Stronger with Crimson Modifier

Chapter 353 - 328: Godmaking [1]

WHOOSH!

Just then.

The Young Man’s eyes snapped open. In an instant, a pair of crimson, vertical pupils appeared.

They vanished again with extreme speed.

As if it were just an illusion.

"Oh? An unexpected gain like this?"

Hu Qi lowered his head slightly and mumbled to himself.

A thoughtful look flickered in his eyes.

A moment ago, he had received a message from the Clone created by his Spirit Seed Technique.

This information contained details concerning Hu San and the Blood Word Script.

As well as a certain hypothesis.

’This way, I might be able to speed up the process of accumulating my essence.’

Hu Qi carefully recalled the information he had just obtained, his gaze shifting slightly.

Then, he extended a long, slender finger and lightly tapped his own forehead.

The instant his fingertip touched his forehead, a wisp of distorted, translucent, dark-silver light appeared.

As if pulled by some powerful force, it was slowly and arduously drawn out from his forehead.

This wisp of light was no ordinary thing; it was a thread of his own purest essence.

However, the moment this thread of essence appeared, Hu Qi’s once-warm complexion instantly turned deathly pale, drained of all color.

The aura around his body, like a surging sea in a violent storm, instantly fell into a state of intense, unstable fluctuation.

Inside his head, it felt as if tens of thousands of sharp needles were frantically stabbing him, the pain washing over him like a raging tide.

This pain was like the bone-deep exhaustion and headache an ordinary person would feel after staying up for several days straight.

Hu Qi, of course, knew exactly why this was happening.

The Spirit Seed Technique could indeed separate a thread of one’s own essence.

But the technique had extremely strict limitations: at most, only a single, minuscule thread could be separated at one time.

To separate a second thread, one must first retract the essence that had already been split off.

If he were to rashly attempt to separate a second thread, even with his current great strength and profound foundation, he would absolutely be unable to bear it.

Such a reckless attempt could even lead to extremely severe consequences, like damage to his foundation, which would affect his future cultivation path.

Under normal circumstances, Hu Qi would never do such a thing.

But now that he had a method to quickly accumulate essence, he naturally had to give it a try.

Besides, he possessed the Crimson panel.

This was the biggest difference between him and an ordinary Apostle Level being.

As long as he had enough Modification Points, this kind of problem, caused by separating his essence, was merely a minor inconvenience to him.

As this thought crossed his mind, a line of crimson text appeared before his retina, clearly displaying his current status.

[Status: Abnormal △ (Essence Incomplete, Soul Unstable)]

...

[Modification Points: 48756 (47%)]

’Crimson, modify immediately! Restore me to a normal state!’

As Hu Qi’s will took form,

the value in the Modification Points column rapidly decreased.

At the same time, a vast, cool stream of energy, like a raging river, rushed into his body.

Nourished by this stream, the pallor of Hu Qi’s face rapidly returned to a healthy, rosy glow at a visible rate.

His soul, which had felt as if it were being torn apart, was now like parched earth receiving a long-awaited rain. All feelings of pain and weakness were swiftly dispelled.

All negative conditions were swept away in an instant.

At this moment, the crimson text changed again:

[Status: Normal]

...

[Modification Points: 18685 (47%)]

To return to his normal state, Hu Qi had spent over thirty thousand Modification Points.

However, his expression remained calm.

’As long as the plan I’ve devised is successful, this small expenditure isn’t even worth mentioning.’

After all, no matter how many Modification Points he had, if they couldn’t be successfully converted into his own strength, they were ultimately just cold, meaningless numbers to him.

Conversely, only by using Modification Points wisely could they truly unleash their immense potential value.

"Go!"

Hu Qi gazed at the thread of essence in his hand.

Then, with a wave of his hand,

the next moment, the wisp of light, like a brilliant meteor, passed straight through the protective First Layer of Zero Ecological Island.

And then vanished from this space.
