Chapter 413: 261: Escape and Pursuit Collide
Cave.
Boundless darkness filled every corner of the cave.
Only the steady and prolonged sound of breathing echoed from time to time.
Dingling—
The phone ringtone suddenly rang.
In this environment, it seemed particularly abrupt.
Immediately after,
Thunder emerged.
The blooming purple light illuminated the inside of the cave.
At the same time, it also revealed the emaciated body of Chen Sheng.
He slowly opened his eyes.
His two pupils were filled with surging thunderbolts.
“Hoo—”
Chen Sheng took a deep breath.
The thunder in his eyes gradually dissipated.
He looked at the phone.
The lit-up screen was displaying Vermilion Bird’s avatar.
[Lone Wolf: (Location sharing)]
[Get away from Holy Sect Religion’s Base and meet up with me here!!!]
At the end of the message, Vermilion Bird added three exclamation marks.
As if afraid that Chen Sheng might not feel the importance of this message.
Two days ago,
Chen Sheng had sent a message to Vermilion Bird to inquire about the situation.
The other party’s response was simply for Chen Sheng to prepare himself.
What specifically he needed to prepare for, Vermilion Bird did not say.
In Chen Sheng’s view,
there was an 80% chance that there was already movement on the side of the Respected Elder.
He feared that it wouldn’t be long before terror would befall Li Wuji’s side.
Therefore,
During these two days, apart from absorbing spiritual power,
he spent all his remaining time at the withered state and kept his attribute growth rate maximized.
Meanwhile,
relying on his increasingly powerful spiritual power,
Chen Sheng successfully completed the transformation of his nerves against the rejection of thunder.
What made him overjoyed was,
after completing the transformation of nerves, even if his spiritual power could not reach the cellular level now,
the improvement effect of agility attribute was unexpectedly completed for the most part.
Originally, Chen Sheng thought that he needed to complete the final nerves and cells among the six parts of the body composition to raise the increase of the agility attribute to this level.
But now it seems,
which the cellular level involves, may be a deeper level of things.
With Chen Sheng’s current spiritual power, it would still be too early to transform, and he could only temporarily put it aside.
But even so,
after two days,
Chen Sheng’s strength had made considerable progress.
He summoned the panel.
[Chen Sheng]
[Strength: 5270]
[Agility: 4546]
[Constitution: 4851]
[Soul: 17.2]
[Skill Points: 6693]
The growth of spiritual power was not significant, only 5 points.
However, Chen Sheng’s strength attribute had completely crossed the 5,000-point mark.
The other two attributes had also made tremendous progress.
Over the course of these two days, the number of skill points has directly increased by more than 3,000.
At this rate,
Chen Sheng estimated that he would be able to upgrade Thunder Breath again within a week, master 40% of the Thunder Authority, and undergo another transformation.
As for the upgrade of the secret skills, it required the soul power to meet the standard.
As it didn’t require many skill points,
Chen Sheng temporarily ignored it.
According to his preliminary estimates,
now, he,
even without activating Xuanwu Transformation, with the support of Withering and Flourishing Scripture and Authority, could achieve a strength attribute of around 40,000 points.
This was roughly the same as his attribute when he activated Xuanwu Transformation a week ago.
After activating Xuanwu Transformation, his three attributes could reach nearly 400,000.
This number alone would make the panel look somewhat crowded.
As for how it would truly perform… Chen Sheng had not yet tested it.
He did hope, however, to have the opportunity to do so tonight.
Chen Sheng looked down again.
He clicked on the address shared by Vermilion Bird.
According to the navigation app, Vermilion Bird was now at the junction of two provinces.
About 1,000 kilometers away from the Holy Sect Religion’s Base.
At this distance,
it wouldn’t take long for Chen Sheng with his current capabilities.
He planned to meet up with Vermilion Bird first, ask for more details, and then decide on other matters.
Although his strength had greatly increased,
Chen Sheng did not become so arrogant as to believe that he was already unrivaled under heaven.
Although he had a Golden Finger,
what if others had it too?
Chen Sheng recalled the fantasy novels he had read.
No matter how powerful the master’s strength was or how fast his progress,
there would always be people with similar levels of strength, or even far superior ones.
Chen Sheng did not think he was the protagonist.
He did not want to put himself in a life-threatening situation.
The feeling of helplessness he had when facing the Respected Elder in the Sealed Land,
Chen Sheng did not want to experience it for the second time.
Therefore,
if there was a safer path to take,
Chen Sheng wouldn’t mind admitting defeat.
When it was time to take action,
he would decide whether to crush the enemy to death or turn and run.
With those thoughts,
Chen Sheng slowly stood up.
The large black robe covered his emaciated body.
Due to his height shrinking,
nearly half of the black robe hung on the ground.
But Chen Sheng did not mind.
He walked slowly towards the cave entrance.
Crack…Crack!
As he walked,
the sound of grinding teeth echoed from beneath the black robe.
It was the sound of muscle growth and bone friction.
The originally shriveled and shrunken skin gradually regained its elasticity under the support of the expanding muscles.
The once-oversized black robe was stretched little by little.
In the blink of an eye,
Chen Sheng had returned to his peak state.
Since his strength had reached a certain level,
he could now control the size of his body as he wished.
Now, his ever-moving height was only about one point eight meters.
Muscles like alloy steel were evenly distributed on his body.
While looking incredibly powerful, they did not look bloated.
No one could see,
the horrifying power hidden beneath this body.
