Gun Kai
Chapter 614 Vitality Two
Li Cheng颐 plunged downwards, feeling as if he were sliding through an extremely narrow pipe.
The surrounding pressure was immense, causing the pipe to thicken and thin intermittently.
The solidified black sea around him had long since blurred into streaks of color, rushing past.
Time lost its meaning here. Before long, there was a sudden tremor ahead, and the entire pipe seemed to disintegrate, rapidly expanding and shattering.
Li Cheng颐 burst out from within.
The surroundings were no longer the solidified, static black sea, but the lowest level of the black sea he had entered through the crack.
There weren't many blind spots around. In the dark and empty void, only a few blind spots floated and rotated, none of them spherical, but all kinds of strange shapes.
Li Cheng颐 vaguely felt that he had left the solidified space-time near Silent Extinction City, and time in the black sea began to flow again.
He pondered for a moment, then focused his gaze on the other blind spots nearby.
The head was somewhat oval, with two pointed ears, and black, shiny eyes that conveyed a pure sense of bewilderment.
With the aid of Flower Language abilities, he could indeed alleviate some of the pressure, but it wasn't enough, not nearly enough. He needed a world with a higher compatibility to help him reach the apex.
The tree holes on it were like dark eyes, watching all uninvited guests who tried to approach.
*Poof.*
In a world where transcendence was impossible, becoming a squirrel was the result of good luck forcefully twisting and blessing him.
"A SQUIRREL?!"
Li Cheng颐 thought he must be dreaming, and he carefully scanned it again with his mental power.
A squirrel that was weak, concussed, with faint traces of blood on its forehead.
"Let's try it out first."
In a dense, gloomy jungle.
He began to approach each blind spot, searching.
*Pfft!*
The gray squirrel slowly crawled out of the tree hole, hanging on the tree trunk with its limbs, shaking its head, trying to shake off the dizziness in its head.
As soon as he left the solidified space-time of the Silent Extinction City, he was immediately caught.
The aura of several people was transmitted from the Flower God General system, and it was even stronger. He no longer worried and rushed towards the huge blind spot.
Li Cheng颐 glanced at the Evil Flower mark and sensed the general condition of the others, confirming that there were no major problems.
At this critical moment, Li Cheng颐, greatly shocked, struggled to press his hand on the Evil Flower and activate Flower Language.
Li Cheng颐 never expected that at such a crucial moment, he would be forcibly pulled away by a blind spot again.
He didn't know how much time had passed.
The size of this blind spot was the largest he had ever seen in his life. Roughly estimated, it was almost hundreds of times larger than the Mo Sha blind spot back then, and even more exaggerated than his master Tian Xuanzi's true form.
Suddenly, a gray animal head popped out of a tree hole in the middle.
The vast mental power in his mind instantly radiated throughout his entire body. This scan immediately frightened him.
Or rather, he guessed that the blind spot should have pulled him away long ago, but because he was in the Silent Extinction City, it was unable to do so.
A brown oak tree stretched its huge branches in the wind, making rustling sounds.
'Where am I?'
He really wanted to curse, but the sound coming from his mouth was just a squeak.
Just then.
All the accumulated times of 'Good Luck +2' disappeared and were used up in this moment.
Proving the Dao of the Saintly Seat was a major event. He chose Eternal Vitality and needed to find an environment suitable for its development and growth as much as possible.
Li Cheng颐 frowned tightly. Looking at it this way, without super-fast recovery ability, cultivating Eternal Vitality was simply a death sentence.
But he was pulled by the blind spot and forcibly pulled to the bottom of the black sea, forming a certain death situation.
'It seems that I must carefully screen. How can I meet the cultivation conditions of Eternal Vitality and successfully prove the Dao of the Saintly Seat?'
This time, he clearly saw that his current body was indeed a squirrel.
Suddenly, Li Cheng颐 paused and stopped in front of a huge gray-white spherical blind spot.
The immense traction force was also forcibly distorted under the influence of this strange and mysterious good luck power, and shot away in another direction.
'Eternal Vitality is an extremely powerful physical enhancement system. The side effects recorded in the Forbidden Knowledge are extremely large, and in the bottom world, extraordinary abilities are greatly restricted.'
Just as his master said, as soon as he got close to the blind spot, something went wrong.
'It's just... what's going on now!?'
Before Li Cheng颐 even entered the surface of the blind spot, he flashed silently and disappeared from the spot.
Most importantly, within this blind spot, he could clearly sense that there were a large number of enhancement materials needed for Eternal Vitality.
Suddenly, a huge traction force pulled over from the air, covering him.
"I..."
It was the head of a gray squirrel.
He couldn't imagine what state he would have been in if he hadn't had good luck.
A bacterium? Or a paramecium??
'A squirrel's body cannot withstand the enhancement of Eternal Vitality. How can I do this!?'
Li Cheng颐 was completely helpless.
This body couldn't even beat a small child. In this bottom world with great restrictions, a squirrel's lifespan was only four to fifteen years at most.
What could he do in that time??
Under these circumstances, he couldn't leave his body at all. The world's restrictions seemed to be even stronger than last time.
Li Cheng颐 felt that as long as he dared to leave, his pure Divine Fire consciousness would not survive for more than three seconds here and would be instantly annihilated and decomposed.
This was not only aimed at him, but also at all transcendent beings who came here.
'This is troublesome.'
