Alone and Infinite

Only true love transcends all boundaries to reveal one's deepest secrets; the phrase "can be completed" can be said to express a heartfelt hope for one's own successor through every stroke of the pen.

After choosing the direction of power evolution, the next step is to choose ingenuity.

[Executioner, your current base Dexterity stat has reached 20 points. Please select the Cell Enhancement direction.]

[Note: The direction of enhancement is based on individual qualities, and each person is different. It will greatly affect the future development of the apostle, so please choose carefully.]

[Note: Because the Executioner is currently undergoing enhancement, the enhancement process cannot be paused for an extended period; each selection only lasts 60 seconds!]

1. High-difficulty move: Increases body flexibility by 10% (Rare)

2. Acrobat: Increases physical coordination by 10% (Rare)

3. Light and Agile: Dexterity +3

4. True Dexterity: When performing a dexterity assessment, gain an additional 20% weighted Strength attribute (Rare, Assessment Level: Expert).

5. Wind Chaser: Increases the speed of all body movements by 10% (Extremely Rare)

There are still five directions, and there are more rare options compared to the strength attribute.

Both flexibility and coordination are actually very useful.

Li Xia didn't hesitate and immediately chose 5!

He finally realized that the truly useful parts of the "Eight-Nine Arcane Arts" he had practiced were right here!

Yes, it doesn't add attributes directly, but as a guide, it's definitely not as simple as it appears on the panel.

The true qi was constantly cleansing the body and adjusting its direction!

Perhaps this is the true value of the introductory chapter of the "Eight-Nine Mysterious Techniques"!

Chapter 184 Extreme Rewards!

[Executioner, your current base Intelligence attribute value has reached 20 points. Please select the cell enhancement direction.]

【Notice.】

[Select a time frame of 60 seconds]

1. Overclocking Mindset: Spell model construction speed increased by 10%.

2. Scholar's Mark: Intelligence +3

3. Chaos Deduction: Fuzzy computation speed improved by 10% (Rare)

4. True Intelligence: When performing an intelligence assessment, gain an additional 20% weighted intelligence attribute (Rare, Assessment Level: Expert).

5. Law Analysis: Increases the power of all spells by 10% (Extremely Rare, Judgment Level: Domain Level)

The option of intelligence made Li Xia hesitate, even though the law analysis seemed very strong.

However, he had very few spell skills, and the Hole Wave was not a spell at all, but a technique.

Spells generally refer to spells or spells that require the construction of models or are purely idealistic.

Specifically, the hall will be displayed as 'Spell Skills' on the panel.

His gaze lingered on 4. True Intelligence for a moment; he really wanted that.

This weighted judgment is actually very useful.

When a judgment is required, the attribute is judged at 120%.

Putting everything else aside, when checking someone else's stats, your own 20 points of intelligence will be compared to 24 points.

The same applies to others probing you.

Unfortunately, the assessment level is only expert, which is too low.

Even if it were a level higher, becoming the 'authoritative level', Li Xia would still choose the fourth option quite decisively.

With time running out, Li Xia finally chose to analyze the fifth law.

Who knows, maybe one day I'll learn some magical skills.

The main reason is that its extreme rarity is too attractive.

[Executioner, your current base mental attribute value has reached 20 points. Please select the cell enhancement direction.]

1. Increase mental strength: Increase the upper limit of true qi by 100 points.

2. Resilience: Mental attribute +3

3. Mind Barrier: Increases the probability of resisting mind control by 10% (Rare, Judgment Level: Expert)

4. True Spirit: When performing a spirit assessment, gain an additional 20% weighting on the spirit attribute (Rare, Assessment Level: Expert).

5. Light of the Soul: Increases energy recovery speed by 5% (Rare)

After looking at the five options for a while, Li Xia decisively chose the second one.

The fifth item seems good, but restoring one's true qi mainly relies on the circulation of qi through the body, and the efficiency of this circulation is already quite considerable.

A 5% increase won't significantly improve combat power, and there are plenty of equipment or accessories that increase energy recovery.

If there are alternatives, this slight increase in recovery speed is not worth considering.

Li Xia's Eight-Nine Arcane Arts, which are of the same origin, already possesses an abnormal resistance to mental control.

It's more cost-effective to just choose the Resilience attribute, which adds 3 points directly!

[Executioner, your current base physique attribute value has reached 20 points. Please select the cell enhancement direction.]

1. Rapid Metabolism: Self-healing speed increased by 10%

2. Superhuman Physique: Physique +3

3. Extraordinary Healing: Increases healing ability for stubborn lacerations caused by spells and abilities by 10% (Rare, Rating: Expert)

4. True Physique: When performing a physique assessment, gain an additional 20% weighted bonus to physique attributes (Rare, Assessment Level: Expert).

