Chapter 36 – Dynamic Vision
Edited by Owner
After killing the Illusion Shadow Mountain Cat, Su Chen began to circulate his absorption technique.
When a lifeform possessing Origin Energy died, its corpse would begin to release the Origin Energy contained within.
If you cultivate during this period, you could achieve twice the improvements at half the effort.
However, these sorts of improvements were usually not apparent, therefore some people viewed this theory as a mere fabrication – there were differing att.i.tudes between people regarding the act of cultivating beside a corpse.
Su Chen also did not know the effectiveness of this method. As he felt no changes, he decided to stop after circulating for a while
The next thing to do was to collect his spoils of war.
A Fiend Beast was covered in treasure. Its skin could be sold, its meat could be consumed, its bone and marrow could be used to make bloodline potions, if it possesses an Origin Crystal, it will be an additional precious treasure that can enhance the cultivation.
However, this mountain cat was only a low-level Fiend Beast, the chances of it condensing an Origin Crystal is less than 0.1%, even a bloodline potion created from it would just be of the lowest grade and had a limited price tag. As it was not convenient to bring italong with him, he decided to just give up on it.
This battle had caused him to use two Origin Stones. After factoring in the value of those Origin Stones, Su Chen discovered that he actually made a small loss overall.
Firstly, it was because the battle with the mountain cat dragged for too long, resulting in excessive consumption, secondly, he was unable to carry so many resources.
If only he has a spatial ring.
However, to Su Chen, it was fine to make a loss. What’s important was that he obtained valuable combat experience in this battle.
This was the first time he fought a Fiend Beast in his life. After truly experiencing the power of a Fiend Beast, and now knowing the gap between him and Fiend Beasts, this will allow him to build confidence when facing another while also honing his actual combat capabilities.
Most importantly, his eyes have once again achieved another breakthrough.
Up till now, Su Chen’s eyes had experienced three transformations in total.
The first time, Su Chen could sense light, his world was only an absolute darkness.
The second time, Su Chen could finally see and had completely recovered his vision.
Both times was headed towards returning Su Chen to the state of a normal person.
While the third time, it brought Su Chen a new, never felt before experience. Something that a normal person did not have.
Dynamic vision.
That’s correct, Su Chen discovered that his eyes were able to capture certain objects at high speeds. His eyes could see the object’s movement at slower speeds, as well as seeing it much more clearly and accurately. Even if a mosquito was to fly past him thirty meters away, Su Chen would be able to see it, a visual sharp to the point of being able to clearly see traces of the mosquito beating its wings.
Is this what the old beggar meant by allowing him to see much more?
He was correct, after three years of tribulations, finally the hard times were over and the good times were about to begin!
Although he had guessed that it would be possible for his eyes to develop further, but when the moment came, Su Chen’s heart felt an insuppressible amount of excitement.
Today, instead of luring Fiend Beast, he practiced and tested his dynamic vision on the mountain peak.
After a day of experiment, Su Chen had finally understood how to use his new dynamic vision.
Dynamic vision could be act
ivated or deactivated. Every time it was deactivated, the objects within his vision would return to normal.
Long term use of dynamic vision would cause his eyes to tire but when deactivated, the fatigue acc.u.mulated could be slowly recovered.
When deactivating dynamic vision while the eyes were exhausted, normal vision would also be affected, resulting in a temporary blurred vision. However, as the eyes slowly recovered from fatigue, the blurriness would vanish.
On the flip side, if dynamic vision hadn’t yet fatigued the eyes, the eyes would maintain a constant alertness, and everyday the vision would improve. Although the improvement wasn’t large but it was already much stronger than Su Chen’s original sight capabilities.
Finally, dynamic vision was simply just dynamic vision. It would not affect time nor affect his own actions. It could only allow a person to see high speed objects, as for reacting to the object, he will have to rely on himself, like how he killed the mountain cat during the fight.
Even with that, it was enough to get Su Chen excited.
One must know that this was equivalent to a type of eye related Origin Skill, yet Su Chen had gotten it for free.
Although dynamic vision could not directly improve combat power but it had a rather impressive supportive role on combat.
What’s more, Su Chen believed that this was not the end, in the future, his eyes might improve even further.
After all, he could not forget the scene he saw when he was in Gu Qing Lou’s little house.
Will there be a day where his eye achieve x-ray vision?
Will there be a day where his eyes will possess many more abilities?
Su Chen did not know, but he is looking forward to it.
There had never been a day that filled Su Chen with as much confidence as this one!
