Chapter 354 Even the Nine Great Gods Couldn't Do It? Xia Fa Alone Possesses Both the Mutant and Extraordinary Systems!

To eat or not to eat, that is the question.

Xia Fa held the diamond-shaped crystal that shone like starlight, lost in thought and confusion.

The most advanced mutant crystal source meant the best mutant crystal source that people could obtain in the era of mutants in history, and Xia Fa knew this.

Yes, although he "traveled" back, some fragmented memories of Loret remained, especially those involving "mutants," which became increasingly clear.

"The reason why the governor of Worm City rewarded Loret with the top-quality mutated crystal source was so that he could give it to his children or sell it on the market."

"In other words, he can no longer consume mutated crystal sources, since he has already consumed one and become a mutant."

"However, the limits of mutants seem to be far beyond this—"

When Xia Fa traveled back to that period of history, the situation was constantly critical, with people dying every moment, and the area outside the Worm City was full of deformed creatures and mantis-wielding men—which meant that Xia Fa didn't have time to carefully consider some key issues.

In particular, experience the difference between the mutant power within a "mutant" and the superhuman power within a "superhuman".

Fortunately, even after traveling back, he still retained clear memories and could even pass through immediately.

"Dream Meditation" allows you to experience it again in your dreams.

Of course, there's no need to exaggerate like that, because with just a little reflection, he already sensed the difference between that mutated power and the extraordinary power.

The power of mutation, though weak, is a very pure and clean force, and it gives Xia Fa a feeling that there is a bright future ahead.

In other words, no matter how immense the power of mutation is, even if it's as immense as that of a god, it won't cause the mutated people to lose control.

If he hadn't been to the place where time stood still, he wouldn't have known about this power, but after going there once, Xia Fa immediately recognized it.

This power of mutation—it shares the same origin as the power of the ancient gods and the power borrowed by magicians!

Therefore, Xia Fa made a very bold guess.

"The era I traveled to was probably the era when mutants had just appeared. That's why mutants look so weak. Even when they self-destruct, they can only affect a range of about 100 meters."

"Especially those elemental mutants, they can't even transform their bodies into elements to avoid physical attacks, and they can only use elemental abilities through their palms. They're too backward—"

"However, the ancient gods also seem to have a very strong connection with the mutants."

"In other words, if the ancient gods really did evolve from the strongest group of mutants, then either the mutant crystal source can be consumed more than once, or the mutants have other ways to become stronger."

"

"Of course, that's also possible. It's just that the ancient gods permanently distributed their power to the mutated humans. But if that's the case, how did magicians come into being? And why can magicians only borrow rather than obtain the power of the ancient gods?"

As Xia Fa pondered, he suddenly felt an unusually strong curiosity and wanted to go back to that era of mutants to see if any ancient gods existed.

Alternatively, it would be great to travel thousands or tens of thousands of years into the era of mutants. If I could witness a powerful mutant ascend to become an ancient god, my guess would be confirmed.

However, after thinking things through, he has now made a decision.

eat!

Eat that mutated crystal source!

Now is the time when I am most lacking in strength. In two days, [Eternal Critical Strike] will be released. Now, the opportunity to become stronger is right in front of me, so what am I waiting for?

Even if consuming this mutated crystal doesn't significantly increase one's strength, it doesn't matter.

Now that I've had my first experience traveling back to the era of mutants, there's a high probability that I'll do it a second time. If I travel back to an era thousands or tens of thousands of years after the "Lolett" era, I might be able to find a way for mutants to become stronger!

"Hmm—I can still barely be considered human now. If I become a transcendent god, this mutated crystal source will probably be useless to me. So, eating it now is the most suitable thing to do."

Although becoming a god would greatly increase both one's physical form and potential, making one seem more suitable to consume this top-tier mutated crystal source, it is clear that consuming it at that time might not be effective.

Now is the best time. Maybe after eating it, when I become a god again, the power of mutation and the power of the extraordinary will be able to blend together!

Just before consuming the mutated crystal source, Xia Fa suddenly noticed that, for some reason, this top-tier mutated crystal source was slightly worn down compared to when it first appeared.

Although the impact was minimal, or even nonexistent, this strange detail still made him ponder.

After thinking for a moment, Xia Fa decided to stop hesitating. With one hand, he tossed the dazzling, top-tier mutated crystal into his mouth and bit down hard.

Click!

at the same time.

In the Celestial Realm of the Star Spirit Realm, the Celestial Realm of the [Lord of the Superdimensional].

【Lord of the Superdimensional】As the source lord of the "Superdimensional Primordial Embryos", His Celestial True Realm is not a scene of flesh and bones forming walls everywhere. On the contrary, His Celestial True Realm is quite unique, being a salt flat.