5. Body of Steel: Physical Strength +1 (Extremely Rare)

Any hesitation, however slight, is a disrespect for the strength of the body.

Li Xia instantly chose the fifth option. Needless to say, physical strength is a crucial factor. As a path to physical sainthood, not choosing this option would be a death sentence!

[Executioner, attribute selection complete, will continue the enhancement process.]

[Note: Advancing your evolutionary path will come with significant pain!]

[Note: You can purchase a painless upgrade for 1000 points!]

Li Xia's curiosity was immediately piqued.

How much pain must it have to be for the Hall of Light to make a special announcement? And that painless upgrade actually costs 1000 points to buy?

If curiosity is the driving force rooted deep in the human heart that propels us forward.

So Li Xia wants to give it a try now.

I want to see just how much it hurts!

The next second, his smile froze.

It started as a slight itch under the skin, like countless ants crawling in my blood vessels. But this sensation lasted less than half a second before turning into a burning pain.

Every muscle fiber in his body was twitching wildly, as if being torn apart, stretched, and reassembled by an invisible giant hand. His bones emitted a teeth-grinding creaking sound, as if they were being crushed and then pieced back together.

"Hiss—" Li Xia gasped, his forehead instantly covered in cold sweat.

My vision began to distort, and the reinforced bulkhead in front of me seemed to melt like a wax figure being baked by high temperatures.

My eardrums were filled with a sharp buzzing sound, as if a million steel needles were churning inside my skull.

"Grass!"

He clenched his teeth so tightly that they shattered one by one under the immense force, churning in his mouth until his entire mouth was a bloody mess almost instantly.

It is then rapidly restored by the special power within the enhanced chamber, only to be crushed again, and the cycle repeats itself.

The intense pain began to penetrate deeper, as if the internal organs were being gripped, squeezed, and kneaded by an invisible hand.

It felt as if my lungs were being filled with molten iron, and every breath brought excruciating pain.

My heart was pounding, and the blood I pumped out seemed to turn into lava, surging and boiling in my veins.

"Ah—!" Li Xia finally couldn't help but let out a low roar, his steel-like body muscles trembling rapidly.

He punched the reinforced chamber again and again with both hands.

[Damaging reinforced facilities will deduct 80 points]

[Damaging reinforced facilities will deduct 40 points]

Inside the enhancement hall, Hei Tan, who had already completed his enhancement, stood blankly in front of enhancement chamber number 666, staring at the intense light flashing continuously throughout the chamber.

The passing apostles also stared in horror at the enhancement chamber, as if even the enhancement chamber could not isolate the painful screams.

"No. Although the enhancement is quite painful, is it really that bad?"

One of the apostles scratched his head and asked, puzzled.

"call------"

Thick smoke filled the hall, and from among the onlookers, a voice, tinged with reminiscence, sighed:

"It should be a special enhancement that breaks through 20 attribute points."

"Is there any other explanation for this?"

Immediately, apostles approached, their instinct to gather intelligence surging forth uncontrollably.

No matter what kind of intelligence it is, as long as it's intelligence, I can't help but share it!

The apostle who was speaking looked to be about forty years old. He took a puff of his cigarette, his somewhat weathered face obscured by the wisps of smoke.

The memory was tinged with an uncontrollable fear:

"I first broke through an extreme value, and the hall prompted me that I was in a lot of pain. Should I spend 200 points to buy a painless package?"

The uncle was silent for a while:

"I thought it was no big deal. Losing limbs is common in derivative worlds. I'm not a sissy, so what's a little pain?"

"and then?"

The first and second-tier apostles were like curious children, but some apostles in the crowd couldn't help but shudder.

He crossed his arms, his face showing fear, as if some terrifying memory had been stirred up again.

"Then?"

The middle-aged man gave a bitter laugh:

"I called out 'Mommy' at least 100 times, just like the neighbor's pet teddy bear, crying and begging the palace to let me go."

The apostles were filled with awe; they could see that an apostle who prided himself on being tough could be in such pain.

He tapped the still-flickering enhancement chamber with the hand holding the cigarette.

Like the old man who pontificates at the dinner table, he resolutely said:

"But it's really rare to see someone reach this level. I bet the guy inside has broken through two extreme values ​​at the same time!"

1. Monthly pass 2. Recommendation vote

I've made up for one chapter I was owed, but I've already reached 200 monthly votes, so I still owe 7 chapters.

Chapter 185 Night Silence's Evolution!

"what!!!"

The true qi throughout his body was like a rushing river, undulating in layers on his arms like waves.

He slammed his fists heavily onto the hatch of the reinforced pod.
