Damn, I Awakened With A Horror System!

...

Seeing the notification in front of him, Leo unfolds a grin on his cold face, chuckling softly before hiding the corpse of the main flesh inside his inventory, wanting to maximize its worth by creating it into a puppet.

With the corpse grade, he should be able to create a puppet with considerable defense, increasing the defensive mechanism of his plantation if done correctly.

It's worth mentioning that after killing the main flesh, Leo's requirements of killing beings by solely relying on cursing decrease by two, allowing the completion of his class job to the next grade to close by.

Unfortunately, it was still far away from him.

Based on his current advancement, increasing the grade of his class job might take a year at minimum. If another horde of beasts attacked the town, the time it would take would probably decrease considerably.

Just thinking of the skills he would receive if his class job elevated to Elite grade, Leo couldn't help but instinctively lick the corner of his lips.

"This was my first time hoping that disaster would knock on my door; the only thing that worried me was that if my strength would be enough."

Although his current strength could easily surpass an elite peak stage of the core formation realm, in the face of a Nascent Soul cultivator, his strength was still inadequate.

Just fighting the roots of the Nascent Soul tree already makes him feel a deep sensation of helplessness, not to mention a Nascent Soul being that wasn't restricted like the tree!

If his guess was right, he could only hold an early stage of the Nascent Soul being for 5 minutes before being forced to flee.

Of course, doing that would surely cost him half of his life... with the probably of him being killed on the spot if the being he faced had a unique and mysterious skill!

...

"The complete domain, "Domain of Strangeness," might allow me to hold for some time, but the consumption of Qi and mental energy isn't something that the current me could bear."

Even if he consumed potions beforehand, Leo had an inkling sensation that he could only use the complete domain for a couple of minutes.

It could be said that the higher the realm of the enemy trap within the domain, the higher the consumption of the spiritual qi and mental energy was.

Not to mention that the complete domain could trap more than one cultivator within, increasing the consumption further based on the enemy's overall realm!

"I need to find and learn skills that could increase the reserve of my spiritual qi. With the medallion of forceful upgrade, their usefulness would surely increase in my hands."

Casting a deep glance toward the hanging corpse above the bone mountain, Leo, not daring to take a risk, immediately went back toward the bland cemetery.

As for skeleton #2, suspected to be within the range of the Nascent Soul tree, since the connection between him and it was still not broken, he assumed that its situation was better than his—with its realm still fluctuating, increasing by a visible amount every second, to the point that it already reaches halfway toward the mid stage of the core formation realm, Leo decided to let it be.

"Regretfully, I couldn't take a peek at the current situation of Skeleton #2, or else the tree would immediately notice my existence... Even my invisibility skill couldn't evade its senses."

...

Upon exiting the forbidden cave, Leo immediately inspected the half-destroyed cemetery, looking at the damage they received with heartache.

Fortunately, after the "Bland Cemetery" scenario advances to 1 and a half stars, it gains the ability to restore itself, slowly reverting to its previous appearance of being gloomy and dilapidated.

The only regretful thing is that it couldn't fix objects and lifeforms outside its jurisdiction, making the dead plantation become its nutrients instead.

"I need to buy new spiritual plants and further increase the defenses of the bland cemetery. Sigh, the five mutated ghouls' strength was still limited."

Gazing at the familiar lean, rotting physique of the mutated ghouls, standing malevolently on all fours in the short distance and continuously releasing a malevolent aura originating from their souls — causing their surroundings to become subjected to depressive oppression.

In addition to their dark pupils that could pry toward one's inner fear, which often stares at moving beings around them — ensuring the safety of the bland cemetery...

Leo couldn't help but unfold a weak smile on his face, feeling gratified that he had this kind of honest worker.

Working heavily for the safety of the bland cemetery, to the point that they didn't even trust the puppets he had created, even though he was essentially their boss.

Feeling curious about their advancement, Leo cast his soul scan toward them, instantly unfolding their information directly to his mind.

[ Life Absorption (Rare lvl 1)- An ability that could passively absorb the life force of the beings they injured, causing their enemy's overall strength to continuously drop until they died.

Note: Only work to beings within 10 meters. If the enemy exited the area of skill, the absorption of life force would immediately halt. ]

"A new rare skill, unfortunately, its area of effects was quite small; with simple maneuver, beings could easily escape the effects of the skill. Find your next read on My Virtual Library Empire

"Still, learning new offensive skills would surely increase their strength."

Nodding his head in satisfaction, Leo then set his gaze toward the system, opening the shop panel before focusing on the uncountable list of items within — planning to buy grade 3 and above spiritual plants and herbs to grow.

With his current realm, buying spiritual plants below grade three would hardly help him; instead, they would only cost him his hard-earned horror points and his precious time.

Since that was the case, it was best if he spent his effort on spiritual plants that were helpful to the core formation and nascent soul realm.
