Chapter 244 Extreme! It's Really Too Extreme!
[Congratulations, your physical attributes have been improved! ]
[Congratulations...]
After the Iron Body skill advanced prompt message was transmitted, several prompt messages popped up on Shen Bailian's panel one after another.
However, he had no time to care about these at this time.
Because Shen Bailian's body was now experiencing a severe pain sweeping from every tiny part of his limbs and bones, like a tide.
Wave after wave, each wave was stronger than the last.
This severe pain was unprecedented, and Shen Bailian had never experienced it before.
Under this severe pain, Shen Bailian felt that his soul was being tightly grasped by someone as if it had a physical body, and then slowly rubbed and crushed in the palm of his hand, and then slowly torn apart.
Every minute and every second was an extreme challenge to his will.
It was not as targeted as a flesh wound, but a pain that penetrated the bone marrow and was heart-wrenching. With every heartbeat, the pain surged like a tide.
Wave after wave, leaving no chance for anyone to breathe.
But this pain was like tens of millions of tiny insects, wandering and gnawing in the tendons and veins of the limbs and bones, every inch of skin and every inch of bone was trembling and wailing.
Just when this pain reached its peak.
"Hu——"
Shen Bailian, whose face was pale, suddenly let out a long breath. In the sound of his thunderous heartbeat, his blood was stimulated like a rushing river.
Hot!
It was too hot!
Shen Bailian's face suddenly turned red. He felt like he had entered a high-temperature and high-pressure furnace from the Ten Thousand Snakes Cave. He felt hot all over and his tendons and muscles seemed to melt.
And.
"Dang——!" "Dang——!"
"Clang~Clang~"
Shen Bailian seemed to have hallucinations. The sound of hammers hitting forging rang continuously in his ears. The source of this sound came from inside his body, not from the outside world.
"Tick-tick~tick-tick~"
Dense beads of sweat gathered into bean-sized drops of sweat, and then poured from all parts of Shen Bailian's body to the ground like a rainstorm, blurring his vision, soaking his clothes, as if even the last bit of strength to raise his hand was slowly draining away...
At this moment, time seemed to have lost its meaning in Shen Bailian's body, and only the pain from all parts of his body followed him like a shadow, endlessly.
It is no more than this that every second feels like a year.
Shen Bailian had been forcing himself to not make any sound under this severe pain. He did not do nothing because of this, but forced himself to calm down and began to slowly practice the Eight-in-One Great Sun Visualization Method.
Unexpectedly, the pain actually decreased a little.
Although the reduction was only a pitiful one thousandth, he was still keenly aware of it.
Time passed by bit by bit, and I don't know how much time has passed.
Shen Bailian suddenly felt that the severe pain was slowly receding, and an extremely comfortable feeling suddenly surged into his heart, as if he had fallen into a gentle land that made people sink.
But his consciousness was extremely clear.
"It's finally over." Shen Bailian suddenly realized that the advancement of the Iron Body skill this time should be almost over, otherwise there would not be such a feeling in his body.
"But."
"Will this kind of severe pain surge up when the Iron Body skill is advanced in the future, no, it should be when the Iron Body is advanced?" When Shen Bailian thought of this, he glanced at a pool of sweat on the ground and felt a little chilly.
Although he likes skill advancement, he doesn't like the process.
Even when he was receiving the Sun-level Dragon Gate Seed, his body had completely melted, but he had never experienced the piercing pain before.
Impressive.
"No, absolutely not, this should be a special case, a special case caused by the natural advancement of skills." Shen Bailian hurriedly shook his head and dispelled the messy thoughts in his heart.
"Hu~"
Shen Bailian stopped and adjusted his breath, letting out a long breath.
If Chen Yifei, Li Feiyu and others were here, they would definitely be shocked.
Because after the breath came out, it was condensed and did not disperse, just like a sharp arrow that shot out, and shot on the rock wall with a swish, breaking a hole less than one centimeter.
If it hit an ordinary person, it would probably directly break a big wound.
However, Shen Bailian did not take it to heart, because there was a bigger surprise waiting for him.
It was just a moment.
Shen Bailian's body and mind were completely calm, as if he was in a vast and endless ocean of tranquility. All the disturbances, distractions, and severe pain were swallowed up by this deep tranquility.
