"Choose C."

You chose C · Attribute Extraction

Extracting...

Extraction complete. Strength +13. Current: 47

A current surged through Bai Cangshu’s muscles. Accompanied by a flash of agonizing pain, he felt every muscle in his body instantly torn apart, only to regenerate even faster.

Even his current Limit Break Spiral could neither replicate nor closely perceive that kind of information-level interference with his physical body.

The only thing he could sense was that, at this very moment, his strength… had become unimaginably powerful!

With a thought, Bai Cangshu raised his foot and stomped on the ground.

Boom!

A dull impact sounded, yet the stone floor did not crack.

Li Qingzi had no idea why, but the next moment, cries of alarm suddenly erupted from the crowd hundreds of meters away.

"Ah!"

"Careful, it’s an earthquake!"

Bai Cangshu grinned. This was an artificial minor earthquake, created entirely through his inhuman strength and a Martial Arts Grandmaster’s control over force.

He was now getting closer and closer to what ordinary people considered a "superhuman."

"You leave first. I’ll have March Group personnel handle things here. The press conference will probably be held later. If all goes well… tonight’s news will show the story of a superhuman assassinating the president trending worldwide."

Li Qingzi’s silver eyes returned to normal. Feeling the abnormal rate at which Bai Cangshu was growing stronger, she felt a sense of helplessness.

How was she supposed to break free from a monster like this…?

Bai Cangshu lowered his eyelids. Li Qingzi’s inner voice appeared within his Mantra. He merely glanced at the woman, then bent his knees and kicked off like a black shadow.

With a bang as the air exploded, he shot into the sky. Amid the pitch-black curtain of rain, qi continuously burst from beneath Bai Cangshu’s feet. He completely shook free of gravity’s control, soaring upward and smashing through the rain clouds into the skies above.

"Choose B."

You chose B · Item Extraction

Extracting...

Xu Zhiyu had already drawn Bai Cangshu’s attention by displaying that treasure map. During the earlier battle, he had also revealed some unused trump card.

If Bai Cangshu had not been mistaken, it was probably some kind of potion as well.

Extraction complete.

You obtained item: Worn Notebook (White) ×1
You obtained item: Treasure Map: Legend of Demon's Third Eye (Red)
You obtained item: Hearthstone (Purple)
You obtained item: King of Sky and Wind's Blood Marrow (Red)

Standing above the clouds, with violent winds, torrential rain, and lightning raging beneath his feet, Bai Cangshu looked at the results of his extraction and covered his forehead.

If his bizarre Strong Luck was fate, then he gladly accepted it.

If this coincidence was some kind of arrangement, then he did not mind seeing how it ended.

Bai Cangshu was cruel to others, and even crueler to himself.

He first opened the notebook with its red cover. It truly was an ordinary notebook without any mysterious power, and the handwriting inside was likely Xu Zhiyu’s own.

Bai Cangshu gave it a quick scan. It was probably something like a "murder diary." Xu Zhiyu had recorded in detail the process of slaughtering all manner of ordinary people, and the delight he took in it could be felt through his words.

The latter pages also documented some of his plans and arrangements. The most useful part for Bai Cangshu was probably the information on certain reincarnators.

These appeared to be partial profiles of members of his Yi Xin Society. Some were detailed, while others were brief.

Bai Cangshu put it away, then turned to the red treasure map Xu Zhiyu had previously used to tempt him.

Treasure Map: Legend of Demon's Third Eye (Red)

Quality: World's Rare Treasure

Description: A precious treasure map passed down from a certain world, documenting a legendary treasure.

Effect: Pay A-rank Anomaly Point ×1 and 30,000 Dimensional Points to directly activate a designated deployment mission leading to a certain world. (Warning: This world is extremely difficult. You cannot return before completing the designated deployment mission.)

Based on Bai Cangshu’s guess, this world was probably Dragon Ball: Great Demon, or some world connected to ancient Chinese mythology.

Its power level was extremely high, which was why Xu Zhiyu had never used it.

Hearthstone

Quality: Extremely Rare

Description: A special item widely circulated in a magical world, possessing the power to distort space-time.

Effect 1: Can record a space-time coordinate. After activating the item, the user can be teleported to the recorded coordinate. (Current recorded coordinate: λ=116.4°, φ=39.9°, r=6371km, t=1435)

Effect 2: After being used once, this item must wait to recharge. (3/30)

Overwrite the Hearthstone's recorded coordinate?

Looking at the special stone engraved with blue-and-white magical runes in his hand, Bai Cangshu did not choose to erase its original coordinates. Instead, he placed it in his Backpack.

If he had guessed correctly, this item was incredibly valuable, and Xu Zhiyu had already used it to record a certain mission world.

That coordinate was a route that allowed repeated entry into the same mission world.

Bai Cangshu then turned his gaze to the final vial of potion.

This was what Xu Zhiyu had only taken into his hand at the very end. In his mind, it was probably his final trump card against a powerful enemy.

King of Sky and Wind's Blood Marrow

Quality: World's Rare Treasure

Description: Blood marrow deliberately hidden by the Dragon Monarch of a certain world, containing dangerous and powerful strength.

Usage Requirement: Possesses bloodline traits such as Dragonborn or Dragon Blood.

Effect 1: Upon use, the bloodline will be purified, and the lineage will undergo an irreversible change.

Effect 2: After this item is used, the Dragon King Revival Trial will be passively activated. If the trial fails, the reincarnator will undergo Body Snatching.

Looking at it, Bai Cangshu understood what kind of trump card it was. At the same time, he understood why Xu Zhiyu had hesitated.

At his core, Xu Zhiyu was merely a twisted man who enjoyed tormenting the weak. He had no confidence that he could defeat a Dragon King.

So at that time, he had not merely been hesitating out of arrogance.

He had been afraid. He had been terrified.

Bai Cangshu was particularly fond of items with special backlash effects.

"Mr. Xu Zhiyu, you really did accumulate quite a few good things~"

Bai Cangshu suddenly felt that, given Xu Zhiyu’s mentality, his Backpack was very likely filled with useful and precious items.

On one hand, the man was arrogant and conceited, convinced he would never die. On the other, he was cowardly and timid, so he trusted no one and would never leave his treasures in another person’s care.

Tsk. Thinking about it that way, only being able to extract four items was a little regrettable.

Perhaps he should have tortured him first and forced him to hand over everything…

Bai Cangshu flew swiftly through the clouds. His control over qi was improving rapidly.

The Sky Dancing Technique required extremely precise control of qi. Bai Cangshu flew above the clouds for around ten minutes before returning to the estate when he felt his qi beginning to weaken.

By then, panic had spread throughout the estate. Bai Cangshu realized that Li Xianhou, that old man, had acted even faster than he had expected.

Moreover, in this country, March Group truly could command the wind and rain, with complete control over the media.

"You’re back, Mr. Bai. While this old man is still in decent spirits, how about we discuss our plans going forward?"

Li Xianhou sat in the garden. He had now retreated behind the scenes, and Li Chengji, his eldest son, was publicly the chairman of March Group.

But everyone knew that as long as he was alive, the true decision-maker of March Group would always be him.

Bai Cangshu put on the new robe offered by a maid and sat opposite Li Xianhou. Rather than discussing their future plans, he looked at Li Chengji, who was solemnly answering reporters’ questions on television, and said, "Change your heir. This country can be yours~"
