Wang Baole, at the mid-stage Core Formation realm, was someone who could unleash Dugu Lin's first level seal and battle it at an equal level. However, he wasn't someone who could make Dugu Lin unleash his second level seal.
However, right now, everything had changed. As the devouring seed devoured and counter-nourished, Wang Baole achieved a breakthrough in his cultivation, reaching the late-stage Core Formation realm. He was only a small step away from entering the perfected Core Formation realm!
That form of breakthrough was also a leap in terms of physical qualities. Right now, not only did it allow Wang Baole's injuries to fully recover, but it also caused all the cultivation in his body to send shock waves in all directions.
