A World Worth Protecting Chapter 852 - Herding All Life

Chapter 852: Herding All Life

To Wang Baole, this chance, from how much it could increase his cultivation alone, could be said to be unprecedented. Even though he had many opportunities previously, they mostly increased his potential and kept gathering. At this moment, all of his gathered opportunities exploded forth, and his cultivation started shooting up incredibly!
He could clearly feel that after he swallowed the old ghost, he seemed to have a vast ocean in his soul. And what he needed to do most was unleash that ocean and turn it into his cultivation!
At the same time, he could faintly feel that the ocean wasn’t completely sealed within his soul like he previously thought. It seemed to be slowly dissipating away!
Such dissipation made Wang Baole’s gaze flash. As a Dark Child, he could tell that such dissipation was definitely not a Dark Sect technique. That was because the Dark Sect herded souls and cared most about getting the purest soul back into the cycle of reincarnation. As for their cultivation and soul power, they would be returned back to the heavens and earth, causing it to become a cycle.
But the ocean within his soul now didn’t dissipate back into the heavens and earth. Instead, it seemed to flow to a designated place. Wang Baole couldn’t explain such a feeling clearly, but as a Dark Child, his gut told him that such a judgment shouldn’t be wrong.
What the heck? Such a feeling shocked Wang Baole a bit. He couldn’t help but think of the Never-Ending Clan, and another guess appeared in his mind.
Could it be… that the so-called method the Never-Ending Clan uses to break past life and death is only an illusion? The true core of their technique is to absorb the power of the entire Dao Domain slowly into their bodies? The Dark Sect herds souls of the dead, while the Never-Ending Clan herds all life?
He didn’t know whether he was correct or not, but he was very clear that… he absolutely couldn’t let the opportunity he had put in so much effort to obtain dissipate.
So, without hesitation, Wang Baole made his own soul the place where the ocean flowed into. He seemed to open the floodgates, causing the ocean in his soul to explode forth.
As it exploded forth, his body shook violently. He instantly felt the cultivation of his essence body explode forth from the previous False Immortal realm state. His soul shook, and his essence body swayed. It was like a shoot sprouting from the ground, and it kept pounding forth. As if it could crush mountains and empty the sea, he achieved a breakthrough immediately.
From the False Immortal state of a perfected stage Soul Conduit, his cultivation increased to… the early-stage Spirit Immortal realm!
A so-called Spirit Immortal would turn their soul into a Divine Soul and have no impurities in their body. With the circulation of their cultivation within their body, a natural aroma would spread towards the surroundings. While it would cause them to change completely both internally and externally, it would also cause them to have a power similar to an energy field due to the transformation of their soul. It would spread in a radius of a thousand feet and seemingly turn that area into their own territory.
Within that territory, unless those who had lower cultivations used special methods or Dharmic treasures, they would be suppressed immediately.
And this opportunity hadn’t ended. When Wang Baole swallowed the old ghost, it didn’t only include the old ghost. He also swallowed the Qi of millions of dead souls, as well as the twelve spiritual dragons that the twelve emperors turned into.
The ocean in his soul formed from all of that was extremely magnificent.
So, after he paused for a short while, he opened the floodgates again and allowed the ocean in his soul to gush forward once more.
His cultivation started shooting up incredibly again the moment he broke through the Soul Conduit realm and stepped into the Spirit Immortal realm. Rumbles reverberated on his body. As the firmament of the imperial cemetery rumbled, it formed a giant vortex. While it affected the whole world, Wang Baole’s cultivation rose again!
From the early-stage Spirit Immortal realm, he reached the peak of the early-stage Spirit Immortal realm immediately and even hit the perfected early-stage Spirit Immortal realm. All of that seemed to be achieved effortlessly. It was as though no obstacles could obstruct the seawater that burst forth intensely, that they were so weak that they couldn’t even take a hit. Any obstacles were smashed apart directly!
This caused his cultivation to skip the refinement and stabilization process that ordinary cultivators needed to do for dozens of years.
This feeling… This is the feeling I want! Wang Baole was extremely excited. After suppressing the ocean in his soul temporarily, he gritted his teeth and let it explode forth once more!
Instantly, the rise of his cultivation became even more violent. It seemed to gather all its power to charge forth violently as he broke through the early-stage Spirit Immortal realm and stepped into… the mid-stage Spirit Immortal realm!
The moment he became a mid-stage Spirit Immortal, Wang Baole’s body shook violently, and a roar spread from his mouth. Rumbles and cracks sounded from his body, seemingly reverberating continuously from inside his body towards the outside. As the rumbles and cracks reverberated, the disturbances dispersed from his body exceeded the previous ones by more than ten times.
