[XP+20]

After glancing at the attribute bar, Su Lu felt good.

This sensation of gaining direct benefits after every effort was even more addictive than playing any game.

As for the blood of [Spirit Medium], it was inherently a mysterious material, capable of driving away spiritual bodies or injuring certain spiritual entities.

“There’s still time, let’s speed up!”

The next day, Su Lu returned to the inn he was staying at and began to count his gains.

Frankly, it required a great deal of luck to find that kind of wandering spirit that was about to transform into an evil spirit. He was busy all night, but his experience points only increased by 40.

“But, finally, the total is 100, I can enhance a [Spirit Medium] ability… of course, not spirit oppression!”

His spirit oppression, which had already been upgraded to LV2, required more experience points to upgrade.

Su Lu was torn between Soul Trance and Spirit Thorn.

“Clearly, Soul Trance is the [Spirit Medium]’s main skill, because [Spirit

Medium] deals with spirit entities and the Spirit World… But improving Spirit Thorn would provide an immediate boost to my combat strength. Right now, I need more strength!”

With this thought, Su Lu no longer hesitated: “Upgrade Spirit Thorn!” [Consuming 100 experience points… Spirit Thorn level upgraded to LV2!]

[Spirit Thorn LV2: Temporary spirit +0.4 bonus each time Spirit Thorn is utilized!]

At this point, Su Lu’s attribute column became:

Name: [Su Lu Pottery]

Profession: [Spirit Medium] (Rank 1)

Professional Rank: [1]

Title: [None]

Strength: [1.6], Agility: [1.3], Constitution: [1.2], Spirit: [2.6]

Inspiration: [2.6]

Skills: [Creation of Dead Princess LVI], [Maga fighting SkillLV5], [Soul

TranceLV1], [Spirit oppression LV2], [Spirit Thorn LV2]

Passive: [Common Hebrew LV3], [Basic Physics LV4], [Demon Hunting Knowledge LV4], [Ancient Hebrew LV2], [Gulam Language LVI] XP: [O]

“So, the upgraded Spirit Thorn is a temporary attribute increase too?” Su Lu calculated silently.

His spiritual power was already at 2.6. With the bonus, it went to 3.0. Not considering ordinary people, even transcendent beings at rank 1, unless they were of the spirit-specialized type, would be left behind by a gap of 1.0 by him!

If it was reflected in the form of spirit oppression, it would cause great shock, causing the opponent’s body to stiffen momentarily, losing the ability to move.

As for using Spirit Thorn, ordinary people might go brain dead directly! Even transcendent beings would suffer a certain amount of damage.

In the battle with the spiritual bodies, he could definitely immobilize the opponent for a longer period!

“Good! Last night was only a trial. Let’s continue tonight!”

Su Lu went to sleep satisfied, ready to rest during the day and operate at night, sweeping through all the graveyards of Posey Port.

This way, he might be able to accumulate enough experience points to speed up the enhancement of the [Spirit Medium] skills and meet the requirements for advancement.

At the same time, it was also a leap in his strength!

After a good sleep, a full meal, a replenished energy, Su Lu again started his sweeping mission.

“What’s going on?”

That night, he specifically chose a graveyard in the southern suburbs, but the number of wandering spirits was unexpectedly low.

“It’s abnormally low! Could someone be doing the same thing as me?”

Su Lu became alert, took the dagger in his hand, and fully activated his inspiration.

A cloud floated in the sky from nowhere, utterly obscuring the moonlight.

In such weather, even the graveyard keeper hid in his bed, shivering, with no intention of going out.

After all, the supernatural incidents in this world could really cause death!

The job of a gravekeeper is merely to deter grave thieves, and to patrol the cemetery during the day, informing the higher-ups of any losses!

Thankfully, even if he couldn’t see his hand in front of his face, his spiritual intuition compensated for everything!

Su Lu carefully scanned his surroundings, and without realizing it, he found himself in a forest.

There, a few disoriented spirits, as if guided by something, slowly amassed in a certain direction.

An idea flickered in Su Lu’s mind, and he quietly followed.

The speed at which the spirits floated wasn’t fast, so he could easily keep up.

After a while, a patch of darkness abruptly appeared in the tombstones ahead.

The eerie presence of this mystery stirred Su Lu’s spiritual intuition.

Just then, the clouds scattered, casting down a beam of moonlight.

Su Lu finally saw the figure distinctly – it was an ominous entity wearing a black cloak, with a protruding facial structure!

It had a human torso and limbs, but its face was grotesque, and its nose anomalously protruded forward as if it was a beak!

This image almost immediately overlapped with a local legend in Su Lu’s mind!

“The Beak Monster? Damn it! Are they real? Weren’t they supposed to be doctors?”

Seeing the Beak Monster inhale deeply, sucking a cluster of spirits into its beak, Su Lu felt a chill run down his spine.

He had let his guard down.

The reason legends were legends was that they must contain some degree of reality!

He cautiously retreated, hoping to escape.

After all, he was only a first-rank [Spirit Medium] at the moment. He didn’t stand much chance against a physical beast.

“Caw caw!”

But just then, the Beak Monster turned its head, looking in Su Lu’s direction, and emitted a dismal cry akin to a crow’s.

The next moment, it spread its arms, its cloak billowing, resembling the massive wings of a raven, and started chasing him.

“Damn it!”

Seeing the monster approach within ten meters, Su Lu’s face turned pale: “Spirit oppression!”

He released his enhanced spirit oppression without reservation. It hit the Beak Monster like a tidal wave.

Its movement paused for a few seconds. Its bird-like head shook a little, but it seemed unaffected and continued to lunge at him!

“This Beak Monster has a spiritual power of at least 2! And…it’s faster than me,

I can’t escape!”

Su Lu muttered to himself: “Spirit Thorn!”

“Caw caw!”

The monster clutched its head, letting out a piercing shriek.

“I’ll risk it! ”

Seizing this opportunity, Su Lu advanced instead of retreating, rushing forward, and fiercely stabbed the dagger in his hand.

Plunge!

The dagger, tainted with the blood of a Spirit Medium, penetrated the beast’s shoulder, causing a splash of dark blood.

“Huh?”

After the successful strike, Su Lu immediately retreated, somewhat pleasantly surprised: “This monster…its strength has not reached the ‘Transcendent’ level, it’s even weaker than I am! It seems to favor speed and spiritual power…which makes sense, devouring so many spirits, its spirit level must be high!”

He couldn’t help but want to hunt this wicked creature, as it would mean a significant amount of experience points.

The next moment.

The injured Beak Monster’s green, vertical pupils stared intently at Su Lu, opened its beak, and let out a piercing cry: “Caw caw!”

This cry was different from before, laden with impact.

To Su Lu, it seemed like a de-powered version of the ‘Banshee Wail’!

The terrifying wave of sound attacked him, causing hallucinations to appear before his eyes.

They were tormented spirits driven to madness, staring at him with bloodshot eyes: “Why! Why are we in so much pain?”

“We want you!”

“Your body!”

“Give me…your body!”

Because of their spiritual affinity, Spirit Mediums were the easiest targets for evil spirits to possess!
