Chapter 328: Spirit Power

The pain was certainly the sharpest weapon in that situation, so the biting of his tongue was enough to make him regain a bit of conscience, and strength to make the last steps towards salvation.

As soon as he jumped past the line though, he immediately lost any sense or clarity left, falling into the ground like some useless balloon.

The surprising point was that even in that state, and condition, he still tried his best to fall on his back, in order to protect the beauty in his arms.

Ren Jia was clearly shocked by everything that her Master had done, and especially knowing that he had done everything for her.

If he had been alone, he might have even tried to fight against those puppets, after all with the strength he had shown previously to her, it was impossible for him to end up like this.

Furthermore, he had that weird skill of his that could turn these puppets into his possessions, even though it would dull his senses for a bit, so he might even reverse the danger upon himself.

The only reason he didn't do that, and even ended in his current situation was clearly due to her, and her safety.

So, seeing Eric down on the ground unconscious she was immediately startled and worried about him, as she immediately started cleaning his wounds, and taking care of him like a devoted wife.

Her current position was just a lowly slave, and she knew that her Master must have many other women by his side, as he was extremely strong and powerful, but she still couldn't help but dream.

Dreaming of one day becoming someone precious to him, dreaming of one day fully entering his heart.

Even she herself was unable to understand how it was possible for him to become that precious to her in such a short time, but it was clearly not as an effect of her slave seal.

The slave seal was working inside her, telling her to become loyal and obedient to him all the time, but her feelings at the moment weren't just loyalty and obedience.

After all, being a slave had nothing to do with the wish of being a precious lover to her Master, that was her own desire, greed, and ambition.

Thinking like that, she couldn't help but feel that it was crazy as well, but she had truly fallen in love with her Master.

From that moment on she would do everything, and anything for him, no matter what. She wouldn't give up on fulfilling his wishes and ambitions, even if it meant giving up her life.

…

Eric woke up with a slight headache, and the moment he opened his eyes he saw the clear and beautiful eyes of Ren Jia looking at him with worry, care, and surprise.

Seeing him open his eyes, she got extremely happy immediately but at the same time she couldn't help but feel guilty and apologetic,

"I am sorry Master! Just for my sake, you…"

But she wasn't able to continue for long, as Eric suddenly blocked her lips with his, while his hands started roaming over her body.

In a short amount of time, the two of them started moaning, panting, and melting into each other embrace, like they were long-separated lovers.

In fact, Eric didn't start making love with Ren Jia just to shut her mouth, and release her from her guilty thoughts, and feelings, but because it was a great way to regenerate his Spirit Power.

There were three ways to quickly regenerate one spirit, one was calm meditation, the second was rest, and the third but not least happiness.

This third option was a bit vague and quite difficult to explain, but as long as one was happy or was able to have a positive experience, then his Spirit Power would regenerate quickly.

Love of two bodies, between a man and a woman was an extremely happy and positive thing for Eric, especially considering the fact that he didn't get tired of it, and his stamina seemed bottomless.

After 2 hours of activities, and a quick bath, Eric felt like his whole body had undergone some kind of Nirvana and now he was completely refreshed.

Not only that, but he also discovered that his Spirit Power had received quite the boost too, as it had jumped from that 114 to 1.3*.

The two numbers were clearly incomparable with each other, but the moment he read that explanation he felt like his heart was going to stop suddenly.

*Congratulations to the Host for reaching the second realm of spiritual power. The advance to beyond level 100 is guaranteed as long as the Host's vessel reaches the requirements!

This explanation made Eric's heart clearly beat faster, but at the same time, it provided him with some extremely important information.

To advance between levels and get stronger on his path he didn't need just his body, and the Experience or Qi he retrieved from the surroundings and the Legacy System, but also Spirit Power.

Especially when it was a matter of surpassing big Realms, and not just levels anymore. The need for Spirit Power was vital to his breakthrough.

Since in his previous life he hadn't been able to surpass level 100, he never knew about something like this, and now that he learned about it, he couldn't help but feel a bit weird inside.

Another important variable had appeared in front of him, vital for him to become stronger, and it was something that he truly needed to pay attention to from this point on.

His body and qi were important, but spirit power was as important as the two, so he would have to make a new training program for himself.

Well, now wasn't the time to stay and think about that, as he had much more important things to take care of.

Giving a few kisses to the already sleeping beauty in his arms, he quickly got dressed in flexible and easy-to-fight clothes, left a small note for the sleeping beauty, and entered the tunnel once again.

Inside the tunnel, he immediately spread his Spirit Sense as far as he could in order to notice his opponents, but there was no sign of them.

It seemed like he was completely alone in there, and there was nothing suspicious inside the tunnel, but he understood perfectly that his opponents were somewhere inside waiting for him.

But this situation was extremely troublesome for him, as his enemy was in the dark while he was in the light.

Not necessarily the best way to describe the current situation, considering the fact that he was inside a dark tunnel, but the fact remained that his enemy had vision on him, while he didn't.

If he just proceeded forward in this situation, then it wasn't any different from trying to walk pathetically towards his own death.

He had to find a way to either make his enemy appear in front of him or make himself disappear in front of the enemy, not that he would complain if there was a way that made both possible.

Before taking another step towards the dark tunnel, he was finally able to remember something extremely important.

When he saved Ren Jia the first time from the first puppets, he was using a Medium Stealth Talisman.

Furthermore, from the information he had about these puppets, he also knew that these things had a weak spirit ability and couldn't really 'sense' the area.

They could only rely on their normal senses that were just a bit stronger than a normal person. That was for the general type of puppets though, as there were also special types.

These special types were different from the general ones as they specialized in a 'talent', like for example that leader puppet earlier must specialize in intelligence and coordination.

But that type of puppets was rare, even among the special types, the normal or general special types included the hound types used in tracking, the sensor type used in the sensing area, etc.

Eric had no idea whether there was a sense-type puppet in the small army of 50 puppets this time, but he could do nothing but be extremely careful and gamble this time.

He felt that as long as he was able to mark the puppet leader, then his chances of marking the whole army were more than 62%.

Otherwise, he would be forced to use his Escape Talismans and escape this damned place to return later and have another try.

With these thoughts in mind, he quickly bought another Medium Stealth Talisman, as his heart started bleeding at the situation of his SP points.

Not too long ago, during his training trip to Africa, he had managed to collect a frightening amount of more than 1.3 million SP points, while now he was left with nothing more than 9300 SP points.

This was truly damaging for his soul, but it wasn't like he had squandered them uselessly either, as his strength had advanced by leaps and bounds, but it was still now enough, far from enough.

In fact, the more he proceeded further with his life, and strength, the more he found out that his previous life had been nothing more than a weak illusion.

He had thought that he was someone strong, someone, who could make the rain and sun alternate, but he was nothing more than a toad at the bottom of the well.

If it weren't for his extreme luck at the end of his life, and his anger of revenge, he would never be able to have this second chance towards the glory and peak he wished for.

With those thoughts in mind, he stopped caring about it, as he immediately activated the Medium Stealth Talisman and started advancing forward carefully…