Such cracks left Wang Baole with no choice but to temporarily suppress the ocean within his soul, like closing the floodgates. At the same time, the vortex in the sky exploded forth more intensely, and the earth was trembling. A horrifying aura spread from his body!
I should… be able to continue! Wang Baole didn’t open his eyes. He was very clear that he was in an extremely important period. How high his cultivation could reach depended on this opportunity. Of course… it depended on how much he could take!
That was because, while his cultivation was increasing, his essence body was also reaching its limit. The previous cracks and rumbles brought him extreme pain, as though his soul was about to collapse, every time they sounded.
But Wang Baole didn’t care about this kind of pain!
He was already someone who was harsh on himself. At that moment, he opened the floodgates again without hesitation, causing the ocean in his soul to burst forth violently once again. It gushed straight into his body, and his cultivation shot up once again.
Rumbles echoed in his soul. As the cracks in his body became more intense, his cultivation also shot up crazily. It kept shooting up from the mid-stage Spirit Immortal realm. When it neared the peak of the mid-stage Spirit Immortal realm, his body had reached its limit.
If someone stood in front of him right then, they would definitely see that his essence body had countless rifts on it. It was like a broken porcelain vase that was forcefully glued back together, seeming like it would collapse with a gentle touch.
That was because Wang Baole’s cultivation increased too quickly this time, which made it such that his essence body had no time to digest and get used to its new cultivation. It was as though it was being force-fed. Although the increase in his cultivation was horrifying, there was also danger involved!
This was also because Wang Baole was becoming somewhat greedy and very harsh on himself. If he only broke through to the early-stage Spirit Immortal realm, his essence body wouldn’t be in such a state. It was just that… if he really absorbed the cultivation slowly, it would definitely take a long time. The most important thing was, Wang Baole was worried that as time passed, the opportunity he didn’t absorb would dissipate completely and no longer belong to him.
That was unless he could absorb it completely and turn it into his cultivation. So, Wang Baole closed his eyes, judged the situation, and gritted his teeth as he chanted the Dao Scripture silently in his heart!
At the same time, he activated the Eternal Star Fire and the Planet realm palm within it, causing it to disperse its power and descend on his body. He turned it into external pressure to forcefully stop his body from collapsing!
I don’t believe it! Wang Baole growled, and his cultivation exploded forth again. As his body trembled, it seemed to be about to explode. But immediately, the Eternal Star Fire spread out and engulfed him. The Planet realm palm also flew out and floated above him to suppress his body.
This way, they caused Wang Baole’s body, which was about to collapse, to restabilize. Following that… his cultivation exploded forth rapidly under the force-feeding and reached the peak of the mid-stage Spirit Immortal realm, even reaching the perfected mid-stage Spirit Immortal realm!
And at that moment, only 20% of the sea of opportunity in Wang Baole’s soul was left. After thinking for a short while, frenzy appeared in Wang Baole’s eyes as he completely unleashed the remaining 20% of the sea of opportunity.
Break through! As Wang Baole roared in his heart, the power of the Dao Scripture descended. While it engulfed the entire world, it also descended upon his body, causing it to stabilize again while it trembled. Following that… as the 20% of the sea of opportunity gushed into his body, his cultivation shot up again!
The rumbles were like heavenly thunder as they spread from Wang Baole’s body. As they echoed around the whole world, his cultivation finally rose to its limit. Under the crazy charging of his perfected mid-stage Spirit Immortal cultivation, his cultivation broke through again!
He stepped into… the late-stage Spirit Immortal realm!
And the consequence was the trembling of his body. The intense pain, as though his body and soul were splitting apart, made Wang Baole scream. His cultivation circulated violently, and the demonic eye appeared behind him. The Emperor Armor also appeared and engulfed him as he kept reinforcing his body. They combined with the Eternal Star Fire, Planet realm palm, and Dao Scripture to suppress his body with all their might, buying time for him to stabilize and repair it.
I must persevere. D*mn it, this is the best, unprecedented opportunity that I, Wang Baole, have ever gotten! No one can take it away from me!
At the same time, deep under the ground of the Divine Eye main star, within the coffin where Wang Baole’s true body resided, the true body, which had its eyes closed, also started rumbling at that moment. Waves of Spirit Immortal disturbances spread forth. As they rose to the late-stage Spirit Immortal realm, the mysterious mask also glowed. Faintly, the sound of Little Missy inhaling could be heard.
“This Wang Baole… is too greedy. He’s also too harsh on himself. He’s risking his life just to increase his cultivation!”
“Fine, I’ll help him. I bet this Wang Baole won’t succeed. His avatar definitely can’t withstand it and will collapse, causing him to fail. No one can do that, and he’s no exception. There’s no way he’ll succeed!” Little Missy coughed as she said words similar to what she had said many times before.
