I Bound Myself to a Destructive Witch-Chapter 203 : 184. Mu Shen’s Rampage Upgrade Mode
"Optimization!"
With Xia Feng's palm pressed against the girl's abdomen, a milky halo burst forth like Holy Light, and a ceaseless, bizarre power shot suddenly into her entire nervous system.
"Eh? Mm!!!!" Taken by surprise, Mushroom's back arched high, her little mouth slightly open, her big watery eyes widened in bewildered disbelief, "Wait, wait a minute!"
"Little Feng!"
She hurriedly pressed down on Xia Feng's hand, trying to push it away, but then she remembered his instruction not to resist, and thus she gave up and let the power rush directly into the depths of her soul.
Her cheeks flushed red as she bit down hard on the back of her hand, at that moment, her soul seemed to undergo an indescribable, ultimate sublimation.
A series of information appeared in her mind.
[Optimization successful——]
[N·Trash Mushroom (Optimized Version)]
[Level: N]
[Abnormal State: Awakened in the optimized Spiritual Artifact space, possesses {upgradable} abnormal attributes]
[Mushroom Transformation: You can turn into any variety of mushroom, in this state your presence will be minimized to the lowest, unnoticed by anyone. Additionally, you can turn another life form into a mushroom and consume it, acquiring 10% of that life form's composite qualities. Meanwhile, the transformed life form cannot be detected by any Spiritual Clothes or Spiritual Artifacts below the S rank.]
[Elemental Mushroom Body: You are favored and will obtain perfect affinity with the seven spiritual types of gold, wood, water, fire, earth, light, and darkness. (Equivalent to choosing any attribute to cultivate! Normally, one can only choose a fixed attribute to cultivate!!)]
"!" Seeing these two abilities, Mushroom was completely dumbfounded.
Xia Feng was also somewhat surprised; he looked at his hands doubtfully. He knew his optimization ability was strong, but was it really this powerful?
It was known that every Spirit Master actually had some degree of all seven elements, with one typically standing out as their spiritual affinity.
For instance Xia Feng, although none of his attributes were high, his Water Element was significantly stronger than the others, defining his spiritual affinity as water. He naturally would choose materials with Water Element affinity for promotion.
Of course, with Mu Shen to rely on, he didn't need to worry about these things.
But aside from exceptional cases like Mu Qingtong, who succeeded 100% of the time, most Spirit Masters still faced the possibility of failure even after gathering the necessary spiritual materials, due to insufficient affinity with the attributes.
It was like walking a tightrope over a cliff. The spiritual materials built the bridge, and the higher the elemental affinity, the wider the bridge would be, making it easier to cross to the other side.
The 'Elemental Mushroom Body' ability, offering perfect affinity with all seven spiritual types, was like constructing seven 100-meter wide bridges over the cliff, forming a massive platform that virtually eliminated any chance of falling off.
Well, unless the crosser used a drill to damage the platform or deliberately strolled to the platform's edge, falling would be harder than ascending to heaven.
So, Mushroom's ability was incredibly powerful—provided that her speed of enhancing Spiritual Pressure wasn't slow.
If her innate talent for constructing a Spiritual Particle structure was poor, then this ability would be useless.
Seeing Mushroom still dazed, mouth agape in bewilderment, Xia Feng waved a hand in front of her face, "What are you thinking about?"
"It just feels... like a dream."
"Don't get too excited yet," Xia Feng patted her head, "If you can't form a good Spiritual Particle structure and advance your Spiritual Pressure, then this perfectly-affinity talent will still just be for show."
Not everyone was like Mu Qingtong, for whom enhancing Spiritual Pressure was as simple as eating or drinking.
"Mhm, I know, but this is already amazing." Dressed in a little bear pajama set, Mushroom sat obediently on the bed, nodding her head vigorously, yet her emotions surged with excitement. Her face flushed as she looked up at the man in front of her. After staring silently and intently for two seconds, she suddenly leaped forward, giving Xia Feng a bear hug.
"Da da—" Xia Feng steadied the lolita who had thrown herself at him and took a couple of unexpected steps back, hearing a murmuring whisper in his ear, "Xia, Xia Feng, thank you..."
Xia Feng's eyes twitched, and he delivered two slaps to her backside, "Little Mushroom, show some sincerity in your thanks, like the traditional 'this humble girl has nothing to repay you with but is willing to offer herself in return' or something like that..."

"...." Mushroom's pupils dilated, and she quickly lowered her eyelids.
