From Abyssal Invasion to Bursting Stars with a Single Sword-Chapter 94 - 88: Second Transition Class, Corpse Bone Bird

After destroying the Evil God's Finger, Lu Heng finally let out a long sigh of relief, having resolved the issue, and also obtained a clump of Divine Attribute Source Material.

Looking back at his last life, he was grateful that he had dealt with the descent of the Evil God upon Blue Star earlier than before.

In just half a month, Fei Zhijie had already grown blood-sucking tentacles all over his body.

Had he been half a month later, Fei would have completely transformed into a mountain of flesh covered in tentacles, ravaging the city and draining the life of all he encountered.

In his last life, the Evil God Barton had nearly devoured a city's worth of humans before being driven back to the Abyss by nuclear missiles.

Gao Zhitin crouched by the roadside, staring at the "monster" covered in tentacles before him, feeling a stirring in his stomach and almost vomiting.

He couldn't imagine that such a terrifying "monster" could actually be killed by humans.

Moreover, a single person had single-handedly disposed of this "monster," so quickly that they didn't even arrive at the scene in time before the battle had concluded.

When he turned his head to look at that person, his eyes were filled with surprise and a hint of admiration.

At that moment, he finally understood his master's saying, that there will always be some things that are beyond the reach of the law, and only morality can constrain them.

Before the Abyss Descent, such people existed, those at the top of the power hierarchy who were already beyond the reach of the law and only fell in power struggles.

Now, times had changed, bringing forth another group, those at the peak of Strength, who were also beyond the confines of order.

...

The terrorist incident at the West Bay Resort Hotel caused a severe shock in the locale.

Lu Heng didn't want to be detained and questioned by the local Siam police, so he left the scene before they arrived and took an early flight back home the next morning.

After returning home, Lu Heng resumed a carefree life, with everything handed to him on a silver platter.

Having been away for many days, Li Xiuyun was worried; seeing her son return filled her with joy, and she served all her best dishes on the table.

That evening during dinner.

The news was playing on TV.

There had been an increasing number of demon-related news broadcasts in recent times.

All sorts of bizarre incidents, whose truths were untraceable, were also categorized as demon-related.

At this moment, the TV was broadcasting another piece of news.

The news was about the discovery of numerous large oceanic creatures' corpses in the Coastal area's offshore waters.

Some were whales, others were sharks.

The TV showed footage shot by reporters—many oceanic creatures floating on the sea surface, which looked abnormal to viewers.

This 𝓬ontent is taken from freeweɓnovel.cѳm.

Moreover, some of these dead oceanic creatures were intact, some had their innards eaten away, and others were left with only skeletons.

While reporting, the journalist mentioned that a month ago, Gardenia Beach had seen an outbreak of Abyss Tide Worms, then speculated whether these dead oceanic creatures could be related to the Abyss Tide Worms.

Hearing the news, Lu Heng looked back at the TV, raised his eyebrows, and remembered what this event was about.

These widespread deaths among oceanic creatures had nothing to do with the Abyss Tide Worms.

Moreover, the mother of the Abyss Tide Worms had been killed, and the danger of the Abyss Tide Worms had long been resolved.

This time, the mass death of oceanic creatures was due to a different incident.

And this incident would yield something very important.

Lu Heng hadn't finished his meal, but he stood up with his bowl in hand and walked to the TV, continuing to eat as he watched.

"What are you looking at? You're not even eating properly," Li Xiuyun asked.

"Just watching the news," Lu Heng responded afterward.

On the TV, the camera was filming a dead blue whale, its abdomen cut open, its innards gone, exposing the bones within the abdominal cavity.

The reporter's tone was very shocked, describing the scene with exaggerated emphasis.

Having seen the news, Lu Heng quickly finished his meal and then returned to his room to write and draw in his notebook, recording the information he remembered.

Two pieces of information were most important about this incident.

First, the reason for the deaths of the large sea creatures was the appearance of a Corpse Bone Bird in the open sea.

It was called a Corpse Bone Bird simply because its shape somewhat resembled that of a bird, with wings, but it had nothing to do with actual birds.

These large sea creatures were eaten by the Corpse Bone Bird.

Second, if things were the same as in his previous life, this incident would not only feature Corpse Bone Birds but also another powerful Abyss Creature.

This Abyss Creature carried a Second Transition Class Source Material [Swordsman].

The power Lu Heng currently possessed was very compatible with this Class, and if he could obtain this Class Source Material, it would greatly enhance him.

However, advancement in Class is not entirely fixed; during the Second Transition, the nature of the original Class could cause changes to occur.

This means that [Swordsman] and [Shadow Walker] might merge into a new Class.

A year after the Abyss Descent, the Superpower User community would gradually formulate the formulae for Class fusion.

For instance: [Defender]+[Knight]=[Guardian Knight]

Since each Class has varying levels of strength, a formula that can produce a strong Class is often sought after by Superpower Users.

This also means that powerful Class Source Materials become the target of contention among many Superpower Users.

However, Class fusion is not guaranteed to happen, as some Classes have strong exclusivity.

And typically, exclusivity is a feature of the stronger Classes.

Lu Heng now faced a problem; because no one in his previous life had obtained the hidden Class [Shadow Walker], there was no existing formula for Class fusion to apply.

But based on experience, fusing two high-Combat Power Classes usually resulted in a sum that, even if not greater than the individual parts, would not be much weaker.

Therefore, without knowing the fusion formula, choosing strong Class Source Material that suits one's powers was generally not a mistake.

Lu Heng's swordsmanship had already reached the In-depth Level, and his Training Level was over halfway practiced, not far from the next Sword Skill Realm.

So, the [Swordsman] Class was very appropriate.

The Source Material for [Swordsman] was not dropped by the Corpse Bone Bird, but by another powerful presence from the Abyss that bred the Corpse Bone Bird.

Thus, to acquire the [Swordsman] Source Material, one will need to contend not only with the Corpse Bone Bird but also with that powerful presence.

Currently, humans had not yet discovered the Corpse Bone Bird, only seeing the dead sea creatures on the surface.

In about half a month, the Corpse Bone Bird would be discovered by humans.

Lu Heng assessed his own Combat Power and realized he was not ready to handle this event, so he needed to improve quickly.

Moreover, this was not an event one could handle alone; he needed other help.

Lu Heng laid out a plan to enhance his Combat Power in all aspects, then took out his phone and texted Lin Zeyu and Su Muyu to meet tomorrow night at Quenching Castle.

After sending the messages, Lu Heng took out the [Divine Attribute Source Material], ready to begin the first step of enhancement.
