Chapter 108: The Last Draw!(2)
What the hell was that token?
How could it allow someone to obtain such a terrifying improvement in such a short period of time?!
One had to know that the advancement of Trascendent had always been gradual.
Even if he was a genius beyond the imagination of ordinary people, he would definitely reach the top step by step.
This was because in the process of advancement, one needed to constantly consolidate one’s foundation, stabilize one’s extraordinary characteristics, and obtain origin power/energy that matched the extraordinary characteristics.
Any mistake in the middle would cause the future to be cut off.
What was even more terrifying was that he would lose control and become a monster.
This was also one of the reasons why turbid cultivation was easier to lose control.
But now, Zhang Lie had jumped from Tier 4 to Tier 6 under his nose with just a token!
This speed of improvement was even more unreasonable than his game interface!
As Su Mo thought about this, he used Shadow Leap and quickly fled into the distance.
Even if the other party had recovered to its undamaged Tier 4 state, he would definitely not be a match for him now, let alone Tier 6.
That crossbow shaped high-grade magic item could kill him on the spot with three consecutive shots.
After all, the origin power/energy in his body was not endless.
He had just consumed the last Origin Spirit Pill.
In this situation, facing Zhang Lie who had suddenly risen to level 6, there was no other way to deal with him except to escape.
However, Zhang Lie, who was supposed to be chasing after him, seemed to have become a little strange.
Suddenly, bulges appeared on the surface of his skin.
Each bulge was the size of a ping-pong ball.
Just like a game of whack-a-mole, this place disappeared and the other side appeared again.
It felt as if there were countless living things under his skin.
He tore open his chest before, and it no longer bled.
Instead, two rows of teeth grew out, crisscrossing each other.
Seeing this, Su Mo couldn’t help but gasp.
This state was clearly a mutation.
Terrifying improvements were often accompanied by equally terrifying side effects.
The price he had to pay to instantly advance from Tier 4 to Tier 6 was to give up his human form.
It was even more than that!
Just as Su Mo was thinking about this, Zhang Lie, who had been at the end of his line of sight, suddenly appeared in front of him.
His head was right in front of his eyes, and his nose almost touched the tip of his nose.
At such a close distance, he could even see the third eye that suddenly opened in Zhang Lie’s scalp.
It was an eye with only the whites of the eye, and it was filled with a dense layer of egg-like substance.
It was as if his entire head had turned into a hive!
At this moment, Su Mo felt his scalp explode, and his heart skipped a beat.
When he came back to his senses and was about to use Shadow Leap…
“Hehe!”
A burst of laughter suddenly came from Zhang Lie’s chest.
In the next second, Su Mo felt like his entire body was flying.
He crashed into the wall at the end of the tunnel, and his body made a cracking sound as he spat out a mouthful of blood.
Then, she fell limply to the ground.
“.. Is this the power of a Tier 6?”
Su Mo’s head buzzed, and his vision alternated between light and darkness, with colorful spots of light appearing in front of him.
With the protection of a high-grade magic tool, although he was not killed by that slap on the spot, he was not far from death now.
His entire body was heavily injured. At this moment, he couldn’t even move a finger, let alone use his skills.
“The difference between Tier 2 and Tier 6 is too great.”
“This is far from the threshold that can be crossed by a cross-realm challenge.”
“Who would have thought that this guy actually had such a trump card?”
“However, since this trump card has been used, it seems that he won’t be able to live for long.”
“That level of mutation is not something that a supernatural being can withstand.”
“Not to mention that he was originally an evil profession.”
Su Mo looked at the distant Zhang Lie with blurry eyes.
His body was constantly expanding.
His internal organs flowed out from the mouth on his chest, as if they were full of activity. They crawled in all directions and even made a rustling sound.
Seeing this, Su Mo felt like his brain had been damaged.
Otherwise, why would there be such a bizarre and terrifying illusion?
Even if it was a lantern before death, it shouldn’t be like this.
“No, I can’t die in this place!”
“At the very least, I can’t die at the hands of that monster!”
“If this gets out, will I still have my reputation?!”
For some reason, Su Mo felt a strong desire to live.
His desire to live was so strong that it was far stronger than when he was held hostage by Lin Keke.
With a thought, the familiar mysterious starry sky appeared in his vision.
He looked at his lifespan, which was 373.
Compared to the miserable state he was about to die in.
This lifespan was simply a huge irony.
“If I don’t bring you back when I’m alive, I won’t bring you back when I’m dead.”
With a single thought, he continuously tapped the ten links.
lifespan decreasing at a speed visible to the naked eye.
300!
200!
100!
Not enough!
50!
10!
Not enough!
3!
2!
1!
In this moment of life and death, Su Mo did not hesitate to break the 70-point limit.
Fortunately, he managed to maintain a trace of rationality in the end.
He didn’t use the remaining one year of life left on the screen.
After drawing the card, he didn’t even look at the gold profession.
He directly converted them all into experience points.
Combined with the [cultivation EXP book] that he had drawn.
All of them were added to the profession column of [Sword Saint].
In an instant, the last 10% of the progress of the 2nd rank was fully pulled.
[Sword Saint] profession risen to Tier 3!
The moment he broke through, he awakened a new skill.
The extraordinary characteristic of the Sword Saint profession had been further strengthened.
Furthermore, he had obtained a large amount of experience and comprehension.
However, this was not what Su Mo urgently needed.
In the next second, boundless origin power/energy suddenly poured into his body.
Su Mo spat out two mouthfuls of blood.
Without any hesitation, he held on to his consciousness that was about to faint.
He kept releasing [Light of Life].
Streaks of pure white light landed on his body.
The weak life force slowly rose.
The healing and recovery abilities of his body were stimulated to the maximum.
He began to heal the various parts of his body that had been damaged.
Five minutes passed.
Su Mo’s right hand barely moved.
It was this that made him heave a huge sigh of relief.
At this moment, endless exhaustion assaulted him.
It was the sleeping instinct of life.
It was a resting state that would inevitably occur when healing serious injuries.
However, Su Mo gritted his teeth and relied on his strong will to resist this instinct.
“No, I can’t! It was not time to rest yet!”
“The enemy is still by our side. We have to determine Zhang Lie’s condition!”
“Moreover, this is not a place to rest properly! I can’t sleep here!”
Su Mo bit his tongue.
The sharp pain made his temples throb.
After lying on the ground for another three minutes, Su Mo finally managed to recover some strength.
He held onto the wall beside him and struggled to stand up like an old man.
Just this process alone took him a whole minute.
Su Mo stood up, and his body was as weak as a robe that tightly wrapped around his body.
He held onto the wall and moved forward step by step.
Zhang Lie was no longer there.
It was the flesh and organs scattered all over the ground and even the walls.
It felt like every part of Zhang Lie’s body had gained free will.
They wanted to escape. They wanted to leave Zhang Lie. They wanted to obtain the freedom that belonged to them.
And they did.
The result of this was the collapse of Zhang Lie, this humanoid creature.
He no longer had the form of a human, and he no longer had a unified will.
Following his death, the flesh and blood that had gained freedom also quickly disappeared.
What was left behind was such a miserable and terrifying scene.
Su Mo understood the reason behind this.
In the next second, the countless flesh and organs disintegrated and turned into gray smoke.
And within this gray smoke, there were blue particles floating out.
These green particles gathered together and quickly fused into an ancient triangular token.
With a clang, he fell to the ground.
It landed in front of Su Mo.
