<strong><b>Chapter 12</b></strong><strong><b></b></strong><strong><b>Three Elements, Strength Surges</b></strong>
Half an hourter, in an empty alley, Qin Feng took out a Level 1 Thunder Beast Core he had just bought. Without hesitation, he swallowed it.
As the beast core dissolved, its energy tempered his body, rapidly enhancing his physique.
“Ding! Sessfully devoured Level 1 Thunder Beast Core. Flesh Thunder-attribute increased by 7%…”
Qin Feng eagerly pulled up his attribute panel:
Practitioner: Qin Feng
Wind Element Realm: Quasi-Elementalist
Thunder Element Realm: Quasi-Elementalist
Talent Skill: God-level Devouring
Combat Power Index: 324 points
His Thunder element had also reached the Quasi-Elementalist level, raising hisbat power from 294 to 324 points. He was now even closer to the 500-point threshold required to be a One-Star Elementalist.
“Haha! Under the Elementalist level, no one should be my match!” Qin Fengughed joyfully.
“Ding! Congrattions to the host forpleting a regr training task. Reward: one portion of Ice Element Aptitude Enhancer (Divine Grade).”
“Ding! Would the host like to use it?”
“Use!”
“Ding! Enhancing aptitude…”
This time, a cool energy flooded into Qin Feng’s body, different from the previous experiences, as it carried the characteristics of ice but still felt soothing. Qin Feng closed his eyes and immersed himself in the transformation, enjoying the process for several minutes.
“Ding! Congrattions to the host for sessfully enhancing ice element aptitude!”
<em><i>Another elemental talent!</i></em>
Qin Feng immediately checked his attribute panel and froze for a moment.
“System, why is my ice element aptitude only at the genius level?”
“Ding! A reminder to the host: your initial ice element sensing rate was 0.5, while wind and Thunder were both 0.7. The lower the sensing rate, the harder it is to improve. That’s why your ice element isn’t as strong as the other two.”
“Oh, I see!”
Qin Feng understood, but he didn’t mind. A genius-level talent, rare as it was, already put him ahead of millions. Besides, this world was full of rare treasures, some of which could even enhance one’s aptitude.
“Ding! The system has detected that the host now possesses ice element aptitude. Reward: one Level 4 Ice Beast Core.”
“Nice!” Qin Feng smiled.
With a thought, a white beast core appeared in his hand, radiating a strong chill. This was the Ice Beast Core.
Just as Qin Feng was about to devour it, the system issued a prompt.
“Ding! A reminder to the host: your ice element talent is at the genius level. The strength of your talent affects the absorption efficiency of beast cores.”
“A peerless talent can absorb 100% of the beast core, while a genius-level talent can only absorb 80%.”
Qin Feng paused.
<em><i>It seems that talent levels are indeed significant. So, is there an aptitude higher than peerless-level?</i></em>
As far as I know, peerless-level talent is the highest on Earth.
“Ding! A reminder to the host: there is an invincible-level talent above peerless. The host can further upgrade talents bypleting specific tasks.”
“Whoa… there really is!” Qin Feng was shocked.
It seemed like the system was a vast treasure trove, and he would need to slowly uncover its secrets over time.
Qin Feng quickly swallowed the Ice Beast Core. A cooling energy spread through his body, enhancing every cell. His strength and senses grew sharper by the second.
“Ding! Sessfully devoured Level 4 Ice Beast Core. Ice-attribute increased by 67%…”
Qin Feng brought up his attribute panel again:
Cultivator: Qin Feng
Wind Element Realm: Quasi-Elementalist
Thunder Element Realm: Quasi-Elementalist
Ice Element Realm: Late-Stage Body Strengthening Realm (67% Ice Attribute)
Talent Skill: Divine Devour
Combat Power Index: 417 points
“Mybat power has reached 417 points! I’m getting closer to the One-Star Elementalist threshold!”
Qin Feng felt ted. With his current strength, even if he couldn’t defeat a One-Star Elementalist, he would have a chance to escape. Normally, a Quasi-Elementalist had no chance to flee in front of an Elementalist, let alone fight back.
He now felt more confident in protecting Chu Chu. Even if they encountered a beast during patrols, he would be able to help her escape.
His only concern was Lin Xuyang.
“Ding! Divine Challenge task initiated!”
Task Details: Enter the challenge space for a high-difficulty challenge.
If you die, you can be revived, but there is no reward.
If you seed, the rewards will be abundant.
First Unlock Condition: All three elements must be at the Body Strengthening Realm Late Stage or higher.
Next Unlock Condition: All three elements must be at One-Star Late Stage or higher.
“Huh! A divine challenge? And it involves death?”
Qin Feng was taken aback.
If death was involved, the challenge was undoubtedly perilous. Fortunately, there was the possibility of revival.
“Ding! The host has only three challenge attempts!”
“Ding! A reminder to the host: if you break through to the Elementalist level in any element, you will lose the challenge qualification.”
“Ding! Does the host choose to ept the challenge?”
“Uhh…”
Qin Feng broke out in a sweat. The challenge seemed difficult, with strict cultivation limitations.
“Challenge epted!” He quickly made his decision.
“Ding! Choice sessful. Reward: God-levelbat technique. Data input in progress…”
Suddenly, an overwhelming amount ofbat techniques and experience flooded Qin Feng’s mind, making him rapidly improve.
“Ding! Entering the challenge map—Fire Hell Realm in 10 seconds… 10… 9… 8… 7…”
