16 Superior-Grade Spirit Stones (2/2)

A Spirit Stone was considered of superior grade once 85% was reached, and if one reached 95% and above, it was considered a supreme-grade Spirit Stone. Typically, a single Spirit Stone of such quality was extremely valuable, something only masters could refine.

And this bottleneck… was something that required students who cultivated in the Qi Fostering Art to have opportunities and proficient skill before it could be broken through. However, the completely overpowered Great Void Qi Devouring Art revealed the bottleneck the moment it encountered it.

When the purity of the Spirit Stone that Wang Baole was refining reached 84% and was about to approach 85%, his body suddenly quivered. An unprecedented suction force abruptly manifested from the slowly spinning devouring seed!

The degree of this sudden change far exceeded Wang Baole's preparation and imaginations. Nearly all the Spirit Qi in his cave abode was instantly sucked dry!

The vacuum seemed to form a natural black hole as though a hole had appeared in the sea of Spirit Qi. Immediately, the massive amount of Spirit Qi seemed to quiver as it surged over. Thankfully, the Dharmic Armament faculty's mountain peak had a Spirit Qi gathering array formation that instantly stabilized the imbalance.

Wang Baole's suction speed was fast, and the amounts drawn were massive, but compared to the Spirit Qi in the entire Dharmic Armament Peak, it was still nothing. It did not attract the attention of others.

People would, at most, notice a pause in the flow of the surrounding Spirit Qi.

However, to Wang Baole, the sudden increase in the suction force and the Spirit Qi that surged into his body like a bursting river left his mind abuzz. He failed to direct the overwhelming amount of Spirit Qi in his body to his palm in a timely fashion, and it rapidly accumulated to form spirit fat.

As the spirit fat increased at a discernible pace, the Spirit Stone in his palm finally crossed a purity level of 84% under this sudden surge and reached… 85%!

It was no longer a medial-grade Spirit Stone but a superior-grade Spirit Stone!

Streams of light emanated from the resplendent and crystalline Spirit Stone. Although it was inferior to the one that Teacher Zou had refined in class, the difference was not particularly great. It was similarly a superior-grade Spirit Stone and extremely costly!

But Wang Baole was unable to feel happy. He stared at his indescribable body in a daze as the Spirit Stone in his hand dropped onto his belly with a plop before falling to the ground. When he looked down, all he could see was his stomach and not the Spirit Stone.

Moments later, a tragic cry resounded from the cave abode. Wang Baole was close to tears as he anxiously raised his arms and looked at his stomach before bursting into sorrowful cries.

”No, my formerly perfect figure!”

”Why did this happen?”

In Wang Baole's anguish, he tried to stand up but realized he was unable to do so. This nearly drove him crazy as he felt a cold wind blow past him. It felt like countless Fatso Forefathers were walking over from every direction, smiling at him as they waved their hands like they hoped to reunite with him.

All I want is to be Head Prefect. Why am I encountering so many difficulties?

Amid Wang Baole's grief, he struggled to get up and squeezed his body through the cave abode's door.

He was relieved when he realized that he could still leave the cave abode. He had really been afraid that he would be too fat to fit through the door. If that happened… he would truly have been doomed.

Thankfully, it was late at night, and no one noticed the happenings at his cave abode. If not, they would definitely have been stunned, thinking that a particular beast had descended. While reeling in anguish, Wang Baole gritted his teeth and began fervently running around the island again.

But this time, it appeared to be ineffective. Even though he had taken the chance to head to the weight-lifting grounds while it was empty, raising the weights crazily in the process and even adding more weights, the effects were negligible. It failed to achieve the outcome he needed.

Heavens, what should I do? Wang Baole was extremely anxious as sweat rolled down his forehead. Finally, he sought help from the Spirit Internet and searched for weight loss tips.

The seemingly omniscient Spirit Internet was filled with random information, but it did not deter a fatty who was only thinking about losing weight. Fatties were always able to sharply pick out a potential weight-loss technique from what appeared like ordinary news to others.

For example… the Combat faculty's Lava Chamber.

”The Combat faculty's Lava Chamber is pretty much Hell; it's such a torture. I sweated like it was raining in there.”

”That place is a place that torments people. I only spent five minutes in that place and lost half a kilogram. I kind of pity myself.”

When he saw all sorts of criticisms about the Lava Chamber on the Spirit Internet, Wang Baole's breathing hastened as his eyes lit up suddenly.

Lava Chamber… Lava Chamber! Wang Baole felt like a drowning person who had grabbed a life-saving straw. He immediately raised his head and looked at Combat Peak before flying over.

Under the moonlight, one could see a massive beast-like figure charge away with a whistling sound.

I want to lose weight!
