Chapter 512: Chapter 512: Sweat, Tears, and...
After thirty minutes duration of 32 times EXP buff ended, Tang Li Xue lay limply on her bed with a bloated stomach.
"Bleeechh~!!! I... I cannot eat anymore... Urggghhh, my stomach is so uncomfortable... I cannot hold it anymore... System, my EXP and level will not decrease if I puke out all of the royal jellies in my stomach, right?" Tang Li Xue asked with great difficulty.
[Host, do not need to worry. All of the essence from the royal jelly had already been extracted and converted into EXP to strengthen Host.]
[Even if Host vomits all of them out now, it will not affect Host EXP or level at all.]
"All right... That is good... Now, I can... rest easy..." Tang Li Xue muttered while having difficulty breathing.
Despite that, she still chose to hold back with all of her strength since she felt it was inappropriate for a flawless and extremely beautiful girl like her to do something so embarrassing, like vomiting.
"Urrgghh... Then... Can I also stop drinking this royal jelly? I... I also cannot hold on anymore..." Perfect copy asked Tang Li Xue while holding her mouth, so she would not accidentally vomit out.
"The duration of your 2 times EXP buff is still 30 minutes remaining. Just vomit them all out on the toilet first and eat more again until the buff duration is run out!" Tang Li Xue told her perfect copy merciless instruction.
Anyway, it was not her who vomited but only her perfect clone, so it was all right...
"You... you are really a ruthless one... How could you... Urrrbbbhhh~!!!" The perfect copy complained, but before she could scold Tang Li Xue... she hastily dashed toward the bathroom.
.....
...
.
After one hour, the fierce battle between Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy versus royal jelly finally ended.
It was a bloody battle filled with sweat, tears, and... vomit, but Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy finally managed to survive until the end.
This should be one of the hardest battles for Tang Li Xue after she reincarnated into this Immortal World.
Not even her divine abilities, skills, martial arts, Regalia, Little Yaya, Little Loki, Phoenix of Pride, and so on could help her to win this battle.
Tang Li Xue was still lying down on her bed, and she opened her system window to see her current level.
Tang Li Xue was too busy fighting against the royal jelly that she did not have any free time to see her system notification before.
"Fiuhh... Finally... It is over... and my level increased from level 14 to level 29 in one go! Muahahahaha... Urghhh... Ouch, my stomach..." Tang Li Xue laughed excitedly as she jumped down from the bed, but she immediately grimaced in pain, then she quickly sat again on the bed while holding her bloated stomach.
From level 14 to level 29, Tang Li Xue jumped by the full 15 levels, so how could she not feel excited?!
It also means that she got 1500 stat points plus 225 skill points!
There was no meaning in keeping all of these points since Tang Li Xue needed more strength to survive in the Foxes Hunting Festival a few days later, so she decided to use all of these points now!
Strength: 1,900 ---> 2,200
Agility:1,900 ---> 2,500
Toughness: 1,500 --->1,800
Spirit: 1,500 ---> 1,800
Tang Li Xue used all 1500 stat points in one go!
Since her agility has the highest effect thanks to her [Super Speed] passive divine ability, Tang Li Xue decided to put more stat points into it.
A Burst of stinging pain assaulted Tang Li Xue's body and mind again, just like before.
Tang Li Xue curled on her bed while gnashing her pearl white teeth to withstand the tearing pain.
Tang Li Xue felt like her body and mind were forcefully torn apart, then put together again and again.
The unimaginable pain lasted for a few minutes.
After that, Tang Li Xue felt her body was much lighter and full of energy.
Tang Li Xue wiped the cold sweat on her forehead with her sleeve while complaining: "System, can you make me not feel this kind of unbearable pain anymore when I raise my stats in the future? I feel like I almost died again for the second time!"
[Of course, System can do it. Host only needs to pay 1,000 Deity Coins, and System will numb Host's pain nerve, so Host will not feel any more pain in the strengthening process.]
[Does the host wants to turn on this feature, so System will automatically reduce 1,000 Deity Coins in the future strengthening process? Yes/No]
Tang Li Xue jumped as her blood pressure exploded, and she shouted angrily: "NO~!!! You bloodsucking system~! I must pay even for that kind of thing?! Moreover, it is 1000 Deity Coins?! This is clearly extortion!"
After venting her anger by scolding her system for a few minutes, Tang Li Xue calmed down again.
She sat on the bed and thought about what she must do next while muttering: "Sigh... Forget it... Now, I have to spend 580 Skill Points. Which kind of skill should I buy with it?"
Tang Li Xue opened the skill list in her system to see what to buy.
[Fire Elemental Resistance Up], [Water Elemental Resistance Up], [Wind Elemental Resistance Up], [Lightning Elemental Resistance Up], [Light Elemental Resistance Up], and [Darkness Elemental Resistance Up].
Seven elemental resistance skills in total, all priced at 10 Skill Points, so the total was 70 Skill Points.
Tang Li Xue was really tempted to buy them, but she decided to see the other skills first.
