I Can Gain One Skill Point Per Second

Chapter 807: Chapter 807: There’s No Such Thing as a Free Lunch

The extraction of Source Power and the Array capable of causing large-scale destruction have been secretly set up by the Dark Star Association.

The recent position of Luojia is also personally monitored by Yan Qiushui.

Everything is ready; only the battle is yet to commence.

Rebellion is no small matter; once the bow is drawn, there is no turning back. To ensure absolute success, Yan Qiushui has gathered resources from the entire Dark Star Association, preparing a large quantity of restorative pills and one-time massive destructive weapons.

On the night before the battle, Yan Qiushui invited Lin Yi to a mountain outside the Dark Rising Headquarters.

The moon tonight is very round, but carries a faint crimson hue, as if even it senses the impending storm of blood.

“Lin Yi, my dear brother, is there anything you desire?”

“If it’s something I can give, tonight I’ll give it all to you. From tomorrow, whether we live or die depends on our strength.”

Saying this, Yan Qiushui swept a stray hair behind her ear, feigning a seductive posture, leaving uncertain whether what she meant was a thing, or a person.

Lin Yi looked at the beautiful woman in front of him, feeling little disturbance in his heart.

Beauty, Lin Yi has seen so many. To think she could tie Lin Yi to her side with such a ploy, the means are rather clumsy. Doesn’t she realize her age?

Even though Yan Qiushui appears youthful due to her immense power, her actual age is nearly a century.

If Lin Yi couldn’t resist the temptation of a centenarian, wouldn’t that be too abstract?

“Why, Miss Yan, are you so lacking in confidence against Luojia? His strength is only slightly superior to yours. If we both strike together, it shouldn’t be too difficult to deal with him in a short time.”

“As for what I want, it’s just Source Power. If the Source Power obtained after the battle can elevate my strength to the desired level, I’ll be very pleased.”

“Miss Yan, is this truly all you wished to discuss by inviting me here today?”

Yan Qiushui smiled sweetly and said:

Of course, I’m also concerned you might regret at the last moment. If you have any hesitation about partnering with me on major events, feel free to voice them. I’d understand after all, as you’re crucial in defeating Luojia — if your determination wavers, the lives in the Dark Rising Association will be lost alongside.

Lin Yi immediately expressed his unwavering determination, giving Yan Qiushui a definite answer.

But Lin Yi himself could surely discern that Yan Qiushui reaching out to him wasn’t merely to talk about determination. He guessed the unsaid intentions of this woman in general, acknowledging her considerable ambition.

The next day’s sun rose quickly.

As warm sunlight bathed the Bisite Planet, the people of Bisite were yet unaware that this planet was nearing its end.

The ordinary martial artists, having risen early, were diligently preparing to enhance their strength when explosive news rapidly spread:

Yan Qiushui, the second strongest powerhouse on Bisite Planet, issued an open distribution of precious cultivation resources to help Bisite quickly boost its strength.

Simply by reaching Yan Qiushui’s newly created Dark Rising Association, one could obtain cultivation resources for free.

For martial artists, enhancing their strength stands as the utmost priority.

The cultivation resources capable of strengthening them are objects of obsession.

Given Yan Qiushui’s decent reputation and attractive appearance, martial artists rushed towards the Dark Rising Headquarters without much thought.

The first to arrive at the Dark Rising Headquarters upon seeing the announcement was a young girl at the eighth level of martial arts.

Upon reading the notice, the girl immediately dashed towards the indicated location.

Sure enough, she found numerous powerful martial artists at the Martial Arts Perfection Realm busy within the Dark Rising Headquarters.

“Um, excuse me, are you guys from the Dark Rising Organization? I came after reading the announcement to claim some cultivation resources, what good things can I get?”

Meeting the young girl was a middle-aged man with an elegant demeanor.

He wore a gentle smile, appearing very pleasant.

“Yes, we are from the Dark Rising Organization, and indeed, our organization has resources available. As the first arrival at our Dark Rising Headquarters, you deserve special treatment. Come, let me take you to our resource warehouse and you can choose anything you see. I’ll let you pick five items, how about that!”

Five items?!

The young girl’s eyes lit up upon hearing this, immediately following the middle-aged man into the Dark Rising Organization’s storeroom.

Sure enough, it was filled with an array of cultivation materials.

There were precious herbs, high-grade weapons, rare Battle Pet eggs, most of which were high-grade, as well as substantial wealth and various rare minerals.

The sight left the girl dazzled.

“So, do you like it?”

“Are you satisfied with the items?”

The naive girl didn’t notice the sinister expression flickering on the middle-aged man’s face.

“As the first lucky one, you have priority to choose, and can select five treasures. With such luck, why not take a photo and share it on social media to spread the word?”

This suggestion the young girl naturally wouldn’t refuse, and she swiftly took a pretty selfie along with the enviable rare resources she selected.

As she viewed the envious comments from friends, a sudden chill swept across her neck.

Soon, a warm stream flowed from her neck to her chest.

Along with dizziness and increasingly labored breathing, searing pain brought extreme discomfort to the young girl.

Her eyes filled with disbelief; how could she have imagined that what awaited her was not opulent fortune but fatal calamity?

Fortune grows from calamity; calamity lurks in fortune.

The girl, bereft of strength, collapsed onto the ground, convulsing a few times before life fully ebbed away.

“Source Power, it’s here.”

The middle-aged man adjusted his glasses, turned, and walked away, not bothering to tidy the scene.

However, just as the man turned and stepped aside, the girl’s body began to shimmer in a faint, red glow.

The glow continuously swirled, forming a flickering Array beneath the girl’s body.

The Array rotated, absorbing the crimson flowing from the girl, not just blood but even flesh and bones, transforming into the purest Source Power, leaving no trace.

This was one of the prearranged measures by the Dark Star Association.

As long as martial artists dared to come, they’d be transformed into resources for the Dark Star Organization.

The second, the third…

Countless Bisite Planet dwellers were lured over, the girl’s post flaunting her acquisition of rare resources became viral across the internet, yet nobody noticed that the lucky recipients of resources never replied to their social app posts.

They were neither aloof nor too busy — they simply had no privilege to behold this world again.
