Chapter 30 - 30: Options
Vesa was speechless; Alex wasn't wrong.
One of the uses of life force would indeed allow them to regenerate their bodies, even if their heads were blasted away.
But this wasn't a game; Vesa hadn't told them this because she worried that Alex and Mingyue might abuse the ability and end up with mental trauma instead.
Facing death wasn't a simple thing.
Even the past Progenitor went through a phase of madness after being killed for the first time.
The darkness, the fear, and the terror that came afterward made him a cruel tyrant for many centuries before he returned to normal.
Alex fell silent.
He didn't have a problem going crazy, dying over and over again, to help his sister.
But that didn't mean he could just bring Mingyue into that hell with him.
It didn't take long for Alex to reach the facility again.
Emily was now lying on the bed, her face still pale; only the middle to the tip of her hair remained golden, while the rest had turned white.
Looking at her condition, Alex's hands clenched into fists.
He now used his ability at maximum capacity, calculating every possibility and the best way to cure Emily.
The first option was using the new cultivation technique, but it was too risky, and the result wasn't guaranteed.
The second option was
"I know what I'm doing, Vesa.
Just look for the next target that meets my criteria."
Alex had calculated many possibilities; he could have actually evaded the tiger's faster attack, but in that case, his body was still not strong enough to launch a counterattack after dodging, which would have prolonged the battle.
That's why he decided to throw his arm away; as the tiger bit into it, he smashed its head with the Warhammer, turning it into a pancake.
His priority now was to fill the life force energy as fast as possible.
Even though the method was brutal and filled with pain, right now, Alex was filled with adrenaline.
With Emily's current situation, he couldn't care less.
Lifeforce: 980/1,200
As he waited for Vesa to find the next target, Alex sat on the ground in the lotus position and started absorbing more crystals, this time taking in two energies simultaneously.
He spread mana to his spine as qi coated with mana weaved through the muscles on his back, waist, and arms.
Even though this messed up the sequence he had planned, Alex was now in dire need of growing quickly in strength.
There were no problems when he transformed his spine, but when the qi started weaving through his muscles, he could feel like every cell was being inflated roughly.
The pain was even more intense compared to when he got his arm torn off, not to mention he did it to all three parts at once.
Alex could feel like his muscle fibers were being sewn anew, becoming more compressed and filled with more power.
After a few minutes that felt like an eternity, Alex stood up.
Swish, swoosh, he started swinging the hammer left and right, with speed faster than before.
BAM!
He crashed it into the ground, creating a new deep crater.
Alex then turned his gaze, looking at the dead tiger's body.
His eyes glinted red, and his body turned into green particles that floated through the air toward him.
