Kill one monster, stack one poison, and I alone will poison my way across the world!

"No... this is a person?"

Su Chen hid in a dimly lit corner, watching the slightly chubby figure in the center of the instance constantly throwing potion bottles, his eyes twitching wildly.

"You're telling me this is a legitimate profession?"

He was truly amazed.

I originally thought that Lu Feng and Lu Qingqing on the 50th floor were already troublesome enough.

But compared to the president of the professional chamber of commerce in front of them, those two were simply adorably naive.

"As expected, the textbooks were right. None of these older generation powerhouses who left their illustrious names in history were easy to deal with!"

Su Chen grumbled and took a swig of blue potion.

at the same time.

"Whoosh whoosh-!"

Dense venom poured down like a torrential rain onto the strange, drugged creatures.

however.

A series of system prompts popped up.

"-immunity"

"-immunity"

"-immunity"

"..."

Those creatures mutated by the potion can also enjoy the 99% damage reduction probability of the [Time-Space Body]!

Occasionally, I'll get lucky and get the [Poison] status effect.

"-immunity!"

"..."

Even with highly toxic substances, a 99% immunity probability is required to deal damage.

To Su Chen's shock, the speed at which he cleared these medicinal creatures was not even as fast as the speed at which Jin Buhuan was refining them!

"Ding!"

[Hint: The Guardian Jin Buhuan has triggered Destiny Harmony!]

"Ding!"

[Hint: The gatekeeper Jin Buhuan has triggered multiple harmonies!]

Jin Buhuan's hands left a blur on the small alchemy platform.

He casually smashed bottle after bottle of medicine on the ground like trash.

Throughout the entire instance, the amount of living potion not only did not decrease, but actually increased.

The statue of Jin Buhuan was densely packed and tightly protected at the very center.

"Is this correct?"

Su Chen watched as Jin Buhuan triggered a skill and concocted several potions without using any materials.

This unscientific!

What happened to the law of conservation of matter?

"Damn it, even Grandpa Ox was scared to tears. No, this world isn't under Grandpa Ox's jurisdiction."

Just then.

Suddenly, an extremely dazzling purple-gold light burst forth from Jin Buhuan's alchemy platform!

The light even outshone the surrounding starlight.

[Hint: The gatekeeper Jin Buhuan has triggered the [Destined Harmony] event with an extremely high probability, successfully crafting a [High-Grade Berserk Potion (Epic)]!]

Jin Buhuan's projection, expressionless, picked up the bottle of purple potion radiating terrifying energy and casually smashed it on the ground.

"Snapped!"

The glass shattered.

The purple liquid expanded and rose wildly like boiling magma.

In just a few seconds.

A terrifying creature, nearly five meters tall and covered in purple muscle bulges, tore through the encapsulation of the medicine and let out a deafening roar!

"roar--!"

【Berserk Beast (Dark Gold Rank BOSS)】

[Rank: Dark Gold]

[Level: 40]

【Strength: 3140】

[Agility: 3180]

[Stamina: 3100]

【Spirit: 2100】

[Skills: Living Creatures, Potion Convergence, Berserk Pulse...]

……

Su Chen stared dumbfounded at the monster with the "Dark Gold Level BOSS" halo above its head.

"???"

He slowly typed out a huge question mark.

"An epic-level potion instantly turns a boss into a legendary-level boss?!"

Su Chen was shocked.

This is the first time I've ever seen a BOSS summon another BOSS.

"Fine. Let's see who's more perverted, huh? Let's see who's more perverted

Su Chen took a deep breath, his eyes turning extremely cold.

"The Abyss Awakens!"

"Buzz—!"

An extremely dense, purplish-black mist instantly enveloped Su Chen.

His eyes turned completely black.

A row of blood-red prompts immediately appeared on the system panel.

[Note: The skill [Abyss Awakening] has been activated.]

"120 seconds is enough."

Su Chen felt the surge of power within his body, and a smile appeared on his face, which was shrouded in black mist.

In Abyss Awakening state, all attributes are increased by 100%, and skill cooldown is reduced by 90%.

"Corrosive Serpent Guard!"

The staff slammed heavily to the ground.

The original 30-second cooldown time has been reduced to a mere 3 seconds with the 90% cooldown reduction!

"Boom boom boom!"

More than 17,000 snake guardians broke through the ground!

3 seconds later.

"Again!"

Another 17,000 snake guards rose from the ground!

Su Chen's mana was being drained away rapidly, but he didn't care at all.

In less than ten seconds.

The entire dungeon space on the sixtieth floor was almost completely filled with green venomous snake phantoms!

More than 50,000 corrosive snakes have formed a truly deadly poisonous forest!

"Zzzzzzzzz—!"

