Chapter 55: Chapter 54: The Spirit Realm Seems Overprotected and Weak

Accompanied by violent struggles, Yin Shuo revealed his ugly true form, a twisted, goblin-like small body draped in dark red skin, far more unsightly than his usual human form, which could be the reason he retained his human shape during battles.

A pitch-black, iron-clad fist charged with the sound of cutting through the air.

“Boom!!”

The entire abandoned building trembled madly, emitting a precarious wail as countless debris fell from high above, crashing to the ground, splashing muddy waves in the puddles.

Suddenly, the other four still action-capable S-Level Red Hermits were aghast; a terrifying chill surged from their tailbones straight to the top of their heads.

The one who reacted first was the S-Level Red Hermit directly fishing for the Silver Princess, who immediately abandoned sparring with her, fiercely clawed at himself with dark red claws, grasped, took out a burning core instantly.

Biting down, throwing the core away, enduring the weakness surging from his body, he fled at the fastest speed, without a moment’s hesitation.

….

The day broke.

The abandoned building completely turned into ruins, rubble and steel strewn everywhere, soaked with the blood of countless Red Hermits, a howling bloody wind swept through like the end of the world had come.

A three-meter-tall giant sat atop the ruins, with a blood spear skewering the bodies of five S-Level Red Hermits like a kebab, their limbs severed, incapable of struggle or resistance.

Furthermore, after a period of research, Ye Mingqiu discovered that S-Level Red Hermits aren’t entirely Undying; by completely grinding down their bodies 77 times, one could reach the limit of their recovery, thus unraveling the Undying nature of the Red Hermits… this should count as useful information, right?

“Monster.”

Silver Princess observed the giant from afar, suddenly feeling that the S-Level Red Hermits, seen as monsters by humans, weren’t that terrifying; compared to this Tyrant, they seemed as cute as pets.

Next moment, Ye Mingqiu’s body moved; he stood up slowly, his form rapidly shrinking back to its original shape, severely damaged heavy armor hung on him as if it might fall apart any moment, no need to check details to guess the equipment’s Durability was nearly depleted.

But Ye Mingqiu didn’t care; he reached for the blood spear, the Blood Crystal Patterns aligned with his arm, seemingly becoming one entity, pure bloody energy surged from the spear, flowing through the Blood Crystal Patterns into his body.

[Hint: The blood spear has returned to you pure Life Energy, your Life Limit+380]

Life: 1284

“Ah~”

Ye Mingqiu made a satisfied sound, feeling the powerful force surging within, his smile growing deeper as he looked at the S-Level Red Hermits turned to black stone statues, pulling out the blood spear.

The blood spear is definitely not an Ordinary silver weapon; its growth and recoil traits are stronger than gold or even Dark Gold Level Equipment.

It’s hard to imagine, its predecessor was just an Ordinary Bronze Battle Spear, with no special Attribute, simply having experienced the battlefield and fused with Blood Crystal Stone, it evolved to such a form.

The weapon Traits of the blood spear include Blood Crystal Divine Power and Life Source Power, indicating that the Blood Crystal Stone itself is an extremely rare item. With the fall of Chaoge’s world, the existence of Gods, Dominators, the Blood Crystal Stone is most likely rare minerals used by Gods or Dominators.

Looking at it this way, for me to obtain four Blood Crystal Stones from opening treasure chests… seems quite lucky, doesn’t it?

After all, on the battlefield, I’ve only killed Ordinary soldiers, at most War Generals, with a colossal gap compared to the Divinity Tyrant Level beings. Yet, four Blood Crystal Stones were exploded from such treasure chests.

I really do seem very lucky?

Ye Mingqiu chuckled, instinctively glancing at his Talent Panel; each time his Attributes increased, he would unconsciously check the Talent Panel, after all, having more Talents has always been his core advantage, without Talents, he couldn’t possibly receive a Legendary Profession.

And now, with his Life Limit reaching 1284, the originally dim plus sign suddenly lit up again, indicating he could continue to add new Talents.

I understand now!

Life is the core!

With more Life Force, I can gain more Talents. To gain Life Force, I must let the blood spear receive more high-quality blood, like the Boiling Blood and Source Blood of Red Hermits.

I must keep fighting!

B: Self-Awakening, Active Skills, can actively break free from Spiritual Control type Skills.

C: Basic Spirit, Passive Skills, enhances body aptitude, spiritual potential, each point of Spirit will have a higher Enhancement Effect.

“Choose C.”

Ye Mingqiu quickly made a decision, Option A is garbage, things like this are useless in the early stage, also useless in the later stage; it’s completely unnecessary when dealing with non-Dominator, Monarch Level units, and it occupies a Universal Skill Slot, not needed in the later stage.

Option B is even worse garbage, with [Divine Valor] and [Undying Tyrant] and [Tyrant Form] threefold Abnormal Status Resistance and Control Resistance bonuses, to date, he’s never been controlled.

Since I’m never going to be controlled, why learn a Decoupling Skill? Waste a Skill Slot?
