Just Discharged From the Military and Got Tied Down by A Cold Beauty Chapter 458: The First Experience with Red Light

Lu Xiao had been watching for roughly ten minutes, his frown deepening by the mont.

These Demonized individuals possessed significant strength.

Just in that brief ti, he had already encountered three who were Transcendent at the Seventh Layer.

In such a vast forest, the small area he could see represented only a tiny scope; extrapolating to the whole, the number of Demonized at or above the Seventh Layer must be in the hundreds at the least.

As for Xu Hai City, it was scarce to find individuals above the Seventh Layer.

Yesterday, he overheard Luo Hanyi ntion briefly that in the entire Xu Hai City, including both known and hidden figures, there were at most five or six above the Seventh Layer.

"So, if these Demonized were to attack Xu Hai City, the entire place would instantly beco Purgatory," Lu Xiao muttered softly.

These Demonized didn’t appear during the day and didn’t enter houses at night, but...that was the situation now, it didn’t an it would stay that way.

Although Lu Xiao was still young, only in his early twenties,

he was well aware of one principle: the only constant in this world is change itself.

"Roar!" As Lu Xiao was pondering, a sowhat familiar roar jolted him back to reality.

That voice...

Luo Yongjuan?

Lu Xiao’s gaze shifted toward the pitch-black forest.

The next mont, a dark shadow burst forth from the forest, heading straight for the window.

Looking at Luo Yongjuan hovering at the window and howling at him, Lu Xiao’s eyes narrowed.

"So, you were specifically sent to monitor ?" Lu Xiao asked, addressing Luo Yongjuan outside the window.

Of course, Luo Yongjuan couldn’t respond.

"What’s the purpose of monitoring ?"

"Is it for an assessnt?" Lu Xiao asked again.

Outside the window, Luo Yongjuan suddenly ceased her howling, her previously wild gaze focusing for a brief mont.

Lu Xiao naturally noticed this shift, his eyebrows raising slightly.

"Assessing what, exactly? My strength, or my talent? And once assessed, for what purpose?" Lu Xiao continued throwing out questions.

However, by this ti, Luo Yongjuan had gone back to being frenzied, bellowing at Lu Xiao.

"Keep howling, or just co on in!" Lu Xiao snapped, swinging the window open and shouting at Luo Yongjuan outside.

At the window, Luo Yongjuan, in the midst of her frenzy, instinctively took two steps back upon seeing Lu Xiao open it.

It seed she still rembered being forcefully dragged into the room by Lu Xiao the night before.

"Coward!" Lu Xiao scoffed, then abruptly stretched his hand out through the window into the red light.

Almost instantly, Lu Xiao retracted his arm.

Then, with a bang, he closed the window and sat cross-legged on the spot.

"Holy shit..." Feeling the chaotic energy surging within, Lu Xiao looked both bizarre and ecstatic.

Those red lights were... superpower!

Superpower condensed to the extre.

He had barely extended his arm out for half a second when the torrent of superpower had filled to the brim that half of his ridians designated for storing superpower.

If he hadn’t withdrawn his arm quickly, his ridians might have burst from the overflow.

"I’m lucky I held back yesterday," Lu Xiao felt a surge of relief.

When he saw Luo Yongjuan last night, he actually considered going out to test it.

Luckily, he played it safe; otherwise, he might already be in the ground by now.

It took Lu Xiao nearly two hours to straighten out the rampant superpower within his ridians and also to cleanse the lingering superpower from other parts of his body.

These superpowers seed inherently imbued with Mutant Ability, capable of influencing the mind.

"So, might the entire Red Eyes phenonon be the Mutated Crystal of so supre powerhouse?" A bold thought suddenly streaked through Lu Xiao’s mind.

"That shouldn’t be the case..." However, Lu Xiao soon shook his head again.

If that were true, it would be too preposterous, crossing into the realm of Immortal fantasy.

"But honestly, this place is a goldmine for !" Putting aside those ssy thoughts, Lu Xiao beca invigorated.

He experienced a double harvest of Inner Qi and superpower.

After nightfall, rely cultivating for about ten hours could replenish all of his Inner Qi; as for superpower, even more absurd—reach out a hand, draw it back in, voila, filled to the brim!

The only concern was that he had to be quick when replenishing superpower, otherwise, his body might explode.

"Since fate itself has bestowed such favor, how could I not walk a new, magnificent path?"

Lu Xiao had always had ideas about superpower.

Before, he could only replenish superpower by absorbing Mutated Crystals, which restricted any grand ambitions.

Now, things were different. The red light outside was all superpower, and he could directly absorb it.

As long as he didn’t take in too much at once, and as long as he could promptly erase the influence of superpower on the mind, it was practically infinite.

"Let’s get started."
