Chapter 1904

Accidentally entering the Starry Sky Seat made Su Xiao look forward to the Starry Sky Banquet, which would be held at an unknown time, but he soon selectively put this matter to the back of his mind.

Rather than hoping to reach the sky in a single bound by relying on the transactions at the Starry Sky Banquet, Su Xiao felt that being down-to-earth and becoming stronger step by step was more reliable. The former had a large element of luck, while the latter was steady and solid.

Thinking of this, Su Xiao got up and left the exclusive room, heading straight for the Land of All Living Things. He now had 3.29 million Paradise Coins and could spend them to his heart's content in the Land of All Living Things.

Only by tempering himself to gain strength could Su Xiao feel powerful. Even if he obtained a large amount of resources through the Starry Sky Seat, he would still choose to improve his own strength step by step.

Without corresponding tempering, suddenly obtained power is like a castle in the air; it looks beautiful, but heaven knows when it will collapse.

【The Hunter has entered the Trial Ground. Please select a mode.】

【Auxiliary Mode / Actual Combat Mode】

Su Xiao ignored the mode selection, scrolled down, and soon found 【Land of All Living Things】.

【To enter the first floor of the Land of All Living Things, 50,000 Paradise Coins must be consumed per hour. There are seven floors in total in the Land of All Living Things.】

【Land of All Living Things - First Floor: 50,000 Paradise Coins must be consumed per hour.】

【Land of All Living Things - Second Floor: 100,000 Paradise Coins must be consumed per hour.】

【Land of All Living Things - Third Floor: 300,000 Paradise Coins must be consumed per hour.】

【Land of All Living Things - Fourth to Seventh Floors: No entry permission.】

Su Xiao chose to enter the third floor of the Land of All Living Things. He wanted to perfect the Absolute Shadow Flash ability, or rather, the current Absolute Shadow Flash could be divided into two parts: Absolute Shadow is for trapping the enemy, and Flash is for killing the enemy.

Inside the third floor of the Land of All Living Things, stone forests stood tall. Su Xiao stood on a stone pillar. As he performed the starting move of Absolute Shadow Flash, a dozen phantoms of sword technique experts appeared around him. They all assumed similar starting moves. The sword technique moves of these people could provide great inspiration for Su Xiao to develop Absolute Shadow Flash.

Unknowingly, Su Xiao was immersed in the development of his sword technique. When he came to his senses, he had less than 500,000 Paradise Coins left. He still needed to replenish supplies and so on with the remaining Paradise Coins.

Moreover, Su Xiao planned to awaken his talent ability, Soul Devourer, for the second time in the next world. With his current strength, he was already qualified to awaken his talent for the second time. The difficulty of awakening a talent was not constant; rather, the higher the tier, the greater the difficulty.

Two hours later, inside a dojo.

Su Xiao sat on the ground, holding his neck with one hand, sweat dripping down his chin. Sha stood beside him, wearing shorts, with cloth strips wrapped around her upper body as a chest binder.

"That's it? It's only been two hours."

Sha exercised her wrists; she was surprisingly proactive about teaching Su Xiao close-quarters combat.

The reason was simple: after accepting Su Xiao's surgery once, Sha was left with a shadow. That feeling of being 'played with at will' made her feel very unhappy every time she thought about it.

When teaching Su Xiao close-quarters combat, Sha could legitimately throw and beat Su Xiao, which made her feel very satisfied.

Su Xiao exercised his neck; Sha's back throw just now had almost broken his neck.

"Starry Sky Seat, have you heard of it?"

Su Xiao tilted his head back. After a crisp cracking sound, the stinging pain in his neck disappeared, and it soon returned to normal.

"Of course I've heard of it."

Sha's expression was as usual; she didn't seem to care about the Starry Sky Seat.

"Have you been there?"

Seeing Sha's expression, Su Xiao felt that the other party might know something about the Starry Sky Seat.

"Huh?" Sha looked at Su Xiao suspiciously and said, "The Starry Sky Seat, isn't that just nonsense?"

"It is not. Not long ago, I entered it."

Su Xiao shook his head while speaking.

"Is that so? What's there?"

Sha became interested. She hadn't cared about the Starry Sky Seat before, simply because the Starry Sky Seat was a legend.

"Nothing special, just a deceptive transaction. Drink this thing."

