170: Ran Quan's Promotion

Before long, Lin Zifeng brought out the prepared dishes.

"Wow! Your cooking skills have improved today!" Spiritual Crane Taoist said, his eyes filled with pleasant surprise as he smelled the aroma.

"Hahaha~ This is cooking skill exchanged from the System, it's very good!" Lin Zifeng said with a smile.

"It even has this function? That's truly excellent!" Spiritual Crane Taoist nodded and smiled.

Ever since his disciple obtained this supreme treasure called the "System," his fate had changed. He was already very satisfied. As for other things, he just wanted to help his disciple develop the Xian He Men well and lay a solid foundation for him!

With such a supreme treasure assisting his disciple, his future world would certainly not be limited to this one place.

And what he had to do was to be his disciple's strongest backing!

"Come on, come on! Eat!" Spiritual Crane Taoist quickly urged Lin Zifeng to pick up his chopsticks.

The master and disciple clinked cups and began to eat.

After they had eaten their fill, the two tidied up a bit and then began to prepare for the subsequent matters.

The Immortal Crane Sect's banner needed to be given to the caravan.

Then, the territory here also needed to be set up, and Lin Zifeng also needed to work with Spiritual Crane Taoist to properly construct the mountain gate.

To say nothing else, at least the surface had to be done well.

Lin Zifeng and his master discussed it and both believed that the Golden Saber Sect would definitely send people to "witness" it.

And they would certainly arrive within a short period.

However, in such a short time, the sect definitely could not be established.

After all, how could they, master and disciple, be so fast?

Although they could invite people from nearby towns to come here for construction.

But it still wouldn't be fast enough.

So, after thinking it over, Lin Zifeng came up with a plan.

Because it had been "boasted" before that it was a hidden sect.

Therefore, it was originally located within the Immortal Spirit Mountain Range, and since Immortal Crane Mountain here was relatively outside, they planned to build a "small sect" at the entrance.

With their speed, they could make it in time.

Outwardly, it could be said to be a "transit station" because the sect was in the big mountains and inconvenient.

So Lin Zifeng and Spiritual Crane Taoist began to act as laborers.

...

Wasteland World - Saida World.

On the Ground World, Ran Quan was unlucky and encountered a monster. This monster had a dog's head, but its tail was two snakes, and it had two bat wings on its back with claws on them.

In a critical moment, Ran Quan couldn't care less and directly used his Mantis Blades to successfully kill it.

Pfft!

Ran Quan thrust out an arm, and the Mantis Blades pierced through the monster's head.

Pfft~ Ran Quan shook his hand, looking at the Mantis Blades that were still smooth and free of any bloodstains, and then retracted them into his arm with a whoosh.

Ran Quan looked at the hole in his arm... his protective suit couldn't block it...

"Will I die here...?" Ran Quan looked at his entire forearm exposed, letting the outside radiation shine on it.

Ran Quan didn't care about anything else. He quickly put the monster directly into his System Space. If it were other "adventurers," they would definitely carry various items, but he didn't, because he had the System Space.

Ran Quan quickly returned to The Ground.

Ran Quan quickly returned along the original path.

He didn't know what effects he would have... He had walked for an hour, although he would explore as he went, greatly reducing the distance he covered.

So even if he ran back now, it would probably take ten to twenty minutes to get back to the passage.

"Hoo~ Hoo~" Ran Quan gasped violently. The continuous high-speed running severely depleted his stamina.

There was no other way, this could be deadly! He couldn't go slow.

With a physical quality of 1.8, Ran Quan couldn't last much longer. Ten minutes later, Ran Quan stopped, slowing to a walk, gasping for air under his breathing mask.

He didn't dare to exhaust all his stamina. If he encountered anything, then he would truly be G-ed.

"Emmm..." Ran Quan felt his condition. It seemed... there was no reaction?

Ran Quan looked at his exposed arm.

His skin looked very real, but in reality, it had a metallic sheen.

"Perhaps... the Mantis Blades have already transformed my arm. This radiation is useless to me? And there's also a subcutaneous armor implant... Perhaps... I really don't need to care too much about this radiation, I just need to not expose all other parts of my body?" Ran Quan pondered, planning to give it a try!

At worst, he'd die! A dead man fears no evil, but if he doesn't die, he'll live forever!

Ran Quan felt no adverse reactions, not even a single symptom, so he simply stood still and waited for a while.

Another ten minutes passed, and he still felt nothing.

"It seems to be true!" Ran Quan was overjoyed. This was simply a great thing for him! His breathing mask still had over two hours of life left, so he could explore for about another hour, and then the remaining time would be for returning.

Next time, he could go for even longer!

Moreover, he didn't need transportation or anything like that, with the System Space as storage...

Perfect! Ran Quan's eyes lit up: "Since that's the case... two hours... should be enough to get to the next passage..."

Ran Quan was referring to another passage in the Eleventh District, which was closer to the 10th District.

Anyway, he was homeless.

Once there, he would sell some of the monster resources, earn some money, then exchange it for purifier for his breathing mask... and then go to The Ground again! And then go find more monsters...

Ran Quan quickly thought to himself... He needed to develop as quickly as possible, and then... get revenge!

Ran Quan glanced at his "attributes."

Then he was pleasantly surprised to find that his source points had increased to 2655 points.

"2655 points! Can I upgrade...?" Ran Quan looked at what he could upgrade:

Talent:

Strong Physique I: Possesses a stronger physique (Upgrade requires 1000 source points)

Implants:

Subcutaneous Armor Level 1: Increases defense (Upgrade requires 1000 source points)

Reflex Regulator Level 1: Increases nerve reflex ability (Upgrade requires 1000 source points)

Mantis Blades Level 1 (Upgrade requires 1000 source points)

Ran Quan didn't rush to upgrade, but instead opened the mall to take a look.

He found a few recommended "discounted items":

Full Resistance: A hybrid implant that protects the body from the inside out, increasing resistance to various bacteria, radiation, etc. Sale: 200 (1000) source points.

Muscle Enhancement: Increases muscle strength and toughness. Sale: 200 (1000) source points.

Ran Quan directly purchased both, spending 400 source points, which gave him two more implants, especially the Full Resistance implant, which was equivalent to giving him a safer protection!

After purchasing, they were directly implanted, and he still had 2200 source points left, which he could use for more upgrades.

Ran Quan chose to upgrade Strong Physique and Full Resistance.

He spent 2000 source points, leaving 260 source points.

Strong Physique II (Upgrade requires 10,000 source points)

Full Resistance II (Upgrade requires 10,000 source points)

With the upgrade of Strong Physique, Ran Quan felt his body become stronger, and his physical quality increased from 1.8 to 4.1.

The increase from II was much greater than from I!

Perhaps it also included the effects of Muscle Enhancement?

Ran Quan didn't delve into the details. Now, he felt "invincible"!