There were so many more new skills on the list compared to before after her System got upgraded. It even made Tang Li Xue dizzy.
[Deadly Envenom], [Telekinesis], [Spider Thread], [Demonic Curse], [Metal Skin], [Acid Blood], [Healing Tears], [Fire Breath]...
But of course, these better skills also cost a lot more Skill Points to buy. Their prices ranged from 50 to 200 Skill Points.
Tang Li Xue jumped down from the bed when she saw several divine abilities on the list!
"WOAAHHH~! There are even Divine Abilities for sale in the System now~?! So, I can also buy Divine Abilities using my Skill Points?! Awesome~!!!" Tang Li Xue exclaimed in amazement.
[Earth Prison]: 1,000 Skill Points
[Purifying Light]: 2,000 Skill Points
[Shadow Step]: 3,000 Skill Points
[Weaken Curse Aura]: 4,000 Skill Points
[Petrification Stare]:5,000 Skill Points
[Mind Manipulation]: 6,000 Skill Points
[Unmatched Power]: 10,000 Skill Points
[Unbreakable Defense]: 10,000 Skill Points
.....
Tang Li Xue: "....."
She could not even buy the cheapest Divine Ability!!!
"System, are you kidding me?! You put all of these extremely expensive Divine Abilities only to tease me, right? Since I can only look but cannot buy any of them, right?!" Tang Li Xue coldly said to her System.
[Please, Host do not need to worry. All prices given by the System are absolutely fair.]
[[For example, if Host bought both [Unmatched Power] and [Unbreakable Defense] later. The effect of these two would stack with Host's [Super Speed] divine ability, and the Host would get twelve times the effect from the Strength, Agility, and Toughness stats.]
"TWELVE TIMES?!" Tang Li Xue sucked a deep breath in shock.
[If Host activated all of the active effects from these three divine abilities: [Berserk Power], [Wings of Freedom], and [Immovable Mountain], Host would get seventeen times the effect from the Strength, Agility, and Toughness stats.]
"SEVENTEEN TIMES?!" Tang Li Xue shouted as her breath became heavier.
[That is right, and Host can combine the three of them into one to get a super powerful divine ability!]
"They can even be combined into one?! So amazing~!!!" Tang Li Xue shouted with an amazed expression.
Then Tang Li Xue thought for a moment and commented: "Wait a minute... System, do you really work as a sales now? You sound much more convincing than any Multi Level Marketing (MLM) Sales!"
Tang Li Xue decisively closed the list as she decided to accumulate more Skill Points to buy the ready-made Divine Abilities instead.
[Host can also use Skill Points to upgrade any current Skills and Divine Abilities now. But only [Mastered] level skills that could be upgraded to the higher grade.]
"Eh? I can also use Skill Points to upgrade my divine abilities now?" Tang Li Xue murmured in surprise as she quickly opened her status window and tried to upgrade one of her divine abilities.
[Divine Ability (Sun And Moon Aegis) can be evolved into a higher grade Divine Ability with the cost of 50,000 Skill Points. Do you want to evolve it now? Yes/No]
"50,000 Skill Points?! Why don't you just rob it from the bank?! Errr... I mean, rob it from the System?!" Tang Li Xue sucked a deep breath and scolded while gnashing her pearl-white teeth.
[Thank you Host for your care, but it is impossible for anyone to rob the system.]
After Tang Li Xue calmed down her bad mood, she tried to upgrade her divine abilities one by one to find the lowest price among them.
Unsurprisingly, [Transfiguration: Human Form (Incomplete)] was the cheapest one.
It only needs 250 Skill Points to upgrade.
But Tang Li Xue clearly would not use her precious Skill Points to upgrade this almost useless divine ability.
She could already guess that this incomplete divine ability might evolve into the complete one, but so what if she could hide her fox ears and tail and look 100% like a human now?!
What Tang Li Xue really needed now was the divine ability that could make her stronger so she could survive or even dominate the incoming Foxes Hunting Festival!
The second cheapest one was [All Knowing Eyes (Basic)]. The cost to upgrade it was 1,000 Skill Points.
This divine ability was extremely useful, and Tang Li Xue wanted to upgrade it so badly.
But unfortunately, Tang Li Xue could not afford it since she only has 580 Skill Points now.
The third cheapest upgrade price was one of the earliest divine abilities Tang Li Xue managed to get, [Ethereal Form].
This [Ethereal Form] was also the divine ability that Tang Li Xue used the most until now.
Unfortunately again, Tang Li Xue needs to spend 1,200 Skill Points to upgrade it, so Tang Li Xue also could not afford to upgrade it for now.
Tang Li Xue instantly fell into depression and sadness as she started to complain again: "System, they are still so expensive! Can you give me a discount? How about a 99% discount as the first try upgrade?"
[Host does not need to worry. After the system upgrade, the Host reward for completing the quest will increase several times from now on.]
[Not only Host can randomly trigger the quest by thinking about it, but System will also randomly give some quests from now on.]
[As long as Host diligently completes more quests and saves more Skill Points, Host could definitely upgrade or buy any divine abilities.]