Su Xiao took a bottle of potion out of his storage space; this was something he had tailored for Sha.

"Taking medicine again? That bottle of medicine last time was so bitter I vomited for three days."

Sha took the potion somewhat reluctantly and drank it down.

"Ugh~ what the hell is this?"

Sha bent over and retched, her tears almost coming out from the retching.

"You wouldn't want to know. Lie down."

Su Xiao took out a few electrode pads and stuck them on Sha's back.

"Is my body really as severe as you said? Can't the Reincarnation Paradise recover it?"

Sha pulled at the bandages on her chest, lying bare-chested on a clean white animal fur, and took out a fully transparent communicator to flip through.

"Of course it can, but you need to obtain corresponding permission. That kind of permission requires luck."

Su Xiao pressed his thumb beside Sha's spine while speaking.

"Ouch!"

Sha was in so much pain she almost got up to punch Su Xiao.

"The accumulated blood in your lungs has been cleared away. After about five to seven more treatments, there won't be any problems."

Su Xiao was helping Sha treat hidden ailments. Sha's current strength was entirely exchanged for with her life. This woman didn't count the consequences when tempering herself. Prolonged overdraft of her body had left her body covered in scars. These injuries wouldn't show on the surface, but once they erupted, Sha's strength would drop rapidly, and at worst, she might even slide below the fourth tier, and various bodily functions would fail.

Su Xiao made a special gesture with his ten fingers and pressed down with all his might.

Crack!

Sha let out a dry cough and spat out the potion she had just drunk. The originally transparent medicinal liquid was now pitch black, and blood clots could be seen inside. Even more terrifyingly, one of the blood clots was wriggling.

"What the hell is this!"

Sha's cheek twitched.

"I'm not sure. It should be a parasite that entered your stomach when you were drinking water or eating in a harsh environment. It's not a creature; it's a type of active energy."

"Are there any similar things in my body? Get them all out, even if you have to cut me open, it doesn't matter!"

Sha was clearly very repulsed by this kind of parasitic thing.

"Only this one. You didn't have an appetite before; that was the reason."

"That's good," Sha said with a smile, stretching, and said with some emotion, "Thanks. Knowing an alchemist is really good. No wonder those big shots all get to know alchemists or pharmacists. My body feels much lighter now."

Su Xiao ignored Sha and walked out of the dojo. This could be considered Sha's exclusive room, and he had permission to enter here.

There wasn't much time left in the Reincarnation Paradise. Su Xiao first went to the Mechanical Girl's side to replenish some ammunition, then returned to the exclusive room to start preparing recovery potions, while Bubu Wang and Benny went to the trading market to purchase necessities.

Soon, the time spent in the Reincarnation Paradise reached its limit.

【The Hunter is about to return to the real world.】

【Hint: The Hunter will participate in a fifth-tier world war in the next world progress.】

【Warning: The Hunter must not disclose this news to the outside world.】

【Opponents in this world war: Death Paradise, Holy Light Paradise, Apocalypse Paradise.】

【Hint: This world war is extremely dangerous. The Reincarnation Paradise will be besieged by the three paradises.】

【The threat level of the hostile paradises is as follows:】

【Death Paradise: ★★★★★★ (Extremely high threat).】

【Holy Light Paradise: ★★ (Medium-low).】

【Apocalypse Paradise: ★ (Low).】

Seeing the hint from the Reincarnation Paradise, Su Xiao was surprised for a moment. He had fought against contractors from these three paradises. Apocalypse Paradise should be the 'mortal enemy' of the Reincarnation Paradise; every world war had this side as an opponent.

As for Death Paradise, it was very strong; its fame in the Paradise Arena was only one notch lower than the Reincarnation Paradise.

What truly surprised Su Xiao was that Holy Light Paradise had actually joined the war. In the Paradise Arena, this paradise was known as the Soft Girl Paradise, with the proportion of female contractors reaching over 70%.

Clearly, this was also a soft persimmon, but it was this soft persimmon that actually had a higher threat level than Apocalypse Paradise. One had to say, those who mined were truly worthy of their reputation.

One didn't need to think to know that the contractors of Death Paradise were definitely buzzing in their heads right now. Their opponent was not only the extremely difficult Reincarnation Paradise, but they also had two pig teammates—one responsible for being pretty, and the other liking to sweat to their heart's content in the mines.
