I became a god through frontier slaughter, and I crushed the academy's prodigies!

Shen Tian's movements suddenly froze.

His pupils instantly contracted to the size of needles.

Purple talent?

It should be noted that Blue Talent is already a genius that is one in ten thousand.

And purple...

That's an ability that only a fifth-tier beast king possesses.

For example, the [Soaring Ten Thousand Miles] and [Eternal Night Forbidden Zone] that even Chi Xiao found troublesome.

Shen Tian's breathing became rapid.

He looked at his long list of blue talents, his eyes gradually becoming fervent.

That's a real cheat code!

"system."

Shen Tian swallowed, his voice a little hoarse.

How many kill points are needed to upgrade a talent?

[Ding! A single talent has been upgraded from blue to purple, requiring 10000 kill points.]

10,000 points.

Change to a purple talent.

Is this what it feels like to have money?

Really fragrant.

"Since we have money, there's no need to save it up for future children."

Shen Tian took a deep breath, his gaze sharpening.

Good steel should be used where it's most needed.

In this perilous world, saving money is the most foolish thing to do; the only right path is to convert it into real combat power.

The first thing to upgrade is undoubtedly this.

It has to be it.

Shen Tian's gaze was fixed on the first line of the talent bar - [Seven Apertures Blade Heart (Blue)].

This was his initial capital.

From the initial unremarkable white talent [Swordsmanship Proficiency], it has evolved all the way to where it is now.

It is the foundation upon which Shen Tian was able to rival the gods with his mortal body.

In this world, no matter how many fancy abilities you have, nothing beats the real power of cleaving a path between life and death with a single stroke.

"System, add points!"

"Upgrade the [Seven Apertures Blade Heart]!"

[Ding! 10000 kill points consumed.]

[Upgrading...]

There weren't the spectacular special effects I had imagined.

Shen Tian only felt his heart suddenly contract.

Followed by.

An indescribable sharpness surged from the heart, instantly flowing through the blood vessels and throughout the body.

If his understanding of knives in the past was that they were as easy to use as an extension of his own arm.

So now, he feels like he is a knife.

Even without a knife in his hand, the light in his eyes, the breath he exhaled, and even the angle at which the hairs on his body stood on end, all carried a chilling, cutting sensation.

The air in the room seemed to be sliced ​​apart by this invisible sharpness, emitting a faint hissing sound.

The glass on the table cracked without warning, revealing a clean cut.

[Ding! Congratulations, host, your talent has successfully advanced!]

[Gained Purple Talent: Innate Blade Body.]

Shen Tian immediately clicked on the entry.

[Talent: Innate Sword Body]

[Rank: Purple]

[Entry Description: You stand in the rain, and the raindrops automatically split in two as they fall within three feet of you. Every strand of your hair is as sharp as a steel needle, and your breath can cleave fallen leaves. Any iron weapon in your hand will shatter inch by inch from the inability to withstand your sharp aura. One of the highest physical constitutions in the way of the sword. Born for the sword, of all weapons, the sword reigns supreme.]

[Man and Blade as One: Increases sword affinity and comprehension of sword techniques by 1000%!]

【All Things Sever: Attacks have the "Severing" trait.】

"hiss--"

1000%?

Is this the beauty of numerical monsters?

Is this the true value of a purple talent?

Loved it.

Shen Tian calmed his excited emotions and turned his gaze back to the system panel.

14070 points remain.

One more promotion is possible.

Now I'm having trouble making a decision.

Shen Tian rested his chin on his hand, looking like a nouveau riche who had just won the lottery and was picking and choosing in a luxury store, gazing at the remaining pile of blue talents, caught in a happy dilemma.

"Upgrade [Thunder]?"

Shen Tian imagined himself as the God of Thunder, unleashing a storm of lightning with every gesture, scorching the beast kings to a crisp.

Handsome!

Moreover, the feeling of controlling divine punishment is indeed very addictive.

"Or perhaps [Savage Power]?"

If I upgrade this to purple, I reckon I could really smash a mountain with one punch.

From now on, I don't need to carry a knife; I'll just punch you when we meet.

This simple and brutal aesthetic of violence is so cool!

"And there's also the [Phantom Assassin]..."

If it could evolve into permanent invisibility, or be able to pass through walls and burrow underground.

They're practically performing an Assassin's Creed routine!

This is too eerie.

But I really like it.

Shen Tian clicked his tongue, his eyes darting back and forth between the various talents, his expression greedy...

Therefore, I choose

……

[Immortal Body]!

Be wild, but also be cautious!

Shen Tian knew very well that he couldn't bite off more than he could chew.

The key now is to address our shortcomings.

With the [Innate Blade Body] and the max-level [Severe Breath Slash], his attack power is already overflowing.

What are the current shortcomings?

It's the tolerance rate.

It's fate.

No matter how high your attack power is, it's all for nothing if you get slapped to death.

Just like when we faced those three beast kings during the day.

Chixiao was able to withstand that wave of concentrated fire because of the terrifying foundation of a half-step sixth-order cultivator.

And what about yourself?

Although one possesses an "immortal body," it only means faster healing; limb regeneration still depends on luck and energy expenditure.

If it gets blasted into dust, it'll probably be finished.

"You can only contribute if you're alive."

"Only the immortal waves are the true waves."

"System, upgrade [Undying Body]!"

[Ding! 10000 kill points consumed.]

[Upgrading...]

boom!

This time, the commotion is quite significant.

Shen Tian felt every cell in his body burning, and then being reborn from destruction.

The feeling wasn't painful; instead, it was a tingling, itchy sensation.

It feels like countless tiny ants are crawling inside my blood vessels.

After a while.

The strange feeling disappeared.

Shen Tian didn't feel that his strength had increased much, nor did he feel that his defense had become stronger.

But he could perceive it clearly.

Its own vitality became extremely tenacious.

[Ding! Congratulations, host, your talent has successfully advanced!]

[Gained the purple talent: Blood Rebirth.]

Shen Tian couldn't wait to click on the details.

He only glanced at it, and the corners of his mouth turned up in a wide smile that he couldn't suppress.

[Talent: Blood Rebirth]

[Rank: Purple]

[Entry Description: You are a self-aware aggregate of flesh and blood. Even if blasted to pieces by a high-explosive missile, as long as your core consciousness remains, every drop of blood and every piece of flesh scattered on your body will automatically gather and reassemble as if alive. To the enemy, you are an inescapable nightmare—killing you once is not difficult; the difficulty lies in completely destroying every single cell of yours.]

[Cellular Immortality: As long as a single drop of primordial essence remains in the body, or as long as the remaining physical tissue exceeds 1% of the total mass, the body can be rebuilt after consuming a large amount of energy.]

[Cellular Evolution: Possesses extremely high resistance to all negative status effects (poisoning, curse, bleeding, etc.).]

"It's safe."

Shen Tian lay sprawled on the soft bed in a "Tai" shape, looking at the ceiling and laughing like a 300-pound child.

Left hand: [Innate Blade Body], Right hand: [Blood Rebirth]

What's the point of explaining this?

Shen Tian embodies the greatest truth.

"Next..."

Shen Tian glanced at the deep night outside the window.

Although my body was very excited, my mind had reached its limit.

I have to attend that so-called commendation ceremony tomorrow.

Since Qin Zhenshan has made such a big scene, it would be a bit disrespectful for me, the main character, to show up with dark circles under my eyes.

"sleep."

Shen Tian turned off the system panel and pulled the blanket over his head.

This time.

In this dangerous world.

He finally got a truly restful sleep.
