Chapter 576 - 560: Marriage Death Twins lv2
Feng Mu chuckled and shook his head, withdrawing his wandering thoughts, and refocused his attention on the attribute panel.
Sure enough, with the breakthrough in [Molded Embryo], the Constitution attribute had also received further enhancement.
Constitution 9.9999 (11.2+5.7) [Under Explosive Grand Leap]
The "Explosive Leap" had already been upgraded to an "Explosive Grand Leap" suffix, just like the Spirit attribute.
Unfortunately, due to the lack of crucial Genetic Needle, both the Constitution and Spirit during the Grand Leap remained in a "locked state."
"No rush, no rush, the Genetic Needle will be available, the Bone Marrow Cleansing Pill will be available, everything will be available. Once I bypass the system and find the supply channel, that’s when I will make significant progress..."
Feng Mu was not discouraged, for what he feared least was the erosion of time.
To ordinary people, time is a poison that wears down willpower, but to him, it is a forge that tempers iron and stone.
The blue [Molded Embryo] hammered not only his bones, but as the saying goes, those with hard bones have firm hearts.
Every reconstruction and forging of bones made Feng Mu’s will as unbreakable as iron and stone.
Feng Mu squinted, looking again at the [Molded Embryo (Blue)], and the virtual box behind it also upgraded.
Universal Skill Points『0/8』or Special Skill Points『0/4』
"I still have 6 existing Universal Skill Points, 2 more to go, and once I have enough I’ll continue to upgrade [Molded Embryo]!!!"
Feng Mu was unwilling to use Special Skill Points to upgrade [Molded Embryo]; he insisted on using Universal Skill Points whenever possible and reserved Special Skill Points for upgrading special skills.
He held iron-clad principles on this skill point allocation strategy, which wouldn’t change.
His gaze swept over other upgradable skills:
Alcoholism lv3 (27/5000)
X-ray Insight lv3 (17/10000)
Dynamic Capture lv3 (218/10000)
Alcoholism was directly ignored by him, treating it as if it doesn’t exist. Still, how did its Skill Proficiency secretly increase?
Surprisingly, the virtual boxes appearing behind both X-ray Insight lv3 and Dynamic Capture lv3 were the same:
Universal Skill Points『0/8』or Special Skill Points『0/4』
They cost the same as the blue [Molded Embryo], can’t afford it~
(ps: Upgrading the Pupil Technique to lv4 is equivalent to Limit-Breaking in ordinary Martial Arts, requiring skill points in addition to Exchange Points for upgrades.)
Feng Mu held his breath, turning his attention to the most important special skills (entries), which could only be upgraded using Special Skill Points, not touching even a bit of Universal Skill Points.
Marriage Death Twins lv1『0/5』,
Tongue Root Death Curse lv1『0/2』,
Deputy’s Blessing lv1『0/3』,
Blood Bar Deceit Eye lv3『0/12』.
Nine Nether Evil Iron (Red) 『0/9』
Currently, only the first three skills met the upgrade conditions, which actually saved him some dilemma.
Without hesitation, he decided to invest all Special Skill Points into [Marriage Death Twins].
Marriage Death Twins lv1: When your main body dies, you can choose to distribute the death to half of your followers, substituting your death, and you will be reborn.
In the reality without savepoints, a skill that offers an extra life is always the most powerful Divine Skill, without exception, standing above all abilities.
Even if this skill might never be needed, it must still be most reverently placed at the top.
A few seconds later, [Marriage Death Twins] upgraded to lv2, with significant changes and new traits added in the skill description.
[Marriage Death Twins lv2]:
Upon your main body’s death, choose one of the following rebirth methods:
1. Distribution Mode: Transfer death damage to all followers at once (originally 50%), with each bearing less damage.
2. Designated Mode: Precisely select 1/3 of followers to die for you (preconditions for selection must be set in advance)
New Traits:
「Rebirth Mark」: Can pre-mark 1 quality follower as a resurrection vessel.
「Residual Soul Recovery」: Substitute follower will return 10% of soul energy to the main body.
「Death Reprieve」: Execution of death is delayed by 3 seconds during which all attacks are immune.
Ps: Cooldown for half a year!
Feng Mu carefully examined the upgraded skill explanation, feeling thoughtful at heart:
"While Distribution Mode can distribute damage evenly to all followers, two extremes exist: none could die or a collective wipeout could occur.
Therefore, without certain knowledge of the damage value, the 1/3 death rate of the Designated Mode is relatively safer."
When his gaze landed on the new traits, his sight slightly froze.
The first two traits were fine; it was the third trait that put him into long contemplation, with his thoughts running wild.
"Death Reprieve for 3 seconds, immunity to all attacks, in other words, invincibility for 3 seconds. If handled properly..."
Strangely, Feng Mu already started to look forward to his... death!!!
Having spent all the accumulated Special Skill Points, he felt the ache, but the sense of fulfillment was just as significant, most importantly boosting his sense of security.
Who said only good guys need a sense of security? Villains need it even more~
Feng Mu turned his gaze to the skill proficiency, which was about to break through six figures: 98730 points.
Each point represented Feng Mu’s hard work, and now was the time to cash in on the results.
Feng Mu couldn’t help but straighten his back, pride naturally emerging, as he muttered to himself:
"So, my accomplishments today are all due to my diligent efforts, absolutely without any exaggeration!"
The results earned through hard work are enjoyed without guilt.
With that, he exclaimed grandly:
"Allocate points!"
[The first year, you began practicing the Turtle Armor Skin Changing Skill.]
This skill is a superior method in the Old Martial Skin-Changing Hard Skill, emphasizing "external cultivation of the epidermis like armor, internal nourishment of Qi and blood like a turtle."
At the start, one must soak the entire body in medicinal baths, supplemented by iron sand striking the skin to gradually adapt the flesh to external impact.
Rising at dawn each day, you first immerse yourself in boiling medicinal soup, skin suffused red as if branded by hot iron.
After the medicinal properties permeate, repeatedly lash your body with sandbags until bruises beneath the skin form web-like patterns.
The fierce pain almost causes you to faint, but you persist, day after day, night after night.
[In the fifth year, your epidermis had matured to a certain level.]
Your skin fibers became as dense as vines, and the subcutaneous fat layer was compressed to the limit, replaced by a layer as rough yet resilient as aged bark.
Ordinary cudgel blows could now only leave faint red marks.
[After twenty years, the Turtle Armor Skin Changing Skill reached Great Success!]
Now, your skin exhibited a strange blue-gray color, covered in fine patterns resembling a turtle shell.
You stood beneath a waterfall, unmoved by the impact of thousands of jin of water.
A regular person hacking with an iron knife could only leave shallow white marks on your skin!
[By thirty years, dissatisfied, you determined to break the limit!]
The Turtle Armor Skin Changing Skill had been practiced to Perfection, reaching the limits of this Martial Arts, but you did not think so; you sought to surpass the limits.
You pondered deeply, observing various wild animals.
One day, you witnessed a giant python shedding its skin between rocks, with the old skin tearing piece by piece while the new skin appeared soft and delicate. You felt suddenly enlightened.
Then, you made a mad decision — skin peeling.....
