Chapter 176: Chapter 151: Body Built to Take a Beating

Li Shiji pointed to a location on the map, and Li Cunxu instantly understood everything.

The island’s location is very close to the second city established by Tongdu in the previous life. This variety show is probably to showcase the island’s rich resources and oceanic resources to the public, as a warm-up for establishing the second city.

“Why didn’t I pay attention to this variety show in my past life?”

“Alright! I was busy grinding dungeons at that time in my past life.”

Li Cunxu thought to himself.

Li Cunxu agreed to participate in the island survival show.

The show will air on September 15th, and it’s still some time away.

Back at the ranch.

The Holy Lotus Carp was somewhat puzzled and bewildered, wondering why the Beast Master seemed so mysterious with his partners.

Deep in the ranch tunnel.

Xiaoruan, the White Spider, the Dark Crow, and the Mechanical Pupil formed a circle, with Li Cunxu and the Blood Lotus Carp standing in the middle.

The Blood Lotus Carp’s heart was uneasy with this mysterious atmosphere, and this circle-forming behavior seemed like a precursor to a ceremony. It suddenly thought of something.

Could it be an Evil God ceremony?

Blood Lotus Eye? Crimson Blood God?

Wasn’t Li Cunxu a follower of the Crimson Blood God?

Before the Blood Lotus Carp could continue with its wild thoughts, Li Cunxu’s finger gently touched its head.

Divine Bestowment!

A burst of radiant light exploded from the Blood Lotus Carp’s body, and the four creatures skillfully closed their eyes.

A moment passed, and the Blood Lotus Carp gained a new talent.

[Divine Bestowment: Unbreakable Body]

[Unbreakable Body: What doesn’t kill me makes me stronger.

Trait One: Sanctified Body, each time it takes a physical attack, its physique grows a little; the stronger the attack, the more it grows.

Trait Two: Sanctified Spirit, each time it takes a mental attack, its spiritual power grows a little; the stronger the attack, the more it grows.

Trait Three: Multiple Resistances, as it takes attacks of different attributes, its resistance to corresponding attributes increases.]

“This talent allows you to grow stronger just by getting hit, quite a powerful talent, but I feel like it was given to the wrong person.”

Li Cunxu murmured while touching his chin.

The Unbreakable Body would be more suitable for the masochist, the Dark Crow.

As for the Blood Lotus Carp, it should have been given a disciplined talent like One Punch Man.

Li Cunxu shook his head, “Having it is good enough; I’m actually being picky.”

The Blood Lotus Carp was deeply shocked and took a long time to recover.

“Owl~ (What…what’s going on here? How did I get such an amazing talent?)”

“My second talent [Divine Bestowment], grants a beast a talent for infinite growth. Alright, don’t be shocked, keep working hard, your predecessors also have talents with potential similar to your Unbreakable Body.”

Li Cunxu patted the smooth back of the Blood Lotus Carp and said.

The White Spider asked, “Blood Lotus, what’s your talent?”

The Blood Lotus Carp revealed its Unbreakable Body.

The White Spider sympathetically said, “Such a pity, you have to get hit to become stronger.”

The Blood Lotus Carp asked, “What talents have you all been bestowed with?”

The White Spider introduced them one by one, “Xiaoruan’s talent is [Soul Kingdom of Slimes], simply needing to expand the Slime tribe and collecting attribute tax to become stronger.”

“Mine is [Destiny Weaver], requiring interaction with others to gain destiny points. Destiny points are a universal currency; any attribute you want to enhance, you can enhance it.”

“Dark Crow’s talent is [Time Crow!], Though its growth rate is weaker, it can resurrect infinitely. Each resurrection increases its time affinity by one point.”

“Mechanical Pupil’s talent is [Quantum Superposition], allowing unlimited repeat installation of equipment. As long as you are willing to spend, its battle strength is limitless.”

Compared to other talents’ comfort, the Unbreakable Body was far inferior, but the Blood Lotus Carp didn’t mind at all.

