Chapter 87: Granting Traits to Others! Beginning to Build His Own Power Base!
If he could strip them away, then could he also grant them?
Although killing Long Ya with poison was one part of his revenge, that kind of revenge felt far too stifling.
What he wanted was to beat Long Ya to death right in front of that woman.
That was also why, while he had been frantically researching Godfall Poison, he had also been madly absorbing toxins in an attempt to make himself stronger.
Unfortunately, while the toxins could make him stronger, the speed at which the toxins themselves grew surpassed the speed of his own increase in strength.
If this continued, then in the end, just as Xiao Xuan had said, he would be devoured by his own toxins and die completely.
“But my poison immunity has already been stripped away by you. If I research toxins now, I am afraid I will be poisoned to death instantly!”
Li Xie took a deep breath and looked at Xiao Xuan solemnly.
“That naturally is not a problem at all.”
Xiao Xuan smiled faintly.
Buzz!!!
In an instant, he vanished from where he stood.
Li Xie was a little dumbfounded.
Xiao Xuan had left, so did that mean he could just leave as well?
But when he thought about how his woman had once thrown herself into Long Ya’s arms, and the mocking smile on that man’s face, Li Xie’s expression twisted violently.
If he left now, then that humiliation would never be washed away.
Meanwhile, after leaving, Xiao Xuan returned directly to Imperial Capital University.
From the university marketplace, he purchased two items.
One was an ordinary Detoxification Pill, only a third-tier white-quality item.
The other was a green crystal orb.
Xiao Xuan looked at the attributes of the two items.
…………
Item: Detoxification Pill
Level: Peak Third Tier
Traits:
【Detoxification! White】 (Can remove and grant immunity to some ordinary toxins!)
Description: An utterly ordinary detoxification pill that can remove some ordinary toxins.
For Martial Artists in the Vitality Realm or the Innate Realm, it was a rare and valuable pill.
…………
…………
Item: Poison Element Orb
Level: Peak Fourth Tier
Traits:
【Poison Control! Green】 (Can control ordinary toxins to attack, while the user will not be harmed by toxins.)
【Poison Absorption! Green】 (Can extract toxins from the body of a poisoned target, and can raise its level and toxic potency by absorbing toxins!)
…………
Looking at the descriptions of these three poison traits, Xiao Xuan felt somewhat puzzled.
The three traits contained within this Detoxification Pill seemed, when combined, enough to form an Extinction Poison Body.
“So it seems that some special constitution-type talents are actually constitutions formed by fusing several basic traits together.”
“For example, the Blade Demon Body is actually formed by fusing blade talent with demonic transformation-type talents.”
“However, these special constitution-type talents all seem to come with certain side effects.”
“Of course, the greatest advantage is that a single trait like this can equal three or four ordinary traits.”
At that thought, Xiao Xuan began considering whether he should use constitution-type traits, or simply stack basic traits instead.
One option saved Eco Points, while the other was safer.
But Xiao Xuan quickly came to a realization.
Although constitution-type traits had side effects, as long as the balance was properly maintained, those side effects would not erupt.
For example, the reason the Extinction Poison Body had caused the toxins to erupt was mainly because Li Xie’s own strength was too weak to suppress them.
And the reason his own demonic power had erupted last time was mainly because he had too few positive constitutions.
If he got some light-element or sacred-type traits to oppose the demonic and dark-type ones, then such a thing would absolutely not happen again.
With that thought, Xiao Xuan directly plundered the three traits and then upgraded all of them to high silver.
It only cost him 300 million.
But the Extinction Poison Body he had obtained from Li Xie was no ordinary gold trait. If he recycled it directly, it would bring in at least seventy to eighty billion Eco Points.
Buzz!!!
The next instant, Xiao Xuan vanished from where he stood once more.
When he reappeared, he was already back beside Li Xie.
Seeing that Li Xie had obediently remained where he was, Xiao Xuan nodded in satisfaction.
“You will be glad you made today’s choice. Even if you had run, I would not have hunted you down.”
“After all, I have already obtained what I wanted.”
Xiao Xuan looked at Li Xie and spoke slowly.
“You said that as long as I submit to you, you can give me the power I want. Was that true?”
Li Xie looked at Xiao Xuan seriously.
“That is only natural. So then, your choice is...?”
Xiao Xuan said with a smile as he looked at Li Xie.
“As long as you can give me talent and strength surpassing Long Ya’s, I am willing to follow you for all eternity!”
Li Xie bowed respectfully to Xiao Xuan.
“Very good. Remember those words.”
The corners of Xiao Xuan’s lips rose slightly. In the next moment, he placed his right hand directly on Li Xie’s shoulder.
Boom!!!
In an instant, a terrifying aura erupted from Xiao Xuan’s body.
At once, an overwhelming force descended upon Li Xie, pressing him to his knees. Yet at the same time, to his horror, Li Xie discovered that his physical body was being strengthened at a frantic pace.
He hurriedly opened his status backend, and was instantly shocked to see that his purple Strength Enhancement, Speed Enhancement, and Defense Enhancement were rapidly changing toward silver. After turning silver, the light they gave off became increasingly dazzling, until faint golden specks actually began to flicker within them.
All three traits had been upgraded to high silver.
Even his Aptitude Enhancement had also been upgraded to high silver!
This was high silver Aptitude Enhancement!
With that alone, even if he absorbed no toxins at all, his future achievements through pure cultivation would surpass many experts who possessed gold traits.
Yet it still was not over.
Wave after wave of powerful toxins began pouring madly into his body.
Three more traits had appeared within him.
All three were poison-type traits, and all three were high silver as well.
Although the three combined still could not compare to his previous Extinction Poison Body, once they were added to the three physical-body traits, his combat power and future potential had already surpassed his former self.
“Just who is this person?”
“How could he possess such a miraculous method?”
“Could it be some kind of blessing-type talent?”
“But if so, how long does it last?”
“And besides, blessing-type talents seem only able to grant people traits far weaker than the user’s own talents.”
“Even a gold blessing-type trait can at most grant someone a purple trait!”
“Could it be that this person before me possesses a trait beyond gold?”
At that moment, Li Xie’s mind began racing wildly.
There were many blessing-type talents in this world.
Many of those who possessed such traits had grown into the so-called holy charlatans of one divine sect or another.
Of course, as long as they did not do anything too outrageous, the state would not interfere with them. After all, the state also had extensive cooperation with those charlatans.
Still, Xiao Xuan’s blessing effect was far too powerful, was it not?
“What weapon do you like to use?”