In the saline-alkali land, there are huge, jagged, and strangely shaped crystalline rocks everywhere. Copper-wire-like weeds grow at the base of the rocks, and the landscape is dry and bright white.

The Lord of the Superdimensional was leaning comfortably against a crystalline rock, having just finished reading the last "fragment of reality" given to him by the Apostle of Knowledge.

-

After letting go of those shattered fragments of reality, the Lord of the Superdimensional gazed at the horizon, a look of lingering contemplation on his face.

"Interesting, really interesting. More than three billion years ago, the mutant humans had only been born for less than a hundred years when they were besieged by deformed beings and monsters like the mantis-sword people who were born at the same time, and were almost wiped out."

"At that time, it was an escort team that dug out a whole cartload of mutated crystals, both good and bad, from the [Krei Saint Undersea Cave], an extremely mysterious place in the Baron Ocean whose location has never been found since. They escorted it back to Worm City in the Worm Islands, which allowed the mutated people to truly rise up."

"The key figure among them is a fire-evolved mutant named 'Loret'."

"With the escort team reduced to almost nothing but him and the escort captain surrounded by monsters, Lorette, in a life-or-death moment when he was ambushed by the Mantis, inexplicably learned to transform his body into a fire elemental."

"Before this, no mutant had ever developed such technology, or rather, someone had tried but never succeeded. After all, mutants had only existed for less than a hundred years at that time."

"But it was precisely because Loret successfully mastered the development technology to transform his body into elements that he not only became a great hero who successfully escorted the mutated crystal source back to Worm City and saved the mutated people."

"This also allowed those elemental mutants to rise to become the most powerful mutants among all types—"

"Of course, this only applies to mutants who can also control the elementalization of their bodies. If they are elemental mutants who cannot master this development technology, then they are still not strong."

"And just a few decades after that era, Lorete had accumulated many hidden injuries from his early sea voyages and had long since passed away. However, the elemental mutants who inherited his development technology and could transform their bodies into elements became stronger and stronger, almost becoming the top mutants."

"In that era, a Holy Light mutant named Igor was born. Not only could he transform his body into Holy Light, but he could also unleash all sorts of incredibly powerful Holy Light abilities."

"This led him to rise to become the leader of the mutants in a certain place, but because he was too powerful, he also gradually developed an arrogant personality."

"Igor was born in a tribe on the wasteland. He worshipped the eagle the most and often compared himself to the eagle."

"He often insulted the mutants he looked down upon, or the opponents he defeated, by saying that they were not as strong as bacteria and insects in the ground."

"Originally, this was nothing, but with the complete rise of the mutant city-state led by Igor, his worship of the eagle and his contemptuous nickname for the enemy spread far and wide."

"The weak mutants would even joke about each other, comparing each other to bacteria or insects, while the powerful mutants, like Igor, would be compared to eagles."

'

"Over time, more than 150 years after the birth of mutants, mutants have for the first time had a clear division of strength."

"In other words, from weakest to strongest, they are: fungus-level mutants, insect-level mutants, and eagle-level mutants —"

"Later, for some unknown reason, the mutants were completely wiped out throughout the universe, and the magicians began to rise up, also adopting the terminology used by the mutants to classify their strength."

"Then, we extraordinary beings inherited this classification method from the magicians —"

[Lord of the Superdimensional] thought back to this, shook his head with a smile, and the smile on his face became even more enthusiastic, like a scholar who had finally solved a problem that had troubled him for many years.

"I never imagined that the classification of extraordinary strength among fungi, insects, and eagles would come about in this way."

"But where did the titles 'Wolf-level Transcendent,' 'Elephant-level,' 'Whale-level,' and even 'Demigod Angel Ruler' come from?"

Since the [Knowledge Apostle] only sent so many fragments of reality, the [Lord of the Superdimensional] was unable to continue exploring even if he wanted to.

So, I chose to pick up those shards of glass again, each with countless images flashing before my eyes, and begin to relive the moment once more.

In this little world.

The moment it bit into the top-tier mutated crystal source, the dazzling, star-like rhomboid crystal immediately expanded from its mouth to its stomach and intestines, and then completely spread throughout its entire body.

Xia Fa immediately felt a tingling and itchy sensation all over his body, along with alternating hot and cold sensations and an indescribable stinging pain that was almost unbearable.

At the same time, all the cells in the body are "activated".

That's right. Apart from the burning sensation I felt when I trained my body's cells before, the cells throughout my body have never been in such an incredibly active state.

Xia Fazheng carefully experienced this state, hoping to find out how mutants could become stronger as soon as possible. After all, he didn't know when the next time he would travel back to would be, or even which era of mutants he would travel back to.

