Chapter 195 Upgrade and Xuanming Zhenwu
"What's wrong Angelica?"
The father noticed something was wrong with his daughter and asked with some confusion.
However,
when he asked the exit.
The little girl Chen Danggui, who had been frightened before, as if she had seen a ghost, has now regained her composure.
"I don't know either."
"I just thought that weirdo wearing a mask was so scary."
"But now. It doesn't seem so scary anymore."
Chen Danggui tugged at the pigtails on her head, with a puzzled expression on her face.
She also didn't understand.
Why did I feel scared before?
Now I am not afraid at all.
She is still young, so she naturally doesn't know.
Before Chen Sheng left, he had used the ability of the Eye of True Sight to drain away all her negative emotions.
At the same time, the curiosity that arose when his father and the grocery store owner saw Chen Sheng was also removed to avoid unnecessary complications.
"People are as big as little devils."
Seeing her daughter looking confused.
The father just thought that she was as funny as before, so he smiled and flicked his daughter's white forehead.
"Oops, disgusting!"
Chen Danggui was so angry that she thought she was about to forget about Chen Sheng, and raised her two small fists to hit her father's legs repeatedly.
While the two were fighting, they walked into the grocery store together.
"Uncle Fu."
Father Chen greeted the boss.
The old man, who was listening to the radio with his eyes squinted and had been indifferent to Chen Sheng before, suddenly sat up from his bamboo chair when he heard this voice.
"What a distinguished guest, Lao Chen."
"I have to go up the mountain to collect medicine again today."
When he saw the small bamboo basket held on Chen Danggui's back, a flattering smile suddenly appeared on his wrinkled old face.
"Little Angelica is getting more and more beautiful."
Said.
The boss also raised his hand to say hello to Chen Angelica.
snort!
Face the boss's overtures.
Chen Danggui showed no mercy and turned her face away.
She has not forgotten how the old man bullied them before her brother went to Kyoto.
"Danggui, don't be rude!"
See how my daughter behaves.
Father Chen was a little embarrassed.
After scolding his daughter, he looked at his boss with an apologetic smile on his face.
"I'm sorry, Uncle Fu. Don't be surprised if the kid is ignorant."
"it's okay no problem."
The boss waved his hands repeatedly and seemed not to mind at all.
"You said you did too."
"With such a promising son, what else can he do to survive every day?"
"Wouldn't it be better to enjoy happiness every day like me?"
Faced with the boss's persuasion, Chen's father chuckled and did not respond.
His eyes searched around the store.
"Uncle Fu, I need a shovel. The one at home broke a few days ago."
Farm tools are also sold in the boss's grocery store.
"Okay, okay."
This time.
The boss is no longer as perfunctory as he was with Chen Sheng.
Instead, he took quick steps and trotted toward the back of the store.
When it reappears.
There is already an extra medicine shovel in his hand.
This is the shovel that must be used to ensure the integrity of the medicinal materials when going up the mountain to collect herbs.
"Give."
Take the shovel from the boss.
Father Chen was ready to scan the QR code and transfer money.
But this time.
"No, no, no."
"Your son went to Kyoto to follow a big shot."
"We, the people of Datian Village, are all enjoying the blessings of your family. How can we let you spend any more money?"
The boss quickly reached out his hand and tried to stop Chen's father from scanning the QR code.
Unfortunately.
I don’t know if it’s because of his slow movement due to his old age, or for some other reason.
After all, his palm was slightly slower than Chen's father's mobile phone.
"I also paid for this."
Make the payment to the boss.
Chen's father took the hand of Chen Angelica, who was pouting and sulking, and left the grocery store together.
"Come to my old man for tea anytime you have time"
The boss bid farewell to the two of them very warmly.
However,
When the figures of Chen and his father disappeared into reality.
The smile on the boss's face disappeared.
"Just show off."
"Just pretend."
He spat hard on the ground.
There was undisguised jealousy on his face.
"Your son got lucky and joined a big shot."
"You have to wander around the village every day to show off, right?"
"Sooner or later, your family will be in trouble."
The boss cursed a few times.
