I Stack Attributes in the Apocalypse C356 – Chapter 356: Harvest Time

Chapter 356: Harvest Time

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

In the Black Mist Zone, the Source Power system was undoubtedly the mainstream.

Even the experts specializing in blood patterns would have some golden and silver patterns on their bodies, not to mention trying to cultivate blood patterns. They would also cultivate the body forging technique under the Source Power system.

Even to achieve the status of a divine supreme being, one must have cultivated Source Power—there has never been a record of any exotic species reaching the pinnacle and becoming a deity without Source Power cultivation.

Universal, simple, high upper limit, and a perfect system.

There was no other extraordinary system that could compete with the Source Power system.

But at this moment, Lu Ming could not help but sigh with emotion about a version update.

This was because it was obvious that these anomalies were born to hunt transcendents of the Source Power system!

Any source power transcendent facing them in the black mist could only be as defenseless as the quasi-god from earlier, completely wiped out.

Moreover, these anomalies not only consumed the Source Power on the bodies of transcendents but also the Divine Source of the Divine Spirit Realm experts.

They also consumed the freely floating Source Power in the air and the Source Power stored in objects.

It could be said that they could change the Source Power environment and turn the places they passed into Source Power desert.

Without Source Power, the foundation of the Source Power transcendent system would be gone—everything from Source Power techniques to Body Forging techniques, and even the mortal bodies, would all be swept into the trash.

Fortunately, Lu Ming possessed the Force system, allowing him to obtain some insignificant sense of security in such an environment.

“In short, the version has indeed been updated.”

“And now I'm dealing with a lot of problems.”

After some thought, Lu Ming made a decision.

“I have to prioritize. The first thing 1 have to do now is to find a way to conceal the Source Power fluctuations between me and Boshi Tower.”

“And get the hell out of here as much as I can.”

Dawn Province was located in the hinterland of the Eternal Clan, adjacent to Guitan Province.

Guitan Province was the province where Xuanshui City was located.

Standing at the border between Dawn Province and Guitan Province, Jiu Han looked at the black mist rolling over in the distance with a deep gaze and a calm expression.

Calm, but not peaceful.

After all, his hometown, his academy, and his two disciples were all trapped in this ghostly mist. How could he remain calm?

Inhale, exhale.

As if trying to exhale all the suffocation from his heart.

It was not until he took a few deep breaths that Jiu Han turned his head to look at the other person beside him.

That was also his disciple.

The Vice Sect Master of the Hundred Schools of Philosophy, Xiang Yi.

Xiang Yi was not a member of the Eternal Clan but rather a member of the Jin Clan.

The characteristics of the Jin Clan were golden skin and golden eyes.

From his appearance, Xiang Yi was in his prime, with rugged features and strong muscles, giving the first impression that he was not a teacher but rather like a martial arts practitioner.

When he noticed Jiu Han's gaze sweep over, Xiang Yi said in a deep voice, “Teacher, please think twice.”

It had been a few hours since the black mist appeared.

This thing spread very quickly. At the moment, it had already covered the entire Guitan Province and was still continuing to spread outward.

According to sporadic information from within the black mist, Jiu Han and Xiang Yi already knew how terrifying it was within the black mist.

At this moment, Jiu Han wanted to barge into the black mist to save people, and Xiang Yi obviously would not just watch Jiu Han go in and get himself killed.

The two of them stood deadlocked at the border of the black mist.

Until a leisurely voice came from behind.

“If it were me, I wouldn't get too close to the Black Mist Zone.”

“After all, the spread speed of this thing is irregular. It might stay still for a short time, or it might spread out several hundred miles in an instant.”

“If you accidentally get swallowed by the Black Mist Zone, it will be difficult to come out again.”

His voice made Jiu Han and Xiang Yi turn around.

At some point in time, a figure had evaded their perception and silently appeared behind them.

An enemy, and an acquaintance at that.

The Corpse God, Zero.

The young bespectacled man who appeared in front of them was one of the main clones of the Corpse God. Jiu Han had fought this clone before and knew that Zero's clone could temporarily unleash the power of the clan guardian god.

However, Jiu Han was not afraid, and his strength was probably at the same level.

Frowning, Jiu Han asked, “What are you doing here?”

The Corpse God stood with his hands behind his back and looked at the rolling black mist in the distance. He said leisurely, “To see the achievements of our subversives.”

With that said, he pointed to the black mist.

“Look, isn't this scenery beautiful?”

A flash of killing intent crossed Jiu Han's eyes.

He said indifferently, “If you're trying to deliberately provoke me… 1 really don't know if you're underestimating me, or if I'm overestimating you.”

The Corpse God smiled faintly, “I'm not deliberately provoking you. 1 just really think that the scenery in front of me is breathtaking.”

Having said this, before Jiu Han could speak, the Corpse God gently adjusted his glasses and continued, “It's a pity that this beautiful scenery can't be seen often. According to the regular pattern, it will take more than three hundred generations of tribulation bearers for the Black Mist Zone to officially enter the harvest period. What we subversives have done is simply to bring this deadline forward.”

“So, think about it. From the first generation of tribulation bearers in the Black Mist Zone until now, there have been more than 90,000 generations of tribulation bearers. It took such a long time to wait for the harvest period… This is a rare scene in ten thousand generations! If we look at the current scenery with an appreciative eye, it is more magnificent than any wonders inside the Black Mist Zone!”

The Corpse God's tone became more and more excited.

It was not until he finished speaking that he took a deep breath and briefly calmed his emotions.

He turned to look at Jiu Han and saw Jiu Han squinting at him, observing him seriously.

Jiu Han remained silent.

He just stared at Zero.

This made Zero shrug and say helplessly, “According to the process, you should ask me what the harvest period is and why there's a harvest period…”

“No, I don't want to know.” Jiu Han simply said, “Although I'm curious, I really don't want to know what the harvest period is. I think the so-called harvest period you're talking about is probably the root cause of your war with the Eternal Clan.”

Zero nodded, “That's right.”

Jiu Han continued, “The background is very complicated and difficult to figure out in this matter, such that I don't want to get involved at all. The only thing 1 care about now is my two disciples.”

“If you have a way to rescue my two disciples, I can agree not to participate in the future battles… This promise can even be extended to the entire Hundred Schools of Philosophy.”

On the side, Xiang Yi opened his mouth, but ultimately did not say anything.

Although the Teacher's commitment had the suspicion of betraying the clan, the truth was as the Teacher had said.

This battle was fought in a confusing manner, and lasted until now, even Xiang Yi was tired of fighting.

He did not know why he was fighting and did not know the root cause of the battle. He had asked several times, but his superiors had brushed him off. Under such circumstances, it would be strange if he still had the will to fight…

Hearing Jiu Han's words, Zero thought for a moment and smiled, “Although you didn't follow the script, the result is indeed not deviating.”

“However, 1 don't need you to refrain from participating in the battle. What 1 need is for you to stand on our side.”

“Of course, I don't need you to go against your clansmen… 1 just need your knowledge of array formations.”

“Help me complete an array formation and I'll save your two disciples. How about that?”

Jiu Han pondered for a long time before nodding slowly.

“That works too.”

“But there's one more condition.”

“What condition?”

“What exactly is the harvest period you're talking about?”

Zero immediately burst into laughter.

“Jiu Han, 1 have to admit that I kind of like you..”