Countless streams of venom, like a green tsunami, surged towards Jin Buhuan and his army of potions in the center of the arena!

Quantitative change eventually led to qualitative change.

Even if the spacetime body has 99% damage immunity.

However, under such saturation attacks involving tens of thousands of targets, that 1% hit probability is magnified infinitely.

"Whoosh whoosh-!"

Green skull markers began to light up frantically above the heads of those living liquids.

The poison status effect was instantly applied to the entire area!

"-immunity!"

"-immunity!"

"-250208112!"

"-immunity!"

……

The damage numbers on the screen started jumping around.

The vast majority remain immune, but occasionally a number pops up, exceeding two hundred million!

The green, healing slime was still struggling to create ripples, but the "+5000" healing was completely insufficient.

"roar……"

The once majestic Dark Gold-level BOSS, the Titan Berserker, didn't even manage to touch Su Chen's clothes before its health bar was emptied by a barrage of venom, and it collapsed, turning into a pool of green pus.

The other living medicinal liquids also dissipated in large swathes, like harvested wheat.

The defense line was torn apart in an instant!

The dense venom breached the defenses and finally landed precisely on Jin Buhuan's projection.

[Highly Poisonous] status activated!

next second.

The highly toxic DOT damage started to appear.

"-immunity!"

"-immunity!"

"-250236616!"

"..."

It jumped out!

Su Chen stared intently at the health bar above Jin Buhuan's head.

Jin Buhuan's health bar... didn't budge an inch!

Just as those two hundred million points of true damage were about to deduct from his health.

A huge golden abacus phantom suddenly appeared above Jin Buhuan's projection.

The beads on the abacus were frantically moved, producing a series of crisp clinking sounds.

Followed by.

Jin Buhuan's money pouch suddenly exploded.

Countless glittering gold coins gushed out like a waterfall, forming a golden barrier that forcefully blocked the green poisonous gas from entering the body!

[Hint: The gatekeeper Jin Buhuan has triggered his hidden passive skill, "Spreading Wealth to Avert Disaster!"]

[Spend Money to Avert Disaster (Hidden Passive): When receiving damage sufficient to reduce health, forcibly consume your own gold to mitigate it. Mitigation ratio: 1 gold mitigates 1 point of damage.]

[Note: Jin Buhuan consumed 250236616 gold coins, successfully negating the poison damage!]

……

"???"

Su Chen stared at the system notification, his eyes wide as saucers.

Holy crap!

He immediately started swearing.

Such a skill exists?

He had seen people withstand damage with shields, people withstand damage by life steal, and even people recover health by eating friendly units.

But this was the first time his mother had ever seen someone directly deduct money from her bank account to mitigate the damage!

This is practically a testament to their immense wealth!

"Does that mean... as long as the gold coin isn't used up, you won't die at all?"

"No wonder he doesn't invest any points in stamina. Even if I had such a ridiculously powerful skill, I wouldn't invest in it either."

Su Chen looked pained.

He glanced at Jin Buhuan's bulging purse, which looked as if it contained a money bag from another dimension.

Who knows how much money this future president of China's largest chamber of commerce has on his projection!

At this time.

Because of the Tower of Babel's damage immunity mechanism, the poisonous attacks were once again judged as "-immune" for the next few seconds.

"Fine, you're going to try and throw money at me, huh?"

Su Chen raised his staff, a hint of violence flashing in his dark eyes.

"I'd like to see just how deep your wallet really is, you fatso!"

He can withstand the damage of over 200 million gold coins from a single jump.

What if the damage from twenty ticks exploded instantly?!

Even if Jin Buhuan becomes the president of the Chamber of Commerce in the future, at level 45, he will still be just a student.

How much money can it be?

Su Chen gripped Jin Buhuan's hand tightly.

"All Poisons Explode!"

In the [Abyss Awakening] state, the [Ten Thousand Poisons Explosion] skill, which originally had a 15-second cooldown, now only has a 1.5-second cooldown!

"Bang!"

A dull thud came from inside Jin Buhuan's body.

"-immunity"

I didn't win.

"Again!"

Su Chen stood in the center of the densely packed snake guards and continued to unleash his skills.

1.5 seconds later.

"All Poisons Explode!"

"-immunity"

"Again!"

"All Poisons Explode!"

"-immunity"

……

The time for the Abyss to awaken passed second by second.

Su Chen's heart was beating faster and faster.

This feeling of gambling with his life sent his adrenaline soaring.

It felt like going back to my past life to draw cards.

"The last twenty seconds!"

Su Chen glanced at the status bar and gritted his teeth.

"I refuse to believe it! All poisons will explode and cause death!!"

"Bang—BOOM!!!"

This time.

There is no gray font.

A massive, terrifying damage number filled Su Chen's field of vision!

"-5004732320!"

