The Human Emperor (200-400)

C240: Steady Rise in Cultivation!

【Congratulations to user for killing eleven soldiers of the Goguryeo Empire!】a mechanical voice sounded in Wang Chong’s head. Along with that voice, a frenzied gust of wind blew, and a huge surge of Origin Energy seeped into Wang Chong’s muscles and bones.

In that instant, Wang Chong clearly felt his cultivation lifting by a notch. The Bane of the Battlefield halo that he harnessed was also enhanced significantly.

Killing a Goguryeon warrior actually induced a rise in both Wang Chong’s Origin Energy and halo. There was no better way to raise his fighting prowess than this.

Curbing his opponent with Sword Qi of Massacre and absorbing his Origin Energy with Little Yinyang Art; not only was he getting rid of his enemies, he was also getting stronger with each person killed...

With this, Wang Chong was slowly realizing what he failed to achieve in his previous life.

“To think that I thought the Little Yinyang Art’s limitation of absorbing only a small portion of Origin Energy from a severely wounded person was a major flaw; from the looks of it now, this ability is already overpowered in its current state!”

As the saying went, “a hundred rumors are incomparable to an actual observation.” The real Little Yinyang Art was very different from what Wang Chong had imagined.

Absorbing the internal energy of a person wasn’t an easy task, and to do so adeptly required great mastery. In comparison, Little Yinyang Art’s ability to absorb the Origin Energy of an incapacitated opponent could already be considered to be extremely formidable.

“Gongzi, you resemble an assassin much more than I do now!” a familiar voice sounded behind him. From a nearby tree, Miyasame Ayaka, dressed in a black stealth suit, slid down from the branches, her movements as light as an agile cat. Then, she slowly walked toward Wang Chong.

She had been observing the entire incident from the tree, and she was prepared to strike whenever things went awry. She didn’t expect Wang Chong to end things so cleanly in such a short period of time, leaving all of the preparations she made useless.

“Hehe, you might not have eaten pork before, but surely you should have seen a pig running about?” Wang Chong chuckled.

“Gongzi?!” Miyasame Ayaka was stunned for a moment before her cheeks flushed red. Wang Chong was clearly teasing her.

“Hahaha…” Wang Chong laughed heartily.

“Alright, let’s go. Also, clear the body so that we don’t alarm the Goguryeons.” Wang Chong ordered. Following which, he walked up, squatted down, and patted the body of the Origin Energy Tier 9 Goguryeon corpse down. Soon, he found something.

It was a two-finger wide wooden box with a faint fragrance to it. Considering how it was hidden on the Goguryeon warrior’s chest, it seemed to be something he viewed as important.

Padah, Wang Chong opened the wooden box, and a golden Goguryeon ginseng came into sight.

“It’s indeed here!”

Seeing the ginseng in the box, Wang Chong chuckled, seemingly expecting this sight. The reason why he assaulted this Goguryeon warrior wasn’t just to train his Little Yinyang Art and Bane of the Battlefield halo.

He had another goal in mind—the Goguryeon ginseng.

Goguryeon ginsengs were famous worldwide. Based on the maturity of the ginseng, its color could range from white to golden. Judging from the color of the ginseng in the wooden box, it possessed a maturity of at least two to three hundred years.

The Zhuang Clan and Chi Clan had to go through so much trouble just to produce a Goguryeon ginseng of that maturity each, but these Goguryeon warriors are actually carrying one such ginseng each. While Goguryeo might not be big, it does have a lot of experts, and these Goguryeon ginsengs played a vital role in that!, Wang Chong thought, looking at the ginseng in his hand.
