Chapter 695: Rapid Level Up

(Unedited)

…

The strong surge of power could be felt in the air as the fluctuation of the universal energy is becoming intense. The Minotaur that was rendered immobile by Shin Jiao could not believe its eyes as it shows desperation and true fear.

It knew that it has encountered someone who is able to take all of its essence and power, the skill that the shadow beings prided themselves on, the power to devour everything in their path. And now, this same skill is being used towards it. So, as a shadow being it knew of its impending doom.

But what could it do? It could not even talk now as it didn't have a choice but to concentrate and try to restrain that strange object that suddenly entered its body. Using its domain, the shadow being is trying to isolate that object from its dark flesh.

Though it is able to minimize the siphoning of its essence, yet it is still futile.

It could feel a large amount of energy gushing out of its body and entering that small thing.

Suddenly, it feels that something is strange. The small thing inside its body seems to be slowing down.

Then it showed a shocked expression on its face as it soon discovers what that thing is doing. It could suddenly feel pure energy coming out from it. When that energy touches the dark flesh of the shadow being it would hurt it, but then it could still absorb the energy.

It wanted to absorb the energy as it is a way to replenish the essence in its body. However, the siphoning is faster than the refining of the energy. So it is still not worth it. Plus the pain it would encounter when absorbing that pure energy is very torturous.

Suddenly, the Minotaur felt a hand touching its stomach.

"It's that human again! Damn it! Why can't that human let me be?!" the Minotaur shouted in its mind as it wanted to squash Shin Jiao who is already standing in front of it and touching its stomach.

But it could not move. If it forcefully moves and stopped, it knew that it would surely die. Hence, because of fear, it didn't have any choice but to concentrate on restraining that thing. It knew that the humans could not hurt it anyway.

Suddenly, Shin Jiao said something which turned the mind of the Minotaur blank.

"How did he know that skill?" it thought.

However, it soon finds out that everything suddenly turned dark.

Shin Jiao on the other hand suddenly began absorbing the refined dark energy and has already been turned into universal energy.

He has to move fast as he could already see that the bullet is at its limit. No matter how strong the black ore material is, it still could not contain a shadow being that holds the power of a lord.

Strong and pure energy began coursing towards his body as he absorbs them in his dantian. But he knew that his capacity is not enough to absorb everything. So he shifted his eyes on his three companions.

"Help me absorb the rest of the pure energy!" he shouted while gritting his teeth.

The three looks at each other and with a bit of reluctance they walk closer. Vitina Kiwazo who is nearer to Shin Jiao suddenly discovered her body flying towards him. Then her hand extended and then touches the extended arm of Shin Jiao. This thoroughly shocked her as she did not expect that such a thing could happen. She feels that something is moving her body at will.

But before she could delve into that though, she suddenly feels pure universal energy gushing from Shin Jiao's hand towards her body.

She knew that it was something good so she did not hesitate and began absorbing it.

"You two, touch my arm quickly!" Shin Jiao shouted as he looks at Fushang Xu and Vlad Osmond.

Before the two could do anything they also feel the same sensation as Vitina and were forced to hold on to Shin Jiao's arm. Now with four people absorbing the pure refined energy from the bullet, the pressure on Shin Jiao and the Minotaur lessen especially the stress of the energy on the bullet itself.

Although this should be a good thing for the Minotaur, as it did not have to feel that excruciating pain. But it soon discovers that the absorption of its essence resumed and became faster.

One giant shadow being is rapidly being siphoned by four humans. This scene would surely shock the audience, but that is if only they are seeing this scene. However, due to the mysterious shielding that the shadow beings are using, the other immortals watching the battle happening on the planet is unable to spectate such a spectacle.

Three hours have passed and large beads of sweat could be seen trickling down the forehead of the four people absorbing the essence of the shadow being.

However, their dantian are already full to bursting. The four of them have already broken through a layer of their cultivation.

