37: Chapter 28 Courage as Strong as Steel: Jingwei Filling the Sea!

Fact had proven that the body of a Warrior was indeed extremely durable.

Especially the Legendary Alien Species Warrior Seal.

Xu Shu spit blood, staring at the clock, he had forcibly held back the deterioration of his body and could do so on his last breath for a very long time.

And clearly, he didn’t need to hold on for that long.

Amidst the agonizing pain as if all his bones were about to dissolve, Xu Shu finally made it to six o’clock.

The cooling period of twelve hours for [Sit-ups] was over.

With a refresh, Xu Shu immediately wore his forbidden title and gasped for breath as he started doing sit-ups.

Regeneration +1

Regeneration +1

…

He began to have similar hallucinations in his mind.

A warm current surged through his body in time, and the toxins in his limbs and bones melted away like snow under the sunlight.

“Tai Chu Scroll had warned early on that foreseeing the future is just that, a foreseeing, and all that lies ahead is not set in stone.”

“The mysteries of heaven are elusive, the universe unpredictable, changes can happen at any time in places I cannot see!”

“Learn from my mistakes and keep the alarm bells ringing, I must be more careful in the future…”

Xu Shu’s gaze deepened.

Before long, all the wounds on his body had healed, not even a scar remained.

Then, he entered the washroom, stripped off all his clothes except his underwear.

He took two Erosion Crystals and shoved them into his underpants, letting the [Promotion Drive] of his underwear absorb them.

As they turned into a massive heat, scattering through his flesh, then slowly being sucked away by a vortex at his chest, Xu Shu bled from his nose a little.

The Curse Seal was slowly absorbing, devouring those powers, the erosion degree was rising, which was a normal reaction.

Xu Shu could feel the power of the Curse Seal increasing, his erosion degree rising, his life once again headed towards depletion.

Immediately after, he lay on the ground and continued doing sit-ups, waging a tug-of-war with the curse power erosion using the ‘life regeneration’ effect.

The feeling of repeatedly stepping in and out of Death God’s presence was just one word—thrilling!

As his Erosion Crystals were consumed one by one, black blood was oozing out of every pore on his body.

Xu Shu meticulously perspired and smoked as he continued to do sit-ups.

If those new Transcendents in the city saw this, their jaws would undoubtedly drop.

Because the normal leveling pattern was to level up and then properly practice the Body Refining Method, recuperate, and wait to recover before consuming the next Erosion Crystal.

But not Xu Shu, he didn’t stop at all.

What the hell is Body Refining Method?

Can it be more effective than my sit-ups?

If he had enough Erosion Crystals, he could keep leveling up until he reached max level.

Or until the erosion degree from the Curse Seal rose high enough to affect his consciousness, making it impossible to continue doing sit-ups, only then would he stop.

Then, like the others, recover first, continue later.

After all, curse power erosion wasn’t just eroding the physical body, it also put a lot of strain on the mind.

In the mental realm, almost everyone starts the same, only able to recover slowly on their own.

People grow passively by enduring torture when they receive a Containment Seal to become a Transcendent, just that tiny bit at a time.

No one is an exception, and nearly no one has heard of any extra methods to increase their mental strength.

Oh, there is one—Mental Resistance (Normal)!

As the Erosion Crystals were consumed one by one, Xu Shu clearly felt his power increase, his body swelling up as if something wanted to burst out.

“It seems that I didn’t just level up by one rank this time!”

Xu Shu’s eyes lit up with excitement as he continued to bleed profusely.

Feeling that his mental state was still fine, Xu Shu stuffed the last few Erosion Crystals into his underpants and swallowed them all together.

Suddenly, for a split second, there came a faint cracking noise in his head, as if an eggshell was breaking.

Immediately after, a Eureka-like memory flooded into his mind.

“I’ve realized a new ability skill…

from the Curse Seal, it seems to be a martial art skill that can make me tougher, more durable?”

“No wonder Gu Pan found it odd to see me practicing from a secret manual, it turns out that these days secret manuals are inscribed in the Curse Seal, I have to level up and realize them myself, there’s no such thing as reading a manual to practice!”

Xu Shu thoughtfully clenched his fist, becoming increasingly familiar with this newly acquired ability through the memories that surfaced in his mind.

By now, all the Erosion Crystals had been consumed, Xu Shu stood up, took a shower to clean himself, and after drying off, he slightly moved his hips to activate the [Promotion Drive] switch and opened the promotion network in front of him.

[Scanning your Curse Seal…]

[New talent skill detected, performing deep detection…]

Zzzzz~

Electricity passed through him, then the results appeared on the screen.

*[Promotion Network]

*[Gu Pan (Tai Chu), First-tier Warrior]

*[Contribution:11]

—

Contribution only 11 points?

It seems like killing the Land Shark only added one…

Oh, could it be that for a First Rank monster, if it’s ordinary (white), it only gives one Contribution point, irrelevant of level, only related to quality and rank?

That’s possible, it seems like if I want to farm Contribution points, I should go for slightly weaker monsters as it’s more cost-effective?

Xu Shu stroked his chin, then he clicked to open his personal attribute interface to check for any changes.

[Gu Pan (Tai Chu)]

[Rank: First Rank]

[Job Path Judgment: Warrior]

[Curse Seal: Warrior (Legendary) Level: 6/20]

The resources consumed included one Level 7, one Level 6, four Level 5 crystals, and the lowest, a few Level 2 or 3 crystals from inferior beasts.
