Rumble--
The aftershocks of the clash between more than a dozen Calamity Grade caused the sea to surge with terrifying waves, and large whirlpools appeared in this area, with countless dark blue eddies covering the surface of the sea, spinning endlessly.
The gale-force winds sucked up the seawater, forming a towering waterspout that connected the ocean with the dark clouds.
The bitter wind and rain transformed into a white mist in the wind, drifting and swirling.
Above sea level, the scene is apocalyptic, as if nature itself has transformed into a husky, running wild with abandon.
The moment Han Xiao submerged into the sea, these noises suddenly became ethereal and indistinct, as if separated by a veil. The seawater weakened the propagation of some of the sound in the air, while the roaring and turbulent sounds of the sea currents were instantly amplified, as if he were in the center of hundreds of giant drums, surrounded by surround sound, with rumbling and muffled sounds rolling in from all directions.
Radar showed that Stefan had also gone into the sea, Han Xiao's eyes narrowed.
"I need to keep her occupied first; she can't get close when I'm advancing."
Thinking it over, Han Xiao ordered the mechanical legion following him to turn back and engage them, while he quickly descended.
The underwater world before me was a deep abyss, the distance turning from deep blue to pitch black, with low visibility. There was no light source here, and the end was nowhere in sight; it was darker than the universe.
"Luckily, I don't have thalassophobia," Han Xiao thought to himself.
The ocean is the cradle of life, and the oceans of Planet Aquamarine are home to many ancient creatures. But at this moment, all the marine life in this area has fled, leaving the sea desolate and lifeless.
Stefan was held back by the mechanical legion, while Han Xiao moved quickly underwater and found a trench that had opened up just a few hours earlier.
"Let's do it here."
Han Xiao's heart skipped a beat. He immediately opened the panel, selected the advanced task that was marked "Completed," and activated it.
A shiver ran through his bones and soul, and he was all too familiar with this feeling of advancement.
At this moment, a series of prompts frantically popped up on the panel:
[Trial of the Strong]: Current progress 50/50
[Level 180 advancement quest completed! Stamina bonus increased! 1 Stamina = 120 Health Points = 130 Vitality]
[You have taken another step forward on the path of evolution, your life level has been elevated, and your race has been detected as: [Chaos Observer) ]... Randomly selecting eight matching evolutionary directions... Selection complete!]
Please choose one of the following eight options as your evolved species -- Warning! Evolution is irreversible, please choose carefully! [Appendix - Explanation of Evolutionary Direction Characteristics]
[[Type X Cosmic Human] - 67% compatibility]
[[Void Walker) ] -78% Compatibility]
[Shadow of Darkness) ] -72% Compatibility
[[Void Disciple) ] -71% Compatibility]
[[Void Twister) ] -69% Compatibility]
[[Void Whisperer) ] -84% Compatibility]
[[Void Ooze] 55% compatibility]
[Eight-Clawed Race] -31% Compatibility
First, we can eliminate non-Void races. Eight-Clawed Race with tentacles are completely out of the question, and Void Ooze too bizarre to be considered either.
The Void Whisperer is a spirit form, suitable for mages and telekinetic practitioners. Han Xiao formidable physical strength, naturally wouldn't give up the physical form.
The only reliable options are the four evolutionary options that retain the human form.
Han Xiao quickly browsed through the list and immediately made his choice.
The Void Archduke's core enhanced his Void Gene. Since Han Xiao jumped from the human evolutionary system to the Void evolutionary system, he was a latecomer and naturally couldn't compare to individuals who were Void species from the beginning. However, the Void Archduke's core and other Void species genetic items improved his evolutionary level in the Void system, allowing him to catch up in evolutionary speed.
Thanks to the Void Archduke's core, this racial ascension has introduced an option to transcend levels. This is a higher-level species in the Void Evolution System. According to his data, this species is a whole level higher in the evolutionary chain than other normal options, which can make up for the parts that he is lagging behind!
Whether considering the current attribute boosts or the potential for future upward evolution, this species is the best choice!
Han Xiao made a quick decision.
[Selection complete, race evolving... evolution complete!]
[Race changed to: [Void Twister) ], molecular structure improved, organ structure strengthened, metabolism altered, adaptability enhanced, genes optimized... Your potential and aptitude increased!]
[You have gained the following attribute enhancements: Strength +44, Agility +83, Stamina +65, Intelligence +120, Mysticism +92, Charisma +34, Vigor +1460. Vigor level bonus attribute has been changed!]
Han Xiao's eyes widened suddenly, a deep, eerie light gleaming in the depths of his pupils.
The cells and genes throughout the body change, causing a double whammy of excruciating pain in both the body and mind. The field of vision constantly shifts between reality and Void Vision, and the brain trembles.
The thirsty body greedily absorbed the energy from the Void Dimension, its entire body radiating a mysterious gray light and a deep blue light.
The two previous evolutions were Void Prowler and Chaos Observer. If we evaluate Void species in terms of the Legion system, these two are ordinary soldiers of different types, while Void Twister are centurions!
He skipped a rank, going from a lowly cannon fodder soldier to a mid-level officer!
This racial ascension greatly deepened his connection with the Void Dimension. His body seemed to become a container, with void energy directly flowing into it, and every cell absorbing void energy.
The energy originating from cells has also changed under the erosion of the energy of the void:
[You have received the blessing of Void Energy!]
[Your stamina recovery speed +30%]
[Your stamina +1000]
[You have gained a new Strength attribute: [Void] -- Your Strength possesses the Void characteristic]
A new Strength attribute!
