Global Evolution: I transplanted the heart of the Supreme God.

Chapter 958: Injury for Life
Wu Mingyue immediately put on her shield, and a stream of Azure Tide True Qi flowed in, forming a Reverse Life True Qi shield around Bai Pu's body.

Bai Pu's priority is temporarily increased by 1 point.

The immunity to crowd control effects of Ruthless Slaughter has been increased to a priority of 17 points.

The full moon's radiance, which was bestowed upon Bai Pu, was shattered by the merciless red light of slaughter!
Bai Pu stepped through the air, and with his high priority, he finally overcame the suppression of the world's power in the ascension plane. His original [Mysterious Steps] once again incorporated a profound technique—

Crimson Lotus Secret Technique.

Lotus blossoms bloom with every step he takes; with each stomp in mid-air, a red lotus blooms in the void!
This is certainly not just special effects. The red lotus belongs to fire, which means explosive power, representing Bai Pu's aerial dash, which is faster, higher, and stronger than before!
In his celestial descent state, Bai Pu can unleash flight-related abilities without consuming energy, allowing him to freely expend it.

Bell, bell, bell!

After three consecutive sprints, Bai Pu closed in again.

Lady Serendra cast the Ring of Full Moon again, but this time the spreading moonlight only caused Bai Pu to pause slightly, without repelling him.

"Protect the mistress!"

Two wounded Naga guards rushed forward, simultaneously activating their energy shields.

However, Bai Pu's simple sweeping motion generated a powerful gust of wind! The two Naga guards were shaken as if by an invisible hand, staggering backward. Their energy shields showed signs of disintegrating when they came into contact with Bai Pu's attack force!
With a pop, as if a soap bubble had been punctured, the energy shield completely collapsed, and the two Naga guards were blasted seven or eight meters away.

A crimson lotus trajectory shot out from beneath Bai Pu's feet once more, his speed increasing dramatically, propelling his next spear thrust forward—a spear tip enveloped in a rainbow of battle aura suddenly pierced through.

The Four Symbols - Bombardment!

With difficulty, Lady Serendra raised her crystal scepter and unleashed a beam of blazing white light at Bai Pu.

[Moonlight Conviction: After charging, fires a beam of moonlight energy forward, dealing severe damage to the first target hit and randomly applying three negative status effects from the following: fear, dizziness, poison, aging, armor penetration, and binding.]

This Naga commander has a keen eye; she saw that Bai Pu's bombardment was a way of converting all of his shield into attack energy.

The moment of greatest strength is also the moment of greatest weakness in one's defense. An attack launched now will surely have the greatest effect in terms of damage, forcing the opponent to retreat and regain the initiative!
With Bai Pu's mental strength approaching 200, he hadn't even noticed that Ms. Serendra was secretly gathering her strength for this attack.

This means that Lady Serendra's mental assessment value... even in her current severely injured state, with her attributes halved, still exceeds 390 points! This creates an overwhelming force of at least double the mental attribute over Bai Pu, which is why Bai Pu's perception has been clouded.

Ms. Serendra's mental attribute, at its peak, is probably no less than 700 points.

"A mentally enhanced boss... Too bad you're heavily injured, you can't kill me instantly!"

At this moment, Bai Pu couldn't even activate [Blazing Shell], because all his power was used for offense, and it was impossible for him to maintain two skills that required a lot of professional energy at the same time.

But he remained completely calm and showed no intention of defending himself. He unleashed the full power of his artillery barrage, which struck Lady Serendra in the head!

The beam of light from [Moonlight Conviction] struck Bai Pu's head almost simultaneously—before that, the Great Shaman had quickly cast a [Scale Water Shield] on Bai Pu.

A powerful force erupted simultaneously.

Lady Serendra took the bombardment to the face, her eyes rolled back, and her forehead bone was shattered, triggering a crippling effect, rendering her unconscious. The terrifying [Crescent Moon Mist] dissipated as a result.

Bai Pu's face was half bloody and mangled, revealing a broken cheekbone, and half of his eyeball was bulging out, making him look like a demon from hell.

"Mingyue, Qingyun, come and finish them off... Navia, kill all the other enemies."

Bai Pu covered his left eye, which was about to fall out, as waves of excruciating pain washed over him.

He took a deep breath and activated the skill attached to the [Black Sky Skull]: Azure Emperor's Command.

Green energy rose and swirled around the wounds, repairing Bai Pu's broken cheekbone first, followed by the restoration of his eye injury. Having healed his injuries, Bai Pu rubbed his left eye.

"What a powerful enhanced leader! I have a dual evolutionary state with adaptive evolution, and I also activated the [Ancestral Blessing] damage reduction. Mingyue even put a scale water shield on me... and I was still almost blinded."

"Fortunately, this is the Ascension Plane. The skills of Tier 1 equipment are not suppressed by the Tier 2 Plane. I can still use the Black Sky Skull to heal my injuries."

After being struck by [Moonlight Conviction], Bai Pu suffered three negative states: bondage, fear, and aging.

However, he was still under the immunity to control effects of "Ruthless Slaughter" and had an equipment effect that granted him a +1 priority against mind control, so the fear effect dissipated in an instant and the binding effect was also destroyed by the red light of Ruthless Slaughter.

As for the most troublesome "aging" effect, after being filtered by the ruthless killing, the only effect on Bai Pu was that his physical strength was greatly depleted, as if he had just played a friendly match back-to-back with the two witches.

"Xiaobai, does your eye still hurt?"

Wu Qingyun leaned closer and held Bai Pu's hand with some tenderness.

"It's fixed...it took a while."

Seeing that Ms. Serendra was still bleeding, Bai Pu said, "Why don't you finish her off?"

"I'll leave it to you. Although the converted scores are the same, if you get the final blow, your hidden rating should be higher, and the energy points you receive during the final ascension will also be higher."

Wu Qingyun said.

"it is good."

Bai Pu did not refuse. He stepped forward and stood in front of Ms. Serendra, raising his hand to strike and reaping her last bit of life.

[You have killed Lady Serendra, Commander of the Naga Legion's Eastern Theater. According to the scoring rules, you have earned 890 points.]

[Your reputation in the Crimson Blood Arena has greatly increased; your current reputation level is Revered. Based on the points conversion rules, you have earned 100 points.]

[Your reputation with the Empire has significantly increased; your current reputation level is Revered. Based on the points conversion rules, you have earned 400 points.]

Amidst a series of notification messages, Bai Pu reached out and took Ms. Serendra's loot chest.

This golden treasure chest is larger than Karamango's chest, and it also features a unique sculpture of a Naga witch on its lid.

"890 kill points? How many points did you guys get?" Bai Pu asked.

“We each got 390 points,” the two witches replied.

“The points awarded for kills should be the same. The extra 500 points might be due to his status as the commander of the Naga Eastern Theater Command,” Bai Pu guessed.

“Oh, scores aren’t important to us anyway. We’re not hoping to make it into the top ten or become a super seed,” Wu Qingyun said. “Scores are more important to you.”

"That's not necessarily true..." Bai Pu smiled slightly.

If he hadn't yet mastered the rudimentary form of his own true meaning, Bai Pu wouldn't dare to boast. But now that the rudimentary form of the Four Symbols True Meaning has been achieved, combined with his ability to cause trouble in the spirit world, how could he not lead the great and small witches into the top ten?

"Compared to this, let's hurry up and open the treasure chests. After opening the treasure chests to increase our strength, we can go and hunt down the other half-crippled Naga leaders!" Wu Qingyun's hard-working spirit erupted.

"I suggest you don't have too high expectations..."

Bai Pu smiled as he opened Lady Serendra's treasure chest.
