514: Chapter 514 The Backlash of the Gluttonous Bloodline! She touched something she shouldn't have!
"Buzz—!"
Wang Baobao's body gave a slight, imperceptible tremor.
The light in her large, dark eyes, which were filled with innocence and greed, was drained in an instant.
All the spirit and liveliness, every bit of individual consciousness belonging to "Wang Baobao," receded in this moment, sinking into an endless abyss.
Those eyes became hollow, like two pieces of the purest glazed glass, no longer reflecting any light from the outside world.
Immediately after.
Deep within those hollow pupils, an indescribable dark-golden vertical slit pupil slowly opened.
Those were not the eyes any living creature should possess.
It was a terrifying will that had slumbered for eons; after an ant had used clumsy tricks to touch its reverse scale, it had impatiently peeled back a corner of its eyelid.
From the fingertips Lin Wan had placed on Wang Baobao's forehead, a sensation came that caused her Dao Heart to instantly crack.
Her Hundred Flowers Heart-Eroding Gu, that wisp of Emerald Spiritual Silk capable of corroding the Divine Soul of a Heavenly Immortal in the same realm, was not deflected, nor was it destroyed.
Instead, it was eaten.
It was like throwing a pebble into an endless abyss; not even a ripple was stirred.
Her connection to that wisp of Divine Soul power was bitten off and devoured at its source by invisible, intangible fangs on the Soul level with a "crack."
The agonizing pain of having a corner of her Divine Soul torn away alive caused Lin Wan's mind to go blank instantly.
"Gurgle—"
An extremely muffled stomach growl echoed from Wang Baobao's belly.
A hideous crack instantly appeared on Lin Wan's smiling face.
Run!
Every cell in her body, her survival instinct as a Heavenly Immortal Seventh Heaven, and all her experience as a top predator were all screaming the same heart-wrenching roar at her—
Run!!
But, it was too late.
The background noise of the entire world vanished.
The next second.
"Boom-crack—!"
The ceiling of the Yingxian Restaurant did not shatter.
Along with the roof tiles and beams, it was directly erased from reality the moment that purple-gold lightning appeared, turning into the most primitive void.
There were no thunderclouds.
There was no heavenly might.
There wasn't the slightest fluctuation of Law.
That purple-gold divine lightning, as thick as a bucket, was like the will of the Universe itself passing judgment on a speck of dust, directly tearing through space and descending out of thin air.
Overbearing, violent, and utterly disregarding any logic of the Immortal Realm.
The Divine Souls of all the diners in the lobby were shaken by this destructive aura beyond comprehension, nearly dissipating on the spot.
The target of that divine lightning was precise to an unbelievable degree.
Like a whip of order with eyes, it perfectly bypassed Wang Baobao, who was at the center of the storm just inches away, without even disturbing a single hair of her upright pigtails.
It was straight and ruthless, leaving no room for suspense.
It struck Lin Wan—who was still maintaining her fingertip-touching posture, with a trace of a victorious smile still lingering on her face—with brutal force!
"Boom—!!!"
A massive roar that had no medium of transmission yet exploded directly in the depths of everyone's Soul swallowed everything!
The entire Yingxian Restaurant twisted violently under this power, and the very structure of space let out a pained wail.
Lin Wan's proud Heavenly Immortal body was less than a thin sheet of paper before that purple-gold divine lightning.
She couldn't even let out a muffled groan.
She was violently sent flying by an irresistible, massive force!
Bang!
The first wall, built from Azure Gang Stone, exploded into powder.
Bang!
The second wall, reinforced with a defensive Formation, was annihilated along with the Formation patterns.
Bang!
The third wall, which served as the restaurant's core load-bearing structure, was blasted through with a roar!
Shattered stones flew backward, and dust billowed into the sky.
"Bang—!!!"
Like a high-speed cannonball, she was deeply embedded into the thickest Coiling Dragon stone pillar at the end of the lobby!
The stone pillar groaned under the strain, and countless cracks spread like a spiderweb, but it ultimately did not collapse on the spot.
However, a charred human-shaped pit now marked its surface.
In that pit, a woman who was once peerless in her elegance was now pinned there like a piece of art destroyed by violence.
Her plain white dress had turned to charcoal, and traces of purple-gold electrical arcs still danced wildly on her body, making faint "crackling" sounds.
The air was thick with the stench of charred Divine Soul and flesh.
Her hair was disheveled, and half of her gentle face had been burned into a bloody mess by the lightning's power, revealing white bone.
That composure and elegance, that perfect mask that had toyed with countless people in the palm of her hand, was torn to shreds before this irrational violence.
All that remained was pure, unbelievable shock.
Her eyes were wide as she stared fixedly at the little girl with the upright pigtails.
Wang Baobao stood where she was, completely unharmed.
She simply blinked her eyes, which had regained their clarity, in a daze, seemingly not understanding at all what had just happened.
Then, she looked down and patted her flat little belly.
She looked up again at Lin Wan, who was embedded in the stone pillar with only half a breath left.
She tilted her little head cutely.
In a milky voice, with a hint of innocent confusion.
"Eh?"
"Big Sister, why did you run over there?"
"..."
"Pfft—!"
A mouthful of blood mixed with shattered internal organs and charred Divine Soul Origin sprayed from the mouth of Lin Wan, who was embedded in the pillar.
She was a Heavenly Immortal Seventh Heaven.
She was the inner sect Fairy of Hundred Flowers of the Xuantian Immortal Sect, an existence who toyed with the hearts of men.
Yet, she had been struck by a bolt of lightning from the heavens and turned into a specimen on the wall on the spot!
This was something that transcended the Laws of the Immortal Dao!
It was a Bloodline taboo!
It was an ancient absolute defense engraved in the deepest part of that little girl's Soul, ten thousand times more overbearing than any protective immortal weapon!
Just what... did I touch?
Just what kind of monster... is hidden inside this little girl's body?!
