Chapter 162: Keep going

Bai Ze confirmed the evolution requirements of the new superhuman health skill, but saw that in addition to the non-rank soul stones, he also needed first-order soul stones, so he could only put them on hold for the time being.

Although he still had seven first-order soul stones left, Bai Ze knew that such soul stones were very precious now. Unless first-order creatures suddenly become as normal as other monsters, or their numbers multiply, he was not willing to spend all the soul stones.

After all, he and his subordinates still need equipment to evolve their skills.

In fact, if it weren't for the current situation, Bai Ze would not have been able to consume one of the few first-order soul stones in his inventory.

"You two should also see if your passive skills can be evolved." Bai Ze looked at the two women beside him and ordered. "Before we go deeper into the forest, we should seize the opportunity to become as strong as possible."

Shangguan Bingxue and Wu Yijun nodded at the same time before they began to carefully check their records.

Although Wu Yijun didn't have any skills before, after obtaining the plant enhancement skill, she began to fight on the front line often, and by killing mutant zombies, mutated animals, and fighting more powerful creatures, she also gradually mastered some useful passive skills.

"Actually, with these soul stones, I can improve some skills...... Even if it is to the next stage of evolution, it is not impossible. Wu Yijun nodded, then smiled bitterly and said, "It's a pity that I haven't met the requirements yet and can't evolve." ”

"I see......" Bai Ze nodded.

In fact, Linglong has said before that it is never easy to evolve skills, and he has been constantly working hard to fight enemies that are stronger than himself.

Since Bai Ze's life is constantly in danger, the rewards are naturally high. Because of this, his physical attributes are much higher than those of the same level. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to keep improving his skills, let alone advance his ranks.

Sou! Sou! Whoosh! ...

The wind suddenly rose, and several soul stones flew out of the leather bag on Shangguan Bingxue's slender waist.

Swish!

"This is ......" Bai Ze muttered to himself as he looked at the flickering light of the spirit stone. Each time an evolution took place, the mana surge brought the same fantastic effect, and a strange sense of closeness enveloped him.

Not only Bai Ze has this feeling, but Wu Yijun also has it, and even Linglong is no exception.

Just being close to the evolutionary process makes them feel so warm that they can't describe it in words.

Bang!

Bright rays of light, powerful particles of light surrounded Shangguan Bingxue, she closed her eyes, felt the warmth in the depths of her soul, and successfully evolved.

She opened her eyes, sighed softly, and looked at Bai Ze and Wu Yijun with a rare smile, "It's successful." ”

Wu Yijun congratulated her with a smile, Bai Ze nodded at her, and urged, "Let's go...... I want to see the camp before it gets dark. ”

His last words were joking, but all three of them knew that if a situation like a tarantula appeared again, it would probably be impossible to get there even if they walked for hours.

……

The group of three marched through the forest for more than two hours. Moreover, it took them a full thirty minutes to leave the area covered in tarantula blood.

In these 30 minutes, they traveled nearly five kilometers in total...... In other words, all the low-level enemies within five kilometers were slaughtered by Bai Ze's Blood Imperial Technique!

It wasn't until he witnessed such a thing that he understood why such a powerful and mysterious existence as Linglong actually said that his ability was even stronger than he imagined.

So far, Bai Ze has only scratched the surface of the full potential of the Blood Resisting Technique. Just imagining how powerful this skill would be when he evolved to a higher level made his heart pound.

Along the way, they encountered several enemies. They are all natural beasts that vary from mana to mana and evolve with endless soul power absorption.

After all, unlike intelligent animals, which can communicate verbally in addition to killing each other, animals without intelligence spend most of their time fighting each other, devouring each other, and constantly getting stronger.

This means that their numbers are steadily decreasing, but as a result, the few that remain have become more powerful. This continued until one of them became a terrifying being, possessing not only overwhelming power, but also its own reasoning and judgment.

Linglong had told Bai Ze before that second-order creatures could make judgments and could also have simple ideas. While they're not particularly intelligent, they're not incredibly stupid like those unclassified creatures.

Luckily, you didn't encounter any powerful creatures along the way.

Nor did large swarms of insects or beasts suddenly appear and attack the trio.

"We shouldn't be far from camp." Wu Yijun paused, looked around, and pointed to a strange rock in front of him, "I remember telling my grandfather that this rock was shaped like an alien, and after walking for less than forty minutes, we arrived at the military region. ”

Bai Ze and Shangguan Bingxue looked at her with strange eyes, then silently glanced at each other, and then looked at the strange rock.

"Indeed...... Looks like an alien from an anime. Bai Ze couldn't cry or laugh when he saw the stone with a swollen head, bulging eyes, and a petite body.

Shangguan Bingxue shook his head, did not comment, and continued to walk forward. However, at this moment, several roars were heard from all directions, and her steps immediately froze.

Rumble!

The ground began to shake violently, as if a sudden earthquake had occurred, shaking all three of them to their feet.

"Ahh Wu Yijun screamed in surprise and almost fell, Shangguan Bingxue hurriedly hugged his best friend and made a few icicles to support his body.

Bai Ze's face changed slightly, and he squinted his eyes and looked ahead.

Even for him, it was a bit difficult to stand still and keep his balance. Therefore, he had to take small steps sideways to adapt to the terrible earth tremors.
