Chapter 135 Couple's Intuition?
"You're a weirdo too. Never mind, it's not like you've only been like this for a day. Tell me about your advancement?" Xian Wenrui asked curiously.
Fan Jian patted his stomach, still not feeling full, and grilled some more meat and sweet potatoes. "Advanced level? It hurts like hell. It feels like they've cleaned up all my internal organs. Damn, it really hurts."
"Does it hurt?" Xian Wenrui had never advanced before. "I saw that Brother Lu and Sister Jing seemed to be advancing very easily."
"It was all an act, a thousand percent fake." Fan Jian winced in pain just thinking about it. "It was like having all your bones smashed and then having them grow back all over again."
"Really?!" Xian Wenrui looked at Lu Yize and Zhang Wenjing.
Zhang Wenjing calmly drank her water, and Lu Yize didn't refute her. Instead, Jiang Yue, who was biting into meat, looked up and said, "Really."
"Oh, you can speak human language?" Fan Jian was roasting sweet potatoes when he heard Jiang Yue speak and immediately turned around in surprise.
"What are you saying? She's a human being, and besides, this isn't the first time Jiang Yue has spoken." Xian Wenrui tapped him on the head.
Fan Jian tossed the roasted sweet potato to Xian Wenrui, who scalded it so badly he threw it back and forth with both hands, saying, "Are you trying to burn me to death?"
Lu Yize was originally taking time to cultivate, but because of the large number of crystal cores, he had already hit the bottleneck of the third tier and had been stuck for several days.
Just now, after absorbing the power of a third-tier sea beast, he broke through to the next level.
Suddenly, the supernatural energy in the air inside the base formed a vortex centered on Lu Yize, and all the supernatural energy surged towards Lu Yize.
The fire that was originally lit at the center was extinguished by the hurricane formed by the superpower. Fan Jian grabbed the half-cooked meat and was blown so hard that he couldn't open his eyes.
"What's going on? What happened?"
Despite his busy schedule, Fan Jian managed to take a bite of meat; he was truly starving! Is advancing to a higher level really that energy-intensive?
"It seems that Lu Yize is about to advance to the next level."
Zhang Wenjing and Sheng Xue hid under Xiaobai's body. Xiaobai lay prone on the ground, leaving some space around its abdomen so that the two of them wouldn't be crushed.
"Does he have enough crystal cores?" Xian Wenrui rummaged through his pockets, wondering if he should offer some first-tier crystal cores as a gift.
"It should be enough. If it weren't, Jiang Yue wouldn't be so calm."
Zhang Wenjing peeked out and saw that Jiang Yue was the first to get up after noticing that something was wrong with Lu Yize, but after staring at him for a while, she calmly sat down again to eat.
The others followed Zhang Wenjing's gaze to Jiang Yue and found her biting into bloody sea monster meat, but her eyes kept glancing at Lu Yize, and she didn't seem worried.
"It should be fine. If something had happened, Jiang Yue would have rushed over already, although I don't know how she made that judgment."
Single guy Fan Jian said he couldn't understand it. Could it be that couples have some kind of special connection? No way, if there were, he'd like to date someone too.
"Brother Lu has leveled up again? What level is it? I can't count it on my fingers." Xian Wenrui thought, counting on his fingers.
"This time the advancement is successful, and I've reached the fourth rank."
Zhang Wenjing took out her notebook to record the situation and analyzed the current situation: "The previous zombie king and the upcoming Human Deer are both fourth-tier."
"We should be thankful that Lu Yize was able to advance to the fourth rank before that giant deer arrived, otherwise we would probably have been trampled."
Fan Jian, who had just advanced to the second tier, stretched out his hand to feel the superpower within his body. "Indeed, the first tier and the second tier are completely different concepts. It would be difficult to withstand an attack from a tier higher even if it meant risking one's life."
If the second tier is already like this, let alone the third and fourth tiers. That giant deer, which has been at the fourth tier for some time and has the ability to foresee things, is incredibly difficult to deal with.
Xian Wenrui, who was still at level one, was on the verge of tears. "What kind of advancement speed is Brother Lu at? He's already at level four. It's only been a few months since his superpower appeared. It's infuriating to compare people like this."
"It's alright, everyone has their strengths. Maybe our talents lie elsewhere," Fan Jian comforted his good friend, putting his arm around his shoulder.
Xian Wenrui was not comforted at all. The person in front of him had just advanced to the second level, but was stronger than him.
If Lu Yize knew what Xian Wenrui was thinking, he would probably say that his talent wasn't as good as Xian Wenrui imagined, and that he was just relying on his memories from his previous life.
Walking the same path again is naturally smoother than starting from scratch like them.
While the others were discussing when they would reach the peak of their advancement, Sheng Xue's expression suddenly changed. She glanced outside the base and exclaimed, "Oh no, that shadow-type ability user has escaped!"
Because Lu Yize suddenly advanced, Dong Hong suddenly found that the restraints binding him had loosened.
Dong Hong was ruthless enough to himself; he immediately used half of his supernatural power to sever half of the sea monster's body.
He endured the pain, his eyes filled with hatred. He just wanted to take this opportunity to escape, get a better body, and come back to take revenge!
He was determined to tear everyone in this base to pieces! Especially that woman who kept using him for experiments! Damn it, damn it! She really deserved to die!
The moment Dong Hong escaped his restraints, his body was completely mangled, with not a single piece of flesh intact. He bit off his own tongue to stay conscious, wishing he could kill everyone on the spot.
But he understood the principle that as long as the green hills remain, there will always be firewood to burn.
Dong Hong glanced back resentfully, memorized the faces of all these people, and then dragged his mutilated body forward in the rain.
They kept increasing the distance between themselves and the base: ten meters, twenty meters, one hundred meters...
A ferocious smile appeared on Dong Hong's distorted face. As long as they survived, as long as they could survive, he would make all of these people die!
But when he stepped out of the 500-meter range, a cracking sound suddenly came from inside his body. Dong Hong's body stopped in place, and he looked down in disbelief.
Immediately afterwards, the supernatural core in his abdomen was shattered from the inside out by a force, breaking into exactly twenty-one fragments from a single point to a continuously spreading and crawling crack.
The fear that gripped his very soul made Dong Hong try to suppress the pain of his constantly draining superpower, but he was already speechless because of Jiang Yue's previous invasion of his mental powers.
Overwhelmed by pain and despair, he was too terrified to utter a sound. No, no! This shouldn't be the end for him! He was a superhuman, a chosen one! Dong Hong struggled to crawl back.
However, his power core had gradually cracked, making it impossible for him to use even a trace of his power. Finally, the power within his body rapidly expanded, and all the power cores exploded.
The explosion reached the base, startling Sheng Xue, who was about to manipulate the trace of her superpower that she had left in Dong Hong's superpower core.
Hearing the noise, Fan Jian looked at Sheng Xue with surprise and exclaimed, "Holy crap, Xiao Xue, you're amazing! You blew him up?"
Sheng Xue shook her head. "It wasn't me. He died before I could even use my last bit of supernatural power."
