Undying Demon Soul Buddha Body

"Let's talk about something practical?" The monks present looked at each other, initially quite happy about killing the Saint Buddha, and the atmosphere had been quite lively. However, Xu Bai's next words left them all somewhat bewildered.

What do you mean by talking about reality? How did it suddenly turn into talking about reality?

Just now everyone was fine, still reveling in the joy of the destruction of the Saint Buddha, why are we talking about reality now? Xu Bai looked around, this is not the place to talk.

He gave a wink and walked toward the main hall.

The group exchanged glances and then headed towards the main hall of the Vajra Temple.

Wu Hua was carried into the main hall by several disciples of the Vajra Temple. The main hall was not that big, so only a group of important Buddhists monks entered, including the abbots of the Ten Great Temples.

"King Xu, you just said you wanted to talk about something practical. What do we want to talk about? Is there something important that we haven't discussed yet?" The abbot of Yanfa Temple was the first to ask.

In their minds, there must be something more important that hasn't been resolved yet; otherwise, Xu Bai wouldn't have solemnly said that they would only talk about it in the main hall. And judging from this, the matter is definitely very serious.

Upon hearing this, Xu Bai coughed, found a seat, and tapped the armrest of the chair lightly with his hand. "It's nothing important, it's just that the reward should be something."

After he finished speaking, the entire room fell silent.

Those present were all Buddhists monks, but what Xu Bai was saying left them speechless for a moment, though they quickly came to understand.

After all, Xu Bai was known in the martial arts world as someone who loved doing business and adhered to business principles.

The abbot of Vajra Temple knew Xu Bai best, having often heard Wu Hua mention Xu Bai, and thus had a general impression of him. So when Xu Bai said those words, he nodded in agreement without hesitation.

"It's only right. King Xu has helped the Buddhists solve a huge problem. A small reward is nothing at all. May I ask what you need?"

The goodwill from the Buddhists is one thing, and the more practical rewards are another. The two should not be confused, so do what needs to be done.

When the abbot of Vajra Temple spoke, the monks exchanged glances and nodded in agreement, indicating that there was absolutely no problem.

Xu Bai had expected to have to spend a lot of time explaining, but he didn't expect these monks to be so understanding. He didn't say much, and pointed to the first-grade puppet next to him, about to say something, when his movements suddenly froze.

On the first-rank puppet, there are also nine books left behind by the ten abbots, each with a golden progress bar. Xu Bai plans to slowly grind through them later.

But now, as he looked over, the golden progress bar was gone.

His original plan was to take this opportunity to gain a lot of progress bars from Buddhists in order to improve his own strength.

But now it seems like something big has happened.

Xu Bai quickly came to his senses, took a few steps forward, picked up the book from the first-grade puppet's hand, and carefully flipped through it.

Next, he was absolutely certain that the progress bar was gone.

"Everything was fine this morning, how could it suddenly be gone?"

Xu Bai felt incredulous; he couldn't accept it. He subconsciously turned his head to look at the abbot of the Vajra Temple beside him and asked, "After the Saint Buddha died, are his legacies no longer useful?"

The only point of doubt is this: Xu Bai wondered if the disappearance of all the progress bars was due to the death of the Saint Buddha.

Besides that, he couldn't figure out what else could cause the progress bar to suddenly disappear.

When Xu Bai asked this question, everyone present looked at each other in surprise, but the abbot of Vajra Temple quickly gave an answer.

"Yes."

"The lineage of Buddhists all originated from the Saint Buddha. Now that the Saint Buddha has died, everything has vanished. Only what we have learned is still preserved, but we will not be able to continue learning from here on out."

As he spoke, the abbot of Vajra Temple gave Xu Bai an analogy, seemingly trying to help Xu Bai understand more thoroughly.

Xu Bai was speechless. After listening to what the abbot of Vajra Temple had to say, he finally understood.

With the passing of the Saint Buddha, the lineage also disappears. What you learned before can still be used, but going further is almost impossible.

Xu Bai tried using the Vajra Saint Demon Exemption Suppression Body, and it was still usable, but the progress bar he had seen earlier had indeed disappeared.

In other words, it seems like he suffered a huge loss this time. If he had finished grinding those nine progress bars and then died, Saint Buddha would still have made a profit. But now it seems like he really lost out.

Loss! Huge loss!

Seeing that Xu Bai's expression was not right, the abbot of Vajra Temple asked with concern, "Your King Xu, is there some hidden ailment? You must tell us as soon as possible. Although we have lost our lineage, our strength is still there."

