Chapter 375: Chapter 306: The Bizarre Charming Beast! The Bizarre World!_1
“LV79… am I still not strong enough?”
Zheng Cheng opened his personal attribute panel and looked at his impressive stats: 630 points in Physique, 280 in Power, 408 in Agility, and 625 in Spiritual Attribute, he still shook his head.
“The total attribute points are 1943, and that’s after I added the three levels I’ve just gained to my Spiritual Attribute points.”
“Nearly two thousand base attribute points, normally more than the combined total of two LV100 Nine Star Professionists.”
“But!”
Zheng Cheng said, “The enemies I’m facing now are the powerful members of the Cave Beastmen Tribe, including LV69 and even LV79 Professionists.”
“Some have strange racial talents, some have lived for dozens of years and definitely possess powerful Props, while others might have pets or servants to assist them.”
“And I… only have these sub-two-thousand attribute points!”
Zheng Cheng gritted his teeth and glanced at the Realm Breaking Task.
The Realm Breaking Task already showed complete, and as soon as he submitted it, he could immediately rise to LV40.
Plus, he would be able to learn two new skills.
However, Soul Power was still increasing by the moment. If he submitted now, the Soul Power of the Cave Beastmen killed by the Rabies Virus would still increase.
But it would lower the evaluation of this Realm Breaking Task, and the profession skills gained wouldn’t be very strong.
“Forget it, I won’t submit it yet. I’ll wait until the Soul Power stops increasing or when I encounter danger,” he decided.
“Another thing…”
Zheng Cheng eyed the Space Ring, which still contained over thirty Special Ingredients dissected from the corpses of Hyena Men, Jackal Werewolves, Spiderfolk, and Bat-men.
Feasting on these Special Ingredients could also enhance some of his strength.
Unfortunately, the Special Ingredients all had abilities similar to Reincarnation tools, and eating them had a very small chance of transforming him into the corresponding mutant race’s bloodline.
For Zheng Cheng, the risk outweighed the benefits.
He took a deep breath and shook his head, “No rush, let’s first scout the surrounding environment…”
The Central Radar Life Monitoring Technique was activated, and within a three-kilometer radius, there was not the slightest trace of life.
There was no sign of the Monsters of the Spirit Charm Blessed Land, nor any other humans or Cave Beastmen.
“No one around? I heard Captain Xu Qingfeng’s call earlier, instructing us to meet at the highest building…”
Zheng Cheng’s gaze turned toward a distant mountain.
Looking out, the mountain seemed to stand tall over the desolate plain, its elevation extreme, like a triangle rising in the distance.
“That mountain must be the highest point in this Spirit Charm Blessed Land.”
Just then, a thick black-gray mist suddenly appeared around his body, forming the gaping maw of a massive beast that swiftly engulfed his entire figure.
The next second!
Zheng Cheng’s figure flashed dramatically, dodging the attack.
“Wuu wuu wuu…”
The huge Monster, as if devoid of intelligence, just paused.
Then it opened its mouth wide and furiously spat toward Zheng Cheng.
“Boom… huff!”
A cold, sinister black flame burst forth from the Monster’s mouth, cascading down like a waterfall and instantly enveloping Zheng Cheng’s figure.
Within the black flames—
Nine immense cyan shields suddenly appeared around Zheng Cheng, keeping the black flames at bay.
Nether Shield!
But to his surprise, the cyan light of the Nether Shield, which was protecting him, began to darken at a rate visible to the naked eye, as if it was being assimilated by the external black flames.
The entire Nether Shield had turned half cyan, half black, eerily strange.
“A strange flame with assimilation ability?”
Zheng Cheng frowned.
The next second.
The Nether Shield that was protecting him, suddenly turned blue!
Penicillin Parasite Body Shield!
Under Zheng Cheng’s mental control, it became a blue flame that burned unceasingly.
Seizing the moment of the black mist Monster’s confusion, he swung Shura’s Dual Blades violently, easily slicing a huge wound on the Monster’s body with the aid of his powerful strength.
Thick black flames slowly oozed out from the wound.
“What kind of Monster is this?”
“Black mist in form, can change shape, but has blood…”
Zheng Cheng took a deep breath. The Monster before him twisted like a swirling black mist, one moment taking the form of a huge tiger and the next turning into a wild wolf, as if constantly changing.
He moved quickly, pointing his right hand toward the Monster.
Blood Burning Technique!
The bizarre energy entered its body and vanished without a trace, as if dropping into the ocean.
“Wuu wuu wuu… Boom!”
The blood of the huge dark silhouette began to burn violently, quickly spreading throughout its body.
The massive figure writhed, and from a distance, it resembled a giant black tornado!
“Roar!”
“Awooo!”
The black beast let out a piercing roar.
Two huge hands made entirely of black mist swept around violently.
The black flames that had been burning along its body suddenly vanished.
“Blood Burning Technique is effective! But it’s limited… If the blood inside has been burnt away, how is it still alive?”
“What kind of Monster is this?”
Zheng Cheng focused intently, his gaze fixed on the beast.
He immediately activated his Central Radar Life Monitoring ability.
[Name: Charming Beast]
[Level: LV69]

[Power: ???]

