Chapter 107: You Despise Me?

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
When Wang Baole retracted his Golden Body and raised his right hand, the nine-inch Spirit Root immediately stopped in its tracks, its cold, icy aura nowhere to be seen. It no longer cared about Wang Baole and turned around, floating low in the sky, as it made its way toward the mountain range a distance away.
Wang Baole suddenly grew anxious, looking at the Spirit Root going away.
Hmm… if it’s leaving, where am I supposed to find it later on?
As he thought hard about how to trap it, he saw the nine-inch Spirit Root’s figure directly passing through the hill before it and emerging from the other end into the firmament.
The scene flabbergasted Wang Baole. Laughing bitterly, he gave up the thought of trapping the Spirit Root. He sat down with his legs crossed and took out a Rainbow Spirit Stone to begin inscribing on it.
As for breaking through the Ancient Martial realm, Wang Baole was no longer concerned. He felt that he should attempt to see if he could defeat the nine-inch Spirit Root and absorb it.
Come to think of it, the nine-inch Spirit Root is so strong. How did people try to absorb it previously and realize that it could not be transformed into a Spirit Root?
After thinking about it, Wang Baole came up with some guesses. He thought about how one could stay for a moment after attaining the True Breath realm and suppress the nine-inch Spirit Root as a True Breath cultivator before absorbing it. Even if one True Breath cultivator was unable to fight it, so long as appropriate planning was made and a few True Breath cultivators gathered, it would not be impossible to fight the nine-inch Spirit Root.
If that’s the case, the four major Dao Colleges should have battled with this nine-inch Spirit Root previously and gained an understanding of its combat techniques. However, why was it that I’ve never heard anything about it?
That thought flashed across his mind, and he took a deep breath. He did not think much about other matters and instead focused all his effort on the structure of his inscriptions.
I can use the devouring seed for absorption, but to release it, I will have to rely on the inscriptions.
Wang Baole’s eyes shimmered as he gained greater understanding and began inscribing.
Three days soon passed. Within the Spirit Breath Village, those who had attained the seven-inch Spirit Root grew in numbers, and the area covered in the search for eight-inch Spirit Roots spread even more.
Wang Baole stood within the valley with his hair in a mess. He was looking at the glove on his right hand with excitement.
This is it! This glove is enhanced with many more Rainbow Spirit Stones as Spirit Kernels, and its inscriptions were also adjusted!
Wang Baole suppressed his excitement, and the devouring seed within his body started to be released. Instantly, a suction force rushed at a high-speed in all directions into the glove on his right hand. Before it could be integrated into his palm, Wang Baole roared, raising his right hand and gripping it into a fist, hurling it into the space before him!
As the punch landed, the glove immediately gave off a black glow. A breathtaking impact instantly erupted from within it, striking the invisible cloud of gathered Spirit Qi, transforming it into a whirlwind similar to what the nine-inch Spirit Root had managed to form!
As the noise reverberated, the space before Wang Baole was warped, and cracks appeared on the ground. The entire landscape was immensely frightening.
“Success!” Wang Baole laughed heartily toward the sky in his exhilaration.
The most major improvement to the glove was to boost the power of the hurricane that formed within it and transform it into an impactful force that would collide with the Spirit Qi that had been gathered.
The stronger Wang Baole’s force and the faster his speed, the more the glove could boost it to release a greater impact. This way, the force produced after colliding with the Spirit Qi would increase drastically!
However, there were also disadvantages. The glove had to withstand an immense force that was supposed to be absorbed by Wang Baole’s fist and was therefore particularly susceptible to falling apart. Regardless, Wang Baole had already considered it and used inscriptions to withstand the pressure and spread it outward. In the process, it also helped to boost the power of the glove to a certain extent.
Even though there were limitations, at the current stage, the glove could be considered very powerful!
That’s why the realization is the most crucial part of everything!
Wang Baole laughed loud and proud.
I have to look for the nine-inch Spirit Root and battle it again!
Although he wanted to set off on his search, after thinking about it, he sat down with his legs crossed, unleashing his Golden Body and spreading the Blood Qi outward.
Let’s try to see if this can lure it in first. If it doesn’t succeed, then I’ll search for it.Wang Baole prayed, waiting.
The wait extended into an hour, and seeing how the Spirit Root did not appear, Wang Baole sighed. He was just about to give up when his pupils suddenly constricted as he noticed that a faint figure had appeared in the sky, charging toward him.
