[Consuming 400 experience points, becoming Occultist... Detected that the job requires a Tier 1 prerequisite profession: Medium, Spirit 2.5, Soul Projection LV2!... Conditions met! Initiating advancement!]

On the Attribute Panel, 400 experience points were rapidly depleted.

Sulu let out a muffled groan, his soul seemingly losing its connection with his body for a fleeting moment, his mind a complete blank.

Second-tier professionals, known as elites, are those who have begun to stand out among ordinary extraordinary individuals and are the elite of their kind!

If promoted normally, a [Medium] would need at least a year to continuously explore the Spirit World, resolve numerous paranormal events, take some medicines and rituals to enhance their spirit, hone their skills, and undergo arduous study to delve into various occult knowledge before barely reaching the promotion threshold of [Occultist].

But Sulu replaced all of these with experience points!

It hasn't even been a month since he first advanced to the extraordinary realm!

How utterly inhuman and depraved is this?

If this gets out, it will definitely cause a storm in the supernatural world!

In the midst of chaos, Sulu sensed a massive amount of information, which was being fed into him at an even more terrifying speed than the first time.

It contained a vast amount of occult knowledge, which seemed to be directly imprinted in their genes—no! their souls—and rapidly manifested itself!

Most of them are about identification techniques for mysterious items, or even simple methods of using them!

Sulu couldn't help but think of the description of the [Occultist] in Kira's notebook.

"[Occultist]: Possesses some knowledge of mysticism and can create simple Curio. Understands that studying mysticism requires not only a strong mind but also a resilient physique!"

Having already experienced it once, even though it was incredibly painful, he still quickly memorized and absorbed the knowledge.

After an unknown amount of time, a notification appeared in the Attribute Panel:

[Ding! Job offer successful!]

[Joined as Occultist! Spirit +1! Constitution +1! Gained Skill: Wonder Item Crafting! Gained Passive Skill: Occult Lore!]

The next moment, Sulu felt his soul return to his body, and he could clearly hear the sound of blood gushing.

A powerful force nearly tore his blood vessels apart.

"Hiss... Is this the Baptism of advancing from the first tier to the second tier? It actually increased my attributes by a total of 2.0. It's definitely much more terrifying than the first-tier Baptism..."

After resting for ten minutes, Sulu finally managed to adjust. Looking at his Attribute Panel, he was puzzled again. "But... why do I need to add points to Constitution for a second-tier [Occultist]? Am I going to develop into someone who can tear ghosts apart with his bare hands?"

On the Attribute Panel, all the data had been completely updated:

Name: [Sulu Potter]

Occupation: [Occultist] (Tier 2)

Job Rank: [2]

Title: [None]

Strength: [1.6], Agility: [1.3], Constitution: [2.2], Spirit: [3.8]

Inspiration: [3.8]

Skills: [Corpse Maiden Creation LV1], [Krav Maga Combat Arts LV5], [Soul Projection LV2], [Spirit Pressure LV2], [Spirit Spike LV2], [Wonder Item Crafting LV1]

XP:[20]

"Becoming a second-tier transcendent is on par with Rhode! If he knew, he'd probably be shocked!"

Sulu straightened his clothes.

At this point, he had understood the [Occultist's ] abilities.

They can identify most mysteries, have extensive knowledge, and can use extraordinary materials to create some simple Curio. They even have some hand-to-hand combat skills.

With his physique, even without any martial arts training, he could easily take down several burly men.

"My mental strength has surged by 1.0, which is indeed a bit of a headache!"

Sulu covered his head.

Such a terrifying increase in attributes, a result of the Baptism of advancement, is his true reliance in fighting against second-tier Evil Spirit.

Of course, he had already prepared some scapegoats beforehand!

The purpose of deliberately leaving the address in the meat processing plant was to ensure that Gerald, the businessman, and the Evil Spirit possessing Kira Giles would both suffer heavy losses, allowing Gerald to clean up the mess later.

He stood up and discovered that his body had also received a terrifying enhancement.

Physical constitution! It is a summary of a person's physical strength and is closely related to recovery ability and resistance.

A physique of 2.2 is absolutely 'extraordinary' level.

This means that Sulu has a very high level of immunity, which can basically prevent most diseases. His recovery speed is also amazing; minor wounds usually don't need to be bandaged and will heal automatically in a few days.

Furthermore, it possesses extremely strong resistance, making it more resilient than ordinary people when facing spirits or various spells!

"In other words, it's about durability! If it continues to improve, it'll be like a cockroach-like protagonist in a TV drama who can't be killed no matter what..."

Sulu had a slight toothache. "[Occultist] place so much emphasis on physical constitution, is it because they are prone to courting death? Therefore, they must enhance their survival abilities?"

He himself felt that this was very likely.

"I'm already a second-tier extraordinary elite. As for what path I should take next, I'll have to wait and see what Kira's legacy brings!"

Sulu dared to use this broken inheritance to advance his rank because he knew that the second rank of the [Medium] path was all [Occultist], and only the third rank would have branching options.

He might not be promoted to [Thaumaturge] next!

Because the fourth stage of this road is incomplete!

On the contrary, Kira possesses a complete set of inherited skills!

So... we still have to go save that guy!

Sulu sat cross-legged on the bed and took out several items.

It contained a container filled with a gallon of blood, along with the sacrificial silver utensils he had purchased, and two strange bird beaks!

These two bird beaks were what he got from killing the two Beak-Masked Man, and they also made him enemies with the mastermind behind it all. It would be best to kill the other party.

"I didn't quite understand the ritual Kira Giles described at first... but now that I look at it again, it's just ordinary, nothing was tampered with!"

This is due to the [Mystic Occult Lore Occultist] possesses, allowing Sulu to have some knowledge of many mystical fields.

Of course, it's just a dabbling; I know a little about everything, but I'm not an expert in anything.

"Judging from the ritual and the fact that the other party was Evil Spirit Possession, Kira is most likely also a second-tier [Occultist]!"

This is not surprising. Advancing to a higher level in an extraordinary profession is by no means a simple matter. In addition, given that it was during the Twilight of the Gods period, it is normal that it would take several years to break through.

Not everyone is like Sulu, who has cheated with his Attribute Panel.
