My skills have mutated again!

Chapter 360 Second Wave of Picking Up Bargains, Buff: Hunger!
It was supposed to be a performance, but in reality, it was a deliberate avoidance of using non-existent extraction techniques to prevent instantly killing the mimicry puppet.

The rest of the time, we'll fight it the same way we always have.

The good news is that Master Huiling previously broke through the ghostly nature of this place with a single blow, making Leviathan less troublesome than before.

This mimicry puppet possesses only all of Leviathan's strength from his lifetime.

As a second-order giant, Leviathan is very strong, but for Xia Lin, it is not an existence beyond her reach.

Xia Lin's current strength is also in this category, which makes the two evenly matched and evenly matched.

On one side, Leviathan transformed into Thor and summoned thunder, turning the surrounding land into a thunderous inferno.

Meanwhile, Xia Lin summoned the east wind to form a killing formation, clashing with Leviathan's thunder without being at a disadvantage.

Whenever Leviathan is injured, a fleshy mass emerges from the void to repair Leviathan's wounds. This is also Yanjie's skill, which transforms the mimicry puppet into an unkillable cockroach.

Xia Lin was not to be outdone. With a flash of mirror light behind her, Scarlett constantly adjusted the timeline so that Xia Lin could escape by reversing time if she encountered danger.

The situation evolved relatively smoothly into the bladder-like predicament that Xia Lin had hoped for.

However, the pressure is also considerable.

Without the Ghostly Realm characteristic, this place still possesses the Reverse Origin characteristic and the Dimensional Stomach characteristic, which will inevitably have a certain impact on Xia Lin's strength.

Fortunately, with the combined strength of Xia Lin and Scarlett, they seem to be slightly stronger than Leviathan, which allows Xia Lin to stabilize the situation.

He glanced at Master Huiling out of the corner of his eye.

When Xia Lin saw that Master Huiling, together with his two junior brothers, had temporarily withstood the pressure from the four mimic puppets, he felt slightly relieved.

……

In the tenth minute, the first casualty of the battle appeared.

It was the mimic puppet that resembled a martial artist.

The puppet was torn to shreds by Master Huiling's sword, and before the flesh could even repair itself, it was reduced to dust.

However, just as the puppet shattered, an even larger mass of flesh was squeezed out of the void, transforming once again into the form of the martial artist.

Yanjie had collected 20 doll cakes, but only released five in the first round. The five mimicry puppets that just appeared were not the final test, but only the beginning.

Considering the characteristics of this place, which suppresses outsiders, the mimicry puppets remain unaffected.

The decline of one thing means the growth of another.

In the thirteenth minute, one of Huiling Zhenren's junior brothers was pierced through the heart by a puppet resembling Qingjue, and his soul was destroyed.

At the thirty-fifth minute, another junior brother of Master Huiling was bitten on the back of the neck by Yanjie and sucked into Yanjie's mouth like a noodle.

Master Huiling's eyes were bloodshot, but he had no solution.

The deaths of his colleagues increased the pressure on Master Huiling. He could barely protect himself, so how could he think about anything else?
After an unknown amount of time, Master Huiling was already covered in wounds and gradually became unable to withstand the siege of the four mimic puppets.

Thinking of his bold words when he arrived, and looking at his current miserable situation, Master Huiling spoke angrily, his voice carrying for miles.

"I have spent my life in the military, but I never expected to suffer such a calamity today."

"Fine, fine!"

"Let me die?! I'll make sure you don't fare any better!!"

Amidst the surging immortal power, immortal souls were present.

This Master Huiling also had a fiery temper. Seeing that the situation was not going well, he actually tried to self-destruct on the spot!

However, just as his immortal soul began to expand, a voice suddenly came from below!

"Immortal, please wait!"

The one who spoke was Xia Lin.

Xia Lin's voice made Master Huiling slightly slow down his self-destruction.

Before he could look down at Xia Lin, four dazzling lights flashed by, passing through the four mimicry puppets that were attacking him.

Something happened that left Master Huiling completely bewildered.

The light swept across the mimic puppet without any obstruction, and the puppet froze on the spot.