The surrounding Spirit Qi was also being influenced, transforming into an invisible storm that as it neared him, created a strong pressure that descended upon him.
I managed to lure it here! Wang Baole was surprised. The moment the nine-inch Spirit Root arrived, the devouring seed within him erupted. Immediately, the surrounding Spirit Qi was drawn along. As the Spirit Qi neared Wang Baole’s gloved right hand, a black glow was released from it, and Wang Baole punched.
Boom!
In the blink of an eye, under the suction force and impact, the energy of the Spirit Qi tide that the nine-inch Spirit Root had showcased previously was replicated by Wang Baole!
The noise was deafening. The approaching Spirit Root shook vigorously and was forced hundreds of feet back. As it landed on the ground without moving, Wang Baole laughed loudly and leaped into the air. He no longer waited passively but instead attacked first, charging at the nine-inch Spirit Root.
As he neared, the nine-inch Spirit Root suddenly raised its right leg and stepped hard on the ground. The ground shook, but its body did not shoot forward using the resulting force. Instead, it remained where it was, and a strong wave erupted through the vibration that was previously created, with the Spirit Root as the epicenter.
The wave spread and influenced the surrounding Spirit Qi. It was not clear how it happened, but riding on the force of the Spirit Qi, the vibration spread out in midair. Similar to theory of conductivity, it spread in all directions, causing all the rocks to break apart and the trees to splinter.
Wang Baole’s body vibrated vigorously, and all his internal organs were in great pain. Though he faced some of the impact, he had prepared for it previously. He roared loudly, his gloved right hand clenched into a fist and agitated the glove Dharmic artifact immediately, activating the inscriptions to that he had carved previously. In the explosion, coupled with the devouring seed within his body, a strong punch landed on the ground.
The moment the punch landed, the ground shook. It was not loud, but continuous rumbling spread in the surrounding sky, as if waves of Spirit Qi had collided with each other.
Haha, I’ve learned another trick. This should be how people at the Ancient Martial Arts fight!
I may not have your skills, but I have Dharmic artifacts!
Wang Baole raised his head, his eyes filled with intense fighting will, which was stronger than ever. He immediately rushed out, approaching the nine-inch Spirit Root, and battled it head on!
Loud booming sounds spread out continuously. Wang Baole and the nine-inch Spirit Root exchanged hundreds of punches, each of them influencing the surrounding Spirit Qi. Not only were they physically withstanding it, they were attacking each other by manipulating the Spirit Qi.
Wang Baole grew more confident as he fought, and his manipulation of the Spirit Qi became more honed the more he practiced it.
There was no one around. If others had witnessed the scene, they would definitely have been shocked frozen. It was unbelievable that this was a battle based on Ancient Martial Arts, for those who were there would think that it was a battle between True Breath experts!
As the battle drew on, the nine-inch Spirit Root slowly retreated, and its figure became murky. Even though Wang Baole was beginning to feel fatigued, he was in extremely high spirits. Not only did he achieve a breakthrough in his combat techniques, which boosted his combat capabilities, he was also encouraged by his desire for the nine-inch Spirit Root.
Regardless of whether he could absorb it or not, he would feel indignant if he did not even try. That was especially so as Wang Baole felt that since his Golden Body had formed such a strong attractive force toward the nine-inch Spirit Root, it could mean that he could absorb it!
In his anticipation and excitement, Wang Baole roared loudly and charged once again. Slowly, fissures appeared on the nine-inch Spirit Root’s body, which started to spread and grow deeper. In the end, as the Blood Qi from Wang Baole’s body began to spread, the golden glow erupted from his body. With a punch, the nine-inch Spirit Root vibrated strongly and disintegrated.
It was no longer a green fog but a silver one!
The silver fog was obviously different from the rest. Not only was it thicker, it carried a sense of spirituality. Once it appeared, Wang Baole absorbed it. It rushed into his body immediately, gathering at the position on his dantian, where the eight-inch Spirit Root used to be.
Wang Baole was nervous. The cloud of silver fog gathered in the place of the eight-inch Spirit Root but was not exchanging with it. It was as if it despised him. After circling around several times, it no longer bothered about him and spread out from his body.
This very scene threw Wang Baole off, and he stared hard.
“Damn it! I wasn’t bothered by the fact that you’re second-hand, and you still despise me?”
