Chapter 469: Chapter 262: Super Fusion, Resource Point! (Part 2)
"Boss. The Human-faced Spider possesses a relatively high level of intelligence among its follower species.
So their ’self’ is clearer, with a greater potential for corruption."
The soft, sweet voice of Ye Xiaotang appeared in Qin Shi’s Sea of Consciousness.
Under the effect of the spiritual link, even in contaminated areas, there would be no errors in communication.
"So that’s how it is."
Qin Shi suddenly threw, and the Perfect Level Electric Shock Saber turned into a stream of light!
Pulo’s face, once as tough as marble, was now covered with jet-black lines, like spider limbs growing on the skin.
His gaze was no longer cold; it turned cruel and bloodthirsty, as if some kind of animal instinct awakened within him.
He slightly tilted his head, calmly avoiding the blade light as fast as lightning.
But when Pulo turned his head back, Qin Shi had already leapt into the air, like a flickering shadow, directly pouncing in front of him.
An arm wrapped in a platinum glow raised, the terrifying power crushing the space, cracks rapidly spreading.
Layer upon layer of airwaves exploded; in less than a fraction of a second, that fist struck Pulo’s head!
Bang!
A scarlet surge!
The whole head burst like a watermelon hit by a bullet!
Turbid liquid splattered, a fountain of blood gushing forth!
"An elite monster of the second stage, and I can kill it in one hit?"
Qin Shi raised an eyebrow, seemingly not expecting to explode Pulo’s head with just one punch so easily.
He had yet to retrieve the Perfect Level Electric Shock Saber embedded in the wall behind, when the sound of growth rustled into his ears.
A great warning surfaced in his heart. Qin Shi was about to dodge when that force swept like a tornado, covering his mortal body entirely!
He saw headless Pulo opening his arms, seizing Qin Shi!
It was as if losing a head had no effect on him.
Drip drip!
Thick blood stained Qin Shi’s mortal body, and once again, he felt the weakening sensation of his life force being stripped away layer by layer.
More intense and clearer than before!
The withering trait fully unfolded!
If a health bar was displayed above Qin Shi’s head, this time his health drain speed far exceeded the strong corrosion faced with Tia.
Even with a long health bar of six digits, it wouldn’t withstand a thousand-point reduction per second!
"Truly troublesome!"
Qin Shi’s arms were seized, difficult to break free.
His originally surging life force suddenly became stagnant, a dead water unable to regain its vigorous momentum.
He took a deep breath, a tenfold amplification burst out, violently shaking the limits, blasting Pulo’s follower body to pieces, yet he still struggled to break free.
His arms clamped like pincers, determined to weaken Qin Shi’s life force to its lowest point!
"Heh heh..."
A bloodthirsty, sinister fluctuation echoed in the room, that was Pulo’s spiritual will.
For a Spiritual Ability User, the physical shell is not vital to life and death, as long as the spirit remains, there’s always a chance for recovery.
"How long can you endure? I’m eager to see you utterly lose power and become an ordinary person!"
Pulo’s malice-filled spiritual fluctuations enveloped Qin Shi like wind and snow.
The latter suddenly understood, this guy had long abandoned his physical body!
No wonder no matter how much damage I inflicted on the body, the opponent had no reaction!
"Intentionally using the body as bait, luring me in... The Human-faced Spider is indeed the most intelligent follower."
Qin Shi coldly smiled, his Sea of Consciousness stirred, responding with spiritual fluctuations——
"Too bad you don’t know how fast a genius can progress."
Before leaving the outpost base, Qin Shi’s amplification trait was tenfold, but after slaying Pompey, Tia, and even that unknown creature just now.
The ’experience’ they provided continuously pleased the [Celestial Being].
Plus the supplies from the Cowhorse Squad, keeping Qin Shi’s state always at its peak and constantly enhancing.
Therefore——
Upon entering the administrative building, Qin Shi’s domain trait had been further nourished by life brilliance and energy factors.
Achieved another growth!
"Fifteenfold amplification!"
Qin Shi’s eyes shone like stars, like two blazing suns, extremely intense, domineering, and confident!
The crystalline stage’s every inch of flesh and blood released tangible life force, streaming like a fierce flame!
The body clamping down on Qin Shi melted like a candle!
The powerful, domineering, pure life force forcibly dissolved Pulo’s flesh!
Like an ingot of iron falling into a steel furnace, flesh disintegrated, matter evaporated!
Qin Shi shook his shoulders, easily breaking free from Pulo’s grip.