The monks all nodded, looking at Xu Bai Xu Bai with concern, afraid that something might happen to him.

After all, this is a hero who saved the entire Buddhists. We must not let anything happen to him, otherwise we will be ashamed of Xu Bai.

"It's nothing." Xu Bai waved his hand with a gloomy expression, indicating that he was fine. He suddenly thought of something and continued to ask, "In that case, it seems that the Buddhists lineage is about to be cut off."

Upon closer reflection, it is indeed true. With the legacy of the Saint Buddha gone, Buddhists practitioners throughout the world can only preserve their existing strength.

But it's impossible for them to make any further progress, because there's no legacy for them to use.

Upon hearing this, the abbot of Vajra Temple nodded, directly acknowledging the issue without avoiding it.

"Indeed, as King Xu said, we may not be able to make any progress, but that is not absolute."

"After we can't make any progress on an old road, we can find a brand new one."

"The result of taking a different path may lead to the decline of Buddhists, or it may lead to a brighter future."

"Oh?" Xu Bai became interested. "How do we forge a new path?"

The abbot of Vajra Temple pointed to Wu Hua, who was sleeping soundly to the side, and said with a smile, "Wu Hua is it."

"Now, he has received all the Buddha's light present during the battle just now."

"He couldn't withstand the Buddha's light, but it gathered on the Black Lotus."

"The Black Lotus will transform; sooner or later, it will be able to transform into a new path belonging to Buddhists."

Xu Bai looked in the direction the abbot of Vajra Temple pointed and saw Wu Hua lying to the side still unconscious, while the Black Lotus was still slowly swirling above Wu Hua's head.

Black hair, black robe, Black Lotus —this strange sense of déjà vu from a TV series from his past life gave Xu Bai a feeling that everything was mixed together.

As Xu Bai looked at Wu Hua, Wu Hua, who had been in a coma, finally woke up from her slumber.

Wu Hua slowly opened his eyes and weakly sat up from his lying position. When he felt the gazes around him, he understood what had happened.

"Are you alright?"

As he asked the question, the Black Lotus hovering above his head spun even faster.

Wu Hua raised his hand, and the Black Lotus above his head obediently landed in his palm.

The black light began to sharpen and gradually bloom.

"Master, I can't, I can't fully explore a new path. At most, I can only reach... the extraordinary." Wu Hua closed his eyes, sensed for a moment, then opened them again, his face full of pain.

The abbot of Vajra Temple said, "It's alright, it's because your strength hasn't reached that level yet."

"The stronger you are, the more you will feel it, and the wider your future path will be."

"Even if it's just the extraordinary level, it's already quite good for the world. After all, old guys like us don't need any further cultivation methods for the time being."

Wu Hua nodded in relief after hearing the Vajra Temple's words of comfort.

Just as he was about to continue speaking, he felt a tap on his shoulder. Turning around, he saw Xu Bai pressing down on him with bright eyes, staring at the Black Lotus in his hand.

"Benefactor Xu, what is this..." Wu Hua felt uncomfortable under Xu Bai's gaze and wanted to retreat silently.

Xu Bai smiled and said, "Good brother, let me use Black Lotus."

Wu Hua: "..."

Everyone: "..."

It's not surprising that Xu Bai reacted this way, because the moment Wu Hua woke up and placed the Black Lotus in his hand, Xu Bai noticed a golden progress bar on the Black Lotus.

Moreover, this progress bar is very slow; it's the slowest progress bar he's ever seen.

Slow means good.

Fast means bad.

At least on the progress bar, that's the standard.

Oh, and there are some special occasions where speed can also represent good or bad, but that's not what Xu Bai cares about.

What seems like a misfortune may actually be a blessing in disguise.

I just lost nine progress bars, and now I'm giving him an infuriatingly slow progress bar.

What do you call this? You call it "a new vista opening up after a long and winding road".

Xu Bai had to get it, and he felt that given his current situation, getting it would be quite easy.

Wu Hua realized what was happening and said helplessly, "This humble monk thought it was something else, but it turns out it's this matter. If Benefactor Xu wants to take it, just take it. You are a benefactor of our Buddhists."

As she spoke, Wu Hua handed over the Black Lotus in her hand.

After he made this move, no one stopped him, no one objected, and everyone present even tacitly approved of it.

Is Black Lotus important? Yes, it is very important.

