Damn, I Awakened With A Horror System!

Chapter 309 A... Technique?!

...

After the system accepted his hard-earned horror points, the 3 books within the atmosphere suddenly released a dark brilliance... Being consumed by miasma as the qi in the surrounding area surge toward their old surface.

Shrouding the objects in pure darkness, making them quite indiscernible even under Leo's superior divine senses.

Churn-

Soon, after an unknown period of time, the dark miasma that shrouded the books finally dispersed toward the environment, sweeping to the far distance before vanishing at one point... Instantly unfolding the wooden books, with covers made from an unknown type of dark metallic paper within.

Feeling that the desire within his soul intensified considerably—a testament that the value of the books in front of him increased due to the restoration of the system—Leo's breathing couldn't help but hasten drastically.

Immediately touching their soft surface as their scent, akin to sandalwood, penetrated his nostrils, giving him the rich sensation of comfort.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

With eyes filled with anticipation, Leo mumbled the finally intelligible words on the cover of the book... Unable to conceal his excitement upon understanding the meaning of their words.

"Comprehensive knowledge regarding cultivation, Body Tempering Technique, and Earth Elemental Cultivation Technique..."

"Two techniques that reach the mid-stage of heaven grade and a book that contained knowledge regarding the way of cultivation!"

Sigh-

"I wasted my precious horror points for nothing... Only the book that contained knowledge regarding cultivation could be regarded as important.

"With my unique physique, body tempering wouldn't work on me. As for the cultivation technique... Sigh~ it's not that it wasn't usable, but my current cultivation technique was higher and more compatible than this Earth Elemental cultivation technique is."

Putting the two books within his inventory while shaking his head in dissatisfaction, Leo focused his mind on the remaining book in his front...

Only to heave a sigh of relief afterward before eventually tossing it inside the system inventory. It's not that the knowledge it contained disappoints him; in fact, it even exceeds his imagination...

It's just that reading and comprehending a book often took hours... And casually reading it in this kind of place is simply inappropriate. To the point that he might be attacked unknowingly if he was engrossed in reading the content of the book.

However, before Leo could retreat for dozens of meters, the ground underneath him, covered with rotting bones and objects from an unknown era, suddenly trembled—parting afterward before revealing countless thin roots that instantly bound Leo's figure.

"Not good!"

Feeling an intense danger descending to his being, Leo, without hesitation, burst out his strength, instantly deactivating his invisibility skill as dark, eerie flames containing terrifying coldness blossomed within his lower body...

Sizzle~

In an instant, before the roots... Akin to thin threads pierced Leo's pale physique, the dark flames spread on their thin beings, creating a crisp, sizzling sound as they burned under Leo's gloomy eyes—writhing in pain before turning into ashes, which eventually vanished in the face of the world.

"How could they detect me even though I'm under the concealment of invisibility skill?!"

Rumble!

Before Leo could ponder the question in his mind, the space around him again issued a large quake. However, compared to earlier, the disturbance underneath the ground was much higher than before!

Making his heart skip a bit as he hurriedly retreated in the distance.

"What kind of entity is this?!"

Under the prying of his divine senses, Leo could see countless thin roots, akin to dark threads underneath the earth, moving toward his location at a swift speed!

Giving him the illusion that countless thin worms, similar to tapeworms, were rushing toward his pale physique with greed, causing his skin to tingle in disgust and horror.

Extreme Hell Flame!

Gritting his teeth, understanding that he couldn't afford to hold back, Leo immediately utilized 5% of his spiritual qi.

In an instant, the temperature of the raging flames around him abruptly plummeted; their hue further darkened before spreading toward the ground with speed visibly to naked eyes.

Creating an artificial hell that pulverized everything on its way!