The projection of Jin Buhuan, which had been slowly and methodically taking out the medicine bottle, suddenly froze.

The enormous abacus phantom above his head let out a mournful cry of unbearable strain, the beads frantically moving and even sparking.

"Splash splash splash splash—!"

Countless gold coins sprayed out from his body, attempting to fill the gap left by the terrifying damage.

One hundred million!

Two hundred million!

Three hundred million!

Four hundred million...

When the gold coins surged to 1.3 billion, Jin Buhuan's money pouch at his waist was completely empty.

"Snap!"

The abacus phantom shattered with a crash!

[Notice: The gatekeeper, Jin Buhuan, has run out of gold coins; the "Spend Money to Avert Disaster" status has been removed!]

Without the protection of the gold coins, a violent explosion of toxins erupted directly from his body.

Jin Buhuan's slightly plump body was instantly torn into countless points of light!

[Hint: Successfully defeated Level 45 Jin Buhuan (Time-Space Projection), gaining 45000000 experience points!]

[Hint: Successfully cleared the 60th floor of the Tower of Babel.]

[Note: You have successfully cleared the Tower of Babel (Normal difficulty), and the dungeon progress has been reset.]

As the system notification sounded.

The black mist on Su Chen's body dissipated at the same time.

When the [Abyss Awakening] state ends, a 90% reduction in all attributes will instantly occur.

"thump."

Su Chen's legs went weak, and he collapsed onto the floor of the Star River Laboratory, panting heavily.

He looked listless, as if he had stayed up for three consecutive nights and then forced himself to take off several times.

Thirty seconds later.

The illusory snake guards that filled the arena vanished, and the entire space returned to deathly silence.

"Dry……"

Su Chen wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and looked at the spot where Jin Buhuan had disappeared, still feeling lingering fear.

"That old bastard almost killed me with money."

This skill mechanism is absolutely insane.

This is priceless... At level 45, he was just a student from Sky Dome Academy, yet he possessed 1.3 billion gold coins?

Have you no shame?

If Abyss Awakening hadn't reduced the cooldown by 90%, Su Chen might have been able to slowly whittle him down, but the process would have been much more agonizing.

If it were any other professional, even an SS-level hidden professional, they would definitely be worn down by this fat guy's money.

"call……"

Su Chen let out a sigh of relief.

Their gaze fell on the few orbs of light that remained on the ground after Jin Buhuan disappeared, radiating intense light.

Among them, the most dazzling was a strange crystal that emitted a multicolored luster.

His lips finally broke into a wide grin.

"After fighting for so long, it wouldn't be fair if I didn't get some good loot, would it?"

Su Chen calmed his breathing, walked over, and casually scooped it up.

[Hint: Obtained 10 Spacetime Cores (Rare Material).]

[Hint: Obtained Time Fragment Fragment (Epic Item) *1.]

……

Ten spacetime cores exploded directly.

Su Chen put it into his backpack and checked another special piece of loot.

An irregularly shaped crystal with vibrant colors.

[Fragments of Time]

[Rarity: Epic]

[Usage Requirements: Level 40 and below]

[Effect: Upon use, triggers Time Reversal, reducing the current class level of the user by 1 level (but not lower than 1 level).]

[Note: After a level reduction, all attribute points gained through leveling up are retained and unaffected by the level reduction. Learned skills will not be forgotten, and equipped gear is unaffected by level restrictions and will not be forcibly unequipped or rendered ineffective due to a level decrease. It can only be used 40 times in a lifetime.]

……

Su Chen: "!!!"

He stared intently at the system notifications, his breath catching in his throat.

Level reduced by 1, but attribute points retained?!

What does this mean?

This means that if he were to drop back to level 25 from level 26, all the attribute points he had at level 26 would remain.

then.

If he levels up back to level 26, he can get another free attribute point for leveling up!

And it can be used 40 times in a lifetime!

"This is simply... utterly shameless."

Su Chen swallowed hard.

It's important to know that everyone has a limited number of attribute points throughout their lifetime.

At the maximum level of 100 rebirths, the fixed and free attribute points you can obtain are a fixed number that can be calculated.

But this [Fragment of Time] can give someone a massive amount of attribute points, adding up to a full forty levels out of thin air!

Level 40!

This is equivalent to having a significant advantage in basic attributes compared to people of the same level!

"What's the point of leveling up? Isn't it just for attribute points?"

"No wonder Sky Dome Academy is so powerful, and has been able to maintain its position as the number one university in China for decades."

"You have 40 more attribute points than everyone else for no reason. Who can compare to that?"

"..."

Su Chen finally understood the true value of the Tower of Babel.

No wonder Zhan Lao, Lin Xiaotian, and other big shots also highly praise the Tower of Babel.

That's outright cheating!