His original force wandered in his legs, and after crossing them, he sat cross-legged on the wet ground, his eyes closed, concentrating on every subtle change in himself.
After the skill Iron Body was upgraded to Steel Body, his body was greatly different from before.
It was a change beyond the mortal realm. The tendons, bones and muscles were no longer just flesh and blood, but were infused with the texture of steel. While the impact resistance and strength were improved, the toughness also increased.
Each tendon and bone seemed to be made of fine steel that had been tempered a thousand times, and seemed to have the property of being indestructible.
Now, any muscle fiber in Shen Bailian's muscles can match the strength of three or four muscle fibers before the Iron Body skill was advanced.
And he can deeply feel that there are extremely active and vigorous life breaths inside his body, and his flesh and blood seem to be cheering.
It's like even after he was seriously injured like a broken arm, he can still recover naturally without the help of a medical cabin if he has enough energy.
And the moment Shen Bailian breathes, it seems that there is a glow in the pores of his body, and the strength of his body is soaring. The physical strength that was originally lost due to the previous severe pain is increasing at a speed two or three times faster than before.
"It seems that the gains this time are probably far beyond my imagination." Shen Bailian simply clenched his palm, and at the moment when his fingers collided with the palm, there was a faint clanging sound of metal collision.
In the past, this was simply impossible.
"Take a look at the panel." The Iron Body skill had just been upgraded to the Iron Body for only half a day, and Shen Bailian had not yet completely adapted to this power. Without looking at the panel, he could not be sure how much his physical attribute value had increased.
His mind moved slightly, and the ink panel suddenly appeared in front of him——
[Character Level: LV10 (2656/4000)]
[Physique: 23.0; Spirit: 22.6]
[……]
[Passive Skill: Iron Body LV1 (25/400)]
[Skill Points: 0]
[Solidification Points: 0]
[Divine Substance: 11555]
"Hiss~" Shen Bailian looked at the bright physical attribute value of 23.0 on the panel and couldn't help but take a breath.
Extreme!
It's really too extreme!
From strengthening the body to the Iron Body, and then from the Iron Body to the Iron Body, this advanced skill group has been passed down from generation to generation to only increase the physical attribute value, but not the mental attribute value.
How to improve the spiritual attribute value?
It's very simple.
It hurts.
Strong pain is also a kind of spiritual training that cannot be underestimated, but it has always been a way of training spiritual power that is not advocated.
Because this degree is not easy to control, and the requirements for the resources to nourish the spiritual power are also very high, which cannot be solved by ordinary first-level and second-level natural treasures.
As for the third-level and above spiritual treasures that nourish the spiritual power?
Wouldn't it be better to use that money to exchange for other more comfortable ways to improve the spiritual power? For example, high-level visualization method, or low-level visualization method.
Isn't it good?
"However, since the name of this advanced skill is Iron Body, will it have some characteristics like fishing skills?" Shen Bailian pondered secretly.
He was not thinking of other characteristics, but the memory of Dachao carried by Superman, previous life, or wisdom.
In this world, Dachao is not absent.
Because this world before the new era, that is, before 1999, except for the changes in the world structure, there is almost no change from the world process in Shen Bailian's memory. Things and people that should exist exist.
The same is true for Superman in the comics.
In the movie version of Superman, the basis of all his abilities is the body of steel, which is derived from the yellow sun to be precise.
Since they are all the same name, can he also become stronger by basking in the sun?
Thinking of this, Shen Bailian couldn't help but get a little excited. He punched forward without hesitation.
In an instant.
"Boom! Boom boom!"
The fist wind whistled, with a deafening roar, the air made a harsh explosion, and it shook violently, rushing straight to the cliff at a terrifying speed that exceeded several times the speed of sound.
As the fist fell, the cliff suffered an unimaginable impact and collapsed instantly. Huge stones were scattered under the impact, and dust and gravel intertwined into a chaotic storm, covering everything around.
The hill, which was formed by the shock wave of the explosion and was as high as a hundred meters, completely lost the hope of becoming a mountain after Shen Bailian's attack.
It turned into a pool of rubble and fell on the ground.
Shen Bailian's eyes showed a slight fluctuation, and then he took advantage of the force under his feet. With a bang, his body rushed out like a speeding locomotive, facing the storm of stones.
