205 Becoming the Lead (1/2)
Wang Baole was aware of the origins of the devouring seed. It was formed as he trained in the cultivation technique given by Little Missy in the black mask. It could be said that he had created it from scratch…
As for the black lightning, even though it was the first time that Wang Baole had seen it, he found it familiar. He immediately thought of the times Little Missy of the black mask had electrocuted him using lightning when he was cultivating for the so-called Golden Body. The lightning back then was similar to the black lightning.
Darn it… Thinking about all that, Wang Baole could not help but curse. No matter how he analyzed the situation, everything seemed to be related to Little Missy from the black mask. That made him helpless and immensely irritated.
On the other hand, after Wang Baole analyzed and recalled all the experiences in his life thus far, he finally came to realize the origins of the purple sea.
Isn't that the purple glow that was trying to swallow me when I was in Spirit Breath Village?
As he felt the presence of the existences in his body, Wang Baole didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He was angry, but he had nowhere to release his anger. All he could do was focus his attention on the fruit in front of him.
As he began to relax, the suction force increased exponentially as the effects of the numerous forces in his body built upon each other. The fruit which Zhao Yameng was in was withering at a fast speed, and the entire process only took a short while before all the Spirit Qi and signs of life within the fruit were depleted.
Wang Baole's body trembled. He could clearly feel that his level of cultivation had been raised significantly within that short period of time, such that he wasn't far from achieving a breakthrough in the fourth level of the True Breath realm. Furthermore, the devouring seed, the black lightning, and the purple sea all released a portion of the Spirit Qi that they had absorbed back into Wang Baole's body.
Experiencing all that, Wang Baole felt less angered, and he spoke with a lot of emotion, ”At least all of you have some conscience…”
Even though he still felt slightly troubled and irritated, Wang Baole didn't have much time to think about the origins of the three existences at that moment. He quickly pried open the fruit which Zhao Yameng was in; as cracking sounds were produced and the fruit was being pried open, Wang Baole grabbed hold of Zhao Yameng's arm, pulling her wet body out of the fruit.
The sheer long dress stuck snugly on Zhao Yameng's body, becoming similar bodycon dress which presented Zhao Yameng's curvy figure beautifully in front of Wang Baole. He took a quick glance and was somewhat surprised.
It's usually not so obvious, but Zhao Yameng's figure is not bad…
At the same time, as she was not assimilated by the giant tree's consciousness, Zhao Yameng trembled after being rescued by Wang Baole and was about to wake up. Wang Baole immediately grew alert, as he thought about how he would have saved an enemy if the tree had successfully assimilated Zhao Yameng. Therefore, he raised his right hand to retrieve a flying sword. As Zhao Yameng awakened, he slashed her arm once.
The pain accelerated the process of Zhao Yameng's awakening, and her eyes opened wide instantly. The moment she woke and saw Wang Baole, she took a deep breath—her face pale, but her emotions stable. After taking a quick look at the surroundings, she lowered her head to look at the wound on her arm before looking at Wang Baole.
”That's confirmation that I hadn't been assimilated.” As she spoke, Zhao Yameng took out her voice transmission jade slip in an attempt to contact the Dao College.
Wang Baole, who noticed that Zhao Yameng's injury didn't heal, heaved a sigh of relief. He became slightly awkward hearing what Zhao Yameng said.
”I'm going to save Zhuo Yifan!” Wang Baole spoke quickly, turning around to search for Zhuo Yifan. Zhao Yameng also realized that sending the voice transmission was ineffective, and gathered all her effort to stand up and join in the search. Very quickly, the duo found the fruit that Zhuo Yifan was encapsulated in.
Seeing through the translucent fruit wall, they could see that Zhuo Yifan had a frightened expression, with green veins bulging up all over his face as if numerous tiny tree branches were wriggling within.
The scene caused the duo to be shocked. Wang Baole grew anxious, and as Zhao Yameng stood frozen in shock, Wang Baole stepped forward to hug the fruit enveloping Zhuo Yifan tightly and roared loudly.
Instantly, an unbelievably strong suction force erupted from Wang Baole's body. Very quickly, the fruit encapsulating Zhuo Yifan withered. Seeing what had happened, Zhao Yameng stared wide with her beautiful eyes, feeling incredulous as she looked towards Wang Baole.
If they were in another situation, Wang Baole would definitely boast arrogantly. However, he wasn't in the mood to do so then. As the fruit encapsulating Zhuo Yifan withered, he immediately pried the fruit wall open, before pulling Zhuo Yifan out of it forcefully.
