Chapter 73 Leopard Speed
After the second spiritual power vortex condensed, Li Xiang still felt that there was a lot of residual medicinal power in his body, so he continued to practice breathing techniques and physical skills, hoping to break through the third stage.
However, he soon became a little disappointed and stopped at the middle stage of the second level of transcendence, and the effect of the medicine was exhausted.
"It's actually quite good. After all, there are no mysterious particles on Earth right now."
Because the system "arrived early", the "mutated creatures" he killed were not real mutants, but would mutate after the apocalypse ten years later. Only Li Xiang was a true transcendent.
He killed the "pseudo-10th-order wild boar" with his extraordinary body, so he was able to kill it with one strike. If he encountered a real 10th-order black-maned white-fanged beast, even a hundred current Li Xiangs might not be able to control it.
Li Xiang adjusted his mood and carefully felt himself. After realizing that he had broken through to the second level, a rune was born in the vortex of spiritual power in his right calf. It floated up and down. With a slight activation, his body shot out like lightning. The short burst speed was two or three times faster than before.
“Godspeed!”
He quickly figured out the "essence" of this rune, "Godspeed x1", which allowed him to climb walls and fly over rooftops, walk on snow without leaving any traces, and his short burst speed could reach 120 kilometers per hour. Long-distance running of 200 kilometers a day was no problem.
120 kilometers per hour, even the fastest cheetah can run at that speed. Converted into meters per second, it is 33.33 meters per second.
In one second, twenty or thirty meters away, even if the opponent has a gun, he may not be able to hit him. It is not that Li Xiang's speed is faster than the bullet, but that it is faster than the enemy's aiming and pulling the trigger.
Within thirty meters, before you can even pull the trigger, he will pounce in front of you, snatch your gun, and behead you!
In terms of short bursts of energy, he is comparable to the fastest cheetah. However, in terms of long-distance running, Li Xiang's endurance far exceeds that of a leopard.
The 200 kilometers per day is the most conservative estimate of Li Xiang, if he walked at ease, without panting, in less than eight hours, and maintained peak condition at all times, without overdrawing his physical strength or vitality. If he ran desperately, it would definitely be much more than that.
In the spiritual vortex between his eyebrows, there was also a rune suspended, which was the "night vision" from before. In addition, there was a pair of small white fang daggers, which, like the runes, floated up and down in the spiritual vortex.
Only extraordinary weapons can be integrated into the body. Ordinary weapons, such as high-density knives, kitchen knives, three-pronged steel forks, etc., cannot be integrated into the body.
In Li Xiang's previous life, he was at level five and could only use an alloy sword. He had no qualifications or chance to obtain extraordinary weapons, so he was quite fond of the pair of White Fang daggers.
With a thought, the White Fang Dagger broke away from the vortex of spiritual power and appeared in his palm.
This is the "dropped item" from a tenth-level monster. It is as white as jade, smoother and more delicate than ivory. The handle is made of an unknown wood with beautiful patterns.
Li Xiang aimed at a stone ten meters away and threw the White Fang dagger in his hand.
"call out"
In an instant, White Fang's dagger sank into the stone.
There were no sparks, only a slight "hiss" sound, as if a sharp knife had stabbed into flesh.
"Oh my god, this is at least dozens of times sharper and stronger than the Gaomi knife!" Li Xiang couldn't help but sigh.
Although his high-density axe was forged with special steel blades for shield machines, it was still an ordinary item and naturally could not be compared with the pair of white-fang daggers.
Li Xiang used another White Fang dagger to cut the stone and pulled out the White Fang dagger embedded inside. He examined the dagger body and the dagger tip and found no damage at all.
He stroked the White Fang Dagger and found that after being nurtured by spiritual power, he had established a subtle connection with the dagger.
"Isn't it a flying sword?"
Once this thought came to his mind, Li Xiang couldn't stop himself and started the rehearsal.
He threw the White Fang Dagger far away in an empty direction, testing it as he threw.
After several attempts, he discovered that while the White Fang Dagger was flying, he could indeed guide its direction, and even make it turn in the air, but the distance couldn't be too far. If it was more than twenty meters, it wouldn't be very effective. Moreover, he could only guide the direction, not control it as he pleased.
Of course, it is impossible to fly a sword and recall it out of thin air like in fairy tales, but within a certain range, about a hundred meters, you can sense its existence, so there is no need to worry about losing it and not being able to find it.
Li Xiang guessed that this was probably because his realm was too low.
After receiving two 500-point rewards, Li Xiang now has sufficient achievement point balance in his account. He feels that he can redeem it for a method to conceal his aura.
He had gone into the mountains to collect Polygonatum sibiricum and pick mushrooms before, and he had indeed attempted to "sweep the mountain". However, the coverage range of this "mutant organism identification function" was only ten meters around him, and most animals were very alert. Before he could get within ten meters, they would have run away dozens of meters away.
Perhaps, it was because he sensed his powerful aura and felt that he was not someone to be trifled with, so he was scared.
It is estimated that only a wild and ferocious creature like a wild boar, especially when it is starving, would actively attack him.
So, it's not that he didn't sweep the mountain, but the harvest was very small, only a nest of ants and a nest of centipedes, because these small creatures can't run far.
Moreover, he thought that there were still more than nine years until the "mysterious particles" of the end of the world. Due to their life span, very few animals could survive until then, which made "extraordinary potential" even rarer. Perhaps, animals born a few years later would have a greater chance of mutation.
Plants, especially trees, usually have a long lifespan, but plants are naturally weak in spirit, and it is even more difficult for them to transform into tree spirits and vine monsters. The clump of golden thunder bamboo in the back mountain of Li Xiang's home is therefore extremely precious.
Li Xiang picked and chose in the system mall and found a product called "Bright Pearl Darkening". For only 80 achievement points, he could restrain his own "brilliance" and make himself look like an ordinary person, but it was only suitable for low-level extraordinary people.
If you encounter a mid-to-high level transcendent above level six, you probably won't be able to hide it from him.
Of course, there are also advanced versions in the system with even stronger hiding abilities. For example, even the eighteenth-level and even the saint-level cannot see through his true colors, but that is expensive and cannot be afforded now.
"That's it!" Li Xiang conveyed the final instruction with his mind, and soon, a spell appeared in his mind. It was not very complicated, and he mastered it after studying it for a few minutes.
A dark gray mist-like aura enveloped his entire body, making him, who was originally "spirited" and "radiant", instantly become "restrained", looking like an ordinary person, the kind that poses no threat at all.
If he wants, he can release this state at any time.
Li Xiang decided to start clearing the mountains, starting with the mountains near his home, to remove all hidden dangers. He didn't want to see any more ferocious wild boars charging towards him.
As for home, with the protection of the "Great Wall of Ice and Snow", grandma's safety should not be a problem.
Of course, he has to live stream to earn some tips, and also to maintain his popularity. If he doesn't update for a long time, his fans will drop. But it's too inconvenient to use a mobile phone stand, so he plans to go to the city and buy a camera helmet, the common one with a camera on the head and a first-person perspective mode.
