Every second felt like an eternity.
Tang Yong felt that the short minute in the past had become as long as an hour.
When Tang Yong saw that the value of his bone root had stopped increasing, he immediately turned his attention to the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms!
To be honest, this was the only way for him to temporarily ignore the pain because in the process of continuously releasing the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms, his proficiency had reached the second level of 500 (1000). As long as he released the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms 500 times, he could level up again!
The next level up would definitely double the power of the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms, and the corresponding consumption of battle qi would also double.
As the spiritual energy in his body continued to be consumed, Tang Yong no longer felt the sharp pain. The spiritual energy in his body seemed to be decreasing bit by bit.
However, the Chaos Spirit Fruit did not seem to have disappeared. It still existed in Tang Yong's body. After asking the system, he learned that after the Chaos Spirit Fruit was released, it turned into very small particles and hid in various parts of the body. In the future, it would need to be slowly refined to absorb it.
998!
Nine hundred and ninety nine!
1000!
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for" Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms "leveled up to the third level. The number of Golden Dragons released at a time has increased by 4, and the attack power has increased by 100%.
The next level up requires 10,000 proficiency points. "
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for" Nine Yang Divine Art "leveled up to the second level. The conversion speed of spiritual energy has increased by 100%. The next level up requires 1000 proficiency points."
"Nine Yang Divine Art" was different from "Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms". As long as the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms was used, it would count as one proficiency point. The Nine Yang Divine Art needed to complete a cycle to count as one proficiency point. Therefore, the Nine Yang Divine Art's god-level was slower.
Hard work paid off. After Tang Yong's continuous efforts, good news came one after another!
Tang Yong's "Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms" had leveled up!
This time, he could release four Golden Dragons at a time, and the consumption of spiritual energy had doubled compared to before. This was equivalent to having two Tang Yong working at the same time. The speed was much faster than before!
After a while, Tang Yong's body seemed to have reached a subtle balance. The spiritual energy in his body had been consumed, and only 20% or 30% of it had not been converted. It felt like he had just eaten, a little full, but it was bearable.
He had finally escaped from the shadow of death!
Tang Yong heaved a long sigh of relief and knelt on the ground in exhaustion. His arms were completely stiff and he could not even lift them up.
The pain in his eyes was unbearable. Originally, he should have had a good rest after coming back from the dead. However, Tang Yong really did not want to wait for a moment longer.
He wanted to drag the System out and give it a good beating. If it wasn't for the System, he wouldn't have had to suffer like this!
Tang Yong couldn't suppress his anger and roared, "System!
Get the hell out here!
Am I still your host?
Are you just going to watch me die from overeating? "
The System said, "Host, the Lucky Ring's duration hasn't ended yet. Your life won't be in danger."
Tang Yong: "This stupid lucky ring of yours … What?
You said the Lucky Ring's time isn't up yet? "
Tang Yong swallowed the curse words that were about to come out of his mouth. He asked in astonishment, "How is that possible?
Five minutes haven't passed yet?
It was no wonder that Tang Yong was shocked. When a person was in pain, they would always feel that time was moving slower than normal. The ancients even invented the idiom 'a day feels like a year'.
Tang Yong felt that at least two hours had passed, but in reality, when he glanced at the time on the Lucky Ring, only four minutes and seconds had passed.
This was simply … unbelievable.
Just as Tang Yong's face was filled with shock, the System said, "If a normal person consumes a top-grade spirit fruit like this, their mortality rate would be 100%. The reason why you're able to survive is because the Lucky Ring forcefully changed the mortality rate to 99.9%. You're the 0.1% that survived.
Otherwise, you would've died without a doubt! "
After a brief moment of shock, the anger in Tang Yong's heart did not subside. Instead, it burned even more fiercely. He really could not agree with the System's words. He was the one who risked his life to consume spiritual energy, but in the System's words, it was all the credit of the Lucky Ring. Haha, so everything he did just now was useless!
Tang Yong laughed, "Haha, I think the Lucky Ring is useless. If it's really that awesome, you can just let a demon kill itself in front of me, and I'll believe you!"
The System said, "Host, the so-called luck is only referring to events with low probability that happen frequently. The Lucky Ring can only change the probability, it can't do whatever you want."
