Having personally witnessed Kongdao and Zhao Yameng's Core Formation, Wang Baole was able to see the core of their Cultivation Techniques.
Generally speaking, when Cultivators broke through from the Foundation Establishment stage to the Core Formation stage, they would enter secluded meditation in a quiet place. Not only did they not want to be disturbed, but they also wanted to be secretive.
However, it was clear that both Kongdao and Zhao Yameng trusted Wang Baole very much. At the same time, Wang Baole couldn't help but compare the two of them. However, the more he compared them, the more he felt that Kongdao was extraordinary.
"He didn't inherit the Eye of Ten Thousand Techniques, but the moment he broke through, he revealed an illusory eye that was almost the same as Zhao Yameng's …. Kongdao is extraordinary!" Wang Baole patted Kongdao's shoulder.
"That's right. Keep it up! Our Adonis Association now has another great general!" Wang Baole laughed. Kongdao also looked excited. After all, the Core Formation stage and the Foundation Establishment stage were two completely different stages. As a Cultivator of the same generation as Wang Baole, he felt a lot of pressure in his heart. Wang Baole's cultivation speed was simply too fast. Now that he had reached the Core Formation stage, he could finally relax.
They thanked Wang Baole. Seeing that the place was about to be engulfed by the Sea of Fire, the two of them didn't stay for long. They took out their Spirit Boats and left quickly. After they left, large amounts of Sea of Fire surged in, and the catacombs were finally engulfed by the Sea of Fire. In the outside world, the ancient battlefield had caved in considerably.
The journey was smooth and they didn't encounter any obstacles. Soon, the two of them flew out of the sea of fire and returned to Wang Baole's Green Fire Island. Inside his Immortal's Cave, Kongdao watched as Wang Baole calmed down. Wang Baole took out all of his spoils.
The harvest this time was not small. Although there were many miscellaneous items inside, they all had a certain value. The most eye-catching items were three. One was the enormous pill furnace, the other was the jade box, and the last was the stone bat statue!
Because the cave had been opened for the first time in many years, all of the items were well preserved. Under the two of them's observation, they found that there were pills inside the pill furnace!
However, because he didn't know exactly what type of medicinal pill it was, he couldn't open the furnace carelessly. After all, although Wang Baole wasn't very familiar with concocting medicinal pills, he still had some general knowledge. He understood that as the final step of concocting medicinal pills, different medicinal pills required different methods of opening the furnace. Therefore, after some discussion, the pill furnace was taken away by Kongdao. He would try to find someone to analyze and open the furnace.
Next was the jade box. Although it was sealed, the strength of the seal wasn't very strong. Its most important function was to isolate its aura. As Wang Baole and Kongdao worked together, the jade box was opened, revealing … a withered fruit!
The fruit was dry and wrinkled, and was about the size of an egg. It looked very ordinary, but as soon as the jade box was opened, a strange aroma wafted out. The aroma was very strong, and Wang Baole only had to sniff it for a moment before his expression changed. He felt refreshed, and even his Spiritual Sense was much more active than usual.
Wang Baole's spirits were lifted. What he desired the most right now was a method to increase his Spiritual Sense. This fruit seemed to have that property. Therefore, Wang Baole quickly said,
"Kongdao," he said, "this fruit is useful to me!"
Kong Dao knew that the item was extremely valuable. However, after hearing Wang Baole's words, he didn't hesitate. He pushed the jade box towards Wang Baole and didn't look at it again. He didn't even care about the bat statue as he spoke.
"Take the statue with you," he said. "If it comes back to life one day, I won't be able to handle it."
Wang Baole didn't try to be pretentious. He nodded, and then gave Kongdao seventy percent of the rest of the valuable items. Kongdao smiled, and didn't stand on ceremony. It was in this way that the two of them were very satisfied. At the same time, their cultivation bases improved. Kongdao broke through to Core Formation, and Wang Baole made a big step forward in mid Core Formation. Both of them were delighted, and then they talked about the eight or nine murderous Vast Expanse cultivators they had encountered in the catacombs.
"Although I broke through," said Kongdao in a low voice, his expression solemn. "I sensed danger, so I scanned the outside world and saw Li Bin …."
"Baole, you have to be careful. That Li Bin … I know a bit about him. He's vicious and merciless, and has a certain amount of influence among the disciples of the Vast Expanse Dao Palace. No one dares to provoke him. In fact, it's said that some of our fellow disciples have died at his hands …. However, because his Master is Yuanying, and he's a powerful late Core Formation cultivator himself, he's been able to neutralize all of them.
