Chapter 121 | Sorting Out Rewards
The Eternal Buddha Endurance Scripture had upgraded to a Tier-7 technique, officially renamed the Indestructible Buddha Endurance Scripture.
The stages of the technique remained the same, but their effects had been magnified terrifyingly.
The first stage, Iron Flesh, had previously made his skin as hard as steel. Now, his flesh was tightened and strengthened until it was vastly superior to refined steel.
The second stage which was Iron Bones, had drastically increased his bone density and strength.
Right now, he was currently at the third stage, the Golden Organs.
At this moment, he could feel his internal organs hardening, taking on a lustrous, gold-like resilience.
The chronic pain he continuously absorbed from Mira, Lyra, and Selene was actively tempering his organs. He could feel that he was on the edge of breaking through to the fourth stage. It wouldn’t be long now.
But it was the evolution of his second body art that truly caught his attention. The Extreme Slaughter Demon Body had evolved into the Asura Slaughter Demon Body.
Dexter frowned, rubbing his temples.
The technique actually bordered on evil.
The Asura Slaughter Demon Body was not like other body tempering techniques, it was extremely terrifying.
A practitioner of this art could possess the physical strength of a Transcendent Realm expert while their mana cultivation lagged far behind.
But the cost was steep.
The technique relied on something called slaughter Energy and it can only be harvested from a freshly killed corpse.
According to the technique, slaughter energy existed within a dying body for only the first ten to fifteen minutes after death. Human or beast, it didn’t matter. The moment a life was extinguished, the energy began to dissipate, vanishing completely within a quarter of an hour.
If he wanted to cultivate this technique, he had to be the one whose hands ended the life, only then could the slaughter energy be absorbed.
Asura Slaughter Demon Body
Description: A forbidden body refinement art that tempers the flesh through slaughter. Unlike ordinary body cultivation techniques that rely on mana, the Asura Slaughter Body evolves the body itself.

Dexter eyes widened in surprise. ’This technique is actually this terrifying?’
It actually possess a way to become a Legendary expert by simply killing.
One million kills for the Supreme Realm. One hundred million for Peak Supreme. One billion for Legendary.
He knew that if this technique fell into the wrong hands, the world would definitely burn.
There were people in this city, in this country, on this continent who would willingly sacrifice a hundred million lives to reach the Transcendent Realm not to mention Legendary.
If Dexter had not met the girls and had come across this technique, he wouldn’t hesitate either.
Before the marriage and the system, Dexter’s life had been cold and bitter. Treated as a slave by his own family.
Another darker truth was that the Assassins on the bridge weren’t his first kill either.
But now...
Now he didn’t hesitate either. The world be damned. If it’s to burn the entire city down or wipe the entire Ashford family become a Legend rank hero, he wouldn’t hesitate.
The Frost, Callowell and Vance family would be added bonus.
But the technique did not specify human kills.
Which meant that the slaughter energy could be harvested from any living creature that possessed life force.
Dexter’s ran his tongue across his lips.
Dungeons, he could head into a dungeon and clear the monsters there.
One thousand kills for the Ultra Realm was achievable within a month.
Ten thousand kills for the Transcendent Realm—achievable within three to five months.
One hundred thousand kills for Peak Transcendent—achievable within three to a year to two years of relentless dungeon raiding.
A Peak Transcendent Realm expert in two years.
Dexter leaned back as he smiled smirked.
Others spent 500 to 1000 years to reach the Transcendent Realm with mountains of resources, and dungeon raiding
But with this technique, he could do it in a year or two!
In the entire city, the number of Transcendent Realm experts could be counted on one hand. A Peak Transcendent could do whatever they wanted in the city with not many people that could stop them.
Dexter smiled. ’Now with my energy cultivation and body cultivation, things would be even simpler.’
With the extraction ability, his physique was alredy strong. Now with the body refinement art, he would be unstoppable.
He moved on to the next reward.

The Vibrum Skybreaker — Type-6 Arcane SUV
Dexter was genuinely excited as he pulled up the vehicle’s specifications.
The most remarkable thing about the vehicle was its appearance. Despite being a Type-6 combat-grade vehicle with enough firepower to level a district, it looked.l very ordinary.
From the outside, it was indistinguishable from a standard family SUV.
But on the inside, it was a fortress. Armor plating that could tank a hit from a Transcendent Realm expert. Hidden jet thrusters that enabled full flight.
An ultra-speed engine that could outrun a Peak Ultra Realm expert and an explosive mana cannon concealed that could severely injure an Ultra Realm expert and threaten an early Transcendent, etc.
Dexter grinned. His fear of being sniped through the window vanished.

Three Type-3 Arcane Smart Devices
Dexter shrugged at the phones. They were useful, certainly, but less thrilling than a flying armored SUV. The unlimited internet and calling access was a nice perk.
–––
Grade-3 Eternal Frost Suppressant Serums 30x
Dexter immediately sighed in relief.
With the serum, Selene wouldn’t break out in seven months.
–––
As for the Ancient Primordial Beast Egg reduction to 90%.
Dexter was excited about it.
’What kind of beast was inside? A dragon? A phoenix? Or something even better?’