Then, endless light burst forth from inside the mimicry puppet's body, absorbing and melting it.

In less than a second, the four mimic puppets had transformed into four black crystal beads of different sizes, which fell into Xia Lin's hands.

This scene left Master Huiling stunned.

His face flushed red when he saw Xia Lin put the crystal bead away.

"If you had this skill, why didn't you use it sooner?!"

Xia Lin sighed, "I am also waiting."

"What are you waiting for?"

Xia Lin turned his head and pointed to the cylindrical figure behind him that represented the county magistrate.

"Wait for this!"

Master Huiling then looked at the county magistrate.

With his cultivation level as an Immortal King, he quickly realized what Xia Lin was referring to.

"This is……"

"This is the way to crack this monster's stomach!"

It was exactly one hour later.

A faint black light emerged from the county magistrate's body and merged into Senluo's stomach.

Suddenly, the entire Senluo Stomach trembled as if some unknown change had occurred!
……

When the county magistrate activates this ultimate event and waits for one hour, it will permanently distort and alter the cosmic rules of the current dimension, with itself at its core.

Right now, everyone is inside the Senra Stomach.

The essence of this Senra Stomach is actually an independent dimensional space.

In terms of its nature, the End of This World is the nemesis of this type of skill!

As mentioned before, without escaping the confinement of this Senluo Stomach, Xia Lin cannot access the wrong entity, and therefore cannot extract the bug to benefit himself.

Therefore, whatever Xia Lin's plans are, cracking this Senluo stomach is the first step.

When Xia Lin realized his predicament, the first thing that came to mind was the end of this world.

When he has nothing to do, he often simulates the different applications of his various skills in his mind. And the End of This Realm is not only a skill that enhances the combat power of the Black Source Overlord form. The nature of this skill determines that it is also good at breaking through dimensional domain skills.

Just like right now!
As the end of this world officially took effect, Senra's stomach began to tremble violently.

The dimensions created by skills are inherently simple and rudimentary, with few rules and low strength. This means that even a slight influx of external force can drastically alter the nature of the Senra Stomach!

Amidst the tremors, Master Huiling felt the debuffs falling on him flickering, and the continuous acid rain also fluctuated in intensity.

Even the ghost realm that he himself had destroyed appeared and disappeared intermittently. In a flash of light and shadow, countless cracks, some real and some fake, appeared from all directions, as if Senluo's stomach had malfunctioned.

The malfunction is getting worse!
Until the entire Shinra stomach began to break apart.

Xia Lin bowed to Master Huiling at the end.

"Until we meet again, my lord."

Master Huiling returned the greeting in a daze, and after a long pause, he finally managed to utter four large words.

"See you later..."

After thinking for a moment, he added, "I must thank you both for this round."

Xia Lin smiled but remained silent, thinking to himself that he would like to let him die to reduce the variables, but since he was a Celestial King, his self-destruction would inevitably blast him into serious injury. He really had no choice but to deal with this.

Just as Scarlett was taken into the hidden cave, Senluo's stomach completely ruptured, and the county magistrate, who had been based there, lost his foothold. However, Xia Lin scooped her up and took her into the hidden cave as well.

Given the current situation, there's no need to delay for another hour before the county magistrate can dispel the effects of this world's end and complete the retrieval of the county magistrate.

After completing all this, Xia Lin bowed to Master Huiling in farewell and turned to leave.

With a flash of light, Xia Lin had already left the Senluo Stomach.

A faint tremor and a chilling howl emanated from all directions, but the sounds seemed to be separated by thousands of miles, making them indistinct and difficult to discern.

It's normal to have difficulty distinguishing them.

"After all, I'm standing inside this wrong belly right now..."

Xia Lin muttered to herself, but a smile played on her lips.

The non-existent light of extraction had already enveloped Xia Lin's entire body, forming a comprehensive protective barrier to ensure his safety.

This move was correct.

As he detached from the Senluo Stomach and entered the wrong body, the Reverse Source Force Field struck again, attempting to sever Xia Lin's connection with the professional system.

This was destined to be a futile effort, allowing Xia Lin to continue extracting the reverse source force field in order to obtain unknown artifacts.