"Now that he's set his sights on us, given his vengeful and greedy personality, he'll definitely find an opportunity to make things difficult for us!" As Kongdao spoke, his eyes grew cold. Although his cultivation base had just reached Core Formation, his murderous aura was thick. He narrowed his eyes and spoke in a low voice.
"I suggest that we find an opportunity to gather some of our own people and get rid of Li Bin, once and for all!"
Hearing Kongdao's words, a smile appeared on Wang Baole's face. He had the same idea. However, this matter required some planning. After all, killing someone was easy. The difficult part was the aftermath.
Wang Baole thought for a moment. After giving some instructions to Kongdao, Kongdao left. "There's a high chance of us being discovered in the sword hilt. Unless we have no other choice, let's not do anything in the sword hilt. Keep an eye on Li Bin and see if he goes to the sword hilt. If he does, make sure he doesn't return!"
After sending Kong Dao off with his eyes, Wang Baole returned to his cave abode and immediately opened the jade box again. He took out the dried fruit and took a whiff of it. That refreshing feeling appeared again. This time, he felt it carefully. He was certain that if he could absorb the fruit's aura for a long period of time, his Spiritual Sense would definitely grow as his Spiritual Sense became active.
"An immortal fruit that can increase one's spiritual sense …" Wang Baole licked his lips. He wanted to swallow the fruit, but when he saw how dried it was, he couldn't help but hesitate.
"I can't eat it carelessly. What if I get a stomachache …" Wang Baole thought for a moment and decided to go back to the Vast Expanse Dao Palace to look for information. He wanted to see if he could find any clues about this fruit. As for asking Little Missy, Wang Baole didn't get any response. He knew Little Missy's temperament well. She would definitely pretend to be asleep if she didn't know something!
At that thought, Wang Baole sighed and sat down to cultivate. He stabilized the cultivation that he had gained from absorbing large amounts of Spirit Qi. The next morning, he walked out of his cave abode and headed straight for the Vast Expanse Dao Palace to look for information.
A month passed very quickly. To the Hundred Seedlings of the Federation, a full year had passed since they came to the Vast Expanse Dao Palace.
According to the agreement between the Federation and Feng Qiuran, the second batch of Hundred Seedlings of the Federation was about to arrive. However, Wang Baole realized that there wasn't any movement in the Vast Expanse Dao Palace. This made Wang Baole ponder.
In addition, he had spent some battle credits over the past month to search for information about the fruit. However, after much searching, he only managed to find six fruits that matched his requirements. Every one of them had extraordinary effects, and the six fruits were very similar. Wang Baole couldn't tell them apart at the moment.
Even so, this didn't stop him from using the dried fruit to cultivate. Over the past month, he had placed the fruit in front of him every time he cultivated. As a result, his spiritual sense became more active, and it grew noticeably.
This was most evident in the refinement of Dharmic Armaments. Although Wang Baole still couldn't refine a true eighth-grade Dharmic Armament, he was able to refine an eighth-grade Dharmic Armament out of ten times. The eighth-grade Dharmic Armament could be used twice.
Most importantly, he could clearly feel that he was on the right track. As long as his spiritual sense continued to grow, he would definitely be able to refine a true eighth-grade Dharmic Armament!
"Once I can refine an eighth-grade Dharmic Armament, with my knowledge of Dharmic Armaments and the exchange of battle credits, I am confident that I can refine my scabbard to a seventh-grade Dharmic Armament!"
Wang Baole lifted his head, his eyes filled with anticipation. All along, his scabbard had been extremely difficult to refine. On the one hand, it was the materials. On the other hand, it was different from ordinary Dharmic Armaments. It was more difficult. Furthermore, Wang Baole had a feeling that if he failed to refine it, he would suffer considerable damage to his body.
Before the seventh-grade Dharmic Armament, it was still fine. However, breaking through the seventh-grade Dharmic Armament from a sixth-grade Dharmic Armament was a crucial step. This was why Wang Baole was extremely cautious.
"And that long spear. When I can refine a true eighth-grade Dharmic Armament, I am confident that I can repair it. Although it won't be perfect, it will be able to unleash extremely powerful strength." Wang Baole's eyes lit up. During this period of time, he had also been cultivating his Lightning Immortal Transformation and Thearch Armor Inheritance. The Lightning Immortal Transformation was very successful, and the Lightning Avatar that he condensed became clearer.
However, he didn't make much progress with Thearch Armor Inheritance. The feeling that he lacked a catalyst was getting stronger. In fact, Wang Baole felt that he was only one step away.
"Or rather, what I lack is a kind of realization … That's not right. What exactly am I lacking … Or perhaps it's a demonstration?"
