Invincible through Touching Corpses

Chapter 452: Chapter 450: The Role of Compatibility

"Boss, is something wrong? Are you compatible with those two Divine Demon Bodies?" Little Fatty asked cautiously from the side.

Liu Miaomiao also walked to Lin Xinghai’s side and gently held his hand, her eyes filled with worry.

She had just seen him sense the "Gale Divine Body," then walk over to the "Wind-Fire Demon Body" without a word and sense it as well.

However, Lin Xinghai’s brows had been slightly furrowed the entire time. Seeing this, the others couldn’t help but worry.

Their biggest fear was that Lin Xinghai wasn’t compatible with either of the two Divine Demon Bodies. That would be a terrible situation.

"I’m compatible with both Divine Demon Bodies." Seeing their reactions, Lin Xinghai quickly explained so they wouldn’t worry.

"Phew!" Little Fatty let out a sigh of relief and chuckled. "Boss, you really had me scared there with that expression."

But Liu Miaomiao was still worried. She asked softly, "Ah Xing, if you’re compatible with them, why are you still frowning?"

She was afraid he was just saying that to comfort them.

"It’s because I don’t think these two Divine Demon Bodies are strong enough. Alright, you guys don’t worry. I’ll go look at the others," Lin Xinghai said, waving his hand dismissively before walking toward the other stone slabs.

The three left behind could only look at each other in confusion.

"Are there strong and weak Divine Demon Bodies?" Jin Tong asked quietly.

Liu Miaomiao shook her head. "I don’t know. My instructor never told me."

The instructor she was referring to wasn’t one of the regular teachers, but Wen Qiuying, an expert who was also in the Divine Demon Realm.

"I know a little about this. You can think of the Divine Demon Bodies we cultivate as a special type of Martial Arts. Since Martial Arts vary in strength, it’s only natural that Divine Demon Bodies do as well."

"I have the Hurricane Tornado Superpower, but the reason I didn’t choose a more compatible Wind Magic Body and instead chose the ’Chaos Divine Body’ is because it’s exceptionally powerful among all the Divine Demon Bodies."

Little Fatty paused here before adding in a low voice, "Of course, the ’Chaos Divine Body’ is also compatible with me, and its high Defense Power was another very important factor."

"Is there any specific data? Which ones are more powerful?" Just then, Lin Xinghai, who had already walked off, suddenly reappeared behind Little Fatty and asked.

The sudden question made Little Fatty jump. Seeing it was Lin Xinghai, he patted his plump chest and said irritably, "Boss, don’t sneak up on people like that! You’ll give someone a heart attack."

"As for which Divine Demon Bodies are stronger, I don’t know all the details. After all, our country only has so many Divine Demon Realm experts, so it’s hard to have conducted comprehensive research on every single Divine Demon Body."

As he spoke, Little Fatty opened a file on his wrist-mounted computer and held it out to Lin Xinghai. "This is a rough ranking of Divine Demon Bodies. Of course, it only includes the ones that can be cultivated to the Divine Demon Realm."

Lin Xinghai glanced at the list. It contained most of the well-known Divine Demon Bodies, with the "Chaos Divine Body" ranked first.

"The Divine Demon Realm expert my father hired to help me choose a Divine Demon Body told me that you can’t just pick the most powerful one. Compatibility is more important."

"If you cultivate a Divine Demon Body that repels you, even if you succeed through force, you’ll only be able to unleash 30% of its power at most. For one that neither repels nor is compatible with you, you can only bring out 50% of its power."

"Only with a compatible Divine Demon Body can you unleash 80% of its power," Little Fatty added, sharing another detail the others didn’t know.

"Why can’t you unleash 100% of its power?" Lin Xinghai asked, finding it strange.

"Because on top of compatibility, you also need to have a Special Physique with the same Attributes," Little Fatty explained, glancing enviously at Liu Miaomiao.

He knew that Liu Miaomiao possessed the Wood Element Affinity Physique.

At this, understanding dawned on Liu Miaomiao. "Oh, so that’s why! No wonder Instructor Wen said that probably no one was more suited for the ’Cyan Wood Divine Body’ than me when she introduced it."

As she said this, a thought seemed to strike her, and she looked at Lin Xinghai with concern. She knew that he also had a Special Physique, but it seemed like none of the Divine Demon Bodies were compatible with it.

’In that case, wouldn’t it be impossible for him to unleash one hundred percent of a Divine Demon Body’s power?’

She was about to voice her concern, but Lin Xinghai cut her off. "If that’s the case, I’ll just have to choose the one that’s most suitable for me."

After he finished, Lin Xinghai leaned in and whispered in Liu Miaomiao’s ear, telling her not to mention his so-called "Special Physique."

’After all, it was completely fabricated.’

’The main reason he was choosing a Divine Demon Body now was that there was a chance of awakening a Special Physique when breaking through to the Blood Qi Realm.’

’For others, the probability was minuscule, but with the system’s help, he could amplify that possibility infinitely.’

’If Liu Miaomiao revealed he had a Special Physique now, and then he awakened another one later, it would be impossible to explain.’

’It was better to have Liu Miaomiao keep it a secret for now.’

’As for later, when he actually awakened a Special Physique, he was sure Liu Miaomiao wouldn’t press the issue, even if he just gave her a flimsy excuse.’

Hearing Lin Xinghai’s request, Liu Miaomiao nodded, though she found it a bit strange.

As for Lin Xinghai, he quickly vanished from their sight once more.

He had just been touching the various stone slabs to see which ones were compatible with him and had high potential.

Now that he had Little Fatty’s file, he no longer had to wander around aimlessly; he could screen the options with a clear target in mind.

Before long, he had investigated every Divine Demon Body on Little Fatty’s list.

Among the top 10 Divine Demon Bodies, only the one ranked fifth, the "Black Death Demon Body," was compatible with him.

However, the "Black Death Demon Body" was a mixture of the Ice and Dark Attributes, which had nothing to do with his own abilities.

Even the information from his system—that it would take 55,000 Blood Qi Power to learn by force—was not enough to tempt Lin Xinghai.

It was worth noting that after checking them all, Lin Xinghai had gained a much clearer understanding of the potential of these Divine Demon Bodies.

For instance, the "Cyan Wood Divine Body" that Liu Miaomiao chose was already considered a top-tier one. The vast majority of Divine Demon Bodies only required a little over 40,000 Blood Qi Power to learn by force, and some of the weakest ones only needed 35,000.

In contrast, the top 10 Divine Demon Bodies on Little Fatty’s list all required over 50,000 Blood Qi Power to learn by force.

The "Chaos Divine Body," ranked number one, was especially demanding, requiring 61,000 Blood Qi Power to learn by force.

Unfortunately, Lin Xinghai wasn’t compatible with the "Chaos Divine Body"; otherwise, he might have considered choosing it.

"Well, there’s no other choice. I’ll just have to see if the system can pull through for me," Lin Xinghai muttered to himself as he turned his gaze toward a row of stone slabs in the corner.

These stone slabs were either damaged or were ones that no one had yet successfully used to cultivate to the Divine Demon Realm.
