NOVPUBIn the palm of his hand, a clear green light shone brightly.
"Is he planning to push through in one go?"
In front of Wang Ba, Ge Shoucheng’s Spiritual Sense detected Wang Ba’s movement, and a flicker of surprise crossed his eyes.
Opening a Dantian was indeed best done in one determined effort.
But the requirements for the controller were extremely high.
Especially since this Wind Style Mana belonged to the Nascent Soul stage, and moreover, it wasn’t Wang Ba’s own.
The difficulty of this task was akin to a three-year-old child lifting a massive cauldron, carving out a millennium’s masterpiece on a grain of rice with the cauldron’s handles.
The enormity of the challenge made even Ge Shoucheng’s expression turn gravely serious.
A faint sigh in his heart:
"I had thought this Martial Nephew Wang hadn’t been influenced by Senior Brother Yao, but it seems I was wrong. Martial Nephew Wang is as arrogantly confident as his master."
"I’ll need to keep a close eye later, lest he loses control of the Mana and damages the Wind Summoning Bell, wasting it all for naught."
Deciding on a course of action in his heart, Ge Shoucheng’s deep and profound Mana, as if from an abyss, slowly spread out around him.
He was ready to intervene at the first sign of mishap.
Soon, it seemed that Wang Ba had finally accumulated enough Wind Style Mana.
The light that was originally only in his palm now spread to his hand and entire arm.
And the brightness of the light illuminated half of Shenxiu Peak.
Just as it seemed that Wind Style Mana had been amassed to the pinnacle, Ge Shoucheng was ready to cease the transfer of Mana.
However, Wang Ba appeared to have sensed something and softly said,
"Uncle Master, please continue to channel Mana..."
Ge Shoucheng couldn’t help but be startled.
He looked at Wang Ba in astonishment, only to see his eyes clear and bright, showing he was certainly not out of his wits.
After a moment of hesitation, he said solemnly,
"Martial Nephew Wang, if you feel anything wrong later on, call out to me immediately."
Wang Ba nodded slightly.
Ge Shoucheng immediately discontinued the conversation, and as he agitated his Mana, a gentle flow of Wind Style Mana started to trickle in once more.
At this moment, Wang Ba finally made his move.
The Mana in his palm seemed no longer containable and began to surge forth.
Seeing this, Ge Shoucheng’s face tensed, his expression extremely solemn.
However, what surprised Ge Shoucheng was, despite the surge of his Mana, there was no sign of it going out of control.
The Wind Style Mana from him, under Wang Ba’s meticulous control, slowly enshrouded the whole Wind Summoning Bell.
Soon, the green light gradually seeped into the bell.
Slow and steady.
"This... such brilliant control of Mana!"
Ge Shoucheng couldn’t help but be moved, and the look he gave Wang Ba was filled with deep astonishment.
To speed up the flow of Mana is easy, but to slow it down while keeping it steady is very difficult.
The former can be achieved simply by letting go of control, while the latter demands a high level of manipulation over Mana.
And here Wang Ba was, controlling Mana that was a whole realm higher than his own, yet so stable. The difficulty of controlling this Mana was beyond imagination.
"This Martial Nephew Wang is naturally suited for cultivating ’Ride the Wind’ Six Methods."
Ge Shoucheng thought to himself.
Wind Style Mana is exceptionally active, far surpassing the Five Elements, and thus the requirements for Mana control are similarly far greater than other cultivation methods.
Given Wang Ba’s displayed control, he was simply a natural disciple for Shenxiu Peak.
"It’s a pity..."
Ge Shoucheng shook his head silently.
The former Invincible Yao Wudi, now an Immortal Ascension Venerable, was unlikely to have disciples joining other peaks.
Even if it was Shenxiu Peak.
As his thoughts ebbed and flowed, Ge Shoucheng’s attention was drawn back to Wang Ba’s Dantian opening endeavor.
But soon, his face showed a trace of astonishment.
"So stable!"
Before his eyes, Wang Ba was controlling the green light, immersing the Wind Summoning Bell in an extremely even manner.
Then, step by step, he penetrated the bell completely.
As the bell was saturated in an instant, under Wang Ba’s control, the green light began the development of the wind spiritual root Dantian.
And in just a few breaths, 𝓃𝓸𝓋𝓅𝓊𝒷.𝓬𝓸𝓂
A brilliant streak of green light suddenly shone within the Wind Summoning Bell!
Afterward, a faint vortex formed slowly on the surface of the bell.
"He’s done it in one fell swoop! It’s a success!"
Ge Shoucheng’s eyes lit up involuntarily.
But then, he suddenly paused.
As the wind spiritual root Dantian formed, Wang Ba did not stop. The remnant Wind Style Mana on his arm, as if drawn by the Dantian’s vortex, rushed uncontrollably towards the Second Dantian.
"Not good!"
Ge Shoucheng’s gaze sharpened. He abruptly cut off the input of Mana and quickly moved to control Wang Ba.
But Wang Ba’s voice sounded at the same time:
"Uncle Master... don’t hurry."
Though his voice was somewhat strained, the determination in it caused Ge Shoucheng to pause.
Then he saw within Wang Ba’s Wind Summoning Bell, the exceedingly fragile vortex, under the surge of extremely pure and condensed Wind Style Mana, didn’t fall apart.
It appeared on the verge of collapsing, but it perfectly withstood the impact of the Wind Style Mana, even gradually drawing the Mana into the Second Dantian.
Inside the Dantian, the sense of breakthrough rose swiftly.
From Qi Refining Stage I, Stage II... to Qi Refining tenth layer, in the blink of an eye, there was even a feeling of nearing Foundation Establishment.
Ge Shoucheng finally reacted, his face showing surprise:
"The control... it’s still about control!"
Of course, more importantly, it was because the Mana used for the opening of the Dantian was his own, and there was no rejection reaction to the participation of Wang Ba’s body, allowing the transformation of his Mana into Wang Ba’s own foundation.
