Chapter 151: Promoted to Nebula Stage!

“Where am I…” Running forward, as soon as Jiang Xiao entered the deeper part of the forest, he found that he had lost track of his direction. There were lots of roaring continuously coming from the left. Could it be that it had crumbled at the tunnel?

Han Jiangxue and the rest should be there?

Jiang Xiao was smacked away by the Ape Ghoul King, but fortunately, he landed in the forest and not in the previous world he came from.

Jiang Xiao continuously flew around the sky and of course, he had no idea which direction he was going in.

The voices coming from the left seemed to be larger. Jiang Xiao reckoned that it was the location where his team members landed. Five Ape Ghouls had already rushed forth behind Jiang Xiao.

The five ghouls shouldn’t have been satiated yet. Hence, they jumped over the bald man’s corpse and immediately hunted Jiang Xiao down.

While Jiang Xiao was scurrying away, he could detect the Star Power within his body.

He felt that his body was slowly getting emptied out.

Jiang Xiao’s Star Beads had already been given to the team and he was digging madly just now, so the seven Savage Sorceress Star Beads were also absorbed completely.

At this moment, Jiang Xiao no longer had any supplements.

What do I do now?

Do I have to have to use the upgrade restoration method?

Jiang Xiao was really reluctant to use his Skill Points to upgrade his Star Power because his Star Power had already surpassed his physical quality, and that was unfavorable for his physical growth.

It would be a waste of Skill Points whenever Jiang Xiao used it to upgrade his Star Power level, especially since Jiang Xiao’s Star Power level was only at the initial stages.

During the critical juncture in the snowfield previously, Jiang Xiao had no choice but to use his Skill Points to upgrade his Star Power to its maximum.

And this time, it seemed…

Jiang Xiao leaped up and rolled towards the left when an Ape Ghoul extended its claws and leaped towards him.

The physical quality of the Ape Ghoul was far better than that of Jiang Xiao’s. Hence, it was only a matter of time before it would catch up with Jiang Xiao.

Since he couldn’t run away, Jiang Xiao thought of hiding in the tree, but he was being chased by Ape Ghouls flying from tree to tree that were more than a hundred times as agile as him.

The attack was almost lethal and extremely dangerous!

Jiang Xiao felt a cold chill down his spine and he began to get goosebumps.

If he were to get scratched by those claws, the consequences would be dire.

Jiang Xiao would never forget the fate of the bald man and the female Awakened.

Their deaths did not give Jiang Xiao any Skill Points. Although Jiang Xiao managed to stop them with his Blessing, the Ape Ghouls were the ones that killed them.

Jiang Xiao, who had rolled and gotten up, frantically turned around and put up his defense. The huge fist of the Ape Ghoul was smashed against the giant wooden sword, causing the Star Power covering the blade to be smashed apart by the Ape Ghoul’s punch.

Jiang Xiao couldn’t put his misery into words. On one hand, his hands had turned numb because of Ape Ghoul’s heavy punch, which also caused him to be blown backward.

On the other hand, no matter how wide and thick the Star Power-covered wooden blade was, it still could not withstand the impact by the Ape Ghoul’s punches.

Jiang Xiao blocked the punch thrown by the Ape Ghoul and stomped his right foot forcefully before his body stopped sliding backward. He then lunged forward and struck his wooden blade against the Ape Ghoul’s claws!

Bang!

The rich Green Glow covering the tip of the blade caused the Ape Ghoul to be blasted away!

Gold Quality Green Glow!

However, Jiang Xiao was not in the least bit happy at all, because another Ape Ghoul had rushed forth and there seemed to be no break in between at all.

Jiang Xiao’s solid basic skills were now being displayed and, with a flick of the wrist, the blade of the knife slid down.

Bang!

Another Ape Ghoul was smacked away. Even though they were clad in thick fur and had bones as strong and hard as steel, Jiang Xiao still managed to stab a hold on the Ape Ghoul’s shoulder with his Green Glow-covered wooden sword!

Not only did the Gold Quality Green Glow cause repelling effects, but it also resulted in powerful blows!

Although the wooden sword was made of wood, it was still a sword!

What made Jiang Xiao feel miserable was the fact that the three Ape Ghouls were swarming forward while his Star Power slowly depleted.

However…

–

Star Power Upgrade!

Star Power: Nebula Stage Level 0!

