Mana Revival: Starting by Sacrificing the Campus Belle!

Chapter 78: Chapter 69: Attract the Deities’ Attention with My Own Abilities?

On the plains.

Fang Xiu ran, fast.

Kajimi followed close behind him.

An expression of pure fury was etched on Fang Xiu’s face.

He didn’t know why he was so enraged.

Perhaps it was for those three, who had people they cared about.

Perhaps it was for the three who had gone from fearing him to treating him as a friend.

Perhaps it was because they were three of the few friends he had finally made in the five years since he’d crossed over.

In any case... Fang Xiu was furious.

Right now, he just wanted to find the Linglan Giant Flame Tiger, hack off one of its legs, slice its body in half, then twist off its head to have it mounted as a decoration for his home.

”Master, that way.”

Kajimi pointed out the direction.

Fang Xiu didn’t respond. He just sprinted straight in the direction Kajimi indicated.

He didn’t ask Kajimi to fly him there, nor did he ask her to rush ahead and kill it for him.

A Level 35 Linglan Giant Flame Tiger.

It was probably the boss of this Seventh Gate World.

But Fang Xiu wasn’t afraid.

At this moment, he just wanted to charge in and beat the Linglan Giant Flame Tiger to a pulp.

With Kajimi around, Fang Xiu knew he wouldn’t be in any danger.

So he didn’t hesitate for a second.

Just then, in a rocky area not far away, Fang Xiu spotted an enormous figure.

It was a tiger with green markings on its fur.

The fur at the tip of its tail blazed like a rising flame.

This was the Level 35 Demon Beast—the Linglan Giant Flame Tiger.

”Master, this Demon Beast’s Skill is Flame. If it’s the king of this region, it might have a second or even a third Skill!”

Kajimi added a reminder, ”You must be careful, Master!”

”King? A boss?”

Fang Xiu nodded slightly.

He didn’t know if this Linglan Giant Flame Tiger was the king of this Gate World.

But he knew one thing for sure: this creature was without a doubt the one that had murdered Yuan Heng and his friends.

”ROAR!”

Just as Fang Xiu spotted the Linglan Giant Flame Tiger, it also noticed him and Kajimi.

It let out a ferocious roar at the two of them.

Instantly, the surrounding rocks began to tremble from the force of the sound.

Fang Xiu stared at the Linglan Giant Flame Tiger, unmoved.

Right now, his eyes held only killing intent, and his heart held only rage.

Yuan Heng and the others were killed here.

Grievously wounded, Yuan Heng had dragged the bodies of Lin Yan and Du Xiwei for such a long way.

Only to die in the end as well.

And the culprit behind it all was right in front of him.

Without the slightest hesitation, Fang Xiu charged forward.

”HAAH!”

Fang Xiu didn’t use [Netherworld Thunder Fall], nor did he draw his Poison Scorpion Dagger.

He simply charged straight ahead and threw a punch with his raw Power.

BAM!

A trace of disdain had originally flickered in the Linglan Giant Flame Tiger’s eyes.

After all, just half a day ago, it had killed three such humans.

And those three had been even stronger than the one before it now.

But the moment the fist made contact with the Linglan Giant Flame Tiger...

...an immense force erupted.

With a tremendous crash, the Linglan Giant Flame Tiger was sent flying backward.

CRASH! CRASH! CRASH!

It only came to a stop after smashing through several large rocks.

”ROAR!”

The Linglan Giant Flame Tiger got back to its feet and roared at Fang Xiu once more.

”This punch is for Du Xiwei!”

Fang Xiu said coolly.

Then he charged out again.

Before the Linglan Giant Flame Tiger could react, Fang Xiu threw another punch.

BAM!

The immense Power sent the Linglan Giant Flame Tiger flying once again.

”This punch is for Lin Yan!”

Fang Xiu growled again.

And rushed toward the Linglan Giant Flame Tiger.

”Master, watch out for its Flame!”

Kajimi shouted a warning just then.

Fang Xiu gave a hand signal to show he was fine.

And charged straight in.

At that exact moment, the Linglan Giant Flame Tiger’s mouth opened slightly.

A torrent of Flame immediately spewed from its maw.

It fell directly upon Fang Xiu.

After the blast of Flame subsided, a figure appeared directly in front of the Linglan Giant Flame Tiger.

”Nice Flame. Too bad I have Fire Immunity!”

Fang Xiu threw another punch, smashing it right into the tiger’s mouth.

He instantly felt something hard and unyielding break under his fist.

Fang Xiu paid it no mind, only stating coolly, ”This punch is for Yuan Heng!”

BAM!

The Linglan Giant Flame Tiger was sent flying backward yet again.

It was only then that Fang Xiu remembered.

He seemed to have acquired a Fire Immunity Passive Skill during his last Sacrifice.

He had previously guessed that the Fire Immunity might only work against certain types of Flame.

However, the Flame from this Linglan Giant Flame Tiger was clearly within the scope of his immunity.

”ROOOAR!!!”

This roar was filled with rage.

Fang Xiu saw that one of its Tiger Fangs was missing.

So the hard object he had just smashed was a Tiger Fang.

He had snapped it clean off.

’My Power... it’s actually this great?’

Fang Xiu had only known that his body had become very strong after being transformed by the Flower God’s Flower Dew.

But he never imagined it would be *this* strong.

Both his physical fortitude and the strength of his Power had taken a qualitative leap.

When his hand had smashed the Linglan Giant Flame Tiger’s fang just now, he hadn’t felt any pain.

