Chapter 46: The Awakened Closest to God

Sensing an unusual sound behind him, Li Ruran subconsciously exerted force and jumped forward. However, it was already too late. The Bone Whip was so fast that it caught up to Li Ruran, who was jumping in the air, in an instant.

With a “bang,” the Bone Whip suddenly knocked Li Ruran to the ground. Then, many Bone Spurs suddenly split from the Bone Whip, looking like a giant white bone caterpillar. At the top of the Bone Whip, two sharp insect beaks split out and pounced toward Li Ruran’s body.

Seeing this, Xiao Fen shook his head slightly, feeling a sudden wave of despair about the future.

Just then, a dazzling white light suddenly rose.

In the thin dim foggy night, this light appeared extremely piercing. The stimulation caused to Trialists like Xiao Fen, whose senses had become sharper, could be imagined.

Almost the moment he saw this white light, Xiao Fen’s vision went completely white. His brain buzzed, and he could hear nothing. Tears involuntarily streamed from his eyes.

He subconsciously retreated several steps in a row, hiding deep in the room. Even so, his eyes still saw a white space, unable to see anything, unable to free himself from this light.

This was just a normal spirit enhancement, yet it caused such strong damage. If it were a guy with higher spirit, just this light would probably burn the retina directly.

Xiao Fen thought this and shook his head hard, closing his eyes. After a few more seconds, he could vaguely hear sounds from outside. Even at this point, he could not open his eyes. His eyes still felt sore and kept tearing up.

Now he knew the downsides of raising his spirit too high. Not to mention the aftereffects of the potion, even something with such strong stimulation dealt bonus damage to him.

Indeed, raising a single Attribute unilaterally was not a good thing.

Thinking of this, Xiao Fen secretly made up his mind. Using the Gene Points he still had, if he could level up tomorrow, he must supplement his strength and constitution.

Just as Sylvia had said, keep the body as balanced as possible.

While Xiao Fen withdrew from watching the battle, the situation on the battlefield had already changed dramatically. The white light that suddenly appeared on Li Ruran caused damage not only to Xiao Fen but even greater damage to the Bone Whip, which was close at hand.

Accompanying this light was a directional heat impact beam.

This heat impact beam had just left Li Ruran’s clothes. Just the residual heat diffusion behind the beam caused Li Ruran’s clothes to emit a burnt smell.

The air around the beam suddenly expanded due to heat and pushed out in all directions. Looking from above, it was like a circular cloud suddenly appearing. In the center of the cloud was a heat impact beam with a temperature of at least 4000℃.

That huge White Bone Monster was too close to Li Ruran. Almost the moment the beam appeared, it struck this thing that wanted to devour Li Ruran.

Besides heat, the huge impact force carried by the beam knocked this hideous monster high into the air. Then, at a height of about 3 meters, it suddenly exploded. The huge impact force caused a strong wind to blow over the entire block.

That White Bone Monster obviously did not expect Li Ruran to hide such a self-defense item, or perhaps it chose the wrong target.

Would the direct descendant of a large Awakened family enter the Trial World without bringing items to save his life at critical moments?

Such an impact caused the Bone Whip to suffer extreme damage. The entire Bone Whip broke in two from the ground. The section of the Bone Whip in the air burned violently, emitting a sharp hiss, just like a dying snake struggling in the flames.

Li Ruran looked at this scene, a ferocious smile appearing on his lips. He was just about to stand up when he suddenly felt a pain in his foot. He was shocked in his heart and looked down. It was the remaining part of the Bone Whip suddenly extending and piercing through his ankle.

Fortunately, this part of the Bone Whip seemed to lack the ability to devour Trialists. It was merely retaliation for the damage suffered by the upper half of its body. The remaining Bone Whip suddenly stood up, dragging Li Ruran up upside down.

Then, the Bone Whip suddenly exerted force, as if wanting to vent its anger. It swung Li Ruran’s body violently back and forth. With every impact on the ground, one could faintly hear the sound of bones shattering in Li Ruran’s body.

Xiao Fen felt a little better only at this moment. He walked out of the room and just happened to see Li Ruran’s body being swung up again, passing by the vicinity of the second-floor balcony.

Li Ruran was quite tough at this moment. Despite suffering such heavy injuries, he did not make a sound. His eyes were wide open, and he saw Xiao Fen in an instant. He stared dead at Xiao Fen. Even while being swung back and forth, he did not look away.

The anger in his eyes was intense enough to burn the surrounding air, as if all the pain he was suffering now was thanks to Xiao Fen, wishing he could transfer all the pain onto Xiao Fen.

Facing such a silent threat, Xiao Fen felt disdain in his heart. He was wearing a mask and was not afraid of Li Ruran seeing his current appearance.

Moreover, he entered this World as a guest. He had no registration with the Awakened. Without the World Tree’s permission, finding him would be harder than reaching the sky.

He glanced at the other half of the Bone Whip still burning in the sky, then glanced at the Main Quest progress. He suddenly saw a new message appear.

“Traces of Lux, Radiance of Lux Quest, total reward of 8 free queries, currently all used up. Are you willing to consume Gene Points to obtain new information?”

“Note, the more detailed the information, the higher the Gene Points you need to pay.”

“Note, your level cannot access detailed data sealed by Yggdrasil.”

“Please choose the information you need to query carefully.”

Xiao Fen pouted slightly, feeling helpless about the World Tree’s after-the-fact actions. He finally chose to query for a simple understanding of the Main Quest progress.

“You have consumed 200 Gene Points. You now have the right to know the situation of the Trial World Main Quest progress within 5 minutes.”

“Current Main Quest progress, 75%.”

Xiao Fen clenched his fist tightly, celebrating slightly, then turned his head to look outside the room. The Bone Whip burning in the sky had gradually extinguished. Colorful powder constantly appeared, then disappeared into the dark night sky.

Just then, Farrah, who had been quiet for a few minutes, suddenly moved.

Almost in an instant, he had already charged near the Bone Whip. He stepped on the Bone Whip with one foot and suddenly exerted force. The ground suddenly cracked, and the remaining half of the Bone Whip was smashed to pieces.
