Chapter 528 Advanced
On the third day after Xu Si's sculpture was erected in the square, the entire City of Fire was plunged into a strange restlessness.
The reason is simple—a new batch of exchange lists has been posted at the Firewood Tower.
[Sequence Enhancement Potion, Tier 5: 2000 Spark Points (Stockpile: 3)]
[Sequence Enhancement Potion, Tier 4: 1500 Fire Points (Stockpile: 21)]
[Sequence Enhancement Potion - Tier 3: 900 Fire Points (Stockpile: 40)]
……
As for the first and second tier low-level enhancement potions, they are practically dirt cheap.
Even newcomers to the team who don't have many purification points can buy one to try it out.
"You've really gone all out this time," Shao Bing said softly, standing at the entrance of Xin Huo Lou and looking at the long queue.
"You only feel truly secure when you have power in your own hands!"
Fu Xiaojian did not exchange for enhancement or transformation potions; he used all his purification points to exchange for the [Heavy Boots - Left], and even then, he borrowed some from Shao Bing.
He is only one step away from Sequence 5, and perhaps with a few days of hard work, he will be able to make a breakthrough.
"Next."
Qian Duoduo's voice came from inside the Xinhuo Building.
Tashan stepped forward and handed over his torch card.
A fluorescent green light flickered, and the number on the card changed from 920 to 420.
Five hundred torches.
After this period of depletion, his remaining tinder points are also running low.
Although it can be exchanged for a Tier 3 Enhancement Potion, it might not be as practical as a Metamorphosis Potion overall.
After all, Tashan has already taken more than one third-tier enhancement potion, so it is still unknown how much effect it will have.
There's no need to worry about transformation potions.
The others mostly saved up Fire Points to exchange for Enhancement Potions, since the enhancement potions' boost to the sequence was immediately apparent.
……
Tashan found a quiet spot and drank the medicine directly.
The moment the medicine entered his throat, Tashan's pupils suddenly contracted.
An indescribable sense of heaviness washed over him, as if an entire mountain was pressing down on him.
His bones were creaking, his muscles were spasming wildly, and the sequence energy within him was like a mad beast rampaging through his body.
Tashan gritted his teeth, veins bulging on his forehead, and large beads of sweat sliding down his cheeks.
Pain is the best catalyst for his sequence.
He had even become familiar with and enjoyed this feeling, the feeling of becoming stronger.
He leaned against a stone wall, his back straight, like a reef that had been eroded by wind and rain for thousands of years but still stood firm.
His sequence progress was violently oscillating, surging forward a great distance from the brink of breakthrough, and then, the invisible wall that had always blocked his way finally cracked.
The cracks grew larger and larger, spreading outwards like a spider web.
Then--
boom.
The wall is broken.
The sequence of Tashan jumped from sequence 4—Mountain Giant—to sequence 5—Great Mountain Chief.
At that moment, he felt as if his body had been reforged.
Blood, bones, muscles, fascia—every cell is releasing unprecedented power.
Then he slammed his fist into the ground.
I didn't use my full strength, only 30%.
However, the rocks on the ground were cracked radially outwards from the center of the fist, with the cracks extending for a full three feet, and small stones fell down in a flurry.
This is only 30% of his power, and he hasn't even used the stone town yet, and it's already this terrifying?
Before the smoke and dust had cleared, Yang Fan led several people to leap down from the rooftops not far away.
"Minister? What's this?"
Yang Fan was unsure whether or not to issue a punishment.
As the Minister of City Defense, Tashan openly used Sequence Ability within the city and caused such severe damage.
It would be really unreasonable not to punish them.
Tashan looked at his fist, a slow grin spreading across his face, revealing a set of fairly even white teeth. Then, a ripple emanated from beneath his feet, and the shattered floor tiles were instantly restored to their original state.
"What's wrong? Is something the matter?"
"It's alright, Minister, you've been promoted to Rank 5?"
"Okay, if there's nothing else, you can leave now. You'll be busy today, so don't make a fuss! Punish him as appropriate."
Tashan knew that he wouldn't be the only one who couldn't control his power today, so the others would definitely have to make more contributions to the city.
As soon as he finished speaking, a sound even louder than the commotion at Tashan came from not far away.
"It looks like Su Su's house?" Yang Fan jumped back onto a relatively high rooftop nearby to shield his view and peer into the distance.
The houses in the city with Tashan Mountain all have their own characteristics, so they are easy to identify.
"Go ahead! Punish her however you see fit!" Ta Shan said seriously, not expecting that Su Su had also advanced to Sequence 5.
Judging by her level of effort, that girl should have been promoted long ago. Perhaps Jiao Jiao's return has helped her resolve her inner conflicts.
The promotions of Tashan and Susu are just the appetizer.
Over the next two days, the City of Fire was like a powder keg that had been lit, exploding one after another.
First was Jiang Ling from the city defense department. This man, who had always been taciturn and served as Ta Shan's deputy, jumped from Sequence 4 - Lingji Daoist to Sequence 5 - Lingji Immortal Master after taking the fourth-order enhancement potion. He now looked like a celestial being.
His promotion was much less dramatic than that of Tashan; there was no explosive sound, no cracking ground, only a mysterious, empty feeling emanating from the unknown.
The remaining three in Sequence 4, Fu Xiaojian, Lin Zhennan, and Lao Yanqiang, have not yet been promoted.
Fu Xiaojian is just one step away from Sequence 5, while Lin Zhennan has only recently been promoted to Sequence 4 and lacks sufficient foundation.
He's certainly got the experience of a seasoned smoker, but his lineage is rather unique.
In particular, his island frogs, which he bred from scratch, are only at the third stage, which has delayed his sequence development.
Many more were promoted from Sequence 3 to Sequence 4.
Hyuga Aoi's promotion sequence 4 - Ninjutsu Master;
DouDou was promoted to Sequence 4 – the Law Enforcer, and at the same time, she also contracted a Level 4 Mysterious Beast – the Treasure Elephant, a creature that truly eats dirt and plucks gold.
This guy's excrement is the most indispensable raw material for the Ministry of Works. Doubao now does nothing but turn the soil, feed this guy, and collect his excrement.
As Baoxiang's provider, Baoxiang now treats Doubao even better than Doudou.
In addition, Wang Hu was promoted to Sequence 4 – Melting Master;
Jiang Li was promoted to the 4th rank – Imperial Edict;
Zhou Xiaodao's promotion sequence 4 - Shadow Assassin;
Ivan's promotion sequence 4 - Steel Collar;
There are also quite a few in promotion sequence 3:
Master Wei's promotion sequence 3 - Gu Master;
Sun Dali was promoted to Sequence 3 – Warrior;
There are also quite a few people promoted to promotion sequence 2:
Tang Jinxiu was promoted to Sequence 2 - Messenger of Pleasure by relying on the potion that Chen Pei exchanged for her;
In fact, Tang Jinxiu was more suited to changing to a different sequence, but for some reason, they did not make that choice.
Liang Hong and Xiao Wu, both Sequence 1, advanced to the Tidewalker Sequence and Mountain Lord Sequence respectively.
Fang Liang's executioner sequence, Zhou Wan's vegetative state sequence, and He Xiuying's barber sequence were all promoted to sequence 2.
It's worth mentioning that Zhou Wan's Sequence 2 is called "Awakening of Spirit Plants," which can quickly improve your sequence by using spirit plants.
As the Minister of Agriculture, and with the help of the World Tree, it's conceivable that Zhou Wan will enter a period of rapid improvement, and perhaps it won't be long before she becomes one of the most formidable fighters in the City of Fire.
Others either don't have enough "fire points" or aren't ready to advance.