Of course, at the moment, unknown artifacts are not that important.

He looked up and looked around.

The surrounding area was a blood-red mess.

The substance, which appeared to be flesh and blood, lay scattered all around Xia Lin, constantly writhing, but mixed within the flesh and blood were unknown crystals or soil and sand...

Xia Lin couldn't tell which part of the body it was, but after thinking about it, she decided it didn't matter.

"I don't need to know what part of my body it is, I just need to know this one thing."

"The time for harvest has arrived."

As Xia Lin thought this to himself, he felt his feet sink.

However, the non-existent light of extraction came into contact with the ground beneath their feet, and the extraction quickly took effect.

The flesh and blood beneath his feet instantly transformed into chaotic light, converging in Xia Lin's hand and ultimately transforming into a black crystal called "bug".

One portion at a time, one piece at a time.

Many grains of sand make a tower; many small things add up to a great sum.

Xia Lin, however, was not overjoyed by the harvest; instead, he became even more cautious and vigilant.

Because nobody knows what kind of risks exist within this flawed body!
The risk was fast approaching.

Layers of light and shadow appeared from all around, and the ghostly energy seemed to be transforming into an endless purgatory.

This is precisely the eighteen levels of hell of the Forest King!
The error also sensed the foreign object invading its body and immediately unleashed its ghostly aura within, attempting to expel Xia Lin from its body!

This power was so strong that Xia Lin could not resist it.

Just as the force was dragging him away, trying to drive him away, a flash of light appeared within Xia Lin's body.

This time, he simply activated the first function of the Spirit Book: Deception!
With the help of good luck, we can achieve enough results within ten minutes, so that the trip will not have been in vain!
Yes, in Xia Lin's plan, the only time he could truly reap the benefits was this mere ten minutes blessed by incredible luck!

This is a comprehensive assessment based on the current situation and the comparison of strengths.

The risks are manageable, and the returns are quite substantial.

It was as if divine intervention was at play.

That ghostly power vanished without a trace in the blink of an eye!

It's not because the mistake is conforming to fate that my thoughts have inexplicably changed.

Rather, it was the external situation it was facing that forced it to divert its attention and made it difficult to attend to Xia Lin.

The original site of Senluo Ancient City.

Not long after Xia Lin left Senluo's stomach.

Hui Ling Zhenren's immortal soul also flew out of Senluo's stomach, but it did not appear in the wrong body. Instead, following the connection with the Fate Ghost, it appeared beside the Fate Ghost. As soon as it stood firm, Hui Ling Zhenren clenched its teeth and its face became ferocious.

They came with great ambitions, but reality has been a disaster.

Reaching out to touch the spirit of fate, the two instantly merged into one!

One of the ultimate techniques of the Ghost Control Sect: Harmony between Man and Ghost!
The error itself was not even level twelve, and even though the Fate Ghost was not actually level twelve, it still suppressed the error.

Just now, when Xia Lin and the others were in Senluo's stomach, it was precisely because the Fate Ghost had diverted most of the wrongdoer's energy that the wrongdoer's counterattack was insufficient, and they were not able to kill everyone in a short time.

Right now, at this moment when Xia Lin has begun his fraudulent scheme, fate has shifted the situation, making it develop in a direction favorable to Xia Lin.

Outwardly, this manifests as Master Huiling using the art of uniting humans and ghosts to vow to eradicate wrongdoing!
The will-o'-the-wisps grew even more intense, spreading across the sky like a green storm of flames.

Faced with this level twelve attack, he instinctively went all out to defend.

In this situation, the error has no energy left to deal with Xia Lin in its belly.

Xia Lin only felt that as soon as the fraud was activated, the ghostly realm that was pulling him away immediately disappeared.

Following his intuition, Xia Lin lifted his leg and took a step, rushing straight upwards.

Countless non-existent extracts were unleashed by Xia Lin. At this moment, Xia Lin was like a hedgehog covered in sharp thorns, and wherever he passed, the erroneous body tissues quickly turned into bug crystals.

After traversing for a full five minutes, I discovered countless bugs.

