Seeing the Profound Turtle Bead, Bai Pu couldn't help but think of the Dragon Tiger Pill (middle-grade) he had once consumed, which could significantly enhance the physique attribute.
But the Profound Turtle Bead before him could even enhance the spirit; truly worthy of being the essence of the Profound Turtle.
Bai Pu put away the Profound Turtle Bead, planning to adjust his state before consuming it. If he ate it when in poor condition, it might only add 1 point to all attributes, which would be a waste.
Sitting on the back of the Red-eyed Alligator Turtle, Bai Pu took a slight breather.
"Waiting quietly for the support from the Special Service Bureau is not bad either," he thought to himself.
However, Bai Pu misjudged the gratitude of this big fellow.
After swimming two laps on its back, the Red-eyed Alligator Turtle prepared to flip over with a splash. Naturally, Bai Pu, sitting on top, experienced being catapulted into the air and was about to fall into the green lake below.
Whoosh!
The Red-eyed Alligator Turtle's tail, like a large pipeline, gently swung over, catapulting Bai Pu's body like a baseball, sending him flying out of a hole in the dome!
The strike was soft and did not cause Bai Pu any harm.
However, Bai Pu felt somewhat devastated in his heart.
Wasn't I able to escape?
Once external support arrives, I can directly choose to return to reality, can't I?
Going out now... I still have to face the Awakened of the Superstar Alliance!
And I have been affected by a nerve toxin, with only 75% of my attributes left...
Bai Pu sighed deeply.
However, going out was not entirely a bad thing—within the Demon Abyss, several wanted criminals, Awakened individuals, could be found. Gathering more ironclad evidence of their hiding here could give the Special Service Bureau's operatives a good reason to act.
There was no need to worry about Ghost Leather; this Demon General lost an arm to Bai Pu and even brutally cut off his own leg. Even with demons' strong regenerative abilities, it would take considerable time to regrow limbs.
When Bai Pu emerged from the underground hole, he glanced around the first floor.
The first-floor hall was surrounded by a group of Awakened!
Among them was Owl, his face gloomy, issuing commands.
Seeing Bai Pu, Owl's eyes lit up, and he shouted loudly, "That's Gangxin! Get him! He's been hit by a high-priority toxin, reducing his attributes by half for at least ten minutes!"
The Awakened around him, as if injected with adrenaline, charged forward.
Yet they weren't prepared for Bai Pu waving his hand suddenly in the air, sprinkling a circle of emerald-green water droplets!
In their panic, the nearest group of Awakened was sprinkled with water! Then a chilling prompt appeared to them.
[You have been infiltrated by a nerve toxin. Within 10 seconds, the poison layers will continuously stack up to a maximum of 10 layers.]
[Each layer of toxin effect will reduce your attribute value by 8%. The poison effect lasts for 600 seconds.]
With 10 layers stacked, a full 80% reduction in attributes would result!
This was the dominating aspect of the green lake water, more terrifying than the rising green fog!
Bai Pu deeply acknowledged the dominance of this green lake water, particularly as a Daoist Alchemist, who loved such peculiar potions! While resting on the back of the Red-eyed Alligator Turtle, he used a bottle, which he often used to collect liquid materials, to fill a few bottles.
However, he received a prompt while collecting the water.
This green toxin, derived from a certain Spirit Realm Wonder, could not be preserved long after leaving this environment! Its medicinal properties would fade within 10 minutes, until they disappeared completely.
Bai Pu could only give up collecting more toxin regrettably.
Several Awakened individuals shrieked in fright, retreating at a faster speed than they had approached!
Other Awakened, unaware of the situation, also retreated rapidly.
This was the flaw of the Superstar Alliance's Awakened; without rigorous training, they would rush in for benefits but escape at the sight of danger, just a chaotic group.
Owl cursed angrily, knowing full well what that green liquid was—
Earlier, Owl had reported to "Hidden Snake" when two Demon Generals were chasing Gangxin into the ground floor of the central building, and he had been severely criticized by Hidden Snake.
Hidden Snake informed Owl that the underground space of the central building housed extremely important treasures for the Superstar Alliance, and Gangxin must not get his hands on them!
At the same time, Hidden Snake also informed Owl that there was a terrifying nerve toxin in the underground space with a priority of 10 points, and the toxin would emit mist, permeating the entire underground space, severely reducing the attributes of those poisoned.
Therefore, Owl led a group of low-level Awakened, guarding outside the underground hole!
He fantasized that after the two Demon Generals killed Gangxin, they would definitely leave the underground hole, allowing him to gather people to ambush them when their attributes were greatly reduced.
However, he only awaited Ghost Leather! And it was the Ghost Leather with limbs cut off.
The humiliated Ghost Leather immediately erupted, unleashing an enhanced [Vibrating Sound Break], stunning a bunch of people, and then fled!
Owl's heart thumped with fear, even such a formidable figure as Ghost Leather was forced to flee; could Gangxin still be alive?
He didn't dare to pursue Ghost Leather.
After all, Master Hidden Snake's orders were absolute; if he led people to chase Ghost Leather and let Gangxin escape, he could not explain himself to Master Hidden Snake!
So Owl could only continue guarding the cave entrance.
Seeing a group of people charge up, only to be driven back by Bai Pu's splash of green toxin, Owl was enraged! He immediately shouted, "Everyone use ranged attacks! With so many of us, even if everyone only fires one arrow, it's enough to kill him!"
Even melee Awakened usually practiced a bit of remote shooting specialty, keeping a remote weapon in their storage space, even if its quality is slightly inferior.
After all, some Spirit Realm scenes offer no space for melee survival whatsoever.
Since Bai Pu was a latecomer who hadn't undergone systematic training, naturally, he wasn't proficient in remote shooting.
Swish swish swish swish—
Arrows and bullets shot toward Bai Pu swiftly. Although most were not very powerful, a few Awakened proficient in remote shooting released arrows and bullets at high speed with considerable power!
Even Owl pulled out a black crossbow, gritting his teeth as he shot a crossbow arrow toward Bai Pu.
"What's the situation, only 1 point of damage?"
"You only got 1 point too? Damn, this guy is tough!"
The Awakened expressed their complaints, not aware that Bai Pu's attributes were only reduced by 25%, not halved. His strength was mostly intact.
During this wave of attacks, Bai Pu temporarily switched to Scaly Skin, and combined with his own high armor, these damages were greatly reduced, posing no real threat.
In the weapon system of the Spirit Realm Will, remote weapons like spiritual energy firearms, bows, and crossbows inherently have a slower firing rate, and their attack power is weaker than close combat weapons.
This is considered a balance; otherwise, everyone would train in remote shooting—who wouldn't want to output damage from a safe place rather than risk entering the enemy's melee range?
Bai Pu crouched beside a pillar, bending slightly, leaping with the help of the Wind Slash skill, he pierced through the first floor ceiling, flipping into the second floor.
"He's getting away!" Owl was alarmed. If Bai Pu escaped again, he would find no place for himself in the Superstar Alliance!
Frightened by the terrifying Master Hidden Snake, Owl hurriedly issued orders, "Chase, quick! Alert the second-level encirclement to stop him; at least drive him out of the Demon Abyss!"
Utilizing the leap of Wind Slash, Bai Pu reached the second floor, then crashed through the window to escape.
Landing on the street, a few Awakened, arranged by Owl as the second layer of encirclement, quickly emerged from the alley beside him. Each held a weapon, on full alert.
