Fist collided with flesh.
Chang Long’s muscles were violently destroyed, bones shattered layer by layer at this moment, and his body flew out like an arrow pulled on a full string.
Until he slammed into a large tree, the trunk cracked like a turtle shell, and the huge impact force was completely dissipated.
At this moment, Chang Long’s body was somewhat twisted, his chest rising and falling with each breath, blood flowing out like a string of beads, barely alive.
"Hit by my Blood Qi Burst punch, you will die too."
Chang Long spat blood, a crazed expression on his face.
Baiyu paid him no attention; Chang Long’s punch just now was indeed terrifying. Without the Five-Second Real Man, he might have been in real danger.
The powerful recovery power of Ice Skin Jade Bone Skill immediately manifested.
In just a few breaths, the wounds on Baiyu’s body stopped worsening and began to heal.
Chang Long’s smile froze.
As blood kept flowing out of his mouth, he turned his head towards Charman, his eyes full of resentment.
Charman was also very flustered.
He hadn’t expected the opponent to be this formidable.
Although the investigation report showed this guy only had a glowing superpower that was hard to resist, he had prepared sunglasses, ready to put them on at any time.
But it seemed now that sunglasses weren’t the focus at all!
His true strength was unexpectedly strong!
So strong that Chang Long was instantly killed by a punch from him, giving Charman no chance to support.
"It seems you really feel invincible."
Charman took off his clothes, his flesh writhing like tumors, two tentacles with suction cups growing from his shoulder blades, slapping the ground.
A piercing sound emanated from the suction cups of the tentacles.
This sound was incredibly ethereal, fluctuating, with a strange seductive power, like the mumbling of an Evil God.
Such a bizarre creature would make most people feel spiritually unstable upon sight.
But Baiyu, having seen worse, instead perked up his ears, carefully listening to the sound.
After listening for a while, he realized.
This thing increases one’s Pollution Level!
He had never encountered such a thing, akin to a mutation, yet maintaining its thoughts while polluting others.
The two tentacles clearly had strong power, even affecting someone with his firm spirit and will. The Pollution Level was increasing at the terrifying speed of one point per minute.
If an ordinary person heard this sound, they would likely mutate on the spot.
"Indeed, such evil methods are intolerable today."
Baiyu stepped closer to Charman.
And Charman’s face grew uglier, with cold sweat barely visible on his forehead.
This is definitely wrong!
Why isn’t the opponent afraid or terrified?
This appearance, the Sound of Pollution he emitted, shouldn’t be ineffective!
But this person showed no signs of mutation, his mind clear, even in a better state compared to when Charman hadn’t activated the Sound of Pollution.
Are you the monster or am I the monster!
Anyone facing the Sound of Pollution from the Blood Lord would have mutated, definitely not this easily.
It must not be enough!
Charman took a deep breath, channeled all his Blood Qi into the tentacles, directly maximizing the Sound of Pollution.
All around seemed filled with whispers of gods and devils, seductive sounds everywhere.
Baiyu halted his steps.
Indeed very formidable!
Now it could increase his Pollution Level by two points per minute, truly terrifying!
This rebellious ticking time bomb must be eliminated, or it will be a disaster!
The Sound of Pollution must have consumed a massive amount of Charman’s Blood Qi.
So facing Baiyu directly, he almost didn’t react.
"You must be an Extraordinary; your Blood Qi is too weak."
"Inferior even to an ordinary Tier Nine Martial Artist."
The Living Iron Short Blade slashed, almost with no resistance, Charman’s two tentacles were directly cut off and fell to the ground. Before he could react, the side of the short blade suddenly revealed a dark muzzle.
Blood splattered out.
A bullet pierced through his forehead.
The modified short blade, its bullets could still carry Blood Qi.
Even though Extraordinary’s recovery is abnormal, the brain mixed into mush leads only to death.
Baiyu exhaled deeply, wiped clean the blood on the short blade, hid it in his sleeve, and began corpse searching.
Killing these two gave him a sense of immense relief, the pressing danger lingering for so long in his heart dissipated somewhat at this moment.
The search didn’t take long.
A rusted, shoddily made pistol by some third-rate manufacturer, a plan, and a mobile phone were all Baiyu found.
The plan detailed part of their scheme, ultimately pointing towards Hades Prison.
The phone contained some contacts.
But the notes were like "1, 2, 3" types, giving no clues.
Baiyu randomly dialed a few, but they were either disconnected or unanswered.
"The plan and clues should be handed over to the Bounty Hunter Association, they surely didn’t expect such a mission to lure a big fish."
Baiyu collected the spoils.
The rusted pistol turned out to be a Magical Item, storable in the Scholar Space.
[You came in contact with the Sound of Pollution from the Blood Lord, Mysticism Knowledge +200, gained new knowledge—composition of blood.]
Sitting on the lawn, waiting for Jiang Huo to collect the bodies, Baiyu’s expression shifted slightly.
A wave of knowledge flooded his mind.
"Human blood consists of blood cells and plasma, blood cells include red cells, white cells, and platelets..."
This new knowledge was extensive.
Not only did it talk about the Human Race, but it also mentioned other races, Exotic Beasts, listing the differences and characteristics of their blood—a vast treasure trove of knowledge.
Obviously, this was only part of the knowledge about blood.
Differing from biological science of his past life.
In this world, human, animal, Exotic Beast, and other races’ blood had already been extensively eroded and transformed by Spiritual Qi, thus generating the indescribable force of "Blood Qi."
Research on the effects of Spiritual Qi on blood has always been a significant scientific issue.
Humans struggle to harness the power of blood.
But many races, even Sub-humans, are born with bloodline inheritance abilities, such as Gan Yuhan of the Cat Demon Race with formidable recovery.
This is the innate power of "bloodlines."
Baiyu carefully read through this knowledge, undisturbed by any mumblers, hallucinations, or inappropriate scenes.
Knowledge from the Evil God, filtered by the Scholar Space, could be absorbed without harm!
But the tricky part is.
You must personally encounter such weirdness to gain knowledge.
Moreover, this ability clearly appeared after accepting the [upgrade Mysticism to LV2], a Nightmare Difficulty quest, as a convenience provided during tasks.
"It seems not just task rewards, accepting Nightmare Difficulty results in assistance from the Scholar Space, like the Aura of a hot-blooded protagonist back then, an added benefit."
Baiyu deepened his understanding of the space’s functionalities once more.