Li Cheng颐 stood at the entrance of the tree hole, looking around. Everywhere he looked, there were dense forests, protruding tree roots, and thick, carpet-like fallen leaves on the ground.
Birds and insects were everywhere, and there were also many small animals and snakes at a glance.
He took a breath and turned back to the tree hole.
Inside the hole was a small nest arranged by the previous squirrel. It was filled with pine cones and dry leaves, which was very warm.
Li Cheng颐 tried the Wisdom Sword and Love Threads, but they couldn't penetrate his body. The Flower Language was even more restricted. The brilliance of a full release was just a little bit of light that couldn't be seen clearly, flashing and disappearing.
Lying on his back in the tree hole, he began to think about how to break the situation.
In the last world, there were at least mages, and the consciousness Divine Fire could also leave the body.
But here, the restrictions were even greater, almost a purely material world.
'Wait.' Suddenly, a thought flashed in his mind. Eternal Vitality itself didn't seem to be a system extended from the transcendent world!
The original Eternal Vitality was an accidental biochemical chain reaction that occurred in the body of a bull.
It was just that the reaction was too fast and was captured by the omniscient elders of the sect, who then used it as a guide to perfect a set of Forbidden Knowledge.
'Could this be the chance of survival blessed by my good luck!?' Li Cheng颐's heart suddenly skipped a beat.
His expression changed slightly, and his two small black eyes flickered with the light of wisdom.
"Little Gray, Little Gray?"
Suddenly, a squirrel with yellow fur all over its body drilled into his tree hole, staring at him upside down.
"I'm going to the pine tree in the east to pick some pine cones, do you want to go?"
"..." Li Cheng颐 looked at its innocent eyes, and the memories belonging to this body quickly flooded into his mind.
This was his good friend, Huang Mao A Shou (Yellow Fur Skinny), who lived nearby. The two squirrels always acted together, and the pine cones in the tree hole were collected together with his help.
"That human will be here in a while, if we don't go, we may not have time." Huang Mao A Shou continued.
The language of squirrels was all squeaks, but the rhythm and tone allowed Li Cheng颐 to naturally understand what the other party meant.
"No need, I don't want to eat pine cones anymore." Li Cheng颐 thought for a while and replied.
What was important to him now was to first find the materials needed for Eternal Vitality, and then find a way to resist its huge side effects.
Otherwise, in a world with such great restrictions, he wouldn't even be able to fly. Once the fifteen-year lifespan limit was reached, he might have to die here alive!
"Pine cones are so delicious, why don't you go?" Huang Mao asked in confusion.
"I'm tired of eating them." Li Cheng颐 thought, while casually perfunctorily answering the other party.
"But if we go again, the human will come in a while, and there won't be time." Huang Mao continued.
"I don't want to eat pine cones." Li Cheng颐 said again.
"Pine cones are so delicious, why don't you go?" Huang Mao asked again in confusion.
"..." Li Cheng颐 understood that the other party had intelligence, but not much.
He pushed the other party's head away, walked out of the tree hole, and a large amount of Eternal Vitality knowledge kept flashing in his mind.
The knowledge of this entire system was complete. According to the Yin Canon system, it could also be divided into corresponding stages.
1. Strengthening and Enhancement.
2. Sublimation, Condensation, and Imprint.
3. Massive Sublimation, Condensing ninety-nine identical Imprints.
4. Imprint Fusion, Further Enhancing Physical Constitution and Vitality.
5. Repeat the above process. Fuse again.
The five stages were all simple, but the huge side effects made this system extremely dangerous. All the geniuses who chose it before failed in the third step.
Li Cheng颐 climbed the tree trunk flexibly for a while, adapting to the agility of this body, and then began to carefully look for the first strengthening material needed.
Although this body was just a squirrel, Forbidden Knowledge was a knowledge system, and it was flexible knowledge that could be used to design enhancement plans based on the state of the body.
So it didn't prevent him from starting to cultivate.
He climbed down the tree trunk, and a black-scaled python suddenly rushed out from the leaves, biting at him.
Although Li Cheng颐's strength was restricted, his reaction, supported by mental power, was more than twice as strong.
He suddenly leaned to the side, avoiding the python's pounce, and stabbed upwards with his right claw.
The python's pouncing force heavily scratched his claws, and a thin blood line was immediately cut open on its white belly.
*Hiss!*
The python was in severe pain, and its abdominal organs were almost flowing out. It rolled to the side, writhing in pain.
Li Cheng颐's expression remained unchanged, and he continued to patrol the surrounding territory.
Huang Mao A Shou followed him from behind. Seeing this scene, his body instantly stiffened, and he was too frightened to follow.
"Aren't you going to get pine cones? Lead the way." Li Cheng颐 turned his head and said in a deep voice.
"..." A Shou swallowed and glanced at the python that was still struggling, and quickly followed.
"Little Gray... how, suddenly so powerful!?" He couldn't help but ask.
"Has my strength increased?"
"No."
"Is my speed faster?"
"No..." A Shou replied.
"Then why is he dying, and I am unharmed?" Li Cheng颐 asked.
"I don't know..." A Shou shook his head.
"Because of chance." Li Cheng颐 said lightly, "I just swung my claws at the right time, at the right moment. Everything was already destined."
"Chance...?" A Shou didn't understand.
"Let's go, lead the way first." Li Cheng颐 didn't want to continue staying in such a weak state.
He wanted to patrol the surrounding area and start strengthening this body at the fastest speed.
