Chapter 221 Long-Awaited
"Snap! Snap!"
The sound of ice crystals spreading was as dense as rain, and Xu Si dared not be negligent in the slightest with his 'Extreme Cold Storm'.
Under the combined attack of the ice wall and Xu Si's chilling aura, the large number of black water snake phantoms became sluggish and stiff.
His body surface was quickly covered with a frosty white ice shell, and then Xu Si completely froze him.
Looking at these little creatures that looked like doughfish, Xu Si really didn't know how to kill them!
These little gadgets might even split into two, and if they keep splitting, all their efforts will be in vain.
However, compared to Xu Si's worries, the "Crow" flying in mid-air didn't have so many concerns.
It landed directly on the ice, seemed to glance at Xu Si, and then, like eating noodles, swallowed all the little guys that were frozen into popsicles.
Xu Si could even hear the sound of it chewing loudly, it was so crunchy!
Xu Si wouldn't care if the crows ate him, but he couldn't eat them!
However, we can't let the crows eat them all!
It doesn't matter if he eats it, but he needs the 8000 purification points!
As for the Bean Contract?
DouDou is currently only at Sequence 2, and Contract Level 3 is already the limit for her.
There was no other way; we had to resort to that method.
Xu Sixing gathered all the shadows frozen into ice sculptures together.
Ya Ya quickly swallowed the ice sculpture he had just eaten, afraid that Xu Si would try to take food out of his mouth.
Star Festival
Since awakening to Sequence 3, Xu Si has not used this trait.
This was the first time he had ever sacrificed a Sequence 4 body.
I just don't know to what extent the power I can acquire will reach.
If only something weird could happen to him right now.
Seemingly sensing Xu Si's dangerous gaze, Ya Ya cawed twice and fled in panic.
It's just eating scraps, there's really no need for that.
Yesterday he realized who the team leader really was.
[Sacrifice Level 4 Mysterious, Purification Points +8000]
Current purification point: 31970
【Star Offering】Lights up silently, without dazzling brilliance or surging energy.
In an instant, Xu Si felt as if he had been drawn into a vacuum, and then his body became the host of the Blood Sun.
His consciousness seemed to become somewhat ethereal, and his body endured an explosive energy far exceeding what the sequence could contain.
The instinctive punch was the straight punch that Su Su often practiced.
The lake looked as if it had been ripped open.
There was no sound, no light or shadow, and not even a surge of energy.
Everything that blocked the fist was cut off.
The frozen lake surface, the stagnant air, and even the calm lake surface before the ice were all "annihilated" in an instant.
It is not shattering, not evaporating, but being completely erased from the meaning of existence, leaving behind an absolute, chilling nothingness.
The lake surface was instantly cleaved open, creating a hole hundreds of meters long with smooth, mirror-like edges, and no water flowed back in for a long time.
Xu Si hovered in mid-air, maintaining his punching posture.
The crows, frightened, had already flown back over the convoy.
However, the convoy members did not have a clear view; they only saw a blood-red line on the lake surface but could not see the whole picture.
The only ones who could see the whole picture were Ya Ya and Chen Pei.
Sensing that Xu Si was not in a good state, Chen Pei did not choose to disturb him.
Instead, his body solidified on the lake surface not far behind him.
This was also the first time he had truly felt Xu Si's real power.
However, Xu Si was only One-Punch Man for a second.
This punch completely exhausted all his energy, making it difficult for him to even control his sword.
Fortunately, Chen Pei was a good support, and he directly used a stream of water to support Xu Si, giving him a chance to catch his breath.
However, this punch was not without effect.
Those who still had designs on the convoy in the lake chose to retreat.
"How is it?" The boy walked on the water, the water vapor swirling around him, catching Xu Si's falling body.
Xu Si's body was burning hot, as if that punch had completely consumed him.
"I...I'm fine." Xu Si gritted his teeth and squeezed out three words, using the support to steady himself. The scarlet light in his starry eyes dimmed considerably.
"Let's go!" He was exhausted. It was his first time using "Star Sacrifice," and he hadn't expected it to take so much energy.
Fortunately, this trick is really effective against Sequence 4.
"It's fallen, and my sword too!" Xu Si couldn't even use Star Guide now, so he had no strength left to pick up the fallen items and his [Sword of Punishment].
He had been coveting this drop for a long time.
Xu Si didn't need to explain these things; Chen Pei had already taken care of them.
A wisp of steam carried the eerie, black, twisting object that had been submerged beneath the lake's surface, along with the [Sword of Punishment], which was embedded diagonally in an ice crevice, to the shore.
Xu Si's car had fallen behind, and Chen Pei kindly helped drive.
Xu Si laughed as he held the fist-sized object, which was neither gold nor stone, but rather a slowly writhing shadow that was trying to coalesce and then constantly disintegrating.
The last [Time Badge] cost him five figures in purification points, but this time he not only didn't spend any purification points, he also made eight thousand.
That's what business is all about!
[Strange Drop Detected: Heart Knot]
[Item Characteristics: Inertia Field, Infinite Decay, Willpower Collapse]
[Upgrade Option 1: Enhanced Artifact - Heart of Winter]
Description: Hearts can not only connect, but also devour each other; specific characteristics are unknown!
[Upgradeable Solution 2: Curious Object - Heart Knot]
Description: Everyone has unresolved issues. These issues aren't regrets; they're simply unresolved problems. (Note: The one who tied the knot must untie it, and you are that one!)
[Compatible with Upgrade Option 3: Fallen Children Sequence Awakening Potion]
Description: You may not be the protagonist, but he definitely is. (Note: You can't control anyone, including yourself, but he can!)
All three options sound very tempting!
Option 3, in particular, is a natural protagonist, but he can't accept that the protagonist is someone else!
His experiences during this period have taught him one thing countless times: only strength truly belongs to oneself.
After actually using the "Star Sacrifice", he was even more satisfied with his sequence.
This characteristic is extremely rare; he originally thought that he would need to sacrifice his lifespan, sequence, or a part of his body to unleash it, just like the [Time Ring].
But the reality is not so.
Even the strange creatures he captured alive were considered his possessions and could still be sacrificed.
This means he can use this property almost without taking any damage, if we ignore the side effect of energy depletion.
Therefore, he did not intend to exchange for the potion.
Between Sequence 1 and Sequence 2, he actually preferred Sequence 1. The wonders of Sequence 2 were described as vague and didn't sound very powerful, so he didn't want to gamble on them.
And [Heart of Winter] has clearly become his second priority.
It has played a significant role in many situations.
He was also his most reliable helper besides the Sequence.
It should at least be ranked before [Sword of Punishment].
