77: Jiang Hao: I really want to become stronger!

After eating, Jiang Hao said goodbye to the others and returned to the hotel arranged by the Martial School.

I wonder what talent I will Awaken this time when my Mental Energy Breaks through to Rank Eight.

I hope I get a talent for infinite Mental Energy.

Jiang Hao joked.

[Ding! The life crystal has finished charging. A total of 130,000 points have been obtained!]

The usual routine, time to allocate points.

The limit of Rank Eight, Break through for me!

As 120,000 points were deducted.

He had long grown accustomed to the drastic changes in his body and spirit.

[physique: 80→81 Rank Eight] +

[Mental Energy: 77→81 Rank Eight] +

[Ding! Congratulations, Host, for Awakening the talent—Soul Firewall!]

[Soul Firewall: The constantly tempered will has become extraordinary. Mental resistance is greatly enhanced, granting immunity to certain Ranks of Mental pollution. When suffering high-tier contamination, consuming a large amount of Mental Energy can instantly dispel it!]

[Note: This talent was enhanced by Transcender I!]

Jiang Hao decided to strike while the iron was hot, grabbing the crystal ball to complete the absorption of the Chaos Law.

[Ding! Detecting that the Host is in a safe environment!]

[Ding! The amount of Chaos Law is substantial. Complete absorption is estimated to take 48 hours. Do you wish to enable Accelerated Mode?]

[Accelerated Mode slowly deducts points to help the Host quickly and perfectly absorb the Chaos Law!]

[This mode can be interrupted at any time. Enable!]

Accelerated Mode?

Jiang Hao looked painfully at the remaining points.

No way.

These were the points he had sweated over and painstakingly accumulated!

He gritted his teeth and chose acceleration!

After all, the mere ten thousand-plus remaining points weren't worth spending two days sitting idly to absorb!

Instantly, a power seemed to descend from a higher dimension.

The Chaos Law within the crystal ball was continuously drawn out.

It coiled around Jiang Hao, dyeing his entire body the color of Chaos.

[Chaos Law Accelerated Absorption in progress...]

The next day, noon.

Jiang Hao slowly opened his eyes.

A pitch-black great sun seemed to manifest in his eyes; all things were void, and all creation ended.

Everything returned to Chaos!!!

The surface of the crystal ball was covered in cracks, and it was completely empty inside.

[Ding! Chaos Law absorption complete! It has achieved Fusion with the Host's original Chaos Law, gaining enhancement and reinforcement!]

[Current Chaos Law capacity is: 2% (Fully adapted to self)]

[points: 100]

[Evaluation: Leading by a large step makes one a Genius, leading an era makes one a great person! And you have long surpassed the Peak!]

The Chaos Law capacity wasn't displayed before, meaning it wasn't even 1%?

Jiang Hao now looked like an ordinary person who had not Cultivated Yuan Power.

There was not the slightest fluctuation of Yuan Power, and he couldn't even sense the aura of life force!

Everything was void and Chaos.

It wasn't a reduction in presence; rather, some threads of fate on his body had been completely severed!

The slight Karma he had with the world was also devoured and decomposed.

If those Martial Artists stuck at the Peak Saint Rank knew about this, they would probably be jealous enough to explode!

The gains were far more than just these:

Jiang Hao's figure was clearly right in front of him, yet he seemed to be everywhere at once.

The next moment, he seemed far away, untouchable no matter what.

This was because the talent—Perfect Space Affinity—had been strengthened by the Chaos Law!

He believed it wouldn't be long before he could additionally Awaken the Space Law.

As for other basic battle power improvements.

They were minor things.

Just so-so.

Saying it out loud might discourage those Prodigies on the First Sequence List.

After all, anyone who saw Jiang Hao's ridiculously fast speed of upgrading and becoming stronger.

Would doubt whether they were Cultivating fake Yuan Power!

When the list updates next month, I wonder how many people will suffer a broken Dao Heart.

I hope that when the Global Martial Arts School Freshman League comes around, it won't just be my team participating while everyone else forfeits.

Jiang Hao stretched lazily, satisfied, and prepared to go eat something good.

