Chapter 1264: The Great River of Dao (III)
Within the Hao Cosmos.
“Lin Hongyu’s definitely got some skill to her name.” Li Hao breathed out with a smile. “It looks like you don’t need to absorb too much, Panth. We just need to increase the other attributes...”
There had been too much fire energy moments ago and too little wind energy. Panther had to swallow enormous amounts of energy to maintain a balance. But now that the wind cultivators were entering a second round of cultivation, that infused wind energy into the dao universe. It eased the demands on the dog and gave it time to digest.
As for how Lin Hongyu would continue to adjust on the fly... Li Hao laughed. That was her problem to consider. If she wanted to gain something from these risks, she had to expend some effort in return. He would worry about that if she really couldn’t hold on any further.
Panther panted heavily nearby, a constant string of explosions going off inside of it. The dog finally had some breathing space to work with. It fully absorbed the dao power that it’d devoured and forced dao meridians open, one after another.
Panther was fourth level Sun and Moon to begin with, now it grew stronger at a rate visible to the naked eye. The dog reached sixth level Sun and Moon in the blink of an eye and continued to advance. Its body could withstand the strain since monster spirits possessed stronger bodies than humans.
Li Hao turned his attention to the creek of dao strength that had formed. It flowed very slowly, but the young man sucked in a sharp breath when he looked into the distance.
This river... was only one-hundredth of the sword river’s length. That meant there needed to be ninety-nine more creeks like these to complete a true river of stars!
“Panth... we’re only one percent through!”
“...awwwrooo!” Panther keened with despair. No way!
“I’m not kidding, so this means there’s still 99% left of energy to absorb. Can you... hold up beneath all that?” Li Hao was also quite resigned.
“...arf arf arf!” The dog furiously shook its head. However cocky and proud of itself it had been earlier was how adamantly it protested now. Just one percent nearly killed me, there’s ninety-nine left? I’ll explode for sure!
