Reincarnation Paradise Park

Chapter 975: Chapter 63: Steady Accumulation, Sudden Breakthrough

Bang!

One shot, the bullet flew past Yulu’s ear at high speed, its target a headshot, but Yulu’s flying speed was too fast.

While dodging this shot, a few Alchemy Ravens caught up to Yulu, white feathers shot urgently, piercing those Alchemy Ravens, causing them to fall to the ground below.

Bang!

The second shot, Su Xiao’s shooting sensation was getting better.

Swoosh～

The bullet flew almost grazing Yulu’s body, the powerful impact airflow causing his flying trajectory to skew, a large flock of Alchemy Ravens swooped in.

”Yulu, surrender!!”

Some female spectators could no longer bear to watch, as their idol was being mercilessly hunted down.

Bang!

The third shot, the bullet fired out of the chamber.

With a crack, a burst of blood mist exploded in the sky, a piece of Yulu’s wing shattered, and he, like a bird with broken wings, slanted down from the air.

Bang, bang, bang.

After a precise three-shot burst, three clouds of blood mist exploded at different heights.

With a thud, a half-mangled corpse hit the ground.

Su Xiao pulled the bolt, the gunpowder wafting, a bullet flew out from the chamber, he caught the flying bullet, and turned to walk towards the audience seating.

”What, 1 minute and 20 seconds into the match, the seed contestant Yulu was killed?!”

Hak shouted exaggeratedly, and in the audience, all the male spectators beside their female companions secretly rejoiced at Yulu’s tragic death.

After Su Xiao returned to the contestants’ seating, he headed continuously towards the direction of the rest area.

Inside the rest area, Lilymu, who had been waiting for a long time, immediately activated the teleportation formation, knowing Su Xiao’s time was tight.

As the teleportation formation activated, a female mage with a hood in the audience smirked.

”You’ve given me a chance.”

The female mage vanished into thin air.

...

In the Lost Fire Forest.

”Ugh～”

Lilymu looked full of despair, holding onto a tree and retching.

”If you can’t quickly master Alchemic Biology Manufacturing, I’ll fight it out with you.”

Lilymu panted heavily, wishing to stuff Su Xiao into the teleportation formation, and overload it.

”...”

Su Xiao said nothing, just signaled Lilymu to hurry up.

”I’m fine now...”

Suddenly, Lilymu’s expression changed, her gaze turned to the right.

A magic array suddenly appeared, this array was extremely large, rich space-time power surged.

Soon, the array ceased to operate, a slender arm extended out, and Mage Sage Sefiria emerged, having tracked the spatial fluctuation to this point.

”Blaze.”

Mage Sage Sefiria said nothing, fiery red light flickering in her hand, seemingly aware it wasn’t suitable to linger here.

At this moment, Su Xiao’s whole body bristled with tension, needing no words to understand this was an enemy of the Shadow of Annihilation Law, likely one of those ancient undying ones.

”Seraphilia, it’s very impolite to intrude into someone else’s territory without permission.”

An aged voice reached them, a number of Tree Men staring at Mage Sage Sefiria. 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ

”Tree Sage.”

The light in Seraphilia’s hand faded, her gaze turned to Su Xiao. Within the Alchemy Defense Restriction of the Tree Sage, even she dared not act recklessly, just as others would not dare cause trouble within her Magic Tower. In the Lost Fire Forest, the Tree Sage’s power was at least several times its usual strength.

If the battle were elsewhere, Mage Sage Sefiria’s and Tree Sage’s strengths would be similar. In a life-or-death fight, Sefiria would have a higher chance of winning; she is a battle sequence mage, while the Tree Sage is an alchemist.

However, in the Tree Sage’s territory, she would be lucky just to escape.

”Perhaps this is fate. In destiny, you won’t die here today, Annihilator. I am Sefiria, a Fire Element Mage whose home was destroyed by the Shadow of Annihilation Law, leaving me nowhere to go. We personally have no vendetta, but from the moment you became an Annihilator, you became my must-kill target. Kill me, or be killed by me.”

Mage Sage Sefiria’s face was like frost, yet in those eyes, there was nothing but loneliness and sorrow.

The magic array glowed, and Sefiria stepped into it. She indeed holds a deadly grudge against the Shadow of Annihilation Law, but she wouldn’t sacrifice herself here to kill Su Xiao because there’s another Annihilator in the Void who hasn’t died and is far too strong; her power isn’t enough to kill that one.

Madwoman, they call Sefiria in the Void; she once ambushed the Demon Blade twice—once almost losing her life, the other time skinned and thrown into the Black Abyss.