As I am now, I should be able to instantly kill most Rank Eight Martial Artists!

And given my current situation, wouldn't bringing the Hidden Soul allow me to impersonate an assassin?

Just as he walked out of the hotel, ready to find a local specialty dish to try.

Principal Xia appeared, bringing the seven teammates who had been discharged from the hospital.

Jiang Hao? You actually succeeded in absorbing it in just one night!

Principal Xia looked at the figure that even he could barely perceive.

In the past, he could at least gauge how much stronger Jiang Hao had become and have an idea.

Now, after absorbing the Chaos Law, everything was concealed.

This passive effect was simply a great aid for Playing the Pig to Eat the Tiger!

Although Jiang Hao didn't need to play the pig at all, since every Saint Rank on Blue Star knew about him.

Yes, I gained a little!

He looked at his teammates behind Principal Xia.

Hello everyone! Also, Xia Pengcheng, did you secretly find someone for treatment?

Jiang Hao said suspiciously, seeing Xia Pengcheng, who had been mummy-skinned yesterday, restored to normal today.

Xia Pengcheng's face darkened:

I openly gave them resources and received treatment through fair trade!

The Vice-Captain stood silently behind, seemingly spacing out.

Feng Qiluo finally woke up after a night of unconsciousness.

Although her face was a little pale, everything was worth it!

This time, having the opportunity to fight an enemy who had reached Rank Six and mastered a Law allowed her to perfect her own combat techniques and style.

Her comprehension of the Wind-Lightning Law deepened.

Her Yuan Power became more solid. In less than half a month, she was confident she could Break through to the Second Heaven!

Not only that.

She felt that because she had been stunned by Mental attacks or fallen unconscious due to Mental Energy exhaustion multiple times.

Her spirit had actually grown!

Although not by much, she was genuinely getting stronger.

She had now given up competing with Jiang Hao; he was a Cheat-Stream Martial Artist.

She should honestly just compete with the other Prodigies on the First Sequence List.

Seeing that everyone had no lasting side effects, Jiang Hao felt relieved.

It seemed these teammates also had some capability; like Gu Siyuan, they broke out of the dream state quickly.

Oh right, the Secret Realm Boss asked me to apologize to you all, saying he didn't expect anyone to actually get trapped by such a simple dream!

Hmm, Sect Master Mo probably meant that, right?

Jiang Hao thought uncertainly.

Xia Pengcheng and Yu Xiyao lowered their heads silently, while Yan Yanyi awkwardly scratched his head.

Xing Yingyue expressionlessly turned her head to look at the unique architecture nearby.

Gu Siyuan looked at Jiang Hao, who appeared completely normal without the concealment of Chaos color, and thought:

God Jiang, did you Break through again?

Before, the Prophecy at least showed a chaotic human figure. Now it's just a blank slate?!

Principal Xia, when are we returning to the Martial School?

Jiang Hao asked. He wanted to visit a place in Jiulong Province where there were many Otherworld Beasts.

Maybe he could pick up some high-Rank Otherworld Beasts that nobody wanted?

Principal Xia looked at the seven people and shook his head.

Among the conditions agreed upon by Guhuang Province this time, there is a small Secret Realm that can steadily raise one's Realm!

Our Shenzhou Martial Arts School has 30 slots. That Secret Realm is a great place! The Yuan Power there is even more abundant than in our Shenzhou Martial Arts School's Secret Realm!

Normally, our school only gets 20 slots each year.

Oh? A welfare-type Secret Realm!

Jiang Hao thought about it. It would be faster for him to go smurfing among the Otherworld Beasts.

I won't go. Principal Xia, do you have any connections to the Otherworld Beast area in Jiulong Province?

Principal Xia thought for a moment and said:

Are you talking about the place that has a small, natural Spatial Passage connected to Exotic World No. 2?

Yes, that works. Among the troops stationed there, several Ninth Rank Martial Artists belong to my Xia Family's Subordinate Forces.

You can just go directly when the time comes. The Materials you hunt can be sold directly to the military.

Jiang Hao was overjoyed:

Thank you, Principal Xia!

This time, I'm definitely going to soar to the sky!