Suddenly, an extremely powerful mutation force erupted from every cell in his entire body!

That kind of mutated power was not absorbed from the real world, but was generated by combining with the body after swallowing the top-tier mutated crystal source!

boom-!!!

Before Xia Fa could react, his body exploded.

"It failed?"

In a hazy state, this thought popped into my mind.

"As expected, the idea of ​​merging the mutant and superhuman systems into one is still wishful thinking—"

'

As consciousness became clearer, a multitude of fleeting thoughts also emerged.

"Perhaps the nine righteous gods also know about the history of mutants, but they did not choose the path of cultivation that combines mutants and extraordinary beings, surely because this path is destined to fail—"

"Wait, it could also be because there's no mutated crystal source—"

Since only consciousness remained, Xia Fa finally found the reason for the strange detail he had noticed just moments before consuming the top-tier mutated crystal source—that the mutated crystal source had been worn away for some reason.

What wore away that top-tier mutated crystal source was the extraordinary power that exists everywhere in the world!

The rapid rate of wear and tear made Xia Fa suddenly realize that even if the nine great gods truly knew the long history of the mutant era, it would be impossible for them to find any mutant crystal sources.

As I was thinking this, my consciousness became clearer. The sound of waves crashing on the shore rang in my ears, and bright sunlight shone in, entering my consciousness.

Xia Fa suddenly found himself back in the small world from a hazy, chaotic state.

However, it still only has consciousness, without a body.

As for his own body—

Xia Fa then used his consciousness to look around the beach and finally saw his own shattered body.

At this moment, his body exploded into cells, spreading across the beach and almost covering the entire sandy area.

One-third of the cells were wreathed in chaotic lightning and thunder, each filament carrying a terrifying aura of destruction.

The other third of the cells shimmered with extremely dazzling pure white sunlight, accompanied by unbelievably intense heat, which even scorched and melted the void, creating countless tiny holes.

On the last third of the cells, countless tiny wind blades, transformed from iron-colored gales, darted in and out of the cells, yet they were incredibly sharp, capable of slicing through the air.

"this----"

Xia Fa was completely dumbfounded. Although he already knew that in the mutant system, "the stronger a person is and the greater their potential, the better the effect of taking mutant crystals will be," his effect was just too good.

You should know that when I transmigrated into "Lorete" before, the mutants I encountered were at most things like fire mutants, thunder mutants, explosion mutants, poison mutants, frost mutants, and so on.

But he himself mutated and gained three abilities at once?

These abilities are also completely different from ordinary abilities. Lightning is not the usual blue and white but a chaotic color, the sun is pure white, and the gale has a metallic iron color.

"Wait, since my body is mutating, it seems I haven't failed. I just need to reassemble my body—"

With this in mind, Xia Fa immediately began to work hard, using his consciousness to guide the cells scattered across the beach to converge in the same place.

He had thought it would be difficult, but the next moment, the cells seemed to have completed their mutation. Chaotic lightning, pure white sun, and metallic gale all receded into the cells.

Immediately, the cells converged toward Xia Fa's consciousness.

In an instant, his lithe and agile body with its broad back and narrow waist was revealed once again, with smooth muscle lines and every part of his body seemed to be full of explosive power.

But that's not the key point. The key point is—

With a thought, Xia Fa's body instantly transformed into a form composed of chaotic lightning threads. He took a single step to the left, and his entire being became a bolt of chaotic lightning, arriving at the edge of the small world in an instant.

This speed is several times faster than when he flew at full speed before!

Immediately afterwards, Xia Fa's body twisted and then immediately switched to a form composed of blazing white light, as if a god had descended to earth, extremely sacred.

Then, he shuddered, and his entire body transformed back into countless metallic wind blades, capable of tearing the air apart with the slightest movement of his hand.

"That's interesting—"

Xiafa murmured to himself, then transformed back into human form.

At the same time, vague information welled up in my spiritual intuition, which then quickly became clear.

Through this information, he finally understood what kind of mutant he had become.

It is a mutant who possesses the three major mutations of "Chaotic Destruction Lightning", "Pure White Incandescent Holy Sun" and "Metal Accumulation Storm"!

If this were in the era when mutants were generally weak, Xia Fa suspected that he could have become the king of mutants.

Moreover, the biggest surprise is that these three mutations, in terms of strength alone, can actually match the strength of the original secret techniques I have been using after signing five overlord-level secret contracts!

This is a massive improvement comparable to the time I obtained the [Ancient Treasure - Rhine Blade of Calamity] and the time I successfully lost control twice during my cultivation!

