Chapter 156: Touching the Extreme Value, Unleashed! (3k Second Update)

In Shanty Town E-qu, beside a stall that was originally obscure, a sensation was stirred up once again.

It was not because some rare treasure had appeared at this stall, but because the Reincarnators who had appeared here were all renowned.

They belonged to the category most frequently mentioned among the vast number of low-to-mid-tier Reincarnators.

Once, in the East District, the three most prominent low-tier teams—【9527】, 【Garou Legend】, and 【Fifth Element】—each established their teams based on three different philosophies, and all achieved fruitful results while at the first level of power.

Continuously clearing various levels of missions, the teams grew robustly, defeating all kinds of experts from their period along the way, with many Fierce Persons and lone wolves being either killed or absorbed by them.

They became the groups with the most promise to become new high-tier teams.

And one after another, their core members all crossed the First Tier, touching the threshold of the 【Strong】 rank.

But subsequently, 【9527】 suddenly reported having obtained a special 【Card】, and encountered a Waterloo in a certain mission world; all core members were killed in action. As a team born from the philosophy of a 【Farming Team】, the defeat and death of its core members marked the complete annihilation of 【9527】.

No one expected those who had been "farmed" to be able to stir up any waves, so later, within the intervals of two missions, the remnants of 【9527】 were hunted down crazily by other Reincarnators.

Eventually, news began to fade, 【9527】 completely became history, and the team's legacy along with that mysterious 【Card】 likely fell into the hands of certain hunters.

Based on the philosophy of 【Emotions and Bonds】, which has become a minority in the current Reincarnation generation, was the team 【Fifth Element】, which was built around the naive powerhouse 【Kai】.

This man used a pair of fists to straightforwardly build the team's foundation, and subsequently, famous lone wolves like 【Laogui】, 【Akira】, and 【Luo Qi】 came under his command. 【Fifth Element】 interacted in the manner of a true team and close friends, giving these Reincarnators, who were full of disillusionment, considerable hope.

Furthermore, the members of 【Fifth Element】 coordinated closely and lived together in the real world. They defeated the strong with the weak in many mission worlds; although their comprehensive strength could not compare to 【Garou Legend】, they had wins and losses against each other in direct confrontations, without suffering any major damage.

It is a pity that a terrifying guy named 【Bai Mian】 successfully schemed against the naive 【Kai】 in a certain mission world. That battle led to the death of core members such as 【Akira】 and 【Luo Qi】. 【Fifth Element】 declined rapidly, and it was rumored that they were wiped out by the newly risen Fierce Person 【Tao Baibai】 in the 【Jujutsu Kaisen Derivative World】, leaving only remnants who disappeared without a trace.

Based on this situation, the 【Rose Tiger】 who appeared here at this moment—the last surviving leader of the former three low-tier teams, 【Garou Legend】—attracted many gazes as soon as he appeared.

【Garou Legend】 is the most mainstream type of team-building in this Reincarnation era: an absolute abandonment of sentimentality in favor of a union of the strong. The strong band together to harvest the weak, abandoning pointless moral senses and emotional attachments, suppressing all personal emotional factors beneath a collective of interests.

【Garou Legend】 absorbed the most Fierce Persons and lone wolves at the time and was the team with the fewest rules, but correspondingly, they often had extremely high harvests in mission worlds. The intense competition among team members also made the strength of the Reincarnators within them very outstanding.

Rose Tiger listened to the discussions of the people around him, only feeling his anger rising continuously.

These idiots could not see the surging winds and clouds in the upper echelons of the space at all; they only knew how to look up at his height and gossip here, using it as talk for their drunken, dream-like existence.

"Why hasn't Tao Baibai arrived yet?!"

He was burning with rage. Beside him, a woman wearing a high-slit cheongsam with the codename 【Flower Fairy】 lit a cigarette and said in a drifting tone,

"Boss Tiger, if you have something to do, this transaction can be left entirely to me to negotiate."

There were some things she no longer wanted to pretend about.

The story belonging to 【Garou Legend】 should have ended long ago. Rose Tiger's growth rate of strength could not be maintained; he could no longer maintain the posture of suppressing all members. Therefore, for a team like 【Garou Legend】 where strength is supreme, there were already signs of collapse.

She lowered her eyelids, looking at Rose Tiger, who was sitting cross-legged on one knee, seemingly sitting in the air out of thin air.

How could Rose Tiger not know the thoughts of his team members? He did not want the team to disband, not because he couldn't let go of any affection, but because he, Rose Tiger, was able to obtain such generous conditions from 【Red Lotus Mage Luo Xi】...

He knew very well that it was absolutely not because of him, Rose Tiger, personally, but because of his 【Garou Legend】 team, which had many elite soldiers and strong generals under his command.

That woman, Luo Xi, needed the entire Garou Legend. At the very least, he had to maintain the scale of more than half of his core backbone members to continue maintaining a strong position within the Second Power Ladder; only then could he satisfy that woman's requirements.

Therefore, at a time like this, he absolutely would not allow 【Flower Fairy】 to leave. He would rather these 【Compound V】 be snatched away by those people from the 【Far East Magic Society】 than have 【Flower Fairy】 bid for them.

Clap, clap, clap!

The woman wearing a snow-white pointed hat looked at the performance of 【Rose Tiger】 and 【Flower Fairy】 and laughed until tears were almost coming out.

"Hey, hey, pink-haired tiger, are you in such a rush to suppress your subordinate's resources now? It's too unseemly."

Unlike the low-tier Reincarnators in the First Tier, veteran teams like their 【Far East Magic Society】 that had entered the Second or even Third Power Ladder long ago had a grasp of all kinds of information, and even had predictions for the direction of various teams.

