Fantasy Talent Tree: Cultivation For 20 Years In Prison - Chapter 36

Chapter 36 So That’s How It Is

Wang Yun watched from the crowd as Yu Chen and Xi Ling’s combination won cheers. He felt very upset.

Not long after Xi Ling became the Immortal, Yu Chen often appeared by Xi Ling’s side.

As a result, Wang Yun had no chance to come into contact with Xi Ling at all. The plan that he thought was about to succeed had to be terminated.

Except…

Things weren’t over yet.

Since Yu Chen was not the Immortal, things became simpler.

Xi Ling was just a support-type Talent Tree. She would eventually be alone. At that time, Wang Yun would be able to find an opportunity…

More than a month after the engraving began.

Yu Chen, who was sitting cross-legged, trembled. An even stronger aura broke out of his body.

His Primordial Chaos Art had reached the second level of the third realm!

As his cultivation level increased, Yu Chen obtained a new talent point.

Yu Chen had already studied all the contents of the Talent Tree.

The strongest among the talents was not the talent itself, but its level.

Even if it was a useless talent, as long as it was raised to the max, it would have a very terrifying effect.

“The level of ‘Calm and composed’ is enough. Then let’s light the talent to increase mental strength.”

A talent that helped Yu Chen increase his mental strength could allow Yu Chen to complete the Blood Demon’s mission faster.

At that time, Yu Chen would not have to waste time here.

Besides, perhaps the prison guards had long realized that Yu Chen was resisting the monster.

The monsters also could no longer do anything to Yu Chen.

For several times now, Yu Chen had to repel ten waves of monsters before he was injured by them.

Perhaps it would not be long before Yu Chen was transferred to another prison again.

At the thought of this, Yu Chen was actually a little excited.

Staying in this darkness all day was about to drive Yu Chen crazy.

If not for his ‘Calm and composed’, Yu Chen would definitely have gone crazy.

(Power of Vitality – Low-grade: Mental strength doubled.]

The increase in his mental strength made Yu Chen’s perception more sensitive.

Then… the next step was to continue engraving the curse mark.

In the second year of Yu Chen’s imprisonment.

At this moment, Yu Chen had already stepped into the third realm level ten.

Yu Chen had also raised the ‘Power of Vitality’ talent to divine-grade. Just like the ‘Strength God’, divine-grade ‘Power of Vitality’ could also increase mental strength by a thousand times.

The curse mark was finally completed by Yu Chen.

Yu Chen called out to the Blood Demon in his heart, ‘The curse mark has been engraved. What should I do next?’

The Blood Demon said, ‘The curse seal can only affect the strength of one barrier. I can’t escape through the curse mark yet.’

‘You stay away from the silver chain now. Then resist as many monsters as you can.’

‘When the time comes, they will send you to the sixth floor of the Heavenly Prison. There will also be things that I need you to do over there.’

At the Blood Demon’s request, Yu Chen moved away from the silver chain, then groped in the dark to the huge iron door.

Taking the advantage when the monster had not attacked him, Yu Chen clenched the iron door with both hands.

The last time Yu Chen conducted an experiment to see if he could open the iron door was when he was at the tenth level of the second realm.

Now, Yu Chen was already at the tenth level of the third realm.

The terrifying difference in cultivation gave Yu Chen great confidence. Unfortunately… The steel door was the same as before.

Perhaps the Blood Demon had been monitoring Yu Chen’s movements, so its voice reached his ears.

The Blood Demon said, ‘Don’t waste your energy.’

‘This door becomes stronger when it’s against the strong and weak when it’s against the weak. Even a fifth-realm cultivator can’t open it, let alone you.’

‘Besides, you can’t possibly think that you have extraordinary strength just because you have the ‘Strength God’ talent, can you?’

‘To tell you the truth, you’re still a bit green.’

‘The ‘Strength God’ talent increases the multiplier of your strength, but it does not increase the foundation of your strength.’

‘If you want to open the iron cage, you need to have more than ten thousand times the strength of cultivators of the same level as you.’

‘Let me make this easier to understand. Your original strength is ten. After the ‘Strength God’ increased it by a thousand times, your strength has become ten thousand.’

‘And if you want to open the iron cage, you need to increase your basic strength from ten to a hundred.’

‘Do you understand what I’m saying?’

Yu Chen’s heart skipped a beat at the Blood Demon’s words.

That’s right!

This was like an online game.

The current Yu Chen had such a high increase in strength. Although the increase in his strength looked terrifying, his original strength was not ideal. If another cultivator who cultivated the strength cultivation method awakened the ‘Strength God’ talent, the effect would definitely be many times greater than Yu Chen’s.

Yu Chen’s base strength was ten.

A thousand times ten was 10,000.

If Yuchen thought of a way to increase his strength base to 100, the ‘Strength God’ could increase Yu Chen’s strength to 100,000.

This was probably the reason why he had obtained such a terrifying increase in strength after climbing the Heavenly Staircase.

‘I’ve found the reason. It seems that when I’m free, I need to get Xi Ling to help me to specially cultivate my physical cultivation in the Heavenly Staircase.’

Yu Chen thought to himself and turned around to punch again.

“Awoo…”

The monster’s scream was rather loud, directly attracting the attention of the prison guard outside the iron door.

The prison guard stared coldly into the darkness and said, “Loathsome prisoner. No matter how many monsters you defeat, they will keep coming until they tear you apart.”

What happened next, however, shocked him.

The sound of densely packed fists and feet came from the darkness, followed by the painful roars of many monsters.

“What on earth?”

The prison guard felt a chill. Ordinary prisoners could only withstand a few waves of monster attacks, but this person…

No… it had to be an illusion. Maybe it was a coincidence.

When the prisoner ran out of power, it would be time for him to be quietly tortured.

However, as time passed, Yu Chen did not fall again even after defeating dozens of waves of monsters.

Yu Chen stretched his body. A popping sound came from his joints.

“These monsters don’t look like they can hurt me anymore.”

“Hey, are there any stronger monsters? Come play with me.”

His voice was hoarse, like a beast’s growl.

The prison guard swallowed and instinctively moved away from the steel door.

The next second, a hand suddenly poked out of the metal door.

Due to the long period of darkness, his skin had become extremely pale and lifeless.

However, the very obvious muscle lines on the arm proved that the owner of the arm still had strength.

The prison guard stared at the arm in horror. He covered his mouth with his hand to stop himself from throwing up.

As Yu Chen’s flesh had been torn open by the monster for a long time, there was no longer a piece of unscathed flesh on his body.

His pale skin was crisscrossed with many hideous wounds that could not be healed. It was like a part of a malicious ghost’s body, making one shudder.

The prison guard could no longer stand it. He turned slowly and ran outside.

Behind him, Yu Chen instructed, “Hey, report the situation here to your superior. Tell him that someone is dissatisfied with the intensity of the punishment and wants to transfer to another cage!”

When the prison guard heard Yu Chen’s voice, he fled even faster due to fear.