I just feel extremely comfortable.
immediately,
He lay down comfortably on the bamboo chair and began to hum softly along with the opera on the radio.
On the road to Datian Village.
"Little Angelica, what's wrong?"
"Are you angry with dad?"
Father Chen lowered his head.
Seeing that her daughter's mouth was about to reach the sky, she quickly knelt down and gently stroked Chen Danggui's little head.
"It's dad's fault. He shouldn't have hurt you just now."
"Look, what is this?"
Father Chen raised the ice cream cone in front of Chen Angelica.
"This is your favorite ice cream."
"If little Angelica forgives daddy, daddy will treat you to a meal, okay?"
Saying,
The ice cream came back and forth and began to wave in front of the stern-faced Chen Angelica.
Gudu——
Chen Danggui actually doesn't want to forgive her father yet.
Because she knew that the old man in the grocery store was very bad.
And just now he was cursing their family.
No matter what,
Even if she wanted to be angry.
But when the ice cream is sloshed in front of me again and again.
Chen Danggui's eyes were still attracted to her unconsciously.
The saliva in her mouth continued to secrete, making her unable to help but start swallowing.
"snort!"
finally,
Chen Danggui still couldn't hold it back.
She snorted.
He snatched the ice cream away from Father Chen's hand, opened the lid and started licking it again and again.
"Now, after eating ice cream, you can't be angry with dad again."
Father Chen smiled fondly and took Chen Danggui's hand as he spoke.
"Oh well!"
Feel the sweet taste releasing in your mouth.
Chen Danggui felt that most of the unhappiness in her heart immediately dissipated.
Two pigtails dangled upwards. -
A pair of black and round eyes instantly curved into crescent moons.
Father Chen also allowed his hand to be held.
He looked down at his lovely daughter.
"How about accompanying Dad to the mountain to collect medicine?"
"good!"
Chen Angelica raised her little head and responded loudly.
Father Chen smiled slightly.
very nice.
My daughter is well-behaved and sensible.
The son has a future.
Maybe this is the pinnacle of life.
Ever since.
The father and daughter held hands and began to move towards the mountains.
——
boom--
His arms flew through the air one after another, creating waves of air.
Even if the owner of the arm has been very restrained.
However, surrounding trees will still be instantly destroyed by the sweeping wind pressure.
Among the woods.
Chen Sheng moved forward while practicing Xingyi Quan.
Now, every time he exercises, his attributes will skyrocket.
From yesterday to now,
His attributes have been increased by more than half.
If you don't use some free time, hurry up and become familiar with the ever-increasing physical strength.
As his attributes become higher and higher, even breathing may cause great damage to the environment.
Just like what happened at Yinghui Grocery Store before, even worse.
Time passes little by little.
at first,
Chen Sheng punched every time.
The terrifying air waves will instantly destroy the surrounding trees.
But as he became more familiar with the power, he was able to land a punch.
The air waves that exploded around him became smaller and smaller.
This is because Chen Sheng has controlled most of his power in the attack and no longer escapes as much as before.
When you come to the river bank.
Uh-huh!
One punch.
Unremarkable.
But the faintly twisted air around the fist made people feel a little numb just looking at it.
tread.
Keep your feet steady.
Chen Sheng looked at the fire outside the tent.
The elixir in the pot has begun to emit strong fluorescence.
The heat is almost done.
No hesitation.
Chen Sheng picked up the iron pot and drank it with his head raised.
Quickly came to the open space in the distance.
He closed his eyes and gradually adjusted his body to its optimal state.
Call up the panel.
Chen Sheng's eyes were fixed, and his eyes fell on the skill point.
[Xuanming Zhenwu lv3: 0/500]
[Skill points: 521]
upgrade!
Xuanming Zhenwu's words quickly became blurry.
Skill points drop rapidly.
In a short breath.
Freeze again.
[Skill points: 21]
[Xuanming Zhenwu lv4:0/1000]
boom!
A huge flow of information and muscle memory poured into Chen Sheng's mind instantly.
Over and over again, the memories of practicing the Xuanming Zhenwu, releasing the Xuanwu Transformation, and controlling the water spirit flashed through my mind.
