Survival at Sea: I Became Number One by Growing Mushrooms

The magic surged in, forming a vortex that made her body feel incredibly comfortable. Xu Jiawei felt completely refreshed, experiencing for the first time the sensation of becoming one with the magic. Her body now seemed to be made entirely of magic.

Xu Jiawei quietly absorbed everything, a smile appearing on her lips, her mind becoming increasingly clear and lucid.

What was once a very complicated problem, she can now easily figure out.

I also realized that the method I just used was too crude, and there were clearly better ways.

She immediately understood what the Mushroom God had just told her, as if she had grasped the essence of it. She understood the Mushroom God's magical fluctuations and then synchronized her own fluctuations with his.

Gradually, after their magic became intertwined, Xu Jiawei also felt a faint connection between herself and the Mushroom God.

[Ding! Congratulations to the player for independently mastering the special skill, Divine Descent: Communicate with the gods, the gods descend upon you, and your strength reaches the same level as the gods. A special skill with no side effects. (Feel the feeling of becoming a god!)]

Xu Jiawei slowly opened her eyes, seemingly still immersed in the state she had just been in, not yet having come back to her senses.

She looked around at her surroundings, and her mind went blank for a moment. Who am I? Where am I? Where is the temple? Why is this an empty space?

When Xu Jiawei lost consciousness, she didn't know that the temple had been personally demolished by the Dark God. Once the Dark God released his wide-range skills, the temple was reduced to ashes and flew away without even leaving ruins. No, it didn't fly away; there was smoke and dust everywhere around.

Xu Jiawei was speechless. What was this? How could there be so much dust? She was covered in dust and dirt, and she was about to choke to death.

Xu Jiawei looked around at the other players and was startled. Why were there so few players? How come there were only a few hundred left? What happened? Were they all dead?

Before Xu Jiawei could figure it out, the Dark God unleashed another wide-area attack. Several players couldn't dodge in time and lost their lives, later respawning in the distance. Commander Zhang immediately ordered, "Those without a chance to respawn, leave immediately!"

Two people immediately ran away into the distance, away from the battlefield. Xu Jiawei finally breathed a sigh of relief. "I was so scared. I thought everyone was dead." She didn't know how long she had been unconscious. She thought she had slept for more than ten days and all the players had died.

However, it wouldn't be wrong to say they were all dead, because there was no chance of resurrection and the player casualty rate was too high. Commander Zhang had no choice but to forcibly order these players who had no chance of resurrection to leave, in order to preserve the strong for humanity.

As a result, more and more people are leaving.

Upon seeing Xu Jiawei awake, the Mushroom God immediately said, "Are you really courting death? You actually dared to modify my body! You almost died, you know that?"

Xu Jiawei looked at her body blankly, then was startled. What happened to her? Why was she covered in blood? It seemed to be all her own blood. Why hadn't she felt anything before? No, she had felt something, like mental pain, but that was when her head was hurting. Why was there so much blood in her body?

"Now that you're awake, stop spacing out. This guy's about to come out," Mushroom God urged immediately.

Xu Jiawei immediately adjusted her mindset, said nothing, and used the Divine Descent skill. Instantly, the mushroom god transformed into light spots and entered Xu Jiawei's body. Xu Jiawei's body was surrounded by light spots, and her strength rose steadily. Level 70, level 80, and soon Xu Jiawei broke through to level 90, although it was only temporary.

Xu Jiawei sensed all of this. Although the energy was very strong, Xu Jiawei did not feel any discomfort. After all, this power did not belong to her, and her body was being controlled by another person.

The feeling of two people controlling one body is quite amazing.

"Old Black Egg, you've lost this time. Now I have the Light attribute, let's see where you can run!" The voice came from Xu Jiawei's mouth, but the tone was that of Mushroom God.

Xu Jiawei raised her hand and unleashed a skill she had no idea how to use. Then, the Mushroom God said to her internally, "What are you standing there for? Hurry up and finish off this old black egg!"

The sound came directly from my brain, which was quite amazing.

Xu Jiawei immediately raised her hand and released Photon Meteor, her strongest skill.

In an instant, more than a dozen photon meteors were created. Of course, this was with the help of the Mushroom God. If she hadn't created so many on her own, she wouldn't have been able to. The intensity of the light bullets was much stronger. In just a moment, they hit the Dark God's clone. Before the clone could even react, it was engulfed by the pale golden flames.

The God of Darkness also discovered that this flame was completely different from the God of Light's Light Sacrifice. Xu Jiawei's skill was very troublesome, and the flame could not be extinguished at all. Especially now that Xu Jiawei had the power of a god, her strength was even comparable to that of the God of Light.

Xu Jiawei gasped. When did she become so strong? Is this the power of a god?

Is this really her skill? It's too strong, too strong.

He then immediately began testing other skills, starting with Light Spores and Parasitic Spores. The spores seemed to have their own consciousness, rapidly drifting towards the clone and sticking to him relentlessly.

He unleashed over a dozen skills at once, which even the Dark God's clone couldn't withstand, losing health rapidly every second. It was even more effective than Photon Meteor. Sure enough, when fighting enemies with high health, you still need percentage-based damage skills.

What surprised Xu Jiawei even more was that her control over the parasitic spores was so strong that even the Dark God's clone couldn't escape it and was trapped in place. However, the Dark God had lived for so long and still had some control-breaking skills, so it quickly broke free from the control. Xu Jiawei was not discouraged; being able to control it for even a moment was not bad.

Xu Jiawei unleashed a skill she had never seen before. Feeling the energy fluctuations in her body, she pondered, wondering if she could learn it.

Now, Xu Jiawei was able to overpower the Dark God's clone.

"Hurry up and finish him off, the divine descent has a time limit." Mushroom God said in her mind, and Xu Jiawei immediately focused her mind and released Photon Meteor.

The flames completely engulfed the Dark God's avatar. The Dark God knew he couldn't escape. It was as if the God of Light and the Mushroom God were ganging up on him, and he was only at level 92, no match for the two of them combined.

"Consider yourselves lucky. I'll let you be smug for a while longer, then I'll be out soon." With that, his clone swelled up, and the black giant wave exploded into terrifying energy. Xu Jiawei and Mushroom God immediately used their skills to block it.

In an instant, the entire final Cataclysm source area was flattened, and even players at high-level Cataclysm sources were affected. The protective shield was immediately shattered, and many low-level players were injured. If it weren't for the base's protective shield, there would probably have been casualties.

Players without the shield were in trouble, but luckily they were high level and only lost some health, not dying.

Without exception, all the players at the very center of the explosion lost a life and were resurrected. This was only because Xu Jiawei and Mushroom God did their best to stop it; otherwise, the entire white mist area would have been reduced to ashes.

We've only been slightly affected, which is already pretty good.

Mushroom God breathed a sigh of relief; at least he could buy some more time.
