Life Dungeon Game

Unfortunately, there is almost no energy available for cultivation in the main world.

During the period when the ruins descended, he was still able to cultivate in his current location, but now that the descent of the ruins has ended, the energy intensity around him has returned to normal.

In the main world, "normal" is practically nonexistent.

Thinking of this, He Ao suddenly paused.

He suddenly sat up in bed.

Without energy, how could he perceive the efficiency of energy conversion?

He lowered his head and stared at his palms.

Due to the severe headache, the fatigue from entering a high-level state of 'peeping', and his constant focus on adjusting the energy lines, he did not notice some other subtle changes.

For example, a small but stable energy was emanating from the jade pendant, seeping into He Ao's body, and being naturally absorbed and transformed by him.

This jade pendant contains its own energy, and it can even output it?

He Ao paused for a moment.

He gazed at the jade pendant in his hand, which meant that he could now practice martial arts normally in the main world.

He recalled that this energy seemed to have started to emerge after he first immersed his divine sense into the jade pendant.

Is this what the system calls one of the 'core abilities' that only high-level martial artists can use?

But where does the energy in this jade pendant come from?

Several times before, when he immersed his divine sense into the jade pendant, his attention was drawn to the special state of seeking the truth, and he did not really pay attention to what the structure of the jade pendant was.

He pondered for a moment, then once again mobilized his divine sense and immersed it into the jade pendant.

This time, he completely abandoned paying attention to other things and focused all his attention on perceiving the internal structure of the jade pendant.

The bloodstains in the jade pendant contracted and undulated.

The next second, an even more violent, hurricane-like pollution swept through He Ao's consciousness, and at the same time, what appeared in He Ao's perception was a vast 'sea of ​​energy', like an ocean.

The energy emanating from the jade pendant is but a drop in the ocean.

He tried to mobilize these energies, but they did not react at all; he seemed unable to truly control the jade pendant.

The violent pollution kept assaulting He Ao's mind, and at the same time, He Ao's spirit and consciousness were being rapidly depleted.

He Ao felt like a bamboo boat in a storm, easily capsized.

Braving such a violent 'storm', he further immersed his divine sense into the depths of the jade pendant.

In his divine perception, a vast expanse of 'bloodstains' appeared before his eyes, as if filled with infinite truths.

At this point, the storm of pollution had intensified, and He Ao felt he could barely hear anything from the outside world.

But he didn't stop. He used his divine sense to 'guide' that vast expanse of 'bloodstains'.

The moment his consciousness touched the 'bloodstain', an even more violent pollution surged into his soul and then overflowed into his body, with blood carrying a gray glow flowing from the corners of his mouth and nostrils.

However, his actions did not stop, but he continued to try to draw it. The vast bloodstain, which seemed to be between matter and energy, trembled and then swam outward in the direction of the divine sense.

can?

He Ao paused slightly.

And in that instant when he paused, the bloodstains that had been flowing out shrank back a little.

If no external force is applied to solidify the bloodstains, they will quickly revert to their original state.

He pondered for a moment.

He currently has a little over three strands of divine consciousness remaining; he had seven when he entered the dungeon, so he used more than half of them.

.

Then, without hesitation, he activated his super memory and poured the remaining three divine senses into the jade pendant.

Guided by the powerful mental energy of the super memory, these consciousnesses split into several different forces, passing through the energy in the jade pendant, contacting the vast bloodstains, and began to rapidly guide these bloodstains outward.

Soon, streaks of bright red were guided out, extending into complex patterns.

Despite the raging pollution, He Ao connected these patterns little by little, forming the outline of a huge and complex 'magic circle'.

A control array pointing to 'K'.

At this moment, his spirit was extremely weak, even his soul was trembling, and his consciousness was rapidly fading away like boiling water, but his movements did not stop at all.

Finally, when the last line of the magic circle was drawn, He Ao felt his body suddenly lighten.

An invisible connection linked him to the jade pendant in his hand.

Sweat and blood soaked through his clothes and covered his face, making him look eerie and grotesque under the bright lights.

He Ao deactivated his super memory and stared at the jade pendant in his hand. At this moment, he was able to mobilize the energy within the jade pendant.

However, he did not stop, but quickly mobilized the energy in the jade pendant to fix the newly formed control array.

To prevent the bloodstains forming the magic circle from shrinking back and causing the magic circle to collapse.

Then he thought for a moment and gradually increased the energy emanating from the jade pendant.

