Chapter 28: Evolution Mission

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

[Evolution Mission: Devour the Black Dragon King’s bones (0/10)]

Evolution mission!

Upon seeing this, Qi Chen was delighted.

The evolution mission was finally activated!

Not only the mission, but the skill option on the status was also flashing.

Qi Chen opened it and saw that two new skill icons had been lit up!

This made his eyes light up!

[Skill 3: Summon Heavenly Thunder, Proficiency 0/1000 (After proficiency reaches 1000, it can be upgraded to Thunder Qilin)]

[Skill 4: Yellow Flash, Proficiency 0/1000 (After proficiency reaches 1000, it can be upgraded to Golden Flash)]

These two new skills made Qi Chen very satisfied.

Although Shadow Kill was very powerful, it was only a close combat skill.

Shadow Kill would be useless against enemies who could use long-range attacks.

Summon Heavenly Thunder made up for Qi Chen’s weakness in long-range attacks.

Yellow Flash was a movement skill.

After activation, he could move quickly three times.

What was worth mentioning was that the usage of Summon Heavenly Thunder and Yellow Flash both consumed spiritual energy.

Spiritual energy was a type of energy that cultivators would only begin to absorb from the surroundings after reaching level ten of the first realm.

Thanks to the refinement of his body in the previous mystic realm, Qi Chen now had a full 100 points of spiritual energy.

This was a rather impressive number!

If humans or demon beasts did not have any fortuitous encounters, when they reached level ten, their initial spiritual energy would only be around 10 to 50 points.

Qi Chen, on the other hand, had 100 points.

Summon Heavenly Thunder consumed 10 points of spiritual energy.

While Yellow Flash consumed 5 points.

These two skills had no cooldown time. As long as one had spirit energy, they could be used unlimitedly.

Can’t I just blow everything up like this?

Qi Chen thought happily.

At the same time, he noticed a jade pendant lying beside him.

Just as he picked it up, a thought came from the jade pendant.

After reading it, Qi Chen realized that this jade pendant was the storage space that the Black Dragon King had given him.

In the jade pendant, a huge Nine Reincarnations Soul Returning Flower laid there quietly.

Qi Chen was deeply moved.

The Black Dragon King had already helped him many times intentionally or otherwise.

Qi Chen was naturally not a heartless egg. He would naturally take Black Dragon King’s request to heart and treat it as the most important matter on this trip to the mystic realm.

Thinking of this, Qi Chen decisively took out the Nine Reincarnations Soul Returning Flower.

The moment the Soul Returning Flower left the storage space, a strange fragrance that could shake one’s spirit spread from the petals.

Qi Chen only took a single breath and felt that his mind was extremely clear.

When Qi Chen took out the Soul Returning Flower.

Many trial-takers in the same mystic realm also sensed this smell.

The appearance of the Soul Returning Flower caused its fragrance to spread for thousands of miles.

“This is… the Nine Reincarnations Soul Returning Flower! That egg demon is also in this mystic realm!”

A woman’s heart skipped a beat when she smelled the aroma.

Qi Chen’s actions were broadcasted in the previous mystic realm, so this woman naturally saw it too.

She did not expect to meet Qi Chen in this mystic realm.

Although this mystic realm suppressed the strength of the trial-takers to the First Realm, she, who was originally at level-five of the Second Realm, could be said to be full of confidence.

The woman was completely confident that she could suppress Qi Chen at the same cultivation level!

Nine Reincarnations Soul Returning Flower! I’m coming!

Many trial-takers had this thought.

Even though the Soul Returning Flower was a treasure, it was not as rare as one could imagine.

What was rare was the Nine Reincarnations Soul Returning Flower.

In this mystic realm, other than searching for treasures, the trial-takers were fully focused as they paid attention to their surroundings.

The moment they discovered the egg demon, they would rush up and finish him off!

“Enough.”

Qi Chen took out the Soul Returning Flower for a few seconds before putting it away.

According to Black Dragon King, the Nine Reincarnations Soul Returning Flower would leave a mark on his body.

Those Kingdom of Heaven believers who had been heavily corrupted would find him based on this mark.

The mark lasted for an hour.

Now, I just have to wait for them to find me.

Qi Chen also began his treasure hunting journey in this mystic realm.

[Prompt: One thousand two hundred meters ahead, one level-ten (Second Realm Level Three) demon beast has appeared!]

[Prompt: One thousand two hundred meters ahead, one level-ten (Second Realm Level Four) mutated beast has appeared!]

“Oh?”

Qi Chen’s eyes lit up. The system seemed to have changed again.

The prefix in the brackets should be the opponents’ true strength!

He did not hesitate and immediately crept forward. He wanted to see what kind of dispute this human and beast had.

“Human, this Scarlet Refinement Fruit is useless to you. Why must you fight with me over it?”

A snake demon with the head of a snake, the body of a human, and the tail of a snake questioned the human male cultivator standing not far away from him with a cold expression.

“How can a snake demon like you know if it’s useful or not?”

The man held a three-feet long mechanical sword in his hand and smiled. “This Scarlet Refinement Fruit is sure to be mine today!”

“Hmph! There’s no point in talking! Let’s fight!”

Killing intent bloomed in the snake demon’s eyes as it transformed into an apparition that charged at that Daoist.

The Daoist raised his sword to meet the attack.

Both sides exchanged blows, and it was impossible to determine the victor in a short period of time. The shockwaves from the battle wreaked havoc in the forest.

Qi Chen widened his eyes and watched the battle seriously.

Even though both sides of the battle were only at the level ten of the First Realm, their true strength was actually at the Second Realm.

Compared to the First Realm where most people relied on their physical body to fight, the cultivators at the Second Realm relied on their spiritual energy.

The mechanical sword in the Daoist’s hand was flickering with sharpness. Every time he attacked, small waves of sword energy would be released.

Although the sword energy would dissipate a meter away from the sword, the snake demon did not dare to take it head-on.

Similarly, the Daoist was also very fearful of the ghastly green claws in the snake demon’s hands.

Both sides were in a deadlock.

[Warning! One thousand two hundred meters behind, three unknown creatures have appeared!]

They’re here!

Qi Chen’s heart stirred.

Only when Kingdom of Heaven believers came knocking would the system change from a prompt to a warning.

Qi Chen wasn’t in a hurry to attack.

He quietly went around the two and hid on the other side.

This way, if the believers of the Kingdom of Heaven wanted to find him, they would definitely have to face these two experts of the Second Realm.

Qi Chen did this mainly because he wanted to see if the experts of the Second Realm, which had their powers suppressed, could deal with a small number of believers without the help of the Soul Returning Flower.

A minute later,the highly decomposed believers of the Kingdom of Heaven appeared.

The moment the Daoist and the snake demon saw the three Kingdom of Heaven believers, their expressions changed drastically.

“Damn you Mechanical Dao Sect! How dare you summon such a thing!”

“Don’t you slander us, snake demon! How can our Mechanical Dao Sect be associated with such a filthy thing!”

The Daoist and the snake demon looked at each other and made a decision.

“Let’s work together and get rid of this filthy thing first before deciding our victory!”

“Alright!”
