The world begins with refining skills

Chapter 558 Eliminating Hidden Dangers! (Please Subscribe)

"The current world ritual is incomplete?"

Mu Sheng raised an eyebrow.

What does it mean that you have to complete a ritual in the mysterious world before you can advance?
When did the refining panel become so bad?
After sorting through the information in his mind, he finally understood what was going on.

In the potion system of the mysterious world, starting from Sequence 5, taking a potion requires a corresponding ritual to complete the advancement.

And becoming a demigod is the most important step between a human and a god!
At this stage, the potion is just a catalyst; the real reason a demigod can advance is to obtain partial access through the ritual!
Mu Sheng isn't incapable of direct advancement; rather, after completing the corresponding advancement ceremony in this world, he can accelerate the panel's refinement of the current sequence!

"Accelerate the refining process?"

"As expected, starting from the high-sequence demigods, the extraordinary ones are already different!"

Mu Sheng was somewhat surprised, but not unexpected. As early as when he advanced to Sequence 5, information about the refining progress appeared on the panel.

Although it was completed in just a few breaths, it wasn't something that could be refined in an instant; there's still a big difference between the two!
"The authority of extraordinary power, or rather, divinity, is somewhat similar to the pantheon in Western mythology!"

Mu Sheng nodded thoughtfully.

"However, haven't I already changed the fate of 'God of Poverty' Klein?"

"Isn't this considered completing the promotion ceremony?"

He was somewhat surprised by this. Was it because the requirements for creating a new sequence were too high, or because Klein would go back to his old ways?

If it's because of the former, that's fine, but if it's because of the latter...

"No, I need to get the Source Castle back as soon as possible. The waters here are too deep; Klein can't handle it!"

Many plans immediately came to mind for Mu Sheng.

"Let's see how long it takes to refine Sequence 4!"

The moment a thought arises, the relevant information instantly appears.

"It takes one day to complete the ceremony, but ten days if it's not completed. That's a tenfold difference?"

"Then... let's not finish it!"

Upon learning that even without completing the ritual, there would only be ten days for refining, Mu Sheng immediately lost his sense of tension.

Although the refining time will definitely increase a lot when we reach Sequence 3 and Sequence 2, we haven't reached that time yet!

"Ten days? It would have taken me more than ten days to collect the remaining two Sequence 4 extraordinary properties!"

"But then again, where do we get the remaining two traits?"

Mu Sheng stroked his chin, lost in thought.

...

...

Above a mysterious, illusory, boundless gray-white mist.

Mu Sheng's figure suddenly appeared beside a mottled and ancient bronze table!
Twenty-two bronze chairs were placed in front of the long table, five of which, representing the 'Fool,' the 'Hanged Man,' 'Justice,' the 'Sun,' and the 'World,' had been lit up.

"Have Klein's alternate accounts all come out yet?"

Mu Sheng glanced curiously at the bronze chair that represented the 'world'.

Because of his presence, Klein completed digesting the 'Clown' potion much earlier.

Furthermore, due to his contributions in the event of the descent of the evil god's offspring, he obtained the recipe and potion for Sequence 7 'Magician' ahead of time.

After successfully advancing to Sequence 7, Klein gained even greater control over Source Castle.

Mu Sheng sensed the power he could manipulate on the Source Castle and was surprised to find that it was not much higher than Klein's.

"Damn it! I'm a Sequence 4 demigod! How can I be inferior to a Sequence 7? This is too unfair!"

"We're all from the same planet, so should I be discriminated against just because I'm not a native Earthling?"

Mu Sheng was angry. He hated racial discrimination and that stuff the most!
Being discriminated against by others is even worse!

"Fine, fine, if you're heartless, then don't blame me for being unjust!"

Mu Sheng snorted coldly, then plunged headfirst into the gray fog.

"furnace!"

The phantom of a three-legged bronze furnace suddenly appeared in this boundless gray-white mist.

"Bloodline Net!"

boom! ! !
A volcanic burst of life force erupted and coalesced into an armored giant within the phantom of the bronze furnace.

The moment the armored giant appeared, the boundless gray mist rippled and changed.

"It's good that there's a response!"

Mu Sheng remained expressionless, raised his hand and grabbed the armored giant within the bronze melting phantom. The giant instantly disintegrated into a seed of flesh and blood, which flew into his hand.

