The City of Terror

 Moreover, the [Carving] skill appeared to provide some benefits to the [Weapon Manufacturing] skill.

  Even if he bought an island as a way to retreat, money wouldn"t be enough.

  Since it was like that, Wei Xiao Bei did not hesitate and concentrated on his [Carving] skill.

  In less than a second, 500 evolution points were consumed as the green-colored [Carving] skill turned blue.

  On the other hand, the skill turned from master to perfection.

  Wei Xiao Bei felt as if the many things about carving that he did not understand before suddenly flowed into his head. He even recalled the carving books that he had read before, comparing them to each other.

  Wei Xiao Bei believed that his skills were now on the level of a Master Sculptor.

  Perfection was the same as putting in 20 years of effort, but this was if a person was single-mindedly devoted to carving. Their skills would definitely be on the level that could shock the world.

  At this time, Wei Xiao Bei did not continue to increase his [Carving] skill.

  He now moved his attention to his Muscle Attribute. When he entered the Dust World this time, he had released electricity a lot of times, causing him to eat the Immortal Quality roasted meat and increase his status.

  Right now, his Muscle Attribute had already reached 57 points!

  He only needed 3 points to increase it to 60 points and evolve the [Intermediate Power Burst] Ability.

  Naturally, the most ideal situation was to eat Immortal Quality dishes until his status increased to 60 points.

  However, it was simply not easy to cook Immortal Quality dishes. The remaining Immortal Quality dishes should only be eaten when he needed them or they would be a waste.

  On the contrary, the Evolution Points were a lot easier to obtain compared to Immortal Quality dishes.

  Thus, Wei Xiao Bei concentrated on his Muscle Attribute. With a single thought, his Evolution Points quickly decreased, while the Muscle Attribute increased.

  When a sub-attribute reaches 40 points, it would need 4 Evolution Points to increase by 0.01 points.

  After using 1200 Evolution Points, his Muscle Attribute had now reached 60 points.

  Just when it increased to 60 points, Wei Xiao Bei could feel his muscles begin to go numb as his entire body was beginning to cry out in pain.

  It"s here!

  Wei Xiao Bei was already very familiar with this pain.

  However, even if he was familiar, he still could not endure it.

  His entire body was sprawled on the bed. As every single muscle fiber squirmed, they began to melt to the point and even the muscles in his stomach that had never melted before also began to melt. Even his heart muscles were not able to escape this fate.

  He could not move his body anymore. He felt as if countless small knives were moving back and forth all over his body. With every second, the pain repeated and intensified.

  Pain like this was incredibly hard to suppress. In the end, Wei Xiao Bei had to follow his template and submerge his conscience, focusing on his Blood Channels.

  The Blood Channels definitely existed within the human body, but modern techniques were not able to prove its existence.

  This was something he had already noticed the last time his muscles reorganized.

  In simpler terms, even if his muscles turned to liquid, it would have no effect on the Blood Channels at all since they were independent existences.

  Wei Xiao Bei slowly urged his Blood Channels and circulated his Qi. As his muscles continued to melt, his Qi became easier to move. It was to the point that Wei Xiao Bei could split his attention and move all the Qi in his Meridians and Blood Channels.

  If it was in a normal situation, Wei Xiao Bei"s martial attainment would only allow him to cycle one Blood Channel.

  In other words, the benefits to his Qi circulation increased by 10 times.

  Borrowing this chance to circulate all his Qi, the pain decreased a lot.

  If anyone suddenly entered Wei Xiao Bei"s room, they would be alarmed to see that Wei Xiao Bei had become all bones with flesh-colored liquid attached to it. It appeared to be alive and was continuously writhing.

  In the end, Wei Xiao Bei"s muscles, connective tissues, internal organs, nerves, and various meat were all turned to liquid.

  At this time, the piercing pain completely disappeared.

  There were no more nerves to transmit the pain.

  Time slowly pa.s.sed. The liquid flesh began to generate various body parts to cover the skeleton.

  The pain that Wei Xiao Bei received from this was not any less than the pain from his muscles melting.

  When the connective tissues, internal organs, muscles, and skin were generated, they all gave Wei Xiao Bei an endless itch. It was as if countless ants were crawling on them.

  If he could move his body and if it was not for the fact that his muscles were not yet reorganized, he would have already killed himself from the itch. He wanted to just break his entire body.

  Naturally, at this point in time, Wei Xiao Bei could only continue to ignore his urge and simply bear with the itch.

