Chapter 2808: 5 Seconds

【Tree's Gift】 could be drunk in two stages. Su Xiao picked up one of the bottles and drank one-third. As soon as the potion entered his mouth, with his concentration, he almost spat it out.

Su Xiao used quite a bit of effort to swallow the potion in his mouth. His face turned a bit blue, and only after a long breath did he recover. This thing was truly too hard to drink.

"This thing..."

Su Xiao's mana was released, causing the remaining two-thirds of the potion in the crystal bottle to settle. Taking the opportunity to seal the bottle with a stopper, the potion inside gradually stabilized. This thing could be kept for over a dozen years.

In Reincarnation Paradise, if he could reach the level of drinking this potion for the second time in the future, it definitely wouldn't take over a dozen years. The next drink would be used to break through that unknown limit. But whether it could succeed was still unknown; after all, the potion data marked that there was a certain probability of success.

Putting away the two bottles of potion, Su Xiao sensed himself. A very comfortable feeling spread from the center of his chest to the surroundings. Only a few seconds had passed, and he felt a sense of relief. This was the recovery of permanent damage accumulated from long-term combat.

Reincarnation Paradise wasn't unable to recover this kind of damage, but it required high-tier permission. Basic recovery functions were more used for saving lives.

After the Witch sent the Void Tree Fruit, the leader's contact was cut off. He would have to wait until the next Void Banquet to complete the transaction with the leader. The other party would pay the concoction fee then. Thinking about it, when trading, the Undead Old Man and White Bull should be very envious.

Su Xiao concocted 5 bottles of 【Ocean Stock Solution】, 15 bottles of 【Life Characteristic No. 01】, and 10 bottles of recovery potion 【Vitality Stock Solution】, then traded the former two to Benny, letting Benny go to the Trading Market to sell them.

There was one last thing left to do. Once finished, Su Xiao planned to go with Reid to a remote place in the Void. He would forgo the rest time in the real world this time; guiding the daughter of his old friend Reid could also be a way to relax his mind, as it wasn't a battle after all.

Leaving the exclusive room, Su Xiao headed straight for the Trial Ground.

【You have entered the Trial Ground. Please select a mode.】

【Auxiliary Mode/Combat Mode.】

This was summoning a mirror image. Su Xiao hadn't summoned one for a long time because it didn't help him much. Flipping the prompt to the very bottom, Su Xiao activated the Land of All Living Things in the Trial Ground.

【You have activated the usage right of the 6th floor of the Land of All Living Things (30 hours). This usage right requires normal payment of Soul Coins, 35 Soul Coins per hour, totaling 1050 Soul Coins. Pay or not?】

Su Xiao had wanted to enter the 6th floor of the Land of All Living Things for a long time, so he decisively chose to pay.

A spatial array appeared under Su Xiao's feet. The next moment, he was already on an ice field. This ice field was as bright as a mirror. Looking down along the transparent ice, one could see soul crystals the size of millstones.

Su Xiao's first thought was to try whether these soul crystals could be dug out. As long as he got one out, raising Blade Technique Master to Lv. 60 wouldn't be difficult, and Close Combat Master could also be raised to Lv. 60. Unfortunately, the soul crystals inside the ice layer were absolutely impossible to dig out.

Su Xiao gripped the hilt of the blade at his waist. Just as he drew the blade, thousands of transparent phantoms with the same appearance and aura as him appeared in the surroundings.

Su Xiao looked around at the thousands of his own phantoms. These phantoms were all composed of soul crystal energy. No wonder it cost 35 Soul Coins per hour to enter the 6th floor of the Land of All Living Things.

"Blade Technique: Flow."

Su Xiao slashed out with one blade. All the transparent phantoms in the surroundings slashed out "Flow." After slashing out "Flow," these phantoms all shattered and surged toward Su Xiao from the surroundings.

A very wonderful feeling appeared. Su Xiao felt as if he had slashed "Blade Technique: Flow" thousands of times just now, and the efficiency improvement of this kind of cultivation didn't put much burden on himself.

"Blade Technique: Flow" hadn't reached the most perfect state. "Blade Technique: Extreme," "Blade Technique: Blood Blade," and "Blade Technique: Kill" could take the opportunity to stabilize, and the newly developed blade technique moves also needed to be perfected.

