Chapter 151: Advancent: Extraordinary Rank-6
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Gurgle, gurgle...
Bubbles kept rising up to the surface in an area in the sea. They burst after they made contact with the air, creating hot white steam.
Boom!
All of a sudden, the temperature of the seawater seed to be rising. An exceptionally large white bubble leaped out, following which so small fish and shrimps floated to the surface with their bellies turned upward.
“Advancent, finally! I’m Extraordinary Rank-6 now!”
Ji Ye sat with his legs crossed on top of a Snapping Dragon Turtle Boat in the sea and looked satisfied.
The advancent he made was on Nine Yang Divine Art, but there wasn’t any qualitative change from Rank-5 to Rank-6. In terms of proficiency, it was still within the Adept range.
But the improvent in his True Qi was significant. Even the small amount that had escaped into the water was able to boil the sea!
Moreover, although he had only advanced to Extraordinary Rank-6—
Ji Ye’s combat ability obviously couldn’t be evaluated by the level of his inner strength only.
Because compared to the inner strength, his physical strength was his forte. Be it the Nine Yang Divine Art or the Flood Dragon Blood, as well as the Extraordinary Forest Monster Liquor produced in the Forest Monster settlent that he had been drinking every day recently, they could all enhance his physical strength constantly.
By now, with his physical strength alone—
He could throw a random punch, and it would have the impact of sothing as heavy as thousands of kilograms. Even a dinosaur wouldn’t be able to withstand it, let alone tigers and leopards.
He wondered if he would be able to see dinosaurs here in the Land of Inheritance.
The strange idea suddenly struck Ji Ye.
“What a sha. The advancent of soul power is quite slow.
“Because I don’t have techniques that are good enough, and I can only make advancent through drinking the Soul Fluid, I’m still at Rank-4 now and cannot make it to Rank-5, which will bring the qualitative change!”
Ji Ye frowned at that thought.
For his inner strength, he had the Nine Yang Divine Art, and there was the Five Thunder Heavenly Spirit Technique for his divine sense. Both were of Perfect quality.
Although they had annihilated the Soul race, the Bloodsoul Essence-breeding thod they obtained was strictly speaking a “technical” skill, not a technique with the property of the soul.
As for the Five Thunder Heavenly Spirit Technique, although it was a Daoist technique, it leaned more on the Thunder Technique instead of the Elixir Technique.
Although it could, to so extent, strengthen the soul, it wasn’t its main purpose.
“I think I’ll have to use the Totem Wolf Skin to transform the soul power to advance it to Extraordinary Rank-5 as well so that I can avoid any particular weakness.”
Ji Ye thought to himself.
Because he had fused the Alpha Wolf’s Mark, he could transform the soul power in the Totem Wolf Skin to strengthen himself, but it would consu the accumulated soul power in the Totem Wolf Skin and might reduce it to a lower rank.
Therefore, he had to replenish it with enough soul power first.
Splash!
Just then, sowhere behind Ji Ye...
A black object suddenly appeared in the blue seawater and was quickly charging at him from behind.
It was a black creature in the shape of a swordfish. Black smoke wrapped around its upper mandible that was as sharp as a fencing sword, which was as long as 1.5m.
At its incredible speed, it could pierce even rock or tal plates.
Pew...
The black swordfish moved very fast, and Ji Ye didn’t seem to notice it.
In a split second, the fast-moving “longsword” of the black fish stabbed Ji Ye in the back.
Well, that was what it appeared to be, but in fact, the black tip of the sword dissipated completely when it made contact with Ji Ye.
The entire black fish then quickly transford inside the water, turning into a black mask, which constantly took the form of various fish and sea monsters.
Apart from the Totem Wolf Skin, the Soul Mask could also store souls.
Moreover, because it could be controlled from a distance away, it was more convenient and practical in collecting souls.
“You’re back.”
Ji Ye rose out of the surface of the sea after he retrieved the mask. He then looked over his shoulder.
In the direction where the Soul Mask ca from, two Snapping Dragon Turtle Boats were sailing.
Behind the two boats were a lot of dead bodies of sea fish and monsters that had been tied up, and they looked a lot like the fish and monsters in the Soul Mask.
“How did it go today?”
Standing on the sea surface, Ji Ye asked Ruan Xiaoer, who was standing on top of one of the boats.
“Master, we’ve killed 208 Ordinary sea monsters and two Extraordinary ones. Today, two more people reached the Extraordinary level!”
Wearing a sharkskin suit, Ruan Xiaoer held the Tiger-striped Shark Saber as he replied with a smile.
He had caught up with the rest of the Commanders in the settlent and was an Extraordinary Rank-4 now.
He might even make it to Rank-5 earlier than Ling Zhen and Tang Long.
The Mirage Monsters were gone now, and they had also obtained the Snapping Dragon Turtle Boats, which were powerful items.