Many teams had experienced the ugly state that 【Garou Legend】 was in now.

It is true that a union of the strong is the royal road, but without a powerful Reincarnator to suppress all the noise, such a team is completely a pile of loose sand.

And 【Rose Tiger】 was clearly stuck. It was rumored that he had received an advancement mission two worlds ago, but there had been no changes yet. It was very clear that 【Rose Tiger】 could no longer control that pack of wolves.

The woman's codename was 【Snow Witch】; her skin was snow-white, and there were some crystal-clear crystals on her face. Under the light, her whole person appeared radiant, and her hair, which hung down, was a pale blue.

She was the number three figure of the 【Far East Magic Society】 and was rumored to have already entered the Third Tier. Therefore, Rose Tiger only took one look and did not get angry with her.

Step, step. At this moment, footsteps sounded. Both Rose Tiger and Snow Witch turned their heads to look, but the person who came was still not Tao Baibai; it was a Reincarnator with one black and one white sword strapped to his back. This person's Avatar had a slender build.

His walking pace was steady, his shoulders barely swaying at all, and he was wearing light silver armor.

Black Butler's eyes moved, and his monocle flashed. He found the data: the person who arrived was a lone wolf in the Second Tier, 【Show】. It was said that his mission completion rate was extremely high, and his exploration of worlds was also excellent.

He was a guy who was outstanding in every aspect, and he belonged to the rare type that rarely had any bad deeds reported. Therefore, he aroused the interest of the group of weirdos in 【Blue Sky】, and it was said that members of 【Blue Sky】 had already begun to approach him.

【Show】 only took one look at the situation in front of the stall and guessed that these people were all here for those 【Compound V】; he turned and left.

Hum!

The air was torn apart in an instant, and someone came running over in an extremely violent posture.

"Hey, hey, hey, the bidding hasn't even started yet, and you're leaving?!"

Bai Cangshu was emitting white steam all over his body. Because his Avatar itself had red skin, it couldn't be seen, but his body temperature at this moment was very high. His heart rate, breathing, pulse, and other vital signs were all so high that they could make a doctor in the real world doubt life.

But Bai Cangshu himself was very excited.

【Through hard training, Six Styles Iron Block (b-) lv1 level increased, currently: lv3】

【Six Styles Iron Block (b-) lv3: Instantly tense blood and Qi, strengthen the flesh, and make the body as hard as steel. It is difficult to be injured by blades or swords and can withstand higher damage, but other actions cannot be performed while in use】

【Your Constitution +1, currently: 20+ (20+3)】

【Sinful Reincarnator ex051, you have officially touched the Extreme Value of Constitution. You may accept the trial mission to break through the Extreme Value at the Rank Management Office at any time】

【Through hard training, Special Specialty Martial Arts Mastery level increased, currently: lv7 (5+2)】

【Martial Arts Mastery lv7: The realm of a Martial Arts Master where Force flows as one wishes. Force is continuous, exerting force through the air, plucking leaves to injure people】

【Martial Arts Mastery level has reached lv7, you can choose one Deepening direction】

【a: Mountain-Toppling (Rare), Force is surging. When a Martial Arts Master exerts force, Force is additionally increased by 30%】

【b: Shadows Everywhere, you completely control the changes of movement and stillness. When actions are performed, afterimages will be left behind】

【c: Like Abyss Like Prison (Rare), you have broken through the shackles of flesh and technique and begun to step into the spiritual realm. You have begun to master a special power called Intent】

Even though it was the option with the most vague description, Bai Cangshu chose c without hesitation.

Compared to a and b, which could be achieved by relying on strength and speed, the completely vague attribute of 【Intent】 was full of uncertainty, but at the same time, Bai Cangshu also knew that it was a more profound part of martial arts.

The benefits Bai Cangshu gained from his cultivation today were astonishing; not only did his Martial Dao mastery and Iron Block level up simultaneously, but he also finally grasped a hint of the mysteries behind the immortal techniques of Shen Wulong after hundreds of attempts.

【Release (Special Ability): Stimulates specific nerves and acupoints to significantly enhance cellular activity and metabolism for a short period at the cost of depleting cellular vitality.】

This 【Release】 was not the version from the Wu Clan, but a degraded version he obtained by observing the 【Logic】 of Shen Wulong; he could not master so many mysterious variations in such a short time, for Shen Wulong was a Monster who seemed to know all the hidden treasures of the human body, fully capable of controlling his flesh to unleash superhuman destructive power from a body of ordinary strength.

Bai Cangshu attacked frantically and used Iron Block to withstand attacks, eventually learning how to use it to amplify muscle strength.

And Bai Cangshu believed that in the Fist Wish World, the 【Release】 of the Wu Clan and the 【Possessing Spirit】 of the 【Worm】 were likely all derived from this special ability of Shen Wulong.

What Bai Cangshu did was the same as those people: by learning the techniques of Shen Wulong, he obtained a special ability.

The only difference was that Bai Cangshu learned very quickly... and learned more deeply.

Burning 60% of the cells on his body surface created Bai Cangshu's current appearance, with steam radiating from his entire body and his mobility significantly increased; even without activating his talent, he still gained a status of +20 to all attributes, making him the strongest and most comprehensive Reincarnator below the Extreme Value.

【Show】 stopped his Footwork and frowned as he looked at the uniquely-stated Tao Baibai; the opponent radiated an aura like a beast, but when he stood still and stared at him, he felt the opponent's figure constantly stretching taller, with a terrifying momentum continuously accumulating.

This guy is strong!
