Before I Died, I Forcibly Kissed The Heroine

Wang Que’s cultivation technique was rather ordinary, and its grade was probably just at the Golden level. After all, the Dog Clan was only a lower-tier clan, and Wang Que’s status was also very lowly. There were almost no cultivation resources available to him. However, the most important issue was the direction of his cultivation path.

Wang Que was naturally inclined towards martial cultivation, but he had always been practicing Daoist cultivation techniques. It was like having Chen Qingluan, with her exceptional talent, join the Tianji Pavilion; even if her talent was strong, it wouldn’t be of any use without the appropriate environment.

His cultivation path contradicted his innate aptitude, and coupled with the scarcity of resources, he remained stuck at the Foundation Establishment stage unable to break through.

Now, the ferocious beasts within this Black Tower had become an opportunity for his transformation. “Such good luck you have.”

Truly deserving of being recognized as the protagonist by the system. From the Kodo City to here, it seemed like he faced constant danger, but in reality, each time his sharp eyes squinted slightly, he could turn danger into safety.

He indeed had some luck on his side.

“Roar!” Noticing the movement here, several ferocious beasts rushed towards Wang Que.

Wang Que’s arm trembled slightly.

The recent battle had exhausted him, and since there was no spiritual energy here to facilitate a quick recovery, he almost had no strength left to fight. However, he hadn’t given up. His figure flashed and dodged, constantly maneuvering around the beasts.

Surprisingly, they were at a standstill.

Su Shi watched with interest. Although Wang Que’s strength was weak, his reaction speed and combat awareness were not bad. He was rather malleable.

“Roar!”

A male lion opened its large mouth and lunged.

Wang Que wanted to retreat, but his back hit the cold wall. At some point, he had been pushed into a corner.

With no way to retreat, he could only watch as the gaping jaws engulfed him.

“Continue.”

Suddenly, a cold light shot forth.

Wang Que reflexively reached out and grabbed it, feeling the weight in his hand, as if it were a precious water sword. The beast was already right in front of him, and he could even smell its foul breath.

Without much thought, he turned around, climbed the wall, elevated his figure in the gap, and then gripped the hilt with both hands, fiercely thrusting downwards. The sword was incredibly sharp, effortlessly piercing through the beast’s head.

The beast let out a heart-wrenching roar. It writhed while attempting to counterattack with its divine ability.

Wang Que firmly held onto the sword, shouted in anger, and thrust upward with all his might. Blood splattered, and the lion’s head rolled away. The beast was decapitated on the spot.

Clang.

The sword fell to the ground.

Bent over, Wang Que panted heavily, his chest heaving violently like a bellows.

Consecutive and relentless battles had completely drained him. Just as the beasts were about to swarm him, at that moment, the sword on the ground trembled slightly, then rose into the air, cutting down the surrounding beasts one after another, as if mowing grass.

Then, it turned around and fell into the palm of Su Shi’s hand.

Su Shi shook the sword, saying lightly, “Constantly retreating will ultimately lead to death. When faced with imminent death, letting go and giving it your all is the only way out.”

“Thank you, Shengzi Su, I understand,” Wang Shuo said with a hoarse voice, struggling.

Half an incense stick’s time later.

The light on the wall slowly dimmed, and the continuous tide of beasts finally came to a halt.

Bang. As the last ferocious beast fell to the ground, the air regained its tranquility completely.

All the bodies turned into ashes and dissipated, even the blood splattered on the wall vanished without a trace. The scene before them was empty, as if nothing had happened at all.

“Weird, could it have all been an illusion just now?”

Yu Ren’er frowned slightly.

Su Shi shook his head, saying, “It wasn’t an illusion. Those beasts just now should have been manifested by some kind of formation.”

Those beasts had flesh and blood; they were obviously not as simple as illusions.

Moreover, with his incorruptible golden body and a heart as clear as ice, and a will as unyielding as a rock, he could tell at a glance that it wasn’t an illusion.

“This Black Tower seems to have been around for quite a while, but the power of the formation is not weak at all. I suppose it’s because it has absorbed a large amount of demonic energy.”

Su Shi said.

Yu Ren’er was puzzled, “Are you saying that the reason there’s no demonic energy around here is because it’s all been absorbed by this Black Tower?” Su Shi nodded, “Possibly, and this should be the true reason why savage beasts dare not approach.”

Hum.

Just as they were chasing, ripples appeared in the air. The demonic energy dissipated, and streams of brilliant light enveloped the three of them, and dense spiritual energy poured into their bodies.

The spiritual energy that was consumed in the previous battle quickly recovered. Not only that, there was an inexplicable power working on and transforming their meridians and dantian.

This power was mystical, even for Su Shi, it was quite beneficial. It made his recently achieved breakthrough more stable.

“Is this a reward?”

“Could this Black Tower be some sort of inheritance?”

Thinking of the murals on the wall, Su Shi felt that things weren’t that simple.

Wang Que’s complexion became rosy, his injuries were healing, and his body was filled with an unceasing flow of energy.

Crack. The joints made a crisp sound, and his figure suddenly expanded by a circle, muscles flowing like water.

Through the skin, faintly visible were bones as red as branded iron.

Wang Que’s physical talents were being developed bit by bit.

Su Shi’s meridians were clear, his tendons and bones like jade; he had reached a level where the body and Dao were unified.

This power could only make his realm more stable.

But for Wang Que, it was a tremendous opportunity! Wang Que sat cross-legged, his eyes closed tightly, absorbing the energy with great effort.

A prompt sounded in Su Shi’s ear:

【Wang Que’s talent has been triggered, influencing the future plot direction, gaining 20 plot points.】

【By passing the first test of the Locking Demons Tower, influencing the future plot direction, gaining 30 plot points.】

“Locking Demons Tower?”

Su Shi’s eyes flickered. It seems that this is the true name of the Black Tower.

Yu Ren’er sighed regretfully, saying, “It’s a pity, just a little bit more, and I would have broken through.”

“No problem, this is just the first level.”

Su Shi looked towards the stairs, and he saw the invisible energy barrier dissipate. They could now enter the second level of the Locking Demons Tower.

This Locking Demons Tower has a total of twelve levels. I wonder what’s on the higher floors?

“Let’s go, and see what’s upstairs.” Su Shi pulled Yu Ren’er and headed towards the stairs.

Wang Que was still digesting the power, and the second level might be even more dangerous. It would be better for him to stay here and continue his cultivation.

Yu Ren’er blinked her eyes, “Brother Su Shi, your attitude towards him seems quite different.”

In her understanding, although Su Shi wasn’t bad, he certainly wasn’t a kind and virtuous person. He usually displayed a rather indifferent attitude towards outsiders. But he had shown concern for this Dog Clan member on multiple occasions, which inevitably piqued her curiosity.

“Because I’ve gained a lot from him.”

Su Shi said with a smile.

Apart from the tens of thousands of spirit stones and plot points, the value of this Locking Demons Tower alone was immeasurable.

“A destined protagonist?”

“Clearly just a cash machine.” Su Shi’s smile became even brighter.
