But what followed in her heart was wild joy! The ecstasy of reclaiming her body!

Without a moment's hesitation, Bai Wanxi rushed straight towards the Li Family!

She needed to... seek help from Li Shiquan!

An external demon! Among the external demons! A monster has arrived!!!

How fast was Bai Wanxi running at full speed?

Passersby suddenly burst into chunks of flesh, yet others still didn't understand what had happened.

Bai Wanxi had already exercised restraint, otherwise, the number of human fragments would have been far greater.

Before the chaos could spread, Bai Wanxi was already at the Li Family's doorstep.

Coincidentally, a carriage was parked at the entrance of the Li Family.

Li Shiquan was just about to step into the carriage, as if he had some affair to attend to.

It's Li Shiquan! It's the Shu Bird Demon!

Quickly! Quickly gather... gather... gather...

Bai Wanxi's eyes widened, mouth agape.

Because she realized.

The sound, once again, couldn't come out.

Panic washed over her like a tidal wave.

The extreme ecstasy of near salvation, in that moment, turned into boundless despair.

She once again lost ownership of her body.

"Where did this little girl come from? Move aside, move aside! Don't block the path of my young master!"

The Li Family's servant was about to drive away Bai Wanxi, just as Li Shiquan noticed her presence.

A puzzled look cast in her direction was met with Bai Wanxi's faint smile.

Before Li Shiquan could figure out her purpose, Bai Wanxi had already turned and left.

...

Heavenly Square Inn.

An invisible presence cackled.

"One flesh, two hearts."

"The Buddha Finger, quite magical, isn't it?"

Yet around the voice, though the hall was bustling with guests, no one heard this sound!

...

Diao Residence.

Fang Yu opened his eyes.

Looked at the system prompt.

[System Prompt: Congratulations to the player for consuming [Ten Thousand Blood Ginseng], Physique +0, Spirit +10.]

[System Prompt: Congratulations to the player for consuming [Ten Thousand Blood Ginseng], gaining 5000 Experience Points.]

[System Prompt: Congratulations to the player for consuming [Ten Thousand Blood Ginseng], blood density doubling, about to commence blood concentration.]

[System Prompt: Congratulations to the player for consuming [Ten Thousand Blood Ginseng], reacted with the [Green Demon Blood] within the demon bloodline, bloodline purification in progress... purification failed. [Ten Thousand Blood Ginseng] energy disperses throughout the body, gaining an additional 1000 Experience Points.]

[System Prompt: Experience Points over 100, converted into a total of 60 attribute points.]

[System Prompt: [Demonization] progress reduced by 10%.]

Last night, after consuming [Ten Thousand Blood Ginseng], he noticed his blood boiling fiercely.

As if the increased blood density induced some bodily reaction, which only gradually calmed down now.

Upon re-sensing his body, everything seemed at ease.

Blood density doubled, could it mean an increase in total blood volume?

Fang Yu didn't quite understand, but with a thought, the flow speed of his blood increased, and it carried a tangible quality when moving.

Using the nail of his left hand, he made a cut on the palm of his right hand, then flicked it outwards.

Hiss!!

A one-meter-long ice blood spike extended from his palm to the wall, piercing through!

As he clenched his hand, ice shards scattered to the ground.

The power of Ice Blood Storm seemed to have increased substantially.

Perhaps, has the effect of Three Thousand Wood-Blood Jutsu also improved?

Indeed, as something related to blood, [Ten Thousand Blood Ginseng] enhanced abilities quite tangibly.

Just a bit slow to digest, even with my data-based body, it took an entire night for my body to adapt.

With attribute points increased again, Fang Yu decisively began to allocate them.

[Attribute Points: 166→136.]

[Primordial Heart Guard Bone [Tree Level Initial Stage / Gradually Entering the Best State] → Primordial Heart Guard Bone [Tree Level Middle Stage / Initial Understanding].]

Perfect!

Conquered another Martial Art.

Now, just two more Martial Arts need to meet the standard to elevate the realm!

Add to this...

[Attribute Points: 136→120.]

[Qi Gathering Technique [Tree Level Initial Stage / Attaining Transformation Realm] → Qi Gathering Technique [Tree Level Middle Stage / Initial Understanding].]

[Qi] total volume increased once more!

As if a new path opened, Avi gave him more choices in Qi arrangement.

