Bai Pu furrowed his brows.
Everyone said so, indicating that Bai Pu’s perception had indeed deviated from that of others.
"Is it the technique of that Xilou... silently dragging into another secret space?"
Bai Pu frowned in thought, then dismissed the idea, "No, if I were really dragged into a secret space, he wouldn’t have to worry about being detected and would undoubtedly use tools like combat shackles to try and kill ."
"Then there are two other possibilities... The first is that my teammates’ perceptions were ’confused’ without sound or warning; clearly, Xilou and I were right next to them, but they were completely unaware."
"The second is that Xilou and I have both entered so high-priority stealth state... my perception isn’t enough to receive a prompt from the Spirit Realm Will."
Bai Pu let out a breath.
He didn’t know Xilou’s status in the Star-Picking Tower, but just the technique revealed today made him feel extrely alard.
Bai Pu had persecution paranoia, always thinking soone was out to harm him, maintaining considerable vigilance towards strangers from the outside world.
Not to ntion the giant entity that was the Superstar Alliance, which was already an enemy.
"I must beco stronger quickly!"
Bai Pu murmured to himself.
For the safety of himself and his teammates, Bai Pu explained the whole situation regarding Xilou’s appearance to them.
"Maybe you should return first, while I stay in the Western Capital for a while," Bai Pu said. If he went back with his teammates, they might be ambushed by the Star-Picking Tower on the way, implicating his companions.
"No way, we ca together, we’ll leave together,"
Teacher Cai Cai said, patting her chest, "No matter how powerful the Superstar Alliance is, our school isn’t afraid! I’ll make a call right now."
Old Principal Cai Xiang, upon learning about these events, took it very seriously and personally reported it to the "Regional Committee" of the Jiangnan Region.
The committee in the Jiangnan Region had already learned about Xicheng University of Technology’s victory in the University Competition and imdiately dispatched a team of advanced Awakened, represented by Officer Xiang Yinghua, to escort the Xili Institute of Technology team back ho in triumph.
The auction of the Holy Artifact was scheduled in a week’s ti, taking place in the Boundary Land. Thus, Bai Pu’s leaving the Western Capital wouldn’t affect his transactions with Fenghuo and other preparatory voters.
With the military experts’ escort, the Xili Institute of Technology team left the Western Capital and returned to the Jiangnan Region.
...
Once back, Bai Pu first visited the Special Service Bureau and used his A-level Special Service Officer privileges to apply for a Spiritual Liquid imrsion, thoroughly repairing the internal injuries accumulated in his body over ti.
After completing the imrsion, Bai Pu imdiately used his University Competition championship reward: Spiritual Energy Infusion.
Dense milky-white mist drilled into Bai Pu’s pores.
Bai Pu felt a lazy, indescribable comfort throughout his body.
However, this comfort quickly disappeared, replaced by intense heat circulating throughout his body.
This heat was reminiscent of his initial fusion of Source Blood, a sensation beyond words.
Fortunately, Bai Pu’s tolerance for pain had evolved drastically. He endured the process of Spiritual Energy Infusion without uttering a word.
[You have undergone Spiritual Energy Infusion. Your basic attributes have improved.]
[Your Basic Power 3.]
[Your Basic Agility 7.]
[Your Basic Endurance 2.]
[Your Basic Spirit 12.]
Bai Pu felt a sense of well-being, having his basic attributes increase by 24 points in total! It was almost equivalent to progressing two levels in terms of attribute growth.
basic attribute points were even more impressive than the 20 attribute points celebrated among top scorers.
However, since the Spiritual Energy Infusion provided random attributes, most of the energy during enhancent went towards raising the lower shortfall attributes, naly Agility and Spirit.
The value, compared to Free Attribute Points, would naturally be sowhat discounted.
Another piece of good news was that, with Bai Pu’s consistent Pure Blood infusion, the clay tablet inscribed with the Rune Characters was finally fully charged.
[Charged Divine Rune: Special item, use it to unlock the second layer of the Heart of Evolution Talent Tree.]
The Spirit Realm Will’s prompt was succinct.
Bai Pu placed his palm on the clay tablet, receiving the query whether to use it, and he opted for ’Yes.’
At once, Bai Pu’s heartbeat quickened, an intense Blood River Fighting Qi injecting into the clay tablet!
The Divine Rune on the tablet shone brightly, converging into a stream of mystical character-laden information rushing into Bai Pu’s body, straight to his heart!
Boom!
Bai Pu’s heart felt hamred, seeing bursts of gold stars and experiencing a dizzying blackness. If not for his formidable Endurance, he might have fainted outright.
The clay tablet crumbled, disintegrating like dry wind.
Bai Pu received further indications from the Spirit Realm Will:
[You used the charged Divine Rune. Your Heart of Evolution Talent Tree’s second layer is unlocked.]
[Each enhancent option in the Heart of Evolution Talent Tree’s second layer requires 3 Legend Points to activate.]
[A: Dual Evolution: Allows you to enable two Adaptive Evolution states simultaneously and grants Mimic Enhancent after activation. (Not Activated)]
[B: Source Lord’s Descent: Increases your Source Blood Point limit by 1, Pure Blood Point limit by 3. All of your Source Blood Apostles and Pure Blood Servants can join your Mind Connection, allowing consciousness communication within your Heart Image. Grants you the Talent Skill: Descent. (Not Activated)]
[C: Enhanced ditation: When you conduct combat training using the Genetic Heart Image, Combat Skills and Mystical Arts proficiency will synchronize into reality. (Not Activated)]
The options in the second layer far surpassed those of the first layer.
The easiest to understand is option C: Enhanced ditation.
Bai Pu recalled the Original Sin World, where the Suffering Ceremony hosted by Bishop Yajino could cultivate Skill Proficiency.
But once Enhanced ditation is illuminated, Bai Pu can cultivate skills in ditation, even those in Mystical Arts! It supersedes the Suffering Ceremony’s effect!
Bai Pu could also envision the effects of the other two options.
Option A further enhances Adaptive Evolution, allowing the use of two evolution states simultaneously.
As for the Mimic Enhancent Effect, it might provide attribute or secondary attribute bonuses in certain enhanced states, like gaining fire damage bonuses in the lt Fire Body state? But this is just speculation.
Option B: Source Lord’s Descent is the most intriguing—it’s like opening a chat group? Bai Pu as the group owner, with mbers consisting of Source Blood Apostles and Pure Blood Servants—holding strategic significance.
The "Descent" skill Bai Pu stands to gain was worth investigating.
As Bai Pu’s current rank was Lieutenant, the Spirit Realm Will granted a sowhat positive response.
[Descent: Your servants can expend sacrifices to locate and request your descent. If you respond to their call, you will temporarily descend upon the target Plane World, with duration correlated to the energy level of the sacrifices.]