It concerns the future life and death and continuation of Buddhists; it would be a lie to say it's unimportant.

But Xu Bai wants this Black Lotus, will they give it to him?

They absolutely must give it to him! Let alone the Black Lotus, even if he asked the entire Buddhists to do something that would send him to his death, the monks present wouldn't even flinch.

What a joke! The benefactor of the entire Buddhists is here. All they want to do is take a look at this Black Lotus. Just a look? Are you going to refuse? Of course, you must give it to them.

Xu Bai hadn't expected it to be so simple. He took the Black Lotus from his hand and examined it closely.

But after he received it, the progress bar on the Black Lotus disappeared.

"Huh?" Xu Bai frowned.

The progress bar was working fine just now, how come it disappeared as soon as it got to him? That doesn't make sense.

He had a guess, suspecting that it might not be related to the Black Lotus, but rather to Wu Hua. With that in mind, he decided to give it a try and handed the Black Lotus to Wu Hua again.

Wu Hua also found it strange that a Black Lotus was being passed around, but since Xu Bai had already made the gesture, he didn't think much of it and subconsciously took it.

When the Black Lotus fell into Wu Hua's hands, Xu Bai saw the golden progress bar again.

Then, Xu Bai fell into thought. He connected what the abbot of Vajra Temple had just said and quickly figured out the reason.

The Black Lotus can gradually give rise to new Buddhists ideas, but ultimately, the Black Lotus is born from the Wu Hua. In other words, the Wu Hua is the necessary catalyst for the Black Lotus to emerge.

Xu Bai understood. Right now, Wu Hua could only be activated up to the Extraordinary Realm. The stronger Wu Hua was, the stronger the power he could obtain.

In other words, putting aside everything else, just talking about the benefits to Xu Bai is even more appealing than the Female Daoist Abbot.

The Female Daoist Abbot's wooden carving can increase his progress bar, and the one Wu Hua is even more impressive.

As Wu Hua's strength increases, does that mean that every time he comes back, he'll see a new progress bar? "A hen that lays eggs, this is definitely a hen that lays eggs." Xu Bai rubbed his hands vigorously, his face full of excitement.

He once had a particularly reckless idea: he wanted to tie up the Female Daoist Abbot and make Female Daoist Abbot carve wooden sculptures for him every day. Of course, that was just an idea.

He now wants to tie Wu Hua up, which is also an idea.

It's unlikely that binding Wu Hua would be feasible, as it concerns the future of Buddhists and such an approach would be somewhat extreme. However, Xu Bai has a better option than the Female Daoist Abbot.

Xu Bai is now their benefactor; he can come and go as he pleases.

He comes back to browse every now and then, so there's a constant stream of progress bar items being received, right?

Brilliant! Absolutely brilliant!

Xu Bai gave himself a thumbs up for his cleverness.

At this moment, Wu Hua increasingly felt that Xu Bai's gaze towards him was not quite right, but he didn't know what to say.

He couldn't help but recall some of the articles Liu Xu had written, especially certain descriptions, which made him shudder involuntarily, and he subconsciously put his hands behind his back to cover himself.

"Benefactor Xu, I've always considered you a brother..."

Upon hearing this, the abbot of one of the Ten Great Temples gasped, instantly arousing suspicion among the other abbots, who couldn't understand why he would do this.

"It's nothing, it's nothing." The old monk, one of the top ten abbots, chuckled and quickly brushed off his performance, "I read a lot of books, so there's some overlap."

Everyone was even more puzzled.

At this moment, Xu Bai finally realized what Wu Hua meant and was Wu Hua.

However, there's no way to explain this, and he doesn't want to explain it; the progress bar is the most important thing right now.

Xu Bai stroked his chin and said, "It's been so long, so long since I discussed Buddhism with Wu Hua. I'd like to talk to Wu Hua about Buddhism now. Is that a good condition?"

The abbot of Vajra Temple was stunned, then said, "That's all?"

He thought Xu Bai's request was outrageous, but he never expected it to be this.

The abbot of Vajra Temple couldn't help but recall what Wu Hua had told him long ago: Xu Bai didn't have the Wisdom Root to become a Buddhists disciple, but he was very enthusiastic about Buddhism. Perhaps this was related to what Wu Hua had said before.

Thinking of this, the abbot of Vajra Temple waved his hand.

"If that's all there is to it, we don't need Wu Hua. We can all take turns discussing this with King Xu."