"Master, that won't do~" At that moment, the red-dressed woman who had been silently admiring the outside scenery at the doorway, turned her head back and walked in, earnestly saying, "I am the master's personal maid, and Hong Dou is my daughter. According to the ethical standards of the Empire, this kind of behavior from the master is not only against morality but is also illegal."
Xia Feng: "..."
Mushroom: "..."
In Yue Hongli's mind, one of the duties of a personal maid was to be a bedfellow, almost like a mistress, hence such logic.
Xia Feng felt... this made a lot of sense!
Thinking this, he immediately tossed Mushroom back onto the bed, and then, with an air of superiority, wrapped his arms around the soft waist of the lady in the red dress and seriously said, "Little Mushroom, I'm your daddy now, so please conduct yourself with dignity from now on!"
Mushroom: ...
Mushroom: ⊙▂⊙
Mushroom: (◣_◢)
The excitement and joy of awakening the incredible Spiritual Artifact had completely dissipated, and in her pale green eyes, only irritation and anger remained as she gritted her teeth and glared death stares at the couple in front of her.
She only felt her life was so bleak; it probably could be summed up by "The Affairs of My Good Brother and My Stepmother," filled with the vibe of a victim.
"Alright, enough joking around, it's time to talk about serious matters."
Xia Feng snapped his fingers and smiled, "Mushroom, do you still want to participate in the selection for the Holy Daughter?"
"Ah?" Mushroom was taken aback for a moment and then whispered in a voice as soft as a mosquito's, "Of course, of course I do..."
"Can you be more confident? If you want it, you have to go for it!" Xia Feng clapped his hands, "The day after tomorrow is the selection, right? I will accompany you."
It just so happened that before coming to Mushroom's house, he had already scoped out the outskirts of the Black Moon Church according to Miss Jianzhu's guidance.
According to his senses, not only were there Water Bright Stones inside the church, but also Holy Liquid.
And from the memory images of Mushroom just now, it was true that the ceiling of the central hall in the church had over a hundred Yao Stones, among which 30 were Water Bright Stones...
As for the Holy Liquid, although he did not know the exact location, there definitely was a significant amount.
Now he was only 5 milliliters away from the 100-milliliter standard to achieve a brief Holy Release, and the Holy Liquid inside the church was definitely enough.
Therefore, the Water Bright Stones could be stolen... well, not necessarily snatched, but the Holy Liquid must be Robin Hooded!
Xia Feng had originally wanted to ask Cha Naixue for help to become an inside traitor for once, but Cha Naixue said at most she could help him embezzle a few Yao Stones, but she was powerless when it came to the Holy Liquid.
No way around it, Xia Feng knew that this unreliable Holy Daughter was of no use, so he had to find another way.
And now was the perfect opportunity, using the chance to help Mushroom avenge her past humiliations, to infiltrate the church and see if there was a possibility.
But just as Xia Feng was pondering, a dense stream of information suddenly appeared in his mind, unfolding rapidly.
[After continuous refinement of "Heavenly Destiny·Ruthlessness" overnight, you have entered the Calamity Realm of the Five-Eyed Calamity - Insect Emperor Calamity]
[Killing an Ape Worm Evil resulted in 1.2T of agony inflicted on the target, resulting in an increase of 0.12 points in strength]
[Killing an Ape Worm Evil...]
[Strength +0.12 +0.12...]
Seeing these messages, Xia Feng was delighted and couldn't help but exclaim how awesome it was; Mu Qingtong was actually working so hard, not even resting and directly entering a frenzied leveling mode?!
[Current Strength: 289]
[Torturing a high-level Ape Worm Evil repeatedly, cumulatively inflicting 100T of agony on the target, resulted in an increase of 10 points in strength]
[Using special methods to gather three hundred Ape Worm Evils into an enclosed space, activating the Thunder Array to massacre the group, cumulatively inflicting 300T of agony on group targets, resulting in the death of the group targets, you gained 30 points of strength increase...]
[Current Strength: 329]
In the four basic indicators measuring the strength of a Spirit Master, 'Strength' refers to physical strength, which includes but is not limited to strength, physical robustness, physical recovery...
And the 'strength increase' produced by the Heavenly Destiny Stone is actually synonymous with 'Strength'.
300 points is the upper limit for a Third Rank Spirit Master. Moving beyond, the physical quality of a Spirit Master undergoes a fundamental evolution to enter the non-human domain, which is why starting from the Fourth Rank they are called Superior Rank Spirit Masters.