Han Xiao. He endured the pain and hurriedly glanced at the panel. The panel displayed dual strength attributes: one was the mechanic's magnetic attribute Mechanical Force, and the other was the newly acquired void attribute.
Seeing this, Han Xiao was so excited he almost burst out laughing; he was experiencing both pain and pleasure.
The changes in the Qi attribute are not as obvious as the attribute value, but they are very important and can even change a person's fighting style.
Although the panel description was ambiguous, Han Xiao had already felt the changes in the energy within his body during the process of racial sublimation, gradually making it as responsive as his own limbs. Moreover, he remembered the information from his previous life and was very clear about the effects of the [Void] attribute:
Energy erosion!
Transmitting energy through the medium of the Void Dimension!
These two characteristics are extremely effective in actual combat and can be paired with any class!
Evolution continued, and the void energy within the body gradually became saturated, stirring the seawater and forming a giant whirlpool underwater.
Han Xiao's advancement caught Stefan's attention.
We can't let him act recklessly!
Stefan didn't know what Han Xiao was doing, but that didn't stop her from trying to stop Han Xiao. She frantically shook the seawater, crushing mechanical soldiers and clearing a path.
She charged straight towards the center of the underwater whirlpool, unleashing a powerful wave of energy with a wave of her hand.
Boom!!
The underwater whirlpool was shattered into turbulent currents in the blink of an eye. At the critical moment, Han Xiao avoided a direct hit, only to be pushed far away by the aftershocks.
Stefan was a formidable opponent. Han Xiao didn't slowly savor the changes in his body. He glanced at the various new talents displayed on the panel, then directly poured experience points into the panel and frantically clicked to level up!
Experience greatly reduced!
He rose fifteen levels in a row!
Upgrade prompts kept popping up.
[[Truth Mechanic] upgraded to Lv25 (Max), Strength +450, Agility +4, Endurance +4, Intelligence +10, you gain 7 free attribute points and 1 potential point.]
Having reached the top level in his profession, Han Xiao's advancement momentum came to a halt.
It's still a full Intelligence stat allocation.
Total level 195!
Before Han Xiao could even check the changes on his attribute panel, the rapid surge in his strength caused a feeling of expansion within him. The abundant and powerful energy was almost bursting every cell in his body, and he desperately needed to release it.
Without a word, Han Xiao retrieved the Mountain Ape Mech that had been destroyed twice and charged towards Stefan.
Only then did Stefan see Han Xiao's current appearance clearly, and her expression immediately changed.
Han Xiao's skin turned silver-gray, with a crystalline texture and shimmering with energy. His body was covered with symmetrical, eerie dark blue patterns, and his entire body was burning with silver flames fueled by void energy. His hair, which had also turned silver-gray and was floating in the sea, resembled dancing flames.
His eyes turned obsidian-like, and his pupils became tiny white specks of light, the size of rice grains.
This appearance is somewhat similar to the former Void Prowler, but the energy fluctuations it emits are even more astonishing.
New racial ability - [Void Degeneration]!
"What is this...?"
Stefan was taken aback.
In that instant, Han Xiao spread his arms wide, half of his palms reaching into the Void Dimension, his fingers curling into claws, as if he were pulling a canvas and yanking it hard.
Try this!
The next moment, the world before Stefan's eyes suddenly became distorted.
She felt as if all the muscles, bones, nerves, and blood vessels in her body were squeezed together and then kneaded apart by an invisible hand. She had the illusion that she had become a rag, being kneaded and twisted, and having her body drained of its juices.
It was only a fleeting moment, but in her perception, it felt like countless years had passed. This indescribable and strange feeling was beyond the comprehension of most people. For Stefan, this moment was like a dream. After waking up, she forgot the contents of the dream, but an unparalleled sense of insignificance remained in her heart, as if she had dreamt of something extremely terrifying.
Just as I was feeling lost, a continuous, excruciating pain suddenly erupted in every corner of my body!
Stefan snapped back to her senses, her face paling with horror. A sense of foreboding washed over her, and she tried to retreat quickly, but the surrounding seawater had somehow begun to spin rapidly, creating a terrifying suction force that made it difficult for her to escape.
"Oh no!" Stefan was shocked.
The anomaly here also spread to the sea surface. All the small whirlpools in this chaotic sea area were torn apart by the turbulent currents and merged into a super whirlpool that seemed to be about to devour the sky and the earth!
Rumble--
All ten Calamity Grade in the sky stopped, staring in shock at the terrifying vortex that stretched almost endlessly beneath their feet.
In their eyes, the ocean ceased to be the ocean, becoming like a deep starry sky, and this whirlpool was practically Black Hole in the starry sky.
Profound, mysterious, terrifying!
Like the gaping maw of an abyss!
The only people who could have made such a commotion were Han Xiao and Stefan, who had both entered the adult entertainment industry.
"What did they do in the sea?" Vilton stared in horror.
Meanwhile, in the ocean.
Stefan felt as if she had been thrown into a washing machine, bobbing and tumbling in the vortex, enduring terrifying tearing and damage.
At the center of the calmest vortex, Han Xiao gripped the Void Dimension tightly with both hands, but faced immense resistance. He could only maintain the status quo with all his might, and his internal energy was being consumed frantically, continuously released through his hands.
"This evolved species is fucking ferocious!"
Han Xiao was also taken aback by the effect of this attack.
This technique comes from the Void Twister ' new innate ability.
[Twist Void]!!