After Sefiria left, Su Xiao’s expression was less than pleased; he almost perished just now, giving him a new understanding of the Void’s dangerousness.

He must leave the Void quickly. Until his strength reaches a certain level, he won’t come here without absolute necessity; it’s too easy to become collateral damage. Better to enhance his power in the Derivative World.

”Let’s go.”

Su Xiao headed toward the tree house room.

”You almost died just now. How calm.”

Lilymu let out a long breath; she wasn’t a match for Sefiria.

”The result is that I didn’t die; that’s an opportunity.”

”Strange thinking.”

The two headed into the tree house. Inside, the Tree Sage was nowhere to be seen, probably engaged in negotiations with Sefiria, as neither bore grudges against the other beforehand.

Su Xiao now didn’t want to waste a second. He dove into the Alchemy Lab, producing a batch of Alchemy Ravens.

He had temporarily changed his mind; this would be his last visit here. The Alchemic Biology Manufacturing studies wouldn’t be advanced immediately. Producing new alchemical creatures would slow his production speed; what he needed now was unceasing production of Alchemy Ravens, accumulating proficiency in biological manufacturing. At this point, proficiency had reached: 901/10, enough to upgrade biological manufacturing significantly.

Half an hour later, the Tree Sage returned to the tree house, seemingly having completed negotiations with Sefiria, the results unknown.

For nine hours, Su Xiao tirelessly crafted Alchemy Ravens, with his biological manufacturing proficiency reaching 1876/10.

Based on experience from ’Alchemy Bomb Production’ and ’Alchemy Potion Production’, this proficiency was enough to upgrade biological manufacturing to Level 20.

He had hoped to exceed Level 20’s limits with the Tree Sage’s guidance, yet after Sefiria disrupted events, that was nearly impossible. He must leave now; the Tree Sage’s disposition was undetermined. Who knows which side he stood on, or perhaps he remained neutral, offending none.

The Tree Sage’s unclear stance made remaining in the tree house unwise. While achieving full mastery in alchemy here and crafting a high-level alchemical creature would be ideal, idealism often conceals peril.

Alchemy could be perfected later. As for constructing stronger alchemical creatures, they can be made within Reincarnation Paradise, costing merely Paradise coins; no need to gamble life here.

Though achieving the ideal outcome was unattainable, the gains were considerable. Greed is natural, but must be limited.

Su Xiao’s next move was to patiently stay within the Void Colosseum until finishing the competition and returning to Reincarnation Paradise; once back, Sefiria could only look on powerlessly.

A visibly weary Su Xiao emerged from the Alchemy Lab.

”I’m done.”

”Really?”

Lilymu was delighted; she dreaded more long-distance teleportations.

”Yes.”

Su Xiao stored a vast number of Alchemy Ravens within his storage space, uncertain whether these birds could be brought into Reincarnation Paradise, given their status as unsanctioned items. If they could, it would mean fortune—selling them at the trading market.

This time, Su Xiao and Lilymu left the Book House, surprisingly with the Tree Sage personally ’escorting’ them, or rather, sending away a certain Plague God.

Su Xiao stood on the teleportation formation, eyes fixed on the Tree Sage.

”Tree Sage, thank you for your generosity. Perhaps we’ll meet again.”

Su Xiao’s words sounded friendly, yet the Tree Sage couldn’t shake an uneasy feeling. For some reason, an image of Su Xiao smilingly asking for alchemical guidance pops into his head.

”If you manage to grow, we won’t meet again, certainly not.”

The Tree Sage waved his hand, sending Su Xiao and Lilymu away.

Su Xiao returned to the Void Colosseum’s rest area, where results for the second round of the competition were already in, with 22 contestants remaining.

”Ugh~”

Lilymu pushed open the door, this demoness almost retching with tears in her eyes, yearning only to return home and settle scores with her brother.

Having wrapped up the alchemy matters, Su Xiao felt notably relieved. The Void Colosseum should conclude soon; as fewer contestants remain, battle frequency will intensify. The upcoming matches will test endurance; with 22 participants, a victor could be decided within a day.

As thoughts drifted to returning to Reincarnation Paradise, Su Xiao smiled. Completing the fifth round of the Demon Castle game would earn him Proof of The Strong, allowing a breakthrough in overcoming the 80-point attribute barrier. The 80-point attribute reward had long been coveted; it marked an opportunity to soar, intensifying strength drastically. Developing four attributes simultaneously, a strategy of accumulated efforts, was soon ripe for reaping.
