The sound of the sand dance piercing flesh and severing light bones brought joy to Ye Zhongming.
Although half of his body was numb and he had no sensation, he felt a sense of success by defeating a powerful opponent despite the severe limitations on his abilities.
How is human potential unleashed? It's when pushed to the edge of a cliff, when life hangs in the balance, and one accomplishes things that are usually impossible. As long as one gets through the tough times, it proves that they have potential, and this potential will soon become part of their strength.
Neither in his past life nor this life had Ye Zhongming fought to the death in such a situation. Now, achieving victory gave him a new understanding of his tactics, willpower, and mental state, greatly boosting his confidence.
The giant bear's body crashed to the ground. Even in death, it did not understand why, with all the advantages of time, place, and people, it lost to a human whose strength and means were restricted.
Ye Zhongming sighed in relief and glanced at the light shield rising towards the sixth small space. He sat down, took off his equipment, and checked his wounds.
Thanks to the protection of the Thousand Leaf Scale Armor and the additional attributes of the Earth defense equipment, although the giant bear had a fierce bite, it ultimately didn't manage to bite him deeply before being killed, so it had only just pierced his armor.
However, the giant bear's teeth were long and sharp, leaving several bloody holes on Ye Zhongming's body. He treated them briefly, and within a few minutes, the bleeding stopped, and the numbness gradually faded into pain.
Ye Zhongming knew this was a good sign. At this moment, the advantages of an evolver's body were evident. Coupled with his already good foundation and the clear body brought by the Myriad-Bodied Blade Sage, his recovery from injuries was not only faster than ordinary people but also exceeded that of other evolvers. When he repaired and put on his battle armor again, the wounds had already scabbed over.
At this pace, Ye Zhongming estimated that these bloody holes would heal completely within two days.
This surprised him, as he realized that the only thing he had recently gained in this regard was the clear body. It seemed this passive skill of his profession was indeed a miraculous recovery ability.
Taking advantage of his recovery time, Ye Zhongming pulled out the red soil he had obtained in this space and observed it carefully.
Like the other two colors of soil, the red soil was fine and pure, with no impurities at all. From a certain angle, one could even see a faint reflection of light.
This was something the other two colors of soil did not possess, but considering their different functions, Ye Zhongming understood.
Previously, the black soil could represent defense equipment to some extent, the yellow soil represented accessory equipment, so could the red soil represent... offensive equipment?
Ye Zhongming's eyes brightened involuntarily. The equipment he wore was indeed predominantly offensive.
He couldn't wait to take out the silver sniper rifle.
Unfortunately, equipment like the sand dance or the Crystal Energy Magic Bullet Gun either required a roulette production or were made according to blueprints. The red Nourishing Life Soil was still useless, which limited Ye Zhongming's advancement in weaponry. However, Ye Zhongming was an outstanding glorious artisan, and he had many weapons he made on himself and the Cloud Summit People, all of which were within the upgrade range of the Nourishing Life Soil.
This silver sniper rifle had merely been enhanced by homogenous reinforcement enchantment, so its attributes appeared randomly and weren't very good.
After putting in the red Nourishing Life Soil, the silver sniper rifle transformed into a green level under Ye Zhongming's expectant yet unsurprised gaze.
"Earthquake suppression armor-piercing gun, attack power +340, armor-piercing +230."
"Ability 1: Long-range and precision. The firearm comes with a high-precision sight, greatly enhancing the shooter's field of view and reducing recoil, minimizing the surrounding environment's impact on the bullet's trajectory, significantly improving accuracy."