This energy quickly entered He Ao's body, circulating within him and gathering in his chest.

Soon, He Ao adjusted the surging energy to the maximum value that his body could absorb.

This energy is rapidly transformed, absorbed, and converted into cyclones.

He Ao estimated that, at this rate of cultivation, he would be able to form a new divine consciousness in a little over a day at most.

The construction of the control array had consumed two of his divine senses, but now it seemed that the effort was worthwhile.

He Ao shook the jade pendant in his hand and tied it around his neck.

The jade pendant seemed to provide a continuous supply of energy whenever it came near his skin.

He Ao could clearly feel that even if he increased the output, the energy output was still a drop in the ocean compared to the energy stored in the jade pendant.

This energy far exceeds what a Class B should have.

Now that he has complete control over the jade pendant, in addition to controlling the amount of energy output from the pendant, he can also gather all the energy together and release it all at once.

He Ao didn't know how much damage this release could cause, but a B-rank character shouldn't be able to deal that much damage.

He estimated that this energy intensity might be close to that of an angel's attack.

Of course, after the energy is released, there is no more energy in the jade pendant to support He Ao's cultivation, so this release can only be used as a trump card.

I just don't know if the energy inside the jade pendant can be replenished.

Unlike other extraordinary items, this jade pendant did not have any instruction manuals or function prompts, so He Ao had to figure it out on his own.

The three functions he has figured out so far

Firstly, when one's divine sense is immersed in the jade pendant, it triggers the contamination within, granting a kind of 'peek into the truth'.

This perspective, which is more focused on martial arts, is very helpful for martial arts practice.

Secondly, it contains a large amount of energy, which he can use to support his cultivation after he fully controls the jade pendant, or he can release it as a trump card.

Thirdly, when he does nothing and simply wears the item naturally, he feels that his thinking about martial arts seems to have become clearer. This seems to be what the system meant by 'increasing comprehension'.

He Ao doesn't know if the jade pendant has any other abilities, but these three functions alone are already quite extraordinary.

However, the system is fair. Judging from the other two reward options, this reward is actually around level B.

Without contamination, this jade pendant is most likely just an ordinary Grade B item. Most of its unique features probably come from the 'blood' that seeped into it.

Based on He Ao's long experience dealing with deities, this blood most likely came from a deity.

Of course, this does not mean that after these contaminations, the jade pendant becomes a universally desirable item.

Based on the mental resistance of ordinary martial artists or extraordinary individuals who have cultivated martial arts, not to mention the pollution caused by carrying the jade pendant, the pollution impact of just the moment when divine sense enters the jade pendant is enough to drive a B-level person completely insane.

Not to mention using divine sense to draw upon the blood of gods to inscribe control arrays for oneself; such blasphemous actions have polluted the gods themselves.

This is not a good thing; in fact, in a traditional sense, this jade pendant brings more trouble than the other two rewards, the recorder and the cross.

Therefore, the system issued the most warnings regarding this jade pendant.

But coincidentally, Heo was somewhat resistant to these troubles, so this was a good thing for him.

At this moment, without any intervention, a slight contamination seeped out of the jade pendant and entered He Ao's body.

But Heo is still wearing the Mechanical Core Ring and the fake Master Bracelet, both of which are inherently corrupted.

So the jade pendant's pollution excitedly rushed into He Ao's consciousness, only to be bullied by the two pollution bosses who were already on high alert, and then squeezed into a corner.

"what!!!"

Having finally settled the matter with the jade pendant, He Ao stretched lazily.

Just then, he noticed that there was still a line of text in his field of vision that hadn't disappeared.

[Current progress of the Super Exchanger quest: 14/12]

Congratulations on completing the Super Exchanger mission!

The redemption system is currently undergoing upgrades...

[Upgrade countdown: 154:58:45]

He glanced at the countdown to the next dungeon in the lower right corner of his vision; it was also 154 hours.

It seems that the upgrade of the exchange system and the opening of the dungeon are synchronized.

As He Ao noticed the text, it gradually disappeared from his sight.

He thought for a moment and then opened the character card interface.

One by one, the character cards appeared before him.

It seems that the upgrade of this redemption system does not affect the normal use of the system's functions.

In the upper right corner of the character card interface, a countdown timer for this upgrade is displayed.

I didn't know it would be upgraded.

What will come out?

He Ao closed the character card interface, thought for a moment, and then opened the personal attributes.
