"It'll be about six months before you return, so you can go grind some points. I'll have the Red Queen issue an order that all sects must register and hand over their martial arts manuals. If they refuse, then kill them all."
Xu Long grabbed Xu Jiao's hand and said, "No matter which sect you choose, you'll reap huge benefits. I also have many powerful martial arts techniques here; I'll copy them for you when we get back."
With the Red Queen controlling the entire Great Ming, countless resources were inexhaustible.
Xu Jiao slaughtered so many that blood flowed like a river, while Xu Long calmed down and honed his martial arts skills.
He possessed too many and too varied martial arts skills, and many of them were repetitive.
Such as palm techniques, the Eighteen Dragon-Subduing Palms, the Thousand Phoenixes Heart-Piercing Palm, the Eight Trigrams Wandering Dragon Palm, the Bone-Dissolving Soft Palm, the Buddha's Palm...
Only the Eighteen Dragon-Subduing Palms are needed; there's no need to waste energy on the others.
The same applies to leg techniques; having one set for escaping and one set for engaging the enemy is more than enough.
Time flies, and the day of return has finally arrived.
[Main Quest: Survive for two years! Completed! Gain 6000 points! Teleport to the Reincarnation Temple!]
Under Haitang's lingering gaze, Xu Long and Xu Jiao vanished from the spot in an instant.
Half asleep, half awake, in a daze, two years have passed like a dream.
[Teleportation complete! The summoner has returned to the Reincarnation Temple! Quest rewards are now being calculated!]
[Main Quest: 1. Survive for two years and earn 6000 points!]
[Side Quests: 1. Defeat Iron Courage Divine Marquis, gain 6000 points! 2. Defeat Cao Zhengchun, gain 6000 points!]
[Hidden Missions: 1. Defeat Wuwan and Princess Lixiu, earning a total of 8500 points! 2. Defeat Yagyu Tajima no Kami and Li Tianhao, earning a total of 8500 points! 3. Defeat numerous martial arts masters from Fusang and the Central Plains, earning a total of 375400 points! 4. Defeat Guihai Yidao, earning 4000 points!]
[Team Battle Missions: 1. Kill 9 ordinary C-rank Reincarnation Temple, earning a total of 27,000 points! 2. Kill 1 elite C-rank Reincarnation Temple, earning 6,000 points!]
[Total points earned: 447,400! Overall rating: S, awarded one C-rank access card!]
[Global Announcement: Reincarnation Temple " Long Aotian " has cleared the " Number One Under Heaven " world and achieved an S-rank rating! " Number One Under Heaven " is now complete!]
[ Dragon Ball activated, energy level C-rank!]
[The " A Wicked Ghost " event has been activated; its energy level is C-rank!]
"Good heavens, the A Wicked Ghost? Aunt Chu Renmei?"
Upon hearing the announcement from the Main God, Xu Long couldn't help but shudder.
If C-rank- level Chu Renmei were to enter, even a single B-rank Reincarnation Temple would be wiped out.
It directly attacks the soul, causing hallucinations and then leading the person to do self-harming things.
For an ordinary person, it's no big deal; at most, they'd grab a kitchen knife and start hacking around.
However, if it were a C-rank Reincarnation Temple, the damage would be much greater.
Friendship and love are all nonsense; it will definitely be a chaotic war combining betrayal, rebellion, and so on.
"Over 400,000 points, if word got out, it would probably scare the other Reincarnation Temple to death."
Xu Long was extremely excited. He had turned the world of the Number One Under Heaven world upside down and earned enough points to make other C-rank Reincarnation Temple risk their lives fifty or sixty times over.
" Main God, full recovery complete!"
[17400 points deducted, repairs begin!]
A soft white light fell from the sky, enveloping Xu Long completely.
The higher the level of the Reincarnation Temple, the longer the time required for enhancement, and the same applies to full-body repair.
The white light lasted for more than five hours. When it disappeared, Xu Long's hair had returned to its original black color, and the wrinkles on his face were gone.
" Main God, why do I need so many points for a full body repair?"
Looking at the records, Xu Long felt as if his heart was bleeding.
Seventeen thousand four thousand! You'd have to kill several cannon fodder weaklings to earn that back!
[The points consumption rules for full-body repair are as follows: Ordinary physical repair requires a maximum of 5000 points! Repairing at the genetic level requires a maximum of 10000 points! Repairing to the soul has no upper limit on points consumed!]
[The conflict between the Two Qi of Yin and Yang within the recruit's body is extremely intense, and has already damaged his soul!]
"I see!"
Hearing the explanation from the Main God, Xu Long understood what was going on.
Repairing at the genetic level yields a maximum of 10,000 points, but once the soul is touched, there seems to be no upper limit.
This shows that even the Main God cannot fully control the mysteries of the soul, and some injuries may not even be fully healed.
" Main God, can the drawbacks of the Indestructible Golden Body be resolved?"
Xu Long looked up at the sky and continued to ask.
The power of the Indestructible Golden Body is beyond doubt. It combines the advantages of the Vajra Indestructible Divine Art and the Energy Absorption Great Art, making it extremely perfect in many aspects, including attack, defense, endurance, and growth.
The only drawback is that it requires the body to maintain an absolute balance of Two Qi of Yin and Yang.
[To resolve the drawbacks of the Indestructible Golden Body, there are three options: 1. Exchange for bloodlines such as the Chaos Indestructible Body or the Yin-Yang Coexisting Body! 2. Modify the Indestructible Golden Body martial arts manual and the body's Yin-Yang attributes to make them perfectly matched! 3. Use items containing Two Qi of Yin and Yang to adjust the body's balance at any time!]
The Main God presented three choices, with the difficulty decreasing in that order.
The most difficult one is the first one, the Chaos Indestructible Body, the Yin-Yang Coexisting Body; you can tell what level it is just by looking at the name.
It requires S-rank access cards, and not just one, but a full ten.
In addition to the access card, a huge amount of points are also required.
Xu Long counted them carefully, then decided to give up.
There are too many zeros at the end; it's making my head spin.
The second change is that the attributes and body attributes of the Indestructible Golden Body Manual can only be selected as pure Yang or pure Yin, and the Yin-Yang balance cannot be selected.
The third one is simple: if there's too much yang energy, absorb some yin energy; if there's too much yin energy, absorb some yang energy. This only treats the symptoms, not the root cause.
After thinking it over, Xu Long decided to choose the second option.
Well, actually there was no choice at all.
[Choose to change the Indestructible Golden Body and the Yin-Yang attributes of your body; 100,000 points are required!]
[Are you sure?]
[The recruit's soul has been detected to be of pure Yang attribute. Forcibly changing it to Yin attribute will cause soul collapse!]
[Recruits can choose to change their physical attributes to pure Yang, matching their soul attributes, which will greatly increase the chance of a beneficial mutation! Requires 300,000 points and two C-rank permission cards!]
Goodness! Could you get any darker?
Xu Long was so angry he almost cursed. What choice? He had no choice at all.
He couldn't afford those powerful bloodlines, and he didn't care about using items to adjust the yin-yang balance. His only option was to change the attributes of his body and his Indestructible Golden Body.
Originally, one could choose between pure Yin or pure Yang, but now, choosing pure Yin leads to a broken soul, while choosing pure Yang means exhausting one's entire fortune.
