Chapter 72: A Rapid Harvest and Upgrade

Liu Yan rushed to the scene. Two Fierce Beasts corpses, and five Awakened ones.

There were more Awakened dead than the Fierce Beasts. It was truly ironic.

Yet, the survival of the fittest was something quite natural.

This didn’t matter to Liu Yan. He went forward and began the divine extraction process.

Over the last three days, Liu Yan could sense the ongoing battle outside through the Shadow Wolf and his Omniscient Insight. However, he kept his head low and did nothing.

He didn’t take any action to begin divine extraction in order to keep himself safe.

Now that Liu Yan could finally start harvesting and begin divine extraction, he was going to harvest as much as he could at once.

[Divine Extraction of a Silver-Horned Rhinoceros (Level 12 of D-Grade) has been successful. Congratulations, you have obtained: Strength +105, Vitality +178, Energy +32, Combat Experience +300!]

[Divine Extraction of a Silver-Green Sand Beast (Level 11of D-Grade) has been successful. Congratulations, you have obtained: Strength +95, Agility +145, Adaptability +41, Combat Experience +280!]

[Divine Extraction of an Awakened’s corpse has been successful. Obtained lethal poison (D-Grade). Fusion successful, 5% increase in Poison Control (B-Grade)!]

[Divine Extraction of an Awakened’s corpse has been successful. Obtained speed (D-Grade). Fusion successful, 3% increase in Shadow Steps (A-Grade)!]

..

After all seven divine extractions, Liu Yan tallied up his harvest.

The Awakened were not particularly talented and their talent grades were average. This did not provide Liu Yan with any new skills, but did help to boost his current ones.

But their levels weren’t high, so the boost was not significant.

This was similar to what Liu Yan had expected.

The Awakened with strong abilities wouldn’t normally die here, would they?

Those who lay dead here were probably only of average ability.

Although the individual gains were meagre, the five combined gains were decent, and were much better than nothing.

In any case, Liu Yan didn’t exert much energy. He only used a bit of divine extraction to increase his strength. In fact, Liu Yan’s abilities had improved very quickly compared to the other Awakened,

As for the harvest from the two fierce beast corpses, Liu Yan was somewhat surprised.

Extracting skills from fierce beasts normally only happened if the beasts were highly talented. It would be difficult for Liu Yan to extract any skills from fierce beasts with middling or low levels of talent. This was something that Liu Yan understood long ago.

However, extracting skills from the fierce beast corpses would give Liu Yan a large amount of attributes.

Even though these fierce beasts were not very talented, their levels were quite good, so Liu Yan could gain a decent number of attributes.

From these two fierce beasts, Liu Yan strengthened himself by about 5%. Overall, it was not bad.

What made Liu Yan somewhat surprised was that when extracting the corpses of fierce beasts, one could actually obtain EXP, and quite a significant amount of EXP.

In the previous divine extraction, even the corpses of fierce beasts with high talent levels didn’t give Liu Yan EXP.

Only occasionally did Liu Yan get a very small amount of EXP.

But now, he could get EXP, and it was quite a lot. It was almost the same EXP as killing these fierce beasts.

This surprised Liu Yan, but he was happy.

After some thinking, Liu Yan could guess why. It was probably the divine extraction that changed things.

Now, he only needed to extract a part of the fierce beast’s gene fragment to obtain something positive.

However, after extracting the fierce beast’s corpse, Liu Yan could gain something more. There was also EXP value in addition to a large number of attributes.

In an instant, Liu Yan was happy.

In the previous two floors of the tower, Liu Yan’s grade didn’t increase quickly although he grow much stronger.

The main reason was that Liu Yan had spent most of his time and energy on using the divine extraction to rapidly increase his strength. As a result, he did not have much time to kill a large number of fierce beasts to obtain EXP.

Now that the divine extraction was fully advanced, Liu Yan did not need to fight and kill the fierce beasts He only needed to use the divine extraction to extract the fierce beast’s corpse in order to obtain a considerable amount of EXP.

This meant that Liu Yan would be able to make use of situations better, where other people put in the hard work to kill the fierce beasts, and he just needed to conduct divine extraction of the corpse to gain EXP.

Other than that, Liu Yan estimated that if he were to kill the fierce beast, he would also gain double the amount of EXP. One from killing the fierce beast, and one from the divine extraction of the fierce beast’s corpse. He would level up so quickly!

Once he understood this point, Liu Yan moved quickly.

Because Liu Yan had a relatively high agility attribute, he was much faster than Murong Xue and Chu Long. Additionally, he also gained the Shadow Step skill.

Therefore, Liu Yan was actually able to complete the divine extraction of the Awakened and fierce beast corpses on his route before going to the route Murong Xue and Chu Long were on.

Along the way, Liu Yan continued with the divine extraction from the corpses of fierce beasts and the Awakened. He continued to obtain large amounts of attributes and EX), increasing the power of his own skill.

Occasionally, Liu Yan would also obtain some new skill. However, he was busy with divine extraction and didn’t bother to examine what skills they were exactly. Liu Yan would wait until he had finished harvesting and clearing everything before doing a tally.

However, neither Liu Yan nor Murong Xue and Chu Long, who were on the other side, encountered any Awakened squads that were still alive.

Initially, they wanted to conduct a robbery. They knew that the squads of Awakened that would have survived till now would have a substantial number of Yin Cards on them. The trio would become quite wealthy if they could lay their hands on these Yin Cards.

Occasionally, they would encounter some fierce beast, but these beasts were not strong, so Liu Yan took them down with a single blow.

On Murong Xue and Chu Long’s side, although they couldn’t kill the beasts instantly like Liu Yan, it was easy to deal with the fierce beasts.

The journey was relatively smooth. It wasn’t until noon that the Shadow Wolf communicated telepathically with Liu Yan through their contract. It told Liu Yan that they were in danger and needed support.

Liu Yan hurriedly followed the rough directions given by the Shadow Wolf and rushed over.

Immediately activating his A-Grade skill, Shadow Steps, Liu Yan’s originally swift speed had received a terrifying increase in an instant.

With hardly a shadow on the ground, Liu Yan had already disappeared as he rushed away.

Through his B-Grade skill, Omniscient Insight, Liu Yan easily found Murong Xue and Chu long who were fighting, and rushed to the scene.

He saw Murong Xue fighting with a fierce beast that looked like a leopard, but was several times larger than a normal leopard.

This leopard-looking fierce beast was huge, at least three to four meters tall. It was almost the same size as the twin-headed wolf. Its entire body was black, and it looked extremely fierce.

Liu Yan quickly checked the fierce beast’s information through the smart wristband.

[Dark Cloud Leopard]

Talent Grade: S

Level: 20

..

It was another fierce beast with S-Grade talent, and it was already at level 20!

The Ghost Face Jellyfish from before was also at the S-Grade, but it was only at level 15. Even then, Murong Xue was quite overwhelmed and was unable to defeat it.

During this period of time, although Murong Xue had increased her combat strength, this Dark Cloud Leopard was a S-Grade fierce beast with level 20 potential. Moreover, this Dark Cloud Leopard was a strength-type fierce beast that specialized in close combat, making Murong Xue even less able to deal with it.
