Wang Baole was aware of the origins of the devouring seed. It was ford 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 ti that Wang Baole had seen it, he found it familiar. He imdiately thought of the tis 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 seed to be related to Little Missy from the black mask. That made him helpless and imnsely irritated.
On the other hand, after Wang Baole analyzed and recalled all the experiences in his life thus far, he finally ca to realize the origins of the purple sea.
Isn’t that the purple glow that was trying to swallow 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 nurous forces in his body built upon each other. The fruit which Zhao Yang 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 ti, 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 so conscience...”
Even though he still felt slightly troubled and irritated, Wang Baole didn’t have much ti to think about the origins of the three existences at that mont. He quickly pried open the fruit which Zhao Yang was in; as cracking sounds were produced and the fruit was being pried open, Wang Baole grabbed hold of Zhao Yang’s arm, pulling her wet body out of the fruit.
The sheer long dress stuck snugly on Zhao Yang’s body, becoming similar bodycon dress which presented Zhao Yang’s curvy figure beautifully in front of Wang Baole. He took a quick glance and was sowhat surprised.
It’s usually not so obvious, but Zhao Yang’s figure is not bad...
At the sa ti, as she was not assimilated by the giant tree’s consciousness, Zhao Yang trembled after being rescued by Wang Baole and was about to wake up. Wang Baole imdiately grew alert, as he thought about how he would have saved an enemy if the tree had successfully assimilated Zhao Yang. Therefore, he raised his right hand to retrieve a flying sword. As Zhao Yang awakened, he slashed her arm once.
The pain accelerated the process of Zhao Yang’s awakening, and her eyes opened wide instantly. The mont 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 Yang took out her voice transmission jade slip in an attempt to contact the Dao College.
Wang Baole, who noticed that Zhao Yang’s injury didn’t heal, heaved a sigh of relief. He beca slightly awkward hearing what Zhao Yang said.
“I’m going to save Zhuo Yifan!” Wang Baole spoke quickly, turning around to search for Zhuo Yifan. Zhao Yang 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 nurous tiny tree branches were wriggling within.
The scene caused the duo to be shocked. Wang Baole grew anxious, and as Zhao Yang 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 Yang 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 imdiately pried the fruit wall open, before pulling Zhuo Yifan out of it forcefully.
As Zhuo Yifan fell to the ground, Zhao Yang had already taken out her flying sword to slash Zhuo Yifan in the thigh, even before Wang Baole made his attempt.
Fresh blood flowed out of the wound, which didn’t heal as swiftly as that of the cultivators who had been assimilated. The duo heaved a sigh of relief, and Zhuo Yifan also awakened from the pain. He opened his eyes, first in a blur before quickly gaining awareness. He saw Wang Baole and Zhao Yang, as well as his surroundings, and gasped.
“Both of you... This place is...”
“We should be within the giant tree that captured us alive. The force of the seal still remains, and voice transmissions still cannot be sent. If not for Wang Baole, the three of us would definitely have died and been assimilated by the giant tree to beco puppets!” Zhao Yang took in a deep breath and cald herself down as she spoke.
“Now is not the ti to talk about all this. We have to find the exit quickly!” Wang Baole took quick glances in all directions, trying to find an escape route. When he spoke, Zhuo Yifan, who had planned to question further, instinctively chose to obey. Zhao Yang followed suit as well.
The two of them hadn’t realized it, but after being saved by Wang Baole and being placed into the weird and dangerous environnt, an unusual sense of determination seed to have erged from Wang Baole.
It was that determination and steadfastness that caused both of them to choose to agree with Wang Baole. Even though they were weak and tired, they gritted their teeth and cooperated. The trio thus began their search in the tree hole that was filled with fruits.
However, no matter how hard they searched, the entire place was sealed shut. They couldn’t find any escape routes, and even if they tried to destroy the tree wall, they were unable to break through it. After half an hour, Zhuo Yifan looked bitterly towards Wang Baole.
“Baole, there’s no way out of here...”
Zhao Yang fell silent. Even though she didn’t speak, she looked at Wang Baole in a similar manner.
Wang Baole hadn’t realized that he had sohow beco the leader of the trio. With Zhao Yang and Zhuo Yifan looking at him, he walked about in frustration, piercing his sword into the tree wall.
A loud bang was produced, and the flying sword recoiled from impact. Looking at the tree wall that wasn’t damaged at all, Wang Baole grew frustrated and troubled. However, his gaze shimred as torrents of thoughts appeared in his mind. Since the beginning, he had a question about the reason why the tree seed not to have realized that the three of them had erged out of the fruit and that he had absorbed large amounts of Spirit Qi.
Wang Baole didn’t have an answer to that. He thought that it was either there was sothing wrong with the tree that caused it to fall into a slumber, or that the ssy existences inside his body had disrupted the giant tree’s consciousness.
It could also be that everything was a result of both possibilities. As he thought, Wang Baole recognized that waiting there could perhaps be safer; however, it was also very possible that a crisis would happen. After all, the giant tree had the ability to send fake voice transmissions. Pinning all their hopes on waiting for the Dao College to realize that sothing was amiss and send help would take too long.
At the sa ti, a crisis could strike at any ti. Passively waiting and not looking for help didn’t fit Wang Baole’s personality. With a vicious look in his eyes, Wang Baole spoke, “Yifan, Yang, be my guardians!”
As Wang Baole spoke, he imdiately stepped out and dashed towards the tree-root looking tree wall, hugging it tightly, and shouted, “Absorb!”
When he spoke, the devouring seed, black lightning, and purple sea inside his body erupted imdiately. An incredible suction force erged from Wang Baole’s body, which flowed along the tree wall and spread within the entire tree hole, sucking and swallowing everything in its path in a crazy manner!
Since there are no exits, then I will treat this place like a gigantic fruit. Absorbing everything here would naturally cause the surrounding tree walls to dry up and crack. I don’t believe that I won’t be able to escape then! Wang Baole gave it his all!
The instant the existences within Wang Baole’s body were released, the tree he was hugging vibrated violently. Waves of imnsely strong Spirit Qi were directed swiftly towards Wang Baole’s body.
There was so much Spirit Qi—especially with them containing vitality—that after it entered Wang Baole’s body, the devouring seed, black lightning, and purple sea began to grow excited—it was as if they were finally rehydrated after a period of dehydration. They each swallowed the Spirit Qi without holding back.
