Chapter 156: [155] Power Increase, My Group Beating Up the Opponent Alone

In the mist,

The giant umbrella constructed by vines still stood tall.

Cheng Han looked up and said loudly, "Thank you for your help!"

As soon as he finished speaking,

The giant umbrella instantly shattered into pieces.

"Pu! Pu!"

One vine after another quickly retracted underground.

Only one vine deliberately swam to Cheng Han's front, lightly tapping him as a gesture of gratitude, before burrowing back underground.

The surroundings quieted down, with only a foul stench lingering.

Cheng Han immediately used the black cat as a "springboard" to quickly deduce a connection through the association established by the God Gloomy Extinguishing Spirit Gun.

A series of information surged.

His eyes flickered, secretly muttering, "Bronia, the executive... the Council of Ruin, the Destruction Mission... What a coincidence!"

The mastermind behind this attack was indeed Bronia.

Simply put, this woman is the executive of the Destruction Mission. Upon hearing the reputation of the "genius that appears once every fifty years," she carefully planned this operation.

Bronia used an extraordinary item called the "Soul-Cracking Blood Quell" to split a trace of her soul, and then used blood sacrifice to create a Blood Butcher, attaching it to the Xuanfa wooden puppet.

Unfortunately, this lady's fishing expedition happened to catch a terrifying great white shark.

Cheng Han reviewed the entire process of this battle and his mouth slightly curved upwards. "A Xuan Master dealing with a Xuan Warrior is indeed overwhelming."

His strength is comparable to that of a Xuan Master. Although the power borrowed from the black cat is only thirty percent, it is still at the level of a Xuan Master. The executive had no power to fight back and was burned into a mutilated corpse.

Cheng Han thought for a moment and sent a message to Qu Xiaoying, briefly telling her about the death of the executive.

The news of the female team leader joining the Destruction Mission might be helpful to her.

After a moment,

Qu Xiaoying's voice, mixed with piety and astonishment, came through the soul link:

"Sir, thank you for your guidance."

The peculiar thoughts of the female team leader were also transmitted.

"Sir, you are truly powerful. The executives of the Destruction Mission are all strong at the level of Xuan Warriors, but you can kill them with a single word."

"It seems that you are indeed planning to deal with the Council of Ruin. I will strive to infiltrate the organization and serve you better."

Cheng Han thought for a moment and cautioned, "Let things take their course, don't be too deliberate, so as not to expose yourself."

Then,

He received a good person card.

"Your kindness and benevolence are admirable!"

Cheng Han's mouth twitched and he severed the connection.

Next,

It was time for the harvest.

First was Ke Zhang's gift.

This was not an ordinary vine, but a small section of the "original body," which was even more valuable than those vines used by the extraordinary creature to deal with the Blood Butcher.

After some analysis,

The result came out: "Spirit-Control Xuan Seal, First Rank, Integrity 39.56%."

The increase in integrity reached 14.42%.

Cheng Han sensed for a moment and felt joy in his heart. "Indeed, it is a third-grade extraordinary plant. The knowledge extracted from it greatly enhances the control of the Xuan Seal over plants."

Let's give an example.

Previously, the Spirit-Control Xuan Seal could only manipulate plants to perform some small tricks, such as transforming into a chair, which was very convenient for picnics.

But now, the Xuan Seal could actually give birth to combat plants.

As long as there is sufficient spiritual power, one can continuously create "plant servants". Although their individual strength is not too strong, they make up for it in numbers and their fearlessness in battle.

Cheng Han blinked his eyes and said, "That's right! With the plant servants and puppets, we can now gang up on our opponents in fights."

"I am a group, beating up the opponent one by one!"

And then...

It was Blood Slaughter's turn, as well as the relics of the Executor Lady.

Cheng Han used the perspective of the black cat to lock onto extraordinary items and silently recited, "Analyze the Blood Soul Blood Quench! Complete the Secret Realm Remnant Seal."

Although Blood Slaughter's secret technique was powerful, it was too evil and disgusting, and he had no interest in it.

But the ability to split souls was truly tempting and perfectly matched the Secret Realm Remnant Seal.

Then...

A cool wave surged from the top of his head.

His spiritual power quickly dropped.

