A World Worth Protecting Chapter 372 – Foundation Establishment Late-Stage!

Wang Baole sat there feeling satisfied as he accepted Lin Tianhao’s greeting. Seeing how agitated Lin Tianhao was to be accepted into the Adonis Association, Wang Baole was heartened.

“I have toiled all my life, sacrificing my youth for the Federation, for the people, and for the Adonis Association, all without rest…” Wang Baole chatted briefly with Lin Tianhao before sending him away. He sat on the chair, munching on a chicken leg as emotional thoughts flooded his mind.

“I can imagine that perhaps in the future, there would be a day when I recount my deepest regrets. That would be creating the Adonis Association, as my greatest desire would be to live life peacefully like an ordinary person…” As he spoke, Wang Baole felt that his life was tough, as every few days, he would be kept busy for hours on end.

Sighing while shaking his head, Wang Baole ate a chicken leg and drank three bottles of Ice Spirit Water. After, he patted his stomach and took out a bag of potato chips, munching on them noisily as he walked out of his unadorned office to continue his inspection.

Half a month passed in the blink of an eye just like that. In the two weeks that passed, Wang Baole didn’t forget to continue his cultivation while eating and busying himself with various affairs. He was clear that in the Spirit Inception Era, cultivation was foundation.

That was especially so when he realized that as he proceeded with cultivation, the rate at which his cultivation was improving had been significantly increased, perhaps due to the emergence of the Dark Fire. Right now, he felt that he was just a step away from achieving a breakthrough.

Wang Baole had originally planned to wait and achieve a breakthrough naturally. In this way, he wouldn’t waste time used for eating and handling official affairs. However, the thought had emerged for less than two days when he realized that the donkey had achieved a breakthrough…

In the process of endless supervision and inspection of the resources, the donkey had somehow stepped into the Foundation Establishment realm!

That shocked Wang Baole, especially when he noticed that after the donkey reached Foundation Establishment realm that it put up a resistance when he wanted to check if it had gained any additional abilities, and even ran away…

At the same time, a look of arrogance appeared in its eyes, which made Wang Baole gasp as he stared on. He felt that the donkey no longer knew who his daddy was, and dared to resist the commands from a handsome person like him.

Trying to rebel, huh? In his anger, Wang Baole felt that he needed to teach the donkey a lesson so that it would understand that he would raise his son not just by calling it his son, but through beatings.

With that anger, Wang Baole activated his cultivation and caught up with the donkey. Without waiting for it to speak, he ordered it to shut its mouth, and then beat it up.

Immediately, the donkey was reduced to a pitiful state, but was unable to make a single noise and couldn’t escape. Wang Baole was only satisfied and stopped after the donkey revealed a look of obedience in its eyes. He then lifted the order for the donkey to shut its mouth. Noticing that the donkey wanted to make noise again, he kicked it hard.

Instantly, the donkey hurriedly shut its mouth, looking at Wang Baole obediently with a clear look of wanting to curry his favor.

“You know where you stand now, right? Say it, who are you to me?” Wang Baole spoke calmly, with his hands behind his back.

“Son! Son!” The donkey trembled. Even though it was unwilling, that was the only sound it could make. In its helplessness, it could only scream.

That scene was watched by the others who were busy with the construction work around them. They were bewildered, confused, and frightened, as they were also clueless as to how to treat the donkey. It took its responsibility as a supervisor seriously and had reached a maniacal level in its inspection of the resources, such that it would know even if a screw was missing.

That made many who were looking to earn a small fortune through the construction of the new city zone annoyed, but now that they noticed the donkey being beaten up, they were secretly happy.

However, they were delighted too early. When Wang Baole turned to leave while swaggering in an exaggerated manner, the donkey that seemed to have been beaten to the brink of being handicapped previously immediately leaped up, shivering as there was no damage to its roughened skin. When it turned, it looked ruthlessly at those busybodies and sneezed, growing even more enthusiastic and diligent in inspecting the resources.

It seemed to have realized that it was no match for Wang Baole, the tyrant. The helplessness it felt in its heart was channeled towards the busybodies instead.

Wang Baole could see that the little donkey had become even more maniacal and diligent, but didn’t care much. Right now, he was experiencing a lot of stress, as to him, the rate at which the donkey’s cultivation was improving was increasing swiftly.

