Chapter 491: 247 Fierce Bird Fifth Transformation, Heavenly Bird Destruction!_2

The dark red plus sign captured everyone’s attention.

He gazed at it slowly: "Does it require eight potential points?"

After pondering for a moment, he called out softly, "Dark Red."

Instantly, the modifier’s mysterious power descended, fully enveloping the professional panel of the Secret Martial Arts Expert. The stored potential points ticked down, transforming into a vast and pure energy that was infused directly into the Jade Bone Skill.

In the blink of an eye, he had surpassed several years’ worth of training.

His vision, blurry and distorted, lasted for a while before it gradually returned to normal.

Everything became clear again.

[Skill: Jade Bone Skill Second Layer (1/600)]+

Bai Xiao came to his senses, immediately feeling a bone-piercing pain throughout his body, as if countless ants were burrowing and biting everywhere inside.

He maintained his composed, cross-legged position without moving an inch, withstanding all the pain. Slightly furrowing his eyebrows, wisps of white steam began emanating from his body, enshrouding half of the bathroom. The potent medicinal strength in the dense medicinal bath was being absorbed bit by bit, penetrating his skin and muscles, reaching directly to his bones.

Bai Xiao could clearly feel that, despite the pain, his entire skeletal structure was visibly growing more resilient and robust. The bones beneath his flesh expanded slightly, even exuding a faint luminous hue.

As time ticked by, this luminescence took on a hint of crimson. The color deepened and intensified until it resembled hot, molten magma, bursting with vigorous vitality.

Finally, the enhancement ceased.

The medicinal strength in the wooden tub was completely absorbed, leaving only clear water.

"Splash..."

Bai Xiao stepped out slowly, his robust figure standing tall.

He understood that he had reached the second layer of the Jade Bone Skill, the Blood Bone Realm, where the bone marrow’s blood-making capacity would be mystically enhanced. The rapid succession of accelerated stimulations had shrunk years’ worth of blood changes that normally took years to complete into just an hour. Bai Xiao could feel the blood flowing in his veins, as heavy and viscous as lead and mercury, surging powerfully.

With just a thought, he could unleash astounding Qi-Blood.

"Worthy of being the lone second-rank cross-training secret martial I’ve acquired."

"Its effect isn’t comparable to that of any third-rate technique."

Bai Xiao mused to himself.

He extended his arms, throwing a series of punches at high speed, feeling enhancements in every aspect of his body. The flood of memories in his mind made him as proficient in Jade Bone Skill as if he had practiced for years.

Every move, every application, came to him effortlessly.

Bai Xiao quickly finished up and glanced at the modifier.

[Dark Red Modifier]

[Potential Points: 24]

There were still some left, better to use them up than to save them.

But this time, he didn’t continue to enhance the Jade Bone Skill, instead turning his attention to another secret technique. It was none other than the Fierce Bird Secret Technique Fifth Transformation!

"Fifth Transformation, Heavenly Bird Annihilation!"

This was a destructive move, even one that could be described as injuring the enemy a thousand at the cost of self-inflicted eight hundred, requiring a robust physique and Qi-Blood for support. Otherwise, at the moment of unleashing the move, the user would be drained and left weakened. Even upon a successful execution, the muscles and bones of the arms would suffer from terrifying vibration-induced cracks and injuries, taking at least several months to several years to recover. This was personally conveyed to Bai Xiao by the Fierce Bird Sect Master Yan Qi, who spoke from experience.

He had once fought Ximen Chen, the master of the Riversplit Sect, using half a move.

And had to rest at headquarters for half a year thereafter.

Yan Qi told Bai Xiao that Heavenly Bird Annihilation was such a high-end move even among the incomplete remains of the Assassination Fist that it was extremely difficult to master and use. Coupled with its integration into the Fierce Bird Secret Technique’s incomplete parts, the requirements for the user were incredibly high, with severe side effects.

If possible, it was best to use it only as a trump card.

Never to be revealed unless one’s life is in jeopardy.

