Chapter 375: Chapter 233: End

"Little things that don’t even possess Source Substance."

"To think you dare remain here... truly pitiful."

The White Fox Girl’s voice drifted over. Before anyone else could speak, she continued, as if talking to herself:

"Source Substance is the root of all Extraordinary power."

"But like all energy, it has varying levels of strength. Source Substance, similarly, is divided into three levels."

The White Fox Girl spoke with confidence, her crisp, clear voice reaching everyone’s ears. Even figures as strong as these Tier Eight Powerhouses began to listen intently.

Source Substance was normally a power exclusive to Tier Nine Powerhouses. Even if you grasped this power ahead of time, you could not unleash its full potential. This was the case for both Su Xing and the Witch Summoner.

Therefore, Source Substance was extremely mysterious. Although many had heard of this power, almost no one knew what it truly was.

No one knew the mysterious White Fox Girl’s purpose in explaining this, but since she was willing to speak, they were certainly willing to listen.

"The lowest level of Source Substance is what you see in those two, locked in a deathmatch."

"The fact that they could comprehend Source Substance at this stage proves their talent is extraordinary—especially that fellow with three types of Source Substance. But in the end, without reaching Tier Nine, they’re fundamentally unable to wield the true power of Source Substance."

"However... even without unleashing the inherent power of Source Substance itself, they still possess the immense Defense Power it grants, as well as its own terrifying properties. The combination of these two is enough to make them invincible against anyone below a Tier Nine Powerhouse."

As she spoke, a few more Tier Seven Transcendents arrived. But when they saw so many Tier Eights gathered, their expressions changed abruptly, and they suddenly realized the atmosphere was somewhat off.

They especially overheard the words of the girl in the White Fox mask: invincible below Tier Nine. For Tier Seven Transcendents like them, who hadn’t even reached Tier Eight and could only dream of it, hearing such a statement left them momentarily at a loss for what to think.

Every Tier Seven was well aware of how powerful a Tier Eight Powerhouse was. Yet, according to that little White Fox girl, merely the "trashiest" Source Substance was enough to annihilate any existence below Tier Nine.

This was hard for them to believe, and it made them feel how truly vast the world was.

If Su Xing heard this, he would definitely be confused. If the energy he gained from shattering swords was truly Source Substance, then he should be able to steamroll anyone below Tier Nine by breaking just one sword. But he didn’t have that kind of combat power at all.

But,

with Su Xing currently locked in a battle to the death,

he was naturally in no position to voice the doubts in his heart.

"At the second stage, the possessor of Source Substance has typically officially stepped into Tier Nine. This is where the true power of Source Substance lies. All of the possessor’s understanding of the Extraordinary is integrated into it, causing the Source Substance to undergo some extremely profound changes."

"At this point, not only can the Source Substance possess one or several properties, but you can also manipulate it at will, without fear of backlash. Most importantly, the enhancement from the Source Substance becomes even more outrageous and terrifying."

"Your power and Defense Power will be greatly enhanced. The value is hard to describe with specific numbers. An uncontrolled, full-power punch might be enough to wipe out more than half a city."

"..."

The crowd exchanged glances. They naturally knew how exaggerated the White Fox Girl’s description was. As Tier Eights, their destructive power was terrifying, comparable to missiles, but there was still a gap when compared to actual nuclear weapons.

This was one of the reasons why the nation continued to develop technology instead of pouring all its resources into building up the Extraordinary system. But if what the White Fox Girl said was true, that would make them human-shaped nuclear bombs—far more terrifying than a single warhead.

And yet, no one questioned whether the White Fox Girl was bluffing. Because the two beings below who possessed Source Substance were indeed displaying unparalleled combat prowess.

If this power were taken a step further, perhaps it really could reach that terrifying level. The Luocheng branch chief’s expression hardened as he suddenly recalled the rumors from the Capital City about a resurrected Tier Nine Extraordinary Being. ’Does this mean the Capital City’s special organization already understands the terrifying power of a Tier Nine Extraordinary Being?’

’No wonder...’

’No wonder they’ve been acting so fearlessly.’

’While all the regional Extraordinary organizations were facing their own dangers, the Capital City’s organization has already skipped several meetings. If they possess such power, they truly wouldn’t need to consult with organizations like ours.’

"As for the third level, those who reach this stage are typically supreme powerhouses just one step away from breaking through to Tier Ten. They fuse the Source Substance with their own bodies, truly attaining a Demigod Body. From then on, their lifespans are as vast as the heavens and earth. As long as their Source Substance energy does not wane, they will never die."

Through the White Fox Girl’s explanation, a tiny corner of the mystery surrounding the unknown world of Tier Nine was lifted for the crowd. However, for most of them, this information was little more than an amusing story, as they would never be able to break through to Tier Nine themselves.

"So that’s how it is..."

"No wonder those two down there are so incredibly powerful."

"Indeed."

"That the one from the Witch Race is so strong is somewhat understandable, but how is his opponent, who is so young, also able to..."

The person’s words were filled with awe, but also a thick, irrepressible tinge of jealousy.

"Heh, I’m quite curious myself."
