"WHOOSH!"
The earlier shocks and impacts paled in comparison to the astonishment brought by the final words of the old tree stump. Hu Ma nearly lost his composure.
A suppression object?
A suppression object, according to the records in the Age Suppressing Book required for conducting rituals on a Magic Altar, was a necessary item, and its spiritual energy was indeed closely related to the outcome of the ritual. Hu Ma had always been attentive in collecting these.
But, the old tree stump... What kind of cultivation did it possess? The handful of soil beneath it contained endless Mana, yet it was willing to be his suppression object? This meant it was lowering its own status. Once it became his suppression object, he would be above on the altar, and it willingly took the position below the altar. If it had directly intervened to help solve his problems, Hu Ma wouldn't have been so surprised.