The Secret Realm Remnant Seal expanded, and the core filament structure grew rapidly.

When the abnormality subsided.

The feedback came as expected: "Secret Realm Remnant Seal, completeness 80.92%."

Completeness increased by 8.68%.

Another secret technique was added - the Split Soul Technique.

Cheng Han pondered for a moment and was very satisfied. "This secret technique is a perfect match for the Dark Spirit Secret Puppet. By splitting a strand of the soul and merging it with the puppet, the combat power can increase by at least thirty percent."

"As long as the split soul is less than three thousandths, even if it is lost, it won't have much impact on the main body and can be recovered after a period of rest."

Cheng Han silently thanked the "Lady" for her generous contribution.

In addition...

Two analyses yielded 1104 proficiency points, and the upgrade progress reached 8148/30000.

The maximum spiritual value increased by 3.6 points, raising the maximum spiritual value to 94.4 points.

*

One minute later.

A strange and immense fluctuation swept through.

Cheng Han was startled, and he had a vague premonition in his heart.

Two seconds later.

An abnormality occurred.

"Hoo~ hoo~"

A violent gust of wind came roaring in.

In just a few breaths, the boundless mist that enveloped this place disappeared completely.

Cheng Han immediately realized.

The mysterious formation of the first trial point had been closed.

Not long after.

A figure descended from the sky and hovered in mid-air.

It was a middle-aged man.

He was dressed in an exquisite black robe, surrounded by visible cyclones.

This person glanced at the remains of Blood Slaughter, then his gaze fell on Cheng Han's head, and he spoke with a smile, "You must be Cheng Han?"

Cheng Han immediately saluted, "Master Xuan Shi!"

He quietly deduced and obtained information about the other person.

Name - Tang Wanqi.

Position - Xuan Shi stationed at Black Mountain Camp.

Tang Wanqi looked him up and down, with a look of appreciation on his face: "I have heard about your killing of Qibi, it's impressive."

Cheng Han clearly sensed a strange fluctuation passing through his body.

This was obviously a secret method used by Xuan Shi to check his spiritual power.

Tang Wanqi's tone was approving: "Your spiritual power level is not bad, and you also understand the method of communicating with plants. You are even more outstanding than I expected."

To some people, communicating with plants seemed like an extraordinary thing, but in the eyes of Xuan Shi, it was just a superficial secret method that didn't need much attention.

Cheng Han made a respectful gesture: "You overpraise me."

His true spiritual power exceeded 90 points, but thanks to the concealment effect of his hidden power, the level he displayed on the surface was only around 40 points.

In comparison, the average level of a regular Black Armor Army soldier was generally between 30 and 35 points.

Tang Wanqi did not ask about the Blood Butcher incident, but instead asked another question: "The Black Armor Army has a very high opinion of you. I want to hear your thoughts on the training of new recruits."

Cheng Han pondered his words and answered tactfully: "Personally, I think as a warrior, mastering combat skills, good teamwork, and professional knowledge in dealing with enemies are what keep oneself alive."

The three things he mentioned hardly involved training, but rather seemed to be more about tormenting people.

Tang Wanqi laughed: "So you think the current training methods are not very useful?"

Cheng Han answered frankly: "I almost lost my life."

Tang Wanqi nodded lightly: "Your training as a new recruit ends here. Go report to the Black Mountain Camp immediately."

Cheng Han started to play the thief: "When I was dealing with the Blood Butcher just now, it suddenly lost its combat power. I feel there must be something fishy about it."

Tang Wanqi smiled gently: "The Xuan Pavilion will handle this matter, you don't need to worry."

After saying that, the Xuan Shi quickly ascended into the sky.

Cheng Han smacked his lips: "Wind-based Xuan magic? It's quite convenient, but unfortunately, the visual correlation is too weak to decipher its mysteries."

He looked around the empty environment and suddenly had a feeling that he might completely change the training methods that had lasted for a hundred years.

He muttered in his heart, "The future new recruits should be grateful to me. I spared them the painful experience of wetting their pants in fear."

In a previous deduction scene, Deputy Chief Yu Xianglong of the Inspection Bureau was scared to the point of wetting his pants during the first level, truly in a miserable state.

It can be imagined that this was by no means an isolated case.

Soon, the sound of footsteps came from a distance.