As the only Commander of the navy, Ruan Xiaoer was on the rise. He had been spending his days leading the navy out to kill sea monsters, and the EXP he had gained had far exceeded that of the infantry and cavalry Commanders, who had little monsters left to kill.
“Quickly. Carry everything ashore!”
After the two boats stopped, over a dozen stalwart settlent soldiers ca out. They all had the semi-transparent “Dragon Tooth” on their shark-skin belt. Moving like streaks of white light in the water, they soon moved the sea monsters and fish, whose wounds had been sealed by the black mud to stop the bleeding, to the shore.
After killing off the Mirage Monsters, they had obtained a lot of offerings with sea warfare properties.
By now, the number of soldiers in the navy had almost reached 50, and those who had reached the Extraordinary level were bestowed by Ji Ye the “Dragon Tooth” that had been refined with the dragon blood.
Hence, the third special force of the Twin Dragon Mount was established, which was known as the “Dragon Tooth Battalion”.
With the Silver Guards in the infantry, the Black Armor in the cavalry, and the Dragon Tooth in the navy, the Twin Dragon Mount now had all three major arms.
Well, there were four, actually.
Because the “artillery” led by Ling Zhen could be considered a special force as well.
Furthermore, they even had enough resources to build the fifth type.
“Master!
“Elder Jiao invited you to try the guns at the shooting range!”
A settlent soldier spoke respectfully to Ji Ye from so distance away on the shore.
...
It was a sunny day with so clouds in the sky.
A few birds circled around high up in the sky.
The shooting range wasn’t up in the Twin Dragon Mount. It was in the area of the tal n that was completely out of the Eagle n’s reach.
In the peripheral area of the silver pool, the humans had built a fortress-like tal factory, using the tal n’s original buildings as the foundation.
Because of the flat and open terrain, it was very suitable for testing long-range weapons like guns.
“Let’s go!”
Ji Ye spoke as he walked into the tal n’s old territory.
He walked casually toward the tal factory.
Bam!
As he walked, he suddenly heard a gunshot in the tal factory about 300 m away.
A bullet with a slight silver glimr spun rapidly and flew at Ji Ye’s head, giving off heat from the activated gunpowder.
Schwing!
Ji Ye paused a little. He then kept walking.
Bang, bang...
Every ten ters or so, a new bullet would shoot at him.
Bang, bang, bang...
When he had walked for about 150 m, the gunshot turned into a running fire, and several bullets ca at him in a row.
But Ji Ye kept walking steadily without so much as a pause until he walked into the tal factory, whose top part had been sealed off. The factory was guarded by the Silver Guards, who could exert their full combat ability here.
“Very impressive!
“From 300 m away, it should be fatal to creatures below Ordinary Rank-6.
“At 150 m, even Ordinary Rank-9 creatures would probably be killed if their vital parts are shot. Within 100 m, it should pose a threat to even Extraordinary creatures!” Ji Ye said after that.
Of course, by “Extraordinary creatures”, he ant the common ones.
Extraordinary creatures like himself, who had reached Rank-6 and had mastered a bunch of skills that involved Transcendent and Legendary power, were not included!
When the others looked at Ji Ye, they saw that a ball of seawater with a diater of over 2 m was floating at the level of his chest.
In it were dozens of shattered silver bullets, which were floating at different depths.
But even those closest to him were still over 30 cm from his chest.
Bullets could easily penetrate solid objects, but once they entered the water, the sudden change in the pressure could significantly reduce their power and could even make them shatter, not to ntion that the water had been enhanced by the Flood Dragon Blood.
Of course, the Eagle n wouldn’t be able to control such a great amount of water, so the effect of these bullets wouldn’t be the sa when hitting them.
Pop! Crackle!
With a wave of his hand, Ji Ye sent the seawater into a pool nearby.
The shattered bullets, on the other hand, fell to the ground next to Li Qing, who was holding a yellowish-brown gun that was about a ter long.
[Viper Rifle]
[Level: Extraordinary Rank-3]
[Rarity: Refined]
[Description: A well-perford gun manufactured by the Twin Dragon Mount. It could switch between sniper and assault mode.]
“This is made according to the latest drawings of a composite rifle of the firearms of the AK people in the country of Northern Bear. Although we temporarily don’t have many Earth materials, such as glass fibers, I noticed that a gunstock made from the red wood would work even better...”
Li Qing made the introduction.
They wouldn’t replicate a gun successfully just by obtaining the blueprint and the technical details.
Currently, they couldn’t possibly have all the materials needed to make the sa types of guns as those from Earth, so a lot of them had to be replaced with materials of similar properties.
Of course, it wasn’t necessarily a bad thing.
For instance, the core of the red wood used to build the gunstock had the property to absorb the kinetic energy, and it could work with the soft gold from the tal octopus to dissipate the impact force.
It enabled the “Viper” in Li Qing’s hand to maintain its accuracy even when it was fired continuously.
Because of these extraordinary materials, this gun was even more effective than its original design!