If there happens to be a day when the donkey reaches Core Formation realm before me… Thinking about the consequences of that possibility, Wang Baole shuddered. His head felt numb as the scene of himself being savagely beaten by the donkey while he tried to run away surfaced continuously in his mind… Eventually, he might still have to yield to the donkey as he heard the donkey shouting ‘Son! Son!’.

That image was so frightening that Wang Baole’s heart palpitated rapidly. He hurriedly tried to wipe that sinister scene from his mind. After that, a look of determination appeared in his eyes as he immediately went into seclusion.

That shall never happen!

It must be mentioned that the breakthrough in the donkey’s cultivation agitated Wang Baole significantly, such that he put everything aside and went into seclusion. In the seclusion process, he didn’t bother about external affairs, having passed the responsibility to Lin Tianhao.

On the one hand, he believed in Lin Tianhao’s ability. On the other hand, the construction was going according to plan. As long as there were no hiccups, everything would go smoothly even without Wang Baole overseeing it.

Therefore, he settled down and immersed himself fully in cultivation. As he meditated with his legs crossed, he continually activated the force of his cultivation according to the initial teachings of Lightning Dao: First Volume in order to nurture the two Heavenly Thunders in his legs, while trying to carve the third lightning tattoo on his left arm to form the third Heavenly Thunder.

Other than that, Wang Baole also began practicing for the cultivation of Dark Fire while in seclusion. He soon realized that the rate of practicing the Dark Art outside the Divine Armament Catacombs was significantly faster than inside the Martian City by at least ten times.

That shocked Wang Baole. He vaguely felt that if there was no blockage by the seal of the Divine Armament Catacombs, the speed of his cultivation could be even faster.

As for the level that he would eventually be able to reach, Wang Baole couldn’t put his finger on it. To him, matters like these were both like a sharp blade and a matter of fate!

Wang Baole breathed rapidly, taking a while before he finally calmed down. He thought about it with a bizarre look in his eyes and didn’t attempt to try it out immediately in a rash manner. Instead, he calmed himself further, practicing the Dark Art in conjunction with the Lightning Dao: First Volume, continuously nurturing the third Heavenly Thunder and the third Dark Fire!

Days passed just like that. After a month, Wang Baole, who happened to be meditating, suddenly opened his eyes, and a chilly look was immediately revealed, as if Dark Fire was burning in his eyes. The ground around and beneath him instantly turned cold, with visible black sheets of ice forming on the walls around him.

That was not all. There was a current running through the ice. The area of seclusion looked extremely bizarre!

As for his cultivation, it had directly broken through Foundation Establishment mid-stage, reaching late-stage Foundation Establishment realm the moment he opened his eyes!

By the time he achieved a breakthrough in his cultivation, the construction going on outside the area of seclusion was more than fifty percent complete. It could be seen that the location where the prototype of the New Mars Region was located, which was where the Divine Armament Catacombs was, had been changed!

The appearance of the Divine Armament Catacombs had been transformed, with a large wall encircling it, enveloping it completely. There was a gigantic cover where waves of Spirit energy were churning within, forming several invisible Spirit threads.

The Spirit threads circled continuously in the area, occasionally criss-crossing over one another to form a huge net. That was part of Wang Baole’s plans to form a Dharmic Artifact meant to destroy the Beast Tide.

The Beast Tide wouldn’t be able to escape, and would immediately be torn to pieces by the Spirit thread. Their corpses and blood would fall to the ground and be absorbed by the array formation, forming the nourishment of the Qi Fostering Spirit Array Formation, resulting in the production of a cycle as it broke down the Beast Tide within the catacombs.

Now, the initial stages of the array formation had been completed. There were also many people guarding and repairing it. However, at that moment, within the Divine Armament Catacombs, a loud roar suddenly emerged, and the face that had appeared previously and shocked the entire Federation suddenly appeared again from under the array formation!

It was more vigorous this time, as if there was an existence it desired that made it want to dash out like a maniac.

This sudden change immediately threw everyone into a state of shock. As they retreated in fright, the emergence of that face activated the alert system, and ear-piercing alert rings reverberated in the large prototype of the new city zone.

Instantly, innumerable figures rushed to the location!
