Chapter 930: Chapter 480: One Tiny Reward, One Little Secret
"What is this place?"
Li Ming immediately searched but did not find anyone else who had come before him.
He had prepared many excuses to explain why he appeared so late. As an S Level life form, he had more excuses available than others.
He crouched down, trying to touch the ground. Although it felt like metal, he couldn’t absorb any metal energy.
"Mimicry?" Li Ming stood up and tried to walk forward a few steps.
"Another Titan branch..." A gentle voice suddenly sounded, instantly putting Li Ming on alert.
Not far from him, a vague silhouette gradually condensed.
It was a woman, looking very delicate, with platinum patterns all over her skin.
"Who are you..." Li Ming asked calmly but was very vigilant.
"You can call me Star Spirit..." The other party’s voice was gentle, but her eyes were filled with scrutiny and curiosity. "Your potential is so low, yet your physiological age is not high. How did you become a Lord Level life form?"
The other party’s detection ability was so strong; Li Ming was quite surprised that she could even tell his physiological age.
"Star Spirit, I’m not sure if this place is..." He inquired tentatively.
"Yes, it’s just as you guessed." The Star Spirit’s figure scattered, and golden tassels passed through Li Ming’s body, suddenly appearing beside him. "You can think of this place as the last trace of the Holy Spirit Civilization."
She lowered her head, sniffing the scent on Li Ming, seemingly nostalgic. "Time buries everything; even the Titans have vanished."
"Alright, new era evolver, since you are here, the Holy Spirit Civilization has prepared a small reward for you. Are you ready?" The Star Spirit appeared before him again.
"Ah yes, and since you have Titan bloodline in your body, its effect might be even better."
"Reward? What reward?" Li Ming was puzzled, wanting to ask clearly.
But the Star Spirit didn’t intend to explain, merely pointed from a distance, and the entire hall became dazzling in an instant.
The lines on the ground all lit up, and Li Ming felt an invisible force coming from all directions.
He only felt the surrounding air suddenly become viscous, enveloping him,
Suffocating, heavy, and difficult to move, Li Ming’s breathing became heavy, and he felt his limbs and torso bound by an invisible force, each movement requiring great effort.
Of course, based on his own strength, he didn’t blindly use Controlled Objects to free himself from these shackles.
Subsequently, he could feel a gentle force slowly infiltrate his body, penetrating the skin, stimulating the cells.
In an instant, his bones trembled violently, large beads of sweat seeped from his forehead, cheeks, all over his body, mixed with energy particles.
Li Ming’s eyes were astonished, only feeling the cells in his body rapidly activating in an unprecedented manner, which stimulated his Genetic Seed to advance arduously yet solidly.
"Is this stimulating the Genetic Seed?" Li Ming was astonished, having never experienced something like this before.
Even faster than when his development rate was at its highest, by several times.
"What is this power?" Li Ming was shocked, feeling his whole body heat up.
This forced development brought intense stimulation, with his exhaled breath interwoven with various energy particles.
"Truly a peculiar evolution path... It resembles the Titan’s evolution path." Star Spirit lamented.
But she had already seen it before, shaking her head as she dissipated while looking at the figure before her.
Li Ming, utterly unaware, felt an impulsive thought burst in his heart amidst his highly active cells: could he overlay the Evolution System upon the Control System?
When this idea emerged, he hesitated a bit, but then gritted his teeth and switched.
Once the Evolution System was in place, as Li Ming anticipated, the over six hundred and thirty fold developmental rate buff mixed with the invisible force, like pouring fuel on a fire, got the highly active cells to completely boil.
In an instant, the capillaries beneath Li Ming’s skin ruptured, torrents of blood surged from his pores, the excruciating pain tore through his nerves.
The activity level of the cells in his body soared to an unprecedented degree, each cell going insane, as if wanting to break free from his body and tear apart his flesh.
Li Ming’s face twisted, a suppressed and extreme sound escaping from his throat, the immense pain and transformation within his body driving him close to madness, yet he still firmly suppressed his thoughts.
During this time, the three portions of X Level Source Material he had absorbed were called to use, for upgrading evolutionary source material.
At that instant, the seven hundred and forty fold development buff overlapped once more, intensifying the transformation.
Like a frenziedly howling engine, unleashing unprecedented power regardless of whether the vehicle could withstand it.
Crimson skin, like a paper ball wrapped in high-temperature flames, was at risk of tearing apart at any moment.
Meanwhile, Li Ming’s [Battlefield Doctor] profession played an essential role, converting 70% of the evolution buff into recovery blessings.
Allowing his body to oscillate between tearing and recovery, akin to a fire seed swaying in the wind, seemingly precarious yet always tenacious and resilient.
Bang!
The energy particles erupting from his body surged, flames, Thunder, quantum brilliance roaring without pause.
"Is this just 1%?"
Even amidst the extreme pain, Li Ming could still feel the genetic seed in his body making a firm step forward.
In just a few minutes, the development progress improved by 1%, with scarlet mist spewing from his nasal cavity, his throat squeezing out a hoarse yet firm shout: "Continue!"
