Chapter 711 - 215: Jile Faction, Benefit Intelligence
[Purchase successful, 39,000 Jile Points deducted, starting "Mirage Body" bloodline enhancement.]
The Strengthening Tablet released a black light that enveloped Yang Xiu, forming an Energy Cocoon.
He immediately felt as if his body had turned into a boiling Melting Furnace.
Blood transformed into scalding mist in his veins, every bone emitting a cry of unbearable burden.
The Black Energy continuously washed over his body, like a Heavy Hammer striking him again and again.
Looking down, he saw his skin covered in fine cracks.
Agonizing pain pierced his bone marrow like thousands of red-hot steel needles, and Yang Xiu raised his head, letting out a beast-like howl.
No anesthesia, no mental blocking... The process of bloodline enhancement required him to bear it with his Willpower, and he watched his bones shatter inch by inch beneath the cracked skin, but under the shroud of Black Energy, no blood spurted out, only droplets slowly seeped out.
At this moment, black mist rose from the gaps in his bones, reassembling the broken bones into a translucent glass-like structure.
This enhancement proceeded both internally and externally, as if an invisible surgeon was controlling this bizarre bloodline replacement surgery.
Calling it a bloodline, in Yang Xiu’s view, was more like a body replacement.
"Shit!"
Yang Xiu gritted his teeth, his ribs exploding within his chest cavity.
Under intense pain, he nearly fainted.
Just as Yang Xiu thought he might not endure this painful transformation, his pupils suddenly shrank into two silver lines.
On his retina, originally stained with blood, appeared kaleidoscopic phantom lights.
Countless intertwined fantastical scenes flowed in his vision, giant whales dancing on coral reefs, bronze cities suspended in clouds, burning phosphorus oases... the blood memory of the Mirage Body was rewriting his Life code, but strangely, the pain disappeared.
The issue was, there was no warning sound in his mind indicating that the pain perception completely triggering hundred percent blocking mode had not been activated.
This feeling was peculiar, countless illusions flickering before his eyes, each bringing him a sense of pleasure.
"Brother Guide, what’s going on?"
[Jile Brand Anesthetic is being used in a small amount on you, fearing that the transformation might seriously affect your mental state. If a foreign visitor accidentally enters the Jile Palace, the dose used by the Lord of Jile is 300,000 times what you’re enduring now.]
Listening to the explanation from Guidance, Yang Xiu immediately understood the reason.
He was now an elite player, no longer a rookie that the Lord of Welfare could casually sacrifice.
Treatment naturally differed.
The transformation continued, no longer did blood droplets seep through the cracks, but rather a pearl-like mist.
This mist did not dissipate but condensed into liquid, following the cracks and flowing back into the body, where the texture rejuvenated like living jade, self-repairing.
No longer in pain, Yang Xiu looked down at his heart.
Under the skeletal shell, within his chest, no longer beat a living heart but a nebula-like vortex constantly collapsing and expanding.
Crack!
A crisp sound emanated from behind, and Yang Xiu switched to Guidance View.
In astonishment, he discovered that his entire spine broke in the middle, instantly vaporizing into countless silver threads upon detaching from his body.
These recombined with the black light enveloping his surroundings, forming anew.
When the new spine reformed, it was covered with flowing dark patterns, seemingly able to decompose into mist with just a thought.
Other parts of his body also reconstructed at this time.
With the reconstruction of the last bone, Yang Xiu trembled as he raised his palm, seeing three spiral light patterns, each corresponding to a core ability of the Mirage Body heritage.
Switched to Guidance View to look at himself.
The cracks covering his entire body twisted as well, and his old skin crumbled like a weathered clay figure.
Newly born skin emitted a soft glow like moonlight passing through thin clouds.
When the last wisp of mist drilled into his body, Yang Xiu heavily fell to the ground.
A moonlight-like radiance flowed beneath his skin, and with every breath, it left a short-lived mist trace in the air.
His lifted palm displayed an unprecedented transparency, as if it could decompose into billions of floating crystals at any moment.
[Initial Mirage Body transformation complete, Awakening Degree 13.7%.]
The cold prompt of the Jile Main God echoed in his mind.
He had completely changed his appearance, viewing himself through the Guidance View, he had a youthful visage and silver-blue vertical pupils.
Trying to clench his fist, his entire forearm abruptly misted into a translucent state, and with more effort, his body shattered little by little into small crystals.
With a single thought, his right arm reassembled.
But still, some crystals clung to the skin’s surface, unable to merge into the body.
Yang Xiu knew this was due to his lack of control over the new body.
This is the biggest difference between Bliss Players and their original players.
Every time enhancement ended, he needed to familiarize himself with his abilities in the illusion provided by the training space, unable to perfectly master them like the Life Soul abilities.
Crack!
The Black Energy Cocoon shattered.
Yang Xiu’s figure reappeared in front of the Black Stone Tablet.
Turning his head to look, he found his teammates also enveloped in Black Light Cocoons, all undergoing bloodline enhancement transformation.
Once again touching the stone tablet, Yang Xiu spent points to enter the training space.
He needed to quickly master the use of this new body, having to explore it all through the manual.
Half a day later, Yang Xiu returned to the Death Space.
His teammates also returned from the training space at this time.
Looking up.
The Stone Statue chose the "Mountain Shattering Body Bloodline" enhancement.