The erroneous counterattack failed to materialize; instead, the faint ghostly howls grew stronger and stronger!
At one point, Xia Lin suddenly stopped and stood still.

Looking ahead, Xia Lin grinned.

"It is indeed here!"

What appeared before him was a thin, translucent layer of flesh and blood.

Through the flesh and blood, one can clearly see the outside world, where the demons are tearing the heavens and earth apart.

The howling energy gusts swept wildly, shattering the void, but they were powerless against the thin layer blocking Xia Lin's view.

Looking upwards, you can see nineteen spherical objects of varying sizes swaying continuously.

This place is precisely the wrong neck.

Above them are the nineteen incorrect heads.

It is also a treasure trove for Xia Lin.

"Save me... save me..."

A clear voice called out to her, and Xia Lin turned to look at the distance.

Then, not far away, ghostly energy twisted and transformed into the shape of the Forest King.

He looked at Xia Lin with a pleading expression.

"Save me, and I can give you anything you want."

These words made Xia Lin laugh.

"Actually, I can get what I want without saving you."

As soon as the words fell, the extracted light surged forth, sweeping towards Xia Lin's head like a tidal wave.

Everything that came into contact with the Light of Extraction instantly became illusory, eventually turning into a bug crystal, which was then taken into Xia Lin's Hidden Soldier Cave.

The figure of the Forest King in front of them also faded and disappeared without a trace!

……

Outside, the demons fiercely attacked Error, only to suddenly find that Error had frozen in place.

Nineteen heads on its neck emitted a dazzling light, which quickly melted away all nineteen heads!
However, the nature of the error is special, and there is no such thing as a fatal weakness in essence.

As soon as the nineteen heads disappeared, hundreds more heads emerged from other parts of the body, taking over control of Yanjie's body.

The Spirit Master, who had merged with the Fate Ghost, did not understand the reason for this change for a time, but that did not stop it from continuing to spew flames and not stopping until it had killed the wrongdoer.

Xia Lin, meanwhile, paid no attention to the fierce battle outside.

He simply stood there, watching the severed limbs fall from the sky, while continuing to activate the non-existent extraction to extract the erroneous body tissues nearby. With a wave of his hand, he collected most of the severed limbs into his personal space.

This isn't because Xia Lin has any strange quirks.

These severed limbs are likely a significant gain!
Finally, look at the remaining things that cannot be contained.

Only two items could not be included in one's personal space.

The object was a box carved with a ghost's head.

The box's material is unknown, and it has an eerie atmosphere. Upon closer inspection, the item's attributes come into view.

[Life Box (Race Foundation Level Item): A personal item of Sen Shuhan. It contains Sen Shuhan's Ghost Core, which is the foundation and lifeblood of Sen Shuhan.]

The ghost is formless; the key lies in its core.

To protect the Ghost Core, the Ghost Cultivators, drawing inspiration from the Lich system, created this object called the Life Box. As long as the Life Box exists, they will live forever.

Xia Lin was slightly impressed by Sen Shuhan's tenacious vitality, but then kicked the life box away and ignored it.

The Life Box possesses a certain degree of living nature, therefore it cannot be stored in a personal space.

At the same time, Xia Lin did not understand the working principle of the Fate Box and was worried that Sen Shuhan might have a backup plan on it, so he dared not put it into the Hidden Soldier Cave for fear of causing trouble.

Just throw it away, don't bother with it.

The other object is Luo Zhidao, which is encased in Luo Tian amber.

He was completely protected by the Luo Tian Amber, making him impervious to all magic.

But since people are undoubtedly alive, they cannot be included in a personal space.

Looking at Luo Zhidao, who was protected by Luo Tian Amber, Xia Lin sent out a non-existent beam of extraction light, but it had no effect.

Various skill lights flashed in succession, and Xia Lin used various items.

After working for a full minute, Xia Lin still hadn't left a single mark on the Luo Tian amber.

"spit!"

Xia Lin spat on Luo Tian Amber and turned to leave without saying a word.

This time, Xia Lin couldn't take Luo Zhidao's life.

……

In the next four minutes, Xia Lin made rapid progress, honing his skills wherever he went, maximizing his benefits to the fullest extent possible.