"So, to summarize, the strange ability I gained after breaking the 100-pull-up barrier is—the ability to travel back to the past era of this world?"

Xia Fa nodded slightly, feeling very satisfied.

Because, just like the ability to "randomly freeload meals" that you get when you do more than 100 push-ups, it's not a one-time reward, but a benefit you can keep getting from it!

In contrast, the divine battle techniques I obtained when I broke through to fifty or sixty pull-ups, such as [Pillar of Mind Storm] and [Wailing Barrier], were incredibly useful, but they were only one-time rewards.

"By the way, I heard that both [Absolute Defense] and [Paradox Clown] have developed three divine battle techniques each. What are [Absolute Defense]'s other two divine battle techniques?"

Xia Fa suddenly thought of this and became genuinely curious.

Now that Lord Absolute Defense has returned, perhaps there will be an opportunity to learn from him in the future. After all, we are all Silver Throne signatories, and he should be happy to teach us.

Unfortunately, I can't learn it now, because the [Absolute Defense] master is currently dragging along those thirty-five awakened Golden Cleaners.

Seeing that today's physical training was over, not only had he successfully broken through the one hundred pull-ups and gained the unique ability to travel back to the mutant era, but he had also become a mutant himself, possessing the three major mutations of "Chaotic Destruction Lightning", "Pure White Incandescent Holy Sun" and "Metal Accumulation Storm", Xia Fa was quite satisfied.

Meanwhile, the anticipation for the release of [Eternal Critical Strike] in two days is growing stronger.

As long as I don't encounter any Outer Gods, I can say that I have no rivals now.

In other words, even the strongest beings among the gods, as well as the Bronze Cleaners, could be defeated by him!

Therefore, Xia Fa was determined to obtain that [Eternal Critical Strike]!

Two days later.

early morning.

Xia Fa pushed open the treehouse door and saw Chestnut rinsing his mouth outside.

The morning sun at nine o'clock shone through the shade of the trees, illuminating her curves in a loose shirt, which, combined with her pretty face, made her extremely pleasing to the eye and breathtakingly beautiful.

Speaking of which, this oversized shirt was originally his, so it looked quite big on Chestnut, just enough to cover a little bit of his thighs.

These past two days, Xia Fa has chosen to completely relax, restoring her energy and spirit to their peak.

Of course, this is also because I just broke the 100-pull mark and haven't been able to train my body again for a few days.

There was no other reason to do it.

In particular, he had originally wanted to advance his understanding of "conditional permanence," but he found that he couldn't make any progress unless he went to the Protoss Realm and fought the Bronze Cleansers.

But that's too risky, especially with the [Eternal Critical Strike] about to be released. If you're not careful, you could easily encounter the Silver Cleansers, or those Outer Gods who have joined the Cleansers' camp under the fake Nine Great Gods.

So, after contacting Tefaro and his cousin, the father of Wanxing, Xiafa chose to spend two pleasant days with Chestnut in this small world.

As for Benedict and Meowkor—well, judging by the days, they should be back today.

In the past two days, he had of course looked through Benedict's training notes, only to find that the two girls had done something that was beyond his imagination.

That was taught to them by Heather Perria. After the two found the lair of the Sacred Leyline Giants in the underground fissure, they discovered that these Sacred Leyline Giants could actually grow, and as they grew, the sacred metal inside their bodies would also increase in size.

Of course, this does not mean that they have found a way to cultivate sacred metal, because this growth is due to the growth of the sacred ley giants, which allows them to absorb the sacred metal in atomic form that is scattered in the cracks in the earth.

Once the sacred metal in its atomic state within the underground fissures has absorbed all of it, they will naturally be unable to grow any further.

So, under Heather's guidance, the two women chose to dig up extraordinary metals from the underground fissures and feed them to the sacred giants of the ley lines, accelerating their growth so that they could absorb all the sacred metals scattered in the underground fissures within two days.

As for the holy giants themselves—they were naturally suppressed by Heather Perria and could only obediently wait to be fed.

To be honest, when Shafa saw this outrageous move in Benedict's travel notes, he was almost stunned.

All I can say is that the Queen of Dolls truly lives up to her title; she knows a lot.

"Speaking of which, they should have almost finished feeding the sacred ley line giants, right?"

If the two of them happen to return at this time, then I can absorb the sacred metal and head to the City of Ten Thousand Stars to seize the [Eternal Critical Strike].

Xia Fa was about to take out Benedict's travel notes and take a look.

But just then, a fairytale-like rainbow bridge appeared out of thin air!

Benedict and Meowkor are riding in a pumpkin carriage, heading towards Shafa from the Rainbow Bridge!

"Master, we're back!"