Every joint.
Every point.
Like a soldering iron, it was instantly engraved in Chen Sheng's memory.
This flow of information was so huge that for a moment he felt like his brain was about to burst.
Fortunately,
Chen Sheng is already familiar with the experience of upgrading skills.
Although it cannot be said that it has no impact, it is not as unbearable as before.
"Ho--"
Chen Sheng's eyes were bloodshot and he was breathing heavily.
The two fists were clenched tightly, making constant crunching sounds.
Thick green veins popped up on the surface of the body, entangled all over the body like old tree roots.
Thousands of exercises compressed into a very short time.
Chen Sheng's muscles were trembling crazily, squirming under his skin as if they were alive.
Strong sensory abilities.
Chen Sheng could clearly feel it.
Every second, every muscle fiber in his body is being repeatedly beaten and destroyed.
Then be reborn in a stronger form.
In this extreme pain.
Chen Sheng could feel his body getting stronger every minute.
Crash--
The sound of surging water kept ringing in my ears.
It's not just the river in front of Chen Sheng.
Instead, for several kilometers around him, it seemed as if all the water currents were cheering for joy, congratulating Chen Sheng for his improvement in strength.
He felt it clearly.
My affinity for the water spirit is constantly increasing.
He looked up.
Look at the river in front of you.
The next second.
Chen Sheng's eyes moved.
After a brief delay.
The originally slowly flowing river water immediately stagnated, and squirmed towards the river bank as if it had life.
Until he touched Chen Sheng's body.
It then continued to climb up along his ankles until it covered Chen Sheng's body.
Being enveloped by the water flow, Chen Sheng instantly felt that his body had strengthened by more than half.
Even the pain caused by the body's transformation seemed to be alleviated a lot.
Time passed slowly.
Two hours later.
Wow——
The water was scattered all over the place.
"call--"
Chen Sheng took a long breath and slowly stood up from the ground.
The crackling sound, like fried beans, came from all over his body.
Lift your arms.
After this upgrade, his body has not changed much.
The arms are slender and white, and the outline of the muscles is only faintly visible.
But looking at the arm that seems to be extremely weak.
Joy flashed across Chen Sheng's eyes.
Only he himself knows.
What kind of terrifying power does his ordinary appearance hide?
The fourth level of Xuanming Zhenwu once again raised Chen Sheng's strength to a new level.
Call up the panel.
【Chen Sheng】
【Power: 421】
[Agility: 433]
【Physique: 438】
[Skill column: Xuanming Zhenwu lv4:0/1000]
[Skill points: 171]
The attributes increased by 50 points across the board, successfully breaking through the 400-point mark.
This is only second.
in this upgrade.
What pleased Chen Sheng the most was the change in Xuanming Zhenwu's ability.
Not only the hitting force and shock resistance ability that the tortoise shell texture can withstand has been greatly improved.
Even the affinity and range for the water spirit have been raised to a limit.
With Chen Sheng's current state.
He can mobilize water spirits within a kilometer and call them to do various things.
For example, like before, the water flow automatically covered Chen Sheng's body, blessing his attributes and adding defense.
It can even collect all the water in the river onto the shore, completely changing the environment.
Water will provide assistance to Chen Sheng.
and will increase resistance for his enemies.
now,
Chen Sheng could feel that his affinity for the water spirit seemed to have reached a critical point.
He was just a little short of breaking that critical point.
Maybe then,
His affinity for the water spirit allows him to completely transform.
become,
authority!
Only when he truly has authority, can Chen Sheng be able to control the water flow like an arm and a finger, and greatly enhance his combat ability.
but,
That might be a matter of breaking through to the fifth level.
Chen Sheng temporarily put it behind him and began to focus on the biggest improvement of this upgrade.
Xuanwu changes.
The Xuanwu transformation at the third level, the ultimate state, can directly increase Chen Sheng's strength attribute by two and a half times.
And this improvement includes other bonuses.
It can be said to be Chen Sheng's most powerful ability today.
And now,
In the ultimate state,
The power multiplier that Chen Sheng can increase is five times!