In the days to come, Su Chen continued to “fish” on the mountain peak daily.
On the twelfth day, Su Chen met a Great Fanged Bear.
The Great Fanged Bear was very strong, its body was exceptionally hard while its strength was a few times more powerful that the Illusion Shadow Mountain Cat. A casual swat of its paw could shatter a large piece of rock into pieces. Its battle skill was to use its fangs to released air blade attacks. A close combat Fiend Beast suddenly possessing a long-range attack, nearly caught Su Chen off guard, despite his alertness.
Fighting this Fanged Bear took him more than half a day, and in between he had activated the Purple Crystal Armor, Cloud Stepping Boots, and finally the Ink Pattern Battle Blade to achieve victory.
The Ink Patterned Battle Blade was worthy of being called an Eighth Grade Origin Armament, it’s body was sharp by default. When Su Chen activated the Origin Skill: Blood Slaughter, a blood red light was released into the sky. The Great Fanged Bear that Su Chen was unable to damage, despite dealing it a few dozen slashes, was now able to cut it in half in one strike.

However, the battle blade’s side effect was also truly formidable. That one blade had drained large amounts of Su Chen’s stamina, nearly causing Su Chen to sit on the spot.
If he were to use it in his peak condition, Su Chen estimated that he could at most use Blood Slaughter three times. If he did not activate Blood Slaughter, then he could wield it for an hour.
Without a doubt, this time, it was another unprofitable encounter. Although the bear provided many more resources than the mountain cat, but this battle had consumed four Origin Stones.
Yet this battle also taught Su Chen many things. Through his fight with the bear, Su Chen not only was able to obtain experience fighting a power type opponent, the battle itself also improved his abilities greatly.
Especially after he consumed the bear meat and absorbed large amounts of Fiend Beast essence. The benefits were displayed during training and combat, constantly improving Su Chen’s strength. With only more than ten days of time, Su Chen felt that he had experienced an opportunity akin to a rebirth, his strength had obviously grown.
On the fifteenth day of reaching the Deep Red Mountain Range, Su Chen encountered the first troublesome situation since entering the Deep Red – two Black Scale Beast working together.
Su Chen did not hesitate and immediately jumped off the cliff, using the preinstalled net to escape.
The two Black Scale Beast had wasted a day of Su Chen’s time. To prevent the two beast from following him, Su Chen had no choice but to relocate far away and set up at another location.
On the eighteenth day, Su Chen killed a Blazing Flame Leopard. However, the Blazing Flame Ball shot by the beast had gave Su Chen a rather bad injury.It also taught Su Chen the price of being careless. After the fight, Su Chen consumed the healing potion from the person in black. His injuries had healed quickly but the price was a whole day of diarrhea.
On the twenty-first day, Su Chen killed another Illusion Shadow Mountain Cat, this time, he did not activate the Purple Crystal Armor and did not make a loss after the battle.
On the twenty-fifth day, Su Chen met a Dark Cloud Beast, this was a rather powerful Fiend Beast that possessed the ability to transform its body into a fog. Su Chen was unable to contend with that one, and escaped by jumping off the cliff again.
On the twenty-ninth day, Su Chen once again met the pair of Black Scale Beast, after successfully splitting the pair, he lured one away and killed it. However, before the Black Scale Beast fell, it released a final attack that shot out all the scales on its body. This time, Su Chen had been cautious. He immediately turned his body and used the barrier on his back to receive and block the attack. At this moment, the second Black Scale Beast had also arrived. Su Chen who had temporarily lost his ability to fight, jumped off the cliff a third time. The Black Scale Beast did not relent and chased after Su Chen for a whole day before Su Chen managed to kill it.
With that, Su Chen kept fighting within the mountain range. Drinking the blood of Fiend Beasts, feasting on Fiend Beast meat. One battle after the other, Su Chen’s fighting experience and strength had also greatly improved.
Before entering the mountain range, he just entered Ninth Layer Forged Body of ninety white stars. However, after consuming large quant.i.ties of Fiend Beast meat and constantly fighting, the energy within the Fiend Beasts were converted into Su Chen’s power, constantly pushing his strength higher. With only a month’s time, Su Chen had increased close to three white stars. At this rate, if there wasn’t an incident, after finishing the Deep Red Discipline, he would reach the peak of the Forged Body Stage.
But things were apparently unable to always maintain in his favor.
Very soon, Su Chen met with a new problem.
There is not enough Beast Luring Potion.
