Chapter 90: Chapter 88: Blessing in Disguise

Su Yu stepped outside of the cave, breathing in the fresh air of the forest in the morning, looking at the clear dewdrops left on the tree leaves. His state of mind was suddenly without any worries or joys, no sentiment attached. He jerked both his arms, and suddenly, a crisp sound like popping beans resounded from his whole body.

In just one night, the injuries all over his body had completely healed, not even the slightest scar remained.

What’s more, he felt that his body had subtly changed.

The day before, in his intense battle against York, York had frenziedly wrapped them in the bush full of traps. The sharp wooden stakes impaled both York and him, their bodies almost had a thousand holes. York died on the spot while he was luckier. Thanks to Su Yun’s frenzied shouts and his own desperate determination, he managed to survive his brush with death.

Although he survived, the injuries on his body were astonishing. At least twenty sharp wooden stakes had pierced through his body, leaving dozens of bloody transparent holes, which were a ghastly sight to behold.

Luckily, the healing ability of a third-level Black Iron Warrior was incredibly powerful. In just one night, all the transparent blood holes had healed, without a single scar. But as he stretched his arms, he surprisingly heard a crisp, popping sound from within his body.

Su Yu suddenly realized that his body had changed.

"What... is happening?" Su Yu quickly became astonished to find that those areas which were once pierced through, where the transparent bloody holes should have healed up, his subconscious felt as if he had thousands of transparent holes in his body. Now, he made a move with his arms, and these big transparent holes burst forth with crisp sounds.

Then, streams of strange energy rushed into his body from these transparent holes, transforming into Gasification Mysterious Power, forcing its way toward his left arm and chest area to gather. Soon, a vortex of energy had formed in his body.

"This... what is this..."

Gosh! He was stunned beyond belief. This phenomena was really mind-boggling, as if certain points in his body had been opened up, allowing him to absorb the strange energy from the air through invisible holes which then transformed into special power within his body.

Su Yu soon recovered from his state of alarm. He could not explain the cause of these changes. He vaguely guessed it might be some kind of mutation caused by surviving the previous day’s near-fatal injuries.

Su Yu couldn’t figure out what kind of mutation had occurred in his body. He didn’t dwell on it too much but started to earnestly sense the energy absorbed through the perceptual holes, which then transformed into special power within his body. Soon, the gasified special power continuously rumbled and surged, starting to attack the four "gates" within his body.

Su Yu had a subtle intuition that as long as he opened another "gate", he would definitely go through another evolution and obtain even more powerful strength.

However, no matter how powerful the special power in his body was, he still couldn’t budge the "gates". Instead, the special power seemed to expand more and more fiercely, giving him a frightening sense of impending explosion.

"This is bad——" Su Yu suddenly realized that he seemed to have absorbed too much special power, but he was unable to break open the "gates". His body’s "container" for the special power was too small. At this rate, the terrifying special power might just explode his body "container".

"Humph——" Su Yu let out a low roar, black scales surfaced on his left arm and chest. His body’s special power was expanding, and he felt stifled, like he had to let it out. Suddenly, misty white light burst out from the dozens of places on his body where he had previously been pierced by the wooden stakes, followed by all the special power converging in his left arm under Su Yu’s control.

With a deafening "boom", Su Yu suddenly discovered a white steam vortex emerged on his left arm. Following the "boom", the vortex unexpectedly detached from his fist and flew out.

With a "puff", a pile of rocks three meters ahead exploded instantly, the rocks tumbled like they had been struck by a small cannonball.

Su Yu stared in astonishment as the swelling special power in his body gradually subsided. He dared not carelessly use the dozens of transparent holes in his body to absorb energy from the air anymore. This feeling was too terrifying.

"The Tearing Storm... can actually be used like this... it can leave the fist, and fly out like a cannonball? This... this..."

Su Yu stared at the pile of exploded rocks three meters away, his mouth wide open in shock, unable to close it for a long time.

This was a true blessing in disguise. Although these numerous invisible holes in his body couldn’t immediately elevate him to a higher level, these holes were like special power-producing machines, providing him with a steady stream of special power, making his skills more powerful and substantially increasing their force. Even though he was still a third-level Black Iron Warrior, at least, he was half as powerful as he was yesterday.

"The saying is true, one who survives a great disaster is destined to have good fortune...." Su Yu scratched his head, looking the rocks scattered in front of him, thinking that if he had possessed such a terrifying power yesterday, he could have blasted York away before he even got close.

"What’s going on?" A surprised voice came from behind. Su Yu turned around to find Ma Ziye, Qin Jiagui and others rushing out of the stone cave, expressions of astonishment on their faces.

The loud "boom" earlier had awakened them, and they saw Su Yu’s silhouette outside the cave, thinking a monster had shown up again. They rushed out quickly, only to find nothing. They looked at Su Yu in puzzlement, unsure of what he was up to.

Su Yu rubbed his hands, an embarrassed smile on his face. He explained, "Just testing my strength to see if my body has recovered."

Qin Jiagui let out a relieved sigh, but Ma Ziye looked at Su Yu, shaking her head while smiling. "You...." There seemed to a reproach yet also an affection in her voice. She was simply overjoyed that Su Yu was alright.

At that moment, a rant could be heard from the depths of the cave. "Arrgh! How dare you put your smelly feet on my face, ugh..."

After that came Zhao Shichang’s voice, containing a hint of nostalgia. " I was dreaming of going home last night and my dalmatian at home kept licking my feet. It was so ticklish and comfy, it’s been a long time since I felt that. Ah, how I miss it... Yikes... why is there a puddle of saliva on my feet...strange..."

Zhang Zhongmou shivered in disgust, "I... I dreamt about participating in a kissing contest, me and a beauty were kissing for two whole hours and we won the championship... wait, the thing I was kissing wasn’t your... arrgh..." Then Zhang Zhongmou’s voice faded, followed by sounds of retching from within the cave.