And his Power was great enough to snap a Tiger Fang as thick as a baby’s arm.

Fang Xiu realized he had underestimated his own Power.

”Come on!”

Fang Xiu roared.

And charged straight at the Linglan Giant Flame Tiger.

”ROAR!”

The Linglan Giant Flame Tiger was not to be outdone.

It roared back as flames erupted all over its body.

”Netherworld Thunder Fall!”

Fang Xiu stopped in his tracks and used a Skill.

Instantly, countless bolts of Thunder rained down from the sky.

They struck the Linglan Giant Flame Tiger.

The Demon Beast howled in pain under the barrage.

It never expected this human to fight so dishonorably.

Before, he had always just charged in and punched it.

More than once, in fact.

This time, the Linglan Giant Flame Tiger had planned to counter with its own Power.

But it never thought the human would just use Magic instead.

’How was it supposed to fight this?’

But as the Thunder continued to roll across the sky, the Linglan Giant Flame Tiger didn’t dare to be careless.

It immediately gathered its Flame to resist.

It was a Level 35 Demon Beast, after all.

And Fang Xiu was only Level 12.

So even though [Netherworld Thunder Fall] was incredibly powerful, the Linglan Giant Flame Tiger could still hold its own against it to some extent.

’Looks like I need to focus on my Cultivation after I get out of here!’

Fang Xiu made up his mind.

’This Skill is awesome, but if the user is too weak, no matter how great the Skill is, its full potential can’t be unleashed.’

Only by increasing his own strength could Fang Xiu bring out the true power of this Skill.

”Kajimi!”

Fang Xiu shouted.

The Succubus Kajimi instantly understood his meaning.

”Chain Whip!”

”Rotating Storm!”

Kajimi let out a low cry.

Her body transformed into a whirlwind, sweeping directly toward the Linglan Giant Flame Tiger.

Countless Wind Blades sliced into the Linglan Giant Flame Tiger’s body.

The Linglan Giant Flame Tiger, which had been desperately using its Flame to block the Thunder, could now only wail in agony.

Fang Xiu was only Level 12, so he couldn’t unleash the full power of [Netherworld Thunder Fall].

But Kajimi was different.

She could bring out the full power of [Rotating Storm].

Even a Level 35 Linglan Giant Flame Tiger couldn’t withstand it.

’Kajimi is already very strong, but her Rank is only Tier One. She can still get stronger!’

Watching Kajimi use her Skill, a hint of anticipation grew in Fang Xiu’s heart.

’If I can find a way to raise Kajimi’s strength again someday, just how powerful could she become?’

Fang Xiu didn’t know, but he was determined to find a way to increase Kajimi’s strength.

’But even Kajimi doesn’t know how to improve herself, and she can’t use the Cultivation Technique I gave her. This is...’

Fang Xiu felt a little helpless.

He knew nothing about Succubi.

There were no records of them in textbooks, and even the few texts that did mention Succubi only ever talked about how powerful they were.

Humans simply didn’t understand Succubi at all.

Let alone how to raise a Succubus’s Level.

No one had ever even considered such a thing before.

’Perhaps... the Deities would know!’

Fang Xiu thought about the things he had Sacrificed to those Deities.

He had obtained Kajimi by Sacrificing Lu Yu’Er.

Fang Xiu figured that perhaps even the Evil Dragon had no interest in a Succubus, which was why it had been sealed into a Scroll.

Which then became a Contract Book.

’So, since They could seal a Succubus, maybe... They also have a way to raise a Succubus’s Rank.’

’But if I just rely on random Sacrifices and try to get a method for upgrading a Succubus by luck... that seems a bit unreliable!’

An idea began to form in Fang Xiu’s mind.

But he also felt a sense of helplessness.

Sacrifice was, by its very nature, a random affair.

The rewards one received were even more random.

To put it nicely, they were ”rewards for Sacrifice.” To put it bluntly, they were just trades, with the Deities evaluating what you Sacrificed and giving you something in return.

And the items given in these trades depended entirely on the whims of the Deities.

If all the Deities were like the Bright God, then Fang Xiu could forget about getting a method to upgrade a Succubus.

He wouldn’t even be able to get any other good items, let alone a Succubus Summoning Scroll.

”System, is there a way to communicate directly with the Deities?”

Fang Xiu could only ask the system directly.

After all, in his eyes, the system was omnipotent.

[The system can establish direct communication with the Deities, but doing so will disturb and may even anger Them, resulting in poor rewards. It is recommended that the Host rely on his own abilities to attract the Deities’ attention and have Them contact the Host directly!]

The moment Fang Xiu’s words faded, the system’s response appeared.

’Anger them? Right, being directly contacted by a mortal from a lower plane... anyone would be uncomfortable with that. It’s a loss of face!’

Fang Xiu nodded slightly in understanding.

Besides, if a mortal who was insignificant in Their eyes could directly communicate with a Deity, it might suggest he had some special means.

For such a person, one of two things could happen. It could arouse Their curiosity, prompting Them to investigate his special methods, which might lead to the discovery of the system’s existence.

The other possibility... was that it would provoke Their killing intent. It would be better to eliminate such a mortal as soon as possible.

So, Fang Xiu completely understood the system’s warning.

But that one phrase... ’rely on his own abilities to attract the Deities’ attention and have Them contact him directly...’

’How am I supposed to attract a Deity’s attention? Through Sacrifices?’

A rough idea began to take shape in Fang Xiu’s mind!