"No, no, no." Xu Bai waved his hand and said, "Since the Saint Buddha is dead, it proves that this system is no longer suitable. I want to see what this so-called new Buddhism is."

"Sigh... alright," the abbot of Vajra Temple sighed.

Since things had already come to this point, the abbot of Vajra Temple couldn't refuse outright, so he could only reluctantly agree.

In his mind, Xu Bai's image had inexplicably risen a few points.

He has made such a great contribution and won the favor of Buddhists all over the world, yet he only asked for such a small request.

Rumors circulate in the martial arts world about how ruthless and vindictive Xu Bai is, but now it seems that Xu Bai still has many admirable qualities.

"Indeed, one should only believe half of what is said in this world." The monks present thought to themselves, "King Xu is not only not despicable and shameless, but he is a man of noble character."

Thinking of this, the monks present looked at Xu Bai with even greater respect.

Look, this is what you call noble character and integrity. He made such an extraordinary contribution, and he didn't ask for anything in return. He just wanted to hear about Buddhism.

What are we waiting for? Agree to it! We must agree to it! Otherwise, wouldn't we disappoint King Xu, and wouldn't the whole world laugh at our Buddhists?

Xu Bai couldn't understand why, for no apparent reason, the monks were looking at him with such respect.

He could only attribute it to saving the Buddhists, never expecting that a small action would cause a misunderstanding among those present.

Now that the Saint Buddha is dead, everything has returned to dust.

Next, the abbots of the Ten Great Temples began to clean up the mess, but Xu Bai didn't want to get involved. He excitedly pulled Wu Hua along and rushed into the room.

Seeing his anxious appearance, if the monks around him hadn't known that Xu Bai wanted to hear Buddhist teachings, they probably would have involuntarily thought the wrong thing.

"Smack!"

The door was closed, leaving behind a group of monks and a bewildered A Xiu.

A legend is gradually spreading in the martial arts world.

In a teahouse, a storyteller, holding a clapper, was giving a vivid and engaging narration.

"Continuing from the last episode, the Saint Buddha, still harboring wicked intentions, actually wanted to control all Buddhists in the world. However, at this moment, the appearance of a young man ruined the Saint Buddha's plan."

"This man is seven feet tall, with a strong build, a black knife at his waist, and a handsome appearance. He is known in the martial arts world as the Blood Slaughtering Saber Wielder, and is also King Xu, who oversees all the kings of different surnames."

"At that time, the Saint Buddha had already succeeded, but King Xu rose from the disaster, dressed in gold and gray-white, and stood in front of everyone without hesitation."

"King Xu looked up at the Saint Buddha in the sky, his face full of disdain. He slowly spoke, and his words shook the entire Buddhists."

"King Xu says that today, he will Slaughter Buddha!"

"As soon as he finished speaking, King Xu, clad in gold and grayish-white, engaged in a fierce battle with the Saint Buddha. The battle was so intense that the sky darkened and the sun and moon disappeared, and the entire sky was filled with the Saint Buddha's golden blood."

"Finally, King Xu stood with his sword in hand amidst a sky full of blood, and behind him was the Saint Buddha, who had already turned into a corpse."

"From that day on, Buddha died."

"Smack!"

The wooden clapper fell.

The diners and tea drinkers present were completely engrossed in the story, but when the storyteller suddenly stopped speaking, everyone's attention turned to him.

The storyteller chuckled, "To find out what happens next, please listen to the next episode."

Since he was a storyteller, he naturally had to pay attention to the rhythm. He left a cliffhanger, waiting to reveal it next time. This action of his naturally caused a burst of laughter and scolding.

Scenes like this are happening in various places in the Chu Kingdom, including Jianghu.

The Capital City.

In an abandoned old house, Eunuch Wei walked out with a normal expression.

In his emaciated right hand, he held a bloody head.

Its head bore a gruesome expression, still filled with resentment and bitterness even in death.

"What a persistent scoundrel! Our household hasn't had any activity in a long time, but this has given us a good workout." Eunuch Wei stretched his neck, looked at the head in his hand, and smiled, "Resurrection? Dream on."

Since receiving Xu Bai's letter not long ago, they have been dealing with the people on the list, and they have almost finished clearing them out.

"Call..."

A gust of wind blew by, and a swordsman with a knife suddenly passed by Eunuch Wei and threw a head to the ground.

The swordsman was old, but he still stood up straight. His sword was rusty, but there was dark red blood on the blade.

"The fifth one."

Eunuch Wei laughed and said, "As expected of the Knife Ghost, the speed at which he solved the problem is even faster than ours."

