Survival at Sea: I Became Number One by Growing Mushrooms

Xu Jiawei asked curiously, "Rainbow, what did the red earthworm say?"

Rainbow tilted her head again and said, "Master, the red earthworm wants that cool box and that stone."

Xu Jiawei turned her gaze to the red earthworm. "Now, what do you need that for?"

The red earthworm chattered on and on, but Xu Jiawei didn't understand. Finally, the red earthworm directly conveyed its message: "Purify."

Xu Jiawei's lips twitched. It really couldn't forget at all, so she said to Rainbow, "Rainbow, take out the box."

The red earthworm then became more obedient. It hugged the box and stood opposite Xu Jiawei. Xu Jiawei mobilized the magic power in her body and activated the Light Purification to its maximum, focusing the main purification power on the red earthworm in front of her. The Light Purification in other directions was not as strong, but it was still somewhat useful.

Little Pink and Rainbow sat to the side, enjoying the baptism of the lingering power of the light purification. The light aura on Little Pink's body resonated faintly with the aura on Xu Jiawei's body, making the light aura on Xu Jiawei's body even stronger and faintly generating energy resonance.

It seemed as if they had fallen into a special state. As Xu Jiawei and Xiao Fen's energies resonated, Xu Jiawei's aura gradually resonated with Rainbow's restorative abilities. With Xu Jiawei as the transit point, the energies of the three were circulating.

At this moment, the red earthworm seemed to sense this special resonance as well, and its purification speed increased. Even its aura resonated with Xu Jiawei's, which seemed to be its absorption ability.

The energy of light circulated continuously along with the auras of the four, purifying and cleansing them. After the energy of light circulated, it returned to Xu Jiawei's body along with the unique aura of the pet, the temperature of Little Pink, the recovery of Rainbow, and the absorption ability of the Red Earthworm, turning into a virtuous cycle.

Guided by this state, Xu Jiawei once again entered the state she had when fighting the Dark God's clone.

She glanced at her own body, as well as the bodies of the rainbow, the red earthworm, and the little pink one, all of which were composed of different points of light. For example, the rainbow was colorful, the little pink one was pink and white, and the red earthworm was green and ice blue.

Xu Jiawei scanned herself, noting that she was rainbow-colored and white, but deep within the white was a faint black mist. Was this the residue of pollution?

She thought she was free from pollution, but to her surprise, there were still some residues, like stubborn stains that could not be removed. However, as the energy of light circulated among them, these pollutants were gradually washed away and became lighter and lighter.

It seems that even light-attribute substances can leave behind pollution residue. Xu Jiawei then turned her attention to Rainbow and the others. Similarly, even though Xu Jiawei tried her best to purify them, there were still some pollution residues deep within them that could not be purified.

Xu Jiawei felt that leaving these things in her body would cause trouble. Although they didn't affect them now, the Dark God might do something with the pollutant residue, so it was better to remove them completely.

The energy of light circulated rapidly among them, centered on Xu Jiawei as the connection point. Their pollution was completely removed, and as the last bit of darkness disappeared, the light attribute seemed to undergo a qualitative change, radiating a dazzling light and returning to Xu Jiawei's body.

[Ding! Congratulations, player, you've entered a special state and your talent has evolved. (You got incredibly lucky!)]

[Ding! System assessment indicates the player's current strength is sufficient for survival on this island. Mushroom Ring access is now disabled.]

Xu Jiawei had barely opened her eyes when she heard this devastating news. Good heavens, how unwilling must the system be to let her use its resources? She'd barely gained a little strength, and it immediately shut her down. Who could be more ruthless than this dog? It's too much!

Not knowing exactly what her talent had improved, Xu Jiawei opened the panel for her talent section to check. The system had simply turned off the cheat code for her.

[Talent: Mushroom and God of Light [Evolved] (SS level can evolve; players can explore on their own)]

1. You are the successor of the Mushroom and the God of Light, possessing unparalleled affinity for both attributes and capable of unleashing god-level power. You are light, and light is you; you are mushroom, and mushroom is you.

2. Mushrooms can be cultivated anywhere, anywhere; the entire world can be your petri dish. (You can even try growing them in the air.)

3. Since the player is in a mushroom poisoning state, entering the game grants poison immunity and a demonic recovery effect.

4. Players can combine different items with mushrooms to cultivate new varieties based on their strong desires.

5. The God of Light possesses the power to purify all things, and players will gain advanced immunity to negative status effects and resistance to demonic transformation.

6. You are a child blessed by light, surrounded by light, and will be immune to any form of curse.

6. Rapid recovery: No matter the type of injury, as long as the person is not dead, they will recover quickly.

Additional: Light Purification is converted into a passive skill. Gain the skills Light God and Demonic Transformation. All attributes increase by +200, and Mushroom and Light attribute skills receive a 10% bonus.

Looking at her panel, Xu Jiawei immediately understood why the system said she could adapt to the difficulty here: because she had demonic resistance and demonic recovery effects.

One effect is derived from the Light attribute, and the other is derived from the Mushroom attribute. One provides resistance while the other provides healing, which can greatly enhance one's survivability.

As for the new skill, judging from the name, it seemed to have the same effect. She wasn't sure if her guess was right, so she opened the skill description.

[Demonic Transformation: Passive skill. Can absorb dark energy and convert it into light attribute, converting 1 point per second, with a storage limit of 1000. Can be re-stored after being depleted. (Upgradeable.)]

This skill is specifically designed for the demonized state, and it's a lifesaver. Although it's not very powerful at first, once the skill is upgraded, any attacks from enemies will be directly converted and absorbed into light attribute attacks, increasing the attack power of the light attribute.

It's almost like a counterattack.

Moreover, this thing can be stored. It can slowly accumulate by relying on air pollution, and then release it all at once, reducing the health by 1000 points. Even bishops would not be able to withstand that.

If they fell into the Dark God's trap again, Xu Jiawei thought that she probably still couldn't solve the problem, but she could hold out a little longer.

After all, that trap was too insidious, but if she were to go into the trap now, she would have a certain ability to resist, and might actually be able to get out.

After the purification was complete, Rainbow, Pink, and Red Earthworm felt a refreshing sensation they had never experienced before, as if their entire bodies were clear and transparent.

Xu Jiawei felt much more refreshed; the pollution had indeed been completely purified, and she felt much better.

After that, her purification ability became stronger, so even if she couldn't enter that state, there shouldn't be any residual pollution.