Otherwise, once used, what followed would be a prolonged period of weakness measured in months. Moreover, lingering injuries in the arms could potentially shake one’s foundation.

However, Bai Xiao concluded from his study of the Fierce Bird Secret Technique and the remnants of Qi Vaporization that the missing part of the Qi Vaporization must contain cultivation techniques specifically to strengthen the arms and mitigate the side effects. Otherwise, why would there be such a self-damaging move as the Heavenly Bird Annihilation?

He sensed that an extremely robust cross-trained body would have a significantly positive effect on the Fierce Bird Fifth Transformation Heavenly Bird Annihilation. This was also why Bai Xiao had prioritized enhancing his Jade Bone Skill by one layer, as Heavenly Bird Annihilation imposed significant strain on the skeleton!

He felt that he could fully attempt to master Heavenly Bird Annihilation.

Particularly in the aftermath, when the Jade Bone Skill was enhanced to the third layer, the Jade Bone Realm, and even more so when it broke through the unprecedented fourth layer with the strength of the Copper Wall Iron Curtain. Maybe this incredibly powerful trump card could be used as a frequently utilized killing blow! Bai Xiao was very ambitious, he could achieve what others could not.

This exceptional talent and extraordinary wisdom should not be wasted!

"Twenty-four potential points, just enough to reach the Five-Transformation Perfection!"

Bai Xiao muttered to himself, his gaze quietly fixed ahead.

The personal panel in his retina displayed quietly.

[Skill: Fierce Bird Secret Technique Fourth Transformation (35/1200)]+

He took a deep breath, his agitated emotions unable to settle no matter what. Bai Xiao simply entered the Pure Heart State, watching with absolute rationality.

"Dark Red, invest all potential points, enhance the Fierce Bird Secret Technique!"

With a thought, a mysterious force enveloped him instantly, the potential points surged in like a tide, rapidly decreasing at a visible speed.

The aura emanating from the Fierce Bird Secret Technique grew increasingly expanding and fierce!

Bai Xiao stood still in the center of the room, motionless.

However, the entire room around him began to shake, as if a violent vibration was brewing and stirring, as if an earthquake had suddenly arrived! The windows rattled, the bedside table collided with the walls, and wall plaster fell.

The water in the teacups seemed to boil, and some items fell down.

"Ah! Earthquake!!!"

"What’s going on? What’s happened?"

"Run, it’s an earthquake!"

Suddenly, noises from other rooms on the fourth floor spread, one after another.

Clearly, this vibration wasn’t confined to Bai Xiao’s room alone, but the entire fourth floor was affected. Even the entire Hanhai Hotel, a five-star building, showed slight shaking.

The source of all this shaking could be traced back to Bai Xiao’s fists.

His arms clenched tightly, his muscles bulging and turning red, as if bearing an unimaginable tremendous pressure. Veins snaked and protruded like little serpents. Finally, on the back of his hands, a sharp and fierce claw mark appeared, platinum-colored, shimmering in the sunlight.

With a flash of light, the vibration engulfing the entire Hanhai Hotel withdrew like ripples on water, making the Iron Claw mark increasingly bright.

"Swish!"

Bai Xiao suddenly opened his eyes, raising his terrifyingly posed arms.

His gaze stared straight ahead, exuding astonishing brilliance.

[Skill: Fierce Bird Secret Technique Five-Transformation (∞/∞)]

[Dark Red Modifier]

[Potential Points: 0]

"Used up all the potential points..."

"The Fierce Bird Fifth Transformation, Heavenly Bird Annihilation, the vibration secret technique, has been achieved!!!"

Bai Xiao felt as if he was holding two bombs in his arms, each with the potential to destroy hundreds of tons, capable of obliterating many things, including the Hanhai Hotel he was currently in. It seemed like with a single sweep of his hand, he could easily erase everything! He wasn’t sure if this was an illusion caused by his power inflation...

But what was certain was that Bai Xiao’s strength had seen a tremendous increase.

Fierce Bird Secret Technique perfected, Five-Transformation fully mastered!

Now, his strength had climbed to an unprecedented peak!