Knife Ghost sneered, "If I were above you, I wouldn't have been seriously injured by you that day. You are an extraordinary and invincible monster who can even fight against Saints. Why do you need to mock me?"

Eunuch Wei still had a smile on his face, "Have you figured it out?"

Knife Ghost took out a sword manual and threw it to Eunuch Wei, saying, "Of course I've figured it out. Because of the Sword Empress Queen, I can't possibly betray the Great Chu Kingdom in my lifetime. So I'll pass on this skill properly. But I don't know who you're going to give this sword manual to."

Eunuch Wei said thoughtfully, "King Xu."

The Knife Ghost was taken aback, then hoisted the rusty knife from his waist onto his shoulder, turned around, and prepared to leave without saying a word.

Eunuch Wei asked, "Where to?"

"There are two more," Knife Ghost said indifferently.

After taking two steps, Knife Ghost suddenly stopped and then said something else.

"I heard he's a master with a knife, so giving it to him isn't a bad thing, and it wouldn't be an insult to my knife."

Having said that, Knife Ghost had no more lingering feelings and turned to leave.

As Eunuch Wei watched the departing figure of the Knife Ghost, he slowly took out his left hand, which had been hidden behind his back, revealing it covered with gray threads.

"You do have some sense. Today, our family will spare your life."

Looking at the sword manual in his hand, Eunuch Wei smiled happily, "I must return to the Capital City to report back and then go to the Border Pass. King Xu should be very interested in our family's gift."

After saying this, Eunuch Wei's figure flickered and quickly disappeared from the spot.

The martial world is in chaos, and so are the Great Yue Kingdom and the Barbarian Tribe.

In this entire world, the only person who has not caused chaos is currently in a room, looking at the Black Lotus in Wu Hua's hand.

Wu Hua felt very angry and uncomfortable.

It's been more than ten days, almost half a month has passed.

For the past two weeks, no one knows how he got through it; only he knows how miserable he truly was.

Back in Sheng County, he had discussed Buddhism with Xu Bai, and at that time, he felt it was a form of torture.

No matter what was said, Xu Bai always looked completely bewildered, which was like talking to a brick wall.

Doing this kind of thing occasionally is fine, but doing it for a long time can easily lead to a strong sense of discomfort.

Most importantly, Wu Hua felt that Xu Bai was even more perverted than when he was in Sheng County.

That's right, he's a pervert! Back in Sheng County, while Xu Bai was listening to him talk about Buddhism, he kept staring at his bald head. In short, he felt like his head wasn't even his own anymore, and that Xu Bai might take it away at any moment.

During this discussion of Buddhism, Xu Bai even made a request to him: he had to keep the Black Lotus in his hand.

Wu Hua was puzzled at the time and asked about it, but Xu Bai dismissed his question with a single sentence.

"I like it this way."

Wu Hua was stunned, but then she remembered that Xu Bai was the benefactor of all Buddhists. After thinking it over, she did as he said.

He originally thought it would only be a short time, but he didn't expect it to last for almost half a month.

For the past two weeks, he has been holding up a black lotus flower while preaching Buddhism, which has made him feel ashamed of the black lotus flower without realizing it.

And today, I am finally free.

"Over the past two weeks, discussing Buddhism with Brother Wu Hua has made me feel more and more like I'm about to take refuge in Buddhism." Xu Bai patted Wu Hua's shoulder, his smile fake, and his words even more fake.

Wu Hua sighed and said, "Benefactor Xu, you really don't have the Wisdom Root. Maybe you should just give up?"

"Let's let it go this time," Xu Bai said with a smile.

Wu Hua noticed the blind spot. "This time?"

Xu Bai nodded, his face full of satisfaction, and said, "Brother Wu Hua, you must seize the time to improve your strength. When I have time in the future, I will come over and discuss the new ideas of Buddhists with you."

Before his eyes, Wu Hua was no longer the Wu Hua, but had become a ruthless progress bar production machine.

"I'm leaving." Xu Bai turned and left without saying a word, and he left in a hurry, leaving Wu Hua standing there in a daze.

He had to hurry because the progress bar on the Black Lotus was already full, and light blue text was appearing. He needed to avoid any special effects resulting from gaining the skill.

Xu Bai rushed back to his room at top speed, slammed the door shut, and then looked at the empty space in front of him.

Not far ahead, pale blue text appeared, which then coalesced into a line of text that Xu Bai could understand.

