96 Sorrow at the Height of Happiness (2/2)

Within the group of students, there were also some from Ethereal Dao College. When they saw Wang Baole dashing past and the Spirit Root that had morphed into his appearance, they were all filled with envy and rich emotions.

”The Triple Head Prefect of our Ethereal Dao College's Dharmic Armament is indeed extraordinary! Even his lure of the Spirit Root is unusual!”

Wang Baole noticed the facial expressions and discussions of everyone he met on the way. That made him even more smug as he thought about how capable he was. The fact that the seven-inch Spirit Root was pursuing him meant that he had a greater advantage compared to the others.

If only I could meet a six-inch Spirit Root, that would be great!

Just as Wang Baole felt light with pleasure, he suddenly noticed that an illusionary figure had flashed by in the valley right ahead. That made his eyes brighten up instantly, and he headed there swiftly, wanting to try his luck. However, the moment he reached the valley, he saw that there were three Spirit Root illusionary figures floating away.

The figures of the three Spirit Roots seemed to have sensed him. They had originally been moving further away, but they stopped abruptly, turning around at the same time, and vibrated once strongly the moment they looked toward Wang Baole. Their bodies expanded and contorted, and as Wang Baole was filled with disbelief, the three Spirit Roots quickly morphed into figures that looked exactly like him!

”Three five-inch-long ones!” Wang Baole was dazed, looking at the five-inch Spirit Roots that had adopted his looks rushing toward him while howling. He was incredulous at the sight unfolding before his eyes.

”So, every one of them likes me and is fated with me, huh?” Wang Baole took a deep breath. Even though he was surprised, he still felt that something was amiss. However, he did not have time to think much, for the seven-inch Spirit Root was fast catching up. Therefore, he jolted and began running swiftly, with a seven-inch and three five-inch Spirit Roots that had transformed into four separate figures with his exact appearance howling and pursuing him.

Could it be that I am too handsome? Wang Baole was confused. Even though he felt that something was not right, he was more delighted and happy than anything. However, his delight did not last long before Wang Baole began to feel anxious.

If it were just the four Spirit Roots, that would have been fine. The thing that made Wang Baole feel was absurd was that as he ran, he met even more Spirit Roots, and all of the Spirit Roots that came across Wang Baole would instantly morph into him and begin their pursuit.

In the end, even Wang Baole's scalp began to feel numb. There were now over thirty fatties chasing after him, most of them more than three-inches-long. Their eyes were all reddened, and they howled continuously as they pursued Wang Baole ferociously.

What on earth is happening? Wang Baole was frightened. He no longer felt joy and was instead incredulous at the situation. That was especially so as all the Spirit Roots pursuing him had immense strength, capable of eliciting pain through a single attack. With the thirty of them combined, their force strengthened, causing a thunder-like boom to be produced as they ran on the ground.

As the sound spread, it attracted the attention of even more Spirit Roots, which transformed into Wang Baole the moment they saw him. The numbers grew exponentially, reaching the hundreds!

”Heavens!” Wang Baole shouted in surprise. There was no way of destroying the Spirit Roots. He had tried to kill them, but they were resistant to death. Every time that they dispersed, they would reassemble shortly.

As a result, Wang Baole broke out in cold sweat. He felt immensely helpless and confused, realizing that once he stopped running, he would be rounded up and attacked by hundreds of himself.

There must be something wrong, damn it! There are hundreds of Spirit Roots here, but why isn't there one less than three inches? I only need a one-inch Spirit Root! Wang Baole was nervous and moved even faster, leading the huge group of Fatties, which was growing in number, as he ran without stopping in the Spirit Breath Village.

The commotion was huge, catching the attention of greater numbers of people. The students who witnessed the scene all stared unblinkingly, gasping in shock as they felt that the entire scene was too surprising!

”This… what kind of quality is this?”

”Could it be that this fatty's talent is so extraordinary that so many Spirit Roots are fated with him?”

The Spirit Roots following behind Wang Baole seemed to have assembled into a military contingent. Through their never-ending pursuit, the entire place and the forests seemed to be almost flattened.

Without a choice, Wang Baole sighed continuously. As time flew past, the number of Spirit Roots after him grew in number, reaching several hundred. There were numerous Spirit Roots within the group that had originally become fated with others, transforming into their looks, and engaging in battle with other students. However, when they saw Wang Baole, they immediately changed their target, as if staging a rebellion as they immediately became Wang Baole's figure and joining the contingent pursing Wang Baole.

Time flew, and there were already many from the four major Dao Colleges that had gone through the necessary torture. The impressive capabilities of Wang Baole at leading the Spirit Roots were already well known, and Wang Baole did not have time to care about issues like that. He was more anxious than anyone else as he searched frantically for the one-inch Spirit Root.

At that moment, in front of the charging Wang Baole was a marsh. Li Yi, who possessed a naturally fire-type Spirit Body from White Deer Dao College managed to overcome the one-inch True Breath that had transformed into her looks. Her eyes were demure as she looked at the figure that looked exactly like her.

She had taken a long time to discover the one-inch True Breath. After successfully suppressing it, Li Yi could not resist and kissed the beautiful face she was looking at, mesmerized by its beauty.

However, just as her cherry lips descended, the earth trembled as the fat Wang Baole who was leading a group of Fatties dashed right by!
