Just as Zhang Chen was pondering which skill to upgrade first, the Fox Spirit impatiently urged, "Are you done yet? Hurry up and make your move, lest we alert the True Dragon’s Resentment and lose the advantage."
"Why are you in such a rush?" Zhang Chen responded irritably. "I’m completely unfamiliar with this place. I need to scout thoroughly before taking action."
"Just do it quickly, don’t keep me waiting too long," the Fox Spirit replied, equally irritable.
Zhang Chen ignored the Fox Spirit and instead focused his eyes on his own Golden Finger Interface:
[Name: Zhang Chen]
[Skill 1 (Level 3): Light of the True God—> Retain (0/50000)]
[Skill 2 (Unranked): Dragon Qi (0/2000)]
[Skill 3 (Unranked): Blood Control (8/100000)]
[Skill 4 (Unranked): Water Control Technique (0/1000)]
[Points: 203680]
"Upgrade Skill 1!"
Zhang Chen’s gaze settled on Skill 1, muttering to himself silently.
The next moment, Skill 1 twisted, and the interface transformed:
[Skill 1 (Level 4): Light of the True God—> Automatic Cruise (0/200000)]
"Automatic Cruise?" Zhang Chen looked at the Golden Finger, a large question mark appearing above his head. Why does this skill seem so strange?
At this moment, a stream of information poured into Zhang Chen’s mind, and a look of astonishment flashed in his eyes:
"I see."
Previously, Light of the True God could retain its essence within an object, but now it gained an automatic attack function. This means Zhang Chen can infuse golden light into an object, leave it somewhere, and if anything strange passes by, the golden light will automatically attack it.
"Interesting, but why hasn’t the power of Light of the True God been boosted? Does it mean the power doesn’t need upgrading at all, and can already harm high-level anomalies? Indeed, back at level 2, the Fox Spirit seemed to be restrained by me, so now upgrading aims to enhance the technique of Light of the True God."
After spending 50,000 Skill Points, Zhang Chen’s gaze scanned the interface, leaving him with 153680 points.
It’s not enough to raise Light of the True God to level 5, which requires 200,000 points. Then Zhang Chen’s gaze swept over the Golden Finger Interface:
[Name: Zhang Chen]
[Skill 1 (Level 4): Light of the True God—> Automatic Cruise (0/200000)]
[Skill 2 (Unranked): Dragon Qi (0/2000)]
[Skill 3 (Unranked): Blood Control (8/100000)]
[Skill 4 (Unranked): Water Control Technique (0/1000)]
[Points: 153672]
Zhang Chen’s gaze moved to the Water Control Technique. Water Control Technique is certainly a practical skill, but for Zhang Chen, it’s too limited, only effective in places with water.
"If Water Control Technique is upgraded, it might let me control the water in others’ bodies. That would be fantastic, with unparalleled lethality. Ordinary people would seem inferior to me," Zhang Chen murmured, uncertain about how high Water Control Technique must be upgraded to gain this ability.
Thus, Zhang Chen shifted his focus to Dragon Qi.
Dragon Qi and the True Dragon’s Fate here are mysteriously interconnected. Ever since arriving, Zhang Chen’s Dragon Qi started to stir, indicating unknown implications. If upgraded, Dragon Qi might yield unexpected surprises.
But after a moment’s thought, Zhang Chen temporarily set aside Dragon Qi Skill, instead focusing on the Blood Control Skill.
Blood Control Skill is currently most crucial to him, primarily because it might grant the ability to control others’ blood. If achieved, Zhang Chen would be virtually invincible.
If unable to control others’ blood, Blood Control Technique’s healing would certainly reach unbelievable levels. If it could regenerate flesh and bone, it would increase his chances of survival when pitted against the Fox Spirit in a fight to the death.
"I have 150,000 points left. Let’s upgrade Blood Control to see what surprises it may bring," Zhang Chen thought subconsciously. In the next moment, the Blood Control Skill interface began to warp and change. Under Zhang Chen’s expectant gaze, the Blood Control Technique slightly twisted and transformed into a new skill:
[Skill 3 (Level 1): Transformed Blood Bat (0/1000000)]
"What is this?" Zhang Chen stared at the new skill text on the interface, startled, then as the information streamed in, his eyes revealed a peculiar look:
"How should I describe this skill?"
The third skill can transform blood in the human body into vampire bats, which leave the body to suck blood externally, and the absorbed blood is directly replenished back to the body. The maximum range is no more than ten kilometers from the body!
If you say this skill is strong, its destructive power is virtually nonexistent. The bats are merely ordinary. Moreover, they have no function beyond bloodsucking.
If you say it isn’t strong?
It can fly out on its own. If a person is trapped in a desperate situation, or heavily injured, the vampire bats can detach and suck blood, which is extraordinary.
Crucially, though the bats take a bat form, they can transform into liquid, passing through crevices.
Or it could be used as eyes – as soon as the vampire bats return, their journey is entirely observable, with images sent to my mind.
