'Pain! It's Painful!'
'It's not hurting! It's not hurting at all.'
Chanting the mantra of solidifying his will Shu was grinding his teeth against each other, the in-Human pain was something similar to that of rebirth circle which was something, he was able to bear due to the experience he had accumulated in his previous life.
The wound he had inflicted by the knife was clotting out with the weird cells, as they repaired the wound at in-Human pace but Shu on the other hand was not in the state to observe those changes.
The process of breaking and repairing was taking place simultaneously inside Shu's body, which is something that only takes place in the Rebirth Cycle realm. On the other hand, Shu was feeling very lethargy invading his mind due to tiredness, he truly wished for something which could replenish his vitality at that moment.
The memories of the original owner were starting to revolve around Shu's consciousness, as he found himself standing in a different place and what caught his attention was a human-looking creature, with thin bones and a bloody body.
In the real world, Shu's body was writhing with pain but the endurance of his mind was beyond human limits, the nails were dug inside the palm and the blood keep flowing out of the wound, where pain crept inside his heart which made him puke blood out...
The intense rotting smell which was coming from the weird creature gave Shu the sensation of fighting with the corrupted sect Doll and undead, Shu's face was calm facing that undead.
As he twisted his body and dodged it with ease but felt something weird as if it was not him who was attacked by that creature when a scream made him turn back to see...
His skin fall like snake shedding, where the only difference was the blood covering them and sticky weird liquid... Chen Shu's body was definitely weakened...
Chen Shu woke up in the real world where the dream was revealed to him, the reason why the bite mark appeared on his neck at that moment. Seemingly he was bitten in childhood where the mark disappeared, and he was unable to think of the reason it appeared after such a long time.
Chalp... The voice echoed when Shu tried to stand up as he looked at the huge amount of disgusting clotted blood around his armpit and other areas. He was relieved to think that he had packed several clothes before coming here for some reason, or it might have been a problem to move around naked, where these clothes were covered in Shitty clotted blood.
[Transmution successful.]

Looking at the changes which happened in this duration of time Shu was quite happy about everything, the injuries were gone, and after he took the bath in the riverside, his skin became enchanting which surpassed even him from a previous life when they were in similar age.
The inborn charm developed while the face and structure remain unchanged. He smiled at the surprise he got the most was his Dantian, they have turned big astonishingly big with more elasticity he had ever seen.
With that, he circulated the Octadic smash, and his fist smashed powered by Mana, Yes! he used octadic smash with mana, which released a tremendous power as he rushed at the tree which was 4 meters in width.
The punch landed on the tree bark and a huge force which was ignited with mana exploded the tree into smithereens, where the scattered pieces carrying firepower burnt all the things around the area.
He was still in the First Qi layer and according to information he was in 2nd level specialized apprentice.
Chen walked, passing the trees until he saw what looked like a river — it was so beautiful and breathtaking, Like a true work of nature art!
It was something to be called a truly iconic landmark!
Where beautiful silver lotus bloomed right in front of him, Silver lotus was not a species from this planet and Shu was well aware of it because in this river there were only normal Lotus species.
The simple answer to that question was that they were mutating just like him, given even plants started to mutate, then about the monster and Dogs mutation like that.
all the points were clearly signifying a single thing to him, that the apocalypse might have descended over all the species on this planet, and if there was to be a spatial warm hole opening around the city with the flood of the Zombies, the city structure would definitely collapse after this incident.
Chen Shu suddenly remembers the face of a little girl and lady Ren where the Golden Qi, which has mutated inside him would come in handy to save them if there was even a little chance of saving them.
He always returns the kindness he received tens of times and that is why he knew that he has to rush back to the city to check out the status of the little girl and Lady Ren.
The times flew as a blurry figure could be seen passing through the woods and reaching toward the city
[Night Reign: Shadow Movement (10/100)±]
The skill provides a movement buff to Shu actively in the dark presence or in the night, the estimated speed of his body in light is around 2 to 3 times he usually can run while in the shadow it became 4 times for sure. Since the night has not fallen at all, where Shu was quite sure about that speed buff he will get will make him around 5 times or so.
When Shu finally saw a few people after 6 to 7 minutes of running toward the city, at that moment the wind rose and dust flew by where Shu's eyes sharpened.
After all, when all of those people turned to look at Shu for some reason their faces were not that of a human.
Zombies, that was the name given to hollow undead of this world and Shu took out the sword.
Those things speed up at his sight with a tremendous speed to which the foul smell released from them came toward Shu, at which he was sure that these guys should be inside the grave, after all, they are whole body has rotten.
The wet soil on their clothes and finally the clothes they were wearing were that of people who are already dead and were buried inside their graveyard, at which Shu felt a little angry about it since they were buried and they are standing with proper soul, clearly signifies that the person soul had been buried alive only near-death state.
The soul or the person must have gone through a lot and Shu determined to destroy this body, and release them out of this shell.
When the Zombie was close enough to scratch at Shu, he skillfully dodged back with a sharp light appearing and the sword stabbing at the zombie's head, the stabbed sword burst out with the Magma which burst the zombie head with flames.
The body which fell down started to incinerate with the remaining mana which was transmitted inside the body. This was the pure demonstration of control over the Mana and its application with versatile resonance, to which Shu has developed with Vampire's ability to influence and control over Mana.
There was anything he wanted to research but he was also in a hurry toward the city, so he was putting a tab over it before he could save the little girl and mother pair.
The Other Zombies also assaulted him without any reservation, he fall back after all even if he was a great fighter, he would die as long as he would be surrounded by many, and not to say that he has many blank spots as a mortal.
When the fastest one was catching Shu smiled and again a streak of light passed beheading the zombie, where both body and head watched fire instantly too.
Dealing with every single of them one by one Shu was finally able to rush back to the city when he looked at the peripheral of the city crowded by hordes of zombies from the outside.
Suddenly he squinted his eyes and saw a flying machine taking off and Shu was able to see the figure of Lady Ren and Little girl among them.
At that moment he also saw the figure of his little aunt within the group, she was the sister of his real mother and is the one who had taken his mother, sister, and father to the central city to live with her.
Where Shu decide to live here since he was not wishing to drop middle school, and they took a promise to return after their education.
He got plenty of money from her but all of them were taken away by a bastard.
The person's name was Kevin and he was a part of a gangster organization, he beat the previous host many times to the point Shu hid whenever in Kevin's sight.
Shu was planning to teach the bastard a good lesson but the quest was more important so, the guy has not received the gratitude from Shu's side yet and if that guy was alive, he had it coming toward him in a few days.
"Who is there!" a shout alerted Shu as he turned back to see a group of soldiers.
When they saw Shu's eyes and reaction, they let the gun down and apologized to him "Sorry, we were just in alert, due to what has happened."
"But there is also something we like to quarry about, make sure to answer truthfully sir. Do you have some fever before coming here around 3 hours?"
"Yeah! I almost died at that." Shu nodded without hiding a thing when a specific guy nodded at them where they let their gun down on him.
"Sorry, about that sir, we were just making sure of the safety and I hope you will forgive us for our rudeness before."
