Chapter 11 The King's Gift

"Perseverance" passive skill, activated when physical strength drops below 30%, reducing damage received by 50%.

"Recovery state: Passive skill. After high-intensity exercise, a certain amount of rest will clear all the fatigue in the body and restore it to its peak."

"Sprint: Active skill, movement speed increased by 30%."

"Hit the vital point: A close-range attack skill that can find flaws in the enemy and cause huge damage to the enemy."

"Throwing Dagger: A long-range attack skill that causes damage to the enemy by throwing a dagger. As the level increases, the hit rate and damage will also increase."

"This is..." Covering his head with one hand, the sudden information made his mind swell slightly, but soon, as his mind gradually became clear, Cheng Xiao also woke up.

It turns out that as Cheng Xiao's compatibility with the power of shadow becomes higher and higher, his level will also increase, just like Cheng Xiaoyu who has a system. He will continue to upgrade, and after reaching a certain level, he will also gain corresponding skills.

The several skills that appeared in his mind were just one of the many legacies that the Shadow King left for Cheng Xiao.

At the same time, a dark purple soul ring with strange patterns condensed and took shape on Cheng Xiao's body. This was not a soul ring from the Douluo World, but a soul ring condensed by the shadow power in his body. It was also the proof of his kingship!

The soul ring condensed by the power of shadow is not condensed according to the age, but is condensed according to the maximum age that Cheng Xiao's body can withstand. In other words, the soul ring condensed by the power of shadow will improve as Cheng Xiao's level increases, and this kind of soul ring is a growth-type soul ring!

The strength of Cheng Xiao's first soul ring is not a hundred years, but a thousand years. Although he has not taken any rare treasures to strengthen his body, how can his body, which is nourished by the power of shadow, have the physical fitness of an ordinary soul master?

As the first soul ring on Cheng Xiao's body slowly emerged, the Nether Wolf suddenly felt a fear from the depths of its soul. That fear transcended its bloodline and was a complete suppression of its life level. The one-ring soul master in front of it was someone it could kill with a single slap, but why did it feel an unspeakable threat of death from this human?

"Ah~~"

Knowing that if he did not move, he would face death, the Nether Wolf howled to the sky, as if to comfort his young heart. Then, he stared at Cheng Xiao with his wolf eyes, fangs exposed, and pounced at Cheng Xiao with his bloody mouth wide open.

However, facing the Netherworld Demon Wolf with its bloody mouth wide open and pouncing towards him, Cheng Xiao raised his arm expressionlessly, stretched out his fingers, and a dark purple light shot out from his fingertips.

As a dark purple light shot out from the fingertips, the Nether Wolf's body paused, and a thumb-sized hole appeared on its forehead, filled with the breath of death.

The next moment, the Netherworld Demon Wolf fell weakly at Cheng Xiao's feet. Its wide-open eyes were filled with deep horror. It would never have thought that a mere one-ring soul master could kill it so easily, without any effort at all.

Of course, the Nether Wolf didn't know that the boy standing in front of it was not Cheng Xiao himself, but the Shadow King who was using his body, because this was the power he left in Cheng Xiao's body.

boom--

All the shadow power swept out, and Cheng Xiao felt his body soften. He suddenly collapsed to the ground, gasping for breath, and the purple light that lit up in the depths of his eyes slowly dissipated at this moment.

bite!

At this moment, a cold voice without any emotion suddenly appeared in Cheng Xiao's mind.

[The system administrator has died, you do not have the authority of a system player... redefine your identity... heir to the third generation of kings... the gifts left by the kings have been distributed... I wish you good luck. ]

"The title of Wolf Slayer has been obtained. When the opponent's beast-type soul beast is attacked, all ability values ​​will be increased by 40%."

"Unknown Skill MAX: Passive skill, effect unknown."

"The Advent of the King of Another World (used)"

"Temporary recovery state: Instantly restore to peak state (used)"

The next moment, Cheng Xiao only felt that the scarce soul power in his body was recovering at a terrifying speed. Then, an indescribable feeling of comfort surged into his heart. This feeling could not be described in words. It was as if he had gone deep into the clouds, or as if he had entered some kind of peak of bliss. It was so comfortable.

It was unknown how long this comfortable feeling lasted. When Cheng Xiao slowly opened his eyes, it was already dark. He turned over and got up from the ground. Cheng Xiao was surprised to find that his body seemed to have undergone some changes due to the condensation of the soul ring. His originally strong body had grown a lot taller, and even his handsome face had become more handsome.

Looking down at his arms, even though it was dark, he could still see fundamental changes in his skin. To put it bluntly, it was like a body wash.

"It seems that the novice gift package that the Shadow King left for me has ended." Cheng Xiao released his martial soul again, but this time there was no abnormality as before. There was only a dark purple smoke lingering in his right palm. In the dark purple smoke, there seemed to be the roars of countless undead souls and loyal whispers.

After taking back his martial spirit, Cheng Xiao immediately sat down cross-legged. The large amount of information in his mind made it difficult for him to digest it for a while. Skills such as sprinting, hitting vital points, and throwing daggers all gave him a familiar feeling, but he had not really used them, so at the moment, he urgently needed to digest this information.

And right in front of Cheng Xiao, a burst of black smoke slowly rose from the body of the Nether Wolf that the Shadow King had killed on his behalf. Before it took shape, it seemed to be sensed by something and turned into a black shadow and drilled into Cheng Xiao's shadow.

As the black smoke penetrated into Cheng Xiao's shadow, a circle of yellow circles gradually rose on the body of the Nether Wolf. This was the yellow hundred-year soul ring produced by the Nether Wolf, but the energy it produced was abnormally thin. Judging from the energy reaction, it seemed to be inferior to the energy produced by the soul ring of a ten-year soul beast.

...

After it got completely dark, Tang San and his disciple, who had left Cheng Xiao behind to escape, were not very lucky. As the master had been running while enduring the pain, his strength was soon exhausted.

The original plan to leave the Soul Hunting Forest to call for help was temporarily put on hold. Considering that the Nether Wolf did not catch up with them, they chose to rest under a big tree and wait until they had recovered some strength before leaving the Soul Hunting Forest.

In the dark forest, the first thing that caught the eye was a makeshift bonfire. The pale yellow flames burned the firewood, making crackling sounds. Master and his disciples sat around the bonfire, their faces pale.

Obviously, the escape was not pleasant. Even though they successfully escaped from the pursuit of the Nether Wolf, they were still exhausted.
