"...Intuitive Snipe (A Tier Two Skill that develops a shooting intuition after accumulating a certain number of snipes.

Solidify: 200 Merit Points
Precise Throw Level 2 (An upgraded version of Precise Throw. It increases accuracy on top of the basic throwing skill, allowing for incredibly refined use of thrown objects.

Solidify: 400 Merit Points
Power Mountain Seal Level 5, Power Mountain·Stacking Waves (Allows for the superposition of multiple Power Mountain Seals, stacking their different special effects up to a maximum of 5 layers, greatly increasing destructive power.)
Solidify: 600 Merit Points
"
Fang Zhen saw that while there were relatively few abilities he could solidify this time, they were all the cream of the crop.
For example, upgrading the Power Mountain Seal to Level 5 without any experience, using only Merit Points, might cost over 2,000 Merit Points. But this time, he could solidify it directly for just 600 Merit Points.
Without hesitation, Fang Zhen solidified all of these abilities.
With that, the settlement screen closed.
Fang Zhen then received another prompt from the Dungeon Life game.
He had permanently obtained temporary access to the Curse Seal World. He could spend 100 Merit Points to enter the Curse Seal World for 10 days.
As for his new items, the Flying Lotus was rated as Elite 4-Star, the Thunder Spear was rated Elite 6-Star, and the Sun-shooting Longbow was rated Elite 5-Star.
Along with the Sun-shooting Longbow, Fang Zhen also received 5 Enchanted Iron Arrows gifted by Anglo.
These long, black iron arrows could actually be enchanted, and their tips could be coated with the Blood Burst Secret Medicine.
Sniper rifle bullets couldn’t be coated with the Blood Burst Secret Medicine. The moment the gun was fired, the bullet’s temperature became too high, and the gunpowder reaction would destroy the medicine’s lethality and destructive power against aberrations.
Enchanted longbow arrows, however, were a different story. They weren’t subject to the destructive effects of gunpowder and muzzle heat. Although they would heat up from air friction, the Blood Burst Secret Medicine would still retain its potency.
The black iron arrowheads themselves were inscribed with special runes for effects like Shatter and Armor-piercing, which greatly enhanced the arrow’s destructive power and lethality.
Fang Zhen examined the black iron arrows and carefully identified their material.
He discovered that the material was actually quite ordinary—just high-quality refined iron.
He planned to forge some long arrows from titanium or manganese steel alloys in modern society, then send them to the Curse Seal World for alchemy and Rune Carving.
This way, he could unleash even more of the Sun-shooting Longbow’s power and use the Blood Burst Secret Medicine for special additional attacks against aberrations.
Fang Zhen then looked at his own attributes for a moment and allocated his two free attribute points to Spiritual Power, resulting in a comprehensive boost.
When his Spirit surpassed 20 points, Fang Zhen’s mind suddenly became crystal clear, and his spirit felt exceptionally lucid.
Suddenly, a thought crossed his mind. He stared intently at a gel pen on his computer desk.
To his surprise, the gel pen began to tremble slightly under the focus of his will, swaying from side to side as if controlled by some unseen force.
Fang Zhen’s eyes lit up.
This gel pen was a perfectly ordinary object, not like the special metal of the Flying Lotus disc that could respond to Spiritual Power.
’The gel pen moved. What does that mean?’
It meant that after his Spirit surpassed 20, he had actually gained a degree of telekinesis. He could even manipulate ordinary objects.
Fang Zhen immediately thought of a peculiar application.
’If I wanted to kill someone in the real world,’ he thought, ’I wouldn’t even have to lift a finger. Couldn’t I just use my Spiritual Power to rupture their cerebral blood vessels?’
Cerebral blood vessels were incredibly fragile, after all. It would probably take only half the force he used to move the pen, or even less, to destroy some of the blood vessels in the brain.
If he did that, the effect would be like a cerebral hemorrhage or a stroke. The target would just collapse suddenly.
No one would ever be able to figure out what happened, even if they investigated. ƒrēewebnovel.com
Fang Zhen’s power had increased immensely.
’This ability to kill with telekinesis—I might not use it, but I can’t afford not to have it.’
’After all, having a blade and choosing not to use it is a choice. Not having a blade at all means you’re just relying on your opponent’s mercy.’
Fang Zhen didn’t like being so passive.
Fang Zhen’s Strength, Spirit, Agility, Constitution, and Source Power attributes had all exceeded 20 points.
Reaching 21 Strength unlocked a special effect: a massive increase in his instantaneous explosive power.
On top of his base strength, Fang Zhen could now unleash over 200% of his power for a considerable period.
It seemed to be another effect, separate from an adrenaline rush.
At his current strength, even without using curse seals like the Power Mountain Seal, he could grab and throw a sedan with his bare hands just by exerting 200% of his own power.
Increasing his Agility to 20 enhanced the precision and speed of his reactions and greatly heightened his perception of time.
Once it reached this threshold, he gained a peculiar passive skill: the ability to perceive time as if it were slowing down, to a certain extent.
