Chapter 250: Chapter 221: Fusion! The Terror of the Super Energy Warrior
"Wait, I need to drink from the Spring of Life first!" Gao Neng remembered that the last time he fused with Gao Xiaomeng, the energy drain had been immense.
Even just fighting Ye Ying had nearly left him completely exhausted.
But now he was facing thousands of Tier Five and Tier Six enemies, plus twenty high-tier members of the Alien Race Alliance Army. How could he possibly let himself burn out mid-battle?
After this ordeal, Gao Neng’s mindset had subtly changed.
He wouldn’t be stingy anymore!
He wouldn’t hesitate to use what he had.
After all, what good were treasures if he was dead? Since he still had a bottle of the Spring of Life he’d snatched from the Seventh Princess, he might as well drink it all.
Drinking from the Spring of Life...
...was the safest bet.
’Meow! This Queen wants a drink too!’ Gao Xiaomeng yelled in his mind.
"You’re already fused with me. If I drink, you drink!" Gao Neng ignored Gao Xiaomeng, pulling out the small bottle of the Spring of Life and pouring a mouthful down his throat.
GULP!
A mouthful of the Spring of Life went down.
Gao Neng instantly felt the energy throughout his body begin to boil.
’Not bad!’
Just as he was about to take another sip, a voice suddenly rang in his ear.
"Ding! Conditions to break through to Tier Four have been met. Do you wish to force the breakthrough?" a mechanical voice asked.
’A single mouthful of the Spring of Life can force a breakthrough to Tier Four? What the... fuck!’ Gao Neng wanted to curse out loud. After his metamorphosis, he had already been on the verge of a breakthrough.
He’d been wanting to break through to Tier Four for a while.
However, he was still about ten days away from actually making the leap...
But he never expected...
...that a single mouthful of the Spring of Life could shave off ten days of waiting!
Ten days!
In truth, you couldn’t really blame Gao Neng.
He wasn’t a prophet, after all.
No one would deliberately drink the Spring of Life just to save ten days.
The Spring of Life was just too precious.
Especially after his metamorphosis, Gao Neng understood its effects even more clearly.
But now wasn’t the time to dwell on that...
"Break through!" Gao Neng said without hesitation. ’If I can break through to Tier Four and then fuse with Gao Xiaomeng, I’ll have at least a ten percent chance of survival.’
VMM!
Gao Neng felt all the power in his body retract, converging entirely within his ’magnetic core’.
The purplish-red magnetic core swelled in an instant.
Then, the energy violently erupted outward.

’My Vitality went up by 300 points, and my Vigor went up by 40. I really broke through! Plus, my Energy increased from 2019 to 2530!’
’Awesome!’ That was the only word for it. His Spiritual Power had undergone another qualitative change. He could now project his energy outward, and it even mixed with his Spiritual Power.
’So this is my power at Tier Four?!’
"KILL!" Just then, another alien charged at Gao Neng.
"Perfect timing! Sword Drawing Technique, slash!" Without a moment’s hesitation, Gao Neng drew his blade and brought it down on the alien’s head.
SWISH!
A flash of light from the blade streaked past.
A look of disbelief flashed in the Tier Five alien’s eyes.
His head hurt a little.
Then, he felt his vision slowly split down the middle.
BOOM!
The alien’s body burst apart.
It was split clean in two.
’One Slash to kill a Tier Five! I did it!’ Gao Neng’s grip on his blade tightened. Even without fusing with Gao Xiaomeng, he now had the power to fight a Tier Five Early Stage alien.
A Tier Five Early Stage, killed in One Slash!
He wouldn’t even fear a late-stage Tier Five!
Any area his energy could reach was now his domain.
His will became reality!
The feeling was simply sublime.
And unlike before, this time he could feel all of his power, every last bit of it, held firmly in his grasp.
This was power that truly belonged to him!
’Tier Four... I’ve finally broken through!’ Gao Neng thought. This was, at the very least, a small comfort before his impending death.
"Gao Neng, you just killed a Tier Five alien in one slash? You... don’t tell me you broke through?!" Fang Tangtang, who was right beside him, was stunned when she heard his involuntary exclamation.
"Yeah. You should be close, too. Take a sip of the Spring of Life and see if you can break through!" Gao Neng had no intention of keeping it for himself.
Fang Tangtang wasn’t strong in close-quarters combat.
But her overall combat power was certainly not lacking. With her No. 4 Electromagnetic Cannon, even if she couldn’t break through to Tier Four, having a bit more energy would still be a huge benefit.
"One sip is all it takes to break through?" Fang Tangtang immediately took the bottle. Despite her skepticism, she swallowed a mouthful of the Spring of Life.
Soon, a flush spread across Fang Tangtang’s face.
Then, it deepened to purple.
BOOM!
A powerful aura of energy erupted from her.
Fang Tangtang’s face changed from purple back to red.
This was the flush of excitement!
"I, Death God Fang Tangtang, have broken through too!" Fang Tangtang was overjoyed.
’Fang Tangtang actually broke through?! This Spring of Life really is something else. Too bad there’s not much left... In that case, I’ll give the rest to Shen Ning’Er!’ Gao Neng took back the Spring of Life from Fang Tangtang’s hands, then shouted inwardly, ’Gao Xiaomeng, I’ve broken through to Tier Four! Let’s fuse!’