  As his muscles reconstructed, his connective tissues and internal organs all appeared. His skeleton began to disappear from view, but Wei Xiao Bei still looked creepy as he did not have any skin.

  In the end, following the generation of his skin, Wei Xiao Bei returned to normal.

  After cycling his Qi one last time, Wei Xiao Bei"s conscience came back.

  What made Wei Xiao Bei happy was that after his Muscle Attribute increased to 60 points, his [Intermediate Power Burst] changed to [Advanced Power Burst]!

  Advanced Power Burst: This ability temporarily increases Strength Attribute by 10 points! Because this ability is gained after increasing Strength to 60 points, it replaces Intermediate Power Burst.

  10 points increase in Strength was not a small thing.

  Many treasures could increase an attribute. For example, Wei Xiao Bei"s cooking could permanently increase attributes.

  However, these attributes had a limit to their increase. Some of the attribute increases could not exceed certain levels. Some of them would have their effects decreased after reaching a certain level.

  On the other hand, [Advanced Power Burst] could increase his Strength Attribute by 10 points no matter how high it was!

  Wei Xiao Bei already knew that increasing attributes was not a simple matter. The later it was, the greater the benefits would be.

  Although this empowering effect was not too strong, having an increase in 10 points to his 60 points Strength would allow him to lift up a 20-ton object.

  It was that simple. If Wei Xiao Bei"s Strength increased to 70 points, then the effect of [Advanced Power Burst] would be even better and he would probably be able to even lift a 40 or 50-ton object!

  In short, the [Advanced Power Burst] might not seem like much, but in battle, it was a lot stronger than [Intermediate Power Burst].

  As he gazed at his muscles, Wei Xiao could feel his own power increase by another level.

  He channeled strength into his waist to stand up. Bang!

  The bed instantly collapsed.

 Wei Xiao Bei frowned. There was no doubt that he had used too much power.

  Now that his Strength was at 60 points, he was in a situation where he had lost control of his power again.

  For him, this was not a good thing.

  It appeared that his out-of-control power was quite strong. Anything that he b.u.mped into would break. However, this was not a good thing for a Guo Shu Grand Scholar like himself.

  This was the same as wasting his strength. Not being able to control his own power in a fight would cause accidents.

  After breaking a cup, Wei Xiao Bei grabbed a carving knife and broke off the leg of his bed. Then he sat on the ground and began carving.

  Under the situation where he could not control his strength, it was very difficult to carve.

  On his first cut, he had cut off a piece of wood from the bed leg, then immediately lost control as he squeezed the knife into sc.r.a.p iron.

  However, there was no need to panic as Wei Xiao Bei still had another knife.

  He took out the T-rex tooth from his storage bracelet and began carving.

  In less than half an hour, Wei Xiao Bei had sc.r.a.pped 10 daggers!

  Moreover, the bed leg had completely turned into wood shavings.

  Even if he failed, Wei Xiao Bei still felt that his control had increased a bit.

  However, according to this speed, he would not be able to regain control of his strength within three days.

  It must be known that with Ao Yan"s matter, Wei Xiao Bei could only stay in the real world for three days. Otherwise, Ao yan would bring him trouble.

  Wei Xiao Bei thought for a bit and moved his attention to his st.u.r.diness.

  Increasing his st.u.r.diness could increase his control over his strength and prevent situations where he could pull a muscle. Moreover, he could also increase his strength.

  This was something that he had already known.

  Compared to Muscle, his St.u.r.diness was only at 48.1 points. It was not a small number.

 Naturally, after st.u.r.diness increased, he would once again suffer.

  After using up 4,760 evolution points, his St.u.r.diness increased to 60 points. Wei Xiao Bei felt the bones in his body begin to change.

  In simpler terms, his bones were being crushed one by one. Then they would be reorganized to the point that even his periosteum and internal organs were dragged in.

 The entire process was not just painful, but it also caused an unbearable itch.

  The only saving grace was that it was a lot easier to cope with compared to muscle restructuring. After his body finished strengthening, Wei Xiao Bei"s was covered in sweat. Even his bed sheets were soaked.

  Wei Xiao Bei stepped on the ground and could clearly feel that his body weight had increased a lot. On the other hand, his height did not change at all. This meant that his body"s density once again increased.

  Luckily, the increase in his body weight was not too abnormal. Otherwise, he would be worried about crus.h.i.+ng the cement under his foot.

  Naturally, increasing his st.u.r.diness also gave him a new ability.

  His [Power Crush] had already evolved into a new ability.