–

After adding his Skill Points, Jiang Xiao suddenly felt a burst of Star Power within him.

It was not an increase in the mini levels, but an actual qualitative change from the Stardust Stage to the Nebula Stage!

The Star Power poured out of his fists like a river and spread outwards around him.

Meanwhile, the three Ape Ghouls that had leaped up and been about to rush towards him were actually flipped over because of the fluctuations in Star Power.

That should have been a good time to escape, but Jiang Xiao stayed in place.

It was not that he wanted to put on a brave front, but actually, it was because he really couldn’t move.

At the next moment, the dreamy Big Dipper Star Map slowly emerged on Jiang Xiao’s body again after several days.

A few star slots were lit up—three Silver Quality Star Techniques and one Gold Quality. They were particularly eye-catching.

The Star Power that connected to the Star Map and formed the background was no longer in the form of specks of stardust. It had become a thin cloud.

The stardust condensed into a cloud and rippled in the dreamy Big Dipper Star Map.

Clusters of thin nebula continuously connected the nine star slots together to form an entire piece. In the end, the Nebula Star Map was displayed.

Jiang Xiao slowly opened his eyes and he could sense the Star Power surging into his body, making him feel pleasure from head to toe. It was almost as good as a Blessing.

Hmm…

Jiang Xiao, who had slowly recovered from the shock, carefully observed his surroundings, only to discover that the two Ape Ghouls had stopped in their tracks. Jiang Xiao initially wanted to give them a shock and make a Hail Mary effort.

However, he did not expect that another group of Ape Ghouls would rush forward.

Oh my god!

This is really exciting!

Who’s the scared one?

As an Awakened who had entered the Nebula Stage, he did not choose to go toe-to-toe against the Ape Ghoul. Instead… he turned around and scurried away without hesitation!

Duh, of course he had to run.

Not only did Jiang Xiao want to run, but he also had to flee with Jiang Xiao.

No, there was no mistake in that question.

The Ape Ghoul saw another Jiang Xiao jumping out of Jiang Xiao’s body.

Two Jiang Xiaos, one on the left and one on the right.

The group of Ape Ghouls did not hesitate or follow any orders. Instead, they simply chased after Jiang Xiao based on instincts.

Unfortunately, four of the eight Ape Ghouls chased after the Jiang Xiao on the right.

And eight chased the Jiang Xiao on the left.

While dragging his sword along, Jiang Xiao scurried fast and the shadows on his body overlapped, after which another Jiang Xiao abruptly appeared again. The two Jiang Xiaos began scurrying forward.

The eight Ape Ghouls behind him began to split up again.

It turns out, this is the most useful survival tactic?

Jiang Xiao thought to himself in glee. Since there were only three Ape Ghouls behind him now, he cast another shot of “Decoy” and the two Jiang Xiaos split up again.

To Jiang Xiao’s surprise, the Decoy version of Jiang Xiao was caught by the group of Ape Ghouls.

They did not chase from behind and instead, stopped Jiang Xiao from the front!

Bang!

The moment the Ape Ghouls’ claws pierced Jiang Xiao’s body, Jiang Xiao’s Decoy was suddenly shattered. The Ape Ghouls then collided one after another like heavy screeching tanks that could not stop.

“Damn it… am I supposed to repent here now too?” Jiang Xiao suddenly stopped in his tracks because a group of Ape Ghouls had surrounded him.

Social animals are indeed very disgusting.

If it were a group of White Ghouls, Jiang Xiao would probably still be able to fight them, but it was a group of Ape Ghouls…

Creatures of Brass Quality and those of Silver Quality did not belong on the same level at all!

Jiang Xiao was dejected to see how large, buff, muscular, menacing and intimidating they were.

Within the few seconds that Jiang Xiao had stopped, he was already surrounded.

Before Jiang Xiao could even make any solemn swears or get ready, several Ape Ghouls had already leaped at him.

When Jiang Xiao was on the brink of death, he held the handle of his sword with both hands, twirled the two-meter-long sword, and scattered the intense Green Glow everywhere. He then spun around.

Revolve!

Leap!

I’ll close my eyes!

I’ll become invisible!

Are you intoxicated yet!?!

…

Bang!

An Ape Ghoul pinned Jiang Xiao onto the ground!

Uh, my shoulder hurts…

Oh~ Mommy, why is reality different from the nursery rhymes?