Shin Jiao has already reached the 74th spheres as he is the one absorbing the bulk of pure energy. And due to the rapid progress, it is already becoming painful for him. His physique has also reached the silver armor level which is in tandem with his level.

If one could see him now, then they would immediately recognize that he is a level 74 immortal. He slowly opens his eyes and looks at the three who are struggling to control the pace of the energy absorption.

From that scene, he knew that they are at their limits. And it would cause some adverse effects if they continue.

Since they are unable to let go of their hands unconsciously, Shin Jiao decided to stop. He lets go of his hand and shifted his gaze to the shadow being who is now looking like a giant with only thin flesh and bones.

When the three felt that the pressure is gone, they open their eyes and then look at Shin Jiao. They just nodded their heads and then run to the side and began adjusting their power levels. They dare not be casual about it because they have discovered that their power has increased by leaps and bound.

Shin Jiao did not mind them and quickly pointed the gun towards the shadow being's chest. Then without warning, he pulled the trigger.

Bang!

Another bullet embedded itself in the shadow being's chest and this made the shadow being glare at Shin Jiao in disbelief. But it could not do anything and just waited. It waited in helplessness and despair until its large body was consumed by the two bullets unto nothingness, and then after that, a black smoke-like thingy returns to the void.

Shin Jiao looks at the three who are busy concentrating and then he discovered that the mysterious shielding around them is slowly vanishing.

He did not hesitate to pick up the two bullets filled with fluctuating energy and did not waste his time waiting for the three to finish adjusting their levels. Instead, he took out some ores in his ring and began crafting an energy storage device.

He knew that the two bullets would continuously refine the dark energy it has absorbed. Until now, he could even feel the universal energy coming out of those two bullets and he didn't want to waste them. Hence with the energy storage device, he could prevent the precious universe energy from being wasted.

As he finished and stored everything in his space ring, he also discovers that the three have already stabilized their power levels.

Vitina Kiwazo has already reached level 75. She is now a primary gold armor protector. Meanwhile, Fushang Xu and Vlad Osmond have reached level 79 from their previous level.

Shin Jiao thought that they have just jumped on level after absorbing a large amount of energy, but now he discovered that after more than five hours of refining their power, they have jumped by 2 to 3 levels.

But of course, he knew that they could not undergo such rapid jump in cultivation once again as it would prove fatal to their dantians. There is a chance that it might break due to the extreme and quick growth.

Their dantians need to acclimate themselves first to their current power level before going forward. Unlike him, whose cultivation style is different than the rest, almost everyone in the immortal land has the same concept of cultivation style, and it would take each of them years before they could improve.

After a while, the three open their eyes and showed a contented smile on their faces.

"Hey, Vitina… You… you already reached level 75. You're a gold armor protector now… This is great!…" Vlad Osmond exclaimed upon noticing Vitina's progression.

"What just happened? Did we… did we just absorb the energy of a shadow being?" Fushang Xu suddenly asked with disbelief written all over his face.

The two also had the same thought but their expression turned grave upon thinking of the possible repercussion of absorbing a shadow being's power.

Seeing their expression, Shin Jiao smiled and chuckled.

"You guys worry too much… we did not absorb the chaotic dark energy of the shadow being, but instead, pure energy of the universe. As you see…" Shin Jiao began explaining to them what happened.

He did not tell them that this skill was derived from reverse-engineering the skill used by the shadow beings in absorbing essences but just told them that it was all a fluke, and is part of his experiment.

The three wanted to hit Shin Jiao on his head for being too rash.

But they all believe in his words as they already knew that he was an artificer and an alchemist. They all knew how crazy those people in those professions are.

Soon the group continues on their journey and reached the end of the volcanic area and arrives in a vast and spacious desert.

Meanwhile, in the audience stand, everyone is looking at Shin Jiao's team as they have discovered some anomaly.

And this has also earned the attention of the rest of the powerful leaders of the towns and the city.