All the boulders were like tofu in front of his steel body.
It broke at the touch!
A moment later~
"No... It still doesn't work." Shen Bailian stood in the sky tens of thousands of meters high, and the strong wind whistled, but it could not affect his slightly lost mood.
At this height, the sunlight can shine on his body without scruples.
However, even though he had waited for more than ten minutes, he still didn't feel that his physical fitness had improved.
This means that the way to become stronger by basking in the sun is completely locked.
"Forget it." Shen Bailian sighed, then his brows slowly relaxed, just like a wrinkled piece of clothing being ironed flat, and whispered:
"Today's harvest is already rich enough. Not only did I obtain more than 15,000 points of divine substances, but I also opened up another function of the origin talent."
"And I also successfully upgraded the Iron Body skill to the Iron Body, and my physical strength reached 80% of the previous martial arts teacher's Force Battle Armor."
This is an extremely terrifying data.
Warriors are synonymous with high attack and high defense.
However, for warriors at the Pihai Realm and above, high defense refers not only to physical strength, but also to the strength of the condensed Force Armor.
Generally speaking, a warrior at the early and middle stages of the Pihai Realm can withstand the bombardment of multiple high-explosive missiles head-on without losing combat effectiveness just by relying on physical strength.
Even so, compared with the Force Armor, the physical strength of the former is only one-tenth of the latter in terms of pure defense strength, and the physical strength coefficient is recorded as 0.1.
Some martial arts geniuses who are good at horizontal training, or bloodline warriors, may have a physical strength of 20% of their own Force Armor, that is, a physical strength coefficient of 0.2.
However, under the influence of the Iron Body, the initial value of Shen Bailian's physical strength coefficient reached a terrifying 0.8.
And now the Iron Body is only level one, and the maximum level is level five.
By then, how much can his physical strength coefficient reach?
It's hard to imagine.
"Since it's hard to imagine, why not give it a try?" Shen Bailian looked at the remaining 11,555 points of divine substance on the panel, and the corners of his mouth rose wildly.
He showed a wanton smile.
11,555 points of divine substance are enough to exchange for two skill points, and Shen Bailian is ready to invest all of them in the skill of Iron Body.
If everything goes well, his physical fitness can be at least improved to level 24.5, and he can directly become a warrior in the middle stage of the Sea Breaking Realm.
When Shen Bailian thought of this, his mind moved slightly, and in a flash, the divine substance on his panel was reduced from 11,555 points to 1,557 points, and the 0 behind the skill point was increased to 2.
Shen Bailian did not continue to test the Iron Body, and used the Eye of God to quickly sweep the wilderness below, and soon found a place suitable for retreat.
"Boom!"
His figure was like an arrow.
Amid the deafening roar, Shen Bailian was like a meteorite falling from the sky, passing through the clouds and rushing towards the destination at a speed exceeding two Machs.
…
The northern border of Daxia.
The afterglow of the setting sun dyed the sky red like blood.
The tragic light, which was almost horizontal, ruthlessly hit the thousand-meter-high steel Great Wall, coating it with a layer of shining golden light.
And on the wall, through the thick, uncleaned bloodstains, some "ghostly"-like patterns can be clearly seen, and there is an unknown energy with a faint golden light surging in it.
Suddenly.
Boom!!!
A low and shocking roar resounded through the sky, and the sun shone through the scattered clouds, casting mottled light and shadows on the ground.
Several huge figures, like burning flames, with rust and huge wounds on their armor, quickly passed through the sky and drove outside the city wall.
The machine soul was delighted!
Suddenly.
"Roar!"
"Roar--!" "Ang!!!"
The sound was like thunder, and the sound of angry thunder rolled and spread. Several shining hazy lights, terrifying high-energy particles instantly rose into the sky and hit a Nirvana Fire Phoenix mecha.
In the terrifying energy shock wave, the broken Nirvana Fire Phoenix was immediately pierced, and the machine soul let out a mournful cry and fell down.
"This, this... is this Hulao Pass?" Li Feiyu stuck his head out of the window, looked far away, looked up at the broken-winged fire phoenix, and his calm eyes fluctuated slightly.
The next moment. (End of this chapter)
