Calculating instance rewards.

Your slaughter points + 20000.

You have successfully passed the promotion instance.

Your level has increased to LV22, mana increased by 24 points.

Attribute points + 400.

This mission's rating is S.

You have obtained A-rank skill: Holy Light Sanction.

You have obtained A-rank skill: Nature's Embrace.

You have obtained title: Mad Skullcrusher.

This time, he obtained a new A-rank skill. Shi Yan looked at the skill description with anticipation.

Holy Light Sanction (A-rank): Has a 10% chance to instantly kill creatures with less than 10% health.

This skill seemed decent, but it wasn't very useful for Shi Yan.

However, it might be useful for picking up scraps, so Shi Yan immediately chose to learn it. A sacred and warm aura entered his body, making him feel warm all over.

He raised his right hand, and a pure white light emanated from it.

“Is this the power of Holy Light?”

He couldn't stop praising it.

At this moment, he could summon this Holy Light from all parts of his body. For a time, his entire being became a luminous figure that no one could look at directly.

After testing, Shi Yan withdrew the Holy Light.

He then looked at the skill description for the other skill reward.

Nature's Embrace (A-rank): Being in nature will greatly enhance all your attributes.

Looking at the skill description, Shi Yan raised an eyebrow.

This skill was interesting. Being in nature could enhance all attributes?

What did “nature” mean?

Shi Yan didn't quite understand this skill yet. After receiving it, he didn't feel any changes in his body.

Perhaps it was because he was not currently in nature.

Shi Yan looked at another reward.

Mad Skullcrusher.

Effect: Headshot damage to enemies increased by 10%.

The effect of this skill was very good. Skills that increase damage by a hundred percent are god-tier and can be used forever.

But why was he called the Mad Skullcrusher? He just preferred to attack the most vital parts of an enemy's body.

Complaining aside, it didn't affect Shi Yan's immediate decision to equip it.

After equipping it, he didn't feel much change, just a more obsessive fondness for striking enemies in the head.

Shi Yan summoned his personal information.

Name: Shi Yan.

Level: LV22.

Mana: 690.

Constitution: 800.

Soul: 751.

Attribute Points: 400.

Then Shi Yan chose to evenly distribute the four hundred attribute points.

Name: Shi Yan.

Level: LV22.

Mana: 690.

Constitution: 976.

Soul: 975.

Attribute Points: 0.

As the attribute points were added to his body and soul all at once, a pleasure dozens of times stronger than that of a man and woman combined surged through his entire being.

This feeling of body and soul gradually evolving was enough to make anyone sink into it.

Shi Yan's eyes drooped, and he couldn't help but sigh in admiration.

After the enhancement was completely finished, Shi Yan opened the Slaughter Market, intending to pick out some good skills from it.

His gains from the Starry Sky Arena instance this time were a true bumper harvest. His slaughter points had reached an unprecedented level of around 270,000.

He could definitely be considered a rich man.

Soon, Shi Yan locked onto several targets.

Large Storage Space (A-rank): Obtain a storage space of one hundred cubic meters. Price: 50,000.

This was because his current storage space was indeed insufficient; otherwise, he could have put the Twisted Butterfly's corpse in it earlier.

Vigorous Stamina (B-rank): Increases stamina and stamina recovery speed by three times. Price: 70,000.

This was prepared for the Multiple Limbs skill he had just obtained. He didn't want to run out of stamina halfway through a battle.

Devastating Punch (A-rank): Increases punch damage by two times. Price: 80,000.

This skill was one he decided to purchase after some deliberation, because compared to his other various skills, his physical body was actually his strongest weapon.

However, skills that directly enhance the physical body are rarely seen in the Slaughter Market. If others obtain them, they will definitely use them on themselves immediately, rather than put them up for sale.

So, being able to snatch a Devastating Punch was already extremely good luck.

Finally, he decided to keep 70,000 slaughter points in reserve, to prevent a situation where he might be critically injured and need treatment from Slaughter Paradise but run out of slaughter points.

After digesting his gains, he exited Slaughter Paradise. He intended to test the Nature's Embrace skill.

After all, it was an A-rank skill; it couldn't be completely useless.

In reality, it was midday, with bright sunshine, birds singing, and flowers fragrant.

Everything gave a warm and peaceful feeling, making one unable to resist immersing themselves in it and enjoying that comfortable sensation.

As he had thought before.

He now felt the enhancement brought by the Nature's Embrace skill. His overall constitution had increased by at least three-tenths, and he also felt his mind become clear and refreshed.

So, even in the real world, it counted as being in nature.

After testing the skill, Shi Yan planned to return to Slaughter Paradise to the Training Camp to improve his combat abilities.

From the previous Starry Sky Arena, it was clear that the difficulty of the instances he was matched with had undergone a qualitative leap.

Even with his proud strength, he nearly lost his life there, which quickly pulled back his previously somewhat arrogant mindset.

Just as his thoughts were about to click down, he suddenly paused.

A thought suddenly flashed through his mind: the Nature's Embrace skill description stated that it would enhance the user in all aspects.

All aspects naturally included special areas like talent and comprehension.

And upgrading Multiple Limbs from level one to level two required proficiency.

So, could the bonus from Nature's Embrace affect the proficiency needed for Multiple Limbs?

Shi Yan was excited at this moment and began to try it out.

His black shirt slowly bulged at his chest, as if something was slowly moving beneath the fabric.

A large hole slowly opened in the center of the black shirt, revealing the scene below.

A large, distinctly jointed hand extended from between Shi Yan's armor-like pectoral muscles. The large hand kept moving left and right, giving off an extremely eerie feeling.

“This feeling…”

Shi Yan could feel that he could perfectly control that hand, without feeling any lag during the process.

With a thought.

The large hand suddenly stretched outwards, and instantly, an arm full of strong muscles protruded from his chest.
