Chapter 1421: Chapter 50: Promotion
âVice Sect Master Wang, the Sect, I leave it in your hands for the time being.â
Qu Shentongâs voice transmitted from the Spirit Rhinoceros Stone.
Wang Baâs gaze swept over the spirited Wuyuan King munching on a spirit fruit, about three feet tall yet holding onto a two-tael wide one, and he replied solemnly:
âWith two Elders and Guardian Pang within the Sect, the Sect Master need not worry.â
From inside the Spirit Rhinoceros Stone, Qu Shentong did not disagree but brought up another matter:
âElder Xumi is concerned and thus will also accompany me on this journey.â
...
âHowever, Elder Ji Ying will remain within the Sect.â
âAdditionally, I have withdrawn the majority of the Nascent Soul Cultivators guarding within the Sect Protection Array. Should any urgent matters arise, they can be immediately repurposed for Spiritual Lineage support. Vice Sect Master Wang, please remember this.â
Wang Ba pondered for a moment:
âIf we repurpose for Spiritual Lineage support, Iâm afraid it will increase the burden on the Spiritual Lineage⊠Wang Ba understands, Sect Master, rest easy.â
Qu Shentong had no more to say, confident that although Wang Ba had not been involved in the affairs of the Sect for some years, his proven steadiness meant there shouldnât be any significant issues.
Besides, they were only going to the Eightfold Sea to deal with the Yuanci perturbation and should return after a few years at most.
Of course, the main thing was that within the Sect, there still remained two Immortal Ascension stage beings to guard the Sect.
Not to mention those Class V Magic Treasure Patriarchs who stayed out of worldly affairs.
Although inconvenient to take action, in the event of real trouble, they could decisively intervene.
Having such stabilizers, even if something did happen, they could provide timely reinforcements.
After thinking it through and ensuring there were no oversights, Qu Shentongâs voice in the Spirit Rhinoceros Stone faded away.
Wang Ba pocketed the Spirit Rhinoceros Stone.
His Spiritual Sence reached out into the Pearl Dungeon, sweeping across the Sect.
But he could no longer sense the aura of Qu Shentong, Daoist Yuanci, and the many Nascent Soul Cultivators.
At first glance, it seemed the Sect hadnât lost many people.
But amongst the Sectâs Nascent Soul Cultivators, aside from those bound by miscellaneous Sect duties and unable to leave, the majority had vanished.
For Wang Ba, such a situation was too rare, causing him to be momentarily stunned.
After a long while, he retracted his Spiritual Sence.
He carefully felt the state of his own Nascent Soul, then Wang Baâs gaze once again fell on the little monkey, his eyes filled with a hint of emotion:
âMy old friend, I never expected your Enlightenment to last this long.â
âThe last time I saw you was over ninety years ago.â
âHee!â
The little monkey raised its head, almost buried in the spirit fruit, and flashed a grin at Wang Ba, showing its slightly yellowed canine teeth.
Beneath its feet lay a scattering of various spirit fruit cores.
Clutching the spirit fruit, it hopped in front of Wang Ba and lovingly rubbed its head against his hand, then eagerly buried its head back into the spirit fruit with a large, exaggerated bite taken out.
Seeing the Wu Monkey Kingâs rare and simple charm, Wang Ba couldnât help but chuckle.
He gently stroked the Monkey Kingâs slightly coarse and split fur.
A gentle breeze blew, causing the leaves of the two large trees behind him to rustle.
At this moment, Wang Baâs gaze was calm and serene.
Within his body, a harmonious and nascent aura gradually emerged and broke free.
Contemplating this rare breakthrough process.
For the breakthrough he had been cultivating for over the past year, it was finally coming to fruition.
From deep within his body, a multicolored Spiritual Light began to seep out from the pores of his skin, followed by blue, purple, starlight, and crimsonâŠ
The next moment, he opened his mouth slightly.
An infant imbued with nine-colored Spiritual Light and wrapped in Divine Patterns, with Yin and Yang Qi swirling in its nose and a crimson lotus twisting on its forehead, leapt out with a bound.
Dao rhymes filled the air, mysterious and profound.
At the center of the Pearl Dungeon, the cultivation of many yearsâ worth of pure Spiritual Energy rapidly liquefied into a huge tide rushing towards it!
It acted like a vortex, voraciously swallowing the surrounding Spiritual Energy.
But this was still not enough.
Wang Ba was prepared; from his sleeves, he quickly released countless essences of Spirit Chickens and pure Essences of Stone Lizards, as well as numerous toxin-free Elixirs.
At his current status, these things were simply a matter of calling out for.
Including various essences of spirit food, they were also handled by people from the Spirit Food Department and some âSpiritual Cook Chickensâ he had cultivated.
Saving him an unknown amount of energy.
This is the benefit of being in a great Sect.
With these many essences and Elixirs, the infantâs body began to grow and strengthen rapidly.
In just a few breathsâ time.
It had grown from a three-month-old baby into a five- or six-year-old child.
In the childâs features, one could faintly make out the contours of Wang Ba.
But compared to him, it looked much more delicate.
Soon, the Nascent Soul seemed to have grown to its limit, with no more changes.
The surrounding Spiritual Energy also gradually subsided.
However, from within the lotus on the Nascent Soulâs forehead, a crimson radiance suddenly shot out, revealing the temple of the Yin God.
The growth of the Nascent Soul seemed to have also caused some changes to this temple.
The already expanded temple of the Yin God grew even more.
The remaining scarce Yin God Power within the temple also naturally began to condense.
Shortly after.
The temple of the Yin God returned to the center of the Nascent Soulâs forehead.
And the Nascent Soul transformed into a rainbow light, plunging into the mouth of Wang Ba, who was seated below.
Wang Ba likewise opened his eyes.
His pupils were abuzz with Spiritual Light, bristling with energy.
Feeling the enhancement of the Nascent Soul, his comprehension of heaven and earth seemed to have become even clearer.
A sudden joy of achieving Dao welled up in his heart:
âNascent Soul middle-stageâŠâ
âThe Divine Position of the Yin God has indeed been elevated as well.â