As long as it could get stronger, getting hit was nothing; it could accept that.

The Blood Lotus Carp began its journey of the Unbreakable Body. Li Cunxu specifically borrowed a healing beast from Li Anle for it and asked his grandfather to capture a bound blood beast to allow the Blood Lotus Carp to use the Blood-sucking Lotus Seal to absorb blood for healing.

At Xiaoruan’s place, it worked on physique, various elemental resistances, with Xiaoruan releasing low-power skills at high frequency.

Physique +1, Strength +1, Speed +1…

Fire resistance +1, Water resistance +1, Wood resistance +1…

At the White Spider’s place, it worked on spiritual power and poison resistance, with the White Spider subjecting it to mental erosion poisons.

Spiritual Power +1

Poison Resistance +1

…

At the Dark Crow’s place, it worked on curse resistance.

Curse Resistance +1

…

No work done at the Mechanical Pupil’s place, as it was busy learning how to make weapons developed by the White Spider.

The comfort of the Unbreakable Body paled in comparison to other growth talents, but its growth rate was the fastest.

In just over ten days, the Blood Lotus Carp was able to battle bronze-level seven beasts.

During this time, Li Cunxu also took advantage of the feedback from the White Spider’s spiritual power enhancement to break through to the Silver level.

With the Blazing Pain Pill, and the resilient willpower it cultivated, Li Cunxu managed to endure the intense pain from the expansion of the Beast Taming Space once again.

The Silver-level Beast Taming Space could maximally have fifteen carrying points, but due to the fusion of his two souls, Li Cunxu had double, making it thirty carrying points.

With thirty carrying points, Li Cunxu wasn’t excessively happy because he felt it was what he deserved.

The carrying points were double that of others, but in bearing the pain that stabilized the Beast Taming Space, Li Cunxu suspected the pain he suffered was multiple times that of others.

If others consumed the Blazing Pain Pill during the bronze period to train their willpower, they could easily endure the pain from the expansion and consolidation of the Beast Taming Space. But it was almost unbearable for him.

This time, Li Cunxu gritted his teeth and pushed through, even breaking two teeth.

The pain from this incident left a psychological shadow on Li Cunxu, making him reluctant to continue practicing, out of fear because breaking through to Gold from Silver means experiencing even more severe pain.

Li Cunxu was quite certain there was something wrong with his mind and body.

“I need a good rest for a while.”

Li Cunxu broke through to Silver, and Xiaoruan naturally followed to Silver level.

“Xiaoruan needs to learn field skills at the Silver level.”

Li Cunxu searched on Shendu University’s online platform and picked a field skill that perfectly matched Xiaoruan.

Land of Myriad Phenomena.

[Land of Myriad Phenomena]: A lord’s skill, field skill. Within this field, the effect of enhancing all attributes is amplified. Each time a different attribute skill is used, the enhancement effect of the Land of Myriad Phenomena increases by a bit.

The Land of Myriad Phenomena is not only useful for Xiaoruan in battle, but also the White Spider and others can benefit from it, making it a field skill very suitable for team battles.

This field skill also has a hidden effect, increasing the probability of breaking through to the lord level and the probability of comprehending the All Things Domain.

In conclusion, it’s the most suitable field skill for Xiaoruan.

However, Li Cunxu faced a dilemma, not because Shendu University lacked stock; they had plenty.

The issue was redeeming the Land of Myriad Phenomena required three thousand academic credits.

“Should I gather credits to exchange for a Star Spirit first, or should I spend credits to get the Land of Myriad Phenomena for Xiaoruan?”

If I exchange it for Xiaoruan now, what about when the White Spider breaks through to Silver, should I get a field skill then?

And when the Dark Crow breaks through to Silver, should it also get a field skill?

…

At this rate, it will take a very long time to accumulate enough academic credits to exchange for a Star Spirit.

“The Land of Myriad Phenomena is something to enjoy sooner rather than later. Never mind, I’ll exchange it first.”

“As for the Star Spirit…”
