Chapter 1014 — Baffled Beyond Belief: Wei Zhao's Body, Like a Mere Relay Station, Channeling the Energy of the Jade Pendant's Space into Uncle Qing's Body
The Blossom Guardian · Page 1 of 2
Still, swift as Wei Zhao drew the energy in, not a trace of it lingered within his own body; instead, every last drop flowed in an unbroken stream into Uncle Qing. Uncle Qing's body was like a bottomless pit, ceaselessly devouring the energy Wei Zhao passed to it!
Naturally, Wei Zhao was hardly astonished. The Mighty General had already needed a great deal of energy back then; how much more so a full-grown man like Uncle Qing!
Joy still lingered on Uncle Qing's face, but before long it gave way to astonishment. He had assumed that once Wei Zhao poured a measure of energy into him as a foundation, the flow would stop — after all, as the old saying goes, the master leads you through the gate, but the cultivation is up to the individual. From here on, Uncle Qing had intended to rely on himself!
He had never dared hope that Wei Zhao would keep supplying him with energy without end. Yet the situation now seemed nothing like what he had imagined, for Wei Zhao's energy kept on coming, without the faintest sign of stopping!
This left Uncle Qing quite startled. Could Wei Zhao sustain it? For Uncle Qing could feel that he was about to strike the barrier at the peak of the early Yellow Stage. Such a rate of advancement — surely it was the first in all of history? Hmm... apart from the Mighty General!
At the thought of the Mighty General, Uncle Qing could not help but admire Gu Pengzhan a little. Wherever had Mr. Gu dug up such a formidable man as Wei Zhao? This was getting a shade too ferocious — you could sit at home and manufacture experts!
Uncle Qing did not know who Wei Zhao truly was, nor which top-tier sect he hailed from, but from the mere fact that he could produce experts from the comfort of his own home, the man was no ordinary figure. At the very least, whatever lay behind Wei Zhao could be no smaller than his own sect — and quite possibly stronger!
At this, Uncle Qing's gaze grew hot. His desire for vengeance... was no longer impossible! Only Wei Zhao would probably not interfere; when the time came, he would have to strive for it himself.
"Boom!" Without the least warning, Uncle Qing broke through once more! From the peak of the early Yellow Stage he shot straight through to the mid Yellow Stage! At such a rate of advancement, Uncle Qing could not help clicking his tongue in secret. Too fast! Back in the day, it had taken him years to travel from the early Yellow Stage to the mid Yellow Stage — and how long had it been now? Three hours at most? In that time he had gone from an ordinary man to an expert of the mid Yellow Stage!
Thinking of those who cultivate bitterly, some for an entire lifetime without ever advancing, Uncle Qing could not help feeling a pang of sorrow. When one person is measured against another, the loser might as well be dead! For some, never mind rising from the early Yellow Stage to the mid Yellow Stage — even reaching the peak of the early Yellow Stage demands a long and arduous course of cultivation.
Yet Uncle Qing had broken through in the space of a few hours, without the slightest pressure.
Uncle Qing's arrival at the mid Yellow Stage, however, made Wei Zhao suffer. The energy required to advance him was plainly a great deal more than the Mighty General had needed. Wei Zhao felt as though his body had become a sieve, energy whooshing through him without pausing for an instant, until his meridians ached fiercely under the flood.
Still, for the sake of forging an Earth Stage expert, Wei Zhao endured. Once this succeeded, it would be nothing short of a historic breakthrough — and surely no one would ever imagine that he had produced a trump card in the form of an Earth Stage expert!
The mere thought of it set Wei Zhao bubbling with inexplicable excitement.