At this moment, Fang Yu faintly felt that he could already simulate [Qi Explosion Sky Swirl].

But now is not the time to study it.

Last one, charge!

[Attribute Points: 120→76.]

[Yuan Body Hammer Head [Tree Level Initial Stage / Initial Understanding] → Yuan Body Hammer Head [Tree Level Middle Stage / Initial Understanding.]

Tree Realm Middle Stage! Here I come!!

[System Prompt]

[System Prompt: Detected the player meets the promotion standards, about to break through.]

[System Prompt: Congratulations to the player for breaking the shackle, advancing to Tree Realm Middle Stage, Physique +15, Spirit +15.]

[Physique: 200→215.]

[Spirit: 96.7→112.2.]

[System Prompt: [Demonization] progress decreased by 15%.]

[Life: 39492/39492.]

[Demonization: 5%.]

Tree Level Middle Stage, breakthrough!

"Hoo——"

Fang Yu let out a long breath.

Feeling at this moment, his spirit, energy, and essence received a complete uplift.

His whole being seemed considerably refreshed.

I've broken through!

Now, I am also a Martial Artist at Tree Realm Middle Stage!

According to the Martial Arts realms once mentioned by Li Baizhen, on the long journey of Martial Arts, he had already traversed more than half.

Looking at the remaining attribute points, Fang Yu's choice is...

[Attribute Points: 76→25.]

[Primordial Body Double Zero Sword [Tree Level Initial Stage / Initial Understanding] → Primordial Body Double Zero Sword [Tree Level Middle Stage / Initial Understanding.]

All the partners have reached Tree Realm Middle Stage, you mustn't fall behind, Primordial Body Double Zero Sword.

When all Primordial Body Techniques are elevated to the same height without weaknesses, only then the true significant effect appears, otherwise, there's still some impact.

With the realm breakthrough and cultivation technique improvement, Fang Yu felt his power had skyrocketed within a night.

Thus, even if taking on outdoor tasks given by the Hall Master, I'll have a bit of self-preservation now!

Cre-eak.

At that moment, the door was suddenly pushed open.

Fang Yu was startled, then saw Ding Hui, with dark circles under her eyes and unsteady steps, swaying towards him in three strides.

"Ding, Ding Hui?!"

Fang Yu quickly went up to support her, fearing she would fall and not get up.

"It's just work, no need to push yourself so hard, right? Why don't you apply to the Hall Master for a few days' rest? Our Foolish Underworld isn't lacking Divine Doctors."

Ding Hui glanced at him, retrieved something from her bosom, and placed it in his hand.

Then, with a turn of her head, she began to snore heavily, producing a loud snoring sound on the spot.

Fang Yu: ...

Goodness, is this terrifying? Your ability to fall asleep surpasses my ability to log out!

At least logging out requires a moment of silent meditation, you just turn your head and sleep.

Glancing at the item in his hand, Fang Yu recognized it at first glance.

Demon Transformation Pill.

During the last Lin Family battle, Fang Yu had already used that Demon Transformation Pill. Yet, Ding Hui held it in her heart and despite being as busy as a dog, she took time to refine another pill for me.

Fang Yu looked at the peacefully sleeping Ding Hui, and his gaze softened significantly.

Gently placing her on the bed and tucking her in, Fang Yu quietly retreated.

Outside, the day was already bright, the morning had long arrived.

Fang Yu squinted slightly, pondering over the olive branch extended by Hei Ao and Zuo Lv last night.

They, too, wished to venture outdoors, seemingly preparing to vie for some [Artifact].

Could it be the same as my mission?

An inkling of worry crept into Fang Yu's heart; regarding their invitation, Fang Yu naturally declined.

He planned to first see how things stood on the Hall Master's side before making a decision.

Since he didn't agree to venture out, they didn't reveal more information, only saying that once they returned, they would far surpass Fang Yu, leaving him filled with regret.

However...

Fang Yu glanced at his health bar and realm.

When you two advance to the Tree Realm, then talk big.

Ultimately, the speed of local NPCs' strength development can't compare with that of players like me.

With Shen Lan's added points, everything can be surpassed.

Our upgrade speed isn't even in the same version.

"Captain Diao, the Hall Master requests your presence."

Just as he was pondering what to do today, news came from outside.