Tang Yong scornfully pointed his middle finger. He had rested for a while and recovered a lot of his physical strength. In addition, the Nine Yang Divine Technique was still converting spiritual energy, so his body was full of energy in a short while.
After picking himself up from the ground, Tang Yong shook off the mud on his body. Raising his head, he found that he was in a deep pit. Undoubtedly, he was the one who had dug this pit. Tang Yong could still sense his berserk battle qi in the mud around the pit.
At this moment, in the forest not far away, a perfect Rank 5 demon beast, the Multicolored Giant Python, had just finished a perfect hunt. It swallowed a Rank 4 Amethyst Tiger that was about the same size as itself into its stomach. It twisted its huge body in satisfaction and was about to return to its cave to rest. However, it did not expect that a long thorn on the Amethyst Tiger's back would suddenly be stuck in its throat.
The Multicolored Giant Python twisted its body and tried to spit out the thorn, but it did not expect the thorn to go deeper and deeper into its throat as it twisted. The Multicolored Giant Python was stunned. It had devoured at least fifty Amethyst Tigers, if not a hundred. Such a strange thing had never happened before.
It was a Rank 5 demon beast, but its body was pierced by a low-level demon beast's thorn, and it was a f * cking corpse!
No one would believe it if it was told!
The Multicolored Giant Python did not dare to stay on the road. It quickly swam back to its cave. Because its speed was much faster than usual, it did not notice that there was a deep pit on the flat road home!
Just as the Multicolored Giant Python was swimming quickly, it suddenly felt that the ground beneath its body was empty. Its body sank down. Coincidentally, the place where it sank was where the thorn on its back was stuck. Pfft!
This pause allowed the thorn to pierce through it. The Multicolored Giant Python screamed in anger, and its entire body froze there.
It was not that it did not want to move, but after the thorn pierced through its body, it was stuck in the hole. No matter if it moved forward or backward, the thorn would be able to split it open!
"Aiyo, why am I so unlucky today!"
Just as the Multicolored Giant Python was in a dilemma, it suddenly felt the aura of a human warrior in the deep pit below. It was immediately pleasantly surprised. It could not deal with a human powerhouse above the Martial Spirit Realm, but it was more than enough to deal with a Martial Master.
It immediately ordered Tang Yong, "Human down there, help me pull out this thorn immediately, or I'll eat you!"
"Don't use those crooked thoughts. I'm a Rank 5 perfect demon beast. Even if I don't use my physical strength, I can still kill you a hundred times with my demonic arts!"
Hehe, this python did not take him seriously at all. It was clearly asking for his help, but it kept saying that it would eat him. If he did not help, it would teach him a lesson!
How was this the attitude of a beggar?
Tang Yong's temper also rose. He shouted, "If you're so awesome, why don't you pull it out yourself!
You want to kill me a hundred times? If you have the ability, do it yourself! "
After that, he raised his hand and used the upgraded version of the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms. Four Golden Dragons as thick as arms collided with the python's body with a bang.
The Giant Python's body trembled, and the thorn stabbed deeper.
He roared, "Human, you're courting death!!"
However, before the Giant Python finished speaking, a huge tree beside him actually broke from the roots with a kacha sound. A wind blade blew past. It was not known which demon beast had casually released a wind blade. Coincidentally, it cut off the huge tree and even hit the Giant Python's body.
The wind blade was very fierce. With a swoosh, it directly cut the Giant Python into two parts. Accompanied by a wail, the fallen huge tree fell on its head with a "dong"!
"Ouch, it hurts!
I'm going to die, I'm going to die! "
"Who the hell released the wind blade!"
"Damn it, I, a Rank 5 demon beast, actually died in an accident. If this were to spread, who would believe it, who would believe it!"
The Multicolored Giant Python looked at its tail that had been cut off, and then looked at the huge tree that was pressing on its body. It only felt so sullen that it wanted to die.
"From the Multicolored Giant Python's distress + 1000 …"
Finally, the Multicolored Giant Python's huge snake body twisted a few times, and its huge eyes gradually lost their luster.
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for killing a Rank 5 perfect demon beast, Multicolored Giant Python. The reward is 3500 experience points."
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for killing a monster of a higher level. The experience points are doubled. The reward is 7000 experience points."
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining an Intermediate Lottery Gift Bag."
