Jared lay at the bottom of the crater with blood trickling down the corner of his mouth. With his current strength as a newly-advanced Martial Arts God, he was still no match for a Top Level Martial Arts God.
In terms of power and speed, a Top Level Martial Arts God was way beyond a normal Martial Arts God, as the former required only the right opportunity to break through to the Martial Arts Sovereign level.
Jared struggled to get up. Although he knew it was almost impossible for him to defeat a Top Level Martial Arts God with his existing abilities, he would never give up and wait idly for death.
All he needed was to figure out a way to absorb more power to accomplish another breakthrough. That way, he would have what it takes to face off against Elgado.
However, aside from the two Spirit Connecting Fruits in his Storage Ring, there wasn't anything else around him that could rapidly boost his abilities. But if I consume these two Spirit Connecting Fruits, Flaxseed and Godrick will have no hope of recovery and will remain bedridden for life. I can't do this. I must save both of them!
Another method was to absorb Skyler's power to achieve a breakthrough, but doing that would cause Skyler to die and be turned into a dried corpse.
Jared couldn't do that either. I can't hurt my friend for my own benefit!
While Jared was overwhelmed by despair inside the deep crater, he suddenly felt streams of spiritual energy flowing speedily beneath his feet.
Jared hastily looked down in surprise and discovered a thick tree root now exposed before him.
Staring at the tree root and sensing the dense spiritual energy circulating within, Jared was overjoyed. I'm guessing this the root of the Spirit Connecting Tree.
An enormous Spirit Connecting Tree like that undoubtedly contained tremendous spiritual energy. If Jared refined the spiritual energy within the Spirit Connecting Tree for his own use, accomplishing a breakthrough would be the least of his worry.
Jared gently touched the Spirit Connecting Tree's root with his hand, and a large influx of power instantly engulfed him.
At that moment, the force surged within him and circulated in his elixir field.