It seems to only double the effect.
But combined with Chen Sheng's terrifying basic attributes, as well as the water flow bonus and thunder bonus that can be mobilized at any time.
How strong will it be?
Chen Sheng was even a little unimaginable.
He decided to give it a try.
Think of this.
Chen Sheng slowly closed his eyes.
Xuanwu transformation·limit state.
Turn on!
The next second,
Uh-huh!
Chen Sheng's eyes suddenly opened.
His eyes turned extremely scarlet in an instant.
It was as if there was a bomb detonating inside the body.
Click-click!
The cracking sound of bones colliding with each other continued to explode.
His body keeps getting taller.
The muscles on the body surface continued to expand, making the originally loose clothes become tight in an instant.
Tear--
No surprises at all.
The clothes around him were instantly burst and turned into strips of cloth hanging on his body.
The originally fair skin gradually turned towards black and blue.
The muscles glowed with a metallic luster and turned into pieces of nail plates piled on the surface of the body.
Veins climbed up his neck, making Chen Sheng's appearance even more ferocious and terrifying.
above the panel.
The strength attribute jumps rapidly.
five hundred.
seven hundred.
Eight hundred.
one thousand!
Just a blink of an eye.
The strength attribute has more than doubled, reaching the previous limit state.
But the rate of increase has not slowed down at all.
One thousand and three.
One thousand and five.
two thousand!
Fully, five times!
boom! boom! boom!
Chen Sheng's body.
The sound of heartbeats, like thunderous explosions, continued to be heard, echoing throughout the mountains.
The terrifying coercion, like a prehistoric evil beast, continues to spread towards the surroundings.
in the surrounding forest.
All the sounds that were originally filled were wiped out in an instant.
The birds became stiff and fell from the trees one after another.
Facing the terrifying pressure, they didn't even have the courage to flap their wings and escape, and could only let their bodies fall to the ground.
The performance of the surrounding beasts was not much better.
They used to roam, forage, or hunt.
but now,
They all lay on the ground, with their heads facing the direction of Chen Sheng.
as if,
It is worshiping the birth of the king.
river bank.
Chen Sheng, who was covered in black and blue muscle armor, stood quietly on the spot.
Rumble——
It's just an action of raising your hand.
There were bursts of roaring sounds in the air.
Chen Sheng looked at his arm.
Today he
The forearms alone are as thick as normal thighs.
Coupled with the black and blue muscle armor, and the azure blue textures engraved on the surface of the armor that are constantly flowing.
Even without seeing the whole picture.
Chen Sheng could imagine how terrifying his current image was.
"call--"
"suck--"
Just simply breathe.
It directly formed a terrifying whirlwind that swept through the surrounding area.
The trunks, branches and leaves of a large number of trees continued to rotate around Chen Sheng's body and rose into the sky.
Two thousand one hundred and five.
This is Chen Sheng's power attribute in the extreme state of Xuanwu Transformation.
It was a terrifying value that he had never dared to imagine before.
Think of this.
Chen Sheng raised his head.
The blood-colored pupils turned slowly.
He looked towards the end of his sight, a small hilltop deep in the mountains.
Knees slightly bent.
boom! ! !
Endless smoke and dust rose up, instantly covering the ground along the river bank.
The ground collapsed instantly, turning into a circular pit with a diameter of tens of meters.
call out--
Screams echoed over the mountains.
The huge body rose from the ground, turning into a black line in the air and shooting toward the mountain.
In mid-air.
Chen Sheng raised his arm.
on his face,
Wearing a wanton and arrogant smile.
The next second.
A huge black and blue fist.
Directly bombarded the mountain.
Boom boom boom! !
The earth shook.
It's like the sky is about to fall.
A large amount of gravel fell from the sky, making holes one after another on the ground around the mountain peak.
Countless beasts fled in all directions, avoiding the apocalyptic scene.
Chen Sheng's body passed through the mountain without any obstruction and fell directly into the dense forest.
Among the fallen trees.
The huge body slowly stood up.
Chen Sheng looked back.
One punch.