Cheng Han knew without deduction that it must be the surveillance team.

Before long, the two sides met and introduced themselves to each other.

The leader of the surveillance team, Hu Yinan, suddenly asked a question: "The Xuan Shi who flew away just now, was it Lord Tang Wanqi, the guardian Xuan Shi of the Black Mountain Camp?"

Cheng Han nodded: "That's right!"

Mu Zhenghao, the deputy lieutenant of the Second Battle Group, was a little surprised: "This Lord is the strongest Xuan Shi guarding the Black Mountain Camp, and he actually came personally for the rescue."

Hu Yinan's expression was filled with envy: "Cheng Han, your reputation has reached the Xuan Pavilion, the Xuan Shi Lords remember your name."

Cheng Han smiled slightly and did not respond.

Mu Zhenghao brought up a gossip topic: "I heard that Lord Tang Wanqi has a very strict personality, even the military commander is a bit afraid of this Xuan Shi."

Cheng Han's expression was subtle.

Strict? I actually think this Xuan Shi is quite kind.

*

Icefield.

The Blue Flag Demon Extermination Squad was hunting.

"Clang! Clang!"

Several warriors vigorously struck their shields, and the sound spread far away.

A beast resembling a deer was immediately frightened, and it quickly turned and ran in another direction.

Its speed is astonishingly fast, each step effortlessly covering six or seven meters. Even an ordinary soldier would find it difficult to catch up with it.

The wild beast ran for dozens of meters and approached a snowdrift.

A graceful figure suddenly emerged from it, letting out a loud roar.

"Stop!"

This shout contained a strange power.

It was the roar of the Valkyrie.

Naturally, it was Qu Xiaoying.

In the next instant.

The wild beast stiffened and fell straight onto the snow.

A group of warriors in the distance cheered at the sight.

"The captain is becoming more powerful!"

"The captain is mighty!"

Qu Xiaoying's face remained calm as she brushed off the snowflakes from her body.

Soon after.

The warriors gathered around, securely binding the wild beast, and excitedly discussing.

"The blood essence of the 'Gui Ji' greatly enhances male vigor. Extracting the blood essence from a living Gui Ji can fetch a price ten times higher than a dead one."

"Thanks to the captain's powerful battle roar, otherwise we would never have caught the Gui Ji."

Qu Xiaoying did not participate in the discussion.

In her heart, she silently prayed: "Sir, the Blue Flag Demon Hunting Team has captured a semi-transcendent creature, Gui Ji. If you need it, I am willing to offer it to you."

As the captain and the one who made the first capture, Qu Xiaoying could buy the prey at a discounted price, which served as a subsidy for the other team members.

This female captain had developed a habit of reporting to Sir whenever she encountered something good, asking for his opinion.

After a few seconds.

A voice suddenly echoed in her mind: "No need."

Qu Xiaoying sighed in disappointment.

Sir had given her too much, but she felt like she had given back too little, which often made her feel uneasy.

After a second.

Sir spoke again: "I have prepared a few special talismans for you. In times of emergency, they might be of some use."

Qu Xiaoying was taken aback.

She observed her spiritual sea and discovered the peculiar energy of the Sixth Team.

The female captain sensed it and was both surprised and shocked.

She was pleasantly surprised that the talismans were very useful.

They were divided into two types.

The first type was called "Weapon Talisman." By activating the talisman near a plant, one could instantly obtain a "Spirit Wood" sword or spear.

Its benefits were unquestionable.

She had a limited number of swords and spears, so if she ran out, she could still use the Spirit Wood weapons, ensuring she wouldn't be defenseless.

The other type was the "Binding Talisman." As the name suggests, by activating the talisman, one could manipulate plants to bind the enemy, making it a versatile offensive and defensive tool.

What shocked her was the miraculous way these gifts were bestowed. Didn't it resemble the means by which gods bestowed divine arts?

It was too similar!

The female captain increasingly felt that Sir was undoubtedly the representative of the gods!

At this moment.

Qu Xiaoying deeply felt that she had stumbled upon an extraordinary stroke of luck. This generous figure who casually bestowed treasures was definitely one of a kind in the small spiritual realm of Tai'an.

She made up her mind to work even harder to serve Sir.