Bitter cultivation began. Regrettably, the usage right of the 6th floor of the Land of All Living Things was only 30 hours. After that, even if he was willing to pay Soul Coins, he couldn't get in, unless he could obtain the entry permission here. If it were a permanent entry permission, that would be even better.

Time passed quickly in bitter cultivation. Su Xiao only felt that a few hours had passed, but Reincarnation Paradise prompted him that 30 hours were up.

The fatigue of the body couldn't be faked. Su Xiao stepped onto the teleportation point, glanced at the boundless ice field to the side, and was teleported out of the Trial Ground.

After contacting Reed, Su Xiao returned to the exclusive room to rest. Before entering the Void, he had to recover to his usual state.

Seven hours later, inside Reed's blacksmith shop. Wu Wu, who was adopted by Reed, was squatting in the corner sobbing, obviously scolded by Reed again.

Sitting in a chair, holding a can of beer, Reed was so angry he almost had a cerebral hemorrhage. He didn't quite understand; as an orphan of the Silintis race, Wu Wu's manufacturing talent was clearly top-tier in the Void, yet her forging level was so low.

"Bai Ye, take her away. Adopting her, I'll at least live 200 years less."

"Are you sure?"

Su Xiao knew the manufacturing talent of the Silintis race very well. This race helped the predecessor Shadow of Law-Exterminators manufacture many things. Not to mention anything else, Ma Wen·Waltz and the old Law-Exterminator would definitely provide protection.

"Ready to set off?"

Reed pushed open the door of the back room, not mentioning the matter just now at all.

Walking into the back room, a four-seater machine appeared before his eyes. Su Xiao looked at this suspicious machine, then looked at Reed.

"Although it looks broken, it's absolutely fine. This is a spatial traversal device built by Wu Wu. It only takes 10 seconds to reach 'Saint Geya' in the Void. I use it to stock up on goods; it's very sturdy."

"..."

Su Xiao was silent for a moment and didn't sit in the spatial traversal device.

"I can set up a remote spatial array, combined with the Void Passage Certificate..."

"Absolutely not, Bai Ye, I didn't offend you, right? It's safer to sit in this thing."

Reed seemed to recall some terrifying thing, and his stubble-filled face was trembling. Once, because Su Xiao was an alchemist, he entrusted Su Xiao to help him set up a remote spatial array.

After the remote spatial array was activated, Reed experienced what it felt like to enter a high-speed washing machine. His balls were shaken numb; it was unforgettable for a lifetime.

"..."

Su Xiao sat on the spatial traversal device. Xiang Bubu Wang and Baham followed closely. They both went this time, just as if they were going on a trip.

Seeing this, Reed sat in the main seat and activated the spatial traversal device.

"Everyone, bite down hard."

"Why?"

Baham had an ominous premonition in its heart.

"To avoid biting your tongue."

As soon as Reed finished speaking, Su Xiao felt a very strong propulsion coming from behind. The pushing force was sufficient, and his back felt a bit of pain.

"Uragah~"

Baham's beak bit its own tongue, making a strange sound. It couldn't say any slick talk.

Light and shadow flashed before his eyes. After about 10 seconds, Su Xiao found that the strip-like space around him was gradually healing, and the scene before his eyes began to clear.

This was inside a luxurious, empty room. The spatial traversal device was located on a metal track. This thing was composed of four metal tracks. Judging from the wear marks, Reed indeed used this thing frequently.

"The remote place of the Void, 'Saint Geya,' has arrived. The scenery here will definitely satisfy you."

Reed pointed toward the window. Su Xiao got up from the spatial traversal device and came to the window. The scene that met his eyes was indeed very beautiful. A clean white path was covered with maple leaves, and the maple trees on both sides were rustling in the wind.

In front of a maple tree nearly a meter thick, a girl holding a wooden blade was hacking at the tree trunk one by one, her movements clean and neat. Sweat beads dripped down her fair chin.

Beside this girl was an old man wearing loose white clothes with white hair and beard, urging the girl to hack at the tree trunk one by one. Judging by the appearance, this old man was nine times out of ten the girl's blade technique master.

"Bai Ye, how is it?"

Reed raised his chin, signaling that the girl was his old friend's daughter.

"5 seconds."

"She has this ability? Can she survive 5 seconds fighting you?"

"I meant the other one."

"This..."

Reed looked at the old man under the maple tree outside the window, held it in for a long time, and didn't say anything. ===== CHAPTER 2809 =====
