Chapter 360: Sleep Transcendence - Divine Skill [Nirvana], Congratulations on Defeating the Demon King Xue Jing (4K)



"The Administrative Committee..."

Xue Jing's eyes narrowed in thought.

He recalled hearing about this name from his little sister, A-Meng.

This was the Emergency Management Special Administrative Committee for Abnormal Disasters, also known as the highest leadership of the Sixth Administrative Committee. It consisted of thirteen members, including the Committee Chairman, and almost all of them were influential figures residing in the 'Cang Ting'.

Each term, without exception, the Committee Chairman was also the leader of the organization above, which currently had no one in charge.

In comparison, the Cease War, which belonged to the Special Operations Department, was merely a subordinate organization of the Sixth Administrative Committee.

"So, it's similar to a supervisory group?"

Ning Yuan Tai nodded and said, "This is a common practice within the Special Operations Department, and the White Raven also has this system. Each special operations organization, aside from the Chief Commander, has two key members assigned by the Administrative Committee to 'assist' the commander... This is the official explanation, but in reality, it's to prevent the organization from becoming a one-man show, detached from the committee's control."

"For this purpose, the two key members have terrifyingly high authority... They can command all members of Cease War, except for the commander. Of course, this is just the authority on paper, and not all Cease War members will necessarily obey them."

"The most crucial point is that they have the power to report and impeach the commander to the committee... This is the real reason they can restrain the commander."

Xue Jing's fingers tapped on the armrest of the recliner as he spoke:

"If the key members have the same command authority and can also impeach... then wouldn't the commander be crushed? She wouldn't be able to manage Cease War effectively."

Ning Yuan Tai shook his head,

"It's not that bad. The higher-ups have considered this situation and set many restrictions."

"One is that the key members' orders have a lower priority than the commander's. In case of conflicting orders, the commander's orders take precedence."

"For impeachment, both key members must reach a consensus and jointly file a request to the committee for it to be accepted."

"Usually, unless a special operations organization's commander is particularly dominant, the two key members will be assigned from different factions within the committee."

"Their terms are also short, only two years... This way, the two key members from different factions have conflicting interests, making it difficult for them to unite. With such a short term, they also pose less of a threat to the commander."

"But the power of impeachment is always like a Damocles sword hanging overhead, naturally imposing many restrictions on the commander's management of the organization..."

Xue Jing listened with a growing headache, shaking his head, "Your large organizations are really troublesome."

The martial arts world is much simpler; whoever has the strongest fist rules.

"So, one of these key members wants to kill me... Which one do you think it is?"

Xue Jing asked.

Ning Yuan Tai pondered for a moment, "The current key members of Cease War are Yu Ling Han and Wu Yan Qi... I don't know them very well and haven't interacted much with them."

"However, Wu Yan Qi is a member of the Wu family. Considering your relationship with Miss Wu, I don't think it's him. Using the process of elimination, Yu Ling Han is more likely."

Ning Yuan Tai analyzed seriously.

Xue Jing nodded.

He trusted Wu A-Meng deeply, and if it were someone from her family, they wouldn't harm him. So, it must be this Yu Ling Han...

At this thought, Xue Jing's heart skipped a beat.

'Enemies are not only in front of you; sometimes, they hide behind you. You should look back from time to time and examine carefully...'

'...When the people above were discussing how to deal with you, they mentioned an unexpected backup plan, a fail-safe, a foolproof plan—the Heavens and Earth Web.'

The conversation with Li Sui Sui in the Iron Tree Sea suddenly flashed through Xue Jing's mind.

This was an unexpected intuition.

Xue Jing's eyes lit up as he sank into deep thought.

With his current level of strength, his intuition had been enhanced to an inhuman degree, and any sudden thoughts or flashes of insight were not to be ignored.

'An unexpected source...'

For the Secret Martial Society members to use the phrase 'unexpected,' the person who helped must not be someone Xue Jing had openly provoked in the past.

If he thought about it more carefully, the 'unexpected' helper should also not be someone who 'hadn't provoked him but could still take action against him.'

"It must be someone 'I never expected to help me'..."

He leaned back in the recliner, his hands clasped on his abdomen, his expression unchanged.

"A-Meng wouldn't harm me, and there's no reason for her to do so... But the Wu family's attitude towards me might be different from hers."

Xue Jing thought for a moment and decided not to call Wu A-Meng directly. Instead, he turned to Ning Yuan Tai.

"Yuan Tai, please help me convey a message. I need the commander to do me a favor..."

He instructed Ning Yuan Tai, who nodded in understanding.

"Oh, and Xue, the base leader of the Cease War base wants to meet you. He asked me to inquire about your intentions."

Ning Yuan Tai seemed to hesitate but eventually spoke up.

Xue Jing smiled but remained silent.

Ning Yuan Tai nodded, "I understand."

After Xue Jing's previous incident, he hadn't returned to the Cease War base but had moved to a different location. Ning Yuan Tai had realized the situation, but he still asked, fulfilling his promise to Zhang Jing.

Ning Yuan Tai sighed inwardly.

