mumbled softly beside Wang Baole .
 âNot a local mutant civilization⊠this is obviously a foreign mutant civilization!â
 âForeign mutants?â Wang Baole gazed at the purple network on the planetâs surface, narrowed his eyes, and asked .
 âIn a sense, if a planet is invaded by a foreign mutant civilization, it could be considered a calamity . Once they appear, nearby star systems will be alerted immediately . If the invasion can be settled, they will use all of their might to try and eliminate the enemy . If they cannot do so, they will join forces with other nearby star systems to suppress the enemy . â
 Their method of invasion differed according to the level of the civilizationâs sentience . If the civilization was highly sentient, they would go out to look for food on their own . As for those with low levels of sentience, they would often hide their young in meteorites . That, or become parasites and hide in the bodies of other organisms . This was how they traveled to other star systems .
Normally, they traveled in groups . As a meteorite crashed into a civilization, they would become parasites within the planet to absorb nutrients . They would then kill off all life in that civilization, using it to grow and develop .
As he listened, a glint flashed through Wang Baoleâs eyes . The fifth elder beside him placed all of his attention on the planet below and didnât notice the glint in Wang Baoleâs eyes . That was especially so when he noticed that the centipede-like mutants started with auras that werenât strong, despite them growing in strength very quickly . He could hardly hide the excitement he felt . âThis star systemâs civilizations must have been hit by meteorites containing the young of mutants, resulting in the extinction of their entire civilization . However, this is great news for us!â
 âTheir starting auras are only at the Qi Condensation level . According to ancient literature, mutants at this sentience level can reach no higher than the Planet realm . At the same time, they have extremely low Spirit Intelligence when theyâre born . Long Nanzi, our luck is pretty good this time!â As he spoke, the fifth elder started laughing . He raised his right hand to point at the planet below as he looked towards Wang Baole .
âLow Spirit Intelligence, and mainly feeding on flesh and blood . Mutants with this trait only desire flesh and blood, so they donât care about Spirit Stones or materials used for refinement at all . Therefore, to us, this star system is a treasure trove!â
âLetâs split up after we get to the planet . Just be careful not to disrupt their feeding . Since our interests donât conflict, there shouldnât be conflict as long as weâre cautious . At the same time, I suggest that the two of us each bring back some young of this mutant civilization . If we use them on other weak civilizations in the future, it will be as though we control a Divine Armament!â said the fifth elder . He then suddenly took out a shining voice transmission jade slip from his storage bag, laughing after he squeezed it .
âThe Grand Supreme Elder has sent a voice transmission . Heâs not the Grand Supreme Elder for nothing, heâs vicious! Long Nanzi, Iâm going down first, see you in half a month!â As he spoke, the fifth elder laughed, gathered up the Holy Crest Sect disciples that followed him, and bolted towards the planet below .
 Wang Baole watched the fifth elder leave and took a closer look at the craters on the planet . A strange glow appeared in Wang Baoleâs eyes as they narrowed . Afterward, he took out Long Nanziâs voice transmission jade slip, infused his consciousness, and immediately heard the Holy Crest Sectâs Grand Supreme Elderâs voice in his head .
âAttention all elders, as you collect resources, capture some of the young of these mutants . Take note that you shouldnât capture too many . Each person shouldnât capture more than one hundred young . In addition, we will not declare war on the mutants, and this should be kept strictly confidential . I will leave a mark here to aid future positioning . Once these mutants finish eating this civilization, they will surely move on to the next civilization . From now on, this shall be our road to riches!â âNo war with the mutants?â Wang Baole snickered, and the strange glow in his eyes became more intense . During the Federationâs battle with the Vast Expanse Dao Palace, and after the various massacres, his Demonic Eye Art had already reached its final stage . One could say⊠once he broke through this final stage, he would achieve a breakthrough in his cultivation and reach the Soul Conduit realm!
 Because of the battle, he chose the Demonic Eye Art after taking combat strength into account . If he wanted to achieve a breakthrough, he would have to kill an arbitrarily large amount of people, but the ceasefire between the Federation and Vast Expanse Dao Palace meant he had nowhere to kill . Afterwards, he left alongside his senior brother . Hence, although he could hold his own against those in the late-stage of the Soul Conduit realm, his cultivation still remained at the perfected Nascent Soul realm .
âSlaughter, ehâŠâ A malicious aura quickly spread from Wang Baoleâs body, causing the expressions of the Holy Crest Sect disciples who followed him to change . They all retreated and looked at Wang Baole with fear .
Wang Baole ignored the people behind him, and his malicious aura didnât die down . Instead, it became more intense as he strengthened his resolve . The malicious aura exploded forth after a few breaths and became an intense killing intent .
 Once this killing intent spread, there was a disturbance in the cosmos, and it started to warp . All the Holy Crest Sect disciples behind him were shocked by this sight . In their eyes, it seemed as though Wang Baole was a sharp sword pulled from its sheath .
Not waiting for them to react, Wang Baole charged forward with a flick of his body .
 He was like a comet soaring through the planetâs thin atmosphere . He headed straight for a crater on the planetâs surface, and the aura on his body exploded forth . With a gesture using his right hand, a part of the Thearch Armor immediately appeared, becoming a Divine Armament . He slashed towards the crater as big as half a city that he was nearing .
 The earth shook, and the heavens transformed as the saber glint coming from Wang Baole, as well as his Divine Armament, became a tremendous force . Immediately, the flesh and blood in the crater below shook, and countless mutant centipedes of various sizes came out in droves . Some stayed within the crater, while others climbed to the edge of it, but they all looked up at the sky and let out shrill screeches .
As the screeches sounded, the glint of Wang Baoleâs Divine Armament descended onto the planet, causing the land to shake . The combat strength of Wang Baole and the Divine Armament, combined with the addition of the planets and Thearch Armor, made Wang Baoleâs saber glint seem like the sun . It incinerated and obliterated everything in its path .
 Rumbles echoed throughout the planet, and the vibrations spread towards the surroundings through the land, obliterating the crater . Only Wang Baole stood in mid-air . His hair fluttered in the wind, and he looked like a demon as he raised his head to take a deep breath .
Behind him, the demonic eye transmogrified and had a sense of excitement that was previously unseen . It let out a bloodthirsty and sinister laugh in Wang Baoleâs mind .
 However, under Wang Baoleâs Illusory Essence Art, none of this could be seen by outsiders!