[You comprehend the Black Lotus and grasp the Demon Buddha True Body.]

After the words appeared, they quickly turned back into smoke, but instead of becoming information and entering his mind, new words appeared.

—Merge! [Merge option found, currently in progress.]

[Demon Buddha True Body + Vajra Saint Demon Exemption Suppression Body + Undying Soul Body = Undying Demon Soul Buddha Body.]

[Merger successful!]

Three, a full three skills combined together.

After the words "fusion successful" appeared, the light blue text completely disappeared, then transformed into a large amount of information, which entered Xu Bai's mind.

Xu Bai closed his eyes and carefully chewed over all the information before opening them again.

Before his eyes, the latest attribute panel appeared, displayed in the void not far from Xu Bai.

[Name: Xu Bai]

[Realm Level: Third Grade Mortal Third Rank Loose Cultivator.]

[Swordless Saber Grand Technique (Transcendent Stage 2): Max Level.]

[Myriad Aspects Heavenly Attraction Art (Transcendent Stage 3): Max Level.]

[Returning Wind Flowing Snow (Tier 5): Max Level.]

[Nine Revolutions of Action and Ruin (Rank 9): Max Level.]

[Moving Stars and Changing Constellations (Tier 9): Max Level.]

[Undying Demon Soul Buddha Body (Transcendent Tier 1): Max Level.]

[Strengthening Kidney Gathering Art (Transcendent Stage 1): Max Level.]

[Poison Compendium (Tier 9): Max Level.]

[Mechanism Puppet True Explanation (Tier 9): Max Level.]

[Water Adaptation Method (Tier 5): Max Level]

[Feng Shui Arithmetic (Level 9): Max Level.]

[Thousand Faces Method (Tier 9): Max Level.]

[Yin Yang Coexistence (Transcendent Stage 1): Max Level.]

[Comprehension: Max level.]

Xu Bai rubbed his eyes, wondering if he was seeing things. After confirming several times, he realized that what he was seeing was real.

The Undying Soul Body is gone, as is the Vajra Saint Demon Exemption Suppression Body, but it has been replaced by the Undying Demon Soul Buddha Body.

This skill has reached the first level of the extraordinary realm, far exceeding the Transcendent Realm.

What is the extraordinary? It is the realm that transcends the mortal, crossing a whole new realm.

Xu Bai never expected that the progress bar on the Black Lotus would be so effective.

The Undying Demon Soul Buddha Body, having reached the first level of the Extraordinary Realm, also possesses Extraordinary defensive capabilities. Furthermore, it retains the original Undying Soul Body's ability to repair itself, which has also been elevated to the Extraordinary Realm.

Most importantly, after merging together, guided by the Demon Buddha True Body, a single skill can fulfill all the previous effects, saving him a lot of trouble and reducing many of his weaknesses.

It can both defend and heal—perfect.

After grinding like crazy for more than half a month, this skill has actually become the strongest skill I currently have.

"However... there is still a weakness." After pondering for a moment, Xu Bai quickly identified the weakness.

—His True Yuan Power is insufficient.

Even with the True Yuan Power contained in the Body-Strengthening Collection Art, it's still not enough to operate at the first level of the Extraordinary Realm.

It's like playing a game: his skills are powerful enough, but he doesn't have enough mana.

Given his current condition, he can probably only use it for about half an hour while operating at full power.

Like before, he was never afraid to drive anytime, anywhere, around the clock.

"It seems I need to find an opportunity to improve my mental cultivation. However, half an hour should be enough." After a moment's thought, Xu Bai had already set his goals for the future.

Half an hour, and with all firepower at full speed, is already quite powerful.

He's not a real man for five seconds; half an hour is enough for him to grind many people into powder.

"It seems I'm fighting against opponents of higher ranks even more..."

With that thought in mind, Xu Bai finally finished this last task and completely relaxed.

"Hmm, let's try it out and see how the defense is."

Having acquired a new skill naturally makes one want to try it out, and Xu Bai was no exception.

It's just a test of defense, not an offensive tactic, and I'm not worried about damaging the surrounding area.

Xu Bai rubbed his hands together, excitedly circulating his True Distance Force.

As his True Yuan Power surged, Xu Bai felt True Yuan Power slipping away like water; the level of consumption was simply too great.

The next moment, as his True Yuan Power surged, Xu Bai examined his own appearance, his lips twitching slightly.

"This is... way too outrageous! I don't want it to become like this!"