Nearly a quarter of the mountain peak, which was hundreds of meters high, was cut off.
This,
It was just Chen Sheng who simply activated the power of Xuanwu Transformation.
If combined with the blessing of water flow and thunder.
His strength will rise again.
Chen Sheng now.
If we face Zhao Zhenfeng and Zun Lao's clone again.
Even with just strength, I am afraid that these two people can be beaten into dust in the air in an instant.
"Hahahahaha!!!"
Feel the surging power in your body.
Chen Sheng laughed wildly.
In his eyes, murderous intent surged like a stormy sea.
not enough.
This is not enough.
He wants to become stronger.
Strong enough to crush all enemies to death.
——
outside the mountains.
It was about a few kilometers away from where Chen Sheng was.
"what happened?"
Chen Danggui and his daughter, who were collecting herbs, were standing in the woods, looking towards the depths of the mountains.
"Is it thunder?"
Listen to the faint roar coming from the depths.
Father Chen looked up at the sky with confusion on his face.
Chen Danggui, on the other hand, clutched her father's trousers and looked nervously into the depths of the mountain.
"Dad, let's go home."
Her hearing is unusual.
She could only hear a rough idea of what Chen Sheng was making.
What really made Chen Danggui nervous was the large number of footsteps coming from deep in the mountains.
Those voices were immediately obvious to be non-human.
It seems like an animal in the mountains, trying to escape from some terrifying existence.
"Fine."
"Anyway, today's harvest is about the same."
Looking at the herbs in the bamboo basket, Father Chen pondered for a moment and decided to go down the mountain first.
The most important thing to survive in the mountains is to be alert to all abnormal situations.
Anyway, he went to the mountains to collect herbs, which was just a pastime in his spare time, and he did not rely on it to make a living.
Moreover,
Father Chen is also aware of his daughter's keen senses.
Otherwise, he would not have taken the other party to the mountains to collect medicine.
Seeing that his daughter looked uncomfortable, he nodded in agreement.
"Your mother probably hasn't started cooking yet."
"I'll go and tell her if she can make your favorite fried pork slices."
In order to ease his daughter's mood, Father Chen took Chen Angelica's little hand and said while walking down the mountain.
Although Chen Danggui is a Qi sensor.
But after all, it is the nature of a child.
As soon as I heard there was something delicious, the tension in my heart instantly dissipated.
His eyes shone brightly and he nodded emphatically.
"Um!"
"hurry up!"
She shook off Father Chen's hand and trotted down the mountain at a speed that was not inferior to that of an adult.
It seems that he is afraid that if he goes back too late, the fried pork slices will disappear.
Ever since.
The medicinal-gathering trip was interrupted halfway through.
"Run slower, don't fall!"
In Chen Angelica's silver bell-like laughter and Chen's father's shouts.
The father and daughter soon returned to the village.
The little incident just now was quickly forgotten by the two of them.
——
"Tsk."
End of test.
Chen Sheng, who had returned to normal shape, returned to the river bank again.
In less than a minute.
The strength dropped from more than 2,000 points to more than 400 points.
The feeling of weakness caused by this strong contrast made Chen Sheng frown and feel extremely uncomfortable.
Plop.
Just came to the fire.
Chen Sheng didn't care about his image at all, he just spread his limbs and lay on the ground.
"call--"
Feel the warm winter sun shining on your body and the tight muscles gradually relaxing.
The feeling of weakness that made him extremely uncomfortable gradually faded away.
Instead, there was a sense of comfort.
And a little sleepy.
The extreme state of Xuanwu Transformation is indeed powerful.
However,
Even if he only entered for a few seconds, it consumed most of Chen Sheng's physical strength and energy.
"Uh-huh——"
Chen Sheng yawned.
He decided to take a nap for thirty minutes to allow his muscles to recover to their best condition.
but,
He didn't intend to waste these thirty minutes of free time.
He got up, picked up the iron pot, and went to the lake to fill it with water.
Light the fire and throw the elixir into it.
soon,
In the crackling sound of dry firewood and the gurgling sound of boiling water.
Chen Sheng slowly closed his eyes.
