Reincarnation Paradise

Chapter 850: Proof of the Strong

The conditions required to break through 80 attribute points are reaching Tier Three, completing a World Battle, surpassing the physical limit, and obtaining proof of the strong.

"Reaching Tier Three" and "World Battle" can be set aside temporarily. If things go smoothly, he will soon reach Tier Three, and the World Battle will have already been completed.

Regarding "surpassing the physical limit" and obtaining "proof of the strong," Suxiao was utterly clueless.

"Paradise, what does surpassing the physical limit mean?"

As Suxiao asked this, numerous prompts appeared.

"Checking Hunter's permissions...""Hunter Data Inquiry Permissions: Lv.30.""Permission granted, about to release 'surpassing the physical limit' information.""Warning: The Hunter is not allowed to disclose any information related to breaking through 80 attribute points to anyone.""'Surpassing the physical limit' refers to breaking the physical barrier and unleashing the body's full potential.""Tip: If the Hunter initiates 'surpassing the physical limit,' the Reincarnation Paradise will temporarily suppress the Hunter's attributes, reducing all attributes to 5 points and issuing a task. The suppression will disappear after completing the task.""Tip: Suppressing attributes does not mean depriving them, like sealing.""Tip: This process must be carried out in the real world, so the Hunter must be cautious.""Tip: After the Hunter applies for 'surpassing the physical limit,' the Reincarnation Paradise will appropriately increase Hunter's time in the real world."

After reading the Reincarnation Paradise's prompts, Suxiao understood that "surpassing the physical limit" meant he could apply for it upon returning to the real world. The Reincarnation Paradise would suppress his physical abilities and assign a task he would need to complete in a nearly normal human state. This task would only last a short time since Suxiao had limited time in the real world. The prompt mentioned 'appropriately increasing the Hunter's time in the real world,' which is not a significant extension.

Now that he understood "surpassing the physical limit," Suxiao continued to inquire about the "proof of the strong."

"Tip: Hunter's permissions insufficient..."

Seeing this prompt, Suxiao was almost bursting with frustration. After killing Lan Jue, he had advanced one rank in permissions, reaching Lv.30. Combining this with Hunter's permissions; he still fell short. This made Suxiao speculate that the first three points required to break the 80-point barrier might not be too difficult, but the fourth point, "proof of the strong," was the most challenging.

Obtaining this proof might be the most evident distinction between strong and weak.

Contractors who couldn't obtain this proof might reluctantly choose the "O-Type Energy Body Protein Injection" to break through the 80-point barrier.

Leaving aside the fact that using the "O-Type Injection" wouldn't grant rewards for reaching 80 points and that each attribute point would consume 9 points, it was a nightmare.

Suxiao faintly felt that after raising attributes to 80 points, the ratio of attribute points to attribute increase wouldn't remain 1:1, but it wouldn't be as exaggerated as 9:1.

He speculated that using the "proof of the strong" to break through the 80-point barrier would significantly reduce this ratio, perhaps becoming 5:1, or even 3:1 or 2:1, and a 1:1 balance wasn't impossible.

Therefore, it was imperative to find a way to obtain the "proof of the strong." However, there needed to be clues on acquiring it, not even a primary direction.

There was a hint of permission for reincarnation paradise. Finding a way to raise those permissions might lead to clues about obtaining the "proof of the strong."

However, raising the Reincarnation Paradise permissions took more work. Two known methods were increasing levels and ranks or killing Hunters from enemy paradises.

Suxiao felt that raising levels and ranks was more reliable than killing Hunters from enemy paradises. Without World Battles, he wouldn't encounter Hunters from other heavens.

In any case, it was right to first enhance his strength. If his power were sufficient, everything would be resolved.

Exiting the Attribute Enhancement Hall, Suxiao noticed that within the Reincarnation Paradise, the contractors were in a relaxed phase after the World Battle. He saw some contractors heavily drunk; alcohol was an excellent method to relax.

Returning to his exclusive room, Suxiao took a cold shower. Shirtless, he sensed a surge of power within him.

After reaching 80 points in the Stamina attribute, he felt a significant increase in his physical strength: endurance, resistance to hits, muscle density, etc.

Suxiao retrieved the "Holy Oak Branch." After using it, his maximum HP permanently increased by 15% (limited to Stamina below 80 points), leading to an MP increase of 15% (limited to MP below 3000 points) and a +20 increase in HP recovery per minute.

He had previously asked the Reincarnation Paradise whether he could use this item after reaching 80 points in Stamina. The affirmative reply stated that as long as he hadn't broken the 80-point barrier, his Stamina attribute would be calculated as 79.99, even if it showed as 80 on the data.

Suxiao's current MP was 2710 points, short of the ideal 2999 points. However, he was about to face the Tier Three trial assessment, so he needed to enhance his strength quickly. In the ruthless Reincarnation Paradise, relentlessly pursuing perfection wasn't wise; there wasn't much perfection in the world.

Suxiao proceeded towards the study in his exclusive room, which was, more accurately, an alchemy laboratory. The room was filled with various advanced experimental apparatuses and thousands of bottles and vials of different colours.

Sitting at the workbench, Suxiao wouldn't directly ingest the "Holy Oak Branch." That would be the least efficient and riskiest method, plus, now, consuming a piece of bark was foolish.

Ten minutes later, Suxiao concocted the "Holy Oak Branch" into approximately 50 millilitres of golden liquid. Swirling the test tube in his hand, the liquid emitted an earthy fragrance reminiscent of post-rain soil.

Suxiao drank the liquid. The properties of the concoction were mild. As it went down his throat, a warm sensation spread within his body, activating the mana and increasing its quantity.

After half an hour, the warm feeling in Suxiao's body faded, and three notifications appeared.

"Your mana permanently increased by +406 points.""Your HP permanently increased by +263 points.""Your HP recovery rate per minute increased by +20."

The increase in mana and HP was substantial and incredible the mana. Suxiao could feel that the quantity of mana in his body had increased significantly, reaching an astonishing 3116 points.

This amount of mana was sufficient for most situations.

After using the "Holy Oak Branch," Suxiao took out the "Jasmine Injection (Gold)." The usage method of this item was straightforward—inject it into the muscles.

The somewhat icy medicine entered his muscles as the injector pierced his arm. Suxiao couldn't help but shiver.

Compared to using the "Holy Oak Branch," the sensation from the "Jasmine Injection" wasn't pleasant. His whole body felt cold, bone-piercing, yet his mind was prominent.

After a while, Suxiao opened his eyes. He turned his head subconsciously, and a speck of dust floated past his ear.

The reflex nerve speed increased by 7%, more potent than the heightened senses after attribute enhancements.