He had a decent relationship with the base leader, and the latter had taken good care of him during his previous visit to Silver City. Unfortunately, this person lacked ambition.

Sch Jing was a magnanimous person, not one to hold a grudge over such a minor matter... But the olive branch of opportunity to connect with him had been severed.

Shaking his head, he put these thoughts aside and Ning Yuan Tai continued, "Sch Jing, the Black Nest has completed its investigation. Using a Dragon Core satellite as a bargaining chip, they attempted to get close and photograph the Dragon Mother, but they were shattered by the surrounding dragon swarm. However, before they were destroyed, they managed to capture some footage, confirming that the Dragon Mother was showing signs of entering the 'Frenzied Production Period.'"

"Recently, there have been incidents of dragon seeds going berserk and attacking people worldwide... In about one or two months, the Dragon Tide will arrive."

...

Two days later, Sch Jing awoke from his slumber.

His deep blue eyes shone brightly in the dimly lit room, the windows and doors tightly shut. A faint lotus fragrance emanated from his body, filling the entire room.

He opened his panel and took a glance.

[...Sleep Experience +2369]



[Sleep Level Up to Lv10 (328/?) ]



[Sleep Lv10 (Can Transcend)]



[Transcendence Conditions:

First, ???? (Already Satisfied)



Second, Reach Level Lv10 (Already Satisfied)



Third, Required Divinity: 1000]



[Conditions Met, Confirm Transcendence for 1000 Divinity?]



Without hesitation, Sch Jing directly clicked to confirm the transcendence.

The next moment, the Sleep skill on the panel gradually dissolved like ink and water.

A brand new skill slowly emerged in the Transcendental Skill column.

Unmistakably, the first issue of the 619 book!

[Nirvana Lv1 (Transcendental)]



[Upgrade Requirements: Experience 0/10000, Divinity 6012/1000]



"Hmm?"

Sch Jing raised his eyebrows.

He had originally cultivated the Nirvana skill, and the Transcendental skill after Sleep's transcendence was also named Nirvana... Was this a coincidence?

"This skill originally appeared because of cultivating the Nirvana skill... It seems that the conditions for activating transcendence are also related to the Nirvana skill."

"It's probably not a coincidence..."

Sch Jing pondered for a moment.

He vaguely sensed the mechanism behind the panel skills once again... But there were still many aspects that needed verification.

For now, Sch Jing put these thoughts aside and focused on experiencing the effect of the new transcendental skill.

After a while...

"This..."

Sch Jing's expression turned peculiar.

He understood the effect of this skill.

"Could this world actually be a game world?"

"Am I some kind of final boss that players need to go through several stages to defeat?"

Sch Jing scratched his head.

The effect of Nirvana was simple, with two parts: an active effect and a passive effect.

The passive effect was an enhanced version of Sleep, allowing him to recover from injuries, vitality, and energy at an unreasonably rapid rate while asleep. This included health, mana, and stamina bars, as well as any other abnormalities in his body.

Combined with the Nirvana skill, even if he was severely injured or on the verge of death, with missing limbs, a night's sleep would be enough to recover, making it incredibly overpowered.

The active effect was even more outrageous...

Upon activating Nirvana, he would instantly recover from all injuries and remove any abnormal conditions, temporarily and significantly enhancing his physical combat power...

This was essentially like gaining an extra life, and a stronger one at that.

It was like facing a second-stage boss in a game...

Sch Jing already imagined how his future opponents would feel when facing him.

With formidable physical combat power and a bunch of flashy, top-tier skills, along with various Summoned Beasts (Divine Incarnations) assisting him...

After enduring this, he would say, "Not bad, you've earned my serious attention."

Then, he would unleash his full power, transforming into the True Crimson form, and wait for his opponent to deplete his health. "Very well, let me show you my true strength."

After the opponent finally defeated him in the Nirvana state, he would activate the Twin Birth skill, doubling his power! Congratulations, you've defeated the great demon king Sch Jing, but it seems there's a bug, and you need to fight him again...

Sch Jing stuck out his tongue.

"This is too hopeless..."

Even he didn't want to face such an opponent.

How scared was the system administrator that he kept giving him such life-saving skills? It was ridiculous.

"But I like it."

Sch Jing closed the panel with satisfaction and sat up.

With Nirvana, his overall combat power ceiling had risen significantly... He was almost invincible in prolonged battles.

His vitality and energy were already robust, and in prolonged battles, he was several levels above martial artists of the same realm and power. With the ability to fully recover using Nirvana, he could easily overpower them.

Additionally, there was the effect of temporarily enhancing his combat power.

The cost of using the active effect of Nirvana was that he would need to sleep a little longer the next time he slept.

After waking up, he could use it again.

It was almost as if there were no side effects.

"After waiting for the Transcendence of [Health]... I dare not even think about it."

Shaking his head, Sch Jing stretched and moved his body.

"Next, it's time to have some fun..."

He went to the window of his hotel room, opened the curtains, and looked towards the center of the inner ring of the Seventh Urban Circle, the direction of the Extreme Martial Ascension Palace.