Ten minutes later, Xia Lin immediately activated his ability to jump out of the Three Realms and escape the danger!

Within those ten minutes, the error shrank by half in size.

Unfortunately, this still didn't save the day.

However, whether Xia Lin lived or died was no longer his concern.

This round of adventure ends here. Xia Lin is ready to call it a day and plans to stay here until the time limit for the Ash Zone expires.

Having escaped the cage formed outside the Three Realms, Xia Lin opened his personal space and began to take stock of his gains.

First, there's the bug crystallization.

Xia Lin took out black crystals of various sizes and piled them up in the white cage like a small mountain.

Amidst the eerie flashes of light, these crystals spontaneously fused together, but Xia Lin quickly realized that he could still separate them.

"Or perhaps they can come together and help me achieve a huge wish."

"Or break it down and use it little by little..."

The first method seems to be better in comparison.

Don't ask for help with small things, only ask for help with big things. That's the correct way to use this thing.

Collect the bug crystal.

Xia Lin already had an idea on how to use it—it would definitely be to solve the problem of insufficient skill slots.

But it would be best to wait until after leaving the Ashes Zone to make this wish.

Then, Xia Lin opened his personal space and released the seventeen types of severed limbs he had collected earlier.

Before the mistake, there were 19 heads. Apart from the Forest King and Luo Zhidao, the other 17 heads were all taken by Xia Lin.

Some of these people had recently died and were likely able to meet the conditions for using the Stability Chapter.

Xia Lin conducted the experiments one by one, but found the results to be less than ideal.

Leviathan's corpse is unusable—because he has been dead for too long, and his personal space has collapsed.

If you do the math, more than half a month has passed since Leviathan's death, and even a Stability Chapter of Foundation level couldn't open his personal space.

Then there's Yanjie.

This man died around the same time as Leviathan—don't be fooled by his apparent life within the erroneous body; it's just an illusion, merely the effect of the primal hunger force.

In fact, after he merged with the error, the person named Yanjie ceased to exist.

Then there were five other people.

The five people had been dead for too long to warrant the Stability Chapter's effect.

"So, there are only ten people who can inherit the estate."

There are only ten.

But there are ten Level 11 students.

These people are not Emberwalkers, but as non-Emberwalker professionals, they also have things like personal storage spaces. Exchanging a Stability Chapter for their legacy is definitely profitable overall.

However, Xia Lin had another thing to do before opening the treasure chest.

Arriving in front of Yanjie's large head, which was still open with its mouth opening and closing as if it were eating.

With a thought, the Spirit World Book shone brightly and appeared in Xia Lin's hand.

As the Spirit Book drew closer, a grayish-yellow light flowed from Yan Jie's head and eventually merged into the Spirit Book.

As an apostle of the evil god, Yanjie possesses the evil god's gift: primal hunger.

This is undoubtedly the power of an evil god. Therefore, after Yanjie's death, this power of the evil god can be devoured and absorbed by the Spirit World Book, transforming into Xia Lin's power!
The light grew increasingly intense, but after several minutes it gradually dimmed and eventually disappeared.

And Yanjie's mouth finally shut shut, and he fell completely silent.

Xia Lin looked down at the Book of Spirits.

The new attribute descriptions come into view.

[Function Two: Spirit Realm Kingdom: This book can absorb the essence of evil gods to create a spirit realm kingdom. Depending on the essence of the evil gods absorbed by the spirit realm kingdom, it will provide you with different buffs.]

[Current Buff 1: Deception: Omitted]

[Current Buff 2: Hunger (Incomplete): Greedy Gluttony, Frenzied Digestion! You have gained the right to use primal hunger-related skills. Furthermore, you can extract and purify hunger power by consuming various high-energy substances!]

Current Hunger Level: 0

[Note: Because the Hunger buff is incomplete, your efficiency in extracting Hunger energy will be very low.]

[The power of hunger grants you an extra ability: ultimate digestion!]

[Ultimate Digestion: Consumes varying amounts of hunger energy to quickly digest everything you want to digest!]

Xia Lin frowned, then quickly paused, stunned.

This ability seems to have some basis in reality.