This is the very giant seed that he gave to Klein back then!

"A trace of Klein's soul and bloodline is enough!"

Looking at the flesh and blood seed in his hand, Mu Sheng had a thought, and a massive amount of spiritual energy surged into it.

Many complex and profound runes immediately appeared on the seed of flesh and blood.

Immediately afterwards, the illusory bronze furnace in the gray mist was sucked into the Seed of Flesh and Blood!
Mu Sheng immediately realized that the barrier between himself and this boundless gray fog had been largely eliminated.

Compared to the previous second, the force he could leverage on the Source Castle had increased dozens of times!
"One times ten equals ten, and ten times ten equals one hundred. Indeed, increasing the base number is the right way!"

Although his privileges were elevated, Mu Sheng was not satisfied.

This upgrade is temporary; it utilizes Klein's soul aura and bloodline to temporarily obscure the Source Castle's high rank on the refining panel.

What he wants is a permanent promotion!

"continue!"

A hint of pain flashed across Mu Sheng's face, but he quickly regained his resolve.

You can’t catch a wolf without sacrificing a kid!
It's worth the effort to get our hands on the Source Castle, one of the nine Source Elements!

"Equivalent exchange!"

He clenched his fists into a fist, then thrust them into his abdomen, pulling out a 'sequence rune' that shimmered with a faint light from his body.

It's a Sequence 9 Diviner's Rune!

He threw the 'Sequence Rune' into the Seed of Flesh, and a moment later, an equal amount of 'Gray Mist' property floated out from it.

"Hi~"

Mu Sheng parted his lips slightly and inhaled forcefully, causing the 'gray mist' properties to enter his stomach.

The panel deep within his sea of ​​consciousness flickered slightly, and the properties of this wisp of 'gray mist' were instantly refined!

"continue!"

Mu Sheng plunged his hand into the abdomen once more, and with a 'plop' sound, another 'sequence rune' was dug out.

After infusing the 'rune' into the seed of flesh and blood, a wisp of 'gray mist' property soon floated out and was swallowed and refined by Mu Sheng.

"Pfft!"

"Suck~"

"Pfft!"

"Suck~"

"..."

As Mu Sheng continuously extracted 'sequence runes' from his body, he replaced them with an equal amount of 'gray mist' properties through the Seed of Flesh and Blood.

His control over Source Castle is becoming increasingly deeper!
After digging out the Sequence 9 runes, you'll encounter the Sequence 8 runes, and after digging out the Sequence 8 runes, you'll encounter the Sequence 7 runes...

He finally stopped after he had dug out all the 'sequence runes' from the inner wall of his body.

"Ugh! I'm hooked! I feel completely drained!"

He was truly drained.

【序列9：穿越者（0/3）】    【序列8：侠客（0/3）】

[Sequence 7: Giant Bishop (0/3)]

[Sequence 6: Blacksmith (0/3)]

Sequence 5: Forge Mage (0/3)

Sequence 4: Variables (1/3)

Not just redundant 'sequence runes', except for Sequence 4 runes that haven't yet completed their ascension.

Even the characteristic materials that support each of his sequences were taken out by Mu Sheng and replaced with the 'Gray Fog' characteristic.

After paying such a huge price, Mu Sheng's basic permissions on the Source Castle finally surpassed those of Klein.

"We can proceed to the next step!"

Mu Sheng breathed a sigh of relief, dragged his empty body away from the Source Castle, and appeared in the real world in Tinggen City.

No. 2 Narcissus Street, in a two-story house.

Before Klein was fully awake, a man who looked very empty suddenly appeared at his bedside.

The man scrutinized Klein's face for a moment, then reached out his wicked hands towards him.

Poor Klein had no idea that he was about to lose his most precious possession!
"Pfft~"

After a sound of a hard object being inserted into liquid, Mu Sheng entered Klein's body.

"shield!"

With a clear voice, the boundless, mysterious gray-white mist above that unknown void suddenly began to boil!
Wisps of gray mist churned in the sea of ​​fog, transforming into chains that sealed off the mottled and ancient bronze table, along with the palace.

In the real world, Klein's brows suddenly furrowed. Even in his sleep, he felt an immense emptiness.

It's as if something extremely important has been lost!
Beneath his tightly closed eyelids, Klein's eyeballs began to roll rapidly, as if he were about to wake up.