"Do you have any other tricks left to use?"
Under the fifteen-fold amplification, Qin Shi’s stats soared to an extremely terrifying level, to the point where even he had difficulty controlling his power.
The mortal body beneath the robe showed a glaze-like sheen, like a perfect statue crafted by skilled hands, emitting a radiant gloss under the sunlight.
Inhale!
Exhale!
The mighty breath, like a storm sweeping through, left the spacious room in complete disarray.
Qin Shi’s substantial mass seemed like a planetary body, bending and shattering the space around it.
"You..."
Pulo, having abandoned his mortal body, transformed into a spiritual body, like a thin beam of light flickering in the void, avoiding the searing and boiling life force.
"Trying to escape? Can you escape?"
The platinum light was almost tangible, and Qin Shi could feel it; under the fifteen-fold amplification, his mortal body seemed to be burning.
"Burning my health bar to gain power, huh. Luckily, my health bar is quite thick."
Qin Shi’s mouth tugged into a smirk, understanding that this was his own failure to perfectly match his overmodelled stats.
"Heh heh... Heh heh... Di Ka has already noticed you! You arrogant human, dare to intrude into the nest! It’s as good as courting death!"
Pulo’s spiritual body appeared and disappeared, like a flashlight being turned on and off, making it impossible for Qin Shi to firmly capture its position.
"Think I can’t handle you?"
The sea of consciousness within Qin Shi surged with waves, the life magnetic field acted like a radar, indeed detecting a rapidly approaching high-risk target marked in red.
His gaze was cold, arms spread wide, and his domain unfolded!
Pure power rose up like ancient beacon smoke, straight up like a pillar, breaking through layers of ceilings!
"I’ve crossed both martial arts and spiritual ability paths, how could I not grasp you!"
Qin Shi, in the third stage, displayed an almost arrogant, strongest posture.
His palm pressed forward, and space collapsed inch by inch, like a shack run over by a bulldozer!
All directions, fully covered!
Pulo’s spiritual body felt as if there was nowhere to hide, nowhere to escape, the surrounding space seemed locked!
As the platinum light grew more solid, winding around interlaced veins and glaze muscles.
Qin Shi’s arm, like a flame radiating light, broke the boundary between reality and illusion, tightly grasping Pulo in its palm under the terrified gaze!
Sizzle sizzle!
Like blue smoke rising, Pulo’s spiritual body seemed to sizzle like a slice of meat pressed against a hot iron plate!
Spiritual fluctuation shook violently, and spiritual telekinesis instantly evaporated by more than half!
To a spiritual ability user, attacks of this level are more painful than physical injuries.
Almost like torture, a fate worse than death!
"Die."
Qin Shi’s five fingers tightened, the platinum light swirling around his body.
Flesh and spirit meditation combined, burning away the twisting, malformed spiritual body in his grasp until nothing remained!
Immediately, Qin Shi wasted no time, stamping his feet, shattering the floor beneath him.
Using the recoil force, he shot like an arrow towards the resource point marked in "bright red."
Swoosh!
From start to finish, only three minutes had passed!
Qin Shi leaped layer by layer, swiftly crossing the distance of over ten floors, stepping into the spacious room that seemed to be a chief executive’s office.
Perhaps due to proximity, the long-dormant monument panel shook, like an uncovered jade, revealing its crystal clarity.
"Is this evolution? No, it’s more like fusion."
Qin Shi focused inward, observing the anomaly of the monument panel.
He found numerous achievements originally activated, each varying milestone, shattering one by one.
Only the legendary[Steel of the Heart]remained untouched.
The rest, like[Muscle Memory],[Overgrowth],[Extra-Sensory Perception],[Working Warrior]...
All achievements turned gray, pitch black, as if falling into a void.
"Is this considered a panel upgrade?"
Qin Shi looked toward the resource point, a dark portal placed in the room.
It stood there in the center, seemingly waiting to be opened and entered.
"This is the highest value ’resource’ of the Human-faced Spider’s nest."
Qin Shi wondered why such a strategic location was unguarded, while suppressing the intense urge inside him, gradually approaching.
With each step he took, the change in the monument panel became more intense.
"Let’s hope the Judicial Court’s ’talisman’ really works.
If they prove unreliable, I can only hope for the four lords to manifest."
Qin Shi’s thoughts spread, his hand grasping the door handle, twisting it open lightly.
...
...
"Report to the high priest, the intruder has entered the nest!"