[Skills: Spirit Charm Fire, ????]
[Description: A member of the Charm Clan, after the Spirit Charm Emperor was abandoned by Heavenly Dao, the Charm Clan people were trapped in the Spirit Charm Blessed Land, and ultimately the entire clan was eradicated. With overwhelming rage and resentment, they transformed into half-spiritual, half-undead creatures. They have no consciousness, merely acting on instinct to protect their clan’s Blessed Land, slaying all foreign life forms.]
“Charm Clan people? Half-spiritual, half-undead creatures?”
Zheng Cheng’s heart was somewhat surprised, and his face even more bizarre.
“There are still members of the Charm Clan? Is this a race? I wonder if there are any Huawei, Apple…”
According to the description, this black behemoth was actually a member of a clan called the Charm Clan, who became an undead creature after death.
The reason for this was because of a special talent.
“The ability to assimilate elemental energy must be this flame called Spirit Charm Fire.”
“Wait a minute… Undead creatures!”
Zheng Cheng’s eyes suddenly brightened, and his figure stepped back again, dodging the attack of the black mist creature.
At the same time, he raised his Wand of Myriad Blossoms, and a strange fluctuation fell upon him once more.
Ethereal Fire Incinerates Body!
“Sss…”
A strange sound arose.
On the body of the Charming Beast, a nearly transparent flame suddenly ignited, quickly rushing toward other parts of its body.
The mysterious black aura that constituted its body was dissipating at a visible rate.
“Roar!”
“Roar Roar!!”
Feeling an abnormal sensation in its heart, the Charming Beast suddenly let out an angry roar.
Its massive body began to shake violently, sending waves surging in all directions.
But,
The more violently it reacted, the more it intensified the burning of the Ethereal Fire Incinerates Body technique!
Whether it’s Charming Beasts, Netherworld specters, Evil Ghosts, or other zombie puppets, resentful spirits, and the like, if they want to transform into undead creatures, there is one prerequisite condition.
Resentment!
Only when a creature suffers inhuman torture before death, or faces great injustice, or experiences intense surges of emotion such as joy, sorrow, anger, or grief, might it attract spirits of ghosts and netherworld energy to possess it, thereby transforming into an undead creature.
That is to say, all undead creatures inherently carry intensely rich emotions in their spirit.
Normal death, or dying of old age, or enlightened beings who see through everything at death, will not transform into undead creatures!
Joy, anger, sorrow, pleasure.
The stronger the spiritual fluctuations of a target, the greater the emotional changes, the angrier, sadder, or more terrified they are, the more powerful and ferocious the resulting Ethereal Fire will be, even more violent!
These emotions are the perfect fuel for Ethereal Fire!
This means,
Zheng Cheng’s Mutant Ability, Ethereal Fire Incinerates Body, can cause the Ethereal Fire to burn in all undead creatures!
And it scorches the soul!
It could be said that this Ethereal Fire Incinerates Body technique is the bane of all undead creatures!
“Boom!”
As the Charming Beast roared, the Ethereal Fire burning on its body sped up even more.
In just a few moments’ time, before it could charge forward, its huge body was burned to air by the illusory flames, then dissipated!
A large cluster of soul energy surged into Zheng Cheng’s body.
The Charming Beast was slain, but the strange thing was that its body disappeared, leaving only a large cloud of dust that vanished with it.
“The body disappeared? Or was it that just now what dissipated was the Charming Beast’s ashes?”
Zheng Cheng shook his head, he was still very interested in the monster of the Charming Beast, and wondered what could be discovered from dissecting its body.
Regrettably, its body had turned to ash, leaving no material for dissection.
Moreover, the Spirit Charm Fire that could assimilate other flames, he also wondered what kind of precious ability that was.
“According to the Charming Beast’s description, this should be a Miniature World originally belonging to their Charm Clan.”
“Because the Spirit Charm Emperor was eradicated by Heavenly Dao, the entire race was wiped out in time, and the Miniature World thus collapsed.”
“All the members of the Charm Clan who lived in this Miniature World were transformed into undead creatures. Although they were still part of the Charm Clan, they were simultaneously different…”
“It’s like the difference between Humans and Zombies, the undead…”
He had no clues about this Miniature World.
But seeing how eagerly the Cave Beastmen and Captain Xu Qingfeng and others yearned for this place, there certainly were many treasures to be found.
“What secrets does this world hold, after all…”
Zheng Cheng carefully surveyed the surrounding environment, this world had no plants or animals, not even the breath of life.
There was no water source, no wind.
What existed was only a scorch-blackened earth and mountains in the distance.
It looked, in every way, like a dead city.
Even the dust and gravel on the ground were utterly lifeless.
It was like…
The mess left after a fire.
Any matter had been burned to charcoal.
Even,
The surrounding air had no scent at all.
The entire world seemed only to have traces where that sole Charming Beast had appeared.
Even his Central Radar Life Monitoring Technique had only hinted at that Charming Beast’s sudden appearance for an instant.
Otherwise, he couldn’t possibly have reacted so quickly.
“An eerie world, an eerie Charming Beast. And…”
He looked up toward the distant mountains, his eyes flashing as he said, “The eerie Spirit Charm Emperor!”