"Sleep!"

Mu Sheng opened his mouth again and softly uttered a word.

A hazy drowsiness suddenly washed over Klein's mind!
Soon, his eyes stopped moving, and his consciousness sank back into sleep.

"Refining!"

Mu Sheng only glanced at Klein's condition before continuing his antics inside him.

A vast amount of spirituality flowed into the depths of Klein's body, permeating his extraordinary nature.

Strands of extraordinary power were extracted and gradually condensed into a 'sequence rune' that shimmered with a faint light.

Fortune teller!
clown!

And then... the magician!

In the blink of an eye, the extraordinary properties within Klein's body were forged into three 'sequence runes' that floated deep within his spirituality.

"It's not over yet!"

Mu Sheng raised his other hand, and with a stroke of his thumbnail across the pad of his index finger, blood with a faint golden sheen flowed out.

A pleasant fragrance immediately filled the room!
The tiny insects in every nook and cranny of the room, from the corners of the walls to under the bed, were crawling around like they were on drugs.

"My blood!"

Mu Sheng made a cut between Klein's eyebrows and dripped pale golden blood into it.

The moment the blood entered Klein's body, the wound between his eyebrows visibly healed.

The drop of blood that entered his body quickly transformed into countless tiny, invisible roots, taking root in every single cell of Klein's body.

“My blood is in your blood, my spirit is in your spirit, and my essence is on your soul…”

"There shouldn't be any major problems!"

After confirming that nothing was missing, Mu Sheng slowly withdrew from Klein's body.

"puff!"

Some red liquid was also brought out when it was removed.

After cleaning up all traces, Mu Shengyou dragged his empty body away from Tinggen City.

A few minutes later, Klein slowly opened his eyes and sat up in bed with a blank expression.

After sitting there for a while, he raised his hand and tapped his head: "Why does my head feel so swollen?"

Klein thought he had caught a cold, so he quickly got out of bed, went to the dressing mirror, tapped his back teeth twice, and activated his spiritual vision.

"The light from my etheric body is very bright, which means my body is very healthy. Am I just sleepy?"

"Eh? No!"

"Why do I feel like... the 'Magician' potion has been completely digested?"

Klein's pupils dilated instantly, as if he had seen something utterly unbelievable!
"Didn't I just take the potion a week ago? How could it be digested so quickly?"

"What did I do?"

Klein was starting to question the meaning of life.

This unusual situation did not make him happy; instead, he was worried that he might be losing control.

The feeling of the potion being digested was just a hallucination he experienced after going mad!

"No, I have to go and do some divination on the gray fog!"

Feeling increasingly uneasy, Klein immediately took four steps backward around the room, his consciousness rising above the gray fog.

Arriving at that familiar, magnificent palace, and sitting at the weathered, ancient bronze table, Klein finally felt at ease.

He then removed the silver chain from his left sleeve, held it with his non-dominant hand, and let the citrine pendant hang steadily in front of his eyes. He then closed his eyes and began to perform divination.

"I've lost control!"

"I've lost control!"

"..."

After seven repetitions, Klein opened his half-closed eyes and saw the citrine pendant rotating counterclockwise.

Counterclockwise indicates negation, meaning he is not out of control.

"Not out of control?"

Klein was even more puzzled. How did he digest the 'Magician' potion in his body?

So he began the divination again!

After a series of complex divinations, Klein finally confirmed that he had completed his digestion under the influence of some benevolent, high-ranking power.

"Well-intentioned, of high status..."

"Could it be him?"

The image of that mysterious 'fellow Earthling' flashed into Klein's mind.

He couldn't think of anyone else besides them.

So Klein once again took the citrine pendant and began to divine, but he couldn't get any results.

This result only made Klein more certain of his judgment.

Previously, when he tried to divine information related to this 'fellow Earth resident' in the gray fog, he couldn't get any results.

"Oh, it's Mr. 'Strength'! Then it's alright!"

After confirming that it wasn't a hallucination that was out of control, Klein left the gray fog with peace of mind.

After his figure disappeared, Mu Sheng emerged from the gray mist behind the Fool's Chair!
"Although we couldn't remove Klein's privileges, at least we don't have to worry about that old fox, the Goddess of the Night, influencing Klein through the Source Castle!"

Mu Sheng muttered to himself, glancing at the information on the panel.
