Flesh of the Enemy, My Sustenance II

Material: Dragon Transformation Serpent Head

Quality: Extremely Rare

Description: The head of the White Snake Sage from Naruto and its Derivative Worlds, containing immense life force.

Effects: After fusion, one of the following traits may be obtained:

A: Serpent Body. Constitution +5, Strength -2. The body gains extraordinary flexibility, Bone Softening, and additional damage immunity against physical attacks.

B: Long-lived Species (Rare). Constitution +2. The body's rate of aging is greatly reduced, and lifespan is significantly increased.

C: White Scales (Uncommon). Spirit +1, Constitution +1. When fighting under sunlight, the body can reflect intense light from various angles, impairing the enemy's vision.

D: Shedding Skin (Rare). Every seven natural days, the outer layer of skin can be completely replaced, removing all negative statuses on the Reincarnator with a priority below medium.

E: Dragon Transformation Cultivator (Extremely Rare). Gain an affinity for vital energy. Absorb the essence of heaven, earth, sun, and moon for personal use. Through deliberate breathing, absorb vital energy from the environment and slightly increase one's energy attribute.

"What a pity. That white snake cultivated so diligently, only to be slain by you in the end."

Knight Sister handed the appraised white snake head to Bai Cangshu, her words carrying a trace of regret.

Bai Cangshu had no particular feelings about it. A battle was a battle, slaughter was slaughter. To lament afterward about how difficult someone else’s thousand years of cultivation had been would be far too hypocritical.

He merely clicked his tongue. The traits of this Dragon Transformation Serpent Head were not bad. Whether Long-lived Species or Dragon Transformation Cultivator, both would probably be excellent options for ordinary cultivators.

Unfortunately, Reincarnators were a group who lived from dawn to dusk. Longevity and slow cultivation held far less value for them.

He put the item away, intending to have Black Butler look around later for any special Reincarnators who needed it, so he could sell it at a good price.

"I can accept my advancement mission now, right?"

Knight Sister nodded. She felt sorry for the white snake that had cultivated for a thousand years, but she held no dislike for the Reincarnator who had killed it, just as she had said from the beginning.

Every true powerhouse had to be forged by stepping over the corpses of countless others who bore the name of powerhouse. The white snake’s thousand years of cultivation would ultimately become only part of another, stronger person’s foundation.

Just like the materials engraved upon her wrist and the wrist of the man before her.

"Of course. With your strength, you should have received this mission long ago."

These so-called NPCs of the Infinite Dimensional Space were clearly not merely mechanical NPCs. They could remember every Reincarnator’s previous enhancements and mission history, directly "see" whether a Reincarnator had received a high-tier evaluation, and yet still possessed their own personalities and preferences.

Knight Sister clearly thought highly of Bai Cangshu.

You have triggered the advancement mission: Flesh of the Enemy, My Sustenance II

Mission Description: In a one-on-one battle, kill a Plot Character or Reincarnator rated Strong-tier or above.

Mission Reward: Enter the Strong-tier and gain one opportunity to fuse materials.

Bai Cangshu raised an eyebrow. Compared with the mission from his previous rank merger, the possible targets for this advancement mission were no longer limited to Plot Characters. Reincarnators had also been included.

Clearly, once one reached the Strong-tier, they became elite mercenaries the Space could truly rely upon. At this stage, the Space intended to select only the best, even at the cost of turning weaker Strong-tier Reincarnators back into materials to be fused into stronger newcomers.

However, this change was good news for Bai Cangshu. He now had far more potential targets, because this advancement mission had a special hidden effect.

That was, when the target he killed met the mission requirements, the Space would forcibly turn the target’s head into material.

This was a forced-drop rule. For Bai Cangshu, it meant he had every chance to once again kill several qualifying targets at once in a chaotic battle, just as he had in the Demon Slayer Derivative World. That way, he could obtain multiple materials in one go.

He had already realized that obtaining traits through fusing materials was undoubtedly an important factor in widening the gap between high-tier Reincarnators.

This ability, which granted an additional powerful special effect upon fusion, was an important foundation for Reincarnators to rise rapidly in a short period of time.

Moreover, because an S-rank evaluation allowed one to obtain additional fusion attempts from Knight Sister, powerful Reincarnators naturally had more opportunities to fuse additional traits.

The differences in the number and quality of traits at every rank would ultimately lead to worlds apart in actual combat strength between two high-tier Reincarnators.

As Knight Sister had said, they were candidates who had crossed the first level of the Godhood Stairway "perfectly." Bai Cangshu guessed that this "perfect" meant he had successfully fused all three traits during his rank merger, and every one of them had been Extremely Rare quality.

This description had already revealed the essence of her power: crossing every stair perfectly!

"Knight Sister, one of my abilities has been sealed. Do you know any way to resolve it?"

Since he had not yet entered the Strong-tier, Bai Cangshu still could not truly obtain the Villain Savior title. However, he was currently wearing Ororchi Yashiro’s Inherited Title, so he did not dwell on it too much and directly asked about the sealing of his Satsui no Hado.

Knight Sister’s eyes narrowed. She looked him over from head to toe while resting her chin on one hand in thought.

"Satsui no Hado, huh? That really is a troublesome ability."

"Killing Intent Infusion has affected your mind. The Space sealing it is in accordance with the rules. Hmm…"

Knight Sister quickly came up with a solution.

"I can reset this ability. You only need to pay… hmm… two B-rank Anomaly Points…"

Bai Cangshu was already prepared to turn around and leave. He would not give up the power of the Satsui no Hado, and the option of weakening it then raising it again after he became stronger was beyond what he could accept.

What was more, he actually had to pay Anomaly Points for a choice that weakened his own power?!

"And eighteen thousand Dimensional Points."

Would you like to pay B-rank Anomaly Point ×2 and Dimensional Points ×18,000 to revert Ability: Satsui no Hado LV4 to Satsui no Hado LV3?

Bai Cangshu waved his hand and left the Rank Management Office.

At that moment, the East District Slum Area had drawn a small gathering of Reincarnators because of the several items he had put up for sale.

In the early stages, Chakra was actually an extremely convenient power system. It offered strong escape capabilities, broad applications, and sufficient destructive power. In the later stages, there were also many bloodline-type abilities that could raise its upper limit. Theoretically, it even had the potential for the Six Paths-level and the Otsutsuki Clan’s level of power capable of colonizing the cosmos.

Thus, within the Infinite Dimensional Space, it had once become one of the most popular Anime World powers alongside the One Piece World’s Haki and the Hunter World’s Nen Ability, nearly catching up to broad power systems like magic and Battle Aura.

Therefore, Bai Cangshu’s items all had excellent marketability.

Bai Cangshu was in no hurry to return. Even when he saw that Black Butler was already trying to contact him, he ignored it and headed toward the Goddess’s Abode instead.

The stone lions guarding the White Jade Staircase moved from far away this time.

They tilted their heads, constantly sniffing the air. It had been a long time since such a rich scent of offerings had appeared.

The stone lions eagerly stepped aside and watched Bai Cangshu climb the staircase.

As Bai Cangshu walked up the White Jade Staircase, clouds and mist drifted around him, and the Goddess’s voice rang proactively in his ears.

"Little one, I knew I had not misjudged you. Such a rich scent of offerings truly delights me~"
