Chapter 239: Dream Beast, Dream Clan

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The Source Power went deep into the Source Power Skill Sealing Ball. In just two seconds, Lu Ming opened his eyes and had already acquired the Physique Realm Protective Technique: Divine Fire Shield!

Opening his attribute panel, Lu Ming’s eyes fell on the skill description for the Divine Fire Shield.

Divine Fire Shield (Novice) (1/100): Physique Realm Protective Technique. Its defense is slightly weak, but it can counter-injure the enemy.

“You have preliminary grasped the usage of the Divine Fire Shield. Your overall attributes+1, free attribute points+1!”

[Additional Special Effect: Defense Enhancement: Largely increases the defense of the Divine Fire Shield!]

“As expected!”

The Defense Enhancement special effect was applied to the new Body Forging Technique.

With a thought from Lu Ming, a thin pale red light film appeared around him.

The light film was extremely thin, as fragile as an eggshell, as though it could shatter with a tap.

However, this was just a Novice-level Flame Shield.

Lu Ming’s flame shield also had a faint blue light shimmering on it.

This made Lu Ming ponder for a moment, and he reached out to strike himself in the waist.

A shrill “Ah” rang out.

A 30% strength was simply unable to break through the defense of the Novice-level Flame Shield!

“This is good…”

Lu Ming’s eyes lit up and he could not help but increase his strength.

Soon, Lu Ming tested the defense limit of the Flame Fire Shield.

“It’s slightly weaker than the Micro-level Realm Source Power Armor, but not by much.”

This was already very terrifying!

It should be understood that the Micro-level Realm Source Power Armor protected every cell of Lu Ming’s body.

That layered defensive field was an absolute nightmare for any enemy.

Now, with just the Novice-level Divine Fire Shield, it appeared paper-thin on the surface, yet it already possessed about 80% of the defensive power of the Micro-level Realm Source Power Armor. Considering an increase in realm, the protective capabilities could be imagined!

This was the effect of the Divine Power Realm Source Power Armor on Lu Ming.

Subtly, Lu Ming had this thought.

The Source Power Armor hasn’t been completely phased out; it has just taken on a different form and continues to accompany me.

He now understood the true meaning of the sentence [Your sweat will not flow in vain].

Source Power skills evolve quickly, and until you cultivate them to the Divine Power Realm, Source Power skills are just a means of increasing attributes for me. But once you reach the Divine Power Realm, everything changes.

Leaving aside the tenfold increase for now, just this Divine Power special effect alone is worth cultivating!

With these thoughts in mind, Lu Ming sat back on the ground and returned to the Void Space.

A few seconds later in the Void Space.

The Divine Fire Shield had advanced to the Mastery stage.

All attributes+2, free attribute points+2.

The attribute gains were not significant, but the significance of Source Power skills was never solely about attributes.

A few minutes later, the Divine Fire Shield was upgraded to the Proficient level.

All attributes+3, free attribute points+3.

A few hours later, the Divine Fire Shield was upgraded to the Mastery level.

All attributes+4, free attribute points+4.

It was the same as the Source Power Armor.

The cultivation of the Divine Fire Shield could also be performed in conjunction with the Body Forging Technique or other Source Power skills, making the cultivation speed extremely fast!

On the 230th day of the Black Mist Calendar,

Lu Ming had just acquired the Divine Fire Shield for less than a day when he cultivated this Physique Realm Body Protection Technique to the Perfect Realm!

All attributes+40, free attribute points+40.

The terrifying tenfold increase in cultivation speed was evident!

“So, what kind of changes will advancing Exploding Fist to the Divine Power Realm bring me?”

After advancing the Body Protection Technique to the Divine Power Realm, Lu Ming became even more curious about the changes in offensive Source Power skills at the Divine Power Realm.

And curiosity naturally transformed into action.

It was a given, just keep practicing Explosive Fist!

At the same time that Lu Ming was immersed in cultivation,

In Archean City, within Heluo’s research laboratory, Heluo had made new progress.

To be precise, it was not that Heluo had made new progress, but rather the earliest Dream Virus-infected individuals, who were also members of the Soro Team, had progressed to a new stage.

“All!!”

Accompanied by a chilling and prolonged scream, Liu Qingmin’s raised hands slowly lowered.

The light in his eyes completely disappeared, leaving only a grayish haze.

“He’s dead.”

Huo Sheng, wearing a protective suit, said. And Meng Jie added,

“The cause of death is organ failure and severe malnutrition.”

After the Dream Virus progressed to the third stage, patients could no longer eat voluntarily. However, there were ways to replenish the patient’s body within the Black Mist Zone, such as the commonly used Nebulized Supplementary Feeding method.

This method atomized food and supplied it through the patient’s pores, similar to injecting glucose, but with higher efficiency.

Originally, according to calculations, Liu Qingmin was almost impossible to die of thirst or starvation. However, this morning, Liu Qingmin’s condition rapidly deteriorated, and the energy reserves in his body were consumed in a short period of time, eventually being drained!

That’s right, drained!

At the side, Heluo slowly closed her eyes under the protection of Ivy and Quan Chao.

Fragments of a faintly visible scene flashed across He Luo’s eyes.

At a certain moment, Heluo suddenly came back to her senses. She raised her hand and pointed at Liu Qingmin’s body, saying quickly!

“Something! Something’s coming out!”

As soon as she finished speaking, an illusory figure flashed out from the center of Liu Qingmin’s forehead.

Clearly visible, it was a small creature about the size of a palm, pitch-black all over, resembling a lizard but with only one eye, slowly crawling out of Liu Qingmin’s head…

The way it crawled out was somewhat strange.

It did not burst out from the head, but it seemed like Liu Qingmin’s head was connected to a peculiar space, and this thing crawled out from that peculiar space.

This strange scene left everyone slightly stunned.

In this moment of daze, the one-eyed lizard-like creature made a “gah gu” sound and disappeared on the spot like a dream bubble.

No one understood what was going on, except for Heluo, who looked pale.

Looking around, Heluo said bitterly,

“Prepare for battle… Although 1 don’t know what that thing was, but…”

At this point, Heluo paused for a moment and continued,

“But, in an hour, Archean City will become a battlefield!”

Strictly speaking, the Soro Exploration Team was indeed the first batch of infected people, but they were not the only ones in the first batch.

At that time, the green poisonous gas that Jing Yi had transformed into after his death was spread by the light door to the Flame Clan Ruin Forest.

The Dream Virus moved with the wind and had already covered most of the forest in a short period of time.

At that time, everyone who was searching for treasures in the forest had inhaled the poisonous gas and were not spared!

Some of them were explorers from Archean City. After returning to Archean City, they were captured and quarantined by the Land God Association.

But there was also a group of people from the surrounding tribes.

They did not have the help of the Sky Monitoring Bureau and were not very vigilant against things like viruses.

It could be imagined that at this moment, within the Hundred Thousand Mountains outside Archean City, there were countless people who had been infected with the Dream Virus, and it was unknown how many had progressed to the fourth stage of the virus infection!

In other words, it was the death stage!
